Jim Fitterling, chairman and chief executive officer, commented on the quarter:
“I am proud of the Dow team’s determination and resilience in the midst of the global pandemic and rapid decline in global energy prices. We ensured the safety and security of our people and operations, maintained business continuity, and rapidly established an effective crisis management response. We showcased the necessity and value of our products as we met strong demand from our customers in food packaging, health and hygiene, and cleaning end-markets. And, we leveraged our extensive geographic reach and asset flexibility to quickly respond to shifting trends in regional consumption, as well as in feedstock prices, as crude oil prices declined 60% through the quarter.”
