Huntsman announced a new quarterly dividend of $0.0875 per share, payable December 31, 2025, to shareholders of record as of December 15, 2025. The board’s decision marks a 75% reduction from the $0.35 dividend set in the third‑quarter earnings release, reflecting the company’s priority on strengthening its balance sheet amid a prolonged market downturn.
The dividend cut aligns with Huntsman’s broader cost‑reduction program, which has already delivered over $280 million in savings since 2022. By preserving cash, the company aims to maintain liquidity of $1.287 billion and support ongoing restructuring initiatives, including the $50 million polyurethanes cost‑cutting plan slated for completion in 2026.
While the payout reduction signals a cautious stance, it also underscores Huntsman’s commitment to shareholder value once the company’s financial position improves. Investors will watch the company’s cash flow generation and margin recovery in the coming quarters to gauge when a dividend increase may be feasible.
