“We have made meaningful progress on the actions within our control while navigating continued pressure in certain markets during the second quarter. The benefits from our Catalyst transformation initiative have partly offset the impact of weaker market conditions and our teams delivered volume gains in the competitive markets we serve. On the cost side, we are accelerating the previously announced closure of our Carbon Materials and Chemicals (CMC) plant located at Stickney, Illinois, and advancing the Railroad and Utility Products and Services (RUPS) network optimization efforts to improve utilization and reduce operating costs. At the same time, record year-to-date operating and free cash flow performance enabled us to reduce debt and return capital to shareholders through share repurchases and quarterly dividends.”
