The specialty chemicals company posted an adjusted loss of $0.20 per share, falling well short of the consensus estimate of $0.12 per diluted loss, a 64.34% miss, while revenue slid 7.4% year-over-year to $1.46 billion against expectations of $1.49 billion. The primary culprit was Huntsman's largest segment, Polyurethanes, where adjusted EBITDA collapsed 61% to $31 million as weaker MDI pricing, reduced construction-related demand, and a Rotterdam facility turnaround combined to squeeze margins dramatically. Companywide adjusted EBITDA fell to $74 million from $131 million a year ago. Management offered little relief for the near term, signaling no meaningful improvement in construction or industrial demand is expected in the third quarter, while an expanding restructuring program, including facility closures and a nearly 10% global workforce reduction, underscores the severity of the headwinds Huntsman now faces.
Key Takeaways
- • Lower MDI average selling prices due to unfavorable supply/demand dynamics
- • Reduced sales volumes from lower demand in construction-related markets
- • Scheduled turnaround at Rotterdam, Netherlands manufacturing facility in Q2 2025
- • Lower operating rates at Moers, Germany facility
- • Softer market conditions in coatings and aerospace markets
- • Lower equity earnings from minority-owned joint venture in China
- • Favorable working capital swing of $100 million supporting cash flow
- • Lower raw materials costs partially offsetting price declines

HUN Revenue by Segment
With YoY comparisons, source: SEC Filings
“The second quarter played out largely as expected as lower global construction and industrial activity pressured our volumes. The seasonal uplift in construction demand we typically experience in the second quarter was muted in 2025 and we do not believe that these trends will change in a meaningful way in the third quarter.”
