Consolidated Overview

The net sales increase of 13% included revenue from the merger of $112 million and favorable foreign currency changes of $36 million that were partially offset by a $52 million decrease in selling prices primarily due to the pass-through of lower raw material costs and a 1% organic volume decline which was attributed to strength in our consumer solutions product categories being more than offset by competitive pressures in South America and general market softness in Europe.

Americas

The net sales increase in the Americas segment included a 2% organic volume growth, revenue from the merger of $42 million and favorable foreign currency changes of $8 million that were partially offset by a $38 million decrease in selling prices primarily due to the pass-through of lower raw material costs and competitive pressures from imports in South America.

The adjusted EBITDA increase included a contribution from the merger of $5 million and improved organic growth in North America partially offset by unfavorable impacts from price cost spread of $4 million.

Rest of World

The net sales increase in the Rest of World segment included revenue from the merger of $70 million and a $28 million favorable impact from foreign currency changes partially offset by a 5% organic volume decline which was primarily attributed to general market softness in Europe and a $14 million decrease in selling prices primarily due to the pass-through of lower raw material costs.

The adjusted EBITDA increase included a contribution from the merger of $3 million and favorable impacts from price cost spread of $4 million as the result of synergy realization and mix improvement.

Fiscal Year 2026 Guidance - Reaffirmed
