FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain information set forth in this report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All statements other than historical factual information are forward-looking statements, including without limitation statements regarding: projections of revenue, expenses, profit, profit margins, tax rates, tax provisions, cash flows, pension and benefit obligations and funding requirements, our liquidity position or other projected financial measures; management’s plans and strategies for future operations, including statements relating to anticipated operating performance, cost reductions, restructuring activities, new product and service developments, competitive strengths or market position, acquisitions, divestitures, spin-offs or other distributions, strategic opportunities, securities offerings, stock repurchases, dividends and executive compensation; growth, declines and other trends in markets we sell into; new or modified laws, regulations and accounting pronouncements; outstanding claims, legal proceedings, tax audits and assessments and other contingent liabilities; foreign currency exchange rates and fluctuations in those rates; general economic and capital markets conditions; the timing of any of the foregoing; assumptions underlying any of the foregoing; and any other statements that address events or developments that we intend or believe will or may occur in the future. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “anticipates” or “intends” or the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy. We may also make additional forward-looking statements from time to time. All such subsequent forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, by us or on our behalf, are also expressly qualified by these cautionary statements.
All forward-looking statements, including without limitation any projections derived from management’s examination of historical operating trends, are based upon our current expectations and various assumptions. Our expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them, but there can be no assurance that management’s expectations, beliefs and projections will be achieved. All forward-looking statements apply only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise forward-looking statements whether because of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by securities and other applicable law.
There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in or contemplated by this report. Any forward-looking statements should be considered in light of the risks set forth in “Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors” below and “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

HUNTSMAN INTERNATIONAL LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. GENERAL
Certain Definitions
For convenience in this report, the terms “Company,” “Huntsman,” “our,” “us” or “we” may be used to refer to Huntsman Corporation and, unless the context otherwise requires, its subsidiaries and predecessors. In this report, “Huntsman International” refers to Huntsman International LLC (our wholly-owned subsidiary).
In this report, we may use, without definition, the common names of competitors or other industry participants. We may also use the common names or abbreviations for certain chemicals or products.
Interim Financial Statements
Our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and Huntsman International’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP” or “U.S. GAAP”) and in management’s opinion reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of results of operations, comprehensive (loss) income, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for the full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for our Company and Huntsman International.
Description of Businesses
We are a global manufacturer of diversified organic chemical products. We operate in
Huntsman Corporation and Huntsman International Financial Statements
Except where otherwise indicated, these notes relate to the condensed consolidated financial statements for both our Company and Huntsman International. The differences between our condensed consolidated financial statements and Huntsman International’s condensed consolidated financial statements relate primarily to different capital structures and purchase accounting recorded at our Company for the 2003 step-acquisition of Huntsman International Holdings LLC, the former parent company of Huntsman International that was merged into Huntsman International in 2005.
Principles of Consolidation
Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries and any variable interest entities for which we are the primary beneficiary. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Huntsman International declared and paid to us distributions in the form of certain affiliate accounts receivable during 2023.
Reclassfications
Certain amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements for prior periods have been recast to present the results of operations of our textile chemicals and dyes business (“Textile Effects Business”) as discontinued operations. For more information, see “Note 3. Discontinued Operations—Sale of Textile Effects Business.”
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent Developments
Planned Separation of Shanghai Lianheng Isocyanate Co. Ltd. Joint Venture
On July 31, 2023, we jointly announced with BASF the planned separation of Shanghai Lianheng Isocyanate Co. Ltd. (“SLIC”), our manufacturing joint venture with BASF. Following the separation, we will operate an independent manufacturing facility at the site in Caojing, China. The separation is expected to become effective during the fourth quarter of 2023 and is subject to pending regulatory authority approvals, permits and other customary closing conditions.
2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
There were no accounting pronouncements that we adopted during the six months ended June 30, 2023. Recently issued accounting pronouncements that become effective subsequent to June 30, 2023 either will not have a material impact on us or are not applicable to us.

Restructuring Activities
Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2022, we implemented a restructuring program to further realign our cost structure with additional restructuring in Europe. This program is associated with all of our segments and includes exiting and consolidating certain facilities, workforce relocation to lower cost locations and further personnel rationalization.

A/R Programs
Our U.S. accounts receivable securitization program (“U.S. A/R Program”) and our European accounts receivable securitization program (“EU A/R Program” and collectively with the U.S. A/R Program, “A/R Programs”) are structured so that we transfer certain of our trade receivables to the U.S. special purpose entity (“U.S. SPE”) and the European special purpose entity (“EU SPE”) in transactions intended to be true sales or true contributions. The receivables collateralize debt incurred by the U.S. SPE and the EU SPE.

Compliance with Covenants
We believe that we are in compliance with the covenants contained in the agreements governing our material debt instruments, including our 2022 Revolving Credit Facility, our A/R Programs and our senior notes.
8. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
We are exposed to market risks, such as changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and commodity prices. From time to time, we enter into transactions, including transactions involving derivative instruments, to manage certain of these exposures. We also hedge our net investment in certain European operations.
Our revenues and expenses are denominated in various foreign currencies, and our cash flows and earnings are thus subject to fluctuations due to exchange rate variations. From time to time, we may enter into foreign currency derivative instruments to minimize the short-term impact of movements in foreign currency rates. Where practicable, we generally net multicurrency cash balances among our subsidiaries to help reduce exposure to foreign currency exchange rates. Certain other exposures may be managed from time to time through financial market transactions, principally through the purchase of spot or forward foreign exchange contracts (generally with maturities of
From time to time, we may purchase interest rate swaps and/or other derivative instruments to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on our floating-rate exposures. Under interest rate swaps, we agree with other parties to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed-rate and floating-rate interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed notional principal amount.
We review our non-U.S. dollar denominated debt and derivative instruments to determine the appropriate amounts designated as hedges. As of June 30, 2023, we have designated approximately

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The fair values of non-qualified employee benefit plan investments are obtained through market observable pricing using prevailing market prices (Level 1). The estimated fair values of our long-term debt are based on quoted market prices for the identical liability when traded in an active market (Level 1). Our investment in Venator is marked to fair value, which is obtained through market observable pricing using prevailing market prices (Level 1). The fair value estimates presented herein are based on pertinent information available to management as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Although we are not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the estimated fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since June 30, 2023, and current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.

14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Matters
On April 29, 2022, a New Orleans jury awarded us approximately $
We are a party to various other proceedings instituted by private plaintiffs, governmental authorities and others arising under provisions of applicable laws, including various environmental, products liability and other laws. We do not believe that the outcome of any of these matters will have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
15. ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH AND SAFETY MATTERS
EHS Capital Expenditures
We may incur future costs for capital improvements and general compliance under environmental, health and safety (“EHS”) laws, including costs to acquire, maintain and repair pollution control equipment. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, our capital expenditures from continuing operations for EHS matters totaled $
Environmental Reserves
We have accrued liabilities relating to anticipated environmental cleanup obligations, site reclamation and closure costs and known penalties. Liabilities are recorded when potential liabilities are either known or considered probable and can be reasonably estimated. Our liability estimates are calculated using present value techniques as appropriate and are based upon requirements placed upon us by regulators, available facts, existing technology and past experience. The environmental liabilities do not include amounts recorded as asset retirement obligations. We had accrued $
Environmental Matters
Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA”) and similar state laws, a current or former owner or operator of real property in the U.S. may be liable for remediation costs regardless of whether the release or disposal of hazardous substances was in compliance with law at the time it occurred, and a current owner or operator may be liable regardless of whether it owned or operated the facility at the time of the release. Outside the U.S., analogous contaminated property laws can hold past owners and/or operators liable for remediation at former facilities. Currently, there are approximately
former facilities or third-party sites in the U.S. for which we have been notified of potential claims against us for cleanup liabilities, including, but not limited to, sites listed under CERCLA. Based on current information and past experiences at other CERCLA sites, we do not expect these third-party claims to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”) in the U.S. and similar state laws, we may be required to remediate contamination originating from our properties. Similar laws exist in a number of non-U.S. locations in which we currently operate, or previously operated, manufacturing facilities. Some of our manufacturing sites have an extended history of industrial chemical manufacturing and use, including on-site waste disposal. We are aware of soil, groundwater or surface contamination from past operations at some of our sites, and we may find contamination at other sites in the future. For example, our Geismar, Louisiana facility is the subject of ongoing remediation requirements imposed under RCRA.
North Maybe Canyon Mine Remediation
The North Maybe Canyon Mine site is a CERCLA site and involves a former phosphorous mine near Soda Springs, Idaho, which is believed to have been operated by several companies, including a predecessor company to us. In 2004, the U.S. Forest Service notified us that we are a CERCLA potentially responsible party (“PRP”) for contamination originating from the site. In February 2010, we and Wells Cargo (another PRP) agreed to conduct a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study of a portion of the site and are currently engaged in that process. At this time, we are unable to reasonably estimate our potential liabilities at this site.

Stock Options
The fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of our common stock through the grant date. The expected term of options granted was estimated based on the contractual term of the instruments and employees’ expected exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The assumptions noted below represent the weighted average of the assumptions utilized for stock options granted during the periods.
During each of the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022,

Nonvested Shares
Nonvested shares granted under the stock-based compensation plans consist of restricted stock and performance share unit awards, which are accounted for as equity awards, and phantom stock, which is accounted for as a liability award because it can be settled in either stock or cash. The fair value of each restricted stock and phantom stock award is estimated to be the closing stock price of Huntsman’s stock on the date of grant.
We grant two types of performance share unit awards. For one type of performance share unit award, the performance criteria are total stockholder return of our common stock relative to the total stockholder return of a specified industry peer group for the
During the first quarter of 2022, we granted a second type of performance share unit award, which also includes a market condition.

17. INCOME TAXES
We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting purposes. We evaluate deferred tax assets to determine whether it is more likely than not that they will be realized. Valuation allowances are reviewed on an individual tax jurisdiction basis to analyze whether there is sufficient positive or negative evidence to support a change in judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax assets. These conclusions require significant judgment. In evaluating the objective evidence that historical results provide, we consider the cyclicality of our businesses and cumulative income or losses during the applicable period. Cumulative losses incurred over the applicable period limits our ability to consider other subjective evidence such as our projections for the future. Changes in expected future income in applicable jurisdictions could affect the realization of deferred tax assets in those jurisdictions.

Huntsman International
Huntsman International recorded income tax expense from continuing operations of $
18. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic income per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income attributable to Huntsman Corporation by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share reflects all potential dilutive common shares outstanding during the period and is computed by dividing net income attributable to Huntsman Corporation by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period increased by the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding as potential dilutive securities.
Basic and diluted income per share is determined using the following information (in millions):

19. OPERATING SEGMENT INFORMATION
We derive our revenues, earnings and cash flows from the manufacture and sale of a wide variety of diversified organic chemical products. We have
operating segments, which are also our reportable segments: Polyurethanes, Performance Products and Advanced Materials. We have organized our business and derived our operating segments around differences in product lines.
The major products of each reportable operating segment are as follows:
Segment |
| Products |
Polyurethanes | | MDI, polyols, TPU and other polyurethane-related products |
Performance Products | | Specialty amines, ethyleneamines, maleic anhydride and technology licenses |
Advanced Materials | | Technologically-advanced epoxy, phenoxy, acrylic, polyurethane and acrylonitrile-butadiene-based polymer formulations; high performance thermoset resins, curing agents, toughening agents, and carbon nanotubes additives |
Sales between segments are generally recognized at external market prices and are eliminated in consolidation. We use adjusted EBITDA to measure the financial performance of our global business units and for reporting the results of our operating segments. This measure includes all operating items relating to the businesses. The adjusted EBITDA of operating segments excludes items that principally apply to our Company as a whole. The following schedule includes revenues and adjusted EBITDA for each of our reportable operating segments (dollars in millions).

(1) | We use segment adjusted EBITDA as the measure of each segment’s profit or loss. We believe that segment adjusted EBITDA more accurately reflects what the chief operating decision maker uses to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and assess their financial performance. Segment adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income of Huntsman Corporation or Huntsman International, as appropriate, before interest, income tax, depreciation and amortization, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and certain Corporate and other items, as well as eliminating the following adjustments: (a) business acquisition and integration expenses and purchase accounting inventory adjustments; (b) fair value adjustments to Venator investment, net; (c) certain legal and other settlements and related expenses; (d) costs associated with the Albemarle Settlement, net; (e) gain (loss) on sale of business/assets; (f) income from transition services arrangements; (g) certain nonrecurring information technology project implementation costs; (h) amortization of pension and postretirement actuarial losses; (i) plant incident remediation credits (j) restructuring, impairment, plant closing and transition costs; and (k) (loss) income from discontinued operations, net of tax. |
(2) | Corporate and other costs, net includes unallocated corporate overhead, unallocated foreign currency exchange gains and losses, LIFO inventory valuation reserve adjustments, nonoperating income and expense and gains and losses on the disposition of corporate assets. |
(3) | Includes costs associated with transition activities related primarily to our Corporate program to optimize our global approach to leverage shared services capabilities. |

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which we supplement with certain non-GAAP financial information. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures, and other companies may define such measures differently. We encourage investors to review our financial statements and the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. These non-GAAP measures exclude the impact of certain income and expenses that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating results.
Adjusted EBITDA
Our management uses adjusted EBITDA to assess financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income of Huntsman Corporation or Huntsman International, as appropriate, before interest, income tax, depreciation and amortization, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and certain Corporate and other items, as well as eliminating the following adjustments: (a) business acquisition and integration expenses and purchase accounting inventory adjustments; (b) EBITDA from discontinued operations; (c) fair value adjustments to Venator investment, net; (d) certain legal and other settlements and related expenses; (e) costs associated with the Albemarle Settlement, net; (f) (gain) loss on sale of business/assets; (g) income from transition services arrangements; (h) certain nonrecurring information technology project implementation costs; (i) amortization of pension and postretirement actuarial losses; (j) plant incident remediation credits; and (k) restructuring, impairment and plant closing and transition costs. We believe that net income of Huntsman Corporation or Huntsman International, as appropriate, is the performance measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP that is most directly comparable to adjusted EBITDA.
We believe adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in assessing the businesses’ ongoing financial performance and provides improved comparability between periods through the exclusion of certain items that management believes are not indicative of the businesses’ operational profitability and that may obscure underlying business results and trends. However, this measure should not be considered in isolation or viewed as a substitute for net income of Huntsman Corporation or Huntsman International, as appropriate, or other measures of performance determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Moreover, adjusted EBITDA as used herein is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies due to potential inconsistencies in the methods of calculation. Our management believes this measure is useful to compare general operating performance from period to period and to make certain related management decisions. Adjusted EBITDA is also used by securities analysts, lenders and others in their evaluation of different companies because it excludes certain items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. For example, interest expense can be highly dependent on a company’s capital structure, debt levels and credit ratings. Therefore, the impact of interest expense on earnings can vary significantly among companies. In addition, the tax positions of companies can vary because of their differing abilities to take advantage of tax benefits and because of the tax policies of the various jurisdictions in which they operate. As a result, effective tax rates and tax expense can vary considerably among companies. Finally, companies employ productive assets of different ages and utilize different methods of acquiring and depreciating such assets. This can result in considerable variability in the relative costs of productive assets and the depreciation and amortization expense among companies.
Nevertheless, our management recognizes that there are material limitations associated with the use of adjusted EBITDA in the evaluation of our Company as compared to net income of Huntsman Corporation or Huntsman International, as appropriate, which reflects overall financial performance. For example, we have borrowed money in order to finance our operations and interest expense is a necessary element of our costs and ability to generate revenue. Our management compensates for the limitations of using adjusted EBITDA by using this measure to supplement U.S. GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business rather than U.S. GAAP results alone.
Adjusted Net Income
Adjusted net income is computed by eliminating the after-tax amounts related to the following from net income attributable to Huntsman Corporation: (a) business acquisition and integration expenses and purchase accounting inventory adjustments; (b) loss (income) from discontinued operations; (c) fair value adjustments to Venator investment, net; (d) certain legal and other settlements and related expenses; (e) costs associated with the Albemarle Settlement, net; (f) (gain) loss on sale of business/assets; (g) income from transition services arrangements; (h) certain nonrecurring information technology project implementation costs; (i) amortization of pension and postretirement actuarial losses; (j) plant incident remediation credits; and (k) restructuring, impairment and plant closing and transition costs. Basic adjusted net income per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Adjusted diluted net income per share reflects all potential dilutive common shares outstanding during the period and is computed by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period increased by the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding as dilutive securities. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share amounts are presented solely as supplemental information.
We believe adjusted net income is useful to investors in assessing the businesses’ ongoing financial performance and provides improved comparability between periods through the exclusion of certain items that management believes are not indicative of the businesses’ operational profitability and that may obscure underlying business results and trends.
Free Cash Flow
We believe free cash flow is an important indicator of our liquidity as it measures the amount of cash we generate. Management internally uses a free cash flow measure: (a) to evaluate our liquidity, (b) evaluate strategic investments, (c) plan stock buyback and dividend levels and (d) evaluate our ability to incur and service debt.
Adjusted Effective Tax Rate
We believe that the effective tax rate of Huntsman Corporation or Huntsman International, as appropriate, is the performance measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP that is most directly comparable to adjusted effective tax rate. We believe our adjusted effective tax rate provides improved comparability between periods through the exclusion of certain items, such as, business acquisition and integration expenses and purchase accounting inventory adjustments, certain legal and other settlements and related expenses, gains on sale of businesses/assets and certain tax only items, including tax law changes not yet enacted, that we believe are not indicative of the businesses’ operational profitability and that may obscure underlying business results and trends.
Our forward-looking adjusted effective tax rate is calculated based on our forecast effective tax rate, and the range of our forward-looking adjusted effective tax rate equals the range of our forecast effective tax rate. We disclose forward-looking adjusted effective tax rate because we cannot adequately forecast certain items and events that may or may not impact us in the near future, such as business acquisition and integration expenses and purchase accounting inventory adjustments, certain legal and other settlements and related expenses, gains on sale of businesses/assets and certain tax only items, including tax law changes not yet enacted. Each of such adjustment has not yet occurred, is out of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. In our view, our forward-looking adjusted effective tax rate represents the forecast effective tax rate on our underlying business operations but does not reflect any adjustments related to the items noted above that may occur and can cause our effective tax rate to differ.
Three Months Ended June 30, 2023 Compared with Three Months Ended June 30, 2022
For the three months ended June 30, 2023, income from continuing operations attributable to Huntsman Corporation was $21 million, a decrease of $194 million from $215 million in the 2022 period. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, income from continuing operations attributable to Huntsman International was $21 million, a decrease of $195 million from $216 million in the 2022 period. The decreases noted above were the result of the following items:
● |
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $574 million, or 26%, as compared with the 2022 period. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales volumes in all our segments and lower average selling prices in all our segments, except for our Advanced Materials segment. See “—Segment Analysis” below. |
● |
Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $238 million, or 48%, as compared with the 2022 period. The decrease resulted primarily from lower gross profits in all our segments. See “—Segment Analysis” below. |
● | Our operating expenses, net and the operating expenses, net of Huntsman International for the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased by $6 million and $8 million, respectively, or 3% and 4%, respectively, as compared with the 2022 period, primarily related to the negative impact of translating foreign currency amounts to the U.S. dollar, partially offset by a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses. |
● |
Restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs were $8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared with $24 million in the 2022 period. For further information, see “Note 6. Restructuring, Impairment and Plant Closing Costs” to our condensed consolidated financial statements. |
● | Equity in income of investment in unconsolidated affiliates for the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased to $28 million from $19 million in the 2022 period, primarily related to an increase in income at our PO/MTBE joint venture in China, in which we hold a 49% interest. |
● | Other (expense) income, net for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $(2) million of expense as compared with $13 million of income in the 2022 period, primarily related to an increase in certain periodic pension costs. |
● |
Our income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased to $28 million from $65 million in the 2022 period. The income tax expense of Huntsman International for the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased to $28 million from $66 million in the 2022 period. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily due to the decrease in income from continuing operations before income taxes. Our income tax expense is significantly affected by the mix of income and losses in the tax jurisdictions in which we operate along with the impact of valuation allowances in certain tax jurisdictions, including a non-cash $8 million tax expense for a valuation allowance increase in our Luxembourg treasury center for the three months ended June 30, 2023. For further information, see “Note 17. Income Taxes” to our condensed consolidated financial statements. |

Polyurethanes
The decrease in revenues in our Polyurethanes segment for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period of 2022 was primarily due to lower sales volumes, lower MDI average selling prices and the negative impact of foreign currency exchange rate movements against the U.S dollar. Sales volumes decreased primarily due to lower demand, primarily in the Americas. MDI average selling prices decreased primarily due to less favorable supply and demand dynamics. The decrease in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to lower sales volumes, lower MDI margins, the negative impact of foreign currency exchange rate movements against the U.S. dollar and a gain from an insurance settlement received in the second quarter of 2022, partially offset by higher equity earnings from our minority-owned joint venture in China and cost savings achieved from our cost optimization programs.
Performance Products
The decrease in revenues in our Performance Products segment for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period of 2022 was primarily due to lower sales volumes and reduced average selling prices, partially offset by improved sales mix. Sales volumes decreased in all regions primarily due to slowing construction activity and reduced demand in coatings and adhesives, lubes and other industrial markets. The decrease in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to decreased sales volumes and lower average selling prices.
Advanced Materials
The decrease in revenues in our Advanced Materials segment for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period of 2022 was primarily due to lower sales volumes, partially offset by higher average selling prices. Sales volumes decreased primarily due to reduced customer demand in our infrastructure markets and the deselection of lower margin business. Average selling prices increased largely due to improved sales mix. The decrease in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to lower sales volumes.
Corporate and other
Corporate and other includes unallocated corporate overhead, unallocated foreign currency exchange gains and losses, LIFO inventory valuation reserve adjustments, loss on early extinguishment of debt, unallocated restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs, nonoperating income and expense and gains and losses on the disposition of corporate assets. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, adjusted EBITDA from Corporate and other for Huntsman Corporation was a loss of $38 million, which remained the same as a loss of $38 million for the same period of 2022. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, adjusted EBITDA from Corporate and other for Huntsman International was a loss of $38 million as compared to a loss of $36 million for the same period of 2022. The decrease in adjusted EBITDA from Corporate and other for Huntsman International resulted primarily from an increase in unallocated foreign currency exchange losses, partially offset by a decrease in corporate overhead costs and an increase in LIFO valuation gains.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 Compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 2022
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, income from continuing operations attributable to Huntsman Corporation was $52 million, a decrease of $368 million from $420 million in the 2022 period. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, income from continuing operations attributable to Huntsman International was $54 million, a decrease of $370 million from $424 million in the 2022 period. The decreases noted above were the result of the following items:
● |
Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $1,160 million, or 27%, as compared with the 2022 period. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales volumes in all our segments and lower average selling prices in all our segments, except for our Advanced Materials segment. See “—Segment Analysis” below. |
● |
Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $484 million, or 48%, as compared with the 2022 period. The decrease resulted primarily from lower gross profits in all our segments. See “—Segment Analysis” below. |
● | Our operating expenses, net and the operating expenses, net of Huntsman International for the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $11 million and $8 million, respectively, or 3% and 2% , respectively, as compared with the 2022 period, primarily related to a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by the negative impact of translating foreign currency amounts to the U.S. dollar. |
● |
Restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs were $1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared with $24 million in the 2022 period. For further information, see “Note 6. Restructuring, Impairment and Plant Closing Costs” to our condensed consolidated financial statements. |
● | Equity in income of investment in unconsolidated affiliates for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased to $40 million from $34 million in the 2022 period, primarily related to an increase in income at our PO/MTBE joint venture with China, in which we hold a 49% interest. |
● | Other (expense) income, net for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $(2) million of expense as compared with $11 million of income in the 2022 period, primarily related to an increase in certain periodic pension costs, partially offset by a decrease in certain legal related expenses. |
● |
Our income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased to $39 million from $125 million in the 2022 period. The income tax expense of Huntsman International for the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased to $39 million from $126 million in the 2022 period. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily due to the decrease in income from continuing operations before income taxes. Our income tax expense is significantly affected by the mix of income and losses in the tax jurisdictions in which we operate along with the impact of valuation allowances in certain tax jurisdictions, including a non-cash $3 million tax expense for a valuation allowance increase in our Luxembourg treasury center for the six months ended June 30, 2023. For further information, see “Note 17. Income Taxes” to our condensed consolidated financial statements. |

Polyurethanes
The decrease in revenues in our Polyurethanes segment for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period of 2022 was primarily due to lower sales volumes, lower MDI average selling prices and the negative impact of foreign currency exchange rate movements against the U.S. dollar. Sales volumes decreased primarily due to lower demand, primarily in Europe and the Americas. MDI average selling prices decreased primarily due to less favorable supply and demand dynamics. The decrease in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to lower sales volumes, lower MDI margins, the negative impact of foreign currency exchange rate movements against the U.S. dollar and a gain from an insurance settlement received in the second quarter of 2022, partially offset by higher equity earnings from our minority-owned joint venture in China and cost savings achieved from our cost optimization programs.
Performance Products
The decrease in revenues in our Performance Products segment for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period of 2022 was primarily due to lower sales volumes and reduced average selling prices, partially offset by improved sales mix. Sales volumes decreased in all regions primarily due to slowing construction activity, reduced demand in coatings and adhesives, lubes and other industrial markets. The decrease in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to decreased sales volumes and lower average selling prices.
Advanced Materials
The decrease in revenues in our Advanced Materials segment for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period of 2022 was primarily due to lower sales volumes, partially offset by higher average selling prices. Sales volumes decreased primarily due to reduced customer demand in our infrastructure markets and the deselection of lower margin business. Average selling prices increased largely in response to higher raw material, energy and logistics costs as well as improved sales mix. The decrease in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to lower sales volumes.
Corporate and other
Corporate and other includes unallocated corporate overhead, unallocated foreign currency exchange gains and losses, LIFO inventory valuation reserve adjustments, loss on early extinguishment of debt, unallocated restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs, nonoperating income and expense and gains and losses on the disposition of corporate assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, adjusted EBITDA from Corporate and other for Huntsman Corporation was a loss of $87 million, which remained relatively the same as a loss of $88 million for the same period of 2022. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, adjusted EBITDA from Corporate and other for Huntsman International was a loss of $85 million as compared to a loss of $83 million for the same period of 2022. The decrease in adjusted EBITDA from Corporate and other for Huntsman International resulted primarily from an increase in unallocated foreign currency exchange losses, partially offset by a decrease in corporate overhead costs and an increase in LIFO valuation gains.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The following is a discussion of our liquidity and capital resources and generally does not include separate information with respect to Huntsman International in accordance with General Instructions H(1)(a) and (b) of Form 10-Q.
Cash Flows for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 Compared with the Six Months Ended June 30, 2022
Net cash (used in) provided by operating activities from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $(82) million and $310 million, respectively. The increase in net cash used in operating activities from continuing operations during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared with the same period of 2022 was primarily attributable to decreased operating income as described in “—Results of Operations” above for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared with the same period of 2022, partially offset by a net cash inflow of $47 million related to changes in operating assets and liabilities.
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $444 million and $(120) million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we paid $97 million and $129 million for capital expenditures, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we received $541 million for the sale of businesses, net, primarily related to net proceeds of $530 million from the sale of our Textile Effects Business. See “Note 3. Discontinued Operations—Sale of Textile Effects Business” to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $464 million and $609 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we repaid $164 million against the outstanding balances under our 2022 Revolving Credit Facility and our A/R Programs. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we paid $194 million and $504 million for repurchases of our common stock, respectively.
Free cash flow from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was a use of cash of $179 million and proceeds of cash of $181 million, respectively. The decrease in free cash flow from continuing operations was primarily attributable to an increase in cash used in operating activities from continuing operations, partially offset by a decrease in cash used for capital expenditures during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared with the same period of 2022.

Total assets and liabilities held for sale as of December 31, 2022 are classified as current because we completed the sale of our Textile Effects Business on February 28, 2023. For more information see “Note 3. Discontinued Operations—Sale of Textile Effects Business” to our condensed consolidated financial statements. |
Our working capital decreased by $100 million as a result of the net impact of the following significant changes:
● |
The decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $152 million resulted from the matters identified on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. See also “—Cash Flows for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 Compared with the Six Months Ended June 30, 2022.” |
● | Other current assets decreased by $45 million primarily due to amortization of deferred charges related to insurance premiums. |
● |
Accounts payable decreased by $216 million primarily due to a decrease in non-trade payables related to insurance premiums and a reduction of capital accruals. |
● | Accrued liabilities decreased by $55 million primarily related to a decrease in accrued compensation costs and accrued restructuring costs. |
● | Current portion of debt decreased by $55 million primarily due to the repayment in full of the outstanding balance under our 2022 Revolving Credit Facility. |
Short-Term Liquidity
We depend upon our cash, our 2022 Revolving Credit Facility, A/R Programs and other debt instruments to provide liquidity for our operations and working capital needs. As of June 30, 2023, we had $1,866 million of combined cash and unused borrowing capacity, consisting of $502 million in cash, $1,187 million in availability under our 2022 Revolving Credit Facility and $177 million in availability under our A/R Programs. Our liquidity can be significantly impacted by various factors. The following matters are expected to have a significant impact on our liquidity:
● |
During 2023, we expect to spend between approximately $230 million to $250 million on capital expenditures. Our future expenditures include certain environmental, health and safety upgrades; expansions of our existing manufacturing and other facilities; certain cost reduction projects, including those described below; and certain information technology expenditures. We expect to fund capital expenditures with cash provided by operations. |
● |
During the remainder of 2023, we expect to make additional contributions to our pension and other postretirement benefit plans of approximately $19 million. |
● | During the second half of 2023, we expect to repurchase approximately $200 million of shares of our common stock. |
● | On February 28, 2023, we completed the sale of our Textile Effects Business to Archroma and received net proceeds of $530 million, determined as the preliminary purchase price of $593 million less $5 million for certain costs paid by Archroma on our behalf, $30 million of estimated net working capital adjustments and $28 million of cash that will be reimbursed to us as part of the final post-closing adjustments anticipated in 2023. Through the second quarter of 2023, we have paid cash taxes of approximately $21 million, and we expect to pay additional cash taxes of approximately $20 million. |
Long-Term Liquidity
● | During 2020, management implemented cost realignment and synergy plans. In connection with these plans, we remain committed to achieving annualized cost savings and synergy benefits of approximately $140 million during 2023, as previously communicated. During 2021, management implemented additional cost realignment plans, and in connection with these plans, we expect to achieve further annualized cost savings of approximately $100 million by the end of 2023. Associated with these plans, we expect cash costs of approximately $210 million, including approximately $30 million of capital expenditures, through 2024, of which we have spent approximately $180 million to date. |
● |
In early November 2022, we announced our commitment and specific plans to further realign our cost structure beyond the current in-progress cost optimization plans noted above with additional restructuring in Europe. This program will include exiting and consolidating certain facilities, workforce relocation to lower cost locations and further personnel rationalization. In connection with this program, we currently expect to achieve annualized cost savings of approximately $40 million by the end of 2023. Associated with this program, we expect cash costs of approximately $70 million, including approximately $23 million of capital expenditures, through 2025, of which we have spent approximately $7 million to date. |
● |
On April 29, 2022, a New Orleans jury awarded us approximately $94 million in our long-running court battle against Praxair/Linde, one of the industrial gas suppliers to our Geismar, Louisiana MDI manufacturing site. The case was filed after Praxair refused to properly maintain its own Geismar facility and then repeatedly failed to supply our requirements for industrial gas needed to manufacture MDI under long-term supply contracts that expired in 2013. After adding mandatory pre-judgment and post-judgment interest to the award, we expect damages to exceed $125 million before deducting for taxes and legal fees. The award is subject to a pending appeal, and if affirmed, we expect to receive net proceeds of approximately $50 million to $60 million. We have not yet recognized the award in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. |
● | On May 20, 2022, Huntsman International entered into the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility. Borrowings will bear interest at the rates specified in the credit agreement governing the 2022 Credit Facility, which will vary based on the type of loan and Huntsman International’s debt ratings. Under the credit agreement, the interest rate margin and the commitment fee rates are also subject to adjustments based on the Company’s performance on specified sustainability target thresholds with respect to annual percentage reduction in operational greenhouse gas emissions intensity and annual percentage reduction in water consumption intensity. Unless previously terminated in accordance with its terms, the credit agreement will mature in May 2027. Huntsman International may increase the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility commitments up to an additional $500 million, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. See “Note 7. Debt—Direct and Subsidiary Debt—Revolving Credit Facility” to our condensed consolidated financial statements. |
As of June 30, 2023, we had $11 million classified as current portion of debt, including debt at our variable interest entities of $10 million and certain other short-term facilities and scheduled amortization payments totaling $1 million. We intend to renew, repay or extend the majority of these short-term facilities in the next twelve months.
As of June 30, 2023, we had approximately $417 million of cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries, including our variable interest entities. With the exception of certain amounts that we expect to repatriate in the foreseeable future, we intend to use cash held in our foreign subsidiaries to fund our local operations. Nevertheless, we could repatriate additional cash as dividends, and the repatriation of cash as a dividend would generally not be subject to U.S. taxation. However, such repatriation may potentially be subject to limited foreign withholding taxes.
For more information regarding our debt, see “Note 7. Debt” to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risks, such as changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and commodity prices. From time to time, we enter into transactions, including transactions involving derivative instruments, to manage certain of these exposures. We also hedge our net investment in certain European operations. See “Note 8. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2023. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, in that they ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
No changes to our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). However, we can only give reasonable assurance that our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent or detect material misstatements on a timely basis.
There have been no material developments with respect to the legal proceedings referenced in Part I, Item 3 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
For information regarding risk factors, see “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
The following table provides information with respect to shares of our common stock that we repurchased as part of our share repurchase program and shares of restricted stock granted under our stock incentive plans that we withheld upon vesting to satisfy our tax withholding obligations during the three months ended June 30, 2023.

On October 26, 2021, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program of $1 billion. On March 25, 2022, our Board of Directors increased the authorization of our share repurchase program from $1 billion to $2 billion. The share repurchase program is supported by our free cash flow generation. Repurchases may be made in the open market, including through accelerated share repurchase programs, or in privately negotiated transactions, and repurchases may be commenced or suspended from time to time without prior notice. Shares of common stock acquired through the repurchase program are held in treasury at cost. During the second quarter of 2023, we repurchased 3,790,069 shares of our common stock for approximately $98 million, including commissions, under this share repurchase program. |
