Dow Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter 2023 Financial Results
Dow Inc. reported a GAAP loss per share of $0.15 for the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily due to a one-time non-cash settlement charge related to pension de-risking plans. Despite the loss, the company delivered a cash flow to EBITDA conversion of 96% for 2023, enabling free cash flow of $870 million and returns to shareholders of $616 million in the quarter. Net sales for the quarter were $10.6 billion, down 10% year-over-year, reflecting declines in all operating segments. The company expects continued softness in industrial and durable goods demand in the first quarter of 2024 but is encouraged by early positive signals in other areas.
