Mosaic Co. (MOS) agreed to purchase all of the Margaret A. Cargill Foundation and the Anne Ray Charitable Trust's restricted Class A shares in the fertilizer company.
"This agreement demonstrates our confidence in the future and effectively puts the Cargill split-off transaction behind us," said Jim Prokopanko, Mosaic's chief executive. "This is a major step toward our goal of a more efficient balance sheet by mid-2014."
In 2011, privately held agribusiness giant Cargill Inc. said it would give up its majority stake in Mosaic in a transaction valued at about $24.3 billion. The deal was largely driven by the 2006 death of Margaret Cargill, who was the granddaughter of the company founder, and controlled about 17% of the company.
Mosaic agreed to purchase the all the trusts' remaining 43.3 million restricted Class A shares over the next eight months.
In connection with the agreement, the trusts have also agreed to release Mosaic from the contractual obligation to register any remaining common shares in a secondary offering.
Through the 2011 transaction, Ms. Cargill's charitable trusts received about 110 million Mosaic shares, valued at the time around $9.4 billion. Margaret Cargill's trustees had intended to sell their Mosaic shares over the following years.
Mosaic shares closed Friday at $46.79 and were up 1% premarket. The stock is down 17% so far this year.
