Description: IMCD IMCD November 07, 2025
IMCD N.V. is a Rotterdam-based global distributor of specialty chemicals and ingredients, serving customers across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, the Americas and Asia-Pacific. Its portfolio spans adhesives, flame retardants, pigments, polymers, surfactants, UV filters, lubricants, fuel additives and a wide array of functional additives for plastics, coatings, personal-care, and oil-&-gas markets.
According to the FY 2023 results (released in early 2024), IMCD generated €6.2 billion of revenue with an adjusted EBITDA margin of roughly 13%, reflecting the high-value, low-inventory nature of specialty-chemical distribution. Growth is being driven primarily by rising demand for lightweight automotive polymers and sustainable packaging solutions-sectors that historically grow at 4-5 % CAGR and benefit from regulatory pressure on emissions. However, the business remains exposed to macro-economic cycles and raw-material price volatility, which can compress margins in downturns.
If you want a data-rich, side-by-side comparison of IMCD’s cash-flow dynamics and peer multiples, the ValueRay platform offers a concise, quantitative deep-dive that can help you assess the investment case more rigorously.
