Ingevity Corporation (NGVT) shares soared 21.74% on October 30th, 2024, as the company reported better-than-expected earnings for the third quarter of 2024 and provided an optimistic outlook for the full year.
The chemical company reported an adjusted earnings per share of $1.10 for the quarter ended September 30, surpassing the consensus estimate of $0.60 and marking a beat despite a 15.5% year-over-year decline in revenue to $376.9 million.
The strong performance was driven by Ingevity's strategic repositioning efforts in its Performance Chemicals segment, which involved limiting exposure to lower-margin markets in the Industrial Specialties product line. While this move led to a significant decline in Industrial Specialties sales, it paved the way for improved profitability and a focus on higher-margin opportunities.
