THE WOODLANDS, Texas, Jan. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Huntsman Corporation (NYSE: HUN) now expects fourth quarter 2023 adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $40 million to $45 million compared to our original guidance range of $65 million to $90 million as communicated on October 31, 2023. The lower range compared to prior guidance is primarily due to continued pressure in our Polyurethanes segment, including lower equity earnings and the negative impact of an unplanned outage during the quarter at the Rotterdam, Netherlands facility, which has now been resolved. These are preliminary results and are subject to completion of the corporation's annual audit process.

Huntsman Corporation will hold a conference call on Thursday, February 22, 2024, at 10:00 a.m. ET to discuss its fourth quarter 2023 financial results. Following some opening remarks, the call will move into a question and answer session.

The earnings press release, including financial statements and segment information, will be distributed after the market closes on Wednesday, February 21, 2024. The earnings slide presentation and prepared remarks will be available at www.huntsman.com/investors after the market closes on Wednesday, February 21, 2024.
