Presentation

Our unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our wholly owned or controlled subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The information furnished reflects all normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. Operating results for the period ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the twelve months ended December 31, 2026.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X for interim financial statements required to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 25, 2026 (the “2025 Annual Report”).
Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclose contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, and
impairments during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences could be material.
Mineral Resources Arrangement
Mineral Resources Arrangement

We are pursuing low-carbon energy initiatives that leverage our fluids core chemistry competencies and our significant mineral resources, including our brine leases in Southwest Arkansas. In June 2023, we entered into a memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) with Saltwerx LLC (“Saltwerx”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of ExxonMobil Corporation, relating to the Evergreen Unit, and potential bromine and lithium production from brine produced from the unit. The memorandum of understanding includes an allocation of certain costs for the drilling of a brine production test well and other development operations, including front-end engineering and design studies for bromine and lithium production facilities.
Capitalized Interest
Capitalized Interest

We capitalize interest on significant expenditures for assets that require more than twelve months to prepare for their intended use. Capitalized interest is calculated based on our weighted average borrowing rate applied to accumulated expenditures on qualifying assets, including amortization of deferred financing costs and discounts. Interest capitalization ceases when the asset is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalized interest is included in the carrying amount of the related assets and will be amortized over their respective useful lives once the assets are placed into service.
Foreign Currency Translation
Foreign Currency Translation
We have designated the Euro, the British pound, the Canadian dollar, the Brazilian real as the functional currencies for our operations in Finland and Sweden, the United Kingdom, Canada and Brazil, respectively. The United States dollar is the designated functional currency for most of our other non-U.S. operations. The cumulative translation effects of translating the applicable accounts from the functional currencies into the United States dollar at current exchange rates are included as a separate component of equity.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Measurements

We utilize fair value measurements to account for certain items and account balances within our consolidated financial statements. Fair value measurements are utilized on a recurring basis in the determination of the carrying values of certain investments. See Note 7 - “Fair Value Measurements” for further discussion. Fair value measurements are also utilized on a nonrecurring basis in certain circumstances, including the impairment of long-lived assets (a Level 3 fair value measurement).
