First quarter dividend of US$0.84 announced Shareholders will receive a dividend of US$0.84. Ex-date: 15th June 2026 Payment date: 8th July 2026 Dividend yield will be 5.1%, which is lower than the industry average of 6.1%. Sustainability & Growth Dividend is not adequately covered by earnings (96% earnings payout ratio). However, it is covered by cash flows (77% cash payout ratio). The dividend has increased by an average of 7.7% per year over the past 10 years and has been stable with no material reductions to payments, indicating a long track record of dividend growth and stability. The company's earnings per share (EPS) would need to grow by 6.5% to bring the payout ratio under control. EPS is expected to grow by 59% over the next 3 years, which is sufficient to bring the dividend into a sustainable range. 공시 • May 09

Eastman Launches Saflex Evoca Xir.Sr to Elevate Ev Sunroof Performance Eastman is launching Saflex Evoca XIR.SR, a next-generation infrared (IR)-reflective interlayer developed specifically for sunroofs in electric vehicles (EVs). Building on the 30-year XIR legacy, Eastman created the Evoca XIR.SR interlayer to reduce solar heat gain and offer a neutral, angle-stable reflected color. Engineered to keep vehicle cabins comfortable, the new interlayer helps reduce HVAC load and can improve battery and range efficiency. It is a high-performance solar control alternative to metal-coated glass. Evoca XIR.SR is now available globally. As EV interiors bring seats closer to sunroofs, occupants experience higher solar and thermal loads. Evoca XIR.SR reflects IR rays to lower total solar energy transmittance (TTS), helping to keep the cabin cooler and improve passenger comfort. The interlayer preserves optical clarity while delivering an angle-stable, neutral-gray reflection that eliminates the blue hue common in metal-coated glass. It offers design freedom for visible light transmission, haze and TTS to help designers balance daylighting, appearance and solar control. Key features and benefits of Saflex Evoca XIR.SR for panoramic sunroofs: Comfort — Lower solar heat gain to help keep cabins cooler and improve occupant comfort; Design flexibility — Supports flexible glass configurations while maintaining a consistent, neutral reflected color across glass types and viewing angles; Efficiency — Lowers TTS through the IR-reflective technology, helping ease HVAC load and supporting better range performance; actual range impact varies with driving profile, climate and usage; Manufacturability and supply chain advantages — Offers an IR-reflective alternative where metal-coated glass is not feasible, giving automotive glass suppliers a high-performance option that meets OEM requirements. Evoca XIR.SR is the latest addition to the Saflex Evoca portfolio. Developed by Eastman, Saflex Evoca brings next-generation design, efficiency and comfort to EVs. The interlayer can be configured alongside acoustic solar interlayers and a range of neutral grey colors to deliver enhanced performance. Eastman will be exhibiting at the Beijing International Automotive Exhibition, April 24 – May 3, 2026. Photos accompanying this announcement are available. 공시 • Apr 09

Eastman Launches Esmeri™ CC1N10, a Sustainable Beauty Breakthrough for Color Cosmetics Eastman announced the launch of Esmeri™ CC1N10, a high-performance, readily biodegradable* cellulose ester micropowder for color cosmetics. Sourced from sustainably managed forests, Esmeri is designed to meet stringent EU regulations for synthetic polymer microparticles that fully biodegrade and do not persist in the environment. Esmeri CC1N10 delivers a sustainable micropowder solution without compromising performance in color cosmetics. It offers a visually superior soft-focus optical effect, improved color intensity and payoff, and uniform coverage and sensorial experience in lipsticks, foundations and pressed powders. Designed for compatibility and stability, Esmeri is highly compatible with lipophilic cosmetic formulations and serves as a sustainable alternative to traditional microparticles.Leveraging over a century of expertise in cellulose esters technology, Eastman developed this ingredient to meet strict regulations while delivering superior performance. Esmeri CC1N10 is freshwater readily biodegradable, non-nano size and sustainably sourced from 63% wood pulp. It complies with the European Commission's regulation on synthetic polymer microparticles (Regulation EU 2023/2055) and is in alignment with the European Union's Zero Pollution Action Plan to reduce microplastics released into the environment by 30% by 2030. The unique properties of Esmeri CC1N10 enhance performance, resulting in a powder that optimally scatters light and fills in fine lines and wrinkles. This creates a smooth, even effect on skin across a variety of applications: Lipsticks have improved color intensity for a long-lasting, smoother application with greater evenness of coverage. Liquid foundations exhibit a desirable soft-focus and mattifying effect that diminishes imperfections for a smooth, even finish. Pressed powders display optimal compaction and desired pick-up that contribute to a beautiful, photo-finished appearance. 공시 • May 14
SUQQU Launches Sustainable Make Make Makeup Compact with Eastman Cristal™ One SUQQU has unveiled a new setting powder housed in a compact crafted from Eastman Cristal™ One copolyester. Recognizing the need for a suitable alternative to acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) in the base plate of its compact, SUQQU partnered with Eastman. Together, the two companies identified that Cristal One not only filled SUQQU's rigorous functional criteria but also maintained a luxury aesthetic. This recyclable resin helped SUQQU offer its consumers a sustainable alternative in its iconic compact. Eastman's Cristal One portfolio provides an end-of-life solution for cosmetics brands. The specialty PET is recognized by both the Association of Plastic Recyclers (APR) and RecyClass as being compatible with the resin identification code 1 (RIC1) stream, which means it can go directly into most municipal recycling systems. As global sustainability regulations continue to evolve, SUQQU has designed its luxury compact to align with the European Commission's Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulations (PPWR) and is continuously working toward achieving full compliance. Cristal One enhances both the durability and aesthetics of cosmetics packaging. The copolyester demonstrates superior performance compared to other candidate materials, such as PET, particularly excelling in drop impact resistance after secondary processing. Cristal One also meets the stringent requirements of SUQQU's design and performance standards. It allows for perfect shape while providing a deep, glossy black finish that enhances the product's luxury appeal. This could not be done with the ABS the brand previously used. 공시 • May 07
