Yara reports third-quarter EBITDA excluding special items(1) of USD 585 million
compared with USD 396 million in third quarter 2023. Net income was USD 286
million compared with USD 2 million a year earlier.

Third-quarter 2024 highlights:

* EBITDA excluding special items(1) of 585 MUSD
* Strong premium(1) generation
* All-time high production performance(2)
* Returns improving but still below target, cost and portfolio optimization
continues

"Yara is delivering all-time high production performance and strong premiums
this quarter, a testament to the robustness of our operations and the value of
our core business," said Svein Tore Holsether, President and Chief Executive
Officer.

Sustainable profitability in core operations and value-accretive growth
opportunities are both critical to enable a fit-for-future Yara. While Yara has
successfully navigated recent volatility by focusing on operational continuity,
recent returns have been below satisfactory levels. Yara is therefore taking
action to improve profitability, including a stricter prioritization towards
core operations and high-return assets, while scaling back non-core and lower-
return activities. This includes performing an asset portfolio review with the
aim to prioritize and optimize its portfolio to ensure a fit-for-future asset
base.

"Returns are improving, and I am confident that we will succeed with the
necessary changes to ensure sustainable profitability and increase shareholder
returns through our sharpened focus on our core operations and value-accretive
growth, " said Holsether.
