This quarter demonstrated a mixed financial performance, showcasing both progress and areas needing attention. ICL reported a total revenue of $1.735 billion for the quarter, which, while representing a sequential improvement of 3%, is lower compared to the same period in the previous year. Adjusted EBITDA also showed a sequential rise, settling at $362 million.
