Current report
Net (loss) income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was $(83.0) million and $1.4 million, respectively. The decrease in net (loss) income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily due to lower operating results across our Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls and Winchester business segments, partially offset by improved operating results from our Epoxy segment. Diluted net (loss) income per share was $(0.73) for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $0.01 in the prior year period, a decrease of $0.74 per share.
Current report
Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls reported segment loss of $(44.5) million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to segment income of $78.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in segment results from the comparable prior year period was primarily due to lower pricing and volumes, higher raw material costs, primarily natural gas and electrical power costs, partially offset by lower operating costs. The first quarter 2026 segment loss also included a $36.1 million charge associated with legacy litigation matters.
Current report
On February 19, 2026, we executed an amendment to our existing $1,850.0 million senior credit facility (Senior Secured Credit Facility) which, among other things, modified the financial covenants to be less restrictive and incorporated guarantees and collateral by certain of our domestic subsidiaries. The maturity date for the Senior Secured Credit Facility remained March 14, 2030.
Current report
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we had net borrowings of $170.3 million, with $160.0 million borrowed under our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility (defined below), which was partially used to satisfy the $109.7 million remaining principal amortization payments under the Secured Term Loan Facility (defined below).
Current report
Tariffs and trade flows continue to influence the demand outlook amid varying market responses. Following the February 20, 2026, U.S. Supreme Court ruling that struck down broad emergency‑based tariffs issued under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), the U.S. administration has begun recalibrating its tariff strategy through other legal alternatives, including expanded use of Section 301 investigations. Following the recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling, certain importers have begun pursuing tariff‑recovery claims related to previously assessed duties. While we continue to monitor these developments, the financial impact of tariff‑recovery opportunities or obligations has not been significant to our businesses. We also continue to monitor the direct and indirect impact from tariffs on goods being imported into the United States and the competitiveness of our export products in markets that implement retaliatory tariffs.
Current report
Additionally, although Winchester procures the majority of metals domestically, we have realized price inflation that we believe is partially tariff‑driven for the domestic supply of copper, steel, and tungsten products. Winchester has also experienced secondary effects from suppliers consuming tariff‑impacted metals in their end products. Winchester continuously monitors market trends and works to mitigate those and other cost increases through economies of scale in procurement and efficient sourcing practices.
Current report
The recent escalation of conflict in the Middle East, including escalating tensions with Iran, and the international response to these developments, has increased the level of economic and political uncertainty across global markets. The conflict has contributed to heightened volatility in global supply and demand fundamentals, particularly within energy‑linked and regionally sensitive markets. Sanctions and policy actions from the U.S. and other governments continue to evolve, and the broader implications of the conflict on global economic conditions remain fluid. We continue to closely monitor the changing environment. As of now, the direct impact on our operations has not been significant; however, we are unable to determine the future impact that the conflict and the corresponding global response may have on our business.
Current report
Selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $145.0 million, an increase of $44.0 million from the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to higher legal and legal-related settlement expenses of $37.2 million, which includes a $36.1 million charge associated with legacy litigation matters and higher stock-based compensation costs of $10.0 million, which includes mark-to-market adjustments. Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales was 9% and 6% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Current report
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 included $0.2 million and $3.3 million for the write-off of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs associated financing transactions. Without these items, interest expense decreased $2.2 million from March 31, 2025 primarily due to a lower level of debt outstanding and lower average interest rates.
Current report
The Company’s effective tax rate fluctuates from period to period based on several factors, including the geographic mix of earnings, the level of income or loss relative to available tax attributes, the recognition of valuation allowances in certain jurisdictions, and discrete tax items. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recorded a loss before income taxes of $(118.3) million and an associated income tax benefit of $35.3 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 29.8%. The income tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily attributable to the loss before income taxes for the period, as well as Inflation Reduction Act credits recognized during the period. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded income before income taxes of $2.1 million and an associated income tax provision of $0.9 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 42.9%. The income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was primarily attributable to income before taxes for the period, along with a change in tax contingencies recognized during the period.
Current report
Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls sales for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $756.9 million compared to $924.5 million for the same period in 2025, a decrease of $167.6 million, or 18%. The sales decrease was due to lower sales volumes, primarily as a result of lower trading volumes associated with Blue Water Alliance, and lower pricing.
Current report
Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment loss was $(44.5) million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to segment income of $78.3 million for the same period in 2025, a decrease of $122.8 million. The decrease in segment results was due to lower pricing ($63.5 million), lower volumes ($44.0 million), higher raw material costs ($29.6 million), primarily natural gas and electrical power costs, and a charge associated with legacy litigation matters ($36.1 million).
Current report
These decreases were partially offset by lower operating costs ($43.5 million), which included higher planned maintenance turnaround expenses, and lower costs associated with product purchases from other parties ($6.9 million). Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment results included depreciation and amortization expense of $93.2 million and $107.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Current report
Winchester segment income was $15.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $22.8 million for the same period in 2025, a decrease of $7.6 million. The decrease in segment results was primarily due to higher raw material and operating costs ($14.2 million), including commodity metal and propellant costs, partially offset by higher product pricing ($5.1 million) and higher sales volume and military project revenue ($1.5 million). Winchester segment income included depreciation and amortization expense of $8.9 million and $9.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Current report
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, other corporate and unallocated costs were $33.2 million compared to $20.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, an increase of $13.2 million. The increase was primarily due to higher stock-based compensation costs ($10.0 million), which includes mark-to-market adjustments, and an unfavorable foreign currency impact ($3.8 million).
Current report
We have included additional information with respect to our restructuring charges within Item 1, within Note 4, “Restructuring Charges” of our notes to condensed financial statements.
Current report
We expect second quarter 2026 operating results from our Chemical businesses to be higher than the first quarter 2026, with seasonally stronger demand and improved pricing. We expect our Winchester business second quarter 2026 results to increase from first quarter 2026 with improved commercial and military demand. Overall, we expect Olin’s second quarter 2026 operating results to be higher than the first quarter 2026 levels.
Current report
During the first half of 2026, we expect to pay approximately $195 million to Shintech associated with the litigation matter discussed in Note 22, “Commitments and Contingencies” of our notes to consolidated financial statements, and previously recorded accruals for a VCM pricing dispute with Shintech.
Current report
We currently believe the 2026 effective tax rate will be in the 20% to 30% range. We expect to receive refunds from prior years related to the clean hydrogen production tax credit under Section 45V as part of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. Factoring in these refunds, we expect cash taxes to be in the range of a net refund of $20 million to a net payment of $20 million.
Current report
The payment of cash dividends is subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors and will be determined in light of then-current conditions, including our earnings, our operations, our financial condition, our capital requirements and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors. In the future, our Board of Directors may change our dividend policy, including the frequency or amount of any dividend, in light of then-existing conditions.
Current report
In connection with the continued cessation of our BWA joint venture, during the first quarter 2026, we paid a cash distribution of $31.3 million to Mitsui for the liquidation of BWA working capital.
Current report
On February 19, 2026, we executed an amendment to the 2025 Senior Credit Facility (Senior Secured Credit Facility) which, among other things, modified the financial covenants to be less restrictive and incorporated guarantees and collateral by certain of our domestic subsidiaries. The Senior Secured Credit Facility maintained the 2025 Term Loan Facility, as amended (Secured Term Loan Facility, and collectively with the 2025 Term Loan Facility and the 2022 Term Loan Facility, the Term Loan Facilities), and the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility, as amended (Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, and collectively with the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility and 2022 Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolving Credit Facilities). The amendment required all remaining principal amortization payments under the Secured Term Loan Facility to be satisfied. Borrowings under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility were used to satisfy the $109.7 million remaining principal amortization payments under the Secured Term Loan Facility. The maturity date for the Senior Secured Credit Facility remained March 14, 2030. At March 31, 2026, we had $160.0 million of borrowings and $0.4 million of letters of credit issued under our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and $1,039.6 million of undrawn commitments.
Current report
The amendment requires that the obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facility be guaranteed by certain of our domestic subsidiaries. The obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facility are also secured by liens on substantially all of Olin’s and the subsidiary guarantors’ personal property (Collateral), other than certain principal properties and capital stock of subsidiaries, and subject to certain other exceptions. The amendment provides that substantially all guarantees under the Senior Secured Credit Facility and liens on Collateral be released automatically upon notice by Olin, or after September 30, 2027, upon which time all covenant reliefs expire.
Current report
Under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, we may select various floating rate borrowing options. The actual interest rate paid on borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facility is based on a pricing grid which is dependent upon the net leverage ratio as calculated under the terms of the applicable facility for the prior fiscal quarter. The Senior Secured Credit Facility includes various customary restrictive covenants, including restrictions related to the ratio of secured debt to earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization (net leverage ratio) and the ratio of earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization to interest expense (coverage ratio). The calculation of secured debt in our net leverage ratio excludes borrowings under the 2024 Receivables Financing Agreement (defined below), up to a maximum of $425.0 million.

Net income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $42.8 million and $42.9 million, respectively, compared to $(24.9) million and $97.9 million, for the same prior year periods. The three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, included $109.4 million of additional costs, unabsorbed fixed manufacturing costs, and reduced profit from lost sales associated with Hurricane Beryl in the prior year. The remaining decrease in net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily due to lower operating results across all of our business segments. Diluted net income (loss) per share was $0.37 for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $(0.21) and $0.81 in the prior year periods, respectively.
Previous report
In the third quarter of 2025, Olin determined that it qualified for the clean hydrogen production tax credit under Section 45V as part of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. We received notice of our provisional carbon dioxide emissions rate from the United States Department of Energy, which was a major milestone for recognition. The 45V tax credit is available for qualified clean hydrogen produced and sold during the 10-year period beginning on the date the qualified clean hydrogen production facility was originally placed in service. Since the 45V tax credit is refundable, we account for the 45V tax credit under a government grant model. As a result, during the third quarter of 2025 Olin recorded a $32.0 million reduction to cost of goods sold primarily related to the sale and use of hydrogen produced at certain of our chlor alkali plants. We expect an annual pretax benefit of $15 million to $20 million for years 2026 through 2028, with lower amounts through 2032.
Previous report
Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls reported segment income was $127.6 million and $270.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment income included the $32.0 million pretax benefit primarily related to the 45V tax credit. The third quarter 2024 segment income included a $76.7 million penalty associated with Hurricane Beryl. The remaining decrease in segment income from the comparable prior year periods was primarily due to lower EDC pricing, partially offset by higher caustic soda pricing and higher volumes.
Previous report
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we repurchased and retired 1.7 million shares of common stock at a total value of $40.4 million. As of September 30, 2025, we had $1,958.9 million of remaining authorization to repurchase shares of our common stock under our 2022 Repurchase Authorization and 2024 Repurchase Authorization (both defined below) programs.
Previous report
On March 14, 2025, we entered into a new $1,850.0 million senior credit facility (2025 Senior Credit Facility), which increased the borrowing limit of our then-existing credit facility by $300.0 million and extended the maturity date from October 11, 2027 to March 14, 2030. Pursuant to the agreement, the aggregate principal amount under our term loan facility increased from $350.0 million to $650.0 million and the aggregate principal amount under our revolving credit facility remained at $1,200.0 million. The term loan was fully drawn on the closing date.
Previous report
The ultimate impact of tariffs and trade flows remains highly uncertain. While we are continuing to monitor the situation, as of the date of this filing, the direct impact from current tariffs has not been significant to our chemicals businesses. Our chemicals businesses generally source and sell where we produce. An exception to this would be potential retaliatory tariffs on caustic soda and EDC exports, which could alter the economics rapidly within the respective countries. Additionally, although Winchester procures the majority of metals domestically, we will still realize tariff driven price inflation for the domestic supply of copper, steel and tungsten products. Winchester will also realize secondary effects from suppliers consuming tariff impacted metals in their end products.
Previous report
On April 18, 2025, Olin acquired AMMO, Inc.’s small caliber ammunition manufacturing assets for total consideration of $55.8 million, subject to normal post-closing adjustments. The acquisition, which included AMMO Inc.’s brass shellcase capabilities and its 185,000 square foot production facility located in Manitowoc, WI, is included in Olin’s Winchester segment. The acquisition was financed with cash on hand.
Previous report
Gross margin increased $48.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the prior year period. Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls gross margin increased $73.1 million and Epoxy gross margin increased $10.3 million, both primarily due to the impact of Hurricane Beryl in 2024. Winchester gross margin decreased by $34.9 million primarily due to lower commercial sales volumes and pricing. Gross margin as a percentage of sales increased to 11% during the three months ended September 30, 2025 from 8% during the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Previous report
Selling and administration expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2025 were $98.1 million, a decrease of $13.6 million from the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to a favorable foreign currency impact of $7.0 million, lower legal and legal-related settlement expense of $6.3 million and lower consulting and contract services of $5.2 million, partially offset by higher variable incentive compensation costs of $4.8 million, which includes mark-to-market adjustments on stock-based compensation expense. Selling and administration expenses as a percentage of sales was 6% and 7% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Previous report
The tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $2.2 million, resulting in a negative effective tax rate of 5.3%. The effective rate was lower than the 21.0% U.S. federal statutory rate, primarily due to U.S. federal tax credits and favorable permanent salt depletion deductions, partially offset by foreign income inclusions and a change in tax contingencies. The tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $0.0 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 0.0%. The effective rate was lower than the 21.0% U.S. federal statutory rate, primarily due to state income tax, foreign income inclusions, a change in tax contingencies and remeasurement of deferred taxes due to an increase in our state effective tax rates, partially offset by favorable permanent salt depletion deductions and benefit from prior year tax positions.
Previous report
Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were $5,115.7 million compared to $4,868.8 million in the same period last year, an increase of $246.9 million, or 5%. Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls sales increased by $151.5 million primarily due to higher volumes, partially offset by lower pricing. Epoxy sales increased by $68.4 million, primarily due to higher volumes, including the impact of Hurricane Beryl in 2024, partially offset by lower pricing. Winchester sales increased by $27.0 million, primarily due to increased sales to military customers and military project revenue, partially offset by lower commercial ammunition sales.
Previous report
Selling and administration expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were $294.3 million, a decrease of $13.9 million from the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to a favorable foreign currency impact of $16.7 million and lower consulting and contract services of $6.8 million, partially offset by higher variable incentive compensation costs of $9.3 million, which includes mark-to-market adjustments on stock-based compensation expense. Selling and administration expenses as a percentage of sales was 6% for both the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

Previous report
Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased $2.5 million from the prior year period, primarily due to the write-off of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs and costs associated with our first quarter financing transactions, including the 2025 Senior Credit Facility, early redemption of the 2025 Notes and the 2027 Notes, and issuance of the 2033 Notes.

Tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $36.8 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 27.9%. The effective rate was higher than the 21.0% U.S. federal statutory rate, primarily due to state income tax, foreign income inclusions, a change in tax contingencies and remeasurement of deferred taxes due to an increase in our state effective tax rates, partially offset by favorable permanent salt depletion deductions, a benefit from prior year tax positions, U.S. federal tax credits purchased at a discount and a benefit associated with stock-based compensation.
Previous report
Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls sales for the three months ended September 30, 2025 were $924.0 million compared to $871.6 million for the same period in 2024, an increase of $52.4 million, or 6%. The sales increase was primarily due to higher volumes, partially offset by lower pricing.
Previous report
Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment income was $127.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $45.3 million for the same period in 2024, an increase of $82.3 million. The increase in segment results was due to the negative impact of Hurricane Beryl in 2024 resulting in additional costs to restore operations, unabsorbed fixed manufacturing costs, and reduced profit from lost sales ($76.7 million), a benefit primarily related to the 45V tax credit ($32.0 million), higher volumes ($22.5 million) and lower costs associated with products purchased from other parties ($14.5 million). This increase was partially offset by lower pricing ($43.3 million), primarily EDC, partially offset by higher caustic soda, and higher raw material and operating costs ($20.1 million). Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment results included depreciation and amortization expense of $109.0 million and $106.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Previous report
Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were $2,828.0 million compared to $2,676.5 million for the same period in 2024, an increase of $151.5 million, or 6%. The sales increase was primarily due to higher volumes, partially offset by lower pricing.
Previous report
Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment income was $270.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $221.2 million for the same period in 2024. The increase in segment results of $49.6 million was due to the negative impact of Hurricane Beryl in 2024 resulting in additional costs to restore operations, unabsorbed fixed manufacturing costs, and reduced profit from lost sales ($76.7 million), higher volumes ($66.0 million), lower costs associated with products purchased from other parties ($39.8 million) and a benefit primarily related to the 45V tax credit ($32.0 million). This increase was partially offset by lower pricing ($97.5 million), primarily EDC, partially offset by higher caustic soda, and higher raw material and operating costs ($67.4 million), including planned maintenance turnaround expenses. Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment results included depreciation and amortization expense of $322.5 million and $319.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Epoxy sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were $1,012.5 million compared to $944.1 million for the same period in 2024, an increase of $68.4 million, or 7%. The sales increase was due to higher volumes ($107.7 million), including the impact of Hurricane Beryl in 2024, and a favorable effect of foreign currency translation ($3.9 million), partially offset by lower product pricing ($43.2 million).
Previous report
Epoxy segment loss was $84.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to segment loss of $57.6 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease in segment results of $26.7 million was due to higher operating costs ($72.5 million), including unabsorbed fixed manufacturing costs incurred from planned inventory reductions and planned maintenance turnaround expenses, and lower product pricing ($43.2 million), partially offset by lower raw material costs ($49.8 million), primarily benzene and propylene, the negative impact of Hurricane Beryl in 2024 resulting in additional costs to restore operations, unabsorbed fixed manufacturing costs, and reduced profit from lost sales ($32.7 million) and increased volumes ($6.5 million). A significant percentage of our Euro denominated sales are from products manufactured within Europe. As a result, the impact of foreign currency translation on revenue is primarily offset by the impact of foreign currency translation on raw materials and manufacturing costs also denominated in Euros. Epoxy segment results included depreciation and amortization expense of $39.1 million and $40.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Further discussion on our restructuring optimization efforts is referenced under Item 1, within Note 4, “Restructuring Charges.”
Previous report
The fourth quarter market environment, typically the weakest seasonal quarter for our businesses, is anticipated to be more difficult than usual, as continued global uncertainty and related cautious customer buying patterns will further challenge demand. As a result, we expect our Chemicals businesses’ fourth quarter 2025 results to decline from the third quarter 2025. We expect our Winchester business fourth quarter results to decline from third quarter 2025 levels as a result of seasonally weaker commercial ammunition demand and inventory destocking by our retail customers. Overall, we expect Olin’s fourth quarter 2025 operating results to be lower than our third quarter 2025 levels.
Previous report
We currently believe 2025 income tax will be a benefit of $25 million to $35 million. We expect cash taxes paid to be approximately $175 million, primarily for earnings in foreign jurisdictions, including the previously deferred international tax payments that have been made in 2025.

Environmental investigatory and remediation activities spending was associated with former waste disposal sites and past manufacturing operations. Spending in 2025 for investigatory and remedial efforts, the timing of which is subject to regulatory approvals and other uncertainties, is estimated to be approximately$30 million. Cash outlays for remedial and investigatory activities associated with former waste disposal sites and past manufacturing operations were not charged to income, but instead, were charged to reserves established for such costs identified and expensed to income in prior periods. Associated costs of investigatory and remedial activities are provided for in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles governing probability and the ability to reasonably estimate future costs. Our ability to estimate future costs depends on whether our investigatory and remedial activities are in preliminary or advanced stages. With respect to unasserted claims, we accrue liabilities for costs that, in our experience, we expect to incur to protect our interests against those unasserted claims. Our accrued liabilities for unasserted claims amounted to $11.3 million at September 30, 2025. With respect to asserted claims, we accrue liabilities based on remedial investigation, feasibility study, remedial action and operation, maintenance and monitoring (OM&M) expenses that, in our experience, we expect to incur in connection with the asserted claims. Required site OM&M expenses are estimated and accrued in their entirety for required periods not exceeding 30 years, which reasonably approximates the typical duration of long-term site OM&M. Charges to income for investigatory and remedial efforts may be material to our operating results in 2025.

We were in compliance with all covenants and restrictions under all our outstanding debt agreements as of September 30, 2025, and no event of default had occurred under any of our outstanding debt agreements that would permit the acceleration of the debt if not cured. In the future, our ability to generate sufficient operating cash flows, among other factors, will determine the amounts available to be borrowed under these facilities. As a result of our restrictive covenant related to the net leverage ratio, the maximum additional borrowings available to us could be limited in the future. The limitation, if an amendment or waiver from our lenders is not obtained, could restrict our ability to borrow the maximum amounts available under the 2025 Senior Credit Facility and the 2024 Receivables Financing Agreement (defined below). As of September 30, 2025, there were no covenants or other restrictions that limited our ability to borrow.
