Description: PPG PPG Industries October 16, 2025
PPG Industries (NYSE: PPG) is a global manufacturer and distributor of paints, coatings, and specialty materials, operating across three business segments: Global Architectural Coatings, Performance Coatings, and Industrial Coatings. The company serves a broad customer base that includes contractors, OEMs, aerospace and automotive manufacturers, infrastructure agencies, and packaging producers in North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa.
Key recent metrics (FY 2023) show revenue of roughly $19.2 billion, adjusted earnings per share of $5.20, and free cash flow of $2.1 billion, reflecting an operating margin near 11 %. The business is highly sensitive to macro-drivers such as U.S. residential construction spending, global automotive production volumes, and aerospace fleet-maintenance cycles, all of which influence demand for architectural and performance coatings. Raw-material cost volatility-particularly for epoxy resins and titanium dioxide-remains a material risk to margins.
