Briefing

Air Products reported Q1 2025 earnings with a slight increase in EPS and adjusted EPS, driven by higher pricing and favorable business mix, but offset by increased costs and lower volumes due to divestiture.

Air Products reported a mixed first quarter for fiscal year 2025. GAAP EPS increased by one percent to $2.77, and adjusted EPS also rose by one percent to $2.86. Net income saw a five percent increase, reaching $650 million. Sales, however, decreased by two percent to $2.9 billion, influenced by lower volumes due to the LNG business divestiture and unfavorable currency exchange, although higher pricing partially offset these declines.

  • GAAP EPS increased by one percent to $2.77; net income increased by five percent to $650 million.
  • Adjusted EPS increased by one percent to $2.86; adjusted EBITDA increased by one percent to $1.2 billion.
  • Sales decreased by two percent to $2.9 billion due to lower volumes, including the impact of the LNG divestiture.
