Olin shares surge 10.12% intraday as investors bet on discounted valuation and strategic cost cuts despite Q4 EBITDA outlook reduction.

Olin Corporation (OLN) surged 10.12% intraday following mixed news about its Q4 2025 earnings outlook and strategic adjustments. The company revised its adjusted EBITDA forecast downward to $67 million, citing Freeport maintenance overruns and weaker chlorine demand, which initially pressured the stock. However, analysts and investors interpreted the miss as temporary, emphasizing normalized operations and a discounted valuation (~9x mid-cycle earnings). Positive sentiment was driven by Seeking Alpha’s “Buy” stance and Yahoo Finance’s framing of the stock’s three-year decline as a potential buying opportunity. The move reflects repositioning around the guidance update, with focus on cost-cutting measures and long-term epoxy market potential. Elevated trading volume underscored active investor interest in the stock’s discounted valuation amid near-term challenges.
