- Confirmed Outlook 2024 and medium-term targets
"Clariant delivered a good start to the year in the first quarter of 2024 demonstrating the resilience of our specialty chemicals portfolio. The improved profitability was driven by our performance programs and successful margin management in the deflationary environment. Our topline performance reflected stabilized volumes and lower pricing against a strong comparison base last year. Sequentially, we saw limited restocking activities from customers, although uncertainties about underlying demand remain. The lower sunliquid® impact and strong margin in our aviation business positively contributed to profitability. We are on track to deliver on our 2024 guidance and remain committed toward our medium-term targets," said Conrad Keijzer, Chief Executive Officer of Clariant.
