Filing receipts

For the three months comparison periods of 2026 and 2025, the specialty materials segment reported higher net sales due to the acquisition of Calca in the fourth quarter of 2025, but lower operating profit primarily due to the impact of product shipment mix at AMPAC.

This increase was partially offset by the impact of product shipment mix at AMPAC.

The following table details the approximate components of the changes in petroleum additives net sales between the first three months of 2026 and 2025.
