Improving

While the consolidation of Heubach led to temporary margin volatility and high leverage, the Q4 recovery in profitability and the sharp QoQ revenue growth suggest the integration is beginning to yield scale benefits.

The company expects to leverage its position as the world's 3rd largest pigment manufacturer to gain market share in the 85+ countries it serves, though high finance costs and depreciation from recent acquisitions will continue to weigh on net margins in the near term.
