KRONOS WORLDWIDE, INC. REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER 2025 RESULTS

Dallas, Texas, March 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kronos Worldwide, Inc. (NYSE:KRO) today reported a net loss of $82.8 million, or $.72 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to a net loss of $13.2 million, or $.12 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2024. For the full year of 2025, Kronos Worldwide reported a net loss of $110.9 million, or $.96 per share, compared to net income of $86.2 million, or $.75 per share, for the full year of 2024. Our net loss increased in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 due to lower income from operations primarily due to higher unabsorbed fixed production costs resulting from production curtailments and lower average TiO2 selling prices somewhat offset by higher sales volumes. In addition, we recorded non-cash deferred income tax expense of $8.5 million ($.07 per share) related to the recognition of a valuation allowance on our German net deferred tax asset. Our net loss increased in the full year of 2025 compared to the full year of 2024 primarily due to higher unabsorbed fixed production costs resulting from production curtailments, lower average TiO2 selling prices, and higher distribution and warehousing costs. The increase in distribution and warehousing costs was primarily in the first quarter of 2025, when we positioned finished goods inventory in the U.S. in response to anticipated U.S. federal government tariff announcements. The full year of 2025 also included non-cash deferred income tax expense of $19.3 million ($.17 per share) related to German tax legislation enacted in the third quarter of 2025 and the fourth quarter recognition of a valuation allowance related to our German net deferred tax asset, as noted above. Comparability of our results are also impacted by the effects of changes in currency exchange rates. As previously reported, effective July 16, 2024, we acquired the 50% joint venture interest in Louisiana Pigment Company, L.P. (“LPC”) previously held by Venator Investments, Ltd. Prior to the acquisition, we held a 50% joint venture interest in LPC. Following the acquisition, LPC became a wholly-owned subsidiary of ours. In 2025, LPC merged into our wholly-owned subsidiary Kronos Louisiana, Inc. We accounted for the acquisition as a business combination. The results of operations of LPC have been included in our results of operations beginning as of the acquisition date. Net income for the full year of 2024 includes the recognition of a non-cash gain of $64.5 million ($50.9 million, or $.44 per share, net of income tax expense) associated with the remeasurement of our investment in LPC as a result of the acquisition.
