Compass Minerals International Inc's Comment on Competition and Industry Peers

The company operates in highly competitive markets. In North America, competitors include large national and international companies, as well as smaller regional salt producers. Several salt importers also affect the East and West Coast markets, where the company has limited presence. In the UK, two competitors serve the highway deicing salt market, located in Northern England and Northern Ireland. The salt market is a commodity market with limited product differentiation and low barriers to entry, particularly in consumer and industrial segments. The company’s competitive advantages include strategic geographic locations, assets such as the scale and deep-water port of the Goderich Mine, and a robust distribution network.
