Cologne
Specialty chemicals company LANXESS confirms its earnings forecast for the current fiscal year and expects earnings to remain stable compared with the previous year. The company expects EBITDA pre exceptionals to be between EUR 1.000 billion and EUR 1.050 billion in 2019. In the previous year, the specialty chemicals company had achieved a result of EUR 1.016 billion.

“Thanks to our successful realignment, LANXESS is now much more stable than just a few years ago.
