Cabot (CBT) Q3 EPS Beats by 4%

Cabot (NYSE:CBT), a leading specialty chemicals maker known for its reinforcement and performance materials used in automotive and industrial sectors, reported its earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, on August 4, 2025. The headline news from the release was a beat on adjusted earnings per share, with $1.90 versus the consensus estimate of $1.82. However, GAAP revenue missed at $923 million compared to an estimated $954.95 million and was down from $1,016 million (GAAP) in Q3 FY2024. The quarter reflected weaker sales volumes across core segments, yet margins held up thanks to cost discipline and ongoing savings programs. Overall, Cabot’s ability to deliver earnings above targets in a softer market environment came mainly from meticulous operational controls, even as demand—especially in tire and automotive applications—remained subdued.
