Advanced Materials & Catalysts Divestiture
On September 10, 2025, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Advanced Materials & Catalysts business to Technip Energies N.V. for a purchase price of $556,000, subject to certain adjustments including for indebtedness, cash, working capital and transaction expenses, as set forth in the definitive agreement (the “Advanced Materials & Catalysts Sale”). The Advanced Materials & Catalysts Sale is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2026, subject to regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions.
In the third quarter of 2025, the Advanced Materials & Catalysts business met the criteria set forth in ASC 205-20, as the sale represents a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. As a result, the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented reflect the Advanced Materials & Catalysts business as a discontinued operation. The Advanced Materials & Catalysts business historically represented a reportable segment of the Company.
As a result of the Advanced Materials & Catalysts business meeting held for sale criteria in the third quarter of 2025, the Company is required to measure the disposal group at the lower of its carrying values or fair values less costs to sell. As such, the Company performed an impairment analysis using a fair value estimate based on the agreed upon arm's length sales price resulting in the recognition of an impairment charge for assets classified as held for sale of $83,898 during the three months ended September 30, 2025. This impairment charge primarily consisted of a $49,636 impairment charge to goodwill along with a $34,262 valuation allowance on assets held for sale. The final fair value estimate at the completion of the sale could vary from the current fair value estimate. The Company’s estimate of fair value will be evaluated and additional impairments or recoveries of amounts previously impaired may be recognized in future periods until the divestiture is complete.
The following table summarizes the results of discontinued operations related to the Advanced Materials & Catalysts business for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively:
