  • Operating loss $(420)M in 2025 vs operating income $1.92B in 2024; EBITDA $1.13B vs $3.46B, driven by impairments and margin compression
  • Best segment: O&P-EAI EBITDA improved to $(457)M from $(991)M (+54%), aided by lower impairments; worst: APS EBITDA $(651)M vs $54M in 2024 due to $782M impairments

Risk Factors

  • Regulatory risk from European oligomers divestiture, expected to close Q2 2026, may cause operational disruption and asset impairment charges
  • Geopolitical exposure in Middle East and South America risks raw material supply disruptions due to political instability and civil unrest
  • Single or limited supplier dependence for raw materials/utilities in U.S. Gulf Coast heightens vulnerability to operational interruptions and increased costs
