Tailwinds
- Harsco Environmental adjusted EBITDA is projected to be modestly above 2022 results.
- Higher services pricing, restructuring benefits, site improvement initiatives and new contracts are expected to be partially offset by FX translation impacts and lower commodity prices.
- Clean Earth adjusted EBITDA is expected to significantly increase versus 2022, as a result of higher services pricing as well as cost reduction and operational improvement actions, offsetting the impacts of continued labor-market and supply-chain (disposal) tightness.
- Corporate spending is anticipated to be higher relative to the prior year due to the normalization of certain expenditures, including travel and higher planned incentive compensation.
- Harsco Free Cash Flow is now projected to be within a range of $25 million to $45 million for the year.
