Useful current figures from the complete screener profile.
* Q4 derived as the full year minus Q1 to Q3.
TL;DR. Performance Chemicals improved, Battery Materials reached a new EBITDA high, Cabot secured a $50 million grant, and management guided to fiscal 2027 Adjusted EPS of $6.15 to $6.75. Fourth-quarter revenue and net income increased, while fiscal earnings and operating cash flow declined, Reinforcement Materials profitability weakened, restructuring charges increased, and volatile input costs and competitive pressures remain risks to margins.

Dividends per share over the trailing 365 days by ex-date · buyback figures as last reported in SEC filings ("spent" derived as authorized − remaining; when several programs run concurrently, authorized is their combined total per the newest filing) · components shown separately — trailing-year buyback spend isn't tracked, so no combined shareholder yield is derived.
