As a specialty formulator, we don’t
require significant capital
investment, as compared to the
base resin raw material suppliers
we purchase from.
Our free cash flow supports
shareholder value creation through
investing in R&D for organic growth,
completing bolt-on acquisitions, and
returning cash to shareholders via our
dividend program and opportunistic
share repurchases.
