Current thesis
The strongest supported bull case is self-help: the May 8, 2026 restructuring disclosure frames Stickney as a structurally challenged asset and quantifies meaningful post-transition free-cash-flow, EBITDA, and EPS improvement if the shutdown and production transfer are executed as planned. Q1 commentary in stored earnings coverage also pointed to strength in Performance Chemicals and better cash generation, which helps offset weak CMC conditions.
