$ 0.88 N/A N/A

Adjusted EBITDA1,2

$ 290 $ 283 2%

Adjusted EBITDA Margin1,2

25.3% 27.4% (218) bps

Net Sales in the second quarter of 2026 were $1,148 million, an 11% increase compared to the second quarter of 2025, reflecting a 12% increase in Net Sales in the Refrigerants & Applied Solutions segment and an 8% increase in Net Sales in the Electronic & Specialty Materials segment. Organic Net Sales1 increased by 11% in the second quarter of 2026 driven by both volume growth and favorable pricing.

Net Income attributable to Solstice Advanced Materials in the second quarter of 2026 was $119 million, compared to Net Income attributable to Solstice Advanced Materials of $97 million in the second quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily driven by higher Net Sales and lower income taxes partially offset by higher standalone company operating costs and net interest expense.

Adjusted EBITDA1,2 for the second quarter of 2026 was $290 million, a 2% increase compared to the second quarter of 2025. Adjusted EBITDA Margin1,2 for the second quarter of 2026 decreased 218 basis points to 25.3%. Adjusted EBITDA Margin1,2 was impacted by timing of plant turnaround activity and production incentive credits in the prior year, partially offset by volume growth and favorable pricing.

Financial Position

Operating Cash Flow for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $461 million. Capital Expenditures3 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were $186 million, a 35% increase compared to the prior-year period due to planned increases in capital spending intended to drive long-term growth. Free Cash Flow1 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $248 million.

As of June 30, 2026, the Company’s Total Long-Term Debt was $2.0 billion and Cash and Cash Equivalents were approximately $750 million. As a result, the Company’s Net Leverage ratio was approximately 1.3x based on a trailing twelve-month Adjusted EBITDA1. Total liquidity was approximately $1.75 billion, including Cash and Cash Equivalents and $1.0 billion of availability through the Company’s revolving credit facility.

Capital Deployment

The Company announced on July 17, 2026, that the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.075 per share of common stock outstanding, payable on September 10, 2026, to shareowners of record as of August 27, 2026.

Announced acquisition of Element Solutions

On July 6, 2026, Solstice announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Element Solutions in a cash-and-stock transaction. The transaction is subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions and is expected to close in the first half of 2027.

Corporate Expenses

Corporate Expenses totaled $54 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to $46 million in the second quarter of 2025 due to incremental ongoing costs necessary to operate as an independent public company. There were no standalone cost adjustments in the second quarter of 2026, compared to $21 million in the second quarter of 2025, which was prior to the separation from Honeywell on October 30, 2025.

Income Tax Expense

Income Tax Expense was $42 million in the second quarter of 2026, a decrease of $59 million compared to the second quarter of 2025 as a result of nondeductible transaction costs and discrete tax adjustments related to the Spin-off from Honeywell in the prior-year period. Effective tax rates were 24% and 51% for the second quarters of 2026 and 2025, respectively.

"Our strong first-half performance gives us confidence to raise our full-year outlook, even against an uncertain macroeconomic backdrop," said David Sewell, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We remain focused on disciplined execution across our current business and on completing our acquisition of Element Solutions."

The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) or Adjusted diluted Earnings per Share to GAAP net income (loss) attributable to Solstice Advanced Materials, due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. Because deductions (such as repositioning charges, transaction costs, impairment charges, and litigation and other matters) used to calculate projected net income (loss) vary based on actual events, the Company is not able to forecast on a GAAP basis with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide a GAAP calculation of projected net income (loss) at this time. The amount of these deductions may be material and, therefore, could result in projected GAAP net income (loss) being materially less than projected Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) or Adjusted Net Income attributable to Solstice (non-GAAP). These statements represent forward-looking information and a projected financial outlook, and actual results may vary. Please see the risks and assumptions referred to in the “Forward-Looking Statements” section of this news release. The guidance in this news release is only effective as of the date it is given and will not be updated or affirmed unless and until the Company publicly announces updated or affirmed guidance.

1 This is a non-GAAP measure or a non-GAAP ratio. For further information on non-GAAP measures and non-GAAP ratios, please refer to the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of this news release. Please also refer to tables at the end of this news release for a reconciliation of historical non-

GAAP measures and ratios to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

2 The three months ended June 30, 2025 represents Adjusted Standalone EBITDA (non-GAAP) and Adjusted Standalone EBITDA Margin (non-

GAAP).

Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed on any forward-looking statement made by us or on our behalf. Although we believe that the forward-looking statements contained in this news release are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that a variety of factors, many of which are difficult to predict and outside of our control, could affect our actual financial results or results of operations and could cause actual results to differ materially from those in such forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to: risks and uncertainties around the Company’s proposed acquisition of Element Solutions, including the risk that the anticipated benefits and synergies of the transaction may not be realized when expected or at all, that the terms and scope of the expected financing in connection with the transaction may prove to be less favorable than currently expected, that the transaction may not be completed in a timely matter or at all, the risk that disruptions from the proposed acquisition will harm our business, including current plans and operations, and the risk of litigation related to the transaction; our limited operating history as an independent, publicly traded company and unreliability of historical consolidated financial information as an indicator of our future results; our ability to successfully develop new technologies and introduce new products; an overall decline in the health of the economy and the industries in which we operate, including as a result of inflation, tariffs and other trade barriers and restrictions, market volatility, geopolitical instability and social unrest, the possibility of an economic downturn or recession or other macroeconomic factors; changes in the price and availability of raw materials that we use to produce our products, including due to factors such as supply chain disruptions, including due to increased energy prices, and the impact of inflation; our ability to comply with complex government regulations and the impact of changes in such regulations;

global climate change and related regulations and changes in customer demand; the public and political perceptions of nuclear energy and radioactive materials; economic, political, regulatory, foreign exchange and other risks of international operations; the impact of tariffs or other restrictions on foreign imports; our ability to borrow funds and access capital markets and any limitations in the terms of our indebtedness; our ability to compete successfully in the markets in which we operate; the effect on our revenue and cash flow from seasonal fluctuations and cyclical market conditions; concentrations of our credit, counterparty and market risk; our ability to successfully execute or effectively integrate potential acquisitions, including the proposed acquisition of Element Solutions, or complete potential divestitures; our joint ventures and strategic co-development partnerships; our ability to recruit and retain qualified personnel; potential material environmental liabilities; the hazardous nature of chemical manufacturing; decommissioning and remediation expenses and regulatory requirements; potential material litigation matters, including disputes related to the spin off (“the Spin-off”) from Honeywell International Inc. (“Honeywell”); the impact of potential cybersecurity attacks, data privacy breaches and other operational disruptions; increasing stakeholder interest in public company performance, disclosure, and goal-setting with respect to sustainability matters; failure to maintain, protect and enforce our intellectual property or to be successful in litigation related to our intellectual property or the intellectual property of others, or competitors developing similar or superior intellectual property or technology; unforeseen U.S. federal income tax and foreign tax liabilities and our ability to achieve anticipated tax treatments in connection with the Spin-off; U.S. federal income tax reform; our ability to operate as an independent, publicly traded company without certain benefits available to us as a part of Honeywell prior to the Spin-off, including managing the costs of operating as an independent company following the Spin-off; our ability to achieve some or all of the benefits that we expect to achieve from the Spin-off; our inability to maintain intellectual property agreements; potential timing, declaration, amount and payment of the Company’s dividend program; potential cash contributions to defined benefit pension plans; and our ability to maintain proper and effective internal controls.

These and other factors are more fully discussed in the “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on February 19, 2026, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and other documents we may file from time to time with the SEC.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures to supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These include (1) Organic sales percentage, (2) Adjusted EBITDA, (3) Adjusted EBITDA Margin, (4) Adjusted Standalone EBITDA, (5) Adjusted Standalone EBITDA margin, (6) Adjusted Net Income attributable to Solstice, (7) Adjusted diluted EPS, (8) Free cash flow, (9) Net debt, (10) Total leverage ratio, and (11) Net leverage ratio.

Below are definitions and reconciliations of certain non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management believes that, when considered together with reported amounts, these measures are useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in the analysis of ongoing operating trends. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with a meaningful measure of its performance period to period, align the measures to how management evaluates performance internally, and make it easier for investors to compare our performance to peers. These measures should be considered in addition to, and not as replacements for, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure. The non-GAAP financial measures we use are as follows:

•Organic sales percentage: The Company defines organic sales percentage as the year-over-year change in reported sales relative to the comparable period, excluding the impact on sales from foreign currency translation and acquisitions, net of divestitures, for the first 12 months following the transaction date. We believe this measure is useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends.

•Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Standalone EBITDA, and Adjusted Standalone EBITDA margin: The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income excluding income taxes, depreciation, amortization, interest and other financial charges, remeasurement of foreign currencies, stock-based compensation expense, nonoperating pension expense (income), transaction-related costs, repositioning charges, asset retirement obligations accretion, asset impairment charges, litigation costs and insurance settlements (net of recoveries), gains and losses on disposal of assets, and certain other items that are otherwise of an unusual or non-recurring nature. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Net sales. The Company defines Adjusted Standalone EBITDA as Adjusted EBITDA less, for fiscal year 2025, estimated recurring and ongoing costs required to operate a new independent public company, and autonomous entity adjustments as well as adjustments for certain other employee compensation expense for employees that have historically been shared with other Honeywell businesses and were transferred to the Company in connection with the spin-off. The Company defines Adjusted Standalone EBITDA Margin as Adjusted Standalone EBITDA divided by Net sales. We believe these measures are useful to investors as they provide greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making, as well as understanding ongoing operating trends.

•Adjusted net income attributable to Solstice and Adjusted diluted EPS: The Company defines Adjusted net income attributable to Solstice as Net income attributable to Solstice Advanced Materials excluding the after-tax impact - based on the tax rates by jurisdiction, net of discrete items - of amortization of acquired intangibles, remeasurement of foreign currencies, nonoperating pension expense (income), transaction-related costs, repositioning charges, asset retirement obligations accretion, asset impairment charges, litigation costs and insurance settlements (net of recoveries), gains and losses on disposal of assets, and certain other items that are otherwise of an unusual or non-recurring nature. We believe Adjusted net income attributable to Solstice is useful to investors as it provides greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making, as well as in understanding ongoing operational trends. The Company defines Adjusted diluted EPS as Adjusted net income attributable to Solstice divided by diluted weighted average shares outstanding to reflect shares that are dilutive or anti-dilutive based on the amount of Adjusted net income attributable to Solstice. The weighted average common shares outstanding used to calculate Adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share will differ from such shares used to calculate diluted earnings (loss) per share (GAAP) when the inclusion of dilutive shares has an anti-dilutive effect for one calculation but not for the other. We believe Adjusted diluted EPS is useful to

investors as it provides greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making, as well as in understanding ongoing operational trends.

•Free cash flow: The Company defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less net capital expenditures. Net capital expenditures include capital expenditures paid less proceeds from the disposals of property, plant, and equipment. We believe this measure is useful to investors and management as a measure of cash generated by operations that can be used to invest in future growth through new business development activities or acquisitions, pay dividends, repurchase stock, or repay debt obligations prior to their maturities. This measure can also be used to evaluate our ability to generate cash flow from operations and the impact that this cash flow has on our liquidity.

•Net debt, total leverage ratio and net leverage ratio: The Company defines net debt as total debt less cash. The Company defines total leverage ratio as total debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA. The Company defines net leverage ratio as net debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA. For purposes of showing total leverage ratio and net leverage ratio, we use Adjusted Standalone EBITDA instead of Adjusted EBITDA. We believe these measures are useful to investors and management in understanding our overall financial condition.
