Ecolab has reported strong Q4 2024 earnings and revenues growth, setting a record for the company. The increased returns on capital and introduction of a 5% trade surcharge in the US have led to stock gains. Additionally, Ecolab secured a $2 billion credit facility for business flexibility, all of which have contributed to their recent decent stock performance. They continue to show growth potential by surpassing Wall Street estimates for the upcoming Q1 earnings, securing a $2 billion credit facility, and posting strong financial results for Q4 2024.
