  • Q2 EBITDA expected to be lower than Q1 due to Middle East conflict impacting fine fragrance demand, inflation starting to hit, and pricing surcharges not yet fully implemented.
  • Divestiture of commodity soy business to Bungie closed in March; sale process for food ingredients is advanced with an update expected by Q2 call.

A1

Q2 2026 EBITDA is guided to be lower than the $568 million reported in Q1, driven by a temporary slowdown in Middle East fine fragrance volume and customer supply chain challenges (e.g., packaging)

Доказательства
“We anticipate that fine fragrance volume in the Middle East will be impacted in the second quarter due to slower market demands, but also temporary supply chain challenges our customers are facing, such as getting packaging into the region.”
A2

IFF is facing double-digit increases in energy and logistics costs immediately, before raw material inflation hits, prompting it to implement pricing surcharges with customers.

Доказательства
“We're seeing energy and logistic charges rising, and we haven't really fully implemented our surcharges in place yet, and that will happen over the course of the quarter.”
A3

IFF is explicitly de-emphasizing its 'commodity' fragrance ingredients business (roughly half of its ~$500M annual ingredient sales) due to intense price competition from Indian and Chinese producers.

Доказательства
“On the commodity side, that's the part that's very, very challenged and challenged by Indian producers, Chinese producers, and it's an area that we need to continue to have competitive costs for our internal formulation use but we're de-em…”
A4

IFF's food ingredients business sale process is advanced with multiple buyers in second-round due diligence; an update is expected by the Q2 earnings call.

Доказательства
“We are running a very disciplined process and it's going very well with several potential buyers going through second round of due diligence and the feedback has been very positive so far.”
