Exhibit 99.1
6/3/2026
Intrepid Potash Announces Expansion of Common Stock Repurchase Plan
Intrepid Potash, Inc. (“Intrepid”, “the Company”,
“we”, “us”, or “our”) (NYSE:IPI) today announced that its Board of Directors (“Board”)
approved an increase in the amount authorized for repurchasing shares of the Company’s common stock under the Company’s existing
share repurchase program. The Board expanded the authorized amount to $50 million, an increase from the $35 million the program originally
authorized in February 2022, which has approximately $13 million remaining.
The decision to increase the amount for share repurchases reflects
the Board’s ongoing review of Intrepid’s capital allocation strategy, as well as the Company’s improving operating performance
and strengthened balance sheet.
In addition to the increased amount allocated to share repurchases,
and the Company’s continued investment in our core assets, including high-return projects to improve operating efficiencies, reduce
costs, and extend mine life, the Board and management are evaluating a range of possible capital allocation initiatives, including:
· Organic growth initiatives closely aligned with the Company’s core operations;
· Inorganic opportunities that complement Intrepid’s core business; and
· Additional potential returns of capital to shareholders while maintaining
substantial liquidity and a strong balance sheet
“Increasing our share repurchase authorization to $50 million
reflects our confidence in Intrepid’s long-term potential and commitment to our shareholders,” said Kevin Crutchfield, Intrepid’s
Chief Executive Officer. “We also remain excited about various organic growth projects across the Intrepid portfolio and potential
strategic opportunities that could create meaningful value for Intrepid shareholders. We are committed to remaining thoughtful and disciplined
as we evaluate possible capital allocation opportunities and will update investors on our thoughts and progress as our evaluation of our
strategic priorities continues to advance.”
Under the increased authorization, the Company may repurchase up to
$50 million of its outstanding common stock from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing,
volume, and nature of any share repurchases will be at the Company’s sole discretion and will be dependent on market conditions,
share price, liquidity, applicable securities laws, compliance with or any limitations under the Company’s revolving credit facility,
and other factors. The program does not oblige the Company to repurchase any specific dollar amount or number of shares and may be suspended,
modified, or discontinued at any time.
