Stepan Company's Q3 2026 net sales rose 17% year-over-year to $692.2 million, with net income of $17.8 million ($0.78 diluted EPS) up from $10.8 million ($0.47) a year ago. Adjusted diluted EPS of $0.94 nearly doubled, and adjusted EBITDA rose 18% to $66.3 million on pricing actions, Project Catalyst savings, and 7% organic volume growth. The first nine months still show a $0.7 million net loss versus $41.9 million of net income in 2025, driven by $76.1 million of pre-tax restructuring charges under Project Catalyst, including site shutdowns in Fieldsboro, NJ and asset decommissioning at Millsdale, IL and Stalybridge, UK.
