: EBITDA forecast for fiscal year 2026 raised

Already today, Covestro is publishing the following preliminary financial data for the first half year 2026:

• Preliminary sales amount to EUR 6,729 million.
• Preliminary EBITDA amounts to EUR 669 million.

This development is mainly attributable to higher prices while raw material prices were increasing with a time-delay.
Consequently, for the fiscal year 2026, Covestro adjusts its EBITDA forecast. EBITDA is now expected significantly above previous year level. The previous forecast projected EBITDA around previous year level.
Unchanged, Free operating cash flow (FOCF) and ROCE over WACC each are expected significantly better than 2025 level. Unchanged as well, greenhouse gas emissions, measured via CO₂ equivalents, are expected to be between 3.9 million tons and 4.5 million tons.
The interim statement of the first half year 2026 will be published on July 31, 2026.
