AI Insight: EMN Ratio Trends
Eastman's profitability metrics collapsed through 2025, with operating margin falling from 12.2% (Q2 2024) to 0.6% (Q4 2025), signaling severe operational distress.
• Operating margin cratered from 12.2% in Q2 2024 to 0.6% in Q4 2025, lowest on record. ROIC declined 10.4pp over same span.
• TTM ROIC stands at 4.0% versus 10.8% in Q2 2024—a 68% decline in capital efficiency. ROE halved to 6.6% TTM from 16.4% two years prior.
• Leverage held steady; D/E improved slightly to 0.80 in Q4 2025 from 0.89 in mid-2024, but weak profitability undermines debt serviceability.
⚠ Q4 2025 operating margin of 0.6% represents near-breakeven operations. Recovery trajectory unclear; Q1 2026 modest rebound to 6.2% insufficient.
⚠ Net profit margin volatile: peaked 14.7% in Q4 2024, then deteriorated to 2.1% in Q3 2025. Current 4.9% TTM suggests ongoing margin pressure.
