    Why don't you be more honest in your headline and state that it was due to one time maintenance turnaround which it was. And put in the other details that they actually beat on Q4 eps and revenue and the min div increase is 19%...PLUS uan prices are up from Q4 by almost $100/ton - higher than last year and ammonia prices are near $900/ton. Also UAN guidance last year was 1.70 to 1.80 and they beat with 1.81. So highly likely they will be closer to the 2.45 or 35% hike. Or that q4 19.2 cent div was a one off and is now back to 53.75 cents min.

    KGaider has it right, the headline does not begin to tell an accurate story. The company has just finished a 50% production expansion project, and is currently ramping up production, reaching maximum production capacity some time in March. They also beat analysts estimates........where is that in the article from MF? Better to say nothing than to get it wrong!
