Briefing
Quaker Chemical Corporation reported a net loss for the second quarter of 2025 driven by a non-cash goodwill impairment charge in EMEA.
The company posted net sales of $483.4 million, up 4% year-over-year, but recorded a net loss of $66.6 million after an $88.8 million impairment. Operating results were pressured by higher raw material costs and restructuring charges despite acquisition contributions and volume growth in Asia/Pacific.
- Net sales rose 4% to $483.4 million, supported by acquisitions and Asia/Pacific volume growth, offset by softer pricing and end-market conditions.
- Reported a $66.6 million net loss after a non-cash $88.8 million goodwill impairment in the EMEA segment.
- Gross margin declined to 35.5% from 37.9% due to higher raw material and manufacturing costs plus acquisition inventory step-up.
- Operating cash flow for the first half was $38.5 million, down from $73.5 million, reflecting lower earnings and higher restructuring payments.
