Nine Month Highlights
* Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP measure which excludes Deferred Compensation income/ expense as well as other significant and infrequent/non-recurring items. See Table II for this non-GAAP reconciliation.
"The Company delivered reported net income of $20.4 million, a record adjusted net income in the third quarter, and record results through the first nine months of the year," said F. Quinn Stepan, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer. "Strong Polymer volumes globally, increased asset utilization and enhanced internal efficiencies continue to drive results.
"Surfactant operating income was down 5% mostly due to lower volumes in Latin America and Europe. North American surfactant operating income improved on higher volumes. Polymer income was up 10%, benefiting from global energy conservation efforts and the advantages that our technologies provide over competitive insulation materials."
