Market Outlook and Guidance Agriculture and Retail Markets Global agricultural markets are supported by robust grain and oilseed demand. Risks to global crop production and trade have increased due to geopolitical uncertainty and forecasts indicating El Niño conditions, which are expected to place upside pressure on crop prices. In North America, firming crop prices and a focus on protecting yield potential is expected to support crop input demand in the third quarter of 2026. A faster than average pace of crop development supports the potential for an earlier start to the fall fertilizer application season. In Australia, grower engagement across key cropping regions and strong livestock economics are supporting demand for retail products and services. In Brazil, soybean acreage is expected to moderately increase from the prior year and purchasing activity continues to be influenced by credit availability and affordability. Crop Nutrient Markets Global potash markets remain constructive due to favorable affordability, healthy demand in all major global markets and stable supply relative to other commodities. We have maintained our forecast for global potash shipments of 74 to 77 million tonnes in 2026 as projected shipment levels are expected to be consistent with consumption. Global urea prices have strengthened in the third quarter of 2026 following a decline in the latter half of the second quarter during a seasonal low point for demand that was exacerbated this year due to evolving geopolitical developments. Global nitrogen market fundamentals are expected to remain tight in the second half of 2026, driven by ongoing trade flow disruptions, production outages, elevated energy prices and import demand from key consuming regions such as India and Brazil. Global phosphate market fundamentals continue to be affected by trade flow disruptions, constrained sulfur feedstock availability and elevated costs, which have placed unsustainable pressure on phosphate producer margins and have resulted in reduced global operating rates. 3

Financial and Operational Guidance Retail adjusted EBITDA guidance of $1.75 to $1.95 billion represents structural growth in our downstream business consistent with historical rates. The mid-point of our full-year guidance range assumes high-single digit growth in proprietary products gross margins, strong demand for crop inputs and services in Australia, increased crop nutrient margins per tonne and lower crop nutrient sales volumes compared to the prior year. Potash sales volume guidance was increased to 14.2 to 14.8 million tonnes due to strong demand in key offshore markets and is consistent with our global shipment expectation. Nitrogen sales volume guidance of 9.2 to 9.7 million tonnes is supported by planned reliability improvements and debottlenecking initiatives. The range reflects the completion of planned turnarounds in the third quarter of 2026 and higher ammonia operating rates in the fourth quarter compared to the prior year. Phosphate sales volume guidance of 2.4 to 2.6 million tonnes reflects the benefits of reliability improvement initiatives completed in 2025. Total capital expenditures guidance was lowered to $1.95 to $2.05 billion and reflects a focus on capital efficiency and structurally growing free cash flow. All guidance expectations, including those noted above, are outlined in the table below. Refer to page 33 of our 2025 Annual Report for anticipated fertilizer pricing and natural gas price sensitivities relating to adjusted EBITDA (consolidated) and adjusted net earnings per share. 2026 Guidance Ranges 1 as of August 5, 2026 May 6, 2026 ($ billions, except as otherwise noted) Low High Low High Retail adjusted EBITDA 1.75 1.95 1.75 1.95 Potash sales volumes (million tonnes) 2 14.2 14.8 14.1 14.8 Nitrogen sales volumes (million tonnes) 2 9.2 9.7 9.2 9.7 Phosphate sales volumes (million tonnes) 2 2.4 2.6 2.4 2.6 Depreciation and amortization 2.4 2.5 2.4 2.5 Finance costs 0.65 0.75 0.65 0.75 Effective tax rate on adjusted net earnings (%) 3 24.0 26.0 24.0 26.0 Capital expenditures4 1.95 2.05 2.0 2.1 1 See the “Forward-Looking Statements” section. 2 Manufactured product only. 3 This is a non-GAAP financial measure.

See the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section. 2 All references to per share amounts pertain to diluted net earnings per share, unless otherwise noted. Net earnings and adjusted EBITDA increased in the first half of 2026, primarily due to increased global fertilizer benchmarks, higher Retail earnings and record Potash sales volumes. Net earnings and adjusted EBITDA decreased in the second quarter of 2026, as higher global fertilizer benchmarks were more than offset by lower fertilizer volumes and increased sulfur costs. Segment Results Our discussion of segment results set out on the following pages is a comparison of the results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 to the results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, unless otherwise noted. Retail Three Months Ended June 30 Six Months Ended June 30 ($ millions, except as otherwise noted) 2026 2025 % Change 2026 2025 % Change Sales 8,270 7,959 4 11,910 11,049 8 Cost of goods sold 6,224 5,941 5 9,064 8,345 9 Gross margin 2,046 2,018 1 2,846 2,704 5 Adjusted EBITDA 1 1,131 1,149 (2) 1,239 1,195 4 1 See Note 2 to the interim financial statements. Retail adjusted EBITDA increased in the first half of 2026 due to higher proprietary products gross margins and a strong livestock market in Australia. Retail adjusted EBITDA decreased in the second quarter of 2026 mainly due to lower crop nutrient sales volumes and higher fuel costs.

Crop nutrients sales increased in the second quarter and first half of 2026 due to higher selling prices. Gross margin was relatively flat in the second quarter of 2026, as increased sales of proprietary nutritional products was offset by lower crop nutrient sales volumes, in particular phosphate and nitrogen products. Gross margin increased in the first half of 2026, reflecting increased sales of proprietary nutritional products. Crop protection products sales and gross margin increased in the second quarter and first half of 2026 due to higher sales of proprietary products, supported by increased herbicide sales volumes in the US and earlier grower engagement in Australia. 5

Nitrogen adjusted EBITDA increased in the first half of 2026 due to higher global nitrogen benchmarks and lower natural gas costs. Production from our low-cost North American nitrogen plants was consistent with our plan, which included the successful execution of the largest turnaround in our Carseland facility’s history. Nitrogen adjusted EBITDA decreased in the second quarter of 2026 due to lower sales volumes, partially offset by higher global benchmarks. Other expenses increased in the second quarter and first half of 2026 due to Trinidad safe mode costs incurred in connection with its controlled shutdown and the absence of Profertil equity earnings recognized in the comparable periods in 2025.

See the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section. Sales volumes decreased in the second quarter of 2026, reflecting no production from the Trinidad and New Madrid facilities 4, planned maintenance at Carseland and deferred customer purchases. For the first half of 2026, the impact of these factors was partially offset by higher solutions, nitrates and sulfates sales volumes driven by reliability and debottlenecking initiatives. Net selling price per tonne was higher in the second quarter and first half of 2026 for all major nitrogen products due to stronger global benchmark prices. In the second quarter of 2026, net selling prices reflected the portion of sales volumes established earlier in the year, prior to the onset of geopolitical conflict in the Middle East. Cost of goods sold per tonne was lower in the second quarter and first half of 2026 due to lower overall natural gas costs, partially offset by higher sulfur input costs for ammonium sulfate and turnaround costs. The lower overall natural gas cost reflects a higher proportion of production from our low-cost North American nitrogen plants compared to the same periods in 2025.

Share-based compensation (recovery) expense was a recovery in the second quarter and a lower expense in the first half of 2026 due to a decrease in the fair value of our share-based awards. The fair value of our share-based awards takes into consideration several factors, such as our share price movement, our performance relative to our peer group and our return on invested capital. Other expenses increased in the second quarter and first half of 2026 due to higher restructuring costs associated with portfolio optimization initiatives.

Liquidity and Capital Resources Sources and uses of liquidity We continued to manage our capital in accordance with our current capital allocation strategy. We believe that our internally generated cash flow, supplemented by available borrowings under new or existing financing sources, if necessary, will be sufficient to meet our anticipated capital expenditures, planned growth and development activities, and other cash requirements for the foreseeable future. Refer to the “Capital Structure and Management” section for details on our existing long-term debt and credit facilities.

See the “Other Financial Measures” section. Cash provided by operating activities Decreased in the second quarter of 2026 as higher global fertilizer benchmarks were more than offset by lower fertilizer volumes and increased sulfur costs. Increased in the first half of 2026 due to increased global fertilizer benchmarks, higher Retail earnings and record Potash sales volumes. Cash used in investing activities Increased in the second quarter and first half of 2026, primarily due to the absence of proceeds from the sale of our investment in Sinofert Holdings Limited recognized in the comparable period. In the first half of 2026 capital expenditures increased due to the timing of turnaround activities in Nitrogen as well as an increase in cash used on business acquisitions. Cash used in financing activities Increased in the second quarter and first half of 2026 due to higher commercial paper repayments, partially offset by the issuance of $1.0 billion in senior notes in the second quarter of 2026 with no comparable issuance in the second quarter of 2025. In addition, we repaid senior notes maturing in the second quarter of 2025 with no comparable repayment in the second quarter of 2026. Cash used for dividends and share repurchases Increased in the second quarter and first half of 2026 due to higher share repurchases. 11

Financial Condition Review The following is a comparison of balance sheet categories that are considered material: As at ($ millions, except as otherwise noted) June 30, 2026 December 31, 2025 $ Change % Change Assets Cash and cash equivalents 921 701 220 31 Receivables 8,687 5,675 3,012 53 Inventories 6,164 6,977 (813) (12) Prepaid expenses and other current assets 395 1,396 (1,001) (72) Property, plant and equipment 22,672 22,747 (75) - Liabilities and Shareholders’ Equity Short-term debt 527 873 (346) (40) Trade, other payables and accrued liabilities 9,296 9,309 (13) - Long-term debt, including current portion 10,861 9,863 998 10 Share capital 13,446 13,519 (73) (1) Retained earnings 12,694 12,076 618 5 Explanations for changes in Cash and cash equivalents are in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources - Sources and uses of cash” section. Receivables increased primarily due to the seasonality of Retail sales and a strategic extension of credit terms to our Retail customers. Inventories decreased due to the seasonality of our Retail segment. Our North American inventory levels generally increase at year-end, peak in the first quarter of the year in preparation for the planting and application seasons, and are drawn down in the succeeding quarters. Prepaid expenses and other current assets decreased due to Retail taking delivery of prepaid inventories during the planting and application season in North America. Short-term debt decreased due to repayments of, and lower draws on, our credit facilities due to the issuance of $1.0 billion of senior notes. Trade, other payables and accrued liabilities decreased due to lower customer prepayments in North America as Retail customers took delivery of prepaid sales, as well as settlement of our Retail supplier financing arrangements in 2026 that were entered into in the fourth quarter of 2025. This was partially offset by higher income tax payable as our tax provision exceeded payments. Long-term debt, including current portion, increased due to the issuance of $1.0 billion of senior notes in the second quarter of 2026, the net proceeds of which were used to pay short-term debt. 12

Capital Structure and Management Principal debt instruments As part of the normal course of business, we closely monitor our liquidity position. We use a combination of cash generated from operations and short-term and long-term debt to finance our operations. We continually evaluate various financing arrangements and may seek to engage in transactions from time to time when market and other conditions are favorable. We were in compliance with our debt covenants and did not have any changes to our credit ratings for the six months ended June 30, 2026. Capital structure (debt and equity) ($ millions) June 30, 2026 December 31, 2025 Short-term debt 527 873 Current portion of long-term debt 1,434 513 Current portion of lease liabilities 366 346 Long-term debt 9,427 9,350 Lease liabilities 974 937 Shareholders’ equity 25,938 25,365 Commercial paper, credit facilities and other debt We have a total facility limit of approximately $7,310 million comprised of several credit facilities available in the jurisdictions where we operate. In North America, we have a commercial paper program, which is limited to the undrawn amount under our $4,500 million unsecured revolving term credit facility and excess cash invested in highly liquid securities. As at June 30, 2026, we utilized $540 million of our total facility limit, which includes $419 million of commercial paper outstanding. During the first half of 2026, we extended the maturity of our accounts receivable purchase facility from March 6, 2026 to March 31, 2028 and entered into a $69 million uncommitted revolving demand facility. As at June 30, 2026, $231 million in letters of credit were outstanding and committed, with $258 million of remaining credit available under our letter of credit facilities. Our long-term debt consists primarily of notes and debentures. See the “Capital Structure and Management” section of our 2025 Annual Report for information on balances, rates and maturities for our notes and debentures. During the first half of 2026, we issued $500 million of 4.850 percent senior notes due May 29, 2031 and $500 million of 5.350 percent senior notes due May 29, 2036. See Note 6 to the interim financial statements.

See Note 2 to the interim financial statements. Accounting Policies and New IFRS Standards Significant accounting policies are disclosed in our 2025 Annual Report and have been consistently applied for the six months ended June 30, 2026, except as described below. Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7, Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7, Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments , were adopted effective January 1, 2026, the required adoption date. The impact was not material. On initial adoption, there was an adjustment of $(13) million to opening cash and cash equivalents as at January 1, 2026, which has been reflected in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2026. Critical Accounting Estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect reported assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We have discussed the development, selection and application of our key accounting policies, and the critical accounting estimates and assumptions they involve, with the Audit Committee of the Board. Our critical accounting estimates are discussed on pages 64 to 65 of our 2025 Annual Report. There were no material changes to our critical accounting estimates for the three months ended June 30, 2026. Controls and Procedures Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”), as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and National Instrument 52-109 Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings . ICFR is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS. Any system of ICFR, no matter how well designed, has inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. There has been no change in our ICFR during the three months ended June 30, 2026, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our ICFR. 14

Non-GAAP Financial Measures We use both IFRS measures and certain non-GAAP financial measures to assess performance. Non-GAAP financial measures are financial measures disclosed by the Company that: (a) depict historical or expected future financial performance, financial position or cash flow of the Company; (b) with respect to their composition, exclude amounts that are included in, or include amounts that are excluded from, the composition of the most directly comparable financial measure disclosed in the primary financial statements of the Company; (c) are not disclosed in the financial statements of the Company; and (d) are not a ratio, fraction, percentage or similar representation. Non-GAAP ratios are financial measures disclosed by the Company that are in the form of a ratio, fraction, percentage or similar representation that has a non-GAAP financial measure as one or more of its components, and that are not disclosed in the financial statements of the Company. These non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios are not standardized financial measures under IFRS and, therefore, are unlikely to be comparable to similar financial measures presented by other companies. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios provide transparent and useful supplemental information to help investors evaluate our financial performance, financial condition and liquidity using the same measures as management. These non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. The following section outlines our non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios, their compositions, and why management uses each measure. It also includes reconciliations to the most directly comparable IFRS measures. Except as otherwise described herein, our non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios are calculated on a consistent basis from period to period and are adjusted for specific items in each period, as applicable. As additional non-recurring or unusual items arise in the future, we generally exclude these items in our calculations. Adjusted EBITDA (Consolidated) Most directly comparable IFRS financial measure: Net earnings (loss). Definition: Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net earnings (loss) before finance costs, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation and foreign exchange gain/loss (net of related derivatives). We also adjust this measure for the following other income and expenses that are excluded when management evaluates the performance of our day-to-day operations: certain integration and restructuring related costs, impairment or reversal of impairment of assets, gain or loss on sale of certain businesses and investments, asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) and accrued environmental costs (“ERL”) related to our non-operating sites, and loss related to financial instruments in Argentina. Why we use the measure and why it is useful to investors: It is not impacted by long-term investment and financing decisions, but rather focuses on the performance of our day-to-day operations. It provides a measure of our ability to service debt and to meet other payment obligations and as a component of employee remuneration calculations.

Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Net Earnings Per Share Most directly comparable IFRS financial measure: Net earnings (loss) and diluted net earnings (loss) per share. Definition: Adjusted net earnings and related per share information are calculated as net earnings (loss) before share-based compensation and foreign exchange gain/loss (net of related derivatives), net of tax. We also adjust this measure for the following other income and expenses (net of tax) that are excluded when management evaluates the performance of our day-to-day operations: certain integration and restructuring related costs, impairment or reversal of impairment of assets, gain or loss on sale of certain businesses and investments, gain or loss on early extinguishment of debt or on settlement of derivatives due to discontinuance of hedge accounting, asset retirement obligations and accrued environmental costs related to our non-operating sites, loss related to financial instruments in Argentina, change in recognition of tax losses and deductible temporary differences related to impairments and certain changes to tax declarations. We generally apply the annual forecasted effective tax rate to specific adjustments during the year, and at year-end, we apply the actual effective tax rate. Why we use the measure and why it is useful to investors: Focuses on the performance of our day-to-day operations and is used as a component of employee remuneration calculations. Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 ($ millions, except as otherwise noted) Increases (Decreases) Post-Tax Per Diluted Share Increases (Decreases) Post-Tax Per Diluted Share Net earnings attributable to equity holders of Nutrien 1,214 2.53 1,345 2.80 Adjustments: Share-based compensation (recovery) expense (41) (32) (0.07) 75 56 0.12 Foreign exchange loss, net of related derivatives 13 8 0.02 18 18 0.03 ARO/ERL related expenses (income) for non-operating sites 11 9 0.02 (17) (13) (0.03) Restructuring costs 66 52 0.11 82 68 0.14 Impairment of assets recorded in other income and expenses - - - 30 22 0.05 Sub-total adjustments 49 37 0.08 188 151 0.31 Adjusted net earnings 1,251 2.61 1,496 3.11 Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 ($ millions, except as otherwise noted) Increases (Decreases) Post-Tax Per Diluted Share Increases (Decreases) Post-Tax Per Diluted Share Net earnings attributable to equity holders of Nutrien 1,221 2.50 1,232 2.52 Adjustments: Share-based compensation expense 49 37 0.08 91 68 0.14 Foreign exchange loss, net of related derivatives 22 17 0.04 29 23 0.05 ARO/ERL related (income) expenses for non-operating sites (2) (1) - 3 3 - Restructuring costs 21 17 0.03 22 18 0.04 Sub-total adjustments 90 70 0.15 145 112 0.23 Adjusted net earnings 1,291 2.65 1,344 2.75 19

Effective Tax Rate on Adjusted Net Earnings Effective tax rate on adjusted net earnings guidance is a forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure as it includes adjusted net earnings, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. It is provided to assist readers in understanding our expected financial results. Effective tax rate on adjusted net earnings guidance excludes certain items that management is aware of that permit management to focus on the performance of our operations (see the Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Net Earnings Per Share section for items generally adjusted). We do not provide a reconciliation of this forward-looking measure to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS because a meaningful or accurate calculation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort due to unknown variables, including the timing and amount of certain reconciling items, and the uncertainty related to future results. These unknown variables may include unpredictable transactions of significant value that may be inherently difficult to determine without unreasonable efforts. The probable significance of such unavailable information, which could be material to future results, cannot be addressed. Gross Margin Excluding Depreciation and Amortization Per Tonne – Manufactured Product Most directly comparable IFRS financial measure: Gross margin. Definition: Gross margin per tonne less depreciation and amortization per tonne for manufactured products. Reconciliations are provided in the “Segment Results” section. Why we use the measure and why it is useful to investors: Focuses on the performance of our day-to-day operations, which excludes the effects of items that primarily reflect the impact of long-term investment and financing decisions. Potash Controllable Cash Cost of Product Manufactured (“COPM”) Per Tonne Most directly comparable IFRS financial measure: Cost of goods sold (“COGS”) for the Potash segment. Definition: Total Potash COGS excluding depreciation and amortization expense included in COPM, royalties, natural gas costs and carbon taxes, change in inventory, and other adjustments, divided by potash production tonnes. Why we use the measure and why it is useful to investors: To assess operational performance. Potash controllable cash COPM excludes the effects of production from other periods and the impacts of our long-term investment decisions, supporting a focus on the performance of our day-to-day operations. Potash controllable cash COPM also excludes royalties and natural gas costs and carbon taxes, which management does not consider controllable, as they are primarily driven by regulatory and market conditions. Three Months Ended June 30 Six Months Ended June 30 ($ millions, except as otherwise noted) 2026 2025 2026 2025 Total COGS – Potash 446 440 868 820 Change in inventory 1 (58) 9 (51) Other adjustments 1 (4) (8) (9) (21) COPM 443 374 868 748 Depreciation and amortization in COPM (183) (147) (354) (292) Royalties in COPM (27) (23) (53) (42) Natural gas costs and carbon taxes in COPM (12) (10) (25) (22) Controllable cash COPM 221 194 436 392 Production volumes (tonnes – thousands) 3,996 3,531 7,656 6,820 Potash controllable cash COPM per tonne 55 55 57 57 1 Other adjustments include unallocated production overhead that is recognized as part of cost of goods sold but is not included in the measurement of i nventory and changes in inventory balances. 20

The following section provides an explanation of the composition of those supplementary financial measures, if not previously provided. Sustaining capital expenditures: Represents capital expenditures that are required to sustain operations at existing levels and include major repairs and maintenance and plant turnarounds. Investing capital expenditures: Represents capital expenditures related to significant expansions of current operations or to create cost savings (synergies). Investing capital expenditures exclude capital outlays for business acquisitions and equity-accounted investees. Mine development and pre-stripping capital expenditures: Represents capital expenditures that are required for activities to open new areas underground and/or develop a mine or ore body to allow for future production mining and activities required to prepare and/or access the ore, i.e., removal of an overburden that allows access to the ore. Cash used for dividends and share repurchases: Calculated as dividends paid to Nutrien’s shareholders plus repurchase of common shares as reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. This measure is useful as it represents return of cash to shareholders. 22

Unaudited Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements As at and for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 Note 1 Basis of presentation Nutrien Ltd. (collectively with its subsidiaries, “Nutrien”, “we”, “us”, “our” or “the Company”) is a leading global provider of crop inputs and services. We operate a world-class network of production, distribution and ag retail facilities that positions us to efficiently serve the needs of farmers. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements (“interim financial statements”) are based on International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, “Interim Financial Reporting”. The accounting policies and methods of computation used in preparing these interim financial statements are materially consistent with those used in the preparation of our 2025 annual audited consolidated financial statements with the exception of the amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7, Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments , which were adopted effective January 1, 2026 (refer to Note 9). These interim financial statements include the accounts of Nutrien and its subsidiaries; however, they do not include all disclosures normally provided in annual audited consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our 2025 annual audited consolidated financial statements. These interim financial statements are presented in millions of US dollars, unless otherwise indicated, which is the functional currency of Nutrien and the majority of its subsidiaries. Certain immaterial 2025 figures have been reclassified in Note 2 Segment information. In management’s opinion, the interim financial statements include all adjustments necessary to fairly present such information in all material respects. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for any other interim period or the fiscal year. These interim financial statements were authorized by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors for issue on August 5, 2026. Note 2 Segment information We have four reportable operating segments: Retail, Potash, Nitrogen and Phosphate. Our downstream Retail segment distributes crop nutrients, crop protection products, seed and merchandise, and provides agronomic application services and solutions, including the services offered through Nutrien Financial. Retail also manufactures and distributes proprietary products and provides services directly to farmers through a network of retail locations in North America, Australia and South America. Our upstream Potash, Nitrogen and Phosphate segments are differentiated by the chemical nutrient contained in the products that each segment produces and are supported by midstream activities, which include the global sales, freight, transportation and distribution of our products, which are reported within these segments, respectively. Potash freight, transportation and distribution reported costs only apply to our North American potash sales volumes. Sales reported under our Corporate and Others segment relates to our non-core businesses. EBITDA presented in the succeeding tables is calculated as net earnings (loss) before finance costs, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Seasonality in our business results from increased demand for products during planting season. Crop input sales are generally higher in the spring and fall application seasons. Crop input inventories are normally accumulated leading up to each application season. Our cash collections generally occur after the application season is complete, while customer prepayments made to us are typically concentrated in December and January and inventory prepayments paid to our suppliers are typically concentrated in the period from November to January. Feed and industrial sales are more evenly distributed throughout the year. 27

Unaudited In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) reassessed our product groupings and determined that the performance of our Purchase for Resale business should be evaluated as part of the Corporate and Others segment. It had previously been presented in our Nitrogen segment. The Purchase for Resale business focuses primarily on sales to international customers. Purchased product that remains in upstream is primarily purchases of inventory to satisfy sales contracts that we cannot fulfill with our manufactured products. The CODM concluded this change was appropriate based on the nature and strategic alignment of purchase for resale activities. Comparative amounts for the Corporate and Others and Nitrogen segments were reclassified. As a result of the reclassification, the Corporate and Others segment reflected the following increases and the Nitrogen segment reflected the corresponding decreases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

Unaudited Note 8 Related party transactions We sell potash outside Canada and the US exclusively through Canpotex. Our total revenue is recognized at the time product is loaded for shipping, at the amount received from Canpotex representing proceeds from their sale of potash, less net costs of Canpotex. The receivable outstanding from Canpotex arose from sale transactions described above. It is unsecured and bears no interest. Any credit losses held against this receivable are expected to be negligible. Canpotex sells potash to buyers, including Nutrien, in export markets pursuant to term and spot contracts at agreed- upon prices. Purchases from Canpotex for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were $58 million (2025 – $20 million) and the six months ended June 30, 2026 were $122 million (2025 – $77 million).

The amendments clarified the timing of recognition and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities. The adoption resulted in a change in the accounting policy relating to the timing of the derecognition of certain financial assets and financial liabilities, such that derecognition now occurs upon settlement. The amendments were applied retrospectively without restatement of prior periods in accordance with the transitional provisions other than, on initial adoption, there was an adjustment of $(13) million to opening cash and cash equivalents as at January 1, 2026, which has been reflected in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2026. 34
