Kronos Worldwide (KRO) posted a 10% year-over-year increase in TiO2 sales volume in Q2 2026, capturing market share across all major regions while improving pricing power. The titanium dioxide producer expanded gross margin to 18% from 13% a year earlier, driven by restructuring savings and lower-cost inventory. EBITDA reached $52.9 million as operating cash flow strengthened materially. The stock has climbed 36.6% over the past twelve months.
The margin expansion reflects the company's ability to convert volume gains into profitability as industry conditions stabilize. With restructuring benefits now flowing through to the bottom line and inventory costs normalizing, KRO is leveraging operational improvements to drive cash generation.
