Commenting on the second quarter results, Patrick S. Williams, President and Chief Executive Officer, said,
“This was another good overall quarter for Innospec. Sales grew and gross margins expanded on the prior year as strong results in Oilfield Services continued to partially offset weaker results in Performance Chemicals.
In Performance Chemicals, as expected, destocking and the ongoing sale of higher cost inventories negatively impacted volumes, mix and margins in the quarter. Despite our expectation that destocking and higher cost inventory headwinds will continue into the second half of 2023, we believe our new Personal Care contracts which began in the third quarter will support sequential improvement in operating income and margins. We do not anticipate any change in our customers’ long-term objectives to move to cleaner, higher performance chemistry, and we believe that our technology portfolio is well placed for growth in this transition.
In Fuel Specialties, further price action and slowing inflation offset the impact of lower volumes. The results this quarter were negatively impacted by an
In Oilfield Services, strength in production chemicals and further sequential improvements in our other segments drove excellent results in the quarter. In the third quarter, we anticipate that sequential operating income will moderate, but we expect to remain on track for significant full year growth in 2023. We plan to continue pursuing topline and margin expansion opportunities across all oilfield segments.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The information presented in this press release includes financial measures that are not calculated or presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (GAAP). These non-GAAP financial measures comprise EBITDA, income before income taxes excluding special items, net income excluding special items and related per share amounts together with net cash. EBITDA is net income per our consolidated financial statements adjusted for the exclusion of charges for interest expense, net, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Income before income taxes, net income and diluted EPS, excluding special items, per our consolidated financial statements are adjusted for the exclusion of amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition related costs, foreign currency exchange (gains)/losses, legacy costs of closed operations and adjustment of income tax provisions. Net cash is cash and cash equivalents less total debt. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are provided herein and in the schedules below. The Company believes that such non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and may assist them in evaluating the Company’s underlying performance and identifying operating trends. In addition, these non-GAAP measures address questions the Company routinely receives from analysts and investors and the Company has determined that it is appropriate to make this data available to all investors. While the Company believes that such measures are useful in evaluating the Company’s performance, investors should not consider them to be a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Also, these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies and do not provide a comparable view of the Company’s performance relative to other companies in similar industries. Management uses adjusted EPS (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for which is GAAP EPS) and adjusted net income and EBITDA (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for which is GAAP net income) to allocate resources and evaluate the performance of the Company’s operations. Management believes the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is GAAP net income and has provided a reconciliation of EBITDA and net income excluding special items, and related per share amounts, to GAAP net income herein and in the schedules below.
