This reduced EBITDA during the three months ended December 31, 2011, due to lost production and $3.0 million in turnaround expenses.<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on the results for the period, D. Hunt Ramsbottom, CEO of RNF, stated, \u201cRentech Nitrogen reported exceptional results which benefitted from strong product pricing. We continue to see robust fundamentals driving nitrogen demand, especially in our core market of the Mid Corn Belt region. We expect natural gas prices to remain at low levels which will continue to positively impact product margins.\u201d Mr. Ramsbottom added, \u201cWe implemented several production efficiency-related improvements at the plant during the last bi-annual turnaround, which resulted in record production rates and lower natural gas usage. We are focused on maximizing margins and maintaining high on-stream times at the plant.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>More Posts by this author<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock-market-news\/recent-events\/business-news\/gold-prices-end-marginally-lower\/22936\"><br \/>\nGold Prices End Marginally Lower<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock-market-news\/market-updates\/stocks-end-on-a-mixed-note-24\/22935\"><br \/>\nStocks End on a Mixed Note<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock-market-news\/recent-events\/business-news\/gold-remain-in-red-in-mid-day-trading-silver-prices-marginally-higher\/22906\"><br \/>\nGold Remain in Red in Mid-Day Trading; Silver Prices Marginally Higher<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock-market-news\/market-updates\/stocks-struggle-for-direction-10\/22905\"><br \/>\nStocks Struggle for Direction<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock-market-news\/recent-events\/business-news\/penn-national-gaming-penn-agreement-with-state-of-ohio-regarding-the-relocation-of-its-two-racetracks\/22901\"><br \/>\nPenn National Gaming &#8211; PENN &#8211; Agreement with State of Ohio Regarding the Relocation of Its Two Racetracks<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock-market-news\/recent-events\/business-news\/valhi-inc-vhi-3-for-1-split-of-its-common-stock\/22898\"><br \/>\nValhi, Inc. &#8211; VHI &#8211; 3-for-1 split of its common stock<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock-market-news\/recent-events\/business-news\/sanofi-sny-to-acquire-pluromed\/22896\"><br \/>\nSanofi &#8211; SNY &#8211; To Acquire Pluromed<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr>\n<table style=\"border:none;margin:0;\">\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding:5px;vertical-align:top;\" valign=\"top\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www2.thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock-market-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5.jpg\" alt=\"edliston\" width=\"125\" height=\"125\" class=\"photo\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:5px;vertical-align:top;\" valign=\"top\">\n<div style=\"font-size:11pt;\"><b>Post Written By: Ed Liston <\/b><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size:10pt;\">\n<p>Ed Liston is a senior contributing editor at TheStockMarketWatch.com.
