OLIN CORPORATION AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Olin Corporation (Olin, the Company, we or our) is a Virginia corporation, incorporated in 1892, having its principal executive offices in Clayton, MO. We are a leading vertically integrated global manufacturer and distributor of chemical products and a leading U.S. manufacturer of ammunition. Our operations are concentrated in three business segments: Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls, Epoxy and Winchester. All of our business segments are capital-intensive manufacturing businesses. The Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment manufactures and sells chlorine and caustic soda, ethylene dichloride (EDC) and vinyl chloride monomer (VCM), methyl chloride, methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, perchloroethylene, hydrochloric acid, hydrogen, bleach products and potassium hydroxide. The Epoxy segment produces and sells a full range of epoxy materials and precursors, including aromatics (acetone and phenol), allyl chloride, epichlorohydrin, liquid epoxy resins, solid epoxy resins and formulated solutions products such as converted epoxy resins and additives. The Winchester segment produces and sells sporting ammunition, reloading components, small caliber military ammunition and components, industrial cartridges and clay targets, along with contracted U.S. military project revenue.
Basis of Presentation
We have prepared the condensed financial statements included herein, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States (U.S.) Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The preparation of the financial statements requires estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported and disclosed in the financial statements and related notes. In our opinion, these financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal accruals), which are necessary to present fairly the results for interim periods. Certain reclassifications were made to prior year amounts to conform to the current period presentation and certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations; however, we believe that the disclosures are appropriate. We recommend that you read these condensed financial statements in conjunction with the financial statements, accounting policies and the notes thereto and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
NOTE 2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which expands the disclosure requirements in the notes to the financial statements on certain costs and expenses on an interim and annual basis. The new requirements are effective for the Company’s annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with the option to early adopt at any time before the effective date. ASU 2024-03 requires adoption on a prospective basis, with the option for retrospective application. While the ASU implements further disclosure requirements, it does not change how an entity calculates and/or records its expenses, and it will have no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. We are currently evaluating the impact of the standard on our disclosures.
In May 2026, the FASB issued ASU 2026-02, Environmental Credits and Environmental Credit Obligations (Topic 818). This standard provides specific guidelines for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure requirements for all entities that generate, purchase, or receive environmental credits or have a regulatory compliance obligation that may be settled with environmental credits. The standard is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. We expect to adopt this standard beginning on January 1, 2028 and we are currently evaluating the impact of the standard on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
NOTE 3. ACQUISITIONS
On April 18, 2025, Olin acquired AMMO, Inc.’s small caliber ammunition manufacturing assets for total consideration of $55.8 million. The acquisition, which includes AMMO Inc.’s brass shellcase capabilities and its 185,000 square foot production facility located in Manitowoc, WI, is included in Olin’s Winchester segment. The acquisition was financed with cash on hand. We recorded the final aggregate excess purchase price over the fair value of identifiable tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which included a final allocation of $4.1 million of goodwill allocated to our Winchester segment. The total assets acquired, excluding goodwill, and liabilities assumed amounted to $62.2 million and $6.4 million, respectively. The acquisition is not material and therefore supplemental pro forma financial information is not provided.
On June 15, 2026, Olin entered into a definitive agreement with Huntsman Corporation (Huntsman) to combine in an all-stock merger of equals transaction (the Merger Agreement) to form a combined company, OlinHuntsman Corporation.
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the transaction, each issued and outstanding share of Huntsman common stock will be converted into the right to receive 0.5476 shares of Olin common stock. Upon completion of the transaction, existing Olin shareholders are expected to own approximately 54.5% of the combined company and existing Huntsman stockholders are expected to own approximately 45.5% of the combined company.
The consummation of the merger is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the receipt of required regulatory approvals and approval of the merger by both Olin shareholders and Huntsman stockholders. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2027.
For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, we incurred acquisition-related costs of $10.6 million which included costs associated with advisory, legal, accounting, and other professional fees.
NOTE 4. RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

We expect to incur additional restructuring charges through 2030 of approximately $70 million related to these actions.
NOTE 5. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic and diluted net (loss) income attributable to Olin Corporation per share are computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to Olin Corporation by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.

Our long-term supply contracts are monitored for impairment each reporting period.
Investments in Non-consolidated Affiliates
Olin Corporation and Plug Power, Inc. have a joint venture named Hidrogenii, LLC (Hidrogenii), a strategic partnership that aims to leverage the strengths of both companies to advance hydrogen production and utilization. The joint venture began with the construction of a 15-ton-per-day hydrogen liquefaction plant in St. Gabriel, LA, which commenced operations in the second quarter 2025. Hidrogenii is owned 50% by Plug Power LA JV, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Plug Power, Inc., and 50% by Niloco Hydrogen Holdings LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Olin Corporation. The investments in, and the operating results of, 50%-or-less-owned entities not controlled by Olin are included in the condensed financial statements using the equity method basis of accounting and classified as non-consolidated affiliates.

Senior Notes and Senior Credit Facilities
On March 14, 2025, Olin entered into a $1,850.0 million senior credit facility (2025 Senior Credit Facility), which increased the borrowing limit of our then-existing $1,550.0 million senior credit facility (2022 Senior Credit Facility) by $300.0 million and extended the maturity date from October 11, 2027 to March 14, 2030. The 2025 Senior Credit Facility includes a term loan facility with aggregate commitments of $650.0 million (2025 Term Loan Facility), which replaced Olin’s then-existing $350.0 million term loan facility (2022 Term Loan Facility), and a revolving credit facility with aggregate commitments of $1,200.0 million (2025 Revolving Credit Facility), which replaced Olin’s then-existing $1,200.0 million revolving credit facility (2022 Revolving Credit Facility).
On February 19, 2026, we executed an amendment to the 2025 Senior Credit Facility (Senior Secured Credit Facility) which, among other things, modified the financial covenants to be less restrictive and incorporated guarantees and collateral by certain of our domestic subsidiaries. The Senior Secured Credit Facility maintained the 2025 Term Loan Facility, as amended (Secured Term Loan Facility, and collectively with the 2025 Term Loan Facility and the 2022 Term Loan Facility, the Term Loan Facilities), and the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility, as amended (Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, and collectively with the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility and 2022 Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolving Credit Facilities). The amendment required all remaining principal amortization payments under the Secured Term Loan Facility to be satisfied. Borrowings under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility were used to satisfy the $109.7 million remaining principal amortization payments under the Secured Term Loan Facility. The maturity date for the Senior Secured Credit Facility remains March 14, 2030.
The Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility includes a $100.0 million letter of credit subfacility. At June 30, 2026, we had $210.0 million of borrowings and $0.4 million of letters of credit issued under our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and $989.6 million of undrawn commitments.
The obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of our domestic subsidiaries. The obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facility are also secured by liens on substantially all of Olin’s and the subsidiary guarantors’ personal property (Collateral), other than certain principal properties and capital stock of subsidiaries, and subject to certain other exceptions. Substantially all guarantees under the Senior Secured Credit Facility and liens on Collateral will be released automatically upon notice by Olin, or after September 30, 2027, at which time all covenant reliefs expire.
Under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, we may select various floating rate borrowing options. The actual interest rate paid on borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facility is based on a pricing grid which is dependent upon the net leverage ratio as calculated under the terms of the applicable facility for the prior fiscal quarter. The Senior Secured Credit Facility includes various customary restrictive covenants, including restrictions related to the ratio of secured debt to earnings before
interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization (net leverage ratio) and the ratio of earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization to interest expense (coverage ratio). The calculation of secured debt in our net leverage ratio excludes borrowings under the 2024 Receivables Financing Agreement, (as defined below) up to a maximum of $425.0 million.
On March 14, 2025, Olin issued $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% senior notes due April 1, 2033 (2033 Notes), in a private offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Interest on the 2033 Notes is paid semi-annually and began on October 1, 2025.
Proceeds from the 2033 Notes, together with borrowings under the 2025 Senior Credit Facility, were used to redeem the $108.6 million 9.50% senior notes due 2025 (2025 Notes), redeem the $500.0 million 5.125% senior notes due 2027 (2027 Notes), refinance the then-existing 2022 Senior Credit Facility, comprised of $505.0 million of borrowings under the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility and $332.5 million of borrowings under the 2022 Term Loan Facility, and pay related fees and expenses.
As of June 30, 2026, no event of default had occurred under any of our outstanding debt agreements that would permit the acceleration of the debt if not cured, and we were in compliance with all covenants and restrictions under all our outstanding debt agreements. In the future, our ability to generate sufficient operating cash flows, among other factors, will determine the amounts available to be borrowed under these facilities. As a result of our restrictive covenant related to the net leverage ratio, the maximum additional borrowings available to us could be limited in the future. The limitation, if an amendment or waiver from our lenders is not obtained, could restrict our ability to borrow the maximum amounts available under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and the 2024 Receivables Financing Agreement (defined below). As of June 30, 2026, there were no covenants or other restrictions that limited our ability to borrow.
Receivables Financing Agreement
We maintain a $500.0 million receivables financing agreement (2024 Receivables Financing Agreement) that is scheduled to mature on November 19, 2027. Under the 2024 Receivables Financing Agreement, our eligible trade receivables are used for collateralized borrowings and continue to be serviced by us. In addition, the 2024 Receivables Financing Agreement incorporates the net leverage ratio covenant that is contained in the Senior Secured Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2026, we had $442.0 million drawn under the 2024 Receivables Financing Agreement, $640.8 million of our trade receivables were pledged as collateral and we had $50.6 million of additional borrowing capacity, which was limited by our borrowing base.

NOTE 11. PENSION PLANS AND RETIREMENT BENEFITS
We sponsor domestic and foreign defined benefit pension plans for eligible employees and retirees. Most of our domestic employees participate in defined contribution plans. However, a portion of our bargaining hourly employees continue to participate in our domestic qualified defined benefit pension plans under a flat-benefit formula. Our funding policy for the qualified defined benefit pension plans is consistent with the requirements of federal laws and regulations. Our foreign subsidiaries maintain pension and other benefit plans, which are consistent with local statutory practices.
Our domestic qualified defined benefit pension plan provides that if, within three years following a change of control of Olin, any corporate action is taken or filing made in contemplation of, among other things, a plan termination or merger or other transfer of assets or liabilities of the plan, and such termination, merger, or transfer thereafter takes place, plan benefits would automatically be increased for affected participants (and retired participants) to absorb any plan surplus (subject to applicable collective bargaining requirements).
We also provide certain postretirement healthcare (medical) and life insurance benefits for eligible active and retired domestic employees. The healthcare plans are contributory with participants’ contributions adjusted annually based on medical rates of inflation and plan experience.

We made cash contributions to our international qualified defined benefit pension plans of $0.6 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
NOTE 12. INCOME TAXES
The Company’s effective tax rate fluctuates from period to period based on several factors, including the geographic mix of earnings, the level of income or loss relative to available tax attributes, the recognition of valuation allowances in certain jurisdictions, and discrete tax items.
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded income before income taxes of $3.8 million and an associated income tax provision of $17.1 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 450.0%. The income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily attributable to the income before income taxes for the period, an expense from prior year tax positions and the impact from a lower estimated annual effective tax rate compared with the prior quarter. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded a loss before income taxes of $(6.8) million and an associated income tax benefit of $(4.0) million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 58.8%. The income tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to a loss before taxes for the period, a release of valuation allowances on domestic state net operating losses and Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) investment tax credits recognized during the period.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded a loss before income taxes of $(114.5) million and an associated income tax benefit of $(18.2) million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 15.9%. The income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily attributable to the loss before income taxes for the period and IRA production tax credits recognized during the period, partially offset by an expense from prior year tax positions. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded a loss before income taxes of $(4.7) million and an associated income tax benefit of $(3.1) million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 66.0%. The income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to a loss before taxes for the period, an income tax benefit associated with a release of valuation allowances on domestic state net operating losses and IRA investment tax credits recognized during the period.
As of June 30, 2026, we had $23.6 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits, which would have impacted the effective tax rate, if recognized. The changes in amounts of unrecognized tax benefits were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Six Months Ended June 30, |
| 2026 | | 2025 |
| Unrecognized Tax Benefits | ($ in millions) |
| Balance at beginning of year | $ | 24.0 | | | $ | 21.1 | |
| Increases for prior year tax positions | 0.9 | | | 1.5 | |
| Decreases for prior year tax positions | (0.7) | | | (0.2) | |
| Increases for current year tax positions | 0.1 | | | 0.7 | |
| Decreases due to tax settlements | (0.7) | | | (0.8) | |
| | | |
| | | |
| Balance at end of period | $ | 23.6 | | | $ | 22.3 | |
We operate globally and file income tax returns in numerous jurisdictions. Our tax returns are subject to examination by various federal, state and local tax authorities. Additionally, examinations are ongoing in various states and foreign jurisdictions. We believe we have adequately provided for all tax positions; however, amounts asserted by taxing authorities could be greater than our accrued position.
For our primary tax jurisdictions, the tax years that remain subject to examination are as follows:
| | | | | |
| Tax Years |
| U.S. federal income tax | 2022 - 2025 |
| U.S. state income tax | 2015 - 2025 |
| Canadian federal income tax | 2018 - 2025 |
| Brazil | 2019 - 2025 |
| Germany | 2022 - 2025 |
| China | 2016 - 2025 |
| The Netherlands | 2020 - 2025 |
NOTE 13. DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN
The Company sponsors a defined contribution plan for qualifying domestic employees (Employee Retirement Savings Plan) and a supplemental executive retirement plan.
Employee Retirement Savings Plan
We sponsor a defined contribution plan for qualifying domestic employees, for which the Company generally contributes between 5.0% and 7.5% of the employees’ eligible compensation into a retirement account (Company Contribution). Employees generally vest in the value of the Company Contribution according to a schedule based on service.
We also match a percentage of our employees’ contributions (Company Match), which are invested in the same investment allocation as the employees’ contributions. Employees generally vest immediately in the Company Match.
Our contributions to the defined contribution plan were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended June 30, | | Six Months Ended June 30, |
| 2026 | | 2025 | | 2026 | | 2025 |

Performance Shares
Performance share awards are denominated in shares of Olin’s stock and are paid half in cash and half in stock. All performance share awards vest ratably and are paid out at the end of the three-year performance period, contingent upon the achievement of specified performance conditions.
Performance share awards granted during 2026 will have a payout between 0% and 240% based on Olin’s earnings over the three-year performance cycle, in relation to the earnings targets for such period set by the Compensation Committee of Olin’s Board of Directors, including a performance multiplier for Olin’s Total Shareholder Return (TSR) over the applicable three-year performance cycle in relation to the TSR over the same period among a portfolio of public companies which are selected in concert with outside compensation consultants.
Performance share awards granted before 2026 will have a payout between 0% and 200% based on two criteria: (1) 50% of the award is based on Olin’s TSR over the applicable three-year performance cycle in relation to the TSR over the same period among a portfolio of public companies which are selected in concert with outside compensation consultants and (2) 50% of the award is based on Olin’s net income over the applicable three-year performance cycle in relation to the net income goal for such period as set by the Compensation Committee.
The fair value of each performance share award based on a performance condition was estimated on the date of grant, using the current stock price. The fair value of each performance share award based on a market condition, or TSR, was estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Compensation cost associated with performance share awards is recognized ratably over the service period.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, Olin granted performance share awards of 665,432 and 573,479, respectively, at a weighted average grant date fair value per share of $25.80 and $27.46, respectively, or 103% and 99% of the grant date share price, respectively.
Restricted Stock Units
During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, Olin granted restricted stock units of 488,807 and 452,863, respectively, at a weighted average grant date fair value per share of $24.97 and $26.96, respectively. The fair value of each restricted stock unit was estimated on the date of grant using the current stock price. The awards typically vest ratably, on an annual basis, over three years, but not less than one year.
Stock Options
During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, Olin granted no stock options.
NOTE 15. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
On December 11, 2024, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program with a $1.3 billion authorization (2024 Repurchase Authorization). The Board of Directors previously authorized share repurchases with a $2.0 billion authorization on July 28, 2022 (2022 Repurchase Authorization). The 2024 Repurchase Authorization and 2022 Repurchase Authorization will terminate upon the purchase of $1.3 billion and $2.0 billion of common stock, respectively.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, 1.2 million shares of common stock were repurchased and retired at a total value of $30.3 million.

NOTE 16. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The chief operating decision maker (CODM) is the individual, or group of individuals, who assess financial performance and determines resource allocation. Management has identified our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) as the CODM. In arriving at this conclusion, we considered that the individual who receives the relevant financial information, which is primarily provided in the form of segment operations reviews, is ultimately our CEO. Further, our CEO assesses the reasonableness of resource allocation, primarily in the form of capital allocation and budgetary analysis, and reviews segment results and resource allocation summaries prepared by segment management, consistent with their view of the business as a whole.
We define segment results as income (loss) before interest expense, net, other operating income (expense), non-operating pension income, other income and income taxes, and includes the results of non-consolidated affiliates in segment results consistent with management’s monitoring of the operating segments. We have three operating segments: Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls, Epoxy, and Winchester. The three operating segments reflect the organization used by our management for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance and represents our reportable segments. Chlorine and caustic soda used in our Epoxy segment is transferred at cost from the Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment.
Cost of goods sold at Corporate is primarily attributed to environmental expense. Other segment items for each reportable segment include selling and administrative expenses and earnings (losses) from non-consolidated affiliates. Segment assets include only those assets which are directly identifiable to an operating segment. Assets in the corporate/other segment primarily include cash and cash equivalents, deferred taxes and other assets. Sales are attributed to geographic areas based on the customer location.

NOTE 17. ENVIRONMENTAL
We are party to various government and private environmental actions associated with past manufacturing facilities and former waste disposal sites. The condensed balance sheets included reserves for future environmental expenditures to investigate and remediate known sites as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

| Long-term reserve | Other noncurrent liabilities | | 128.5 | | | 126.3 | | | 125.2 | |
| Total reserve | | | $ | 158.5 | | | $ | 156.3 | | | $ | 155.2 | |
Environmental provisions charged to income, which are included in cost of goods sold, were $5.7 million and $4.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $10.9 million and $9.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Environmental exposures are difficult to assess for numerous reasons, including the identification of new sites, developments at sites resulting from investigatory studies, advances in technology, changes in environmental laws and regulations and their application, changes in regulatory authorities, the scarcity of reliable data pertaining to identified sites, the difficulty in assessing the involvement and financial capability of other Potentially Responsible Parties (PRPs), our ability to obtain contributions from other parties and the lengthy time periods over which site remediation occurs. It is possible that some of these matters (the outcomes of which are subject to various uncertainties) may be resolved unfavorably to us, which could materially adversely affect our financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
NOTE 18. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In April 2023, Shintech Incorporated (Shintech) filed a lawsuit against Olin Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary, Blue Cube Operations LLC (Blue Cube), in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas. Shintech alleged that Olin breached a long‑term VCM supply agreement relating to deliveries to Shintech’s polyvinyl chloride (PVC) facility in Freeport, TX, following a pricing dispute, a 2023 maintenance turnaround at Olin’s Freeport, TX VCM facility, and Olin’s declaration of force majeure at Olin’s Freeport, TX VCM facility. Olin supplies VCM to Shintech under a long-term supply contract. Shintech sought injunctive relief compelling performance under the supply agreement, specific performance of Olin’s alleged contractual obligations, and recovery of monetary damages.
After nearly three years of litigation, on February 10, 2026, the jury returned a verdict in favor of Shintech on its breach of contract claims. As a result of this verdict, the Company obtained new information related to this litigation loss contingency and recorded a pretax charge of $75.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 and $11.1 million in the first quarter of 2026, which is included in our condensed balance sheet under accrued liabilities. During the first half of 2026, we paid approximately $93 million to Shintech associated with the litigation matter and previously recorded accruals for a VCM pricing dispute with Shintech, and expect to pay approximately $100 million during the second half of 2026 associated with these previously accrued matters.
We, and our subsidiaries, are defendants in various other legal actions (including proceedings based on alleged exposures to asbestos) incidental to our past and current business activities. As of June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, our condensed balance sheets included accrued liabilities for these other legal actions of $16.3 million, $20.1 million and $18.8 million, respectively. These liabilities do not include costs associated with legal representation. Based on our analysis, and considering the inherent uncertainties associated with litigation, we do not believe that it is reasonably possible that these legal actions will materially adversely affect our financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
During the ordinary course of our business, contingencies arise resulting from an existing condition, situation or set of circumstances involving an uncertainty as to the realization of a possible gain contingency. In certain instances, such as environmental projects, we are responsible for managing the cleanup and remediation of an environmental site. There exists the possibility of recovering a portion of these costs from other parties. We account for gain contingencies in accordance with the provisions of ASC 450 “Contingencies” and, therefore, do not record gain contingencies and recognize income until it is earned and realizable.
NOTE 19. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
We are exposed to market risk in the normal course of our business operations due to our purchases of certain commodities, our ongoing investing and financing activities and our operations that use foreign currencies. The risk of loss can be assessed from the perspective of adverse changes in fair values, cash flows and future earnings. We have established policies
and procedures governing our management of market risks and the use of financial instruments to manage exposure to such risks. ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” (ASC 815) requires an entity to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the condensed balance sheets and measure those instruments at fair value. In accordance with ASC 815, we designate derivative contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted purchases of commodities and forecasted interest payments related to variable-rate borrowings and designate certain interest rate swaps as fair value hedges of fixed-rate borrowings. We do not enter into any derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
Energy costs, including electricity and natural gas, and certain raw materials used in our production processes are subject to price volatility. Depending on market conditions, we may enter into futures contracts, forward contracts, commodity swaps and put and call option contracts in order to reduce the impact of commodity price fluctuations. The majority of our commodity derivatives expire within one year.
We actively manage currency exposures that are associated with net monetary asset positions, currency purchases and sales commitments denominated in foreign currencies and foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities created in the normal course of business. We enter into forward sales and purchase contracts to manage currency risk to offset our net exposures, by currency, related to the foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities of our operations. All of the currency derivatives expire within one year and are for U.S. dollar (USD) equivalents. The counterparties to the forward contracts are large financial institutions; however, the risk of loss to us in the event of nonperformance by a counterparty could be significant to our financial position, cash flows or results of operations. We had outstanding forward contracts to sell foreign currency with notional values of $137.0 million, $134.0 million and $145.3 million as of June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, respectively.
Cash Flow Hedges
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the change in fair value of the derivative is recognized as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) until the hedged item is recognized in earnings.
We had the following notional amounts of outstanding commodity contracts that were entered into to hedge forecasted purchases:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| June 30, 2026 | | December 31, 2025 | | June 30, 2025 |
| Commodity Notional Value | ($ in millions) |
| Natural gas | $ | 98.4 | | | $ | 93.9 | | | $ | 50.1 | |
| Ethane | 42.2 | | | 34.7 | | | 47.3 | |
| Metals | 76.0 | | | 90.0 | | | 72.6 | |
| Total notional | $ | 216.6 | | | $ | 218.6 | | | $ | 170.0 | |
As of June 30, 2026, the counterparties to these commodity contracts were Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., Citibank, N.A., JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, Toronto Dominion Bank and Bank of America Corporation, all of which are major financial institutions.
We use cash flow hedges for certain raw material and energy costs such as copper, zinc, ethane, electricity and natural gas to provide a measure of stability in managing our exposure to price fluctuations associated with forecasted purchases of raw materials and energy used in our manufacturing process. At June 30, 2026, we had open derivative contract positions through 2028. If all open futures contracts had been settled on June 30, 2026, we would have recognized a pretax gain of $0.2 million.
If commodity prices were to remain at June 30, 2026 levels, approximately $0.1 million of deferred losses, net of tax, would be reclassified into earnings during the next twelve months. The actual effect on earnings will be dependent on actual commodity prices when the forecasted transactions occur.
Fair Value Hedges
We use interest rate swaps as a means of managing interest expense and floating interest rate exposure to optimal levels. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current earnings. We include the gain or loss on the hedged items (fixed-rate borrowings) in the same line item, interest expense, net, as the offsetting loss or gain on the related interest rate swaps. There were no outstanding interest rate swaps at June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025.
Financial Statement Impacts
We present our derivative assets and liabilities in our condensed balance sheets on a net basis whenever we have a
legally enforceable master netting agreement with the counterparty to our derivative contracts. We use these agreements to manage and substantially reduce our potential counterparty credit risk.
The following table summarizes the location and fair value of the derivative instruments on our condensed balance sheets:

Credit Risk and Collateral
By using derivative instruments, we are exposed to credit and market risk. If a counterparty fails to fulfill its performance obligations under a derivative contract, our credit risk will equal the fair value gain in a derivative. Generally, when the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, this indicates that the counterparty owes us, thus creating a repayment risk for us. When the fair value of a derivative contract is negative, we owe the counterparty and, therefore, assume no repayment risk. We minimize the credit (or repayment) risk in derivative instruments by entering into transactions with high-quality counterparties. We monitor our positions and the credit ratings of our counterparties, and we do not anticipate non-performance by the counterparties.
Based on the agreements with our various counterparties, cash collateral is required to be provided when the net fair value of the derivatives, with the counterparty, exceeds a specific threshold. If the threshold is exceeded, cash is either provided by the counterparty to us if the value of the derivatives is our asset, or cash is provided by us to the counterparty if the value of the derivatives is our liability. As of June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, this threshold was not exceeded. In all instances where we are party to a master netting agreement, we offset the receivable or payable recognized upon payment of cash collateral against the fair value amounts recognized for derivative instruments that have also been offset under such master netting agreements.
NOTE 20. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is defined as the price at which an asset could be exchanged in a current transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties or the amount that would be paid to transfer a liability to a new obligor, not the amount that would be paid to settle the liability with the creditor. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied. These valuation techniques involve some level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the instruments or market and the instruments’ complexity.
Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the condensed balance sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels, defined by ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurement” (ASC 820), and directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities, are as follows:
Level 1 — Inputs were unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
Level 2 — Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level 1) were either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life.
Level 3 — Inputs reflected management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration was given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.
We are required to separately disclose assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, from those measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Nonfinancial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis are intangible assets and goodwill, which are reviewed for impairment annually in the fourth quarter and/or when circumstances or other events indicate that impairment may have occurred.
Commodity Contracts
We use commodity derivative contracts for certain raw materials and energy costs such as copper, zinc, ethane, electricity and natural gas to provide a measure of stability in managing our exposure to price fluctuations. Commodity contract financial instruments were valued primarily based on prices and other relevant information observable in market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities including both forward and spot prices for commodities. All commodity financial instruments were valued as a Level 2 under the fair value measurements hierarchy.
Foreign Currency Contracts
We enter into forward sales and purchase contracts to manage currency risk resulting from purchase and sale commitments denominated in foreign currencies. Foreign currency contract financial instruments were valued primarily based on relevant information observable in market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities including both forward and spot prices for currencies. All foreign currency contract financial instruments were valued as a Level 2 under the fair value measurements hierarchy.
Financial Instruments
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. Since our long-term debt instruments may not be actively traded, the inputs used to measure the fair value of our long-term debt are based on current market rates for debt of similar risk and maturities and is classified as Level 2 in the fair value measurement hierarchy. As of June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, the fair value measurements of debt were $2,810.7 million, $2,834.3 million and $2,989.0 million, respectively.
Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
In addition to assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, we record assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as required by ASC 820. There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025 or June 30, 2025.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
BUSINESS BACKGROUND
Olin Corporation (Olin, the Company, we or our) is a Virginia corporation, incorporated in 1892, having its principal executive offices in Clayton, MO. We are a leading vertically integrated global manufacturer and distributor of chemical products and a leading U.S. manufacturer of ammunition. Our operations are concentrated in three business segments: Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls, Epoxy and Winchester. All of our business segments are capital-intensive manufacturing businesses. The Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment manufactures and sells chlorine and caustic soda, ethylene dichloride (EDC) and vinyl chloride monomer (VCM), methyl chloride, methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, perchloroethylene, hydrochloric acid, hydrogen, bleach products and potassium hydroxide. The Epoxy segment produces and sells a full range of epoxy materials and precursors, including aromatics (acetone and phenol), allyl chloride, epichlorohydrin, liquid epoxy resins, solid epoxy resins and formulated solutions products such as converted epoxy resins and additives. The Winchester segment produces and sells sporting ammunition, reloading components, small caliber military ammunition and components, industrial cartridges and clay targets, along with contracted U.S. military project revenue.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Overview
Net (loss) income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was $(13.3) million and $(96.3) million, respectively, compared to $(1.3) million and $0.1 million, for the prior year periods, respectively. The lower earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were primarily due to lower Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls operating results, partially offset by improved operating results from our Epoxy segment. Diluted net (loss) income per share was $(0.12) and $(0.85) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared to $(0.01) and $0.00 in the prior year periods, respectively.
Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls reported segment income of $53.4 million and $8.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively. Second quarter 2026 segment results were negatively impacted by $40.1 million from operating issues with the VCM plant at the Freeport, TX facility resulting in higher costs and reduced profit from lost sales. The remaining increase in segment results for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from the comparable prior year period was primarily due to higher caustic soda and EDC pricing and lower operating costs. The remaining decrease in segment results for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from the comparable prior year period was primarily due to lower product pricing and volumes, a $36.1 million charge associated with legacy litigation matters and higher raw material costs, primarily natural gas and electrical power costs, partially offset by lower operating costs.
Epoxy reported a segment income of $16.0 million and $13.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively. Epoxy segment results for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were higher than the comparable prior year period primarily due to higher product pricing and lower operating costs, partially offset by higher raw material costs. Epoxy segment results for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were higher than the comparable prior year period primarily due to lower operating costs and higher volumes. Global epoxy demand remains weak, and our U.S. and European Epoxy businesses remain significantly challenged by subsidized Asian competition.
Winchester reported segment income of $28.1 million and $43.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively. Winchester segment results for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were higher than the comparable prior year period primarily due to higher commercial ammunition pricing, higher volumes and improved military project revenue, partially offset by higher raw material costs, primarily commodity metals costs, and higher operating costs. Winchester segment results for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were lower than the comparable prior year period as higher raw material and operating costs were partially offset by increased commercial ammunition pricing, higher volumes and improved military project revenue.
Proposed Merger
On June 15, 2026, Olin entered into a definitive agreement with Huntsman Corporation (Huntsman) to combine in an all-stock merger of equals transaction (the Merger Agreement) to form a combined company, OlinHuntsman Corporation.
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the transaction, each issued and outstanding share of Huntsman common stock will be converted into the right to receive 0.5476 shares of Olin common stock. Upon completion of the transaction, existing Olin shareholders are expected to own approximately 54.5% of the combined company and existing Huntsman stockholders are expected to own approximately 45.5% of the combined company.
The consummation of the merger is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the receipt of required regulatory approvals and approval of the merger by both Olin shareholders and Huntsman stockholders. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2027.
For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, we incurred acquisition-related costs of $10.6 million which included costs associated with advisory, legal, accounting, and other professional fees.
Liquidity
On February 19, 2026, we executed an amendment to our existing $1,850.0 million senior credit facility (Senior Secured Credit Facility) which, among other things, modified the financial covenants to be less restrictive and incorporated guarantees and collateral by certain of our domestic subsidiaries. The maturity date for the Senior Secured Credit Facility remains March 14, 2030.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we had net borrowings of $202.3 million, with $210.0 million borrowed under our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility (defined below), which was partially used to satisfy the $109.7 million remaining principal amortization payments under the Secured Term Loan Facility (defined below).
International Trade
Tariffs and trade flows continue to influence the demand outlook amid varying market responses. Following the February 20, 2026, U.S. Supreme Court ruling that struck down broad emergency‑based tariffs issued under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), the U.S. administration has begun recalibrating its tariff strategy through other legal alternatives, including expanded use of Section 301 investigations. Following the U.S. Supreme Court ruling, certain importers have begun pursuing tariff‑recovery claims related to previously assessed duties. While we continue to monitor these developments, the financial impact of tariff‑recovery opportunities or obligations has not been significant to our businesses. We also continue to monitor the direct and indirect impact from tariffs on goods being imported into the United States and the competitiveness of our export products in markets that implement retaliatory tariffs.
Additionally, although Winchester procures the majority of metals domestically, we have realized price inflation that we believe is partially tariff‑driven for the domestic supply of copper, steel, and tungsten products. Winchester has also experienced secondary effects from suppliers consuming tariff‑impacted metals in their end products. Winchester continuously monitors market trends and works to mitigate those and other cost increases through economies of scale in procurement and efficient sourcing practices.
Middle East Conflict
The escalation of conflict in the Middle East, including escalating tensions with Iran, and the international response to these developments, has increased the level of economic and political uncertainty across global markets. The conflict has contributed to heightened volatility in global supply and demand fundamentals, particularly within energy‑linked and regionally sensitive markets. Sanctions and policy actions from the U.S. and other governments continue to evolve, and the broader implications of the conflict on global economic conditions remain fluid. We continue to closely monitor the changing environment. As of now, the direct impact on our operations has not been significant; however, we are unable to determine the future impact that the conflict and the corresponding global response may have on our business.
Other Items
On September 18, 2025, we announced a mutual decision with Mitsui & Co., Ltd. (Mitsui) to end our joint venture, Blue Water Alliance (BWA), by the end of 2025. This decision was made to evolve our EDC participation by emphasizing longer-term structural opportunities that enhance value and optionality. In connection with the continued cessation of the joint venture, during the first quarter 2026, we paid a cash distribution of $31.3 million to Mitsui for the liquidation of BWA working capital.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2025
Sales for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were $1,741.9 million compared to $1,758.3 million in the same period last year, a decrease of $16.4 million, or 1%. Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls sales decreased by $160.0 million primarily due to lower sales volumes, partially offset by higher pricing. Epoxy sales increased by $90.9 million, primarily due to higher volumes and higher pricing. Winchester sales increased by $52.7 million, primarily due to higher ammunition sales to commercial and military customers and increased military project revenue.
Gross margin increased $32.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the prior year period. Epoxy gross margin increased $39.6 million, primarily due to higher product pricing and lower operating costs, partially offset by higher raw material costs. Winchester gross margin increased $8.1 million, primarily due to higher product pricing and higher volumes, partially offset by higher raw material and operating costs. Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls gross margin decreased $14.7 million, primarily due to operating issues with the VCM plant at the Freeport, TX facility resulting in higher costs and reduced profit from lost sales, partially offset by higher product pricing and lower operating costs. Gross margin as a percentage of sales increased to 10% during the three months ended June 30, 2026 from 8% during the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were $102.7 million, an increase of $7.5 million from the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to an unfavorable foreign currency impact of $5.6 million and higher legal and legal-related settlement expenses of $2.1 million, partially offset by lower stock-based compensation costs of $3.0 million, which includes mark-to-market adjustments. Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales was 6% and 5% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Restructuring charges for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $10.5 million and $7.4 million, respectively. Restructuring charges include facility exit costs, lease and other contract termination costs, employee severance and related benefits costs, and the write off of equipment and facilities.
Acquisition-related costs for the three months ended June 30, 2026 of $10.6 million included costs associated with advisory, legal, accounting, and other professional fees associated with Olin’s pending merger with Huntsman.
Losses of non-consolidated affiliates relate to Olin’s equity share of the Hidrogenii, LLC joint venture.
Non-operating pension income includes all components of pension and other postretirement net periodic benefit (income) cost, other than service costs. Non-operating pension income was lower for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the prior year period primarily due to higher actuarial losses recognized to income.
The Company’s effective tax rate fluctuates from period to period based on several factors, including the geographic mix of earnings, the level of income or loss relative to available tax attributes, the recognition of valuation allowances in certain jurisdictions, and discrete tax items. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded income before income taxes of $3.8 million and an associated income tax provision of $17.1 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 450.0%. The income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily attributable to the income before income taxes for the period, an expense from prior year tax positions and the impact from a lower estimated annual effective tax rate compared with the prior quarter. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded a loss before income taxes of $(6.8) million and an associated income tax benefit of $(4.0) million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 58.8%. The income tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to a loss before taxes for the period, a release of valuation allowances on domestic state net operating losses and Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) investment tax credits recognized during the period.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2025
Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were $3,324.9 million compared to $3,402.5 million in the same period last year, a decrease of $77.6 million, or 2%. Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls sales decreased by $327.6 million primarily due to lower pricing and volumes. Epoxy sales increased by $114.8 million, primarily due to higher volumes and pricing. Winchester sales increased by $135.2 million, primarily due to increased military project revenue and higher ammunition sales to military and commercial customers.
Gross margin decreased $40.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the prior year period. Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls gross margin decreased $107.4 million, primarily due to lower product pricing and volumes, operating issues with the VCM plant at the Freeport, TX facility resulting in higher costs and reduced profit from lost sales and higher raw material costs, partially offset by lower operating costs. Epoxy gross margin increased $65.5 million, primarily due to lower operating costs and higher sales volumes. Winchester gross margin increased $2.7 million, primarily due to higher pricing and sales volumes, partially offset by higher raw material and operating costs. Gross margin as a percentage of sales decreased to 7% during the six months ended June 30, 2026 from 8% during the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Selling and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were $247.7 million, an increase of $51.5 million from the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to higher legal and legal-related settlement expenses of $39.3 million, which includes a first quarter 2026 charge of $36.1 million associated with legacy litigation matters, an unfavorable foreign currency impact of $9.4 million and higher stock-based compensation costs of $7.0 million, which includes mark-to-market adjustments. Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales was 7% and 6% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Restructuring charges for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $19.6 million and $11.4 million, respectively. Restructuring charges include facility exit costs, lease and other contract termination costs, employee severance and related benefits costs, and the write off of equipment and facilities.
Acquisition-related costs for the six months ended June 30, 2026 of $10.6 million included costs associated with advisory, legal, accounting, and other professional fees associated with Olin’s pending merger with Huntsman.
Losses of non-consolidated affiliates relate to Olin’s equity share of the Hidrogenii, LLC joint venture.
Interest expense, net for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 included $0.2 million and $3.3 million, respectively, for the write-off of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs associated with financing transactions. Without these items, interest expense, net, for the six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased $3.4 million from June 30, 2025, primarily due to lower average interest rates.
Non-operating pension income includes all components of pension and other postretirement net periodic benefit (income) cost, other than service costs. Non-operating pension income was lower for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the prior year period primarily due to higher actuarial losses recognized to income.
The Company’s effective tax rate fluctuates from period to period based on several factors, including the geographic mix of earnings, the level of income or loss relative to available tax attributes, the recognition of valuation allowances in certain jurisdictions, and discrete tax items. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded a loss before income taxes of $(114.5) million and an associated income tax benefit of $(18.2) million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 15.9%. The income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily attributable to the loss before income taxes for the period and IRA production tax credits recognized during the period, partially offset by an expense from prior year tax positions.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded a loss before income taxes of $(4.7) million and an associated income tax benefit of $(3.1) million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 66.0%. The income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to a loss before taxes for the period, an income tax benefit associated with a release of valuation allowances on domestic state net operating losses and IRA investment tax credits recognized during the period.
SEGMENT RESULTS
We define segment results as income (loss) before interest expense, net, other operating income (expense), non-operating pension income, other income and income taxes, and includes the results of non-consolidated affiliates in segment results consistent with management’s monitoring of the operating segments. We have three operating segments: Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls, Epoxy and Winchester. The three operating segments reflect the organization used by our management for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance and represents our reportable segments. Chlorine and caustic soda used in our Epoxy segment is transferred at cost from the Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment.

Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls
Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2025
Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls sales for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were $819.5 million compared to $979.5 million for the same period in 2025, a decrease of $160.0 million, or 16%. The sales decrease was due to lower sales volumes, primarily as a result of lower trading volumes associated with Blue Water Alliance, partially offset by higher pricing.
Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment income was $53.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to segment income of $64.9 million for the same period in 2025, a decrease of $11.5 million. The decrease in segment income was primarily due to operating issues with the VCM plant at the Freeport, TX facility resulting in higher costs and reduced profit from lost sales ($40.1 million), and lower volumes ($3.8 million). These decreases were partially offset by lower operating costs ($15.9 million), higher pricing ($13.5 million), lower product purchases from other parties ($2.4 million) and lower raw material costs ($0.6 million). Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment results included depreciation and amortization expense of $98.1 million and $106.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2025
Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls sales for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were $1,576.4 million compared to $1,904.0 million for the same period in 2025, a decrease of $327.6 million, or 17%. The sales decrease was due to lower sales
volumes, primarily as a result of lower trading volumes associated with Blue Water Alliance, and lower pricing.
Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment income was $8.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to segment income of $143.2 million for the same period in 2025, a decrease of $134.3 million. The decrease in segment income was due to lower pricing ($50.0 million), lower volumes ($47.8 million), operating issues with the VCM plant at the Freeport, TX facility resulting in higher costs and reduced profit from lost sales ($40.1 million), a charge associated with legacy litigation matters ($36.1 million) and higher raw material costs ($29.0 million), primarily natural gas and electrical power costs. These decreases were partially offset by lower operating costs ($59.4 million) and lower costs associated with product purchased from other parties ($9.3 million). Chlor Alkali Products and Vinyls segment results included depreciation and amortization expense of $191.3 million and $213.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Epoxy
Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2025
Epoxy sales for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were $422.1 million compared to $331.2 million for the same period in 2025, an increase of $90.9 million, or 27%. The sales increase was due to higher volumes ($50.3 million), higher product pricing ($33.3 million) and a favorable effect of foreign currency translation ($7.3 million).
Epoxy segment income was $16.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to segment loss of $(23.7) million for the same period in 2025. The increase in segment results of $39.7 million was due to higher product pricing ($33.3 million), lower operating costs ($14.8 million) and higher volumes ($6.1 million), partially offset by higher raw material costs ($14.5 million), primarily benzene and propylene. A significant percentage of our Euro denominated sales are from products manufactured within Europe. As a result, the impact of foreign currency translation on revenue is primarily offset by the impact of foreign currency translation on raw materials and manufacturing costs also denominated in Euros. Epoxy segment results included depreciation and amortization expense of $11.7 million and $13.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2025
Epoxy sales for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were $777.7 million compared to $662.9 million for the same period in 2025, an increase of $114.8 million, or 17%. The sales increase was due to higher volumes ($83.2 million), a favorable effect of foreign currency translation ($22.8 million) and higher product pricing ($8.8 million).
Epoxy segment income was $13.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to segment loss of $(52.1) million for the same period in 2025. The increase in segment results of $65.2 million was due to lower operating costs ($39.5 million), higher volumes ($11.7 million), higher product pricing ($8.8 million) and lower raw material costs ($5.2 million), primarily benzene and propylene. A significant percentage of our Euro denominated sales are from products manufactured within Europe. As a result, the impact of foreign currency translation on revenue is primarily offset by the impact of foreign currency translation on raw materials and manufacturing costs also denominated in Euros. Epoxy segment results included depreciation and amortization expense of $23.6 million and $25.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Winchester
Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2025
Winchester sales were $500.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $447.6 million for the same period in 2025, an increase of $52.7 million, or 12%. The sales increase was due to higher sales to commercial customers ($22.7 million), higher sales to military customers and military project revenue ($27.0 million) and higher sales to law enforcement agencies ($3.0 million).
Winchester segment income was $28.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $25.0 million for the same period in 2025, an increase of $3.1 million. The increase in segment results was primarily due to higher product pricing ($18.6 million) and higher sales volume and military project revenue ($9.2 million), partially offset by higher raw material and operating costs ($24.7 million), including commodity metal and propellant costs. Winchester segment income included depreciation and amortization expense of $8.8 million and $7.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2025
Winchester sales were $970.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $835.6 million for the same period in 2025, an increase of $135.2 million, or 16%. The sales increase was due to higher sales to military customers and
military project revenue ($101.4 million) and higher sales to commercial customers ($35.6 million), partially offset by lower sales to law enforcement agencies ($1.8 million).
Winchester segment income was $43.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $47.8 million for the same period in 2025, a decrease of $4.5 million. The decrease in segment results was primarily due to higher raw material and operating costs ($38.9 million), including commodity metal and propellant costs, partially offset by higher product pricing ($23.7 million) and higher sales volume and military project revenue ($10.7 million). Winchester segment income included depreciation and amortization expense of $17.7 million and $17.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Corporate/Other
Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2025
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, charges to income for environmental investigatory and remedial activities were $5.7 million compared to $4.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. These charges related primarily to expected future investigatory and remedial activities associated with past manufacturing operations and former waste disposal sites.
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, other corporate and unallocated costs were $25.3 million compared to $19.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $5.4 million. The increase was primarily due to an unfavorable foreign currency impact ($5.6 million), partially offset by lower stock-based compensation costs ($3.0 million), which includes mark-to-market adjustments.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2025
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, charges to income for environmental investigatory and remedial activities were $10.9 million compared to $9.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. These charges related primarily to expected future investigatory and remedial activities associated with past manufacturing operations and former waste disposal sites.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, other corporate and unallocated costs were $58.5 million compared to $39.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $18.6 million. The increase was primarily due to an unfavorable foreign currency impact ($9.4 million) and higher stock-based compensation costs ($7.0 million), which includes mark-to-market adjustments.
Restructurings
Pretax restructuring charges related to our restructuring and optimization efforts include facility exit costs, lease and other contract termination costs, employee severance and related benefits costs and the write-off of equipment and facilities.
Pretax restructuring charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended June 30, | | Six Months Ended June 30, |
| 2026 | | 2025 | | 2026 | | 2025 |
| Restructuring Charges | ($ in millions) |
| Restructuring charges | $ | 10.5 | | | $ | 7.4 | | | $ | 19.6 | | | $ | 11.4 | |
We have included additional information with respect to our restructuring charges within Item 1, within Note 4, “Restructuring Charges” of our notes to condensed financial statements.
OUTLOOK
In the second quarter 2026, we saw sequential improvement across all our business segments despite significant global volatility. We expect third quarter 2026 operating results from our Chemical businesses to be comparable to the second quarter 2026, as ongoing operating issues at our VCM facility in Freeport, TX and weaker EDC pricing are offset by seasonally stronger caustic soda demand. In the third quarter 2026, we expect our Winchester business to experience seasonally improved commercial demand. Overall, we expect Olin’s third quarter 2026 operating results to be comparable to or slightly lower than our second quarter 2026 levels.
Other corporate and unallocated costs in 2026 are expected to be higher than the $85.7 million in 2025.
In 2026, we expect to incur approximately $35 million to $40 million in acquisition-related costs associated with our anticipated merger with Huntsman.
During 2026, we anticipate environmental expenses in the $25 million to $30 million range, compared to $24.5 million in 2025.
We expect non-operating pension income in 2026 to be lower than the $20.6 million in 2025. Based on our plan assumptions and estimates, we do not expect to make any cash contributions to our domestic qualified defined benefit pension plan in 2026. We have several international qualified defined benefit pension plans for which we anticipate cash contributions of less than $5 million in 2026.
During 2026, we expect to pay approximately $195 million to Shintech associated with the litigation matter discussed within Note 18 “Commitments and Contingencies,” of the notes to condensed financial statements, and previously recorded accruals for a VCM pricing dispute with Shintech.
In 2026, we currently expect our capital spending to be approximately $200 million. We expect 2026 depreciation and amortization expense to be approximately $475 million.
We currently believe the 2026 effective tax rate will be in the 20% to 30% range. We expect to receive refunds from prior years related to the clean hydrogen production tax credit under Section 45V as part of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. Factoring in these refunds, we expect cash taxes to be in the range of a net refund of $20 million to a net payment of $20 million.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
Environmental provisions charged to income, which are included in cost of goods sold, were $5.7 million and $4.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $10.9 million and $9.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
The following table summarizes the environmental liability activity:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Six Months Ended June 30, |
| 2026 | | 2025 |
| Environmental Liabilities | ($ in millions) |
| Balance at beginning of year | $ | 156.3 | | | $ | 156.5 | |
| Charges to income | 10.9 | | | 9.8 | |
| Remedial and investigatory spending | (8.7) | | | (11.1) | |
| | | |
| Balance at end of period | $ | 158.5 | | | $ | 155.2 | |
Environmental investigatory and remediation activities spending was associated with former waste disposal sites and past manufacturing operations. Spending in 2026 for investigatory and remedial efforts, the timing of which is subject to regulatory approvals and other uncertainties, is estimated to be approximately $30 million. Cash outlays for remedial and investigatory activities associated with former waste disposal sites and past manufacturing operations were not charged to income, but instead, were charged to reserves established for such costs identified and expensed to income in prior periods. Associated costs of investigatory and remedial activities are provided for in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles governing probability and the ability to reasonably estimate future costs. Our ability to estimate future costs depends on whether our investigatory and remedial activities are in preliminary or advanced stages. With respect to unasserted claims, we accrue liabilities for costs that, in our experience, we expect to incur to protect our interests against those unasserted claims. Our accrued liabilities for unasserted claims amounted to $11.4 million at June 30, 2026. With respect to asserted claims, we accrue liabilities based on remedial investigation, feasibility study, remedial action and operation, maintenance and monitoring (OM&M) expenses that, in our experience, we expect to incur in connection with the asserted claims. Required site OM&M expenses are estimated and accrued in their entirety for required periods not exceeding 30 years, which reasonably approximates the typical duration of long-term site OM&M. Charges to income for investigatory and remedial efforts may be material to our operating results in 2026.
The condensed balance sheets included reserves for future environmental expenditures to investigate and remediate known sites as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | June 30, 2026 | | December 31, 2025 | | June 30, 2025 |
| Environmental Reserve | Balance Sheet Location | | ($ in millions) |
| Current reserve | Accrued Liabilities | | $ | 30.0 | | | $ | 30.0 | | | $ | 30.0 | |
| Long-term reserve | Other noncurrent liabilities | | 128.5 | | | 126.3 | | | 125.2 | |
| Total reserve | | | $ | 158.5 | | | $ | 156.3 | | | $ | 155.2 | |
These amounts do not take into account any discounting of future expenditures or any consideration of insurance recoveries or advances in technology. These liabilities are reassessed periodically to determine if environmental circumstances have changed and/or remediation efforts and our estimate of related costs have changed. As a result of these reassessments, future charges to income may be made for additional liabilities.
Environmental exposures are difficult to assess for numerous reasons, including the identification of new sites, developments at sites resulting from investigatory studies, advances in technology, changes in environmental laws and regulations and their application, changes in regulatory authorities, the scarcity of reliable data pertaining to identified sites, the difficulty in assessing the involvement and financial capability of other Potentially Responsible Parties (PRPs), our ability to obtain contributions from other parties and the lengthy time periods over which site remediation occurs. It is possible that some of these matters (the outcomes of which are subject to various uncertainties) may be resolved unfavorably to us, which could materially adversely affect our financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
LEGAL MATTERS AND CONTINGENCIES
Discussion of legal matters and contingencies can be referred to under Item 1, within Note 18, “Commitments and Contingencies” of our notes to condensed financial statements.

Operating Activities
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, net cash provided by operating activities decreased $167.0 million compared with the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to lower operating results and a larger use of cash for working capital compared to the prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, working capital increased $183.0 million compared to an increase of $112.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Receivables increased $149.0 million, primarily due to the timing of sales during the second quarter 2026 compared to the fourth quarter 2025. Inventories increased by $65.9 million, which reflects normal seasonal growth. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased $42.5 million from December 31, 2025, which includes a decrease of approximately $93 million of previously accrued reserves for payments associated with a litigation matter discussed within Note 18 “Commitments and Contingencies,” of the notes to condensed financial statements.
Investing Activities
Capital spending was $72.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $92.4 million for the comparable period in 2025. For the full year 2026, we expect our capital spending to be in the $200 million range. Our capital spending forecast represents normal capital spending to maintain our current operating facilities. We expect 2026 depreciation and amortization expense to be in the $475 million range.
On April 18, 2025, Olin acquired AMMO, Inc.’s small caliber ammunition manufacturing assets for total consideration of $55.8 million. The acquisition was financed with cash on hand.

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, we paid debt issuance costs of $2.1 million associated with the Senior Secured Credit Facility. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we paid debt issuance costs of $12.0 million associated with the 2033 Notes and the 2025 Senior Credit Facility (defined below).
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, 1.2 million shares of common stock were repurchased and retired at a total value of $30.3 million.
In connection with the continued cessation of our BWA joint venture, during the first quarter 2026, we paid a cash distribution of $31.3 million to Mitsui for the liquidation of BWA working capital.
We issued 0.2 million and less than 0.1 million shares representing stock options exercised for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, with a total value of $3.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively.
The percentage of total debt to total capitalization increased to 63.9% as of June 30, 2026 from 60.2% as of December 31, 2025, as a result of lower shareholders’ equity, primarily due to our operating results, dividends paid, and a distribution to our non-controlling interest and a higher level of debt outstanding.
In the first and second quarters of 2026 and 2025, we paid a quarterly dividend of $0.20 per share. Dividends paid for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, were $45.6 million and $46.0 million, respectively.
The payment of cash dividends is subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors and will be determined in light of then-current conditions, including our earnings, our operations, our financial condition, our capital requirements and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors. In the future, our Board of Directors may change our dividend policy, including the frequency or amount of any dividend, in light of then-existing conditions.
Liquidity and Other Financing Arrangements
Our principal sources of liquidity are from cash and cash equivalents, cash flow from operations and borrowings under our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and our 2024 Receivables Financing Agreement (as defined below). Additionally, we believe that we have access to the high-yield debt and equity markets.
On March 14, 2025, Olin entered into a $1,850.0 million senior credit facility (2025 Senior Credit Facility), which increased the borrowing limit of our then-existing $1,550.0 million senior credit facility (2022 Senior Credit Facility) by $300.0 million and extended the maturity date from October 11, 2027 to March 14, 2030. The 2025 Senior Credit Facility includes a term loan facility with aggregate commitments of $650.0 million (2025 Term Loan Facility), which replaced Olin’s then-existing $350.0 million term loan facility (2022 Term Loan Facility), and a revolving credit facility with aggregate commitments of $1,200.0 million (2025 Revolving Credit Facility), which replaced Olin’s then-existing $1,200.0 million revolving credit facility (2022 Revolving Credit Facility).
On February 19, 2026, we executed an amendment to the 2025 Senior Credit Facility (Senior Secured Credit Facility) which, among other things, modified the financial covenants to be less restrictive and incorporated guarantees and collateral by certain of our domestic subsidiaries. The Senior Secured Credit Facility maintained the 2025 Term Loan Facility, as amended (Secured Term Loan Facility, and collectively with the 2025 Term Loan Facility and the 2022 Term Loan Facility, the Term Loan Facilities), and the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility, as amended (Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, and collectively with the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility and 2022 Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolving Credit Facilities). The amendment required all remaining principal amortization payments under the Secured Term Loan Facility to be satisfied. Borrowings under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility were used to satisfy the $109.7 million remaining principal amortization payments under the Secured Term Loan Facility. The maturity date for the Senior Secured Credit Facility remains March 14, 2030. At June 30, 2026, we had $210.0 million of borrowings and $0.4 million of letters of credit issued under our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and $989.6 million of undrawn commitments.
The obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of our domestic subsidiaries. The obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facility are also secured by liens on substantially all of Olin’s and the subsidiary guarantors’ personal property (Collateral), other than certain principal properties and capital stock of subsidiaries, and subject to certain other exceptions. Substantially all guarantees under the Senior Secured Credit Facility and liens on Collateral will be released automatically upon notice by Olin, or after September 30, 2027, at which time all covenant reliefs expire.
Under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, we may select various floating rate borrowing options. The actual interest rate paid on borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facility is based on a pricing grid which is dependent upon the net leverage ratio as calculated under the terms of the applicable facility for the prior fiscal quarter. The Senior Secured Credit Facility includes various customary restrictive covenants, including restrictions related to the ratio of secured debt to earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization (net leverage ratio) and the ratio of earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization to interest expense (coverage ratio). The calculation of secured debt in our net leverage ratio excludes borrowings under the 2024 Receivables Financing Agreement (defined below), up to a maximum of $425.0 million.
On March 14, 2025, Olin issued $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% senior notes due April 1, 2033 (2033 Notes), in a private offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Interest on the 2033 Notes began accruing from March 14, 2025 and is paid semi-annually beginning on October 1, 2025, and every six months thereafter.
Proceeds from the 2033 Notes, together with borrowings under the 2025 Senior Credit Facility, were used to redeem the $108.6 million 9.50% senior notes due 2025 (2025 Notes), redeem the $500.0 million 5.125% senior notes due 2027 (2027 Notes), refinance the then-existing 2022 Senior Credit Facility, comprised of $505.0 million of borrowings under the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility and $332.5 million of borrowings under the 2022 Term Loan Facility, and pay related fees and expenses.
As of June 30, 2026, no event of default had occurred under any of our outstanding debt agreements that would permit the acceleration of the debt if not cured, and we were in compliance with all covenants and restrictions under all our outstanding debt agreements. In the future, our ability to generate sufficient operating cash flows, among other factors, will determine the amounts available to be borrowed under these facilities. As a result of our restrictive covenant related to the net leverage ratio, the maximum additional borrowings available to us could be limited in the future. The limitation, if an amendment or waiver from our lenders is not obtained, could restrict our ability to borrow the maximum amounts available under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and the 2024 Receivables Financing Agreement (defined below). As of June 30, 2026, there were no covenants or other restrictions that limited our ability to borrow.
We maintain a $500.0 million receivables financing agreement (2024 Receivables Financing Agreement) that is scheduled to mature on November 19, 2027. Under the 2024 Receivables Financing Agreement, our eligible trade receivables are used for collateralized borrowings and continue to be serviced by us. In addition, the 2024 Receivables Financing Agreement incorporates the net leverage ratio covenant that is contained in the Senior Secured Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2026, we had $442.0 million drawn under the 2024 Receivables Financing Agreement, $640.8 million of our trade receivables were pledged as collateral and we had $50.6 million of additional borrowing capacity, which was limited by our borrowing base.
At June 30, 2026, we had total letters of credit of $161.2 million outstanding, of which $0.4 million were issued under our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility. The letters of credit were used to support certain long-term debt obligations, workers compensation insurance policies, plant closure and post-closure obligations, international payment obligations and international pension funding requirements.
Our current debt structure is used to fund our business operations. As of June 30, 2026, we had long-term borrowings, including the current installment, of $3,029.1 million, of which $1,263.1 million were at variable rates. Included within long-term borrowings on the condensed balance sheets were deferred debt issuance costs of $18.6 million as of June 30, 2026.
We believe, based on current and projected levels of cash flow from our operations, together with our cash and cash equivalents on hand and the availability to borrow under our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and 2024 Receivables Financing Agreement, we have the ability to access sufficient liquidity to meet our short-term and long-term needs, to make required payments of interest on our debt, fund our operating needs, working capital and our capital expenditure requirements, and comply with the financial ratios and other covenants and restrictions in our debt agreements.
On December 11, 2024, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program with a $1.3 billion authorization (2024 Repurchase Authorization). The Board of Directors previously authorized share repurchases with a $2.0 billion authorization on July 28, 2022 (2022 Repurchase Authorization). The 2024 Repurchase Authorization and 2022 Repurchase Authorization will terminate upon the purchase of $1.3 billion and $2.0 billion of common stock, respectively.
As of June 30, 2026, a cumulative total of 27.4 million shares of common stock have been repurchased and retired at a total value of $1,351.1 million under the 2022 Repurchase Authorization program, and $1,948.9 million of common stock remained authorized to be repurchased under the 2022 Repurchase Authorization and 2024 Repurchase Authorization programs.
We have registered the sale of an undetermined number of securities with the SEC, so that, from time-to-time, we may issue, offer and sell debt securities, preferred stock, common stock and/or warrants to purchase any such securities pursuant to a registration statement.
Credit Ratings
We receive ratings from three independent credit rating agencies: Fitch Ratings (Fitch), Moody’s Investor Service (Moody's) and Standard & Poor's (S&P). The following table summarizes our credit ratings as of June 30, 2026:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Credit Rating Agency | | Long-term Rating | | Outlook |
| Fitch Ratings | | BB+ | | Negative |
| Moody’s Investors Service | | Ba2 | | Negative |
| Standard & Poor’s | | BB | | Negative |
On February 20, 2026, Fitch downgraded Olin to BB+ (from BBB-) and revised its outlook from stable to negative. On February 25, 2026, Moody’s downgraded Olin to Ba2 (from Ba1) and affirmed its negative outlook. On February 18, 2026, S&P downgraded Olin to BB (from BB+) and affirmed its negative outlook.
Contractual Obligations
Purchasing commitments are utilized in our normal course of business for our projected needs. We have supply contracts with various third parties for certain raw materials including ethylene, electricity, propylene and benzene. These agreements are maintained through long-term cost-based contracts that provide us with a reliable supply of key raw materials. There have been no material changes in our contractual obligations and commitments as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, other than those which occur in the ordinary course of business.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Refer to “Critical Accounting Estimates” contained in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for a complete discussion of our critical accounting estimates. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
New Accounting Pronouncements
Discussion of new accounting pronouncements can be referred to under Item 1, within Note 2, “Recent Accounting Pronouncements.”
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risk in the normal course of our business operations due to our purchases of certain commodities, our ongoing investing and financing activities and our operations that use foreign currencies. The risk of loss can be assessed from the perspective of adverse changes in fair values, cash flows and future earnings. We have established policies and procedures governing our management of market risks and the use of financial instruments to manage exposure to such risks.
Energy costs, including electricity and natural gas, and certain raw materials used in our production processes are subject to price volatility. Depending on market conditions, we may enter into futures contracts, forward contracts, commodity swaps and put and call option contracts in order to reduce the impact of commodity price fluctuations. As of June 30, 2026, we maintained open positions on commodity contracts with a notional value totaling $216.6 million ($218.6 million at December 31, 2025, and $170.0 million at June 30, 2025). Assuming a hypothetical 10% increase in commodity prices which are currently hedged, as of June 30, 2026, we would experience a $21.7 million ($21.9 million at December 31, 2025 and $17.0 million at June 30, 2025) increase in our cost of inventory purchased, which would be substantially offset by a corresponding increase in the value of related hedging instruments.
We transact business in various foreign currencies other than the USD which exposes us to movements in exchange rates which may impact revenue and expenses, assets and liabilities and cash flows. Our significant foreign currency exposure is denominated with European currencies, primarily the Euro, although exposures also exist in other currencies of Asia Pacific, Latin America, Middle East and Africa. For all derivative positions, we evaluated the effects of a 10% shift in exchange rates between those currencies and the USD, holding all other assumptions constant. Unfavorable currency movements of 10% would negatively affect the fair values of the derivatives held to hedge currency exposures by $13.7 million. These unfavorable changes would generally have been offset by favorable changes in the values of the underlying exposures.
We are exposed to changes in interest rates primarily as a result of our investing and financing activities. Our current debt structure is used to fund business operations, and commitments from banks under our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and our 2024 Receivables Financing Agreement are additional sources of liquidity. As of June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, we had long-term borrowings, including current installments, of $3,029.1 million, $2,827.3 million and $2,996.7 million, respectively, of which $1,263.1 million, $1,060.8 million and $1,231.8 million at June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, respectively, were issued at variable rates. Included within long-term borrowings on the condensed balance sheets were deferred debt issuance costs.
Assuming no changes in the $1,263.1 million of variable-rate debt levels from June 30, 2026, we estimate that a hypothetical change of 100-basis points in the secured overnight financing rate (SOFR) would impact annual interest expense by $12.6 million.
If the actual changes in commodities, foreign currency, or interest pricing is substantially different than expected, the net impact of commodity risk, foreign currency risk, or interest rate risk on our cash flow may be materially different than that disclosed above.
We do not enter into any derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2026. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information Olin is required to disclose in the reports that it files or submits with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and to ensure that information we are required to disclose in such reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2026, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Discussion of legal matters and contingencies can be referred to under Item 1, within Note 18, “Commitments and Contingencies.”
On April 9, 2026, the State of Texas commenced a lawsuit against Blue Cube in the District Court of Travis County, Texas. The petition alleges various emissions events at Blue Cube’s Freeport, TX facility and alleges instances of non-compliance with the Texas Clean Air Act and Texas Commission on Environmental Quality rules and permits. The relief sought in the complaint includes a request for civil penalties, reasonable attorney’s fees and costs, and injunctive relief. Blue Cube is evaluating the allegations and intends to defend the matter. At this time, we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of this matter.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
On June 15, 2026, Olin entered into a definitive agreement with Huntsman Corporation (Huntsman) to combine in an all-stock merger of equals transaction (the Merger Agreement) to form a combined company, OlinHuntsman Corporation. For additional information regarding the merger, please see our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 16, 2026 and our Registration Statement on Form S-4/A filed on July 10, 2026 (the Registration Statement) and declared effective by the SEC on July 13, 2026. In addition to the risks we identified in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, we have identified the following risks related to the pending merger:
The merger may not be completed on the currently anticipated timeline, or at all, and the Merger Agreement may be terminated in accordance with its terms.
Completion of the merger remains subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, including approval by Olin shareholders and Huntsman stockholders, receipt of required regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of other conditions specified in the Merger Agreement.
There can be no assurance that all required conditions will be satisfied (or waived) on a timely basis or at all, or that the merger will be completed on the currently anticipated timeline. Delays in obtaining regulatory approvals, litigation relating to the transaction, the imposition of conditions, limitations, divestiture requirements or other remedies by governmental authorities, or the failure to satisfy other closing conditions could delay or prevent completion of the merger. In addition, the Merger Agreement may be terminated under specified circumstances, and Olin could be required to pay a termination fee of $121 million or reimburse certain expenses of Huntsman in an amount up to $30 million.
If the merger is delayed or not completed, Olin may not realize the anticipated strategic, operational and financial benefits of the transaction, including expected synergies and other efficiencies, and Olin’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.
The pending merger may adversely affect Olin’s business, operations and financial results, and the anticipated benefits of the merger may not be realized.
The announcement and pendency of the merger may create uncertainty among employees, customers, suppliers and other business partners and may adversely affect Olin’s ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel, maintain commercial relationships and execute its business strategy. In addition, management is required to devote significant time and resources to merger-related matters, including regulatory approval efforts and integration planning activities, which may divert attention from day-to-day operations and other strategic opportunities.
Olin has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant transaction, advisory, legal, accounting, consulting, regulatory, retention and integration planning costs, many of which will be incurred regardless of whether the merger is completed. Actual costs may exceed current estimates, and additional unanticipated costs may arise.
Further, the Merger Agreement contains customary covenants that restrict Olin’s ability to undertake certain actions without Huntsman’s consent prior to closing, which may limit operational flexibility and the ability to pursue certain business opportunities during the pendency of the transaction.
Even if the merger is completed, there can be no assurance that the anticipated strategic benefits, operational efficiencies, cost savings and other synergies expected from the transaction will be realized within the anticipated timeframe or at all. If the merger is delayed, not completed or the anticipated benefits of the transaction are not realized, Olin’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.
