Q2 FY26 earnings call · Aug 6, 2026TL;DR. Orion's Q2 2026 adjusted EBITDA rose 26% sequentially to $58 million, driven by a 96% year-over-year surge in Specialty segment EBITDA, while Rubber segment EBITDA fell 61% year-over-year on lower 2026 contract pricing. The company reaffirmed its full-year adjusted EBITDA guidance of $170–$210 million and raised its full-year free cash flow outlook by $43 million at the midpoint to slightly positive, supported by working capital initiatives that more than offset a ~$60 million oil-driven feedstock headwind.
- + Full-year free cash flow guidance was raised by $43 million at the midpoint to a range of negative $10 million to positive $20 million.
- + Working capital initiatives delivered a $4 million cash source in Q2, more than offsetting an estimated $60 million oil-driven feedstock headwind from oil averaging about 29% higher sequentially.
- − Rubber segment adjusted EBITDA fell 61% year-over-year to $19 million due to lower 2026 contract pricing, unfavorable customer mix and an inventory draw absorption impact.
- − Tire production rates remain below historical norms in key regions, and local tire production is constrained by elevated imports and residual surplus channel inventories.

Capital returns
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.
