US Stock IR Daily – June 30, 2026 (3 reports)

• On June 26, 2026, Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. decided to exit projects to develop a clean energy complex in Louisiana, a green hydrogen facility in Arizona (the “Casa Grande Project”), and other smaller scale projects supporting clean energy distribution.
• As a result of these decisions, the Company expects to record a pre-tax charge of up to $2.9 billion, or $2.2 billion on an after-tax basis, in its fiscal 2026 third quarter.
• This charge is primarily related to writing down assets and terminating contractual commitments.
• Cash expenditures related to these charges are currently estimated not to exceed $925 million based on contractual terms and commitments.
• The decision to exit the Louisiana Clean Energy Complex was made after a detailed review determined that expected financial returns would not meet the Company’s return criteria.
• The exits from the Casa Grande Project and other smaller scale projects were driven by challenging commercial conditions, project-specific economic factors, and slower than expected development in certain markets, largely hydrogen for mobility.

Air Products & Chemicals’ decision to exit several clean energy projects and record a significant pre-tax charge of up to $2.9 billion could impact the company’s near-term financial results. This move may highlight challenges related to the commercial viability and market development speed of large-scale green hydrogen and clean energy initiatives. Investors may monitor how this strategic shift affects the company’s future capital allocation and its overall clean energy strategy, potentially signaling a more cautious approach to project development in certain emerging markets.
