Q3 2025
During the Westlake Chemical Partners Second Quarter 2025 Earnings Conference Call, the company reported a net income of $15 million or $0.41 per unit, with consolidated net income, including OpCo's earnings, amounting to $86 million. The distributable cash flow was $15 million or $0.43 per unit, a decrease of $2 million from the previous year due to higher maintenance expenditures. A quarterly distribution of $0.4714 per unit was announced, marking the 44th consecutive quarterly distribution since their 2014 IPO, with a growth of 71% in distributions since then.
