Celanese Corporation (CE) has recently encountered many hurdles in performance, with its stock hitting several 52-week lows and undergoing a large expansion in short interest throughout the years. The company's future seems uncertain due to barriers to outperformance. Despite being the S&P's worst performer, it is favored by institutional owners who comprise 89% of the company's hold. In a strategic
leadership transition, veteran COO Scott Richardson has been named the next CEO. Investigation claims have also been made by law firms on behalf of the company's investors. Celanese just missed EPS by 61%, leading to speculation by analysts on its future. The company expanded its board with a new director appointment and made strategic adjustments in Q3 2024 due to market challenges. It introduced low-carbon solutions and carbon capture innovation in its
sustainability report. Reductions in dividends and cuts in estimates have recently occurred as part of the corporation's
debt reduction strategy. In a recent partnership with Henkel, the company revealed a breakthrough in CO2-based adhesive technology. Despite the losses and declines, Celanese has been performing better than its competitors. The
Q3 earnings and revenues, however, largely missed estimates.
