Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Mosaic has reported improved revenue, EBITDA, FCF and Payout Ratio vs Y2018, and the share price has responded positively. Looking past EBITDA, however, I see that income has not just declined but reversed; what is it about the former metrics that leads the market to ignore the latter? Is the idea, here, that income will go up and down as the company makes investments , but as long as the company is growing then per-year income doesn't matter so much?
