Huntsman Corporation (HUN) stock soared 6.15% in intraday trading on Tuesday, outperforming the broader market. This surge followed the company's CEO, Peter Huntsman, highlighting plans for aggressive margin expansion during the company's fourth-quarter earnings call.
In his remarks, CEO Peter Huntsman emphasized Huntsman's commitment to "aggressively push for margin expansion" throughout 2025. This strategic focus on improving profitability appears to have resonated positively with investors, driving the stock higher.
However, Huntsman's fourth-quarter results fell short of Wall Street expectations, with the company reporting an adjusted loss of $0.25 per share, missing the consensus estimate of a $0.12 loss. Despite the disappointing earnings, the market seems to have responded favorably to the CEO's reassurance about the company's future margin growth initiatives.
