About Albemarle

Albemarle Corporation (NYSE: ALB) produces lithium and bromine for mobility, energy, connectivity and health end markets. It reports two segments.

Energy Storage sells lithium salts and spodumene, measured on a lithium carbonate equivalent basis, to customers in the electric vehicle and grid/energy storage battery supply chains. About one-third of total volumes are sold under long-term agreements. This segment draws on resources including the Talison (Greenbushes) lithium joint venture held through Windfield Holdings, the Wodgina spodumene operation, Chilean brine operations, and the Kemerton conversion facility in Australia, where Train 1 is being placed into care and maintenance.

Specialties sells bromine and derivatives, along with lithium specialties, into semiconductors, oil and gas, flame retardants, pharmaceuticals, automotive and petrochemical markets. It operates partly through the Jordan Bromine Company joint venture.

In March 2026, Albemarle sold a 51% controlling stake in Ketjen's refining catalyst solutions business and its 50% interest in the Eurecat joint venture. Refining catalyst earnings and the retained Performance Catalyst Solutions business are now reported within Corporate. Updated
