HUN realized a tax benefit during the quarter (compared to our 28% rate) that boosted EPS by $0.10 vs. our model. Results excluded ~$0.12/share primarily related to losses on unallocated foreign currency and early extinguishment of debt. Sales volumes increased 17% as average selling prices increased 8%. Adjusted EBITDA of $219mm was slightly above our $211mm estimate, with most of the upside driven by Polyurethanes and Pigments." Citigroup maintains its Neutral rating and $18 price target.
