In 2025, the process of converting the United States food market from synthetic to natural colors gained significant momentum as a result of legislative action in various states, political support from the Trump administration, and announcements of commitments to eliminate synthetic food colorants by several major United States companies. As a result of the aforementioned developments, the Company is in the process of accelerating its efforts to enable the conversion of its synthetic food color business in North America (of approximately $100 million in revenue) to natural colors. Because much more natural color is generally needed to replicate the appearance of a synthetic color in an existing product, this conversion activity presents major opportunities for the Company and requires increased commercial and R&D activity to support customers and significant investment around the world to increase the Company’s production capacity, optimize and expand its product portfolio, and build a resilient supply chain. The Company has significantly invested in building its natural color capabilities over the last 15 years and continues to make significant capital investments to meet this opportunity.
