NORTHBROOK, Ill., Oct. 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Stepan Company (NYSE:SCL) today reported:

Third Quarter 2025 Highlights

Reported net income was $10.8 million, down 54% versus the prior year. Adjusted net income⁽¹⁾was $10.9 million, down 54% versus the prior year, largely due to a higher effective tax rate and higher interest expense.
EBITDA⁽²⁾was $56.1 million and Adjusted EBITDA⁽²⁾ was $56.2 million, both up 6% respectively, year-over-year.
Global sales volume was up 1% year-over-year.
Cash from Operations was $69.8 million during the quarter. Free cash flow⁽³⁾ for the quarter was $40.2 million, driven by a reduction in working capital.
Year-over-year pre-tax earnings were negatively impacted by $8.6 million due to higher costs associated with the start-up our new alkoxylation site in Pasadena, Texas and lower capitalized interest income recognition due to the Pasadena start-up.

YTD 2025 Highlights

Reported net income was $41.9 million, down 11% versus the prior year. Adjusted net income⁽¹⁾was $42.2 million, down 12% versus the prior year.
EBITDA⁽²⁾was $164.7 million and Adjusted EBITDA⁽²⁾ was $165.1 million, both up 9% respectively, year-over-year.
Global sales volume was up 2% year-over-year.

"Third quarter adjusted EBITDA grew 6% and free cash flow improved to $40.2 million dollars for the quarter. Year-to-date adjusted EBITDA is up 9% with volumes up 2%. We achieved these positive results despite higher start-up expenses at our Pasadena site and a significant run up in oleochemical raw material costs," said Luis E. Rojo, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Third quarter Adjusted Net Income was negatively impacted by a higher effective tax rate, higher depreciation and higher interest net versus prior year, none of which had a cash impact. From a segment perspective, Polymer volume was up 8% as our Rigid, Specialty Polyols and Phthalic Anhydride businesses all delivered volume growth. Within Surfactants, we experienced double digit volume growth within the Agricultural and Industrial Cleaning end markets and mid-single digit growth within the Oilfield end markets. This growth was offset by lower demand in the global commodity Consumer Products end markets. Specialty Products delivered earnings growth during the quarter due to order timing differences. We are encouraged by volume growth across several key strategic end markets, and we remain focused on gradually restoring margins while maintaining a healthy balance between volume and margins."

Percentage Change in Net Sales

Net sales in the third quarter of 2025 increased 8% year-over-year. This increase was primarily driven by higher selling prices that were mainly attributable to the pass-through of higher raw material costs and more favorable product mix.

Consolidated adjusted EBITDA⁽²⁾ increased $3.1 million, or 6%, in the quarter. This increase was primarily driven by strong Specialty Products results and the non-recurrence of expenses associated with the external criminal social engineering fraud event in 2024. Surfactant adjusted EBITDA declined due to a 2% decline in sales volume, lower unit margins and higher costs associated with the start-up of our new alkoxylation site in Pasadena, Texas.

Surfactant net sales were $422.4 million for the quarter, a 10% increase versus the prior year. Selling prices were up 11% primarily due to improved product and customer mix and the pass through of higher raw material costs. Sales volume declined 2% year-over-year primarily due to lower demand within the commodity Laundry and Cleaning end markets that was largely offset by double digit growth within the Agricultural and Industrial Cleaning end markets. Foreign currency translation positively impacted net sales by 1%. Surfactant adjusted EBITDA⁽²⁾for the quarter decreased $6.2 million, or 14%, versus the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to higher expenses associated with the start-up of our new alkoxylation facility in Pasadena, Texas, a 2% decrease in sales volume and higher oleochemicals raw material costs.
Polymer net sales were $143.9 million for the quarter, a 4% decrease versus the prior year. Selling prices decreased 14%, primarily due to the pass-through of lower raw material costs and competitive pressures. Sales volume increased 8% in the quarter. North American Rigid and commodity Phthalic Anhydride sales volume was up double digits year-over-year. Foreign currency translation positively impacted net sales by 2% during the quarter. Polymer adjusted EBITDA⁽²⁾ decreased $1.0 million, or 4%, versus the prior year primarily due to lower unit margins.
Specialty Product net sales were $24.0 million for the quarter, a 68% increase versus the prior year, primarily due to higher sales volume and product mix. Specialty Product adjusted EBITDA⁽²⁾ increased $5.9 million, or 113%. The increase in adjusted EBITDA⁽²⁾ was primarily due to order timing fluctuations within the pharmaceutical business.

Income Taxes

The Company's effective tax rate was 23.8% in the first nine months of 2025 versus 18.9% in the first nine months of 2024. This increase was primarily attributable to the recently enacted U.S. Tax Act (H.R.1), lower anticipated R&D tax credits and the expected tax impact of certain cash repatriations to the United States.

Outlook

"Looking forward, we remain focused on accelerating our business strategies through enhanced operational excellence, improved product and customer mix and accelerated free cash flow generation. We believe our Surfactant business will experience continued growth in our key strategic end markets and that Polymer demand will continue improving as we get more market certainty and we execute our innovation and growth plans," said Luis E. Rojo, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We remain on track to close our asset sale in the Philippines during the fourth quarter. In parallel, we are analyzing opportunities to optimize our footprint and asset base. Despite the ongoing market and tariff uncertainties, we remain optimistic about delivering full-year Adjusted EBITDA growth and generating positive free cash flow in 2025."

The Company believes that certain non-GAAP measures, in conjunction with comparable GAAP measures, are useful for evaluating the Company's operating performance and financial condition. The Company uses this non-GAAP information as an indicator of business performance and evaluates management's effectiveness with specific reference to these indicators. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information because they exclude non-operational items that affect comparability between years. These measures should be considered in addition to, not as substitutes for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies. The Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 contains additional information regarding the use of non-GAAP financial measures.

Summary of Third Quarter 2025 Adjusted Net Income Items

Adjusted net income excludes non-operational deferred compensation income/expense, certain environmental remediation costs and other significant and infrequent or non-recurring items.

Deferred Compensation: The third quarter of 2025 reported net income includes $0.1 million of after-tax income versus $0.4 million of after-tax income in the prior year.
Environmental Remediation: The third quarter of 2025 reported net income includes $0.3 million of after-tax expense versus $0.4 million of after-tax expense in the prior year.
