Investing.com -- Huntsman Corporation (NYSE:HUN) stock fell 4% in after-hours trading Monday following the company’s announcement of an unplanned outage at its Rotterdam, Netherlands Polyurethanes facility.

The chemical manufacturer said the outage will likely have a negative impact of approximately $10 million on its fourth quarter 2025 adjusted EBITDA. As a result, Huntsman now expects its fourth quarter 2025 adjusted EBITDA to be at the low end of the previously communicated range of $25 million to $50 million.

According to the company, the larger of its two MDI (methylene diphenyl diisocyanate) production lines at the Rotterdam facility is affected by the outage. Huntsman anticipates the line will resume production by mid-December.

The company noted that excluding the impact of the outage, the quarter is trending as previously expected. Huntsman had initially provided its fourth quarter outlook during its earnings call on November 6, 2025.

Polyurethanes represent a significant portion of Huntsman’s business, with MDI being a key component used in the production of rigid and flexible foams for various applications including insulation, furniture, and automotive parts.
