Analyst Update: Facility Closures, Price Increase, Management Changes, and Common Stock Purchase

Reviewed by: Rohit Tuli, CFA®  

The US stock markets on Wednesday ended on a negative note amid the tumbling crude oil prices and light volume trade. In the last trading session of 2014, S&P 500 closed at 2,058.90, down 1.03%, NASDAQ Composite declined 0.87% to 4,736.05, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average edged 0.89% lower to finish the day at 17,823.07. However, the European stocks wrapped up the year on a positive note and were closed for trading on December 31, 2014. The Asian markets on the other hand ended the Wednesday's trading session on a mixed note as rising concerns over Greece's political crisis rattled the markets. Further, confirmation from HSBC that its index of China's manufacturing activity had contracted in December indicated a slowing Chinese economy despite government efforts to shore up development.

Manufacturer of Chlor Alkali Products, Chemical Distribution and Winchester, Olin Corporation (Olin) announced its plans to permanently close the portion of its Becancour, Quebec, Canada facility that has been shut down since late June 2014. The plant will now mainly focus on bleach and hydrochloric acid, which are value-added products, along with caustic soda.

OMNOVA Solutions Inc.'s (OMNOVA Solutions) Paper, Carpet and Specialty Ingredients business has announced a price increase of $0.03/dry pound on all latex products sold into North American markets, effective January 1, 2015, or as contracts allow.

Orion Engineered Carbons S.A (Orion Engineered Carbons) announced Dr. Barry Snyder's resignation from his position as Senior Vice President, Innovation, effective December 31, 2014. Earlier the Company posted its Q3 2014 results with adjusted EBITDA of €53.2 million up 5.1% YoY.

Orion Marine Group Inc (Orion Marine Group) has elected Mark Stauffer to its Board of Directors.

Mr. Stauffer, President of Orion Marine Group, succeeds CEO, Mike Pearson effective January 1, 2015. Earlier in its third quarter 2014 earnings release, the Company reported net income of $3.0 million or $0.11 diluted earnings per share as compared to a net loss of $0.9 million or $0.03 diluted loss per share for Q3 2013.
