What the filing says
LSB Industries reported Q2 2026 net sales of $168.1M (vs. $151.3M in Q2 2025, +11%), but recorded a net loss of $6.2M due to $28.8M in planned facility turnaround expenses at El Dorado (ammonia) and Pryor plants. Adjusted EBITDA improved to $53.1M from $38.3M YoY. The company closed a deal to assume full ownership of its El Dorado carbon capture & sequestration (CCS) project from Lapis Carbon Solutions, expecting $25–$30M annual earnings when operational in Q1 2027, capturing 400,000–500,000 metric tons CO₂/year and generating $85/ton federal tax credits (IRC §45Q). Cash position: $218.0M; total debt: $441.3M.
Why this rating
Turnaround costs depress near-term earnings but are non-cash investments; CCS project is material (5–7% of market cap annually if fully realized), strategic decarbonization, and tax-credit-driven. Sales & adjusted EBITDA growth indicate operational strength and market demand. Moderate relative to $417M market cap.
