The Chemours Company (ISIN US1638511089) was trading at EUR 12.31 at Lang & Schwarz on September 30, 2026 at 9:28 a.m. CEST, up 0.49 percent versus the prior close of EUR 12.25. The latest investor presentation shows stronger cash generation alongside a substantial GAAP loss.

Cash flow improves in Q2

According to StockTitan, Chemours reported USD 1.59 billion in Q2 2026 net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, alongside USD 247 million in adjusted EBITDA and a USD 274 million net loss.

The cash figures tell a different part of the story. Free cash flow reached USD 114 million in Q2 2026, up 128 percent from USD 50 million in Q2 2025, while operating cash flow rose to USD 158 million from USD 93 million.

Revenue missed consensus

The improvement in cash conversion came while adjusted EBITDA fell from USD 260 million in Q2 2025 to USD 247 million. Adjusted EPS was USD 0.42, below the USD 0.49 consensus, and revenue of USD 1.59 billion came in below the USD 1.65 billion estimate, according to MarketBeat.

Leverage remains the central counterweight to the cash flow improvement. Chemours reported Q2 net leverage of 4.4 times adjusted EBITDA, while its long-term objective is below 3.0 times.

Analysts see a higher target

MarketBeat lists a consensus Hold rating and an average price target of USD 20.10. The same overview cites targets ranging from USD 17.00 at Goldman Sachs to USD 24.00 at Truist Financial, underscoring the gap between improved liquidity and continued earnings pressure.
