Olin Reports Q2 Earnings Call Details
In its second-quarter earnings call, Olin Corporation (NYSE:OLN) highlighted a $40 million reduction in adjusted EBITDA due to an unplanned outage at its Freeport VCM facility. Repairs are ongoing and expected to restore full capacity by Q4, with another $20 million impact anticipated for Q3. The company noted improved performance from its epoxy business, which returned to positive earnings thanks to pricing actions and cost reductions exceeding $50 million annually. Winchester also saw benefits from increased commercial ammunition demand, higher prices, and reduced import competition due to tariffs. Olin remains on track with its planned merger with Huntsman, aiming for a first-half 2027 close and $400 million in synergies. The company provided Q3 adjusted EBITDA guidance of $160–$200 million while emphasizing continued cost savings and debt reduction as priorities.
