PPG Industries — Jan 30, 2025 release

We anticipate a slow start to 2025 as demand in Europe and in global industrial end-use markets remains challenged. Despite the macroeconomic environment, we expect to deliver organic sales growth of a low single-digit percentage for the year, with first quarter organic growth flat to slightly down and stronger results in the second half of the year driven by share gains. As we announced in October, we are taking decisive actions to reduce costs, including global structural costs and European manufacturing consolidations. Our balance sheet remains strong, which continues to provide us with financial flexibility, and we remain committed to driving shareholder value creation. Thus, we are deploying about $400 million toward share repurchases during the first quarter of 2025. The successful divestitures and solid performance this year would not be possible without the dedication of our employees. We are now a much more focused organization dedicated to driving sustainable organic growth. 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®.
