This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is a combined report being filed by Dow Inc. and The Dow Chemical Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (“TDCC” and together with Dow Inc., “Dow” or the "Company") due to the parent/subsidiary relationship between Dow Inc. and TDCC. The information reflected in the report is equally applicable to both Dow Inc. and TDCC, except where otherwise noted. Each of Dow Inc. and TDCC is filing information in this report on its own behalf and neither company makes any representation to the information relating to the other company.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements in this report are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements often address expected future business and financial performance, financial condition, and other matters, and often contain words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” "could," “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “opportunity,” “outlook,” “plan,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “strategy,” “target,” “will,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” “would” and similar expressions, and variations or negatives of these words or phrases.

Forward-looking statements are based on current assumptions and expectations of future events that are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that are beyond Dow’s control, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements and speak only as of the date the statements were made. These factors include, but are not limited to: sales of Dow’s products; Dow’s expenses, future revenues and profitability; any supply chain, operational or other disruptions, sanctions, export restrictions, or increased economic uncertainty related to the ongoing conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East; capital requirements and need for and availability of financing; unexpected barriers in the development of technology, including with respect to Dow's contemplated capital and operating projects; Dow's ability to realize its commitment to carbon neutrality on the contemplated timeframe, including the completion and success of its integrated ethylene cracker and derivatives facility in Alberta, Canada; size of the markets for Dow’s products and services and ability to compete in such markets; Dow's ability to develop and market new products and optimally manage product life cycles; the rate and degree of market acceptance of Dow’s products; significant litigation and environmental matters and related contingencies and unexpected expenses; the success of competing technologies that are or may become available; the ability to protect Dow’s intellectual property in the United States and abroad; Dow's ability to realize expected benefits from Transform to Outperform on the contemplated timeframe; developments related to contemplated restructuring activities and proposed divestitures or acquisitions such as workforce reduction, manufacturing facility and/or asset closure and related exit and disposal activities, and the benefits and costs associated with each of the foregoing; fluctuations in energy and raw material prices; management of process safety and product stewardship; changes in relationships with Dow’s significant customers and suppliers; changes in public sentiment and political leadership; increased concerns about plastics in the environment and lack of a circular economy for plastics at scale; changes in consumer preferences and demand; changes in laws and regulations, political conditions, tariffs and trade policies, or industry development; global economic and capital markets conditions, such as inflation, market uncertainty, interest and currency exchange rates, and equity and commodity prices; business, logistics and supply disruptions; security threats, such as acts of sabotage, terrorism or war, including the ongoing conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East; weather events and natural disasters; disruptions in Dow’s information technology networks and systems, including the impact of cyberattacks; risks related to Dow’s separation from DowDuPont Inc. such as Dow’s obligation to indemnify DuPont de Nemours, Inc. and/or Corteva, Inc. for certain liabilities; and any global and regional economic impacts of a pandemic or other public health-related risks and events on Dow’s business.

Where, in any forward-looking statement, an expectation or belief as to future results or events is expressed, such expectation or belief is based on the current plans and expectations of management and expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis, but there can be no assurance that the expectation or belief will result or be achieved or accomplished. A detailed discussion of principal risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results and events to differ materially from such forward-looking statements is included in the section titled “Risk Factors” contained in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. These are not the only risks and uncertainties that Dow faces. There may be other risks and uncertainties that Dow is unable to identify at this time or that Dow does not currently expect to have a material impact on its business. If any of those risks or uncertainties develops into an actual event, it could have a material adverse effect on Dow’s business. Dow Inc. and TDCC assume no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements whether because of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by securities and other applicable laws.

NOTE 1 – CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Basis of Presentation

Dow Inc. is the direct parent company of The Dow Chemical Company and its consolidated subsidiaries ("TDCC" and together with Dow Inc., "Dow" or the "Company"). The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Dow Inc. and TDCC were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and reflect all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) which, in the opinion of management, are considered necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. These statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 ("2025 10-K").

As a result of the parent/subsidiary relationship between Dow Inc. and TDCC, and considering that the financial statements and disclosures of each company are substantially similar, the companies are filing a combined report for this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The information reflected in the report is equally applicable to both Dow Inc. and TDCC, except where otherwise noted. Transactions between TDCC and Dow Inc. are treated as related party transactions for TDCC.

Except as otherwise indicated by the context, the term "Union Carbide" means Union Carbide Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Additionally, the term "Diamond Infrastructure Solutions" means Dow InfraCo, LLC, an entity that owns and operates infrastructure assets at certain Dow locations on the U.S. Gulf Coast and became a consolidated variable interest entity on May 1, 2025. See Note 20 for additional information about Diamond Infrastructure Solutions.

NOTE 2 – RECENT ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE

Accounting Guidance Issued But Not Adopted at September 30, 2026

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2024-03, "Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses," which is intended to improve disclosures about a public business entity's expenses and address requests from investors for more detailed information about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions. Such information should allow investors to better understand an entity's performance, assess future cash flows, and compare performance over time and with other entities. The amendments will require public business entities to disclose in the notes to the financial statements, at each interim and annual reporting period, specific information about certain costs and expenses, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization included in each expense caption presented on the face of the income statement, and the total amount of an entity's selling expenses. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. While the adoption of ASU 2024-03 will result in enhanced disclosures, the Company does not expect it will have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software," which is intended to modernize the accounting for the costs of internal-use software given the evolution of software development to the incremental and iterative development method. The amendments remove all references to prescriptive and sequential development stages and, instead, require an entity to start capitalizing software costs when management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period with the amendments to be applied using a prospective, modified or retrospective transition approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, "Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities," which is intended to establish authoritative guidance on the accounting for government grants received by business entities and reduce diversity in practice. The amendments establish the timing and methods of recognition of both (1) a grant related to an asset and (2) a grant related to income. The amendments also require certain disclosures including the nature of the grant received, the accounting policies used to account for the grant, and significant terms and conditions for the grant. The amendments are effective for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2028, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period with the amendments to be applied using a modified prospective, modified retrospective or retrospective transition approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

In May 2026, the FASB issued ASU 2026-02, "Environmental Credits and Environmental Credit Obligations (Topic 818)," which is intended to improve the accounting for and disclosure of environmental credits and related obligations and reduce diversity in practice. The amendments establish recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure requirements for environmental credits and environmental credit obligations arising from regulatory compliance programs. Environmental credits are recognized as assets when it is probable they will be used to settle an obligation, transferred in an exchange transaction, or used in a nonreciprocal transfer, and are subsequently measured based on their intended use. Environmental credit obligations are recognized as liabilities as qualifying events occur and are measured based on the carrying amount of related credits held and the amount required to settle any shortfall. The amendments are effective for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period with the amendments to be applied on a retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 – REVENUE

Revenue Recognition

The majority of the Company's revenue is derived from product sales. The Company's revenue related to product sales was 98 percent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 (98 percent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025). The remaining sales were primarily related to the Company's insurance operations and licensing of patents and technologies. Product sales consist of sales of the Company's products to manufacturers and distributors. The Company considers order confirmations or purchase orders, which in some cases are governed by master supply agreements, to be contracts with a customer. The Company enters into licensing arrangements in which it licenses certain rights of its patents and technology to customers. Revenue from the Company’s licenses for patents and technology is derived from sales-based royalties and licensing arrangements based on billing schedules established in each contract.

Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations. At September 30, 2026, the Company had unfulfilled performance obligations of $618 million ($617 million at December 31, 2025) related to the licensing of technology. The Company expects revenue to be recognized for the remaining performance obligations over the next six years.

The Company has additional remaining performance obligations for product sales that have expected durations of one year or less, product sales of materials delivered through a pipeline for which the Company has elected the "right to invoice" practical expedient, and variable consideration attributable to royalties for licenses of patents and technology. The Company has received advance payments from customers related to long-term supply agreements that are deferred and recognized over the life of the contract, with remaining contract terms that range up to 18 years. The Company will have rights to future consideration for revenue recognized when product is delivered to the customer. These payments are included in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company disaggregates its revenue from contracts with customers by operating segment and business, as the Company believes it best depicts the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of its revenue and cash flows. See details in the tables below:

Contract Assets and Liabilities

The Company receives payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules. Accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. Contract assets include amounts related to the Company's contractual right to consideration for completed performance obligations not yet invoiced. Contract liabilities include payments received in advance of performance under the contract and are recognized in revenue when the performance obligations are met. "Contract liabilities - current" primarily reflects deferred revenue from prepayments from customers for product to be delivered in 12 months or less and royalty payments that are deferred and will be recognized in 12 months or less. "Contract liabilities - noncurrent" includes advance payments that the Company has received from customers related to long-term supply agreements and royalty payments that are deferred and recognized over the life of the contract.

Revenue recognized in the first nine months of 2026 from amounts included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the period was approximately $170 million (approximately $170 million in the first nine months of 2025). In the first nine months of 2026 and 2025, the amount of contract assets reclassified to receivables as a result of the right to the transaction consideration becoming unconditional was insignificant.

The following table summarizes contract assets and liabilities at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025:

NOTE 4 – RESTRUCTURING AND ASSET RELATED CHARGES - NET

Charges for restructuring programs and other asset related charges, which include asset impairments, are recorded in "Restructuring and asset related charges - net" in the consolidated statements of income. For additional information on the Company's restructuring programs and other asset related charges, see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2025 10-K.

Transform to Outperform

On January 26, 2026, the Dow Inc. Board of Directors ("Board") approved Transform to Outperform, a comprehensive set of actions designed to improve near-term Operating EBITDA by simplifying the Company's operating model, reducing its cost structure and delivering faster growth. The actions, which include a workforce reduction of approximately 4,500 roles, are expected to be substantially complete by the end of 2027. As a result, in the first, second and third quarters of 2026, the Company recorded pretax charges of $27 million, $445 million and $9 million, respectively, for severance and related benefit costs, included in "Restructuring and asset related charges - net" in the consolidated statements of income, related to Corporate.

The Company has recorded pretax inception-to-date charges of $481 million for severance and related benefit costs associated with Transform to Outperform and has made related payments of $214 million.

At September 30, 2026, $255 million of the reserve balance was included in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and $12 million was included in "Other noncurrent obligations" in the consolidated balance sheets.

2025 Restructuring Program

On January 27, 2025, the Board approved targeted actions to further achieve the Company's cost reduction initiatives in response to ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty, while reinforcing its long-term competitiveness across the economic cycle. These actions, which included a workforce reduction of approximately 1,500 roles, were substantially complete at June 30, 2026.

On June 30, 2025, the Board approved restructuring actions to rationalize the Company's global asset footprint, including certain actions identified as part of the Company's previously announced strategic review of its European assets and certain corporate and other assets, and to enhance the Company's competitiveness over the economic cycle. The program includes asset write-down and write-off charges, severance and related benefit costs and other exit and disposal costs. The actions related to the shutdown of these assets are expected to be substantially

In 2026, the Company repaid its existing drawdown of $197 million, which was included in “Purchases of investments” in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

Supplier Finance Program

The Company facilitates a supply chain financing (“SCF”) program in the ordinary course of business in order to extend payment terms with vendors. Under the terms of this program, a vendor can voluntarily enter into an agreement with a participating financial intermediary to sell its receivables due from the Company. The vendor receives payment from the financial intermediary, and the Company pays the financial intermediary on the terms originally negotiated with the vendor, which generally range from 90 to 120 days. The vendor negotiates the terms of the agreements directly with the financial intermediary and the Company is not a party to that agreement. The financial intermediary may allow the participating vendor to utilize the Company’s creditworthiness in establishing credit spreads and associated costs, which may provide the vendor with more favorable terms than they would be able to secure on their own. The Company does not provide guarantees related to the SCF program. At September 30, 2026, outstanding obligations confirmed as valid under the SCF program were $275 million ($239 million at December 31, 2025), included in “Accounts payable – Trade” in the consolidated balance sheets.

NOTE 6 – INCOME TAXES

As the financial statements for Dow Inc. and TDCC are substantially similar, including the provision for income taxes, the following income tax discussion does not include reference to TDCC's provision for income taxes or its effective tax rate.

The Company's effective tax rate fluctuates based on, among other factors, where income is earned, the level of income relative to tax attributes and the level of equity earnings, since most earnings from the Company's equity method investments are taxed at the joint venture level.

The following table provides effective tax rate information for Dow Inc. for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:

Effective Tax Rate InformationThree Months EndedNine Months Ended
Amounts in millionsSep 30, 2026Sep 30, 2025Sep 30, 2026Sep 30, 2025
Income (loss) before income taxes$642 $70 $1,123 $(963)
Provision (credit) for income taxes$117 $(54)$241 $4 
Effective tax rate18.2 %(77.1)%21.5 %(0.4)%

The credit for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was impacted by the recording of a tax benefit stemming from the U.S. Tax Court's decision in Varian Medical Systems Inc. v. Commissioner of $100 million and a tax benefit of $20 million related to the sale of an additional portion of the Company's membership interests in Diamond Infrastructure Solutions, partially offset by losses attributable to jurisdictions for which no tax benefit can be recognized. The provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was also impacted by the recording of valuation allowances in certain foreign jurisdictions of $242 million and losses attributable to jurisdictions for which no tax benefit can be recognized, partially offset by a tax benefit of $89 million related to the initial sale of a portion of the Company's membership interests in Diamond Infrastructure Solutions. These factors resulted in a negative effective tax rate for both periods.

2.These outstanding stock units were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the effect of including them would have been antidilutive.

NOTE 9 – NONCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES

For additional information on the Company’s nonconsolidated affiliates, see Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2025 10-K.

The Company's investments in companies accounted for using the equity method ("nonconsolidated affiliates"), by classification in the consolidated balance sheets are shown in the following table:

At September 30, 2026, the Company had a negative investment balance in Sadara Chemical Company ("Sadara") of $758 million included in "Other noncurrent obligations" (negative $901 million at December 31, 2025) in the consolidated balance sheets. In accordance with ASC Topic 323 "Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures," the Company suspended recognition of its share of equity losses from Sadara in the first quarter of 2026, as the carrying value of Sadara related liabilities recorded in Dow’s consolidated balance sheets (primarily the negative investment balance and guarantee liabilities) reached the total of Dow’s existing relevant obligations and commitments. See Notes 12 and 19 for additional information.

At September 30, 2026, the Company had a negative investment balance in EQUATE Petrochemical Company K.S.C.C. of $30 million included in "Other noncurrent obligations" (negative $24 million at December 31, 2025) in the consolidated balance sheets. The increase in the negative investment was driven by dividends distributed to shareholders, net of equity earnings in the first nine months of 2026.

NOTE 10 – TRANSFERS OF FINANCIAL ASSETS

Accounts Receivable Programs

The Company maintains accounts receivable facilities with various financial institutions, with committed and uncommitted facilities in the United States, which are set to expire in November 2028 and committed and uncommitted facilities in Europe, which are set to expire in March 2029 (collectively, "the Programs"). Under the terms of the Programs, the Company may sell certain eligible trade accounts receivable at any point in time, up to $900 million for the U.S. committed facility and up to €400 million for the Europe committed facility. Under the terms of the Programs, the Company continues to service the receivables from the customer, but retains no interest in the receivables, and remits payment to the financial institutions. Losses on transfers of receivables were insignificant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025. The Company also provides a guarantee to the financial institutions for the creditworthiness and collection of the receivables in satisfaction of the facility. See Note 12 for additional information related to guarantees.

The Company has access to accounts receivable discounting facilities that cover certain receivables generated from sales in EMEAI, Asia Pacific and Canada (collectively, "the Facilities"). Under the terms of the Facilities, the Company retains no interest in the transferred receivables once sold and receivables are transferred with limited recourse. The Company continues to service the receivables from the customer and remits payment to the Facilities. Losses on transfers of receivables were insignificant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

The following table provides a summary of cash flows related to the Programs and the Facilities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:

Debt Covenants and Default Provisions

There were no material changes to the debt covenants and default provisions related to the Company's outstanding long-term debt and primary, private credit agreements in the first nine months of 2026. For additional information on the Company's debt covenants and default provisions, see Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2025 10-K.

NOTE 12 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

A summary of the Company's commitments and contingencies can be found in Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2025 10-K, which is incorporated by reference herein.

Environmental Matters

Accruals for environmental matters are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated, based on current law and existing technologies. At September 30, 2026, the Company had accrued obligations of $991 million for probable environmental remediation and restoration costs ($1,011 million at December 31, 2025), including $233 million for the remediation of Superfund sites ($221 million at December 31, 2025). This is management’s best estimate of the costs for remediation and restoration with respect to environmental matters for which the Company has accrued liabilities, although it is reasonably possible that the ultimate cost with respect to these particular matters could range up to approximately two and a half times that amount. Consequently, it is reasonably possible that environmental remediation and restoration costs in excess of amounts accrued could have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. It is the opinion of the Company’s management, however, that the possibility is remote that costs in excess of the range disclosed will have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Inherent uncertainties exist in these estimates primarily due to unknown conditions, changing governmental regulations and legal standards regarding liability, and emerging remediation technologies for handling site remediation and restoration. As new or additional information becomes available and/or certain spending trends become known, management will evaluate such information in determination of the current estimate of environmental liability.

Litigation

Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation

Each quarter, Union Carbide reviews asbestos-related claims filed, settled and dismissed, as well as average settlement and resolution costs by disease category. Union Carbide also considers additional quantitative and qualitative factors such as the nature of pending claims, trial experience of Union Carbide and other asbestos defendants, current spending for defense and processing costs, significant appellate rulings and legislative developments, trends in the tort system, and their respective effects on expected future resolution costs. Union Carbide's management considers these factors in conjunction with the most recent actuarial study and determines whether a change in the estimate is warranted. Based on Union Carbide's review of 2026 activity, it was determined that no adjustment to the accrual was required at September 30, 2026.

Union Carbide’s total asbestos-related liability for pending and future claims and defense and processing costs was $645 million at September 30, 2026 ($708 million at December 31, 2025). At September 30, 2026, approximately 29 percent of the recorded claim liability related to pending claims and approximately 71 percent related to future claims.

Gain Contingency - Dow v. Nova Chemicals Corporation Ethylene Asset Matter

In 2019, the Court of King's Bench of Alberta, Canada ("Court") found Nova Chemicals Corporation ("Nova") liable for engaging in a deliberate and continuing course of conduct of conversion, breach of contract, gross negligence and willful misconduct in the operation of the companies’ jointly-owned ethylene asset in Joffre, Alberta, Canada ("Ethylene Asset"). As a result of the liability finding, which is now final and non-appealable, the Court signed a judgment ordering Nova to pay $1.43 billion Canadian dollars (equivalent to approximately $1.08 billion U.S. dollars) for damages incurred through 2012. Nova made payment in October 2019. At September 30, 2026, $201 million ($201 million at December 31, 2025) was included in "Other noncurrent obligations" in the Company's consolidated balance sheets related to the disputed portion of the 2019 damages judgment.

On June 10, 2025, the Court signed a separate judgment ordering Nova to pay an additional amount of $1.62 billion Canadian dollars (equivalent to approximately $1.2 billion U.S. dollars) for damages incurred through June 2018, which had not been previously quantified. The Court again found that Nova failed to operate the Ethylene Asset at full capacity during this time, depriving the Company’s subsidiaries of millions of pounds of ethylene. On August 11, 2025, the Court also awarded fees of approximately $100 million U.S. dollars, bringing Nova’s payment obligation to approximately $1.3 billion U.S. dollars. In March 2026, after Nova’s procedural attempt to avoid payment and enforcement measures during its pending appeal on damages was denied, Nova paid $1.4 billion Canadian dollars (equivalent to approximately $1.0 billion U.S. dollars) directly to the Company and remitted withholding tax of $452 million Canadian dollars to the Canada Revenue Agency ("CRA") for the tax account of one of the Company's subsidiaries. The Company sought a refund of the withholding tax and, in the third quarter of 2026, the Company received the full refund from the CRA, equivalent to $318 million U.S. dollars.

Certain portions of the damages judgment were not in dispute and, in accordance with ASC 450-30 "Gain Contingencies" ("ASC 450-30"), the Company recorded a $40 million pretax gain in the first quarter of 2026, of which $14 million was included in "Selling, general and administrative expenses" in the consolidated statements of income and $26 million was included in "Sundry income (expense) - net" in the consolidated statements of income and related to Packaging & Specialty Plastics. In the third quarter of 2026, certain additional portions of the damages judgment were considered no longer in dispute and, in accordance with ASC 450-30, the Company recorded a $74 million pretax gain, of which $5 million was included in "Selling, general and administrative expenses" in the consolidated statements of income and $69 million was included in "Sundry income (expense) - net" in the consolidated statements of income and related to Packaging & Specialty Plastics. At September 30, 2026, $1,220 million was included in "Other noncurrent obligations" in the Company's consolidated balance sheets related to the disputed portion of the 2025 damages judgment and related fees.

Dow has filed a similar lawsuit against Nova in the Court to recover damages due to lost ethylene volumes from the operation of the Ethylene Asset after June 2018.

Guarantees

The following table provides a summary of the final expiration, maximum future payments and recorded liability included in the consolidated balance sheets for guarantees:

Maximum
Future Payments
Recorded Liability Final
Expiration
Maximum
Future Payments
Recorded Liability
Guarantees2038$1,355 $586 2038$1,307 $212 

Guarantees arise during the ordinary course of business from relationships with customers, accounts receivable facilities and nonconsolidated affiliates when the Company undertakes an obligation to guarantee the performance of others (via delivery of cash or other assets) if specified triggering events occur. With guarantees, such as commercial or financial contracts, non-performance by the guaranteed party triggers the obligation of the Company to make payments to the beneficiary of the guarantee. The majority of the Company’s guarantees relate to debt of nonconsolidated affiliates, which have expiration dates ranging from less than one year to 12 years.

The Company maintains accounts receivable facilities with various financial institutions, with committed and uncommitted facilities in the United States and in Europe. Under the terms of the Programs, the Company continues to service the receivables from the customers, but retains no interest in the receivables, and remits payment to the financial institutions. The Company also has access to accounts receivable discounting facilities, under which receivables are transferred with limited recourse. The Company’s maximum guaranteed liability for the accounts receivable facilities was zero at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

TDCC has entered into guarantee agreements related to Sadara, a nonconsolidated affiliate. Sadara reached an agreement with its lenders to re-profile its outstanding project financing debt in the first quarter of 2021. In conjunction with the debt re-profiling, TDCC currently guarantees approximately $1.2 billion of principal, and the respective interest, of Sadara’s project financing debt. Based on current market conditions and continued evaluation, the Company believes there is a more than remote probability that some future performance under the project financing guarantee may be required due to uncertainty in Sadara's cash flows. As part of the debt re-profiling, Sadara established a $500 million revolving credit facility guaranteed by Dow, which would be used to fund Dow’s pro-rata share of any potential shortfall. In 2025, Sadara drew $80 million under the revolving credit facility. The term of the revolving credit facility expired in the second quarter of 2026 and the Company remitted cash to satisfy the outstanding $80 million guarantee obligation. This payment is included in "Investments in and loans to nonconsolidated affiliates" in the consolidated statements of cash flows. In the second quarter of 2026, as part of the debt re-profiling commitments, Dow issued a letter of credit for $86 million which expires in the fourth quarter of 2026. See Note 9 for additional information on Dow's investment in Sadara and Note 19 for additional information on fair value measurements.

Table of Contents

For equity securities calculated at net asset value per share (or its equivalent), the Company had $102 million in private equity and $11 million in real estate at September 30, 2026 ($109 million in private equity and $13 million in real estate at December 31, 2025). There are no redemption restrictions and the unfunded commitments on these investments were $69 million at September 30, 2026 and $65 million at December 31, 2025.

For assets classified as Level 3 measurements, fair value is based on significant unobservable inputs including assumptions where there is little, if any, market activity. The level 3 asset values represent the fair value of an investment in a corporate bond, accounted for as a debt security.

For liabilities classified as Level 3 measurements, fair value is based on significant unobservable inputs including assumptions where there is little, if any, market activity. The fair value of the Company’s accrued liability related to the guarantee of Sadara’s project financing debt is in proportion to the Company’s 35 percent ownership interest in Sadara. The estimated fair value of the project financing debt guarantee was calculated using a "with" and "without" method. The fair value of the debt was calculated "with" the guarantee less the fair value of the debt "without" the guarantee. The "with" and "without" values were calculated using a discounted cash flow method based on contractual cash flows as well as projected prepayments made on the debt by Sadara. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the fair value of the project financing debt guarantee liability increased by $298 million, which was included in “Equity in earnings (losses) of nonconsolidated affiliates” in the consolidated statements of income. The increase in fair value was primarily attributable to adverse business conditions impacting Sadara’s operations, including the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East. See Note 12 for further information on guarantees.

Dow’s measure of profit/loss for segment reporting purposes is Operating EBIT as this is the manner in which the chief executive officer, chief financial officer, general counsel, and senior vice president of corporate development, together the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), assesses performance and allocates resources for the three operating segments. The CODM compares quarterly results to both the year-ago and sequential periods to assess performance and allocate resources to each segment. The Company defines Operating EBIT as earnings (i.e., "Income (loss) before income taxes") before interest, excluding the impact of significant items. Operating EBIT by segment includes all operating items relating to the businesses; items that principally apply to Dow as a whole are assigned to Corporate.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is a combined report being filed by Dow Inc. and The Dow Chemical Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (“TDCC” and together with Dow Inc., “Dow” or the "Company") due to the parent/subsidiary relationship between Dow Inc. and TDCC. The information reflected in the report is equally applicable to both Dow Inc. and TDCC, except where otherwise noted. Each of Dow Inc. and TDCC is filing information in this report on its own behalf and neither company makes any representation to the information relating to the other company.

Pursuant to General Instruction H(1)(a) and (b) for Form 10-Q "Omission of Information by Certain Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries," TDCC is filing this Form 10-Q with the reduced disclosure format.

Except as otherwise indicated by the context, the term "Union Carbide" means Union Carbide Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Additionally, the term "Diamond Infrastructure Solutions" means Dow InfraCo, LLC, an entity that owns and operates infrastructure assets at certain Dow locations on the U.S. Gulf Coast and became a consolidated variable interest entity upon the sale of a portion of the entity's membership interests on May 1, 2025. The term "EMEAI" refers to the geographic region of Europe, Middle East, Africa and India.

Dow's website and its content are not deemed incorporated by reference into this report.

STATEMENT ON MIDDLE EAST CONFLICT

During 2026, the ongoing conflict involving Iran, Israel, and the United States and the resulting regional instability have disrupted global energy and petrochemical supply chains. The Strait of Hormuz remains a critical shipping corridor for crude oil, refined products, liquefied natural gas, and chemical feedstocks. Although diplomatic efforts continue and the intensity and nature of the conflict have varied, no comprehensive resolution has been reached. Continuing attacks and other security incidents involving commercial vessels, severe restrictions on maritime transit, and limitations on access to certain regional ports and trade routes have continued to affect global markets. These conditions have contributed to volatility in energy and feedstock prices, disruptions to regional production and logistics networks, longer transit times, and shifts in global trade flows as production and sourcing have been rebalanced to alternative regions. As a result, portions of the global chemical industry have experienced supply constraints, increased transportation and operating costs, and reduced supply chain reliability, particularly in Asia Pacific and Europe. Additionally, the Company's joint ventures located in the Middle East have been directly impacted by the conflict.

The Company operates in cost-advantaged geographic regions, including the U.S. & Canada and Latin America, which have not been directly impacted by the Middle East conflict. Additionally, the Company's feedstock flexibility has allowed the Company to operate its European assets competitively, despite the volatile energy and feedstock environment.

TRANSFORM TO OUTPERFORM

In 2026, the Company announced Transform to Outperform, a comprehensive set of actions designed to improve near-term Operating EBITDA by simplifying the Company’s operating model, reducing its cost structure and delivering faster growth. Transform to Outperform is expected to deliver approximately $2 billion near-term Operating EBITDA improvement from productivity improvements and growth and is accretive to the $1 billion structural cost reductions announced in the first quarter of 2025. In the first nine months of 2026, the Company delivered approximately $450 million in Operating EBITDA improvement from Transform to Outperform.

OUTLOOK

Dow is building a more resilient and competitive company that is positioned to create long-term value through continued focus on three priorities. First, driving growth and innovation in higher-value areas of its businesses where demand is growing well above GDP – including applications for AI infrastructure, home and personal care, electronics, flexible packaging and mobility. Second, the Company is taking action to strengthen the competitiveness of its portfolio by investing in differentiated low-cost positions while shutting down higher-cost upstream capacity. And third, Dow is maintaining a disciplined and balanced approach to capital allocation that supports long-term shareholder value creation. These priorities are underpinned by the Company's self-help actions, which are on track to deliver more than $1 billion of Operating EBITDA uplift in both 2026 and 2027.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales ("COS") was $9.9 billion in the third quarter of 2026, compared with $9.2 billion in the third quarter of 2025. COS increased in the third quarter of 2026 primarily due to higher raw material, feedstock and energy costs, higher logistics costs, and increased planned maintenance turnaround spending, partially offset by the Company's cost reduction initiatives. For the first nine months of 2026, COS was $29.0 billion compared with $28.5 billion in the first nine months of 2025. COS for the first nine months of 2026 increased primarily due to the impact of performance-based compensation costs, higher logistics costs, higher raw material, feedstock and energy costs, and increased planned maintenance turnaround spending, partially offset by the Company's cost reduction initiatives. COS as a percentage of net sales was 87.8 percent in the third quarter of 2026 (92.7 percent in the third quarter of 2025) and 87.4 percent for the first nine months of 2026 (93.5 percent for the first nine months of 2025).

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development ("R&D") expenses totaled $180 million in the third quarter of 2026, compared with $191 million in the third quarter of 2025. R&D expenses decreased in the third quarter of 2026 primarily due to the impact of the Company’s cost reduction initiatives. R&D expenses for the first nine months of 2026 were $568 million, compared with $579 million for the first nine months of 2025. R&D expenses for the first nine months of 2026 decreased primarily due to the Company’s cost reduction initiatives, partially offset by higher performance-based compensation costs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses totaled $408 million in the third quarter of 2026, compared with $340 million in the third quarter of 2025. SG&A expenses increased in the third quarter of 2026 primarily due to costs to achieve Transform to Outperform which more than offset the Company's cost reduction initiatives. For the first nine months of 2026, SG&A expenses were $1,360 million, compared with $1,053 million in the first nine months of 2025. SG&A expenses for the first nine months of 2026 increased primarily due to costs to achieve Transform to Outperform and higher performance-based compensation costs, partially offset by the Company's cost reduction initiatives. Costs to achieve Transform to Outperform will continue to be incurred through 2027.

Amortization of Intangibles

Amortization of intangibles was $40 million in the third quarter of 2026 compared with $46 million in the third quarter of 2025. In the first nine months of 2026, amortization of intangibles was $126 million, compared with $185 million in the first nine months of 2025. Amortization of intangibles decreased primarily due to certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized in 2025.

Restructuring and Asset Related Charges - Net

Transform to Outperform

On January 26, 2026, the Dow Inc. Board of Directors ("Board") approved Transform to Outperform, a comprehensive set of actions designed to improve near-term Operating EBITDA by simplifying the Company's operating model, reducing its cost structure and delivering faster growth. As a result of these actions, the Company recorded pretax charges of $27 million and $445 million in the first and second quarters of 2026, respectively, for severance and related benefit costs, related to Corporate. In the third quarter of 2026, the Company recorded pretax charges of $9 million for severance and related benefit costs, related to Corporate. See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

2025 Restructuring Program

On January 27, 2025, the Board approved targeted actions to further achieve the Company's cost reduction initiatives in response to ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty, while reinforcing its long-term competitiveness across the economic cycle. As a result of these actions, in the first quarter of 2025, the Company recorded pretax charges of $207 million for severance and related benefit costs, related to Corporate.

On June 30, 2025, the Board approved restructuring actions to rationalize the Company's global asset footprint, including certain actions identified as part of the Company's previously announced strategic review of its European assets and certain corporate and other assets, and to enhance the Company's competitiveness over the economic cycle. The program includes asset write-down and write-off charges, severance and related benefit costs and other exit and disposal costs. As a result of these actions, in the second quarter of 2025, the Company recorded pretax restructuring charges of $591 million, consisting of severance and related benefit costs of $154 million, asset write-downs and write-offs of $334 million and costs associated with exit and disposal activities of $103 million. Restructuring charges by segment were as follows: $158 million in Packaging & Specialty Plastics, $89 million in Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure, $147 million in Performance Materials & Coatings and $197 million in

Corporate. In the third quarter of 2025, the Company recorded additional pretax restructuring charges of $23 million, consisting of asset write-downs and write-offs of $8 million and costs associated with exit and disposal activities of $15 million. The additional restructuring charges by segment were as follows: $3 million in Packaging & Specialty Plastics, $6 million in Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure, $3 million in Performance Materials & Coatings and $11 million in Corporate. In the second quarter of 2026, the Company recorded additional pretax restructuring charges of $58 million, consisting of asset write-downs and write-offs of $8 million and costs associated with exit and disposal activities of $50 million. Restructuring charges by segment were as follows: $1 million in Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure and $57 million in Performance Materials & Coatings. See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

2023 Restructuring Program

Actions related to the restructuring program approved by the Board on January 25, 2023 were complete at the end of the second quarter of 2025. In the first quarter of 2025, the Company recorded an additional pretax restructuring charge of $5 million for asset write-downs and write-offs and an asset related credit adjustment of $4 million, related to Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure. See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Equity in Earnings (Losses) of Nonconsolidated Affiliates

The Company's share of equity in earnings (losses) of nonconsolidated affiliates was earnings of $12 million in the third quarter of 2026, compared with equity in losses of nonconsolidated affiliates of $72 million in the third quarter of 2025, driven by the Company's suspension of the recognition of its share of equity losses from the Sadara joint venture in 2026. The Company's share of equity in losses of nonconsolidated affiliates was $255 million for the first nine months of 2026, compared with equity in losses of nonconsolidated affiliates of $122 million for the first nine months of 2025. The increase in equity in losses of nonconsolidated affiliates was primarily related to an adjustment to the Company's liability associated with its guarantee of Sadara's project financing debt, related to Packaging & Specialty Plastics ($81 million) and Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure ($211 million), and lower results at the Company's Kuwait joint ventures. This was partially offset by the Company suspending recognition of its share of equity losses from Sadara in 2026. Cash dividends from nonconsolidated affiliates were $279 million for the first nine months of 2026, compared with $190 million for the first nine months of 2025. See Notes 9 and 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Sundry Income (Expense) – Net

Sundry income (expense) - net in the third quarter of 2026 was income of $50 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, compared with income of $185 million and $184 million, respectively, in the third quarter of 2025. The third quarter of 2026 included a gain associated with the Nova ethylene asset matter, non-operating pension and postretirement benefit plan credits, and foreign currency exchange gains, partially offset by a loss on early extinguishment of debt. The third quarter of 2025 included a gain from the divestiture of the Company's ownership interest in a nonconsolidated affiliate, non-operating pension and postretirement benefit plan credits and foreign currency exchange gains, partially offset by a loss on early extinguishment of debt. See Notes 5, 12, and 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Sundry income (expense) - net for the first nine months of 2026 was income of $296 million and $289 million for Dow Inc. and TDCC, respectively, compared with income of $345 million and $360 million, respectively, for the first nine months of 2025. The first nine months of 2026 included a gain associated with the Nova ethylene asset matter, foreign currency exchange gains, gains on the sales of other assets and investments, and non-operating pension and postretirement benefit plan credits, partially offset by a loss on early extinguishment of debt. The first nine months of 2025 included gains from the divestiture of the Company's soil fumigation product line and its ownership interest in a nonconsolidated affiliate, non-operating pension and postretirement benefit plan credits, and foreign currency exchange gains, partially offset by a loss on early extinguishment of debt. See Notes 5, 12, and 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Interest Expense and Amortization of Debt Discount

Interest expense and amortization of debt discount was $211 million in the third quarter of 2026, compared with $221 million in the third quarter of 2025. Interest expense and amortization of debt discount was $640 million in the first nine months of 2026, compared with $646 million in the first nine months of 2025.

Provision (Credit) for Income Taxes

The Company's effective tax rate fluctuates based on, among other factors, where income is earned, the level of income relative to tax attributes and the level of equity earnings, since most earnings from the Company's equity method investments are taxed at the joint venture level. In the third quarter of 2026, the Company reported a provision for income taxes of $117 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 18.2 percent. In the third quarter of 2025, the Company reported a credit for income taxes of $54 million, resulting in a negative effective tax rate of 77.1 percent. For the first nine months of 2026, the Company reported a provision for income taxes of $241 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 21.5 percent. For the first nine months of 2025, the Company reported a provision for income taxes of $4 million, resulting in a negative effective tax rate of 0.4 percent. The reported provision (credit) for income taxes and effective tax rates for TDCC are substantially similar.

The credit for income taxes in the third quarter of 2025 was impacted by the recording of a tax benefit stemming from the U.S. Tax Court's decision in Varian Medical Systems Inc. v. Commissioner of $100 million and a tax benefit of $20 million related to the sale of an additional portion of the Company's membership interests in Diamond Infrastructure Solutions, partially offset by losses attributable to jurisdictions for which no tax benefit can be recognized. The provision for income taxes for the first nine months of 2025 was also impacted by the recording of valuation allowances in certain foreign jurisdictions of $242 million and losses attributable to jurisdictions for which no tax benefit can be recognized, partially offset by a tax benefit of $89 million related to the initial sale of a portion of the Company's membership interests in Diamond Infrastructure Solutions. These factors resulted in a negative effective tax rate for both periods.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $67 million in the third quarter of 2026, compared with $62 million in the third quarter of 2025. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $236 million in the first nine months of 2026, compared with $113 million for the first nine months of 2025. The increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests reflects the ownership interest in Diamond Infrastructure Solutions held by InfraPark Holdings, LLC, which purchased 40 percent of the membership interests in Diamond Infrastructure Solutions in the second quarter of 2025 and an additional 9 percent in the third quarter of 2025. See Notes 15 and 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Net Income (Loss) Available for Common Stockholder(s)

Dow Inc.

Net income available for Dow Inc. common stockholders was $458 million, or $0.62 per share, in the third quarter of 2026, compared with $62 million, or $0.08 per share, in the third quarter of 2025. Net income (loss) available for Dow Inc. common stockholders was income of $646 million, or $0.88 per share, in the first nine months of 2026, compared with a loss of $1,080 million, or $1.53 per share, in the first nine months of 2025. See Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for details on Dow Inc.'s earnings per share calculations.

TDCC

Net income available for the TDCC common stockholder was $459 million in the third quarter of 2026, compared with $62 million in the third quarter of 2025. Net income (loss) available for the TDCC common stockholder was income of $643 million in the first nine months of 2026, compared with a loss of $1,059 million in the first nine months of 2025. TDCC's common shares are owned solely by Dow Inc.

SEGMENT RESULTS

For further discussion of the Company's segments, see Part I, Item 1. Business of the combined Dow Inc. and TDCC Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 ("2025 10-K"), filed with the SEC on February 3, 2026.

Dow’s measure of profit/loss for segment reporting purposes is Operating EBIT as this is the manner in which the chief executive officer, chief financial officer, general counsel, and senior vice president of corporate development, together the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), assesses performance and allocates resources for the three operating segments. The CODM compares quarterly results to both the year-ago and sequential periods to assess performance and allocate resources to each segment. The Company defines Operating EBIT as earnings (i.e., "Income (loss) before income taxes") before interest, excluding the impact of significant items. Operating EBIT by segment includes all operating items relating to the businesses; items that principally apply to Dow as a whole are assigned to Corporate. See Note 21 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for reconciliations of these measures.

Net sales for Corporate, which primarily relate to the Company's insurance operations, were $181 million in the third quarter of 2026, an increase from net sales of $166 million in the third quarter of 2025. Net sales were $530 million in the first nine months of 2026, an increase from net sales of $525 million in the first nine months of 2025.

Operating EBIT was a loss of $28 million in the third quarter of 2026, compared with a loss of $52 million in the third quarter of 2025. Operating EBIT increased primarily due to the benefit of the Company's cost reduction initiatives and the absence of nonrecurring expense items from the prior year. Operating EBIT was a loss of $90 million in the first nine months of 2026, compared with a loss of $144 million in the first nine months of 2025. Operating EBIT increased due to increased investment gains, the impact of the Company's cost reduction initiatives and the absence of nonrecurring expense items from the prior year, partially offset by higher environmental expenses.

CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION

The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $4,142 million at September 30, 2026 and $3,816 million at December 31, 2025, of which $2,742 million at September 30, 2026 and $2,636 million at December 31, 2025 was held by subsidiaries in foreign countries, including U.S. territories. For each of its foreign subsidiaries, Dow makes an assertion regarding the amount of earnings intended for permanent reinvestment, with the balance available to be repatriated to the United States.

Cash held by foreign subsidiaries for permanent reinvestment is generally used to finance the subsidiaries' operational activities and future foreign investments. Dow has the ability to repatriate additional funds to the United States, which could result in an adjustment to the tax liability for foreign withholding taxes, foreign and/or U.S. state income taxes and the impact of foreign currency movements. At September 30, 2026, management believed that sufficient liquidity was available in the United States. The Company has and expects to continue repatriating certain funds from its non‑U.S. subsidiaries that are not needed to finance local operations; however, these particular repatriation activities have not and are not expected to result in a significant incremental tax liability to the Company.

The Company's cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, as reflected in the consolidated statements of cash flows, are summarized in the following table:

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Cash used for investing activities in the first nine months of 2026 and 2025 was primarily for capital expenditures and purchases of investments, which were partially offset by proceeds from sales and maturities of investments. The first nine months of 2026 also included cash outflows to nonconsolidated affiliates, primarily related to Sadara (see Note 12 for additional information). The first nine months of 2025 also included a cash inflow related to the sale of the Company's soil fumigation product line and certain related assets, proceeds from incentives related to capital expenditures and the divestiture of the Company's ownership interest in a nonconsolidated affiliate.

The Company's capital expenditures were $1,841 million in the first nine months of 2026, compared with $1,911 million in the first nine months of 2025. The Company expects full year capital spending to be approximately $2.5 billion, including capital spending related to the construction of the Alberta project. As evidenced across this and prior economic cycles, the Company will proactively adjust its spending as economic conditions evolve.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Cash used for financing activities in the first nine months of 2026 for Dow Inc. was primarily related to dividends paid to stockholders, payments on long-term debt and distributions to noncontrolling interests. TDCC included cash outflows for dividends paid to Dow Inc. Cash provided by financing activities in the first nine months of 2025 was primarily related to proceeds from the sale of a minority stake in Diamond Infrastructure Solutions and proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt, which were partially offset by dividends paid to stockholders and payments on long-term debt. TDCC included cash outflows for dividends paid to Dow Inc.

Dow Inc. Non-GAAP Cash Flow Measures

Free Cash Flow

Dow defines Free Cash Flow as "Cash provided by operating activities - continuing operations," less capital expenditures. Under this definition, Free Cash Flow represents the cash generated by Dow from operations after investing in its asset base. Free Cash Flow, combined with cash balances and other sources of liquidity, represents the cash available to fund obligations and provide returns to shareholders. Free Cash Flow is an integral financial measure used in the Company's financial planning process.

Operating EBITDA

Dow defines Operating EBITDA as earnings (i.e., "Income (loss) before income taxes") before interest, depreciation and amortization, excluding the impact of significant items.

Dow defines Cash Flow Conversion (Cash Flow from Operations to Operating EBITDA) as "Cash provided by (used for) operating activities - continuing operations," divided by Operating EBITDA. Management believes Cash Flow Conversion is an important financial metric as it helps the Company determine how efficiently it is converting its earnings into cash flow.

These financial measures are not recognized in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and should not be viewed as alternatives to GAAP financial measures of performance. All companies do not calculate non-GAAP financial measures in the same manner and, accordingly, Dow's definitions may not be consistent with the methodologies used by other companies.

2.Cash flow from operations to net income is not applicable for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 due to a net loss for the period.

Liquidity & Financial Flexibility

The Company’s primary source of incremental liquidity is cash flows from operating activities. The generation of cash from operations over the economic cycle and the Company's ability to access capital markets is expected to meet the Company’s cash requirements for working capital, capital expenditures, debt maturities, payments associated with Transform to Outperform, contributions to pension plans, dividend distributions to stockholders, share repurchases and other needs. In addition to cash from operating activities, the Company’s current liquidity sources also include TDCC's U.S. and Euromarket commercial paper programs, committed and uncommitted credit facilities, committed accounts receivable facilities, a medium-term notes program, a U.S. retail note program (“InterNotes®”) and other debt markets.

Table of Contents

The Company continues to maintain a strong financial position with all of its committed credit facilities undrawn and fully available at September 30, 2026. Cash and committed and available forms of liquidity were $13.7 billion at September 30, 2026. The Company also has no substantive long-term debt maturities due until 2029. As a well-known seasoned issuer, the Company has ready access to debt capital markets, subject to market conditions, as an additional source of liquidity. Additional details on sources of liquidity are as follows:

Commercial Paper

TDCC issues promissory notes under its U.S. and Euromarket commercial paper programs. TDCC had no commercial paper outstanding at September 30, 2026. TDCC maintains access to the commercial paper market at competitive rates. Amounts outstanding under TDCC's commercial paper programs during the period may be greater or less than the amount reported at the end of the period. TDCC did not issue commercial paper subsequent to September 30, 2026.

Committed Credit Facilities

The Company also has the ability to access liquidity through TDCC's committed and available credit facilities. At September 30, 2026, TDCC had total committed and available credit facilities of $8.2 billion.

Uncommitted Credit Facilities

The Company has entered into various uncommitted bilateral credit arrangements as a potential source of excess liquidity. These lines can be used to support short-term liquidity needs and for general purposes. The Company had no drawdowns outstanding at September 30, 2026.

Accounts Receivable Securitization Facilities

In addition to the above credit facilities, the Company maintains a committed accounts receivable facility in the United States where eligible trade accounts receivable, up to $900 million, may be sold at any point in time and is set to expire in November 2028. The Company also maintains a committed accounts receivable facility in Europe where eligible trade accounts receivable, up to €400 million, may be sold at any point in time and is set to expire in March 2029. In the first nine months of 2026, there were no sales of receivables under the committed accounts receivable facilities ($106 million in sales of receivables in the first nine months of 2025). No sold receivables were outstanding with the facilities at September 30, 2026.

In addition, the Company has an uncommitted accounts receivable facility in the United States providing additional liquidity, set to expire in November 2028. The Company also maintains an uncommitted accounts receivable facility in Europe providing additional liquidity, set to expire in March 2029. Sales of receivables under the facility in Europe were $6 million in the first nine months of 2026 ($147 million in sales of receivables in the first nine months of 2025). No sold receivables were outstanding with the facilities at September 30, 2026. See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Early Settlement of Letters of Credit

The Company utilizes, from time-to-time, letters of credit discounting programs to manage and expedite the settlement of letters of credit in certain regions. These letters of credit are associated with accounts receivable and the Company retains no interest in the transferred letters of credit or receivables once sold.

Accounts Receivable Discounting Facilities

The Company has access to accounts receivable discounting facilities, under which receivables are transferred with limited recourse. The Company retains no interest in the transferred receivables once sold. There were no sales of receivables under the discounting facilities in the first nine months of 2026 ($285 million sales of receivables in the first nine months of 2025). No sold receivables were outstanding with the facilities at September 30, 2026. See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

The Company maintains these facilities and also participates in certain customers’ supply chain financing and other early pay programs as a routine source of working capital.

Company-Owned Life Insurance

The Company has investments in company-owned life insurance ("COLI") policies, which are recorded at their cash surrender value as of each balance sheet date. The Company has the ability to monetize its investment in its COLI policies as an additional source of liquidity. At December 31, 2025, the Company had monetized $197 million of its existing COLI policies' cash surrender value. The Company repaid the drawdown against the cash surrender value in 2026 and there was no outstanding monetization of the Company's existing COLI policies' cash surrender value at September 30, 2026. See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Debt

As the Company continues to maintain its strong balance sheet and financial flexibility, management is focused on net debt (a non-GAAP financial measure), as the Company believes this is the best representation of its financial leverage at this point in time. As shown in the following table, net debt is equal to total gross debt minus "Cash and cash equivalents" and "Marketable securities."

1.Included in "Other current assets" in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company may at any time repurchase certain debt securities in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions subject to: the applicable terms under which any such debt securities were issued, certain internal approvals of the Company, and applicable laws and regulations of the relevant jurisdiction in which any such potential transactions might take place. This in no way obligates the Company to make any such repurchases nor should it be considered an offer to do so.

TDCC's public debt instruments and primary, private credit agreements contain, among other provisions, certain customary restrictive covenant and default provisions. TDCC's most significant debt covenant with regard to its financial position is the obligation to maintain the ratio of its consolidated indebtedness to consolidated capitalization at no greater than 0.70 to 1.00 at any time the aggregate outstanding amount of loans under the Five Year Competitive Advance and Revolving Credit Facility Agreement ("Revolving Credit Agreement") equals or exceeds $500 million. The ratio of TDCC's consolidated indebtedness to consolidated capitalization as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement was 0.47 to 1.00 at September 30, 2026. Management believes TDCC was in compliance with all of its covenants and default provisions at September 30, 2026. For information on TDCC's debt covenants and default provisions, see Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2025 10-K. There were no material changes to the debt covenants and default provisions related to TDCC’s outstanding long-term debt and primary, private credit agreements in the first nine months of 2026.

In the second quarter of 2026, the Company redeemed $12 million aggregate principal amount of 6.30 percent notes due March 2033, $10 million aggregate principal amount of 5.65 percent notes due March 2036, $20 million aggregate principal amount of 5.25 percent notes due November 2041, $12 million aggregate principal amount of 5.55 percent notes due November 2048, $10 million aggregate principal amount of 6.90 percent notes due May 2053, and $13 million aggregate principal amount of 5.95 percent notes due March 2055. As a result of the redemption, the Company recognized a pretax gain on the early extinguishment of debt of $3 million, included in "Sundry income (expense) - net" in the consolidated statements of income.

In the third quarter of 2026, the Company redeemed $63 million aggregate principal amount of 7.38 percent notes due November 2029, $13 million aggregate principal amount of 7.85 percent notes due July 2029, $125 million aggregate principal amount of 9.40 percent notes due May 2039, and $99 million aggregate principal amount of 6.90 percent notes due May 2053. As a result of the redemption, the Company recognized a pretax loss on the early extinguishment of debt of $53 million, included in "Sundry income (expense) - net" in the consolidated statements of income, related to Corporate.

In the first nine months of 2026, the Company issued an aggregate principal amount of $100 million of InterNotes®. Additionally, the Company repaid $83 million of long-term debt at maturity.

Dividends

Dow Inc.

Dow Inc. has paid dividends on a quarterly basis since the separation from DowDuPont and expects to continue to do so, subject to approval by the Board. The following table summarizes dividends declared and paid to common stockholders of record in 2026:

Dow Inc. Dividends Declared and Paid
Declaration DateRecord DatePayment DateAmount (per share)
February 12, 2026February 27, 2026March 13, 2026$0.35

October 15, 2026November 30, 2026December 11, 2026$0.35 

TDCC

TDCC has committed to fund Dow Inc.'s dividends paid to common stockholders and share repurchases, as approved by the Board, as well as certain governance expenses. Funding is accomplished through intercompany loans. TDCC's Board reviews and determines a dividend distribution to Dow Inc. to settle the intercompany loans. For the three months ended September 30, 2026, TDCC declared and paid a dividend to Dow Inc. of $257 million ($771 million dividend declared and paid to Dow Inc. for the nine months ended September 30, 2026). At September 30, 2026, TDCC's intercompany loan balance with Dow Inc. was insignificant.

Share Repurchase Program

On April 13, 2022, the Board approved a share repurchase program authorizing up to $3 billion for the repurchase of the Company's common stock, with no expiration date. The Company did not repurchase any of its common stock in the first nine months of 2026 or 2025. At September 30, 2026, approximately $931 million of the share repurchase program authorization remained available for repurchases. As previously announced, the Company intends to repurchase shares at a minimum to cover dilution over the economic cycle. The Company may from time to time expand its share repurchases beyond dilution, based on a number of factors including macroeconomic conditions, free cash flow generation, and the Dow share price. Any share repurchases, when coupled with the Company's dividends, are intended to implement the long-term strategy of targeting shareholder remuneration of approximately 65 percent of Operating Net Income over the economic cycle.

Pension Plans

The Company has both funded and unfunded defined benefit pension plans in the United States and a number of other countries. The Company's funding policy is to contribute to plans when pension laws and/or economics either require or encourage funding. The Company expects to contribute approximately $220 million to its pension plans in 2026, of which $138 million has been contributed through September 30, 2026. See Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2025 10-K for additional information related to the Company's pension plans.

Transform to Outperform and Restructuring

Transform to Outperform is expected to result in additional cash expenditures of approximately $800 million over the next two years and consists of severance and related benefit costs, implementation costs, and other costs incurred to achieve the intended uplift in Operating EBITDA. Costs to achieve totaled $60 million and $194 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively.

The 2025 Restructuring Program is expected to result in additional cash expenditures of approximately $370 million primarily over the next three years and consists of severance and related benefit costs, implementation costs related to decommissioning and demolition and additional costs associated with exit and disposal activities. Restructuring implementation costs totaled $31 million and $80 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively ($5 million and $10 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively).

The Company expects to incur additional costs in the future related to its restructuring activities, which will be recognized as incurred. The Company also expects to incur additional employee-related costs, including involuntary termination benefits related to its other optimization activities, including Transform to Outperform. These costs cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the Company's restructuring activities.

OTHER MATTERS

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2025 10-K describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The Company’s critical accounting policies that are impacted by judgments, assumptions and estimates are described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the 2025 10-K. Since December 31, 2025, there have been no material changes in the Company’s accounting policies that are impacted by judgments, assumptions and estimates.

Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation

Union Carbide is and has been involved in a large number of asbestos-related suits filed primarily in state courts during the past several decades. These suits principally allege personal injury resulting from exposure to asbestos‑containing products and frequently seek both actual and punitive damages. The alleged claims primarily relate to products that Union Carbide sold in the past, alleged exposure to asbestos-containing products located on Union Carbide’s premises, and Union Carbide’s responsibility for asbestos suits filed against a former Union Carbide subsidiary, Amchem Products, Inc. (“Amchem”). In many cases, plaintiffs are unable to demonstrate that they have suffered any compensable loss as a result of such exposure, or that injuries incurred in fact resulted from exposure to Union Carbide’s products.

The table below provides information regarding asbestos-related claims pending against Union Carbide and Amchem based on criteria developed by Union Carbide and its external consultants:

Asbestos-Related Claim Activity20262025
Claims unresolved at Jan 17,158 5,813

6,579 6,501 
Claimants with claims against both Union Carbide and Amchem(1,097)(1,192)

Individual claimants at Sep 30

Plaintiffs’ lawyers often sue numerous defendants in individual lawsuits or on behalf of numerous claimants. As a result, the damages alleged are not expressly identified as to Union Carbide, Amchem or any other particular defendant, even when specific damages are alleged with respect to a specific disease or injury. For these reasons and based upon Union Carbide’s litigation and settlement experience, Union Carbide does not consider the damages alleged against Union Carbide and Amchem to be a meaningful factor in its determination of any potential asbestos-related liability.

For additional information, see Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation in Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements; Part II, Item 1. Legal Proceedings; and Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2025 10-K.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Asbestos-Related Matters of Union Carbide Corporation

No material developments regarding this matter occurred in the first nine months of 2026. For a current status of this matter, see Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Securities Litigation

On August 29, 2025, a putative securities class action was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan alleging violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. On March 31, 2026, an amended complaint was filed naming the Company, its then Chief Executive Officer, and its Chief Financial Officer as defendants. The amended complaint alleges that the defendants made false and misleading statements regarding the Company’s ability to sustain its dividend, which allegedly caused the Company’s securities to trade at artificially inflated prices. The action seeks unspecified compensatory damages.

Four putative shareholder derivative actions were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan on September 5, 2025, September 11, 2025, September 18, 2025, and November 21, 2025, which are based on alleged facts and circumstances similar to the above-referenced securities class action, and name the Company's then Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, then Chief Operating Officer, and members of its Board of Directors, as defendants. A shareholder derivative action based on similar facts and circumstances was also filed in the Delaware Court of Chancery on April 20, 2026, naming the same individuals as the Michigan derivatives suits, except the then Chief Operating Officer. The five derivative actions assert claims for violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, breach of fiduciary duty, and other claims, and seek to recover damages on behalf of the Company. All of the derivative actions either have been stayed or are in the process of being stayed pending resolution of defendants’ motion to dismiss the securities class action case.

Environmental Proceedings

On February 13, 2026, the State of Texas filed a complaint related to Union Carbide and Dow Hydrocarbons and Resources LLC in the civil district court of Travis County, Texas, on behalf of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality relating to wastewater discharges from Union Carbide’s site in Seadrift, Texas. The complaint alleges violations of the site’s wastewater permit, the Texas Water Code and the Texas Solid Waste Disposal Act.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Except for the following Risk Factor, which was updated in the first and second quarters of 2026 and is included below, there have been no material changes to the Company's Risk Factors since December 31, 2025:

Global Economic Considerations: The Company operates in a global, competitive environment which gives rise to operating and market risk exposure.

The Company sells its broad range of products and services in a competitive, global environment, and competes worldwide for sales on the basis of product quality, price, technology and customer service. Increased levels of worldwide competition have resulted in lower prices and lower sales volume, which have had a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations. While global trade disruptions caused by the conflict in the Middle East may provide opportunities for the Company to increase certain sales prices and volumes in the near term, the conflict and its impacts continue to evolve and are expected to remain volatile, and there is no guarantee any such increases will continue. To address these challenges amidst the ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty, the Company has taken and continues to take targeted cost reduction initiatives and other actions to advance its balanced capital allocation approach and enhance financial flexibility. The Company will continue to seek additional actions to mitigate the impact of macroeconomic uncertainty. Unforeseen macroeconomic conditions could result in additional actions and could adversely affect equity performance until market conditions improve. For additional information, see Part I Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Sales of the Company's products are also subject to extensive federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations; trade agreements; import and export controls; taxes; and duties and tariffs. The imposition of additional regulations, controls, taxes, duties and tariffs or changes to bilateral and regional trade agreements could also result in lower sales volume, which could negatively impact the Company’s results of operations.

Table of Contents

During 2025, the United States changed its long-standing trade policies and announced significant new tariffs, with certain exceptions, on virtually all imported goods. These actions triggered the negotiation of new trade agreements with certain U.S. trading partners, resulting in the reduction of certain of the newly imposed tariffs. Several U.S. trading partners also imposed retaliatory tariffs on U.S. imports. While certain U.S. tariffs were struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court in February 2026, the United States subsequently announced additional new tariffs on virtually all nonexempt imports, and current U.S. tariff rates remain substantially above pre-2025 levels. Shifts in tariffs, trade agreements, import/export restrictions, trade sanctions, sector specific trade barriers, and other governmental trade actions, whether enacted by the United States or other countries, especially those instituted in the Company's significant markets or markets where its significant customers or suppliers are located, and the associated uncertainty of long-term trade policies, could impact the Company's sales volume, sales price, and production and other costs. Changes in trade policies may also cause disruptions to material sourcing and availability, global supply chains and logistics and access to end markets. Additionally, changes in U.S. trade policy and associated responses from trading partners may create shifts in global market dynamics, disrupt the long-term planning process for governments and private enterprises and result in continued global financial market volatility. The impact of these changes in trade policies and the resulting trade and market uncertainty could have a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations. Tariffs and trade policies are expected to continue to evolve, and the United States, other countries and international trade bodies may institute new tariffs or more restrictive trade policies or remedies and, as a result, the Company may face additional uncertainties and adverse impacts on its business, financial condition and results of operations.

Economic conditions around the world, and in certain industries and geographic regions in which the Company does business, also impact sales price and volume and the efficacy of the Company's supply chain. For example, long-term market uncertainty, economic impacts driven by trade policies and inflationary pressures, and higher relative input costs have reduced demand for the Company's products in recent years. Adverse economic conditions have also caused supply chain constraints. These factors have had a negative impact on the Company's results of operations. Political conditions or tensions; war, invasion or conflict, including new and ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, such as the conflict between the United States, Israel and Iran, which began in February 2026 and has resulted in volatility and disruption of the global energy market, and the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine; terrorism; epidemics; pandemics; or political instability in the geographic regions or industries in which the Company operates or sells its products, have created and could continue to create volatility in global demand for the Company's products, and have disrupted and could continue to disrupt the supply chains, assets or operations of the Company and/or its joint ventures.

The Russia-Ukraine conflict has been ongoing for more than four years since Russia's February 2022 invasion of Ukraine, and although there have been recent efforts to seek a resolution, it remains unclear if these will be successful. In light of sanctions imposed by the United States, Canada, the European Union and other countries as a result of this conflict, Dow ceased in-bound investment to Russia and maintains reasonable, risk-based measures to ship into Russia only limited goods that comply with applicable legal restrictions. These actions have not had and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. The situation remains fluid and the ongoing conflict may result in additional economic sanctions or other measures, which could have a negative impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. These impacts could include decreased sales; supply chain and logistics disruptions; volatility in foreign exchange rates and interest rates; inflationary pressures on and availability of raw materials and energy, most notably in Europe; and heightened cybersecurity threats. Further, the intensity and duration of conflicts in the Middle East, including the recent conflict between the United States, Israel and Iran, and the potential for the expansion of hostilities in the region, are difficult to predict and could disrupt the Company's supply chains and operations, which could have a negative impact on the Company's results of operations.

In addition, volatility and disruption of financial markets could limit the ability of Dow's customers and suppliers to obtain adequate financing to maintain operations, which could result in a decrease in sales volume and have a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations. The Company’s global business operations also give rise to market risk exposure related to changes in inflation, foreign currency exchange rates, including the impact of foreign currency exchange rates resulting from highly inflationary economies such as Argentina, interest rates, commodity prices and other market factors such as equity prices. To manage such risks, the Company enters into hedging and other investment transactions, where deemed appropriate, pursuant to established guidelines and policies. If the Company fails to effectively manage such risks, it could have a negative impact on its results of operations.
