This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is a combined report being filed by Dow Inc. and The Dow Chemical Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (“TDCC” and together with Dow Inc., “Dow” or the "Company") due to the parent/subsidiary relationship between Dow Inc. and TDCC. The information reflected in the report is equally applicable to both Dow Inc. and TDCC, except where otherwise noted. Each of Dow Inc. and TDCC is filing information in this report on its own behalf and neither company makes any representation to the information relating to the other company.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements in this report are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements often address expected future business and financial performance, financial condition, and other matters, and often contain words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” "could," “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “opportunity,” “outlook,” “plan,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “strategy,” “target,” “will,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” “would” and similar expressions, and variations or negatives of these words or phrases.
Forward-looking statements are based on current assumptions and expectations of future events that are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that are beyond Dow’s control, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements and speak only as of the date the statements were made. These factors include, but are not limited to: sales of Dow’s products; Dow’s expenses, future revenues and profitability; any sanctions, export restrictions, supply chain disruptions or increased economic uncertainty related to the ongoing conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East; capital requirements and need for and availability of financing; unexpected barriers in the development of technology, including with respect to Dow's contemplated capital and operating projects; Dow's ability to realize its commitment to carbon neutrality on the contemplated timeframe, including the completion and success of its integrated ethylene cracker and derivatives facility in Alberta, Canada; size of the markets for Dow’s products and services and ability to compete in such markets; Dow's ability to develop and market new products and optimally manage product life cycles; the rate and degree of market acceptance of Dow’s products; significant litigation and environmental matters and related contingencies and unexpected expenses; the success of competing technologies that are or may become available; the ability to protect Dow’s intellectual property in the United States and abroad; developments related to contemplated restructuring activities and proposed divestitures or acquisitions such as workforce reduction, manufacturing facility and/or asset closure and related exit and disposal activities, and the benefits and costs associated with each of the foregoing; fluctuations in energy and raw material prices; management of process safety and product stewardship; changes in relationships with Dow’s significant customers and suppliers; changes in public sentiment and political leadership; increased concerns about plastics in the environment and lack of a circular economy for plastics at scale; changes in consumer preferences and demand; changes in laws and regulations, political conditions, tariffs and trade policies, or industry development; global economic and capital markets conditions, such as inflation, market uncertainty, interest and currency exchange rates, and equity and commodity prices; business, logistics and supply disruptions; security threats, such as acts of sabotage, terrorism or war, including the ongoing conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East; weather events and natural disasters; disruptions in Dow’s information technology networks and systems, including the impact of cyberattacks; risks related to Dow’s separation from DowDuPont Inc. such as Dow’s obligation to indemnify DuPont de Nemours, Inc. and/or Corteva, Inc. for certain liabilities; and any global and regional economic impacts of a pandemic or other public health-related risks and events on Dow’s business.
Where, in any forward-looking statement, an expectation or belief as to future results or events is expressed, such expectation or belief is based on the current plans and expectations of management and expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis, but there can be no assurance that the expectation or belief will result or be achieved or accomplished. A detailed discussion of principal risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results and events to differ materially from such forward-looking statements is included in the section titled “Risk Factors” contained in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. These are not the only risks and uncertainties that Dow faces. There may be other risks and uncertainties that Dow is unable to identify at this time or that Dow does not currently expect to have a material impact on its business. If any of those risks or uncertainties develops into an actual event, it could have a material adverse effect on Dow’s business. Dow Inc. and TDCC assume no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements whether because of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by securities and other applicable laws.

NOTE 1 – CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Basis of Presentation
Dow Inc. is the direct parent company of The Dow Chemical Company and its consolidated subsidiaries ("TDCC" and together with Dow Inc., "Dow" or the "Company"). The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Dow Inc. and TDCC were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and reflect all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) which, in the opinion of management, are considered necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. These statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 ("2024 10-K").
As a result of the parent/subsidiary relationship between Dow Inc. and TDCC, and considering that the financial statements and disclosures of each company are substantially similar, the companies are filing a combined report for this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The information reflected in the report is equally applicable to both Dow Inc. and TDCC, except where otherwise noted. Transactions between TDCC and Dow Inc. are treated as related party transactions for TDCC.
Except as otherwise indicated by the context, the term "Union Carbide" means Union Carbide Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Additionally, the term "Diamond Infrastructure Solutions" means Dow InfraCo, LLC, an entity that owns and operates infrastructure assets at certain Dow locations on the U.S. Gulf Coast and became a consolidated variable interest entity on May 1, 2025. See Notes 17 and 22 for additional information about Diamond Infrastructure Solutions.
NOTE 2 – RECENT ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE
Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
In the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company adopted the annual and interim disclosure requirements of Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures." The amendments expand a public business entity's segment disclosures by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), clarifying when an entity may report one or more additional measures to assess segment performance, requiring enhanced interim disclosures, providing new disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and requiring other new disclosures. See Note 23 for applicable reportable segment disclosures required by this guidance.
Accounting Guidance Issued But Not Adopted at September 30, 2025
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures," which is intended to enhance the transparency, decision usefulness and effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in this ASU require a public business entity to disclose a tabular tax rate reconciliation, using both percentages and currency, with specific categories. A public business entity is also required to provide a qualitative description of the states and local jurisdictions that make up the majority of the effect of the state and local income tax category and the net amount of income taxes paid, disaggregated by federal, state and foreign taxes and also disaggregated by individual jurisdictions. The amendments also remove certain disclosures that are no longer considered cost beneficial. The amendments are effective prospectively for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. While the adoption of ASU 2023-09 will result in enhanced disclosures, the Company does not expect it will have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, "Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses," which is intended to improve disclosures about a public business entity's expenses and address requests from investors for more detailed information about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions. Such information should allow investors to better understand an entity's performance, assess future cash flows, and compare performance over time and with other entities. The amendments will require public business entities to disclose in the notes to the financial statements, at each interim and annual reporting period, specific information about certain costs and expenses, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization included in each expense caption presented on the face of the income statement, and the total amount of an entity's selling expenses. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. While the adoption of ASU 2024-03 will result in enhanced disclosures, the Company does not expect it will have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software," which is intended to modernize the accounting for the costs of internal-use software given the evolution of software development to the incremental and iterative development method. The amendments remove all references to prescriptive and sequential development stages and, instead, require an entity to start capitalizing software costs when management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period with the amendments to be applied using a prospective, modified or retrospective transition approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on the consolidated financial statements.
SEC Final Rules Not Adopted at September 30, 2025
In March 2024, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") adopted final rules under SEC Release Nos. 33-11275 and 34-99678, "The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors," which requires registrants to disclose certain climate-related information in registration statements and annual reports. As a large accelerated filer, most disclosure requirements would be effective for the Company beginning in the year ending December 31, 2025, with certain greenhouse gas emissions disclosures required for the year ending December 31, 2026. In April 2024, the SEC issued an order to stay the final rules until various legal challenges are resolved by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit ("Court of Appeals"). In March 2025, the SEC voted to end its defense of the final rules and, in July 2025, the SEC asked the Court of Appeals to resolve the merits of the challenge to the final rules. In September 2025, the Court of Appeals ordered the litigation to be held in abeyance pending further action from the SEC.
NOTE 3 – REVENUE
Revenue Recognition
The majority of the Company's revenue is derived from product sales. The Company's revenue related to product sales was 98 percent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 (97 percent and 98 percent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively). The remaining sales were primarily related to the Company's insurance operations and licensing of patents and technologies. Product sales consist of sales of the Company's products to manufacturers and distributors. The Company considers order confirmations or purchase orders, which in some cases are governed by master supply agreements, to be contracts with a customer. The Company enters into licensing arrangements in which it licenses certain rights of its patents and technology to customers. Revenue from the Company’s licenses for patents and technology is derived from sales-based royalties and licensing arrangements based on billing schedules established in each contract.
Remaining Performance Obligations
Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations. At September 30, 2025, the Company had unfulfilled performance obligations of $735 million ($759 million at December 31, 2024) related to the licensing of technology. The Company expects revenue to be recognized for the remaining performance obligations over the next five years.
The Company has additional remaining performance obligations for product sales that have expected durations of one year or less, product sales of materials delivered through a pipeline for which the Company has elected the "right to invoice" practical expedient, and variable consideration attributable to royalties for licenses of patents and technology. The Company has received advance payments from customers related to long-term supply agreements that are deferred and recognized over the life of the contract, with remaining contract terms that range up to 18 years. The Company will have rights to future consideration for revenue recognized when product is delivered to the customer. These payments are included in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets.
Disaggregation of Revenue
The Company disaggregates its revenue from contracts with customers by operating segment and business, as the Company believes it best depicts the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of its revenue and cash flows. See details in the tables below:

Contract Assets and Liabilities
The Company receives payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules. Accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. Contract assets include amounts related to the Company's contractual right to consideration for completed performance obligations not yet invoiced. Contract liabilities include payments received in advance of performance under the contract and are recognized in revenue when the performance obligations are met. "Contract liabilities - current" primarily reflects deferred revenue from prepayments from customers for product to be delivered in 12 months or less and royalty payments that are deferred and will be recognized in 12 months or less. "Contract liabilities - noncurrent" includes advance payments that the Company has received from customers related to long-term supply agreements and royalty payments that are deferred and recognized over the life of the contract.
Revenue recognized in the first nine months of 2025 from amounts included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the period was approximately $170 million (approximately $135 million in the first nine months of 2024). In the first nine months of 2025 and 2024, the amount of contract assets reclassified to receivables as a result of the right to the transaction consideration becoming unconditional was insignificant.
The following table summarizes contract assets and liabilities at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Contract Assets and Liabilities | Balance Sheet Classification | Sep 30, 2025 | Dec 31, 2024 |

Contract liabilities - noncurrent 1 | Other noncurrent obligations | $ | 1,791 | | $ | 1,480 | |
1.The increase from December 31, 2024 to September 30, 2025 was primarily due to advance payments on long-term supply agreements.
NOTE 4 – DIVESTITURES
Divestiture of Soil Fumigation Product Line
On May 1, 2025, the Company sold TeloneTM, a soil fumigation product line, and certain related assets to TriCal Soil Solutions, Inc. ("TriCal"), a distributor and applicator of soil fumigation products, for cash proceeds of $121 million, net of costs to sell and other transaction expenses and subject to customary post-closing adjustments. Under the sale and purchase agreement, Dow retained ownership of the related production assets, which are leased to TriCal as part of a toll manufacturing arrangement that directs the Company to manufacture and deliver certain products to TriCal. These asset leases are classified as operating leases. Dow and TriCal have also entered into a site services agreement related to certain services the Company will provide to TriCal at its site in Stade, Germany. Divested assets included property with a net book value of $5 million and goodwill of $10 million. The Company recognized a pretax gain of $103 million in the second quarter of 2025, included in "Sundry income (expense) - net" in the consolidated statements of income and related to Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure.
Divestiture of Investment in DowAksa
On August 8, 2025, the Company sold its ownership interest in DowAksa Advanced Composites Holdings BV ("DowAksa"), a nonconsolidated affiliate, to its joint venture partner, Aksa Akrilik Kimya Sanayii A.Ş., for cash proceeds of $121 million, net of costs to sell and other transaction expenses and subject to customary post-closing adjustments. The Company's investment balance in DowAksa was $11 million and the Company recognized a pretax gain of $110 million in the third quarter of 2025, included in "Sundry income (expense) - net" in the consolidated statements of income and related to Corporate.
The Company evaluated the divestitures of its soil fumigation product line and its investment in DowAksa and determined they did not represent strategic shifts that had a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results and did not qualify as individually significant components of the Company. As a result, the divestitures are not reported as discontinued operations.
NOTE 5 – RESTRUCTURING AND ASSET RELATED CHARGES - NET
Charges for restructuring programs and other asset related charges, which include asset impairments, are recorded in "Restructuring and asset related charges - net" in the consolidated statements of income. For additional information on the Company's 2023 Restructuring Program and other asset related charges, see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2024 10-K.
2025 Restructuring Program
On January 27, 2025, the Dow Inc. Board of Directors ("Board") approved targeted actions to further achieve the Company's cost reduction initiatives in response to ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty, while reinforcing its long-term competitiveness across the economic cycle. The actions include a workforce reduction of approximately 1,500 roles. As a result of these actions, in the first quarter of 2025 the Company recorded pretax charges of $207 million for severance and related benefits costs, included in "Restructuring and asset related charges - net" in the consolidated statements of income, related to Corporate. These actions are expected to be substantially complete by the end of 2026.
On June 30, 2025, the Board approved restructuring actions to rationalize the Company's global asset footprint, including certain actions identified as part of the Company's previously announced strategic review of its European assets and certain corporate and other assets, and to enhance the Company's competitiveness over the economic cycle. The program includes asset write-down and write-off charges, severance and related benefit costs and other exit and disposal costs. As a result of these actions, in the second quarter of 2025, the Company recorded pretax restructuring charges of $591 million, consisting of severance and related benefit costs of $154 million, asset write-downs and write-offs of $334 million and costs associated with exit and disposal activities of $103 million. In the third quarter of 2025, the Company recorded additional pretax restructuring charges of $23 million, consisting of asset write-downs and write-offs of $8 million and costs associated with exit and disposal activities of $15 million. The impact of these charges is shown as "Restructuring and asset related charges - net" in the consolidated statements of income. See Note 21 for additional information on nonrecurring fair value measurements. The following table summarizes the activities related to the 2025 Restructuring Program, including segment information:

1.Costs associated with exit and disposal activities relate to asset retirement obligations and pension benefit settlement costs.
At September 30, 2025, $141 million of the restructuring reserve balance was included in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and $138 million was included in "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets.
The Company recorded pretax restructuring charges of $821 million inception-to-date under the 2025 Restructuring Program, consisting of severance and related benefit costs of $361 million, asset write-downs and write-offs of $342 million and costs associated with exit and disposal activities of $118 million.
Restructuring implementation costs, primarily decommissioning and demolition activities related to asset actions and costs associated with the Company's restructuring actions, are expected to result in additional cash expenditures of approximately $220 million. Restructuring implementation costs totaled $5 million and $10 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.
Severance and Related Benefit Costs
Severance benefits are provided to employees primarily under Dow's ongoing benefit arrangements and are accrued against the Corporate segment once management commits to a plan of termination. The 2025 Restructuring Program included charges for severance and related benefit costs of $361 million. At September 30, 2025, $82 million in severance payments had been made.
Asset Write-downs and Write-offs
The 2025 Restructuring Program included charges related to the write-down and write-off of assets totaling $342 million. Details regarding the asset write-downs and write-offs are as follows:
•Packaging & Specialty Plastics recorded a charge to rationalize its global asset footprint by shutting down an ethylene facility in Böhlen, Germany by the end of 2027.
•Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure recorded a charge to primarily rationalize its global asset footprint by shutting down certain chlor-alkali and vinyl assets in Schkopau, Germany by the end of 2027.
•Performance Materials & Coatings recorded a charge to primarily rationalize its global asset footprint by shutting down a basics siloxanes plant in Barry, United Kingdom by mid-year 2026.
•Corporate recorded charges related to the write-down of certain Company owned and leased non-manufacturing facilities and other assets.
Costs Associated with Exit and Disposal Activities
In the first nine months of 2025, the Company accrued additional asset retirement obligations of $105 million and wrote off related deferred asset charges associated with the asset shutdowns noted above, resulting in charges of $103 million and $5 million in the second and third quarters of 2025, respectively. See Note 14 for additional information related to the Company’s asset retirement obligations.
The 2025 Restructuring Program also included a pretax charge of $10 million for net pension benefit settlement costs related to participants of a pension plan in Europe that were impacted by the restructuring program, recorded in the third quarter of 2025.
It is reasonably possible the Company will incur approximately $60 million of future charges related to costs associated with exit and disposal activities.
In addition, the Company is assessing potential environmental remediation activities associated with the asset actions noted above, which could result in additional charges and cash payments in the future. The Company intends to continue operating other assets at the sites impacted by these actions.
2023 Restructuring Program
Actions related to the restructuring program approved by the Board on January 25, 2023, were complete at the end of the second quarter of 2025. In the first quarter of 2025, the Company recorded an additional pretax restructuring charge of $5 million for asset write-downs and write-offs and an asset related credit adjustment of $4 million, included in "Restructuring and asset related charges - net" in the consolidated statements of income, related to Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure. See Note 21 for additional information on nonrecurring fair value measurements. Restructuring implementation and efficiency costs were zero and $50 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively ($55 million and $157 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively).

3.Classified as "Other investments" in the consolidated balance sheets.
Supplier Finance Program
The Company facilitates a supply chain financing (“SCF”) program in the ordinary course of business in order to extend payment terms with vendors. Under the terms of this program, a vendor can voluntarily enter into an agreement with a participating financial intermediary to sell its receivables due from the Company. The vendor receives payment from the financial intermediary, and the Company pays the financial intermediary on the terms originally negotiated with the vendor, which generally range from 90 to 120 days. The vendor negotiates the terms of the agreements directly with the financial intermediary and the Company is not a party to that agreement. The financial intermediary may allow the participating vendor to utilize the Company’s creditworthiness in establishing credit spreads and associated costs, which may provide the vendor with more favorable terms than they would be able to secure on their own. The Company does not provide guarantees related to the SCF program. At September 30, 2025, outstanding obligations confirmed as valid under the SCF program were $288 million ($291 million at December 31, 2024), included in “Accounts payable – Trade” in the consolidated balance sheets.
NOTE 7 – INCOME TAXES
As the financial statements for Dow Inc. and TDCC are substantially similar, including the provision (credit) for income taxes, the following income tax discussion does not include reference to TDCC's provision (credit) for income taxes or its effective tax rate.
The Company's effective tax rate fluctuates based on, among other factors, where income is earned, the level of income relative to tax attributes and the level of equity earnings, since most earnings from the Company's equity method investments are taxed at the joint venture level.
The following table provides effective tax rate information for Dow Inc. for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Effective Tax Rate Information | Three Months Ended | Nine Months Ended |
| Amounts in millions | Sep 30, 2025 | Sep 30, 2024 | Sep 30, 2025 | Sep 30, 2024 |
|
| Income (loss) before income taxes | $ | 70 | | $ | 324 | | $ | (963) | | $ | 1,381 | |
| Provision (credit) for income taxes | $ | (54) | | $ | 84 | | $ | 4 | | $ | 145 | |
| Effective tax rate | (77.1) | % | 25.9 | % | (0.4) | % | 10.5 | % |
The credit for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was impacted by the recording of a tax benefit stemming from the U.S. Tax Court's decision in Varian Medical Systems Inc. v. Commissioner of $100 million and a tax benefit of $20 million related to the sale of an additional portion of the Company's membership interests in Diamond Infrastructure Solutions, partially offset by losses attributable to jurisdictions for which no tax benefit can be recognized. The provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was also impacted by the initial sale of a portion of the Company's membership interests in Diamond Infrastructure Solutions resulting in a tax benefit of $89 million, which was offset by valuation allowances in certain foreign jurisdictions of $242 million. See Note 17 for additional information related to the Diamond Infrastructure Solutions transaction.
In the first nine months of 2024, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $194 million related to a reassessment of interest and penalties on a tax matter in a foreign jurisdiction, resulting in a reduced effective tax rate for the period.
On July 4, 2025, U.S. legislation formally titled "An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Title II of H. Con. Res. 14” (“the Act”) and commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act was signed into law. The Act, among other things, extended key provisions of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and introduced targeted changes to the U.S. federal income tax regime. Based on the analysis performed by the Company to date, the Act is not expected to have a material impact on the effective tax rate.
NOTE 8 – EARNINGS PER SHARE CALCULATIONS
The following tables provide earnings per share calculations for Dow Inc. for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. Earnings per share of TDCC is not presented as this information is not required in financial statements of wholly owned subsidiaries.

1.The nine months ended September 30, 2025 reflect a net loss and, as such, the basic share count was used for purposes of calculating earnings per share on a diluted basis.
2.These outstanding stock units were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the effect of including them would have been antidilutive.

NOTE 10 – NONCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES
For additional information on the Company’s nonconsolidated affiliates, see Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2024 10-K.
The Company's investments in companies accounted for using the equity method ("nonconsolidated affiliates"), by classification in the consolidated balance sheets are shown in the following table:
| | | | | | | | |
| Investments in Nonconsolidated Affiliates | Sep 30, 2025 | Dec 31, 2024 |

At September 30, 2025, the Company had a negative investment balance in Sadara Chemical Company of $851 million included in "Other noncurrent obligations" (negative $517 million at December 31, 2024) in the consolidated balance sheets. The increased negative investment in Sadara Chemical Company at September 30, 2025 is due to equity losses generated during the first nine months of 2025 driven by the impact of challenging macroeconomic conditions.
At September 30, 2025, the Company had a negative investment balance in EQUATE Petrochemical Company K.S.C.C of $41 million included in "Other noncurrent obligations" (negative $51 million at December 31, 2024) in the consolidated balance sheets. The decrease in the negative investment was driven by equity earnings, partially offset by dividends distributed to shareholders in the first nine months of 2025.
NOTE 11 – GOODWILL

Goodwill Impairment Testing
In the second quarter of 2025, the Company identified potential indicators of goodwill impairment due to announced restructuring actions and ongoing macroeconomic challenges. As a result, the Company evaluated whether the fair value of any reporting unit may be less than its carrying amount. This assessment indicated that the Consumer Solutions reporting unit, part of the Performance Materials & Coatings segment, required an interim quantitative goodwill impairment test as of June 30, 2025. The test concluded that no goodwill impairment existed, as the fair value of the Consumer Solutions reporting unit exceeded its carrying value. Fair value was estimated using a discounted cash flow model that incorporated current market conditions and the anticipated effects of the restructuring actions. Key assumptions included projected revenue growth, discount rate, tax rate, terminal value, currency exchange rates, and long-term raw material and energy price forecasts.
In the third quarter of 2025, as a result of continued macroeconomic challenges, the Company evaluated whether the fair value of any reporting unit may be less than its carrying amount. This assessment indicated that the Packaging and Specialty Plastics reporting unit, part of the Packaging & Specialty Plastics segment, required an interim quantitative goodwill impairment test as of September 30, 2025. The test concluded that no goodwill impairment existed, as the fair value of the Packaging and Specialty Plastics reporting unit exceeded its carrying value. Fair value was estimated using a discounted cash flow model that incorporated current market conditions. Key assumptions included projected revenue growth, discount rate, tax rate, terminal value, currency exchange rates, and long-term raw material and energy price forecasts.
The Company continues to monitor key factors that could impact the fair value of its reporting units, including changes in macroeconomic conditions or industry-specific trends, deterioration in financial performance, increases in market interest rates or adverse changes in regulatory or competitive environments. If these or other adverse events occur, it may be necessary to perform additional impairment testing, which could result in a future goodwill impairment charge.
NOTE 12 – TRANSFERS OF FINANCIAL ASSETS
Accounts Receivable Programs
The Company maintains accounts receivable facilities with various financial institutions, with committed and uncommitted facilities in the United States and a committed facility in Europe (collectively, "the Programs"), which are set to expire in November 2025 and are expected to be renewed in the fourth quarter. Under the terms of the Programs, the Company may sell certain eligible trade accounts receivable at any point in time, up to $900 million for the U.S. committed facility and up to €500 million for the Europe committed facility. Under the terms of the Programs, the Company continues to service the receivables from the customer, but retains no interest in the receivables, and remits payment to the financial institutions. Losses on transfers of receivables were insignificant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. The Company also provides a guarantee to the financial institutions for the creditworthiness and collection of the receivables in satisfaction of the facility. See Note 14 for additional information related to guarantees.
The Company has access to accounts receivable discounting facilities that cover certain receivables generated from sales in EMEAI, Asia Pacific and Canada (collectively, "the Facilities"). Under the terms of the Facilities, the Company retains no interest in the transferred receivables once sold and receivables are transferred with limited recourse. The Company continues to service the receivables from the customer and remits payment to the Facilities. Losses on transfers of receivables were insignificant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.
The following table provides a summary of cash flows related to the Programs and the Facilities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

2025 Activity
In the first quarter of 2025, the Company completed debt neutral liability management activities. The Company issued $1 billion of senior unsecured notes. The offering included $400 million aggregate principal amount of 5.35 percent notes due 2035 and $600 million aggregate principal amount of 5.95 percent notes due 2055. The Company used the proceeds to complete cash tender offers for certain debt securities. In total, $943 million aggregate principal amount was tendered and retired.

Debt Covenants and Default Provisions
There were no material changes to the debt covenants and default provisions related to the Company's outstanding long-term debt and primary, private credit agreements in the first nine months of 2025. For additional information on the Company's debt covenants and default provisions, see Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2024 10-K.
NOTE 14 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
A summary of the Company's commitments and contingencies can be found in Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2024 10-K, which is incorporated by reference herein.
Environmental Matters
Accruals for environmental matters are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated, based on current law and existing technologies. At September 30, 2025, the Company had accrued obligations of $1,044 million for probable environmental remediation and restoration costs ($1,113 million at December 31, 2024), including $220 million for the remediation of Superfund sites ($234 million at December 31, 2024). This is management’s best estimate of the costs for remediation and restoration with respect to environmental matters for which the Company has accrued liabilities, although it is reasonably possible that the ultimate cost with respect to these particular matters could range up to approximately two times that amount. Consequently, it is reasonably possible that environmental remediation and restoration costs in excess of amounts accrued could have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. It is the opinion of the Company’s management, however, that the possibility is remote that costs in excess of the range disclosed will have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Inherent uncertainties exist in these estimates primarily due to unknown conditions, changing governmental regulations and legal standards regarding liability, and emerging remediation technologies for handling site remediation and restoration. As new or additional information becomes available and/or certain spending trends become known, management will evaluate such information in determination of the current estimate of environmental liability.
Litigation
Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation
Each quarter, Union Carbide reviews asbestos-related claims filed, settled and dismissed, as well as average settlement and resolution costs by disease category. Union Carbide also considers additional quantitative and qualitative factors such as the nature of pending claims, trial experience of Union Carbide and other asbestos defendants, current spending for defense and processing costs, significant appellate rulings and legislative developments, trends in the tort system, and their respective effects on expected future resolution costs. Union Carbide's management considers these factors in conjunction with the most recent actuarial study and determines whether a change in the estimate is warranted. Based on Union Carbide's review of 2025 activity, it was determined that no adjustment to the accrual was required at September 30, 2025.
Union Carbide’s total asbestos-related liability for pending and future claims and defense and processing costs was $726 million at September 30, 2025 ($791 million at December 31, 2024). At September 30, 2025, approximately 26 percent of the recorded claim liability related to pending claims and approximately 74 percent related to future claims.
Legacy Matters
Groundwater Matters
The Company is the subject of various complaints related to alleged groundwater contamination based on decades-old sales and applications of certain agricultural chemical products ("Groundwater Matters"). The costs associated with these Groundwater Matters were previously covered by insurance policies that have since been depleted. In the first quarter of 2023, the Company completed a study of certain Groundwater Matters related to wells deemed to be probable and estimable based on the public reporting of sampling data and historical information to develop a reasonable estimate of the cost of pending and future claims and accrued a charge based on the estimate. In the second quarter of 2025, the Company completed a reassessment study of these Groundwater Matters based on current known factors, resulting in a reduced estimate of the cost of pending and future claims. As a result, the Company recorded a pretax credit of $106 million, included in "Cost of sales" in the consolidated statements of income and related to Corporate. In the second quarter of 2025, the Company settled a separate claim related to Groundwater Matters at a water storage district, resulting in a pretax charge of $64 million, included in "Cost of sales" in the consolidated statements of income and related to Corporate.
At September 30, 2025, the total liability related to settled claims and the probable and estimable settlement of all alleged Groundwater Matters was $78 million ($155 million at December 31, 2024), which was included in “Accrued and other current liabilities” and "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets.
The Company is also the subject of other groundwater contamination complaints, including claims related to 1,4-dioxane. The Company continues to defend itself in this litigation and has determined that the Company's exposure to liability, if any, is not probable or estimable at September 30, 2025.
Other Legacy Matters
On October 10, 2024, the Company executed a settlement agreement related to arbitration for historical product claims from a divested business. As a result, the Company recorded a pretax charge of $75 million in the third quarter of 2024, which was paid in the fourth quarter of 2024. Arbitration on the matter was concluded on March 11, 2025, and, as a result, the Company recorded an additional pretax charge of $98 million in the first quarter of 2025, which is included in "Cost of sales" in the consolidated statements of income, related to Corporate, and was paid in the second quarter of 2025.
Gain Contingency - Dow v. Nova Chemicals Corporation Ethylene Asset Matter
In 2019, the Court of King's Bench of Alberta, Canada ("Court") found Nova Chemicals Corporation ("Nova") liable for engaging in a deliberate and continuing course of conduct of conversion, breach of contract, gross negligence and willful misconduct in the operation of the companies’ jointly-owned ethylene asset in Joffre, Alberta, Canada. As a result of the liability finding, which is now final and non-appealable, the Court signed a judgment ordering Nova to pay $1.43 billion Canadian dollars (equivalent to approximately $1.08 billion U.S. dollars) for damages incurred through 2012. Nova made payment in October 2019. At September 30, 2025, $201 million ($201 million at December 31, 2024) was included in "Other noncurrent obligations" in the Company's consolidated balance sheets related to the disputed portion of the damages judgment.
Following an appeal, on June 10, 2025, the Court signed a separate judgment ordering Nova to pay an additional amount of $1.62 billion Canadian dollars (equivalent to approximately $1.2 billion U.S. dollars) for damages incurred through June 2018, which had not been previously quantified. The Court again found that Nova failed to operate the companies' jointly-owned ethylene asset at full capacity during this time, depriving the Company’s subsidiaries of millions of pounds of ethylene. On August 11, 2025, the Court also awarded fees of approximately $100 million U.S. dollars, bringing Nova’s current payment obligation to approximately $1.3 billion U.S. dollars. While those awards are subject to appeal, Alberta law requires Nova to satisfy the Court’s judgment in full notwithstanding its appeal in order to avoid enforcement measures during the appeal process. Nova has since requested that the Court of Appeal of Alberta stay the execution of the judgment pending its appeal. Nova’s request departs from well-established Alberta law, and would require Nova to show, among other things, that it would be irreparably harmed by making the required payment. Nova’s request for a stay has been fully briefed and argued, and a decision is expected by year-end 2025. It is the Company’s position that Nova cannot meet the legal standard necessary to receive a stay and avoid payment pending its appeal. We expect a decision on the stay from the Court of Appeal of Alberta by year-end 2025. If the Court of Appeal of Alberta grants the stay, Nova will not be required to pay the judgment to the Company while the appeal process is ongoing.
Guarantees
The following table provides a summary of the final expiration, maximum future payments and recorded liability included in the consolidated balance sheets for guarantees:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Guarantees | Sep 30, 2025 | Dec 31, 2024 |
| In millions | Final Expiration | Maximum Future Payments | Recorded Liability | Final Expiration | Maximum Future Payments | Recorded Liability |
| Guarantees | 2038 | $ | 1,223 | | $ | 138 | | 2038 | $ | 1,456 | | $ | 155 | |
Guarantees arise during the ordinary course of business from relationships with customers, accounts receivable facilities and nonconsolidated affiliates when the Company undertakes an obligation to guarantee the performance of others (via delivery of cash or other assets) if specified triggering events occur. With guarantees, such as commercial or financial contracts, non-performance by the guaranteed party triggers the obligation of the Company to make payments to the beneficiary of the guarantee. The majority of the Company’s guarantees relate to debt of nonconsolidated affiliates, which have expiration dates ranging from less than one year to 13 years. The Company’s current expectation is that future payment or performance related to the non-performance of others is considered remote.
The Company maintains accounts receivable facilities with various financial institutions, with committed and uncommitted facilities in the United States and a committed facility in Europe. Under the terms of the Programs, the Company continues to service the receivables from the customers, but retains no interest in the receivables, and remits payment to the financial institutions. The Company also has access to accounts receivable discounting facilities, under which receivables are transferred with limited recourse. The Company’s maximum guaranteed liability for the accounts receivable facilities is zero at September 30, 2025 ($239 million at December 31, 2024).
TDCC has entered into guarantee agreements related to Sadara, a nonconsolidated affiliate. Sadara reached an agreement with its lenders to re-profile its outstanding project financing debt in the first quarter of 2021. In conjunction with the debt re-profiling, TDCC entered into a guarantee of up to approximately $1.3 billion of Sadara’s debt, proportionate to the Company's 35 percent ownership interest. The debt re-profiling also includes a grace period until June 2026, during which Sadara is obligated to make interest-only payments which are guaranteed by TDCC in proportion to the Company’s 35 percent ownership interest. The Company does not expect to be required to perform under the guarantees. As part of the debt re-profiling, Sadara established a $500 million revolving credit facility guaranteed by Dow, which would be used to fund Dow’s pro-rata share of any potential shortfall during the grace period.
Asset Retirement Obligations
Asset retirement obligations are recorded as incurred and reasonably estimable, including obligations for which the timing and/or method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the Company. The retirement of assets may involve such efforts as remediation and treatment of asbestos, contractually required demolition, and other related activities, depending on the nature and location of the assets; and retirement obligations are typically realized only upon demolition of those facilities. As a result of the asset shutdowns included in the restructuring activities discussed in Note 5, the Company accrued additional asset retirement obligations of $105 million in the first nine months of 2025. At September 30, 2025, the aggregate carrying amount of the Company's asset retirement obligations was $306 million ($174 million at December 31, 2024), which was included in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets.

NOTE 17 – NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS
Ownership interests in the Company's subsidiaries held by parties other than the Company are presented separately from the Company's equity in the consolidated balance sheets as "Noncontrolling interests." The amount of consolidated net income attributable to the Company and the noncontrolling interests are both presented on the face of the consolidated statements of income.
On May 1, 2025, TDCC sold 40 percent of the membership interests in Diamond Infrastructure Solutions to InfraPark Holdings, LLC ("InfraPark"), a subsidiary of a fund managed by Macquarie Asset Management, a global infrastructure and energy asset manager, in exchange for cash proceeds of approximately $2.4 billion, inclusive of customary post-closing adjustments. On August 29, 2025, as provided under the terms of the sale and purchase agreement, InfraPark exercised its option to purchase an additional 9 percent of Diamond Infrastructure Solutions' membership interests in exchange for proceeds of approximately $540 million. Diamond Infrastructure Solutions and its subsidiaries own and operate certain non-product producing energy, environmental, pipeline and other related infrastructure assets located at five of the Company's manufacturing sites on the U.S. Gulf Coast and provide infrastructure services to Dow manufacturing assets and other third-party tenants at these locations. InfraPark's ownership is accounted for as a noncontrolling interest in Diamond Infrastructure Solutions.
Cash proceeds from the sale of membership interests are included in "Proceeds from sale of noncontrolling interests" in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The transactions resulted in an increase in "Additional paid-in capital" of $339 million and $1,879 million and an increase in "Noncontrolling interests" of $194 million and $1,028 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, recorded in the consolidated balance sheets and the consolidated statements of equity.

1.The Company's held-to-maturity securities primarily relate to treasury bills and time deposits. At September 30, 2025, $813 million is included in "Cash and cash equivalents" ($96 million at December 31, 2024) and $41 million is included in "Other current assets" (zero at December 31, 2024) in the consolidated balance sheets.
2.The Company’s investments in marketable securities are included in “Other current assets” in the consolidated balance sheets.
3.The Company’s investments in debt securities, which are primarily available-for-sale, and equity securities are included in “Other investments” in the consolidated balance sheets.
4.U.S. Treasury obligations, U.S. agency obligations, U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities and other municipalities’ obligations.
5.Equity securities with a readily determinable fair value.
6.See Note 20 for classification of derivatives in the consolidated balance sheets.
7.Cost includes fair value hedge adjustment gains of $35 million at September 30, 2025 and $9 million at December 31, 2024 on $5,538 million of debt at September 30, 2025 and $5,129 million at December 31, 2024.
8.Estimated liability for TDCC's guarantee of Sadara's debt which is included in "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets.
Cost approximates fair value for all other financial instruments.
For equity securities calculated at net asset value per share (or its equivalent), the Company had $109 million in private market securities and $13 million in real estate at September 30, 2025 ($90 million in private market securities and $15 million in real estate at December 31, 2024). There are no redemption restrictions and the unfunded commitments on these investments were $72 million at September 30, 2025 and $81 million at December 31, 2024.
For assets classified as Level 3 measurements, fair value is based on significant unobservable inputs including assumptions where there is little, if any, market activity. The level 3 asset values represent the fair value of an investment in a corporate bond, accounted for as a debt security.
For liabilities classified as Level 3 measurements, fair value is based on significant unobservable inputs including assumptions where there is little, if any, market activity. The fair value of the Company’s accrued liability related to the guarantee of Sadara’s debt is in proportion to the Company’s 35 percent ownership interest in Sadara. The estimated fair value of the guarantee was calculated using a "with" and "without" method. The fair value of the debt was calculated "with" the guarantee less the fair value of the debt "without" the guarantee. The "with" and "without" values were calculated using a discounted cash flow method based on contractual cash flows as well as projected prepayments made on the debt by Sadara.
Fair Value Measurements on a Nonrecurring Basis
2025 Restructuring Program

Dow’s measure of profit/loss for segment reporting purposes is Operating EBIT as this is the manner in which the chief executive officer, chief operating officer, chief financial officer, general counsel and corporate secretary, and senior vice president of corporate development, together the "executive committee" and CODM, assesses performance and allocates resources. The CODM compares quarterly results to both the year-ago and sequential periods to assess performance and allocate resources to each segment. The Company defines Operating EBIT as earnings (i.e., "Income (loss) before income taxes") before interest, excluding the impact of significant items. Operating EBIT by segment includes all operating items relating to the businesses; items that principally apply to Dow as a whole are assigned to Corporate.

STATEMENT ON MACROECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND FOURTH QUARTER OUTLOOK
Overview of Macroeconomic Conditions and the Company’s Response
The Company has continued to face challenging market conditions, including the significant impact of slower global GDP growth, through the third quarter of 2025. Industry overcapacity due to newer entrants exporting at anti-competitive economics has, and is expected to continue to, negatively impact the Company’s results of operations and cash flows. In addition, the current uncertain geopolitical environment, including the impact of trade policies, has resulted in increased volatility in global markets, also negatively impacting the Company’s results of operations and cash flows. The macroeconomic conditions experienced in the first nine months of 2025 are expected to persist in the near term for the Company and the industry alike.
Despite these challenges, the Company has maintained a strong financial position and solid liquidity and has taken actions to mitigate impacts on its supply chain and results of operations. At the time of this filing, the ultimate impact of tariff policies and other evolving global trade measures, coupled with existing macroeconomic challenges, is uncertain. The Company is actively monitoring global trade developments to identify actions necessary to maintain competitiveness while it adapts to these new economic challenges and continuing to work with regulatory bodies to address anti-competitive behavior. More information on these risks and potential impact to the Company can be found in Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors.
In the first quarter of 2025, Dow announced targeted cost actions to reduce structural costs by $1 billion over the next two years, while its businesses work to balance supply with profitable demand. The cost actions target areas such as third-party spending and include a workforce reduction of approximately 1,500 roles. The Company also announced reductions to its capital expenditures for 2025.
The Company announced further actions to address ongoing macroeconomic volatility and persistently slower global GDP growth in the second quarter of 2025, including the decision to delay construction of its Path2Zero project in Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta, Canada, until market conditions improve, reducing the Company’s expected 2025 enterprise-wide capital expenditures to $2.5 billion, a reduction from the Company's original plan of $3.5 billion. Dow remains committed to its Path2Zero project and the growth upside it will enable in targeted applications like pressure pipe, wire and cable, and food packaging. The Path2Zero project is expected to be the world’s first net-zero Scope 1 and 2 carbon dioxide equivalent emissions integrated ethylene and derivatives complex.
On July 7, 2025, the Company announced additional restructuring actions, approved by its Board of Directors ("Board") on June 30, 2025, to rationalize its global asset footprint, including actions related to the three assets identified as part of the Company’s expanded strategic review of its European assets and certain corporate and other assets, and to enhance the Company’s competitiveness over the economic cycle. The program includes asset
write-down and write-off charges, severance and related benefit costs, contract termination fees and other exit and disposal costs. These actions will be completed by the Company primarily over the next four years, including the asset shut downs and completion of the related decommissioning and demolition activities. Significant actions approved to date include the following:
•Packaging & Specialty Plastics will shut down an ethylene facility in Böhlen, Germany by the end of 2027.
•Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure will shut down chlor-alkali and vinyl assets in Schkopau, Germany by the end of 2027.
•Performance Materials & Coatings will shut down a basics siloxanes plant in Barry, United Kingdom by mid-year 2026.
•The Company will write-off certain Corporate-aligned owned and leased non-manufacturing facilities and other assets.
More information on the restructuring actions and related charges can be found in Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
On July 24, 2025, the Company’s Board declared a quarterly dividend of $0.35 per share, reducing the dividend by 50 percent compared with the dividend declared in second quarter 2025, in response to the prolonged industry downturn. The adjustment to the size of the dividend reflects the Company’s balanced capital allocation approach and enhances financial flexibility amidst a persistently challenging macroeconomic environment. The Company's fourth quarter dividend of $0.35 per share was declared by the Board on October 9, 2025.
Outlook
The Company is staying close with its customers, maintaining the financial flexibility it has built, and strengthening its competitiveness to drive higher earnings. While the near-term market backdrop remains largely unchanged across the end markets Dow serves, the Company continues to take actions to build on its strong foundation and enable greater long-term shareholder returns when macroeconomic conditions improve. Dow is focused on resilient areas of its portfolio where it can capture share and premiums. And, the Company is delivering increased cost savings, rationalizing higher-cost areas of its asset footprint, primarily in Europe, and applying a disciplined approach to its balance sheet and cash flow. As it has demonstrated, Dow is committed to identifying and implementing additional targeted initiatives designed to enhance its earnings and further optimize its cost structure.

Cost of Sales
Cost of sales ("COS") was $9.2 billion in the third quarter of 2025, compared with $9.8 billion in the third quarter of 2024. COS decreased in the third quarter of 2025 primarily due to lower raw material, feedstock and energy costs, lower planned maintenance turnaround spending, the impact of the Company's cost reduction initiatives and the absence of a charge in the third quarter of 2024 related to an arbitration settlement agreement for historical product claims from a divested business. For the first nine months of 2025, COS was $28.5 billion, compared with $28.9 billion in the first nine months of 2024. COS for the first nine months of 2025 decreased primarily due to lower raw material, feedstock and energy costs, lower planned maintenance turnaround spending, adjustments to legacy groundwater contamination matters and the absence of a charge in the third quarter of 2024 related to an arbitration settlement agreement for historical product claims from a divested business. COS as a percentage of net sales was 92.7 percent in the third quarter of 2025 (90.2 percent in the third quarter of 2024) and 93.5 percent for the first nine months of 2025 (88.7 percent for the first nine months of 2024).

R&D expenses for the first nine months of 2025 were $579 million, compared with $608 million in the first nine months of 2024. R&D expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 decreased primarily due to the Company's cost reduction initiatives.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses totaled $340 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared with $396 million in the third quarter of 2024. For the first nine months of 2025, SG&A expenses were $1,053 million, compared with $1,228 million in the first nine months of 2024. SG&A expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 decreased primarily due to the impact of lower third-party purchased services, the impact of the Company's cost reduction initiatives, as well as decreased bad debt expense. The first nine months of 2025 also included the impact of a favorable resolution of a dispute with a customer.
Amortization of Intangibles
Amortization of intangibles was $46 million in the third quarter of 2025 compared with $76 million in the third quarter of 2024. In the first nine months of 2025, amortization of intangibles was $185 million, compared with $234 million in the first nine months of 2024. Amortization of intangibles decreased primarily due to certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized in 2025.
Restructuring and Asset Related Charges - Net
2025 Restructuring Program
On January 27, 2025, the Board approved targeted actions to further achieve the Company's cost reduction initiatives in response to ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty, while reinforcing its long-term competitiveness across the economic cycle. As a result of these actions, in the first quarter of 2025 the Company recorded pretax charges of $207 million for severance and related benefits costs, related to Corporate. These actions are expected to be substantially complete by the end of 2026.
On June 30, 2025, the Board approved restructuring actions to rationalize the Company's global asset footprint, including certain actions identified as part of the Company's previously announced strategic review of its European assets and certain corporate and other assets, and to enhance the Company's competitiveness over the economic cycle. The program includes asset write-down and write-off charges, severance and related benefit costs and other exit and disposal costs. As a result of these actions, in the second quarter of 2025 the Company recorded pretax restructuring charges of $591 million, consisting of severance and related benefit costs of $154 million, asset write-downs and write-offs of $334 million and costs associated with exit and disposal activities of $103 million. Restructuring charges by segment were as follows: $158 million in Packaging & Specialty Plastics, $89 million in Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure, $147 million in Performance Materials & Coatings and $197 million in Corporate.

The Company's share of equity in losses of nonconsolidated affiliates was $122 million for the first nine months of 2025, compared with equity in earnings of nonconsolidated affiliates of $45 million for the first nine months of 2024. The decrease in both periods was primarily driven by lower results at the Company's Thai, Kuwait and Sadara joint ventures. Cash dividends from nonconsolidated affiliates were $190 million for the first nine months of 2025, compared with $266 million for the first nine months of 2024.
Sundry Income (Expense) – Net
Sundry income (expense) - net for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was income of $185 million and $184 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, compared with income of $119 million and $118 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The third quarter of 2025 included a gain from the divestiture of the Company's ownership interest in DowAksa, non-operating pension and postretirement benefit plan credits and foreign currency exchange gains, partially offset by a loss on early extinguishment of debt. The third quarter of 2024 included non-operating pension and postretirement benefit plan credits, gains on the sales of assets and investments and foreign currency exchange losses. See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Sundry income (expense) - net for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was income of $345 million and $360 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, compared with income of $256 million and $253 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The first nine months of 2025 included a gain from the divestiture of the Company's soil fumigation product line and its ownership interest in DowAksa, non-operating pension and postretirement benefit plan credits, and foreign currency exchange gains, partially offset by a loss on early extinguishment of debt. The first nine months of 2024 included non-operating pension and postretirement benefit plan credits and gains on the sales of assets and investments, partially offset by foreign currency exchange losses. See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Interest Expense and Amortization of Debt Discount
Interest expense and amortization of debt discount was $221 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared with $199 million in the third quarter of 2024. Interest expense and amortization of debt discount was $646 million in the first nine months of 2025, compared with $595 million in the first nine months of 2024. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to increased issuances of commercial paper during the first nine months of 2025. See Liquidity and Capital Resources in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Provision (Credit) for Income Taxes
The Company's effective tax rate fluctuates based on, among other factors, where income is earned, the level of income relative to tax attributes and the level of equity earnings, since most earnings from the Company's equity method investments are taxed at the joint venture level. In the third quarter of 2025, the Company reported a credit for income taxes of $54 million, resulting in a negative effective tax rate of 77.1 percent. In the third quarter of 2024, the Company reported a provision for income taxes of $84 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 25.9 percent and 25.1 percent for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively. For the first nine months of 2025, the Company reported a provision for income taxes of $4 million, resulting in a negative effective tax rate of 0.4 percent. For the first nine months of 2024, the Company reported a provision for income taxes of $145 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 10.5 percent and 10.4 percent for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively.
The credit for income taxes for the third quarter of 2025 was impacted by the recording of a tax benefit stemming from the U.S. Tax Court's decision in Varian Medical Systems Inc. v. Commissioner of $100 million and a tax benefit of $20 million related to the sale of an additional portion of the Company's membership interests in Diamond Infrastructure Solutions, partially offset by losses attributable to jurisdictions for which no tax benefit can be recognized. The provision for income taxes for the first nine months of 2025 was also impacted by the initial sale of
a portion of the Company's membership interests in Diamond Infrastructure Solutions resulting in a tax benefit of $89 million, which was offset by valuation allowances in certain foreign jurisdictions of $242 million. See Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information related to the Diamond Infrastructure Solutions transaction. In the first quarter of 2024, the Company recorded a tax credit of $194 million related to a reassessment of interest and penalties on a tax matter in a foreign jurisdiction, resulting in a reduced effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2024.
The Company continues to monitor and evaluate legislative developments related to the Global Anti-Base Erosion Proposal Regime ("GloBE") established by the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development’s ("OECD") Pillar Two framework. Several countries in which the Company operates have adopted GloBE into their legislation and several others are expected to enact these rules in the future. To date, such legislation has not materially impacted the Company's effective tax rate.
On July 4, 2025, U.S. legislation formally titled "An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Title II of H. Con. Res. 14” (“the Act”) and commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act was signed into law. The Act, among other things, extended key provisions of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and introduced targeted changes to the U.S. federal income tax regime. Based on the analysis performed by the Company to date, the Act is not expected to have a material impact on the effective tax rate.
Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $62 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared with $26 million in the third quarter of 2024. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $113 million in the first nine months of 2025, compared with $67 million for the first nine months of 2024. The increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was primarily driven by the initial sale of 40 percent of the membership interests of Diamond Infrastructure Solutions in the second quarter of 2025 and the sale of an additional 9 percent in the third quarter of 2025. See Notes 17 and 22 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Net Income (Loss) Available for Common Stockholder(s)
Dow Inc.
Net income (loss) available for Dow Inc. common stockholders was income of $62 million, or $0.08 per share, in the third quarter of 2025, compared with income of $214 million, or $0.30 per share, in the third quarter of 2024. Net income (loss) available for Dow Inc. common stockholders was a loss of $1,080 million, or $1.53 per share, in the first nine months of 2025, compared with income of $1,169 million, or $1.65 per share, in the first nine months of 2024. See Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for details on Dow Inc.'s earnings per share calculations.
TDCC
Net income (loss) available for the TDCC common stockholder was income of $62 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared with income of $224 million in the third quarter of 2024. Net income (loss) available for the TDCC common stockholder was a loss of $1,059 million in the first nine months of 2025, compared with income of $1,186 million in the first nine months of 2024. TDCC's common shares are owned solely by Dow Inc.
SEGMENT RESULTS
For further discussion of the Company's segments, see Part I, Item 1. Business of the combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 ("2024 10-K"), filed with the SEC on February 4, 2025.
Dow’s measure of profit/loss for segment reporting purposes is Operating EBIT as this is the manner in which the chief executive officer, chief operating officer, chief financial officer, general counsel and corporate secretary, and senior vice president of corporate development, together the "executive committee" and chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), assesses performance and allocates resources. The CODM compares quarterly results to both the year-ago and sequential periods to assess performance and allocate resources to each segment. The Company defines Operating EBIT as earnings (i.e., "Income (loss) before income taxes") before interest, excluding the impact of significant items. Operating EBIT by segment includes all operating items relating to the businesses; items that principally apply to Dow as a whole are assigned to Corporate. See Note 23 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for reconciliations of these measures.

Local price decreased in Packaging and Specialty Plastics in all geographic regions, driven by lower pricing of polyethylene and functional polymers. Local price decreased in Hydrocarbons & Energy, driven by olefins and aromatics in EMEAI and the U.S. & Canada. Volume decreased in Packaging and Specialty Plastics due to nonrecurring licensing sales in the year ago period, partially offset by higher polyethylene volumes. Volume decreased in Hydrocarbons & Energy, primarily due to lower merchant olefins sales in EMEAI. Currency had a favorable impact on sales in both businesses and was primarily driven by EMEAI.
Operating EBIT was $199 million in the third quarter of 2025, down $419 million from Operating EBIT of $618 million in the third quarter of 2024. Operating EBIT decreased primarily due to lower integrated margins and equity earnings at the EQUATE and Sadara joint ventures, which were partially offset by the impact of the Company's cost reduction initiatives and lower planned maintenance costs.
Packaging & Specialty Plastics net sales were $15,226 million in the first nine months of 2025, down 8 percent from net sales of $16,461 million in the first nine months of 2024, with local price down 8 percent, portfolio & other down 1 percent, and volume up 1 percent. Local price decreased in Packaging and Specialty Plastics in all geographic regions, primarily driven by lower pricing of polyethylene and functional polymers. Local price decreased in Hydrocarbons & Energy, driven by olefins and aromatics in EMEAI and the U.S. & Canada. Volume increased in Packaging and Specialty Plastics, with higher volumes in Asia Pacific partially offset by a decline in EMEAI and Latin America, driven by higher volumes in polyethylene and nonrecurring licensing sales partially offset by lower functional polymers volumes. Volume increased in Hydrocarbons & Energy, primarily due to higher energy sales in the U.S. & Canada.
Operating EBIT was $612 million in the first nine months of 2025, down $1,314 million from Operating EBIT of $1,926 million in the first nine months of 2024. Operating EBIT decreased primarily due to lower integrated margins and equity earnings at the Company's EQUATE and Thai joint ventures, partially offset by lower planned maintenance costs.

Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure net sales were $2,834 million in the third quarter of 2025, down 4 percent from net sales of $2,962 million in the third quarter of 2024, with local price down 8 percent, and both volume and currency up 2 percent. Local price decreased in both businesses and across all geographic regions, led by declines in industrial and building and construction applications. Volume increased in Industrial Solutions, driven by higher volumes from improved supply availability following planned maintenance activity and the startup of a new alkoxylation unit in Seadrift, Texas, and was led by energy applications. Volume was flat in Polyurethanes & Construction Chemicals as increased methylene diphenyl diisocyanate volumes following a third-party supplier outage in the prior year were offset by declines in consumer durables applications. Currency had a favorable impact on sales in both businesses and was driven by EMEAI.
Operating EBIT was a loss of $47 million in the third quarter of 2025, up $6 million from an Operating EBIT loss of $53 million in the third quarter of 2024. Operating EBIT increased primarily driven by lower raw material and energy costs, lower planned maintenance activity, increased volume, and the impact of the Company's cost reduction initiatives, mostly offset by lower selling prices in both businesses and lower results at the Sadara and EQUATE joint ventures.
Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure net sales were $8,475 million in the first nine months of 2025, down 5 percent from net sales of $8,921 million in the first nine months of 2024, with local price down 5 percent. Local price decreased in both businesses and across all geographic regions, led by declines in industrial, consumer durables and building and construction applications. Volume increased in Industrial Solutions, with higher volumes in the U.S. & Canada and EMEAI, primarily in energy and industrial applications. Volume decreased in Polyurethanes & Construction Chemicals, driven by declines in EMEAI and Latin America, primarily in consumer durables and industrial applications.
Operating EBIT was a loss of $360 million in the first nine months of 2025, down $401 million from Operating EBIT of $41 million in the first nine months of 2024. Operating EBIT decreased primarily due to margin compression and lower results at the EQUATE and Sadara joint ventures, partially offset by the impact of the Company's cost reduction initiatives.

CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $4,609 million at September 30, 2025 and $2,189 million at December 31, 2024, of which $2,335 million at September 30, 2025 and $1,427 million at December 31, 2024 was held by subsidiaries in foreign countries, including U.S. territories. For each of its foreign subsidiaries, Dow makes an assertion regarding the amount of earnings intended for permanent reinvestment, with the balance available to be repatriated to the United States.
Cash held by foreign subsidiaries for permanent reinvestment is generally used to finance the subsidiaries' operational activities and future foreign investments. Dow has the ability to repatriate additional funds to the United States, which could result in an adjustment to the tax liability for foreign withholding taxes, foreign and/or U.S. state income taxes and the impact of foreign currency movements. At September 30, 2025, management believed that sufficient liquidity was available in the United States. The Company has and expects to continue repatriating certain funds from its non‑U.S. subsidiaries that are not needed to finance local operations; however, these particular repatriation activities have not and are not expected to result in a significant incremental tax liability to the Company.
The Company's cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, as reflected in the consolidated statements of cash flows, are summarized in the following table:

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations in the first nine months of 2025 was primarily driven by the Company's cash earnings, advance payments received from customers related to long-term supply contracts and dividends from equity method investments, partially offset by cash used for working capital and performance-based compensation. Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations in the first nine months of 2024 was primarily driven by the Company's cash earnings and dividends from equity method investments, which were partially offset by cash used for working capital and performance-based compensation payments.

Cash provided by (used for) operating activities from discontinued operations in the first nine months of 2025 and 2024 reflected cash payments and receipts for certain agreements and matters related to the separation from DowDuPont Inc. ("DowDuPont").
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Cash used for investing activities in the first nine months of 2025 and 2024 was primarily for capital expenditures and purchases of investments, which were partially offset by proceeds from sales and maturities of investments. The first nine months of 2025 also included a cash inflow related to the sale of the soil fumigation product line and certain related assets, proceeds from incentives related to capital expenditures and the divestiture of the Company's ownership interest in DowAksa. The first nine months of 2024 also included the acquisition of Circulus Holdings, PBLLC, a U.S. mechanical recycling company.
The Company's capital expenditures were $1,911 million in the first nine months of 2025, compared with $2,173 million in the first nine months of 2024. The Company has reduced its expected full year capital spending to approximately $2.5 billion. The primary driver for the decrease is the Company’s decision to delay construction of the Fort Saskatchewan Path2Zero project until market conditions improve. As evidenced across this and prior economic cycles, the Company will proactively adjust its spending as economic conditions evolve.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Cash provided by financing activities in the first nine months of 2025 was primarily related to proceeds from the sale of a minority stake in the Company's consolidated infrastructure entity and proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt, which were partially offset by payments on long-term debt. In addition, Dow Inc. included cash outflows for dividends paid to stockholders, including the impact of a 50 percent reduction to dividends paid in the third quarter of 2025, and TDCC included cash outflows for dividends paid to Dow Inc. Cash used for financing activities in the first nine months of 2024 for Dow Inc. was primarily related to dividends paid to stockholders, purchases of treasury stock and payments on long-term debt, which were partially offset by proceeds from issuance of long-term debt. Cash used for financing activities in the first nine months of 2024 for TDCC was primarily related to dividends paid to Dow Inc. and payments on long-term debt, which were partially offset by proceeds from issuance of long-term debt.
Dow Inc. Non-GAAP Cash Flow Measures
Free Cash Flow
Dow defines Free Cash Flow as "Cash provided by operating activities - continuing operations," less capital expenditures. Under this definition, Free Cash Flow represents the cash generated by Dow from operations after investing in its asset base. Free Cash Flow, combined with cash balances and other sources of liquidity, represents the cash available to fund obligations and provide returns to shareholders. Free Cash Flow is an integral financial measure used in the Company's financial planning process.
Operating EBITDA
Dow defines Operating EBITDA as earnings (i.e., "Income (loss) before income taxes") before interest, depreciation and amortization, excluding the impact of significant items.
Cash Flow Conversion (Cash Flow from Operations to Operating EBITDA)
Dow defines Cash Flow Conversion (Cash Flow from Operations to Operating EBITDA) as "Cash provided by operating activities - continuing operations," divided by Operating EBITDA. Management believes Cash Flow Conversion is an important financial metric as it helps the Company determine how efficiently it is converting its earnings into cash flow.
These financial measures are not recognized in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and should not be viewed as alternatives to GAAP financial measures of performance. All companies do not calculate non-GAAP financial measures in the same manner and, accordingly, Dow's definitions may not be consistent with the methodologies used by other companies.

2.Cash flow from operations to net income is not applicable for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 due to a net loss for the period.
Liquidity & Financial Flexibility
The Company’s primary source of incremental liquidity is cash flows from operating activities. The generation of cash from operations over the economic cycle and the Company's ability to access capital markets is expected to meet the Company’s cash requirements for working capital, capital expenditures, debt maturities, contributions to pension plans, dividend distributions to stockholders, share repurchases and other needs. In addition to cash from operating activities, the Company’s current liquidity sources also include TDCC's U.S. and Euromarket commercial paper programs, committed and uncommitted credit facilities, committed accounts receivable facilities, a medium-term notes program, a U.S. retail note program (“InterNotes®”) and other debt markets.
The Company continues to maintain a strong financial position with all of its committed credit facilities undrawn and fully available at September 30, 2025. Cash and committed and available forms of liquidity were $14.5 billion at September 30, 2025. The Company also has no substantive long-term debt maturities due until 2027. As a well-known seasoned issuer, the Company has ready access to debt capital markets, subject to market conditions, as an additional source of liquidity. Additional details on sources of liquidity are as follows:
Commercial Paper
TDCC issues promissory notes under its U.S. and Euromarket commercial paper programs. TDCC had no commercial paper outstanding at September 30, 2025. TDCC maintains access to the commercial paper market at competitive rates. Amounts outstanding under TDCC's commercial paper programs during the period may be greater or less than the amount reported at the end of the period. TDCC did not issue commercial paper subsequent to September 30, 2025.
Committed Credit Facilities
The Company also has the ability to access liquidity through TDCC's committed and available credit facilities. At September 30, 2025, TDCC had total committed and available credit facilities of $8.4 billion.
Uncommitted Credit Facilities
The Company has entered into various uncommitted bilateral credit arrangements as a potential source of excess liquidity. These lines can be used to support short-term liquidity needs and for general purposes. The Company had no drawdowns outstanding at September 30, 2025.
Accounts Receivable Securitization Facilities
In addition to the above credit facilities, the Company maintains a committed accounts receivable facility in the United States where eligible trade accounts receivable, up to $900 million, may be sold at any point in time. The Company also maintains a committed accounts receivable facility in Europe where eligible trade accounts receivable, up to €500 million, may be sold at any point in time. These facilities are set to expire in November 2025 and are expected to be renewed in the fourth quarter. In the first nine months of 2025, there were $106 million in sales of receivables under the U.S. and Europe committed accounts receivable facilities ($289 million in sales of receivables in the first nine months of 2024). No sold receivables were outstanding with the facilities at September 30, 2025.
In addition, the Company has an uncommitted accounts receivable facility in the United States providing additional liquidity. This facility is set to expire in November 2025 and is expected to be renewed in the fourth quarter. Sales of receivables under this facility were $147 million in the first nine months of 2025 ($378 million in sales of receivables in the first nine months of 2024). No sold receivables were outstanding with the facility at September 30, 2025. See Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Early Settlement of Letters of Credit
The Company utilizes, from time-to-time, letters of credit discounting programs to manage and expedite the settlement of letters of credit in certain regions. These letters of credit are associated with accounts receivable and the Company retains no interest in the transferred letters of credit or receivables once sold.
Accounts Receivable Discounting Facilities
The Company has access to accounts receivable discounting facilities, under which receivables are transferred with limited recourse. The Company retains no interest in the transferred receivables once sold. Sales of receivables under this facility were $285 million in the first nine months of 2025 ($581 million sales of receivables in the first nine months of 2024). At September 30, 2025, approximately $6 million of sold receivables were outstanding. See Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
The Company maintains these facilities and also participates in certain customers’ supply chain financing and other early pay programs as a routine source of working capital.
Company-Owned Life Insurance
The Company has investments in company-owned life insurance ("COLI") policies, which are recorded at their cash surrender value as of each balance sheet date. The Company has the ability to monetize its investment in its COLI policies as an additional source of liquidity. At September 30, 2025, the Company had monetized $197 million of its existing COLI policies' surrender value (zero at December 31, 2024). See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Shelf Registration - U.S.
On June 13, 2025, Dow Inc. and TDCC filed a shelf registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The shelf indicates that Dow Inc. may offer common stock; preferred stock; depositary shares; debt securities; guarantees; warrants to purchase common stock, preferred stock and debt securities; and stock purchase contracts and stock purchase units, with pricing and availability of any such offerings depending on market conditions. The shelf also indicates that TDCC may offer debt securities, guarantees and warrants to purchase debt securities, with pricing and availability of any such offerings depending on market conditions. On July 25, 2025, TDCC filed a prospectus supplement under this shelf registration to register an undetermined amount of securities for issuance under InterNotes®. Also, on July 25, 2025, TDCC filed a prospectus supplement under this shelf registration to register an undetermined amount of securities for issuance under a medium-term notes program.
Debt
As the Company continues to maintain its strong balance sheet and financial flexibility, management is focused on net debt (a non-GAAP financial measure), as the Company believes this is the best representation of its financial leverage at this point in time. As shown in the following table, net debt is equal to total gross debt minus "Cash and cash equivalents" and "Marketable securities."

1.Included in "Other current assets" in the consolidated balance sheets.
The Company may at any time repurchase certain debt securities in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions subject to: the applicable terms under which any such debt securities were issued, certain internal approvals of the Company, and applicable laws and regulations of the relevant jurisdiction in which any such potential transactions might take place. This in no way obligates the Company to make any such repurchases nor should it be considered an offer to do so.
TDCC's public debt instruments and primary, private credit agreements contain, among other provisions, certain customary restrictive covenant and default provisions. TDCC's most significant debt covenant with regard to its financial position is the obligation to maintain the ratio of its consolidated indebtedness to consolidated capitalization at no greater than 0.70 to 1.00 at any time the aggregate outstanding amount of loans under the Five Year Competitive Advance and Revolving Credit Facility Agreement ("Revolving Credit Agreement") equals or exceeds $500 million. The ratio of TDCC's consolidated indebtedness to consolidated capitalization as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement was 0.46 to 1.00 at September 30, 2025. Management believes TDCC was in compliance with all of its covenants and default provisions at September 30, 2025. For information on TDCC's debt covenants and default provisions, see Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2024 10-K. There were no material changes to the debt covenants and default provisions related to TDCC’s outstanding long-term debt and primary, private credit agreements in the first nine months of 2025.
In the first quarter of 2025, the Company completed debt neutral liability management activities. The Company issued $1 billion of senior unsecured notes. The offering included $400 million aggregate principal amount of 5.35 percent notes due 2035 and $600 million aggregate principal amount of 5.95 percent notes due 2055. The Company used the proceeds to complete cash tender offers for certain debt securities. In total, $943 million aggregate principal amount was tendered and retired. As a result, the Company recognized a pretax loss of
$60 million on the early extinguishment of debt, included in "Sundry income (expense) - net" in the consolidated statements of income, related to Corporate.
In the third quarter of 2025, the Company issued $1.4 billion of senior unsecured notes. The offering included $750 million aggregate principal amount of 4.80 percent notes due 2031 and $650 million aggregate principal amount of 5.65 percent notes due 2036. Additionally, the Company redeemed $55 million aggregate principal amount of 9.40 percent notes due 2039. As a result of the redemption, the Company recognized a pretax loss of $18 million on the early extinguishment of debt, included in "Sundry income (expense) - net" in the consolidated statements of income, related to Corporate.
In the first nine months of 2025, the Company issued an aggregate principal amount of $252 million of InterNotes®. Additionally, the Company repaid $125 million of long-term debt at maturity.
While taking into consideration the current economic environment, management expects that the Company will continue to have sufficient liquidity and financial flexibility to meet all of its business obligations.
Credit Ratings

| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Credit Ratings | Long-Term Rating | Short-Term Rating | Outlook |
| Fitch Ratings | BBB | F2 | Stable |
| Moody’s Ratings | Baa2 | P-2 | Negative |
| Standard & Poor’s | BBB | A-2 | Negative |
On February 21, 2025, Standard & Poor's affirmed TDCC's BBB and A-2 rating, and revised its outlook to negative from stable. Standard & Poor's decision was made as part of their annual review process and reflects the Company's supportive financial policies, scale, liquidity and cost-advantaged footprint.
On July 7, 2025, Moody's Ratings announced a long-term credit rating change for TDCC from Baa1 to Baa2 and affirmed TDCC's P-2 rating and its outlook of negative. On July 31, 2025, Fitch Ratings announced a long-term credit rating change for TDCC from BBB+ to BBB and a short-term credit rating change from F1 to F2, with its outlook remaining stable. The credit rating agencies' decisions were made to reflect the impact of current market conditions on the Company's operating results and cash flow, including the impact of global trade policy uncertainty and capacity additions in the industry, while recognizing the Company's strong asset base, strategic cost actions and long-term commitment to maintaining investment-grade quality.

TDCC
TDCC has committed to fund Dow Inc.'s dividends paid to common stockholders and share repurchases, as approved by the Board, as well as certain governance expenses. Funding is accomplished through intercompany loans. TDCC's Board reviews and determines a dividend distribution to Dow Inc. to settle the intercompany loans. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, TDCC declared a dividend of $240 million and paid a dividend of $252 million to Dow Inc. ($1,225 million of dividend declared and $1,237 million of dividend paid for the nine months
ended September 30, 2025). At September 30, 2025, TDCC's intercompany loan balance with Dow Inc. was insignificant.
Share Repurchase Program
On April 13, 2022, the Board approved a share repurchase program authorizing up to $3 billion for the repurchase of the Company's common stock, with no expiration date. The Company did not repurchase any of its common stock in the third quarter of 2025 (zero in the first nine months of 2025). At September 30, 2025, approximately $931 million of the share repurchase program authorization remained available for repurchases. As previously announced, the Company intends to repurchase shares at a minimum to cover dilution over the economic cycle. The Company may from time to time expand its share repurchases beyond dilution, based on a number of factors including macroeconomic conditions, free cash flow generation, and the Dow share price. Any share repurchases, when coupled with the Company's dividends, are intended to implement the long-term strategy of targeting shareholder remuneration of approximately 65 percent of Operating Net Income over the economic cycle.
Pension Plans
The Company has both funded and unfunded defined benefit pension plans that cover employees in the United States and a number of other countries. The Company's funding policy is to contribute to funded plans when pension laws and/or economics either require or encourage funding.
As part of its ongoing pension derisking initiatives, the Company initiated the termination of certain U.S. tax-qualified pension plans which include the tax-qualified benefit obligations for substantially all employees hired after January 1, 2008, who earned benefits based on a set percentage of annual pay, plus interest. As part of the plan termination process, the Company offered participants of these plans annuity or lump sum distribution options. Final asset distributions are expected to be paid from plan assets in the fourth quarter of 2025. The Company is also pursuing other pension derisking opportunities, including annuitization and risk transfer of certain other pension liabilities. These actions, if executed and inclusive of the termination of certain U.S. tax-qualified pension plans discussed above, are expected to result in non-operating and non-cash settlement charges in the range of $275 million to $350 million in the fourth quarter of 2025.
See Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2024 10-K for additional information related to the Company's pension plans.
Restructuring
The 2025 Restructuring Program is expected to result in additional cash expenditures of approximately $650 million primarily over the next four years and consist primarily of severance and related benefits costs, implementation costs related to decommissioning and demolition and additional costs associated with exit and disposal activities. Restructuring implementation costs totaled $5 million and $10 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.
Restructuring implementation and efficiency costs related to the 2023 Restructuring Program were zero and $50 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively ($55 million and $157 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively).
The Company expects to incur additional costs in the future related to its restructuring activities, which will be recognized as incurred. The Company also expects to incur additional employee-related costs, including involuntary termination benefits related to its other optimization activities. These costs cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the Company's restructuring activities.
Contractual Obligations
Information related to the Company’s contractual obligations, commercial commitments and expected cash requirements for interest can be found in Notes 14, 15, 16 and 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2024 10-K.

Fair Value Measurements
See Note 21 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for information concerning fair value measurements.
OTHER MATTERS
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2024 10-K describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The Company’s critical accounting policies that are impacted by judgments, assumptions and estimates are described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the 2024 10-K. Since December 31, 2024, there have been no material changes in the Company’s accounting policies that are impacted by judgments, assumptions and estimates.
2025 Goodwill Impairment Testing
In the second quarter of 2025, the Board approved actions to shut down certain upstream manufacturing assets. As a result of the announced actions, the Company identified potential indicators of goodwill impairment and evaluated whether the fair value of any reporting unit may be less than its carrying amount. The Company identified one reporting unit for which a quantitative interim goodwill impairment test was required. The results of the quantitative impairment test concluded that no goodwill impairment existed, as the fair value exceeded the carrying value of the reporting unit.
In the third quarter of 2025, as a result of continued macroeconomic challenges, the Company evaluated whether the fair value of any reporting unit may be less than its carrying amount. The Company identified one reporting unit for which a quantitative interim goodwill impairment test was required. The results of the quantitative impairment test concluded that no goodwill impairment existed, as the fair value exceeded the carrying value of the reporting unit.
The Company continues to monitor key factors that could impact the fair value of its reporting units, including changes in macroeconomic conditions or industry-specific trends, deterioration in financial performance, increases in market interest rates or adverse changes in regulatory or competitive environments. If these, or other adverse events occur, it may be necessary to perform additional impairment testing, which could result in a future goodwill impairment charge. For additional information, see Notes 5 and 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation
Union Carbide is and has been involved in a large number of asbestos-related suits filed primarily in state courts during the past several decades. These suits principally allege personal injury resulting from exposure to asbestos‑containing products and frequently seek both actual and punitive damages. The alleged claims primarily relate to products that Union Carbide sold in the past, alleged exposure to asbestos-containing products located on Union Carbide’s premises, and Union Carbide’s responsibility for asbestos suits filed against a former Union Carbide subsidiary, Amchem Products, Inc. (“Amchem”). In many cases, plaintiffs are unable to demonstrate that they have suffered any compensable loss as a result of such exposure, or that injuries incurred in fact resulted from exposure to Union Carbide’s products.
The table below provides information regarding asbestos-related claims pending against Union Carbide and Amchem based on criteria developed by Union Carbide and its external consultants:
| | | | | | | | |
| Asbestos-Related Claim Activity | 2025 | 2024 |
| Claims unresolved at Jan 1 | 5,813 | | 6,367 | |
| Claims filed | 3,407 | | 3,472 | |
| Claims settled, dismissed or otherwise resolved | (2,719) | | (4,469) | |
Claims unresolved at Sep 30 | 6,501 | | 5,370 | |
| Claimants with claims against both Union Carbide and Amchem | (1,192) | | (963) | |
Individual claimants at Sep 30 | 5,309 | | 4,407 | |
Plaintiffs’ lawyers often sue numerous defendants in individual lawsuits or on behalf of numerous claimants. As a result, the damages alleged are not expressly identified as to Union Carbide, Amchem or any other particular defendant, even when specific damages are alleged with respect to a specific disease or injury. For these reasons and based upon Union Carbide’s litigation and settlement experience, Union Carbide does not consider the damages alleged against Union Carbide and Amchem to be a meaningful factor in its determination of any potential asbestos-related liability.
For additional information, see Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation in Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements; Part II, Item 1. Legal Proceedings; and Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2024 10-K.

| ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Dow Inc. and The Dow Chemical Company (the "Companies") carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Companies' Disclosure Committee and the Companies' management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companies' disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to paragraph (b) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companies' disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Companies' internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 that was conducted during the quarter ended September 30, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companies' internal control over financial reporting.

| ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation
No material developments regarding this matter occurred in the first nine months of 2025. For a current status of this matter, see Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Securities Litigation
On August 29, 2025, a putative securities class action was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan alleging violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 against the Company, its Chief Executive Officer, its Chief Financial Officer, and its Chief Operating Officer due to alleged false and misleading statements regarding the Company’s ability to navigate macroeconomic and tariff-related pressures, competitive and pricing pressures and softening demand, and the Company’s ability to sustain its dividend, which allegedly caused the Company’s securities to trade at artificially inflated prices. The action seeks unspecified compensatory damages.
Subsequently, three putative shareholder derivative actions were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan on September 5, 2025, September 11, 2025, and September 18, 2025, which are based on the same alleged facts and circumstances as the above-referenced securities class action, and name certain of the Company's officers, including its Chief Executive Officer, its Chief Financial Officer, and its Chief Operating Officer, and members of its Board of Directors, as defendants. The derivative actions assert claims for violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, breach of fiduciary duty, and other claims, and seek to recover damages on behalf of the Company.
Environmental Proceedings
In October 2023, Region 6 of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") conducted an inspection of the Company’s Louisiana Operations under the EPA’s Risk Management Program ("RMP"). The inspection was initiated due to an incident at the Company's Glycol-2 unit in Plaquemine, Louisiana, on July 14, 2023, as previously disclosed by the Company. The EPA published its inspection report on January 26, 2024. On January 3, 2025, the Company received a Notice Letter from the EPA’s enforcement branch, which formally alleged 21 violations of RMP and Clean Air Act requirements and offered the Company an opportunity to confer with the EPA. Discussions between the Company and EPA are ongoing.
On September 29, 2025, the EPA informed the Company of its intention to seek a civil penalty for benzene emissions in Orange, Texas, alleged to be in excess of action levels set out in an existing 2021 consent decree. Discussions between the Company and EPA are ongoing.
On October 14, 2025, the EPA sent Dow Silicones Corporation a letter demanding payment of $329,000 in stipulated penalties incurred under the terms of the January 24, 2020 consent decree in United States of America, et al., v. Dow Silicones Corporation. The stipulated penalties result from self-reported violations of consent decree provisions since 2020. Payment of this stipulated penalty will resolve these violations and is a necessary step prior to termination of the consent decree.
Since December 31, 2024, there have been no material changes to the Company's Risk Factors, except as noted below, which was updated in the first, second and third quarters of 2025:
Global Economic Considerations: The Company operates in a global, competitive environment which gives rise to operating and market risk exposure.
The Company sells its broad range of products and services in a competitive, global environment, and competes worldwide for sales on the basis of product quality, price, technology and customer service. Increased levels of competition has resulted in lower prices and lower sales volume, which have had a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations. These factors are expected to continue and may worsen in the near term, which could continue to challenge the Company's ongoing results of operations. To address these challenges amidst the ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty, the Company has taken targeted cost reduction initiatives and other actions to advance its balanced capital allocation approach and enhance financial flexibility, and will continue to seek additional actions to mitigate the impact of macroeconomic uncertainty. Unforeseen macroeconomic conditions could result in additional actions that could adversely affect equity performance until market conditions improve. For additional information, see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Part I Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Sales of the Company's products are also subject to extensive federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations; trade agreements; import and export controls; taxes; and duties and tariffs. The imposition of additional regulations, controls, taxes, duties and tariffs or changes to bilateral and regional trade agreements could also result in lower sales volume, which could negatively impact the Company’s results of operations.
During 2025, the United States changed its long-standing trade policies and announced significant new tariffs on virtually all imported goods, with the exception of certain goods that are compliant with the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, a trade agreement which became effective in 2020. These actions triggered the negotiation of new trade agreements with certain U.S. trading partners. While these negotiations resulted in the reduction of certain recently imposed tariffs, the average U.S. tariff rate remains at its highest level since the 1930s. In response to the changes in U.S. trade policies, certain U.S. trading partners imposed retaliatory tariffs on U.S. imports. Shifts in tariffs, import/export restrictions, trade sanctions, sector specific trade barriers, and other governmental trade actions, whether enacted by the United States or other countries, and the associated uncertainty of long-term trade policies, could impact the Company's sales volume, sales price, and production and other costs. Changes in trade policies may also cause disruptions to material sourcing and availability, global supply chains and logistics and access to end markets. Additionally, changes in U.S. trade policy and associated responses from trading partners may create shifts in global market dynamics, disrupt the long-term planning process for governments and private enterprises and result in continued global financial market volatility. The impact of these changes in trade policies and the resulting trade and market uncertainty could have a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations.
Economic conditions around the world, and in certain industries and geographic regions in which the Company does business, also impact sales price and volume and the efficacy of the Company's supply chain. For example, long-term market uncertainty, an economic downturn driven by trade policies and inflationary pressures, and higher input costs have reduced demand for the Company's products, resulting in decreased sales price and volume. Adverse economic conditions have also caused supply chain constraints. These factors have had and are continuing to have a negative impact on the Company's results of operations. Additionally, political tensions; war, including the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East and between Russia and Ukraine with the related sanctions and export restrictions; terrorism; epidemics; pandemics; or political instability in the geographic regions or industries in which the Company sells its products could further reduce demand for the Company's products and result in decreased sales price and volume or supply chain disruptions, which could have a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations.
The Russia-Ukraine conflict has been ongoing for more than three years since Russia's February 2022 invasion of Ukraine, and although there have been recent efforts to seek a resolution, it remains unclear if these will be successful. In light of sanctions imposed by the United States, Canada, the European Union and other countries as a result of this conflict, Dow ceased in-bound investment to Russia and maintains reasonable, risk-based measures to ship into Russia only limited goods that comply with applicable legal restrictions. These actions have not had and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. The situation remains fluid and the ongoing conflict may result in additional economic sanctions or other measures, which could have a negative impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
These impacts could include decreased sales; supply chain and logistics disruptions; volatility in foreign exchange rates and interest rates; inflationary pressures on and availability of raw materials and energy, most notably in Europe; and heightened cybersecurity threats. Further, the intensity and duration of conflicts in the Middle East and potential expansion of hostilities in the region are difficult to predict and could disrupt the Company's supply chain operations, which could have a negative impact on the Company's results of operations.
In addition, volatility and disruption of financial markets could limit the ability of Dow's customers and suppliers to obtain adequate financing to maintain operations, which could result in a decrease in sales volume and have a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations. The Company’s global business operations also give rise to market risk exposure related to changes in inflation, foreign currency exchange rates, including the impact of foreign currency exchange rates resulting from highly inflationary economies such as Argentina, interest rates, commodity prices and other market factors such as equity prices. To manage such risks, the Company enters into hedging and other investment transactions, where deemed appropriate, pursuant to established guidelines and policies. If the Company fails to effectively manage such risks, it could have a negative impact on its results of operations.
Supply/Demand Balance: Earnings generated by the Company's products vary based in part on the balance of supply relative to demand within the industry.
The balance of supply relative to demand within the industry has been and continues to be significantly impacted by the addition of new capacity, especially for basic commodities where capacity is generally added in large increments as world-scale facilities are built. This has resulted in excess capacity which has disrupted and continues to disrupt regional industry supply and demand balances, particularly in Europe, the Middle East, Africa and India ("EMEAI") and Asia Pacific, resulting in downward pressure on prices and decreased operating rates, which has and continues to negatively impact the Company’s results of operations.
