CEO QUOTE

Jim Fitterling, chair and chief executive officer, commented on the quarter:

"In the second quarter, Team Dow delivered sequential earnings improvement and our third consecutive quarter of year-over-year volume growth," said Fitterling. "The pace of the global macroeconomic recovery has been slower than expected. We remain focused on working capital, reducing costs, and matching our operating rates to current demand. We're innovating with our customers, which was evident in the quarter as we captured growing demand in packaging, electronics, and home & personal care. With a continued focus on cash generation, we delivered cash flow from operations of $832 million and free cash flow of $109 million. This enabled us to return $691 million to shareholders while progressing our higher-return growth investments."

Packaging & Specialty Plastics segment net sales in the quarter were $5.5 billion, down 7% versus the year-ago period. Local price decreased 4% year-over-year, due to lower downstream polymer prices primarily in Asia Pacific. Currency was flat. Volume decreased 3% year-over-year, driven by lower merchant hydrocarbon sales, partly offset by higher demand for functional polymers and polyethylene. On a sequential basis, net sales increased by 2%, led by gains in EMEAI.

Equity earnings were $55 million, an increase of $36 million compared to the prior year, led by gains at our principal joint ventures, including Sadara which had planned maintenance turnaround activity in the prior year. Sequentially, equity earnings were up $30 million, driven by gains at our non-principal joint ventures.

Operating EBIT was $703 million, a decrease of $215 million compared to the year-ago period, driven by lower integrated margins, higher planned maintenance activity, and lower non-recurring licensing sales. Sequentially, Op. EBIT increased by $98 million, primarily due to higher integrated margins.

Packaging and Specialty Plastics business reported a net sales decline versus the year-ago period as higher demand for industrial, consumer, and flexible food packaging was more than offset by lower prices, primarily in infrastructure and mobility end-markets, and lower non-recurring licensing sales. Sequentially, net sales increased, led by higher polyethylene sales in the U.S. & Canada, EMEAI, and Latin America.

Hydrocarbons & Energy business reported a net sales decline compared to the year-ago period, driven by lower merchant olefin and aromatic sales primarily due to lighter feedslate cracking in EMEAI. Sequentially, net sales decreased slightly due to lower third-party power and steam sales in the U.S. & Canada.

Volume was up 1% year-over-year, driven by gains in Polyurethanes & Construction Chemicals.

Dow reports second quarter 2024 results

Operating EBIT was $146 million, an improvement of $80 million compared to the year-ago period, driven by broad-based business and geographic volume growth. Sequentially, Op. EBIT increased $105 million, driven by volume gains in both businesses and lower planned maintenance activity.

Consumer Solutions business reported a decrease in net sales versus the year-ago period, as higher volumes in all geographic regions and most end-markets, including home & personal care and consumer electronics, were more than offset by lower prices. Sequentially, net sales increased, driven by volume gains across all end-markets as well as price gains in the U.S. & Canada and EMEAI, which were partly offset by lower prices in Asia Pacific.

OUTLOOK

"As we look to the second half of the year, Team Dow is focused on continuing to deliver sequential earnings improvements while navigating through the slower macro environment we remain in," said Fitterling. "While near-term demand in many markets that we serve is growing, building & construction and consumer durables are unlikely to significantly change in 2024. We will continue driving higher sales through our innovation portfolio and diverse product mix. And, through leveraging our global scale, strategically advantaged cost positions, and counter-cyclical growth investments, we remain on track to enable higher earnings and shareholder returns."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This earnings release includes information that does not conform to GAAP and are considered non-GAAP measures. Management uses these measures internally for planning, forecasting and evaluating the performance of the Company's segments, including allocating resources. Dow's management believes that these non-GAAP measures best reflect the ongoing performance of the Company during the periods presented and provide more relevant and meaningful information to investors as they provide insight with respect to ongoing operating results of the Company and a more useful comparison of year-over-year results. These non-GAAP measures supplement the Company's GAAP disclosures and should not be viewed as alternatives to GAAP measures of performance. Furthermore, such non-GAAP measures may not be consistent with similar measures provided or used by other companies. Non-GAAP measures included in this release are defined below. Reconciliations for these non-GAAP measures to GAAP are provided in the Selected Financial Information and Non-GAAP Measures section starting on page 11. Dow does not provide forward-looking GAAP financial measures or a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because the Company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, unusual gains and losses, foreign currency exchange gains or losses and potential future asset impairments, as well as discrete taxable events, without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on GAAP results for the guidance period.

Operating Earnings Per Share is defined as "Earnings per common share - diluted" excluding the after-tax impact of significant items.

Operating EBIT is defined as earnings (i.e., "Income before income taxes") before interest, excluding the impact of significant items.

Operating EBIT Margin is defined as Operating EBIT as a percentage of net sales.

Operating EBITDA is defined as earnings (i.e., "Income before income taxes") before interest, depreciation and amortization, excluding the impact of significant items.

Free Cash Flow is defined as "Cash provided by operating activities - continuing operations," less capital expenditures. Under this definition, Free Cash Flow represents the cash generated by the Company from operations after investing in its asset base. Free Cash Flow, combined with cash balances and other sources of liquidity, represent the cash available to fund obligations and provide returns to shareholders. Free Cash Flow is an integral financial measure used in the Company's financial planning process.

Cash Flow Conversion is defined as "Cash provided by operating activities - continuing operations," divided by Operating EBITDA. Management believes Cash Flow Conversion is an important financial metric as it helps the Company determine how efficiently it is converting its earnings into cash flow.

Operating Return on Capital (ROC) is defined as net operating profit after tax, excluding the impact of significant items, divided by total average capital, also referred to as ROIC.
