(NYSE: NL) today reported net income attributable to NL stockholders of $.7 million, or $.01 per share, in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $6.8 million, or $.14 per share, in the first quarter of 2024. NL\u2019s results include an unrealized loss of $8.5 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to a $2.4 million unrealized gain in the first quarter of 2024 related to the change in value of marketable equity securities.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">CompX\u2019s net sales were $40.3 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $38.0 million in the first quarter of 2024. CompX\u2019s first quarter 2025 net sales increased over the comparable 2024 period due to higher Marine Components sales primarily to the towboat and government markets and to a lesser extent higher Security Products sales primarily to the government security market. CompX\u2019s segment profit increased to $5.9 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $3.7 million in the first quarter of 2024 primarily due to higher Marine Components sales and gross margin.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">NL recognized equity in earnings of Kronos of $5.5 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $2.5 million in the same period of 2024. As previously reported, effective July 16, 2024, Kronos acquired the 50% joint venture interest in Louisiana Pigment Company, L.P. (\u201cLPC\u201d) previously held by Venator Investments, Ltd. Prior to the acquisition, Kronos held a 50% joint venture interest in LPC. Following the acquisition, LPC became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kronos. The results of operations of LPC have been included in Kronos\u2019 results of operations beginning as of the acquisition date.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Kronos\u2019 net sales of $489.8 million in the first quarter of 2025 were $11.0 million, or 2%, higher than in the first quarter of 2024. Kronos\u2019 net sales increased in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024 primarily due to the effects of higher sales volumes in its North American and European markets somewhat offset by lower sales volumes in its export markets, higher average TiO<sub>2<\/sub> selling prices and changes in product mix. Kronos started 2025 with average TiO<sub>2<\/sub> selling prices 2% higher than at the beginning of 2024 but its average TiO<sub>2<\/sub> selling prices declined 3% during the first quarter of 2025 due to market pressure in certain regions and less favorable product sales mix. Kronos\u2019 average TiO<sub>2<\/sub> selling prices in the first quarter of 2025 were 2% higher than the average prices during the first quarter of 2024. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates (primarily the euro) also affected net sales comparisons, decreasing net sales by approximately $11 million in first quarter of 2025 as compared to the first quarter of 2024. The table at the end of this press release shows how each of these items impacted Kronos\u2019 net sales.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Kronos\u2019 income from operations in the first quarter of 2025 was $38.4 million as compared to $19.5 million in the first quarter of 2024. Kronos\u2019 income from operations increased in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024 primarily due to the effects of higher sales and production volumes, higher average TiO<sub>2 <\/sub>selling prices, and decreases in per metric ton production costs (primarily raw materials, utilities and unabsorbed fixed costs due to improved operating rates in 2025). Kronos\u2019 TiO<sub>2<\/sub> production volumes were 18% higher in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024. Kronos operated its production facilities at overall average capacities of 93% and 87% in the first quarters of 2025 and 2024, respectively. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates (primarily the euro) decreased Kronos\u2019 income from operations by approximately $5 million in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the first quarter of 2024.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Corporate expenses increased $.3 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024 primarily due to higher environmental remediation and related costs and general and administrative expenses, partially offset by lower litigation fees and related costs. Interest and dividend income decreased $.6 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 primarily due to lower average interest rates and decreased cash balances. Marketable equity securities represent the change in unrealized gains (losses) on our portfolio of marketable equity securities during the period.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Net income attributable to NL stockholders for the first three months of 2024 includes a loss of $.3 million ($.01 per share, net of tax) due to Kronos\u2019 recognition of an aggregate charge related to a write-off of deferred financing costs.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The statements in this release relating to matters that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements that represent management&#8217;s beliefs and assumptions based on currently available information.
