While LyondellBasell has made progress on safety and cash improvements, the company faces significant challenges due to a prolonged downturn in market conditions, leading to deferred investments and asset sales. Positive steps include strong shareholder returns and operational improvements, but these are countered by broader market pressures.

In the second quarter of 2025, LyondellBasell reported earnings of $0.62 per share and an EBITDA of $715 million, reflecting a sequential improvement due to reduced downtime and lower feedstock costs.

The company generated over $500 million in cash returns to shareholders, including dividends and share repurchases. The O&P Americas segment saw a 25% EBITDA improvement to $318 million, driven by higher polyethylene margins, while the Intermediates & Derivatives segment increased EBITDA by $79 million to $290 million.
