Sensient Technologies reported stronger quarterly results, with revenue up to $435.8 million from $392.3 million a year earlier, driven by higher volumes, favorable foreign exchange and pricing. Gross margin improved to 35.0% from 33.6%, reflecting better pricing and volumes, partly offset by higher raw material costs.
Operating income rose to $66.7 million with a margin of 15.3%, compared with $53.5 million and 13.6%, while net earnings increased to $44.2 million and diluted EPS to $1.04 from $0.81. Adjusted metrics benefited from the absence of prior-year Portfolio Optimization Plan costs, and adjusted EBITDA grew to $86.0 million. The company completed its portfolio plan, expects about $8 million in annual cost savings beginning in 2026, and ended the quarter with $38.5 million in cash and $767.8 million of long‑term debt, including new €65 million senior notes used to repay revolver borrowings.
