Note regarding non-GAAP financial measures The company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Management believes that EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, and free cash flow yield, which are non-GAAP financial measures, provide additional meaningful information regarding the company's performance and financial strength. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, and free cash flow yield included in this presentation may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.Reconciliations of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, and free cash flow yield to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided in the tables accompanying this presentation. EBITDA is defined as net earnings attributable to common stockholders plus interest expense - net, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Other adjustments include the elimination of loan fee amortization that is included in both interest and amortization, and the portion of depreciation that is included in noncontrolling interests. The company has presented EBITDA because management uses the measure to track performance and believes that it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the industry. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted with the selected items included in EBITDA as summarized in the tables accompanying this presentation. The company has presented adjusted EBITDA because management uses adjusted EBITDA, and believes it is useful to investors, as a supplemental financial measure in the comparison of year-over-year performance. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, as stated in the consolidated statements of cash flows, reduced by capital expenditures and distributions to noncontrolling interests. Free cash flow yield is defined as free cash flow divided by market value of equity (market cap). The company has presented free cash flow and free cash flow yield because management uses these measures and believes they are useful to investors, as indications of the strength of the company and its ability to generate cash and to evaluate the company’s cash generation ability relative to its industry competitors. 3

CF Investment Thesis • Nitrogen demand growth driven by: – population growth and increased protein consumption per capita for agricultural applications global GDP plus growth in emissions abatement for industrial applications – • Net new nitrogen capacity growth (new construction minus capacity closures) is below projected demand growth for the foreseeable future (~4 years based on time required to build new capacity), tightening the global supply and demand balance • CF is on the low end of the global cost curve due to its access to low-cost and plentiful North American natural gas Global price driven by marginal producers tied to higher-priced LNG, oil-linked natural gas and Chinese anthracite coal • • • • North America is dependent on nitrogen imports to meet demand Price is set by the last imported ton bid into the region CF’s manufacturing and distribution network, along with its logistics capabilities, allow it to capture the significant margin between CF’s cost and that of the global high-cost producer (including logistics to move products into consumption region) 6 Primarily Operate in Import-Dependent Region Advantaged Position on Global Cost Curve Tightening Global Supply and Demand Balance Consistent Demand Growth

Global market overview • Nitrogen industry fundamentals expected to be positive in both the near and longer term Global demand growth for nitrogen over the next four years expected to outpace net capacity additions given the limited number of facilities currently under construction around the world with none in N. America Near-term, demand for nitrogen in N. America should be strong due to the impact of adverse planting and growing conditions in the US in 2019, creating a strong price incentive for growers in the US to increase planted corn acres significantly over the next two seasons Demand for urea from India and Brazil expected to remain strong over the next two years Through June 2019, urea imports to India were 3.5 million metric tons, an increase of 11 percent over the prior year; urea imports to Brazil for the full year 2019 are expected to increase Chinese coal-based nitrogen complexes expected to remain the global marginal urea producer Net Chinese-produced urea exports are likely to be in a range of 1-3 million metric tons annually, with higher nitrogen prices bidding in additional Chinese export tons when urea supply is needed worldwide • • • • • • 16
Corn futures in 2020 prices and farm economics favor more corn planting U.S. Soy/Corn Price Ratio $4.50 • Farm economics strongly favor corn planting in 2019 due to the low soy/corn price ratio: ‒ Soybean price pressure from: o U.S./China trade dispute o African Swine Fever o Stocks-to-use ratio for U.S. soybeans expected at ~15% in 2019, approximately twice the five-year average ‒ U.S. corn stocks-to-use ratio is expected at ~12%, the second lowest since 2013 $4.00 $3.50 $3.00 $7.50 $8.50 $9.50 Nov.

America that limited supply at some inland locations Cost of sales for 1H 2019 increased slightly compared to 1H 2018 due primarily to higher freight and realized natural gas costs, partially offset by lower plant maintenance costs As of June 30, 2019, the 12-month rolling average recordable incident rate was 0.60 incidents per 200,000 work hours • • • • (1) First half and second quarter 2019 net earnings attributable to common stockholders include an after-tax gai n of $35 m i l l i on on the s al e of the c om pany ’ s P i ne B end dry bulk storage and logistics facility in Minnesota.

CF EBITDA sensitivity table Table illustrates the resiliency of CF Industries’ business model across a broad range of industry conditions EBITDA Sensitivity to Natural Gas and Urea Prices(1)(2) $ billions CF Realized North American Natural Gas Cost ($/MMBtu) Source: CF Industries (1) The table was created by using 2018 adjusted EBITDA of $1,403 million, 2018 sales volumes of approximately 19.3 million product tons and gas consumption of approximately 340 million MMBtus. Changes in product prices and gas costs were not applied to the CHS minority interest or industrial contracts where CF Industries’ is naturally hedged against changes in product prices and gas costs. While the table above presents CF’s realized North American natural gas cost, CF Fertilisers UK’s gas cost and volumes were included in the analysis. As with North America, CF Fertilisers UK’s gas cost was sensitized in $0.25/MMBtu increments. See appendix for 2018 EBITDA reconciliation. Assumes that a $25 per ton change in urea price is equivalent to a $17.39 per ton change in UAN price, $18.47 per ton change in AN price, a $44.57 per ton change in ammonia price, and a $10.60 per ton change in the price of the Other segment.
