This declaration marks the 460th consecutive dividend issued by the company or its affiliates since 1912. The payout underscores the firm's ongoing capital return strategy despite a complex global landscape, which includes navigating fluctuating raw material prices and geopolitical volatility in the Middle East and Eastern Europe.

Headquartered in Midland, Michigan, the company continues to focus on its core markets, including infrastructure and packaging, following a 2025 fiscal year that saw sales reach approximately $40 billion. The board’s decision to maintain the dividend comes as the firm balances long-term investments in carbon neutrality initiatives with the operational challenges of managing a manufacturing network that spans 29 countries.
