Organic sales grew in all
geographic regions with the U.S. and Canada growing at 6%, EMEA at 1%, Asia at 7% and
Latin America at 14%.”

Commenting on full year 2024 results, Dr.
We grew organic
sales in each of the regions with both our Color, Additives and Inks and Specialty Engineered
Materials segments growing at 3% and 6%, respectively, while expanding adjusted EBITDA
margins 90 and 110 basis points, respectively, over 2023.”
This translates to 6% adjusted EPS growth, excluding the impact of
foreign exchange, and an encouraging start to the year, especially considering the outsized
timing of defense orders that benefited the first quarter last year.”
