Olin Corporation (OLN) stock plunged 8.4% in pre-market trading on Friday as the chemical and ammunition manufacturer provided a disappointing earnings guidance for the first quarter of 2025.
The company projected adjusted EBITDA for Q1 2025 to be in the range of just $150 million to $170 million, significantly lower than prior quarters and missing market expectations. CEO Ken Lane cited expected lower volumes and pricing pressure across Olin's key products like chlorine, caustic soda, and ethylene dichloride as the primary drivers behind the weak outlook.
Olin's epoxy business is also facing challenges from subdued global demand and intense competition from subsidized Asian rivals, further weighing on the company's near-term earnings prospects.
