Reports Q4 revenue $3.19B, consensus $3.21B. Commenting on the results, Air Products (APD)’ Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Seifi Ghasemi said, “For our fiscal fourth quarter, the team at Air Products delivered adjusted EPS up 13 percent over last year and industry-leading adjusted EBITDA margin of more than 44 percent. We also completed the strategic divestiture of the LNG business at the end of September, demonstrating our commitment to our core industrial gas business while providing clean hydrogen at scale to serve significant demand in the heavy transportation and industrial sectors. The 15-year supply agreement we signed with TotalEnergies to provide 70,000 tons of green hydrogen annually starting in 2030 is a great example of our ability to sign offtake agreements that are aligned to our traditional on-site business model. Air Products also continues to generate strong and steady cash flow that supports disciplined capital allocation and our long history of returning cash to shareholders. This year, we expect to pay out approximately $1.6 billion in dividends to our shareholders.”
