The Flavors & Extracts Group reported third quarter 2025 revenue of $203.0 million, a decrease of $0.3 million versus the prior year’s third
quarter. The Group’s revenue was unfavorably impacted by lower volumes in agricultural ingredients (formerly natural ingredients). This decline was partially offset by higher prices and volumes in our flavors, extracts, and flavor ingredients
product lines. Segment operating income was $28.0 million in the third quarter of 2025, an increase of $2.2 million compared to the prior year’s third quarter. The increase in segment operating income was driven by strong profitability of the
flavors, extracts, and flavor ingredients product lines despite the decline in the revenue of agricultural ingredients.
The Color Group reported revenue of $178.2 million in the third quarter of 2025, an increase of $16.1 million compared to the prior year’s third
quarter. The Group’s revenue increase was driven by higher prices and strong volume growth in the food and pharmaceutical product lines. Segment operating income was $37.7 million in the third quarter of 2025, an increase of $7.9 million compared to
the prior year’s third quarter results.

The Asia Pacific Group reported revenue of $42.1 million in the third quarter of 2025, an increase of $0.3 million compared to the prior year’s third
quarter. Segment operating income was $9.5 million in the quarter, an increase of $0.2 million compared to the prior year’s third quarter.
Corporate & Other reported operating expenses of $17.6 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $14.5 million of operating expenses
reported in the prior year’s third quarter. The higher operating expenses were primarily due to higher Portfolio Optimization Plan costs in the quarter. Local currency adjusted operating expenses(1) for Corporate & Other increased $1.0
million compared to the prior year’s third quarter, primarily due to higher performance-based compensation costs recorded in 2025.

(4) Adjustments include cash and cash equivalents, as described in the Company's Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (Credit
Agreement), and certain letters of credit and hedge contracts.
(5) Adjustments consist of certain financing transaction costs, certain non-financing interest items, and gains and losses related to
certain non-cash, non-operating, and/or non-recurring items as described in the Credit Agreement.
We have included each of these non-GAAP measures in order to provide additional information regarding our underlying operating results and comparable
period-over-period performance. Such information is supplemental to information presented in accordance with GAAP and is not intended to represent a presentation in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in
isolation. Rather, they should be considered together with GAAP measures and the rest of the information included in this release and our SEC filings. Management internally reviews each of these non-GAAP measures to evaluate performance on a
comparative period-to-period basis and to gain additional insight into underlying operating and performance trends, and we believe the information can be beneficial to investors for the same purposes. These non-GAAP measures may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
