Forward-looking statements, 10-Q filed Jul 29, 2026
- PPG’s management considers this information useful in providing insight into the Company’s ongoing performance because it excludes the impact of items that cannot reasonably be expected to recur on a quarterly basis or that are not attributable to our primary operations.
- In the third quarter of 2026, the company expects further year-over-year strengthening in retail sales and a modest recovery of project-related spending in Mexico.
- While consumer sentiment in Europe is anticipated to remain mixed, we expect higher prices and self-help actions to increase earnings.
- We anticipate continued strength in aerospace.
- Protective and marine coatings growth is expected to normalize as we lap prior year share gains, and traffic solutions will follow typical seasonal trends.
- In the third quarter, the company expects organic sales growth for the segment in the range of a mid-single-digit percentage to a high single-digit percentage year over year.
- Our share gains in automotive OEM coatings, industrial coatings and packaging coatings are yielding benefits, and we expect to outperform the respective markets again in the third quarter.
- In the third quarter, the company expects organic sales for the segment in the range of flat to growth of a low single-digit percentage year over year.
- The Company continues to monitor overall economic demand and customer order patterns and is prepared to take actions intended to mitigate adverse impacts, as necessary, through supply chain contingency plans, pricing actions, and/or cost reduction actions.
- In the second quarter, this selling price improvement offset approximately 90% of the cost of goods sold inflation, and we currently anticipate that 100% of cost of goods sold inflation will be offset by higher selling prices and productivity initiatives by the fourth quarter.
- We expect cash outlays related to restructuring actions of approximately $80 million to $100 million in 2026.
- Management anticipates that the resolution of the Company’s environmental contingencies will occur over an extended period of time.
