Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Solstice Advanced Materials Inc. reported mixed 2025 results with solid sales growth but sharply lower earnings, initiated a quarterly dividend, and issued 2026 guidance. Fourth-quarter 2025 net sales were $987 million, up 8% year over year, driven by double-digit growth in Refrigerants, Nuclear (Alternative Energy Services), and Electronic Materials. However, Q4 net income attributable to Solstice fell to $41 million from $133 million, and Adjusted Standalone EBITDA declined to $189 million, with margin compressing to 19.1% due mainly to higher costs, refrigerant mix shifts, and plant downtime.

For full-year 2025, net sales reached $3.886 billion, up 3%, while net income attributable to Solstice dropped to $237 million from $594 million, reflecting higher income tax expense tied to the spin-off and softer margins. Full-year Adjusted Standalone EBITDA was $957 million, down 4%, with a 24.6% margin. Capital expenditures rose 38% to $408 million to support long-term growth, and net leverage stood at about 1.5x based on 2025 Adjusted Standalone EBITDA. The Board declared the company’s first quarterly dividend of $0.075 per share, payable March 10, 2026 to shareowners of record on February 24, 2026. For 2026, Solstice guided to net sales of $3.9–$4.1 billion, Adjusted EBITDA of $975–$1,025 million, and Adjusted Diluted EPS of $2.45–$2.75, alongside capital spending of $400–$425 million.

Positive

  • Initiation of quarterly dividend: The Board approved the company’s first quarterly cash dividend of $0.075 per share, payable March 10, 2026 to shareowners of record on February 24, 2026, signaling a commitment to returning capital to equity holders.
  • Healthy balance sheet and liquidity: As of December 31, 2025, Solstice reported approximately $534 million of cash and cash equivalents, total liquidity of about $1.5 billion, and a non-GAAP net leverage ratio of 1.5x based on 2025 Adjusted Standalone EBITDA, supporting financial flexibility.
  • 2026 guidance implies stable to growing earnings: For full-year 2026, Solstice guided to net sales of $3.9–$4.1 billion and Adjusted EBITDA of $975–$1,025 million, which, at the midpoint, is above 2025 Adjusted Standalone EBITDA of $957 million.
  • Targeted growth investments: Capital expenditures rose 38% to $408 million in 2025 to support long-term growth initiatives, including capacity, technology, and efficiency projects in high-growth areas such as nuclear conversion and advanced materials.

Negative

  • Significant decline in GAAP profitability: Full-year 2025 net income attributable to Solstice fell to $237 million from $594 million in 2024, a roughly 60% decrease, driven in part by higher income tax expense associated with the company’s separation from Honeywell.
  • Margin compression despite higher sales: Adjusted Standalone EBITDA decreased to $957 million from $995 million in 2024, and margin fell 176 basis points to 24.6%, as transitory costs, refrigerant product mix shifts, and plant downtime more than offset favorable pricing and volume growth.
  • Segment profitability deterioration: In Q4 2025, Refrigerants & Applied Solutions Segment Adjusted EBITDA dropped 25% year over year and segment margin decreased 1,225 basis points, while Electronic & Specialty Materials segment margin also declined, indicating broad margin pressure across the portfolio.

Insights

Sales grew modestly, margins and GAAP earnings fell sharply, but cash generation, leverage and new dividend support a stable outlook.

Solstice delivered 2025 net sales of $3.886 billion, up 3%, with Q4 showing $987 million, up 8% year over year. Growth was broad-based, especially in Refrigerants, Nuclear (Alternative Energy Services), and Electronic Materials, while Healthcare Packaging and certain specialty lines declined.

Profitability weakened meaningfully. Full-year net income attributable to Solstice dropped to $237 million from $594 million, with management citing higher income tax expense related to the spin-off. Adjusted Standalone EBITDA slipped to $957 million from $995 million and margins compressed, reflecting transitory costs, product mix shifts toward low global warming potential refrigerants, and plant downtime.

Despite margin pressure, Solstice increased capital expenditures to $408 million in 2025 to fund growth projects and ended with about $534 million of cash and a non-GAAP net leverage ratio of 1.5x. The Board declared a first quarterly dividend of $0.075 per share and provided 2026 guidance for net sales of $3.9–$4.1 billion and Adjusted EBITDA of $975–$1,025 million, indicating expectations for stable to slightly improved earnings on higher investment.

MORRIS PLAINS, N.J., February 11, 2026 – Solstice Advanced Materials Inc. (Nasdaq: SOLS) (“Solstice” or “the Company”), a global leader in high-performance specialty materials, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter of 2025.
“I’m pleased to report Solstice’s strong fourth quarter results, with better-than-anticipated results reinforcing the value of our differentiated technology platform and product offerings,” said David Sewell, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We are seeing continued momentum and demand in our businesses aligned with key secular growth trends, such as data centers, A.I., and nuclear energy, underscoring the significant opportunity for long-term growth in the attractive end markets we serve. We are delivering on our commitment to invest in projects that will drive capacity, technology, and operating efficiency in these high-growth areas, including our announcement just yesterday regarding our efforts to expand our nuclear conversion business. In parallel, we remain focused on allocating capital with discipline, and we are pleased to begin returning capital to shareholders through a quarterly dividend announced today.”

Adjusted Standalone EBITDA1
$189$235(20)%
Adjusted Standalone EBITDA Margin1
19.1%25.8%(662) bps
Net Sales in the fourth quarter of 2025 were $987 million, an 8% increase compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, reflecting a 10% increase in Net Sales in the Refrigerants & Applied Solutions segment and a 4% increase in Net Sales in the Electronic & Specialty Materials segment. Organic Net Sales1 increased by 6% in the fourth quarter driven by favorable pricing and volume growth.
Net Income attributable to Solstice in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $41 million, compared to Net Income attributable to Solstice of $133 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. The decline was primarily driven by higher operating costs, net interest expense, and non-controlling interest, partially offset by higher Net Sales and lower income tax expense.
Adjusted Standalone EBITDA1 for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $189 million, a decrease of 20% compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. Adjusted Standalone EBITDA Margin1 for the fourth quarter of 2025 decreased 662 basis points to 19.1%. The decline was primarily driven by previously anticipated factors including transitory costs, the margin impact of the ongoing transition to low global warming potential (“LGWP”) refrigerants, and the impact of plant downtime and cost absorption, which more than offset strong top line growth.

Net Sales for the full year 2025 were $3.9 billion, a 3% increase compared to the full year 2024, reflecting a 3% increase in Net Sales in the Refrigerants & Applied Solutions segment and a 5% increase in Net Sales in the Electronic & Specialty Materials segment. Organic Net Sales1 increased by 2% for the full year 2025 driven by volume growth and favorable pricing in Refrigerants, demand-driven volume growth in Electronic Materials, and favorable pricing in Research & Performance Chemicals. This increase was partially offset by the impact of opportunistic Nuclear (Alternative Energy Services, or “AES”) sales that occurred in 2024 and volume declines in Healthcare Packaging.
Net Income attributable to Solstice for the full year 2025 was $237 million compared to Net Income attributable to Solstice of $594 million for the full year 2024, which includes the impact of higher income tax expense driven by frictional taxes associated with the Company’s spin-off from Honeywell.
Adjusted Standalone EBITDA1 for the full year 2025 was $957 million, a decrease of 4% compared to the full year 2024. Adjusted Standalone EBITDA Margin1 for the full year 2025 decreased 176 bps to 24.6%. The decline was primarily driven by refrigerants product mix as a result of the ongoing transition to LGWP refrigerants, which more than offset favorable pricing.

Financial Position
Capital Expenditures for the full year 2025 were $408 million, a 38% increase compared to the prior-year period due to planned increases in capital spending to drive long-term growth.
Adjusted Standalone EBITDA - capex1 for the full year 2025 was $549 million, a 21% decrease compared to the prior year. The decrease in Adjusted Standalone EBITDA - capex1 was primarily driven by the increase in Capital Expenditures and a decline in Adjusted Standalone EBITDA1.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s Total Long-Term Debt was $2.0 billion and Cash and Cash Equivalents were approximately $534 million. As a result, the Company’s Net Leverage ratio was approximately 1.5x based on full year 2025 Adjusted Standalone EBITDA2. Total liquidity was approximately $1.5 billion, including Cash and Cash Equivalents and $1.0 billion of availability through the Company’s revolving credit facility.
On February 9, 2026, the Solstice Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.075 per share. The dividend is expected to be paid on March 10, 2026 to shareowners of record as of February 24, 2026.

Net Sales for the Refrigerants & Applied Solutions segment were $710 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, up 10% compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. Net Sales in Refrigerants increased 20% in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, reflecting strong volume and pricing across the business’ product offerings. Net Sales in Nuclear (Alternative Energy Services) increased 39% in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, reflecting both favorable pricing and increased volumes. These increases were partially offset by a 25% decline in Net Sales in Healthcare Packaging driven by anticipated customer destocking and a 5% decline in Building Solutions & Intermediates.
Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the Refrigerants & Applied Solutions segment decreased 25% in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin for the segment decreased 1,225 basis points compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by previously anticipated factors, including transitory cost items, plant under absorption in Healthcare Packaging in the quarter due to customer destocking, and stationary refrigerant product mix as a result of the near-term impact of the ongoing transition to LGWP refrigerants. These decreases were partially offset by favorable pricing and volume growth.

Net Sales for the Electronic & Specialty Materials segment were $277 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, up 4% compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. Growth was primarily driven by a 19% increase in Electronic Materials attributable to volume growth driven by strong demand. This increase was partially offset by a 10% decline in Safety & Defense Solutions driven by lower volumes due to order timing, as well as a 3% decline in Research & Performance Chemicals due to lower construction related demand.
Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the Electronic & Specialty Materials segment decreased 11% in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin for the segment decreased 294 basis points compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by the impact of previously contemplated transitory cost items and expected plant downtime.
Corporate Expenses
Corporate Expenses totaled $52 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $48 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. The estimated incremental standalone cost adjustments were negligible in the fourth quarter of 2025, as compared to $26 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, as the Company’s efforts to prepare to operate independently were completed in anticipation of the October 2025 separation from Honeywell.
Income Tax Expense
Income Tax Expense was $32 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, a decrease of $10 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 due to lower pre-tax income.
Income Tax Expense was $362 million for the full year 2025, an increase of $170 million compared to the full year 2024, primarily driven by frictional taxes associated with the Company’s separation from Honeywell.

“As we move into 2026, we are confident in our ability to build on our track record of operational excellence and continue unleashing growth across the business,” said David Sewell, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We are well-positioned to deliver on our first quarter and full-year 2026 targets, and we will remain focused on driving shareholder value as we execute our strategy and position Solstice for continued long-term success.”

The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) or Adjusted Net Earnings per Share attributable to Solstice to GAAP net income (loss) attributable to Solstice, due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. Because deductions (such as repositioning charges, impairment charges, and litigation and other matters) used to calculate projected net income (loss) vary based on actual events, the Company is not able to forecast on a GAAP basis with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide a GAAP calculation of projected net income (loss) at this time. The amount of these deductions may be material and, therefore, could result in projected GAAP net income (loss) being materially less than projected Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP). These statements represent forward-looking information and a projected financial outlook, and actual results may vary. Please see the risks and assumptions referred to in the “Forward-Looking Statements” section of this news release. The guidance in this news release is only effective as of the date it is given and will not be updated or affirmed unless and until the Company publicly announces updated or affirmed guidance.
1 This is a non-GAAP measure or a non-GAAP ratio. For further information on non-GAAP measures and non-GAAP ratios, please refer to the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of this news release. Please also refer to tables at the end of this news release for a reconciliation of historical non-GAAP measures and ratios to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
2 The Company defines Adjusted Diluted EPS as adjusted net income divided by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding. The Company defines Adjusted Net Income as net income attributable to Solstice Advanced Materials excluding the after-tax impact of amortization of acquired intangibles, remeasurement of foreign currencies, nonoperating pension and other postretirement expense (income), transaction-related costs, repositioning charges, asset retirement obligations accretion, asset impairment charges, litigation costs and insurance settlements (net of recoveries), gains and losses on disposal of assets, and certain other items that are otherwise of an unusual or non-recurring nature.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures to supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These include (1) Organic sales percentage, (2) Adjusted EBITDA, (3) Adjusted EBITDA Margin, (4) Adjusted Standalone EBITDA, (5) Adjusted Standalone EBITDA margin, (6) Adjusted Standalone EBITDA - capex, (7) Cash conversion, (8) Net debt, (9) Total leverage ratio, and (10) Net leverage ratio.
Below are definitions and reconciliations of certain non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management believes that, when considered together with reported amounts, these measures are useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in the analysis of ongoing operating trends. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with a meaningful measure of its performance period to period, align the measures to how management evaluates performance internally, and make it easier for investors to compare our performance to peers. These measures should be considered in addition to, and not as replacements for, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure. The non-GAAP financial measures we use are as follows:
Organic sales percentage: The Company defines organic sales percentage as the year-over-year change in reported sales relative to the comparable period, excluding the impact on sales from foreign currency translation and acquisitions, net of divestitures, for the first 12 months following the transaction date. We believe this measure is useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends.
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Standalone EBITDA, and Adjusted Standalone EBITDA margin: The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income excluding income taxes, depreciation, amortization, interest and other financial charges, remeasurement of foreign currencies, stock-based compensation expense, pension and other postretirement expense (income), transaction-related costs, repositioning charges, asset retirement obligations accretion, asset impairment charges, litigation costs and insurance settlements (net of recoveries), gains and losses on disposal of assets, and certain other items that are otherwise of an unusual or non-recurring nature. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Net sales. The Company defines Adjusted Standalone EBITDA as Adjusted EBITDA less estimated recurring and ongoing costs required to operate a new independent public company, and autonomous entity adjustments as well as adjustments for certain other employee compensation expense for employees that have historically been shared with other Honeywell businesses and were transferred to the Company in connection with the spin-off. The Company defines Adjusted Standalone EBITDA Margin as Adjusted Standalone EBITDA divided by Net sales. We believe these measures are useful to investors as they provide greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making, as well as understanding ongoing operating trends.
Adjusted Standalone EBITDA – capex, and Cash Conversion: The Company defines Adjusted Standalone EBITDA - capex as Adjusted Standalone EBITDA less capital expenditures. Capital expenditures represent capital expenditures incurred, whether accrued or paid in the current year. The Company defines cash conversion as Adjusted Standalone EBITDA - capex divided by Adjusted Standalone EBITDA. We believe these measures are useful to investors and management as a measure of cash generated by operations that can be used to invest in future growth through new business development activities or acquisitions, pay dividends, repurchase stock, or repay debt obligations prior to their maturities. These measures can also be used to evaluate our ability to generate cash flow from operations and the impact that this cash flow has on our liquidity.
Net debt, total leverage ratio and net leverage ratio: The Company defines net debt as total debt less cash. The Company defines total leverage ratio as total debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA. The Company defines net leverage ratio as net debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA. For purposes of showing total leverage ratio and net leverage ratio, we use Adjusted Standalone EBITDA instead of Adjusted EBITDA. We believe these measures are useful to investors and management in understanding our overall financial condition.
