Varun Gokarn
Vice President of Strategy & Integration

Good morning, and thank you for joining us today for our 2026 Virtual Investor Day. My name is Varun Gokarn, and I'm the Vice President of Strategy and Integration here at Element Solutions. We're looking forward to sharing today's presentation with you. You will hear from several of our leaders providing a fulsome update on our business, the ways in which our portfolio has evolved and the exciting opportunities that we are working on, all driven by a deep focus on solving our customers' most critical challenges.

Before we begin, I would like to bring your attention to Slide 2 of this presentation, which notes that we will be discussing certain forward-looking statements. These statements represent management's assumptions and expectations with respect to future events, but numerous risks and uncertainties may cause actual results to differ from those predicted.

Additionally, we will present certain non-GAAP financial measures. The definitions and reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP can be found
