Earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) in the segment were $149 million, up around 22% from the year-ago quarter. The rise in EBIT was primarily driven by greater unit margins resulting from higher pricing and product mix in 2024 customer agreements, as well as higher volumes in Asia and Europe.Sales in the Performance Chemicals unit went down around 4.6% year over year to $311 million, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $319 million in the reported quarter. EBIT increased around 10.7% to $31 million. The improvement in EBIT was primarily driven by increasing volumes. Higher volumes were mostly due to growth in the specialty carbons and specialty compounds product lines.\nFinancials\nCabot ended the second quarter of fiscal 2024 with cash and cash equivalents of $206 million. During the quarter, cash flows from operating activities were $176 million.Capital expenditures totaled $43 million.
