Trinseo S.A. is a specialty material solutions provider that partners with companies across various industries to deliver innovative and sustainable material solutions. The company operates in sectors such as building and construction, consumer goods, medical, and mobility.
In its first quarter of 2025, Trinseo reported a net loss of $79 million, which included $25 million in refinancing costs. Despite the loss, the company achieved an adjusted EBITDA of $65 million, marking a $20 million increase from the previous year, driven by polycarbonate technology licensing income and restructuring savings.
Key financial metrics revealed a 13% decrease in net sales to $785 million due to lower sales volumes across all segments, although this was partially offset by higher prices from raw material cost pass-throughs. The Engineered Materials segment saw a slight decline in net sales but improved margins, while the Polymer Solutions segment experienced a significant drop in sales but benefited from cost reductions and licensing income.
Looking ahead, Trinseo’s management anticipates an adjusted EBITDA of $55 million to $70 million for the second quarter of 2025, with expectations of seasonally higher volumes and improved performance in certain segments. However, the company remains cautious due to macroeconomic uncertainties and has withdrawn its full-year guidance.
