Albemarle Reports Second Quarter 2026 Results

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – August 5, 2026 - Albemarle Corporation (NYSE: ALB), a global leader in providing essential elements for mobility, energy, connectivity and health, today announced its results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Second Quarter 2026 and Recent Highlights

(Unless otherwise stated, all percentage changes represent year-over-year comparisons and do not exclude the prior-period results of Ketjen’s refining catalyst solutions business in which the company sold a 51% stake on March 2, 2026)

•Net sales of $1.7 billion, up 31% due to higher pricing in Energy Storage (+73%) and higher pricing and volumes in Specialties (price +11%, volume +8%).

•Net income of $480 million, or $3.52 per diluted share attributable to common shareholders.

•Adjusted EBITDA(a) of $858 million; up 155% due primarily to higher pricing in Energy Storage, increased pricing and volumes in Specialties and ongoing cost and productivity improvements. Adjusted EBITDA expanded in both Energy Storage (+229%) and Specialties (+61%).

•Cash from operating activities of $710 million and free cash flow of $638 million(a). Operating cash flow conversion of 83%(a), primarily driven by timing of an increased dividend from the Talison joint venture and non-recurring working capital benefits.

•Delivered $100 million in year-to-date run-rate cost and productivity improvements, tracking towards the high end of our full-year target of $100 to $150 million.

•Improving full-year 2026 outlook considerations including:

◦Increasing full-year Specialties net sales outlook to $1.4 to $1.6 billion and adjusted EBITDA outlook to $275 to $325 million, due to stronger-than-expected pricing and volume performance year to date.

◦Expect minimal impact to Energy Storage sales volume related to the fire at Talison CGP3 which occurred on June 9, in part due to better-than-planned output from the Wodgina mine.

◦Reducing full-year capital expenditure forecast to approximately $500 million due to ongoing capital efficiency improvements.

(a)    See Non-GAAP Reconciliations for further details.

“Albemarle delivered another quarter of strong results, reflecting improved pricing, continued strength in Specialties, disciplined cost and productivity execution, and strong cash generation,” said Kent Masters, Chairman and CEO. “We continue to see resilient demand fundamentals across our core markets, including energy storage, electric vehicles, and semiconductors. We are advancing our highest value organic growth opportunities while maintaining a disciplined approach to capital allocation and execution.”

Net sales for the second quarter of 2026 were $1.7 billion compared to $1.3 billion for the prior-year quarter, up 31%, driven primarily by higher prices in both Energy Storage and Specialties and volume growth in Specialties. Adjusted EBITDA of $858 million increased by $522 million from the prior-year quarter, primarily due to higher net sales and ongoing cost and productivity improvements.

Net income attributable to Albemarle of $480 million increased year over year by $457 million. The effective income tax rate for the second quarter of 2026 was 21.3% or 19.1% on an adjusted basis.

(a) Includes aggregated salts and spodumene sales on a lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) basis.

Energy Storage net sales for the second quarter of 2026 were $1.3 billion, an increase of $559 million, or 78%, due to higher pricing. Adjusted EBITDA of $723 million increased $504 million, or 229%, primarily due to higher lithium pricing partially offset by higher CORFO commissions.

Specialties Results

Net Sales $ 423.5  $ 351.6  $ 71.9  20.5  %

Adjusted EBITDA $ 117.7  $ 73.0  $ 44.7  61.3  %

Specialties net sales for the second quarter of 2026 were $423 million, an increase of $72 million, or 20%, primarily due to higher volumes (+8%) and pricing (+11%). Adjusted EBITDA of $118 million increased $45 million, or 61%, primarily due to higher volumes and favorable pricing in bromine and derivatives, along with continued productivity improvements and proactive management of cost escalations driven by the conflict in the Middle East.

2026 Outlook Considerations

Total Corporate Outlook Considerations

The table below reflects expected outcomes for the total company based on recently observed lithium market price scenarios. Outlook ranges for each scenario are based on variation in sales volume and product mix. Energy Storage production volumes are expected to increase year over year. Sales volumes are expected to be in the range of 225 to 235 kilotons lithium carbonate equivalent, as increased Wodgina volumes partially offset a delay in the Talison CGP3 ramp due to a fire that occurred on June 9. All three scenarios assume flat market pricing flowing through Energy Storage’s current contract book which includes approximately 40% of salts volume (or one-third of total volumes) on long-term agreements. Scenarios also assume that spodumene pricing averages 10% of the lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) price, while other costs are assumed to be constant.

Total Corporate FY 2026E

Observed market price case(a)

FY 2025 avg. Q1 2026 avg. 2021-2025 avg.

Average lithium market price ($/kg LCE)(a)

Net sales $4.1 - $4.3 billion $5.7 - $6.0 billion $7.5 - $7.8 billion

Adjusted EBITDA(b)

$0.9 - $1.0 billion $2.4 - $2.6 billion $4.2 - $4.4 billion

(a)    Price represents blend of relevant market pricing including spot and regional indices for the periods referenced.

(b)    The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP, as the company is unable to estimate significant non-recurring or unusual items without unreasonable effort. See “Additional Information Regarding Non-GAAP Measures” for more information.

(a)    Price represents blend of relevant market pricing including spot and regional indices for the periods referenced.

(b)    Included in adjusted EBITDA on a pre-tax basis.

Specialties Outlook Considerations

Specialties net sales and adjusted EBITDA outlook is improved primarily due to strong year to date performance driven by volume growth in bromine specialties and cost and productivity improvements. Our outlook continues to reflect modest volume growth in key end markets led by semiconductors, oil and gas, flame retardants and pharmaceuticals partially offset by expected softness in automotive and petrochemicals. Second-half outlook assumes stabilization in the bromine market and continued uncertainties including the situation in the Middle East. Operations at the Jordan Bromine Company (JBC) joint venture are in line with expectations as it continues to navigate geopolitical tensions in the region.

Segment FY 2026E

Specialties net sales $1.4 - $1.6 billion

Specialties adjusted EBITDA $275 - $325 million

Other Corporate Outlook Considerations

Albemarle expects its full-year 2026 capital expenditures to be approximately $500 million, down 15% compared to 2025 due to ongoing capital efficiency improvements.

Following the sale of a controlling stake in Ketjen’s refining catalyst solutions business, announced on March 2, 2026, the refining catalyst business earnings are now classified as equity income and included in Corporate, as are the results of the retained Performance Catalyst Solutions (PCS) business. The adjusted EBITDA and equity income contributions from these are expected to be immaterial post transaction.

Interest and financing expense is expected to be between $120 and $140 million for 2026 following the debt reduction actions completed in the first quarter of 2026.

Other Corporate FY 2026E

Capital expenditures ~$500 million

Depreciation and amortization $660 - $680 million

Adjusted effective tax rate(a)

(50)% - 30%

Corporate adjusted EBITDA (incl. FX, Ketjen equity income & PCS) ($20) - $20 million

Interest and financing expenses $120 - $140 million

Weighted-average common shares outstanding (diluted)(b)

~136 million

(a)    Adjusted effective tax rate dependent on lithium market prices and geographic income mix

(b)    Diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding amount assumes the conversion of preferred stock and the net income attributable to common shareholders will not be reduced by mandatory convertible preferred stock dividends. If the reduction of mandatory convertible preferred stock dividends results in a more dilutive earnings per share, the diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding will not assume conversion of the preferred stock.

Cash Flow and Capital Deployment

Cash from operations of $1.1 billion in the first half of 2026 increased $518 million compared to the prior-year period. Capital expenditures of $170 million in the first six months of 2026 decreased by $132 million versus the prior-year period.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

As of June 30, 2026, Albemarle had estimated liquidity of approximately $3.2 billion, including $1.6 billion of cash and cash equivalents, $1.5 billion available under our revolver and $78 million available under other credit lines. Total debt was $1.9 billion, representing a net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio (as defined in our credit agreement) of approximately 0.5(a).

Additional Information Regarding Non-GAAP Measures

It should be noted that adjusted net income attributable to Albemarle Corporation, adjusted net income (loss) attributable to Albemarle Corporation common shareholders, adjusted diluted income (loss) per share attributable to common shareholders, non-operating pension and other post-employment benefit (“OPEB”) items per diluted share, non-recurring and other unusual items per diluted share, adjusted effective income tax rates, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA (on a consolidated basis), EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA margin, operating cash flow conversion and net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio are financial measures that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as alternatives to Net income attributable to Albemarle Corporation (“earnings”) or other comparable measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP. These measures are presented here to provide additional useful measurements to review the company’s operations, provide transparency to investors and enable period-to-period comparability of financial performance. The company’s chief operating decision maker uses these measures to assess the ongoing performance of the company and its segments, as well as for business and enterprise planning purposes.

A description of other non-GAAP financial measures that Albemarle uses to evaluate its operations and financial performance, and reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP can be found on the following pages of this press release, which is also is available on Albemarle’s website at https://investors.albemarle.com. The company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP, as the company is unable to estimate significant non-recurring or unusual items without unreasonable effort. The amounts and timing of these items are uncertain and could be material to the company's results calculated in accordance with GAAP.

(a) Calculation of adjusted diluted income (loss) per share attributable to common shareholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 excludes $41.7 million and $83.4 million, respectively, of mandatory convertible preferred stock dividends and includes the assumed conversion of preferred stock into the diluted shares outstanding, as this results in the more dilutive per share result.

Non-operating pension and OPEB items, consisting of mark-to-market actuarial gains/losses, settlements/curtailments, interest cost and expected return on assets, are not allocated to Albemarle’s operating segments and are included in the Corporate and all other category. In addition, the company believes that these components of pension cost are mainly driven by market performance, and the company manages these separately from the operational performance of the company’s businesses. In accordance with GAAP, these non-operating pension and OPEB items are included in Other income (expenses), net. Non-operating pension and OPEB items were as follows (in thousands):

(1)In 2026, the Company announced it would place Kemerton Train 1 into care and maintenance. As a result, and in addition to other previously announced restructuring actions, the Company recorded charges of $7.3 million and $33.2 million in Restructuring charges and asset write-offs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively. Due to the impact of valuation allowances, this resulted in total after-tax charges of $7.5 million and $33.3 million, or $0.05 and $0.24 per share, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively. The three and six months ended June 30, 2025 included certain restructuring costs and adjustments to previously recorded costs related to restructuring actions originally entered into in 2024. As a result, the Company recorded charges of $4.4 million and $3.4 million in Restructuring charges and asset write-offs and gains (losses) of $0.1 million and ($0.1) million in Other income (expenses), net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. Due to the impact of valuation allowances, this resulted in total after-tax gains of $2.9 million and $0.8 million, or $0.02 and $0.01 per share, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.

(2)Costs related to the acquisition, integration and divestitures for various significant projects, recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were $0.8 million and $1.9 million ($0.01 and $0.01 per share, with no income tax effect due to the impact of valuation allowances), respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were $1.8 million and $3.2 million ($1.4 million and $2.5 million after income taxes, or $0.01 and $0.02 per share), respectively.

(3)During the first quarter of 2026, the Company divested its controlling ownership interest in its Refining Solutions business and its full 50% ownership interest in the Eurecat joint venture. As a result of these transactions, the Company recorded a net loss of $52.7 million ($0.39 per share, with no income tax effect due to the impact of valuation allowances), representing the proceeds received less the carrying value as of the transaction dates.

(4)During the first quarter of 2026, the Company completed a $1.3 billion debt tender and redemption, resulting in a gain on early extinguishment of debt of $12.5 million ($0.09 per share, with no income tax effect due to the impact of valuation allowances), representing the repurchase of this debt at a discount, partially offset by tender premiums and redemption fees.

11

(5)Gains resulting from the net change in fair value of investments in public equity securities, recorded in Other income (expenses), net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 of $6.5 million and $1.0 million ($0.05 and $0.01 per share, with no income tax effect due to the impact of valuation allowances), respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 gains (losses) of $0.2 million and ($4.8) million ($0.1 million and ($3.8 million) after income taxes, or less than $0.01 and $0.03 per share), respectively.

Other adjustments for the six months ended June 30, 2025 included amounts recorded in:

•Selling, general and administrative expenses - $11.4 million of gains from the sale of assets not part of our production operations, partially offset by $1.8 million of severance expenses not related to a restructuring plan and $0.6 million of expenses related to certain historical legal matters.

•Other income (expenses), net - $38.0 million loss resulting from the redemption of preferred equity in a Grace subsidiary and $1.9 million of charges for asset retirement obligations at a site not part of our operations, partially offset by $19.8 million of income from PIK dividends of the preferred equity in a Grace subsidiary prior to redemption and a $1.9 million gain primarily resulting from the adjustment of indemnification related to previously disposed businesses.

After income taxes, these net losses totaled $5.4 million, or $0.05 per share.

(7)Included in Income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 are discrete net tax expenses of $6.0 million and $10.6 million, or $0.04 and $0.08 per share, respectively, primarily related to the impact of foreign tax reserves and foreign return to provisions.
