Chairman and CEO Comments
Tim Knavish, PPG chairman and chief executive officer, commented on the quarter:
In the first quarter, PPG delivered organic sales growth of 1%, demonstrating our ability to maintain growth momentum in a challenging environment. We delivered higher selling prices, with further selling price realization targeted to offset any inflationary impact more quickly than prior cycles. Adjusted EPS increased 6% driven by strong results in our differentiated aerospace and architectural coatings Latin America businesses, reflecting the benefits of our technology-advantaged products and strong brand recognition, along with excellent commercial execution.
Our Global Architectural Coatings segment achieved low single-digit percentage organic sales growth and EBITDA margin improvement of 230 basis points driven by strength in Latin America. In Europe, demand remains mixed whereas in Mexico, project-related sales are recovering and retail sales were especially strong.
Performance Coatings segment organic sales grew a low single-digit percentage benefitting from strong demand for aerospace and protective and marine coatings products. Aerospace industry growth is expected to remain robust, and our order backlog positions us well to deliver consistent above-industry growth in this key end market.
In our Industrial Coatings segment, we are delivering on previously communicated share gains in automotive original equipment manufacturer (OEM) coatings and packaging coatings, which allowed us to grow above industry levels. However, margins in the first quarter were negatively impacted by regional mix as China automotive production dropped in comparison to a particularly high level in the first quarter of last year. Results for packaging coatings were outstanding as we increased both organic sales and EBITDA margin.
Looking ahead, we expect strong growth in aerospace, architectural coatings in Latin America, protective and marine coatings and packaging coatings. Automotive refinish coatings organic sales are anticipated to improve for PPG in the second half of the year related to the phasing of customer order patterns last year. We are also seeing early signs of demand improvement in the U.S. refinish market as insurance claims begin to normalize to historical levels.
In recent weeks, costs have risen for raw materials, energy, logistics and packaging across the coatings value chain. As a result, PPG has proactively announced price adjustments globally and across the portfolio. Given the scale of our differentiated portfolio, we are able to source raw materials globally, and compared to prior inflation cycles, we have an improved ability to offset inflation by increasing selling prices in step with raw material price increases.
In the second quarter, we expect both organic sales and adjusted earnings per share in the range of flat to growth of a low single-digit percentage. We are maintaining our full-year earnings per share guidance range of $7.70 to $8.10. This guidance reflects confidence in our growth momentum, including share gains and realization of pricing and execution of self-help actions, which will serve to mitigate the raw material inflation impact.
Thank you to our PPG team around the world who make it happen and deliver on our purpose every day: We protect and beautify the world®.

(a) Reconciliations of reported to adjusted figures are included below
Global Architectural Coatings segment net sales increased 13% compared to the first quarter 2025 driven by higher selling prices and a benefit from foreign currency translation partially offset by divestitures.
Organic sales for architectural coatings Latin America and Asia Pacific increased by a mid-single-digit percentage compared to the first quarter 2025 driven by growth in Latin America. Organic sales for architectural coatings EMEA declined by a low single-digit percentage year over year, with higher selling prices more than offset by lower sales volumes. In Mexico, retail sales were especially strong in the quarter. Mexican project-related sales continued to recover and the company expects further incremental improvement in the second quarter aided by higher business and governmental project investment.
Segment EBITDA increased 28% and segment EBITDA margin improved 230 basis points compared to the prior year with realization of higher selling prices and cost-control actions.

(a) Reconciliations of reported to adjusted figures are included below
Performance Coatings segment net sales increased 5% driven by higher selling prices, foreign currency translation benefit, and acquisitions, partially offset by lower sales volumes.
Organic sales improved 1% compared to the prior year driven by aerospace, protective and marine coatings, and traffic solutions, partially offset by expected year-over-year sales volume declines in automotive refinish coatings. Aerospace achieved exceptional quarterly sales with double-digit percentage organic sales growth while our order backlog remained at about $315 million. Organic sales in automotive refinish coatings decreased by a double-digit percentage as sales volumes were lower, reflecting a difficult comparison to the prior year when customer order patterns were heavily weighted to the first half of 2025. Protective and marine coatings organic sales increased by a high single-digit percentage compared to the prior year, achieving its 12th consecutive quarter of sales volume growth, including above-market marine sales volume growth in Asia Pacific. Organic sales in traffic solutions increased a high single-digit percentage driven by strong demand across the U.S. and Canada.
Compared to the first quarter 2025, segment EBITDA increased by 6% and segment EBITDA margin improved slightly, driven by higher selling prices partially offset by lower automotive refinish coatings sales volumes and higher growth-related investment spending in aerospace and protective and marine coatings.

(a) Reconciliations of reported to adjusted figures are included below
Industrial Coatings segment net sales increased 4% compared to the first quarter 2025 driven by foreign currency translation. Organic sales were flat, including sales volumes growth of 1%, reflecting the benefits from share gains offset by the impact of lower selling prices from certain index-based customer contracts.
Automotive OEM coatings organic sales decreased a low single-digit percentage, with flat sales volumes, including share gains, resulting in the business outpacing the decline in global automotive industry production by about 300 basis points. Industrial coatings organic sales declined a low single-digit percentage driven by soft demand in the United States which offset growth in other regions. Packaging coatings organic sales increased by a double-digit percentage versus the prior year period and sales volumes are up over 20 percent on a two-year stacked basis, driven by share gains, as customers adopt our leading technologies.
Segment EBITDA decreased 7% and segment EBITDA margin declined 180 basis points compared to the first quarter 2025. This was driven by regional mix and lower selling prices due to index-based contracts.
Outlook
The company expects both second quarter organic sales and adjusted earnings per share in the range of flat to growth of a low single-digit percentage. We are maintaining our full-year earnings per share guidance range of $7.70 to $8.10. This reflects the momentum of share gains and self-help actions, along with an updated view of current global economic activity, foreign exchange rates as well as regional and business mix.
Additional information related to 2026 financial projections is posted within the slides and prepared commentary associated with the first quarter earnings documents on the Investors section of PPG.com.
The term organic sales as used in this press release is defined as net sales excluding the impact of currency, acquisitions and divestitures.

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements contained herein relating to matters that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements reflecting PPG’s current view with respect to future events and financial performance. These matters within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, involve risks and uncertainties that may affect PPG’s operations, as discussed in the company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Accordingly, many factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained herein. Such factors include statements related to earnings guidance, global economic conditions, geopolitical issues, the amount of future share repurchases, increasing price and product competition by our competitors, fluctuations in cost and availability of raw materials, energy, labor and logistics, the ability to achieve selling price increases, margins, share gains, customer inventory levels, PPG inventory levels, the ability to maintain favorable supplier relationships and arrangements, the timing of realization of anticipated cost savings from restructuring and other initiatives, the ability to identify additional cost savings opportunities, the timing and expected benefits of potential future and completed acquisitions, difficulties in integrating acquired businesses and achieving expected synergies therefrom, economic and political conditions in international markets, the imposition and magnitude of tariffs, the ability to penetrate existing, developing and emerging foreign and domestic markets, foreign exchange rates and fluctuations in such rates, fluctuations in tax rates, the impact of future legislation, the impact of environmental regulations, unexpected business disruptions, global human health issues, the unpredictability of existing and possible future litigation, including asbestos litigation, and governmental investigations. However, it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, while the list of factors presented here and in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K are considered representative, no such list should be considered to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements. Consequences of material differences in results compared with those anticipated in the forward-looking statements could include, among other things, lower sales or earnings, business disruption, operational problems, financial loss, legal liability to third parties and similar risks, any of which could have a material adverse effect on PPG’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
All information in this release speaks only as of April 28, 2026, and any distribution of this release after that date is not intended and will not be construed as updating or confirming such information. PPG undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, except as otherwise required by applicable law.
Regulation G Reconciliation
PPG believes investors’ understanding of the company’s performance is enhanced by the disclosure of net income, earnings per diluted share from continuing operations, PPG’s effective tax rate adjusted for certain items, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, and segment EBITDA. PPG’s management considers this information useful in providing insight into the company’s ongoing performance because it excludes the impact of items that cannot reasonably be expected to recur on a quarterly basis or that are not attributable to our primary operations. Net income, earnings per diluted share from continuing operations and the effective tax rate adjusted for these items, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, and segment EBITDA are not recognized financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and should not be considered a substitute for net income, earnings per diluted share, the effective tax rate, segment income or other financial measures as computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per diluted share, the adjusted effective tax rate, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and segment EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures as reported by other companies. PPG is not able to provide a reconciliation of second quarter 2026 or full-year 2026 expected adjusted earnings per diluted share to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure without unreasonable effort because certain items that impact such measure are uncertain or cannot be reasonably predicted at this time.

Tim Knavish, PPG chairman and chief executive officer, commented on the quarter and year:
In the fourth quarter, we accelerated our growth momentum by delivering 3% growth in organic sales, our highest performance in any quarter this year, with contributions from sales volume and selling prices, and all regions delivering sales volume growth.
Results for our Global Architectural Coatings segment improved sequentially each quarter of 2025, with organic sales growth of 2% in the fourth quarter as project-related sales in Mexico recovered sequentially and retail sales were strong. Overall demand in Europe remained mixed.
Performance Coatings segment organic sales grew 3% in the quarter as strong results in aerospace coatings and protective and marine coatings were partially offset by lower automotive refinish coatings demand, reflecting customer order patterns that were weighted toward the first half of the year. Fourth quarter pricing improved 4% year over year as a result of strong demand for our technology-advantaged products and services.
Industrial Coatings segment organic sales grew 4% year over year due to share gains. This was evident as we outpaced industry production in automotive original equipment manufacturer (OEM) coatings, industrial coatings, and especially in packaging coatings where we delivered double-digit volume growth in the quarter.
For the full year, we consistently delivered higher sales volumes and selling prices resulting in 2% organic sales growth. This strong performance was led by double-digit percentage growth in aerospace coatings and protective and marine coatings, and high single-digit percentage growth in packaging coatings. Additionally, our Performance Coatings segment delivered record sales and earnings.
In 2025, the company's decisive actions to reduce global structural costs have yielded benefits of $75 million, and we expect incremental restructuring savings of $50 million in 2026 as we execute our European manufacturing consolidation and other structural cost reductions.
Fourth quarter adjusted EPS was $1.51, and full-year 2025 adjusted EPS was $7.58. During the quarter, we repurchased approximately $100 million of stock and $790 million for the full year, which represented approximately 3% of our outstanding shares. Combined with our dividend, we returned $1.4 billion to our shareholders in 2025. We generated $1.9 billion in operating cash flow during 2025 and ended the year with $2.2 billion of cash and short-term investments, which provides us with ongoing financial flexibility to create increased value for shareholders.
Looking ahead, I am encouraged by our organic growth momentum and what we will achieve in 2026. We anticipate that demand in Europe and in global industrial end-use markets will remain challenged. Despite the macroeconomic environment, we expect growth will be driven by aerospace coatings and architectural coatings in Mexico as well as share gains in our Industrial Coatings segment, resulting in organic sales growth in the flat to a positive low single-digit percentage range and earnings per share growth of a mid-single-digit percentage for the year. This reflects the strength of our focused organization and our sharpened portfolio of technology-advantaged products and services.
The meaningful progress we made this year would not be possible without the dedication of our employees. Thank you to our PPG team around the world who make it happen and deliver on our purpose every day: We protect and beautify the world®.

Global Architectural Coatings segment net sales increased 8% compared to the fourth quarter 2024, driven by higher selling prices and favorable foreign currency translation. This was partially offset by the divestiture of our architectural coatings business in Russia. Sales volume growth in Mexico was offset by declines in Europe.
Organic sales for architectural coatings Latin America and Asia Pacific increased by a high single-digit percentage compared to the prior-year fourth quarter driven by growth in Latin America. Organic sales for architectural coatings EMEA declined by a low single-digit percentage year over year, with higher selling prices more than offset by lower sales volumes. In Mexico, retail sales were strong in the quarter, and project-related sales continued to recover sequentially versus previous quarters this year. The company expects incremental improvements in the Mexican business and governmental project investment in the first quarter 2026.
Segment EBITDA increased by 14% versus the prior year, and segment EBITDA margin increased 90 basis points year over year primarily due to higher selling prices, favorable foreign currency translation driven by the Mexican peso, and cost-control actions partially offset by inflation.

Organic sales improved 3% led by growth in aerospace coatings and protective and marine coatings. Aerospace coatings achieved record fourth quarter sales with double-digit percentage organic sales growth, while our order backlog increased to approximately $315 million despite higher year-over-year output. Organic sales in automotive refinish coatings decreased by a high single-digit percentage as sales volumes were lower, reflecting customer order patterns stemming from distributors weighting their purchases to the first half of 2025. Protective and marine coatings organic sales increased by a double-digit percentage compared to the prior year and achieved its 11th consecutive quarter of sales volume growth, including above-market marine sales volume growth in Asia Pacific. Traffic solutions organic sales declined a low single-digit percentage year over year in a seasonally slow quarter.
Segment EBITDA decreased by 4% versus the prior year, and segment EBITDA margin declined 200 basis points year over year to 21.1%, driven by lower automotive refinish coatings sales volumes and higher growth-related investment spending in aerospace coatings and protective and marine coatings partially offset by higher selling prices and improved manufacturing productivity.

Industrial Coatings segment net sales increased 3% compared to the fourth quarter 2024. Sales volumes improved 5%, reflecting the benefits from share gains. The impact of lower selling prices from certain index-based customer contracts was more than offset by favorable foreign currency translation. The divestiture of the silicas products business in late 2024 impacted the year-over-year sales comparison by 3%.
Automotive OEM coatings net sales increased 6% due to above-market sales volume growth as we outpaced the global automotive industry for the second consecutive quarter. Industrial coatings organic sales were flat as sales volume growth in Europe and the Asia-Pacific region offset lower indexed-based pricing. Packaging coatings organic sales increased by a double-digit percentage year over year, driven by technology-advantaged share gains.
Segment EBITDA increased 6%, and segment EBITDA margin improved by 30 basis points compared to the fourth quarter 2024 driven by higher sales volumes and improved productivity, partially offset by lower selling prices due to index-based contracts and the absence of earnings due to the divestiture of the silicas products business.

Full-year 2025 net sales were $15.9 billion, flat versus the prior year, with a 1% increase in sales volumes, a 1% increase in selling prices, and favorable foreign currency translation of 1%, while divestitures reduced net sales by 3%.
In a challenging macro environment, the company delivered adjusted EPS of $7.58, supported by sales of our technology-advantaged products and strong brands, as we delivered record results in several of our businesses, including aerospace coatings, protective and marine coatings, and packaging coatings.
In 2025, the company paid approximately $630 million in dividends. The company repurchased $790 million of stock in 2025 and ended the year with $2 billion remaining on its current share repurchase authorization. Capital expenditures totaled about $780 million.
Outlook
The company anticipates that adjusted earnings per share for the full-year 2026 will be in the range of $7.70 to $8.10, which at the mid-point represents EPS growth of a mid-single-digit percentage. This range is based on current global economic activity and foreign exchange rates, ongoing soft global industrial production, and mixed demand across the various regions where we operate. The company anticipates organic sales to be in the range of flat to low single-digit percentage growth for the full year. EPS growth is expected to be weighted toward the second half of 2026, with the first half of the year flat to low single-digit percentage growth and increasing to high single-digit percentage growth in the second half of the year.
Additional information related to 2026 financial projections is posted within the slides and prepared commentary associated with the fourth quarter earnings documents on the Investors section of PPG.com.
The term organic sales as used in this press release is defined as net sales excluding the impact of currency, acquisitions and divestitures.

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements contained herein relating to matters that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements reflecting PPG’s current view with respect to future events and financial performance. These matters within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, involve risks and uncertainties that may affect PPG’s operations, as discussed in the company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Accordingly, many factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained herein. Such factors include statements related to earnings guidance, global economic conditions, geopolitical issues, the amount of future share repurchases, increasing price and product competition by our competitors, fluctuations in cost and availability of raw materials, energy, labor and logistics, the ability to achieve selling price increases, margins, share gains, customer inventory levels, PPG inventory levels, the ability to maintain favorable supplier relationships and arrangements, the timing of realization of anticipated cost savings from restructuring and other initiatives, the ability to identify additional cost savings opportunities, the timing and expected benefits of potential future and completed acquisitions, difficulties in integrating acquired businesses and achieving expected synergies therefrom, economic and political conditions in international markets, the imposition and magnitude of tariffs, the ability to penetrate existing, developing and emerging foreign and domestic markets, foreign exchange rates and fluctuations in such rates, fluctuations in tax rates, the impact of future legislation, the impact of environmental regulations, unexpected business disruptions, global human health issues, the unpredictability of existing and possible future litigation, including asbestos litigation, and governmental investigations. However, it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, while the list of factors presented here and in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K are considered representative, no such list should be considered to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements. Consequences of material differences in results compared with those anticipated in the forward-looking statements could include, among other things, lower sales or earnings, business disruption, operational problems, financial loss, legal liability to third parties and similar risks, any of which could have a material adverse effect on PPG’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
All information in this release speaks only as of January 27, 2026, and any distribution of this release after that date is not intended and will not be construed as updating or confirming such information. PPG undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, except as otherwise required by applicable law.
Regulation G Reconciliation
PPG believes investors’ understanding of the company’s performance is enhanced by the disclosure of net income, earnings per diluted share from continuing operations, PPG’s effective tax rate adjusted for certain items, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, and segment EBITDA. PPG’s management considers this information useful in providing insight into the company’s ongoing performance because it excludes the impact of items that cannot reasonably be expected to recur on a quarterly basis or that are not attributable to our primary operations. Net income, earnings per diluted share from continuing operations and the effective tax rate adjusted for these items, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, and segment EBITDA are not recognized financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and should not be considered a substitute for net income, earnings per diluted share, the effective tax rate, segment income or other financial measures as computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per diluted share, the adjusted effective tax rate, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and segment EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures as reported by other companies. PPG is not able to provide a reconciliation of full-year 2026 expected adjusted earnings per diluted share to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure without unreasonable effort because certain items that impact such measure are uncertain or cannot be reasonably predicted at this time.
