FORWARD‑LOOKING STATEMENTS

With respect to Huntsman Corporation, certain information set forth in this report contains “forward‑looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All statements other than historical factual information are forward‑looking statements, including without limitation statements regarding: projections of revenue, expenses, profit, profit margins, tax rates, tax provisions, cash flows, pension and benefit obligations and funding requirements, our liquidity position or other projected financial measures; management’s plans and strategies for future operations, including statements relating to anticipated operating performance, cost reductions, restructuring activities, new product and service developments, competitive strengths or market position, acquisitions, divestitures, business separations, spin‑offs, or other distributions, strategic opportunities, securities offerings, stock repurchases, dividends and executive compensation; growth, declines and other trends in markets we sell into; new or modified laws, regulations and accounting pronouncements; outstanding claims, legal proceedings, tax audits and assessments and other contingent liabilities; foreign currency exchange rates and fluctuations in those rates; general economic and capital markets conditions; the timing of any of the foregoing; assumptions underlying any of the foregoing; and any other statements that address events or developments that we intend or believe will or may occur in the future. In some cases, forward‑looking statements can be identified by terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “anticipates” or “intends” or the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy. We may also make additional forward‑looking statements from time to time. All such subsequent forward‑looking statements, whether written or oral, by us or on our behalf, are also expressly qualified by these cautionary statements.

All forward‑looking statements, including without limitation management’s examination of historical operating trends, are based upon our current expectations and various assumptions. Our expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them, but there can be no assurance that management’s expectations, beliefs and projections will result or be achieved. All forward‑looking statements apply only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise forward‑looking statements whether because of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by securities and other applicable law.

There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward‑looking statements contained in or contemplated by this report. Any forward‑looking statements should be considered in light of the risks set forth in “Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors” below and “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. GENERAL

CERTAIN DEFINITIONS

For convenience in this report, the terms “Company,” “our,” “us” or “we” may be used to refer to Huntsman Corporation and, unless the context otherwise requires, its subsidiaries and predecessors. In this report, “Huntsman International” refers to Huntsman International LLC (our wholly-owned subsidiary) and, unless the context otherwise requires, its subsidiaries.

In this report, we may use, without definition, the common names of competitors or other industry participants. We may also use the common names or abbreviations for certain chemicals or products.

INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and Huntsman International’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP” or “U.S. GAAP”) and in management’s opinion reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of results of operations, comprehensive income, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for the full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2016 for our Company and Huntsman International.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

We are a global manufacturer of differentiated organic chemical products and of inorganic chemical products. Our products comprise a broad range of chemicals and formulations, which we market globally to a diversified group of consumer and industrial customers. Our products are used in a wide range of applications, including those in the adhesives, aerospace, automotive, construction products, personal care and hygiene, durable and non-durable consumer products, digital inks, electronics, medical, packaging, paints and coatings, power generation, refining, synthetic fiber, textile chemicals and dyes industries. We are a leading global producer in many of our key product lines, including MDI, amines, surfactants, maleic anhydride, epoxy-based polymer formulations, textile chemicals, dyes, titanium dioxide and color pigments.

We operate in five segments: Polyurethanes, Performance Products, Advanced Materials, Textile Effects and Pigments and Additives. Our Polyurethanes, Performance Products, Advanced Materials and Textile Effects segments produce differentiated organic chemical products and our Pigments and Additives segment produces inorganic chemical products. In a series of transactions beginning in 2006, we sold or shut down substantially all of our Australian styrenics operations and our North American polymers and base chemicals operations. We report the results of these businesses as discontinued operations.

COMPANY

Our Company, a Delaware corporation, was formed in 2004 to hold the Huntsman businesses. Jon M. Huntsman founded the predecessor to our Company in 1970 as a small packaging company. Since then, we have grown through a series of acquisitions and now own a global portfolio of businesses.

Currently, we operate all of our businesses through Huntsman International, our wholly-owned subsidiary. Huntsman International is a Delaware limited liability company and was formed in 1999.

HUNTSMAN CORPORATION AND HUNTSMAN INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Except where otherwise indicated, these notes relate to the condensed consolidated financial statements for both our Company and Huntsman International. The differences between our financial statements and Huntsman International’s financial statements relate primarily to the following:

purchase accounting recorded at our Company for the 2003 step‑acquisition of Huntsman International Holdings LLC, the former parent company of Huntsman International that was merged into Huntsman International in 2005;

the different capital structures; and

a note payable from Huntsman International to us.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our wholly‑owned and majority‑owned subsidiaries and any variable interest entities for which we are the primary beneficiary. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Separation of our Pigments and Additives Business

We are in the process of separating our Pigments and Additives business. On March 14, 2017, Venator Materials Corporation (“Venator”) filed a third amendment to the Form 10 registration statement with the SEC as part of this process. We now intend to pursue an initial public offering of our Pigments and Additives business, although we plan to retain the ability to separate the business through a tax-free spin-off depending on market conditions. The separation is targeted for the summer of 2017. For more information, see “Note 4. Separation of Pigments and Additives Business.”

Closure of Calais, France Manufacturing Facility

On March 17, 2017, we announced a plan to close the white end finishing and packaging operations of our titanium dioxide manufacturing facility based in Calais, France during the third quarter of 2017. The announced plan follows the 2015 closure of the black end manufacturing operations and will result in the closure of the entire facility. For more information, see “Note 6. Restructuring, Impairment and Plant Closing Costs.”

Pori Fire

On January 30, 2017, our titanium dioxide manufacturing facility in Pori, Finland experienced fire damage and is currently not fully operational. We are committed to repairing the facility as quickly as possible and we anticipate that a portion of our white end production will be operational during the second quarter of 2017. During the first quarter of 2017, we recorded a loss of $32 million for the write-off of fixed assets and lost inventory in other operating (income) expense, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. In addition, we recorded a loss of $4 million of costs for cleanup of the facility through March 31, 2017.

The site is insured for property damage as well as business interruption losses subject to retained deductibles of $15 million and 60 days, respectively, with a limit of $500 million. On February 9, 2017, we received $54 million as an initial partial progress payment from our insurer. During the first quarter of 2017, we recorded $32 million of income related to insurance recoveries in other operating (income) expense, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and we recorded $22 million as deferred income in accrued liabilities for costs not yet incurred.

Table of Contents

Amendments to Accounts Receivable Securitization Programs

On April 21, 2017, we entered into an Amended and Restated European Receivables Loan Agreement and a Master Amendment No. 6 to the U.S. Receivables Loan Agreement to, among other things, extend the respective scheduled termination dates to April 2020. For additional information, see “Part II. Item 5. Other Information—Amendments to A/R Programs.”

Early Prepayment of Debt

On April 25, 2017, we made an early prepayment of $100 million on our 2015 extended term loan B due 2019 (“2015 Extended Term Loan B”) from existing cash. For further information, see “Note 7. Direct and Subsidiary Debt—Senior Credit Facilities.”

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted During 2017

In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory . The amendments in this ASU do not apply to inventory that is measured using last-in first-out (“LIFO”) or the retail inventory method, but rather does apply to all other inventory, which includes inventory that is measured using first-in first-out or average cost. An entity should measure in scope inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using LIFO or the retail inventory method. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The amendments in this ASU should be applied prospectively. We adopted the amendments in this ASU effective January 1, 2017, and the initial adoption of the amendment in this ASU did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016‑09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share‑Based Payment Accounting . The amendments in this ASU simplify several aspects of the accounting for share‑based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. We adopted the amendments in this ASU effective January 1, 2017, and the initial adoption of the amendment in this ASU did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017‑04, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment . The amendments in this ASU simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under the amendments in this ASU, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value, which eliminates the current requirement to calculate a goodwill impairment charge by comparing the implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying amount. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The amendments in this ASU should be applied on a prospective basis. We adopted the amendments in this ASU effective January 1, 2017 and the initial adoption of the amendments in this ASU did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

Accounting Pronouncements Pending Adoption in Future Periods

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014‑09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , outlining a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenues arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015‑14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date , deferring the effective date of ASU No. 2014‑09 for all entities by one year. Further, in March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016‑08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) , clarifying the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations, in April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016‑10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing , clarifying the implementation guidance on identifying performance obligations in a contract and determining whether an entity’s promise to grant a license provides a customer with either a right to use the entity’s intellectual property (which is satisfied at a point in time) or a right to access the entity’s intellectual property (which is satisfied over time), in May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016‑12, Revenue from Customers (Topic 606): Narrow‑Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients , providing clarifications and practical expedients for certain narrow aspects in Topic 606, and in December 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016‑20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers . The amendments in these ASUs are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. The amendments in ASU No. 2014‑09, ASU No. 2016‑08, ASU No. 2016‑10, ASU No. 2016‑12 and ASU No. 2016‑20 should be applied retrospectively, and early application is permitted. We are currently performing the analysis identifying areas that will be impacted by the adoption of the amendments in ASU No. 2014‑09, ASU No. 2016‑08, ASU No. 2016‑10, ASU No. 2016‑12 and ASU No. 2016‑20 on our condensed consolidated financial statements. At this time, we believe the key impact of the standard will be on our accounting for revenues from intellectual property licensing contracts which is not a material revenue stream to our condensed consolidated financial statements. The standard will be adopted in our fiscal year 2018 and we have elected the modified retrospective approach as the transition method.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) . The amendments in this ASU will increase transparency and comparability among entities by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The amendments in this ASU will require lessees to recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early application of the amendments in this ASU is permitted for all entities. Reporting entities are required to recognize and measure leases under these amendments at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the amendments in this ASU on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments . The amendments in this ASU clarify and include specific guidance to address diversity in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The amendments in this ASU should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. We do not expect the adoption of the amendments in this ASU to have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory . The amendments in this ASU require entities to recognize the current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs, as opposed to deferring the recognition of the income tax consequences until the asset has been sold to an outside party. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2017, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted for all entities as of the beginning of an annual reporting period for which financial statements (interim or annual) have not been issued or made available for issuance. The amendments in this ASU should be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. We do not expect the adoption of the amendments in this ASU to have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016‑18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash . The amendments in this ASU require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning‑of‑period and end‑of‑period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim period within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The amendments in this ASU should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. We do not expect the adoption of the amendments in this ASU to have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017‑01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business . The amendments in this ASU clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. The amendments in this ASU should be applied prospectively on or after the effective date. No disclosures are required at transition. We do not expect the adoption of the amendments in this ASU to have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, Compensation—Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost . The amendments in this ASU require that an employer report the service cost component of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost in the same line items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside of income from operations. The amendments in this ASU also allow only the service cost component to be eligible for capitalization when applicable (for example, as a cost of internally manufactured inventory or a self-constructed asset). The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments in this ASU should be applied retrospectively for the presentation of the service cost component and the other components of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost in the income statement and prospectively, on and after the effective date, for the capitalization of the service cost component of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost in assets. The amendments in this ASU will impact the presentation of our condensed consolidated financial statements. Our current presentation of service cost components is consistent with the amendments in this ASU. Upon adoption of the amendments in this ASU, we expect to present the other components within other nonoperating income, whereas we currently present these within cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses.

3. INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined using LIFO, first-in first-out, and average cost methods for different components of inventory. Inventories consisted of the following (dollars in millions):


	March 31,		December 31,
	2017		2016
Raw materials and supplies	$	329	$	291
Work in progress		91		91
Finished goods		1,123		1,017
Total		1,543		1,399
LIFO reserves		(57)		(55)
Net inventories	$	1,486	$	1,344

For both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, approximately 9% of inventories were recorded using the LIFO cost method.

4. SEPARATION OF PIGMENTS AND ADDITIVES BUSINESS

We are in the process of separating our Pigments and Additives business. On October 28, 2016, Venator filed an initial Form 10 registration statement with the SEC as part of the process to separate our Pigments and Additives and Textile Effects businesses in a tax‑free spin-off. On January 17, 2017, we announced that we will retain our Textile Effects business and Venator amended the Form 10 registration statement. Most recently, on March 14, 2017, Venator filed a third amendment to the Form 10 registration statement.

We now intend to pursue an initial public offering of our Pigments and Additives business, although we plan to retain the ability to separate the business through a tax-free spin-off depending on market conditions. The initial public offering or spin is targeted for the summer of 2017.

In connection with this separation, we recorded business separation costs of $9 million and nil during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, within Corporate and other.

5. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

We evaluate our investments and transactions to identify variable interest entities for which we are the primary beneficiary. We hold a variable interest in the following joint ventures for which we are the primary beneficiary:

Rubicon LLC is our 50%-owned joint venture with Chemtura that manufactures products for our Polyurethanes and Performance Products segments. The structure of the joint venture is such that the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the joint venture to finance its activities without additional financial support. By virtue of the operating agreement with this joint venture, we purchase a majority of the output, absorb a majority of the operating costs and provide a majority of the additional funding.

Pacific Iron Products Sdn Bhd is our 50%-owned joint venture with Coogee Chemicals that manufactures products for our Pigments and Additives segment. In this joint venture, we supply all the raw materials through a fixed cost supply contract, operate the manufacturing facility and market the products of the joint venture to customers. Through a fixed price raw materials supply contract with the joint venture, we are exposed to risk related to the fluctuation of raw material pricing.

Arabian Amines Company is our 50%-owned joint venture with Zamil group that manufactures products for our Performance Products segment. As required in the operating agreement governing this joint venture, we purchase all of Arabian Amines Company’s production and sell it to our customers. Substantially all of the joint venture’s activities are conducted on our behalf.

Sasol‑Huntsman is our 50%-owned joint venture with Sasol that owns and operates a maleic anhydride facility in Moers, Germany. This joint venture manufactures products for our Performance Products segment. The joint venture uses our technology and expertise, and we bear a disproportionate amount of risk of loss due to a related‑party loan to Sasol‑Huntsman for which we bear the default risk.

Viance, LLC ("Viance") is our 50%-owned joint venture with Dow Chemical. Viance markets timber treatment products for our Pigments and Additives segment. The joint venture sources all of its products through a contract manufacturing arrangement at our Harrisburg, North Carolina facility, and we bear a disproportionate amount of working capital risk of loss due to the supply arrangement whereby we control manufacturing on Viance’s behalf.

Creditors of these entities have no recourse to our general credit. See “Note 7. Debt—Direct and Subsidiary Debt.” As the primary beneficiary of these variable interest entities at March 31, 2017, the joint ventures’ assets, liabilities and results of operations are included in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

2017 RESTRUCTURING ACTIVITIES

During the first quarter of 2017, we implemented the first phase of a restructuring program to improve competitiveness in our Textile Effects segment. In connection with this restructuring program, we recorded restructuring expense of $6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017 related primarily to workforce reductions. We expect to incur additional charges of approximately $8 million through the end of the third quarter of 2018.

In March 2015, we implemented a restructuring program in our color pigments business (the “Color Pigments Restructuring”). In connection with the Color Pigments Restructuring, we recorded restructuring expense of

Table of Contents

approximately $4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017. We expect to incur additional charges of approximately $7 million through the end of 2017.

In July 2016, we announced a plan to close our Pigments and Additives segment’s South African titanium dioxide manufacturing facility. As part of the program, we recorded restructuring expense of approximately $1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017. We expect to incur additional charges of approximately $4 million through the end of the third quarter of 2018.

In March 2017, we announced a plan to close the white end finishing and packaging operations of our titanium dioxide manufacturing facility at our Calais, France site. The announced plan follows the 2015 announcement of the closure of the black end manufacturing operations and would result in the closure of the entire facility. In connection with this closure, we recorded restructuring expense of $22 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017. We recorded $8 million of accelerated depreciation on the remaining long‑lived assets associated with this manufacturing facility during 2016. We expect to incur additional charges of approximately $41 million through the end of 2021.

2016 RESTRUCTURING ACTIVITIES

In December 2014, we implemented a comprehensive restructuring program to improve the global competitiveness of our Pigments and Additives segment. As part of the program, we are reducing our workforce by approximately 900 positions. In connection with this restructuring program, we recorded restructuring expense of $3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2016.

In February 2015, we announced a plan to close the black end manufacturing operations and ancillary activities at our Calais, France site, which will reduce our titanium dioxide capacity by approximately 100 kilotons, or 13% of our European titanium dioxide capacity. In connection with this closure, we recorded restructuring expense of $1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2016.

In connection with the Color Pigments Restructuring, we recorded restructuring expense of approximately $3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2016.

In connection with planned restructuring activities, our Pigments and Additives segment recorded accelerated depreciation as restructuring expense of $4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

DIRECT AND SUBSIDIARY DEBT

Huntsman Corporation’s direct debt and guarantee obligations consist of a guarantee of certain indebtedness incurred from time to time to finance certain insurance premiums. Substantially all of our other debt, including the facilities described below, has been incurred by our subsidiaries (primarily Huntsman International). Huntsman Corporation is not a guarantor of such subsidiary debt.

Certain of our subsidiaries are designated as nonguarantor subsidiaries (“Nonguarantors”) and have third‑party debt agreements. These debt agreements contain certain restrictions with regard to dividends, distributions, loans or advances. In certain circumstances, the consent of a third party would be required prior to the transfer of any cash or assets from these subsidiaries to us.

Debt Issuance Costs

We record debt issuance costs related to a debt liability on the balance sheet as a reduction in the face amount of that debt liability. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the amount of debt issuance costs directly reducing the debt liability was $55 million and $57 million, respectively. We record the amortization of debt issuance costs as interest expense.

Senior Credit Facilities

As of March 31, 2017, our senior credit facilities (“Senior Credit Facilities”) consisted of our Revolving Facility, our 2021 Term Loan B and our 2023 Term Loan as follows: (dollars in millions):


						Unamortized
						Discounts and
	Committed		Principal			Debt Issuance			Carrying
Facility	Amount		Outstanding			Costs			Value			Interest Rate(3)	Maturity
Revolving Facility	$	650	$	—	(1)	$	—	(1)	$	—	(1)	USD LIBOR plus 2.75%	2021
2015 Extended Term Loan B		N/A		306			(1)			305		USD LIBOR plus 3.00%	2019
2021 Term Loan B		N/A		348			(11)			337		USD LIBOR plus 2.75%(2)	2021
2023 Term Loan B		N/A		1,368			(45)			1,323		USD LIBOR plus 3.00%(2)	2023

(1)

We had no borrowings outstanding under our Revolving Facility; we had approximately $16 million (U.S. dollar equivalents) of letters of credit and bank guarantees issued and outstanding under our Revolving Facility.

(2)

The 2021 Term Loan B and the 2023 Term Loan B are subject to a 0.75% LIBOR floor.

(3)

The applicable interest rate of the Revolving Facility is subject to certain secured leverage ratio thresholds. As of March 31, 2017, the weighted average interest rate on our outstanding balances under the Senior Credit Facilities was approximately 4%.

Table of Contents

Our obligations under the Senior Credit Facilities are guaranteed by substantially all of our domestic subsidiaries and certain of our foreign subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantors”), and are secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of our domestic property, plant and equipment, the stock of all of our material domestic subsidiaries and certain foreign subsidiaries, and pledges of intercompany notes between certain of our subsidiaries.

On April 25, 2017, we made an early prepayment of $100 million on our 2015 Extended Term Loan B from existing cash.

A/R Programs

Our U.S. accounts receivable securitization program (“U.S. A/R Program”) and our European accounts receivable securitization program (“EU A/R Program” and collectively with the U.S. A/R Program, “A/R Programs”) are structured so that we transfer certain of our trade receivables to the U.S. special purpose entity (“U.S. SPE”) and the European special purpose entity (“EU SPE”) in transactions intended to be true sales or true contributions. The receivables collateralize debt incurred by the U.S. SPE and the EU SPE. Information regarding our A/R Programs as of March 31, 2017 was as follows (monetary amounts in millions):


		Maximum Funding		Amount
Facility	Maturity	Availability(1)		Outstanding			Interest Rate(2)
U.S. A/R Program	March 2018	$	250	$	90	(3)	Applicable rate plus 0.95%
EU A/R Program	March 2018	€	225	€	114
			(approximately $242)		(approximately $123)		Applicable rate plus 1.10%

(1)

The amount of actual availability under our A/R Programs may be lower based on the level of eligible receivables sold, changes in the credit ratings of our customers, customer concentration levels and certain characteristics of the accounts receivable being transferred, as defined in the applicable agreements.

(2)

The applicable rate for our U.S. A/R Program is defined by the lender as either USD LIBOR or CP rate. The applicable rate for our EU A/R Program is either GBP LIBOR, USD LIBOR or EURIBOR. In addition, the U.S. SPE and the EU SPE are obligated to pay unused commitment fees to the lenders based on the amount of each lender’s commitment.

(3)

As of March 31, 2017, we had approximately $7 million (U.S. dollar equivalents) of letters of credit issued and outstanding under our U.S. A/R Program.

On April 21, 2017, we entered into amendments to our A/R Programs that, among other things, extend the scheduled termination dates to April 2020. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, $460 million and $437 million, respectively, of accounts receivable were pledged as collateral under our A/R Programs.

Note Payable from Huntsman International to Huntsman Corporation

As of March 31, 2017, we had a loan of $811 million to our subsidiary, Huntsman International (the “Intercompany Note”). The Intercompany Note is unsecured and $100 million of the outstanding amount is classified as current as of March 31, 2017 on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2017, under the terms of the Intercompany Note, Huntsman International promises to pay us interest on the unpaid principal amount at a rate per annum based on the previous monthly average borrowing rate obtained under our U.S. A/R Program, less 10 basis points (provided that the rate shall not exceed an amount that is 25 basis points less than the monthly average borrowing rate obtained for the U.S. LIBOR-based borrowings under our Revolving Facility).

COMPLIANCE WITH COVENANTS

We believe that we are in compliance with the covenants contained in the agreements governing our material debt instruments, including our Senior Credit Facilities, our A/R Programs and our notes.

Our material financing arrangements contain certain covenants with which we must comply. A failure to comply with a covenant could result in a default under a financing arrangement unless we obtained an appropriate waiver or forbearance (as to which we can provide no assurance). A default under these material financing arrangements generally allows debt holders the option to declare the underlying debt obligations immediately due and payable.

Table of Contents

Furthermore, certain of our material financing arrangements contain cross-default and cross-acceleration provisions under which a failure to comply with the covenants in one financing arrangement may result in an event of default under another financing arrangement.

Our Senior Credit Facilities are subject to a single financial covenant (the “Leverage Covenant”), which applies only to the Revolving Facility and is calculated at the Huntsman International level. The Leverage Covenant is applicable only if borrowings, letters of credit or guarantees are outstanding under the Revolving Facility (cash collateralized letters of credit or guarantees are not deemed outstanding). The Leverage Covenant is a net senior secured leverage ratio covenant, which requires that Huntsman International’s ratio of senior secured debt to EBITDA (as defined in the applicable agreement) is not more than 3.75 to 1.

If in the future Huntsman International fails to comply with the Leverage Covenant, then we may not have access to liquidity under our Revolving Facility. If Huntsman International failed to comply with the Leverage Covenant at a time when we had uncollateralized loans or letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Facility, Huntsman International would be in default under the Senior Credit Facilities, and, unless Huntsman International obtained a waiver or forbearance with respect to such default (as to which we can provide no assurance), Huntsman International could be required to pay off the balance of the Senior Credit Facilities in full, and we may not have further access to such facilities.

The agreements governing our A/R Programs also contain certain receivable performance metrics. Any material failure to meet the applicable A/R Programs’ metrics in the future could lead to an early termination event under the A/R Programs, which could require us to cease our use of such facilities, prohibiting us from additional borrowings against our receivables or, at the discretion of the lenders, requiring that we repay the A/R Programs in full. An early termination event under the A/R Programs would also constitute an event of default under our Senior Credit Facilities, which could require us to pay off the balance of the Senior Credit Facilities in full and could result in the loss of our Senior Credit Facilities.

8. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

We are exposed to market risks, such as changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and commodity pricing risks. From time to time, we enter into transactions, including transactions involving derivative instruments, to manage certain of these exposures.

All derivatives, whether designated as hedging relationships or not, are recorded on our balance sheet at fair value. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative and the hedged items are recognized in earnings. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss, to the extent effective, and will be recognized in the income statement when the hedged item affects earnings. To the extent applicable, we perform effectiveness assessments in order to use hedge accounting at each reporting period. For a derivative that does not qualify as a hedge, changes in fair value are recognized in earnings.

We also hedge our net investment in certain European operations. Changes in the fair value of the hedge in the net investment of certain European operations are recorded as an unrealized currency translation adjustment in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Our revenues and expenses are denominated in various foreign currencies, and our cash flows and earnings are thus subject to fluctuations due to exchange rate variations. From time to time, we may enter into foreign currency derivative instruments to minimize the short-term impact of movements in foreign currency rates. Where practicable, we generally net multicurrency cash balances among our subsidiaries to help reduce exposure to foreign currency exchange rates. Certain other exposures may be managed from time to time through financial market transactions, principally through the purchase of spot or forward foreign exchange contracts (generally with maturities of one year or less). We do not hedge our foreign currency exposures in a manner that would eliminate the effect of changes in exchange rates on our cash flows and earnings. As of March 31, 2017, we had approximately $137 million in notional amount (in U.S. dollar equivalents) outstanding in forward foreign currency contracts.

Table of Contents

2017, we had $100 million notional value of interest rate hedges with a fixed rate of 2.5%. These swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and the effective portion of the changes in the fair value of the swaps are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). The fair value of these hedges on March 31, 2017 was nil and they will expire in April 2017.

Beginning in 2009, Arabian Amines Company entered into a 12-year floating to fixed interest rate contract providing for a receipt of LIBOR interest payments for a fixed payment of 5.02%. In connection with the consolidation of Arabian Amines Company as of July 1, 2010, the interest rate contract is now included in our consolidated results. See “Note 5. Variable Interest Entities.” The notional amount of the swap as of March 31, 2017 was $18 million, and the interest rate contract is not designated as a cash flow hedge. As of March 31, 2017, the fair value of the swap was $1 million and was recorded in noncurrent liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. For each of the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we recorded a reduction of interest expense of nil due to changes in fair value of the swap.

In November 2014, we entered into two five year cross-currency interest rate contracts and one eight year cross-currency interest rate contract to swap an aggregate notional $200 million for an aggregate notional €161 million. This swap is designated as a hedge of net investment for financial reporting purposes. Under the cross-currency interest rate contract, we will receive fixed U.S. dollar payments of $5 million semiannually on May 15 and November 15 (equivalent to an annual rate of 5.125%) and make interest payments of approximately €3 million (equivalent to an annual rate of approximately 3.6%). As of March 31, 2017, the fair value of this swap was $29 million and was recorded in noncurrent assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

A portion of our debt is denominated in euros. We also finance certain of our non-U.S. subsidiaries with intercompany loans that are, in many cases, denominated in currencies other than the entities’ functional currency. We manage the net foreign currency exposure created by this debt through various means, including cross-currency swaps, the designation of certain intercompany loans as permanent loans because they are not expected to be repaid in the foreseeable future and the designation of certain debt and swaps as net investment hedges.

Foreign currency transaction gains and losses on intercompany loans that are not designated as permanent loans are recorded in earnings. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses on intercompany loans that are designated as permanent loans are recorded in other comprehensive income on our condensed statements of comprehensive income. From time to time, we review such designation of intercompany loans.

We review our non-U.S. dollar denominated debt and derivative instruments to determine the appropriate amounts designated as hedges. As of March 31, 2017, we have designated approximately €606 million (approximately $653 million) of euro-denominated debt and cross-currency interest rate contracts as a hedge of our net investment. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the amount of loss recognized on the hedge of our net investment was $15 million and was recorded in other comprehensive income on our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

9. FAIR VALUE

The fair values of financial instruments were as follows (dollars in millions):


	March 31, 2017				December 31, 2016
	Carrying		Estimated		Carrying		Estimated

The carrying amounts reported in our condensed consolidated balance sheets of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The fair values of non-qualified employee benefit plan investments and investments in equity securities are obtained through market observable pricing using prevailing market prices. The estimated fair values of our long-term debt are based on quoted market prices for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market (Level 1).

Table of Contents

The fair value estimates presented herein are based on pertinent information available to management as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The estimated fair value amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since March 31, 2017 and current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.

The income approach is used to calculate the fair value of these instruments. Fair value represents the present value of estimated future cash flows, calculated using relevant interest rates, exchange rates, and yield curves at stated intervals. There were no material changes to the valuation methods or assumptions used to determine the fair value during the current period.

In November 2014, we entered into two five year cross-currency interest rate contracts and one eight year cross-currency interest rate contract. These instruments have been categorized by us as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy due to unobservable inputs associated with the credit valuation adjustment, which we deemed to be significant inputs to the overall measurement of fair value at inception.

We also have assets that under certain conditions are subject to measurement at fair value on a non‑recurring basis. These assets include property, plant and equipment and those associated with acquired businesses, including goodwill and intangible assets. For these assets, measurement at fair value in periods subsequent to their initial recognition is applicable if one or more is determined to be impaired. During each of the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we recorded charges of nil for the impairment of long‑lived assets.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

LEGAL MATTERS

Antitrust Matters

We were named as a defendant in consolidated class action civil antitrust suits filed on February 9 and 12, 2010 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland alleging that we, our co-defendants and other alleged co-conspirators, conspired to fix prices of titanium dioxide sold in the U.S. between at least March 1, 2002 and the present. The other defendants named in this matter were DuPont, Kronos and Cristal (formerly Millennium). On August 28, 2012, the court certified a class consisting of all U.S. customers who purchased titanium dioxide directly from the defendants since February 1, 2003 (the “Direct Purchasers”). On December 13, 2013, we and all other defendants settled the Direct Purchasers litigation and the court approved the settlement. We paid the settlement in an amount immaterial to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

On November 22, 2013, we were named as a defendant in a civil antitrust suit filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota brought by a Direct Purchaser who opted out of the Direct Purchasers class litigation (the “Opt-Out Litigation”). On April 21, 2014, the court severed the claims against us from the other defendants sued and ordered our case transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas. Subsequently, Kronos, another defendant, was also severed from the Minnesota case and claims against it were transferred and consolidated for trial with our case in the Southern District of Texas. On February 26, 2016, we reached an agreement to settle the Opt-Out Litigation and subsequently paid the settlement in an amount immaterial to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

We were also named as a defendant in a class action civil antitrust suit filed on March 15, 2013 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California by the purchasers of products made from titanium dioxide (the “Indirect Purchasers”) making essentially the same allegations as did the Direct Purchasers. On October 14, 2014, plaintiffs filed their Second Amended Class Action Complaint narrowing the class of plaintiffs to those merchants and consumers of architectural coatings containing titanium dioxide. On August 11, 2015, the court granted our motion to dismiss the Indirect Purchasers litigation with leave to amend the complaint. A Third Amended Class Action Complaint was filed on September 29, 2015 further limiting the class to consumers of architectural paints. Plaintiffs have raised state antitrust claims under the laws of 15 states, consumer protection claims under the laws of nine states, and unjust enrichment claims under the laws of 16 states. On November 4, 2015, we and our co-defendants filed another motion to dismiss. On June 13, 2016, the court substantially denied the motion to dismiss except as to consumer protection claims in one state. The parties are presently negotiating a settlement for an amount that would not be material to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

On August 23, 2016, we were named as a defendant in a fourth civil antitrust suit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California by an Indirect Purchaser, Home Depot. Home Depot is an Indirect Purchaser primarily through paints it purchasers from various manufacturers. Home Depot makes the same claims as the Direct and Indirect Purchasers. On January 13, 2017, we filed a motion to dismiss the Home Depot case, which remains pending. We do not expect this matter to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

The plaintiffs in the Indirect Purchasers claims seek to recover injunctive relief, treble damages or the maximum damages allowed by state law, costs of suit and attorneys’ fees. We are not aware of any illegal conduct by us or any of our employees.

Product Delivery Claim

We have been notified by a customer of potential claims related to our alleged delivery of a different product than the one the customer had ordered. Our customer claims that it was unaware that the different product had been delivered until after that product had been used to manufacture materials which were subsequently sold. Originally, the customer stated that it had been notified of claims by its customers of up to an aggregate of €153 million (approximately $165 million) relating to this matter and claimed that we may be responsible for all or a portion of these potential claims. Our customer has since resolved some of these claims and the aggregate amount of the current claims is now approximately €113 million (approximately $122 million). Based on the facts currently available, we believe that we are insured for any liability we may ultimately have in excess of $10 million. However, no assurance can be given regarding

Table of Contents

our ultimate liability or costs. We believe our range of possible loss in this matter is between €0 and €113 million (approximately $122 million), and we have made no accrual with respect to this matter.

Indemnification Matters

On July 3, 2012, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (“the Banks”) demanded that we indemnify them for claims brought against them by certain MatlinPatterson entities that were formerly our stockholders (“MatlinPatterson”) in litigation filed by MatlinPatterson on June 19, 2012 in the 9th District Court in Montgomery County, Texas (the “Texas Litigation”). We denied the Banks’ indemnification demand for the Texas Litigation. These claims allegedly arose from the failed acquisition by and merger with Hexion. The Texas Litigation was dismissed, which was upheld by the Ninth Court of Appeals and the Texas Supreme Court denied review by final order entered January 7, 2016.

On July 14, 2014, the Banks demanded that we indemnify them for additional claims brought against them by certain other former Company stockholders in litigation filed June 14, 2014 in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin (the “Wisconsin Litigation”). We denied the Banks’ indemnification demand for the Wisconsin Litigation and have made no accrual with respect to this matter. The stockholders in the Wisconsin Litigation have made essentially the same factual allegations as MatlinPatterson made in the Texas Litigation and, additionally, have named Apollo Global Management LLC and Apollo Management Holdings, L.P. as defendants. Stockholder plaintiffs in the Wisconsin Litigation assert claims for misrepresentation and conspiracy to defraud. On June 30, 2016, the plaintiffs voluntarily dismissed the Apollo defendants and on December 5, 2016, the court dismissed Deutsche Bank for lack of personal jurisdiction, but denied Credit Suisse's motion to dismiss. Subsequently, Credit Suisse asked the court to reconsider its decision or certify its judgment to the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals for an immediate appeal, which remains pending.

Other Proceedings

We are a party to various other proceedings instituted by private plaintiffs, governmental authorities and others arising under provisions of applicable laws, including various environmental, products liability and other laws. Except as otherwise disclosed in this report, we do not believe that the outcome of any of these matters will have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

14. ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH AND SAFETY MATTERS

EHS CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

We may incur future costs for capital improvements and general compliance under environmental, health and safety (“EHS”) laws, including costs to acquire, maintain and repair pollution control equipment. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, our capital expenditures for EHS matters totaled $7 million and $11 million, respectively. Because capital expenditures for these matters are subject to evolving regulatory requirements and depend, in part, on the timing, promulgation and enforcement of specific requirements, our capital expenditures for EHS matters have varied significantly from year to year and we cannot provide assurance that our recent expenditures are indicative of future amounts we may spend related to EHS and other applicable laws.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESERVES

We have accrued liabilities relating to anticipated environmental cleanup obligations, site reclamation and closure costs and known penalties. Liabilities are recorded when potential liabilities are either known or considered probable and can be reasonably estimated. Our liability estimates are calculated using present value techniques as appropriate and are based upon requirements placed upon us by regulators, available facts, existing technology and past experience. The environmental liabilities do not include amounts recorded as asset retirement obligations. We had accrued $35 million and $34 million for environmental liabilities as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Of these amounts, $7 million was classified as accrued liabilities in each of our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and $28 million and $27 million were classified as other noncurrent liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets for March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. In certain cases, our remediation liabilities may be payable over periods of up to 30 years. We may incur

Table of Contents

losses for environmental remediation in excess of the amounts accrued; however, we are not able to estimate the amount or range of such potential excess.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act ("CERCLA") and similar state laws, a current or former owner or operator of real property in the U.S. may be liable for remediation costs regardless of whether the release or disposal of hazardous substances was in compliance with law at the time it occurred, and a current owner or operator may be liable regardless of whether it owned or operated the facility at the time of the release. Outside the U.S., analogous contaminated property laws, such as those in effect in France and Australia, can hold past owners and/or operators liable for remediation at former facilities. Currently, there are approximately six former facilities or third-party sites in the U.S. for which we have been notified of potential claims against us for cleanup liabilities, including, but not limited to, sites listed under CERCLA. Based on current information and past experiences at other CERCLA sites, we do not expect these third-party claims to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act ("RCRA") in the U.S. and similar state laws, we may be required to remediate contamination originating from our properties as a condition to our hazardous waste permit. Some of our manufacturing sites have an extended history of industrial chemical manufacturing and use, including on-site waste disposal. We are aware of soil, groundwater or surface contamination from past operations at some of our sites, and we may find contamination at other sites in the future. For example, our Port Neches, Texas, and Geismar, Louisiana, facilities are the subject of ongoing remediation requirements imposed under RCRA. Similar laws exist in a number of locations in which we currently operate, or previously operated, manufacturing facilities, such as Australia, India, France, Hungary and Italy.

West Footscray Remediation

By letter dated March 7, 2006, our former Base Chemicals and Polymers facility in West Footscray, Australia was issued a cleanup notice by the Environmental Protection Authority Victoria ("EPA Victoria") due to concerns about soil and groundwater contamination emanating from the site. On August 23, 2010, EPA Victoria revoked a second cleanup notice and issued a revised notice that included a requirement for financial assurance for the remediation. As of March 31, 2017, we had an accrued liability of approximately $15 million related to estimated environmental remediation costs at this site. We can provide no assurance that the authority will not seek to institute additional requirements for the site or that additional costs will not be required for the cleanup.

North Maybe Mine Remediation

The North Maybe Canyon Mine site is a CERCLA site and involves a former phosphorous mine near Soda Springs, Idaho, which is believed to have been operated by several companies, including a predecessor company to us. In 2004, the U.S. Forest Service notified us that we are a CERCLA potentially responsible party (“PRP”) for contamination originating from the site. In February 2010, we and Wells Cargo (another PRP) agreed to conduct a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study of a portion of the site and are currently engaged in that process. At this time, we are unable to reasonably estimate our potential liabilities at this site.

Port Neches Flaring Matter

As part of the Environmental Protection Agency’s (the “EPA”) national enforcement initiative on flaring operations and by letter dated October 12, 2012, the U.S. Department of Justice (the "DOJ") notified us that we were in violation of the Clear Air Act (“CAA”) based on our response to a 2010 CAA Section 114 Information Request. The EPA has used the enforcement initiative to bring similar actions against refiners and other chemical manufacturers and has sought to collect civil penalties in excess of $100,000. Specifically, the EPA alleged violations at our Port Neches, Texas facility from 2007-2012 for flare operations not consistent with good pollution control practice and not in compliance with certain flare-related regulations. As a result of these findings, the EPA referred this matter to the DOJ. We provided a formal response to the DOJ and the EPA with a supplemental data submission on April 29, 2013. We have been engaged in discussions with the DOJ and the EPA regarding these alleged violations. We are currently unable to determine the likelihood or magnitude of any potential penalty or injunctive relief that may be incurred in resolving this matter.

15. STOCK‑BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

On May 5, 2016, our stockholders approved a new Huntsman Corporation 2016 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2016 Stock Incentive Plan”), which reserved 8.2 million shares for issuance. The Huntsman Corporation Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the “Prior Plan”), remains in effect for outstanding awards granted pursuant to the Prior Plan, but no further awards may be granted under the Prior Plan. Under the 2016 Stock Incentive Plan we may grant nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, phantom stock, performance share units and other stock-based awards to our employees, directors and consultants and to employees and consultants of our subsidiaries, provided that incentive stock options may be granted solely to employees. The terms of the grants under both the 2016 Stock Incentive Plan and the Prior Plan are fixed at the grant date. As of March 31, 2017, we were authorized to grant up to 8.2 million shares under the 2016 Stock Incentive Plan. As of March 31, 2017, we had approximately 8 million shares remaining under the 2016 Stock Incentive Plan available for grant. Option awards have a maximum contractual term of 10 years and generally must have an exercise price at least equal to the market price of our common stock on the date the option award is granted. Outstanding stock-based awards generally vest annually over a three-year period.

The compensation cost from continuing operations under the 2016 Stock Incentive Plan and the Prior Plan for our Company and Huntsman International were as follows (dollars in millions):


	Three months
	ended
	March 31,
	2017		2016
Huntsman Corporation compensation cost	$	10	$	8
Huntsman International compensation cost		9		7

The total income tax benefit recognized in the statements of operations for us and Huntsman International for stock-based compensation arrangements was $2 million each for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

STOCK OPTIONS

The fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black‑Scholes valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of our common stock through the grant date. The expected term of options granted was estimated based on the contractual term of the instruments and employees’ expected exercise and post‑vesting employment termination behavior. The risk‑free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The assumptions noted below represent the weighted average of the assumptions utilized for stock options granted during the periods.


	Three months
	ended
	March 31,
	2017			2016
Dividend yield	2.4	%	5.6		%
Expected volatility	56.9	%	57.9		%
Risk-free interest rate	2.0	%	1.4		%
Expected life of stock options granted during the period	5.9	years	5.9		years

Table of Contents

A summary of stock option activity under the 2016 Stock Incentive Plan and the Prior Plan as of March 31, 2017 and changes during the three months then ended is presented below:


				Weighted
		Weighted		Average
		Average		Remaining	Aggregate
		Exercise		Contractual	Intrinsic
Option Awards	Shares	Price		Term	Value
	(in thousands)			(years)	(in millions)
Outstanding at January 1, 2017	11,245	$	13.37
Granted	989		21.01
Exercised	(1,633)		18.65
Forfeited	(40)		19.30
Outstanding at March 31, 2017	10,561		13.25	6.3	$	119
Exercisable at March 31, 2017	7,258		12.94	5.0		84

The weighted‑average grant‑date fair value of stock options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $9.25 per option. As of March 31, 2017, there was $16 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock option arrangements granted under the 2016 Stock Incentive Plan and the Prior Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.3 years.

The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was approximately $5 million and nil, respectively. Cash received from stock options exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was approximately $17 million and nil, respectively. The cash tax benefit from stock options exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was approximately $1 million and nil, respectively.

NONVESTED SHARES

Nonvested shares granted under the 2016 Stock Incentive Plan and the Prior Plan consist of restricted stock and performance share unit awards, which are accounted for as equity awards, and phantom stock, which is accounted for as a liability award because it can be settled in either stock or cash.

The fair value of each performance share unit award is estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model that uses various assumptions, including an expected volatility rate and a risk-free interest rate. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the weighted-average expected volatility rate was 45.0% and 39.3%, respectively, and the weighted average risk-free interest rate was 1.5% and 0.9%, respectively. For the performance share unit awards granted in the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the number of shares earned varies based upon the Company achieving certain performance criteria over a three-year performance period.

As of March 31, 2017, a total of 480,604 restricted stock units were vested but not yet issued, of which 25,704 vested during the three months ended March 31, 2017. These shares have not been reflected as vested shares in this table because, in accordance with the restricted stock unit agreements, shares of common stock are not issued for vested restricted stock units until termination of employment.

As of March 31, 2017, there was $47 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share compensation arrangements granted under the 2016 Stock Incentive Plan and the Prior Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted‑average period of approximately 2.2 years. The value of share awards that vested during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was $20 million and $15 million, respectively.

16. INCOME TAXES

We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting purposes. We evaluate deferred tax assets to determine whether it is more likely than not that they will be realized. Valuation allowances are reviewed on an individual tax jurisdiction basis to analyze whether there is sufficient positive or negative evidence to support a change in judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax assets. These conclusions require significant judgment. In evaluating the objective evidence that historical results provide, we consider the cyclicality of our businesses and cumulative income or losses during the applicable period. Cumulative losses incurred over the applicable period limits our ability to consider other subjective evidence such as our projections for the future. Changes in expected future income in applicable jurisdictions could affect the realization of deferred tax assets in those jurisdictions.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we released a valuation allowance of $6 million on certain net deferred assets of our Polyurethanes business in Italy. On March 1, 2017, we demerged the Italian legal entity containing our Polyurethanes business from our combined Italian tax group. The historical and expected continued profitability of that Polyurethanes business resulted in the release of the associated valuation allowance.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, for unrecognized tax benefits that impact tax expense, we recorded a net increase in unrecognized tax benefits and a corresponding income tax expense of $2 million and a net decrease in unrecognized benefits and a corresponding income tax benefit of $1 million, respectively. Additional increases and decreases in unrecognized tax benefits were offset by cash settlements or decreases in net deferred tax assets and, therefore, did not affect income tax expense.

Huntsman Corporation

We recorded income tax expense of $23 million and $27 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Our tax expense is significantly affected by the mix of income and losses in the tax jurisdictions in which we operate, as impacted by the presence of valuation allowances in certain tax jurisdictions. Notably, we continue to earn a significant portion of our pre‑tax income in the United States with an approximate 35% federal and state blended effective tax rate. Higher earnings in countries with valuation allowances and the release of the Italy valuation allowance resulted in a lower effective tax rate in the first quarter of 2017.

Huntsman International

Huntsman International recorded income tax expense of $23 million and $27 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Our tax expense is significantly affected by the mix of income and losses in the tax jurisdictions in which we operate, as impacted by the presence of valuation allowances in certain tax jurisdictions. Notably, we continue to earn a significant portion of our pre‑tax income in the United States with an approximate 35% federal and state blended effective tax rate. Higher earnings in countries with valuation allowances and the release of the Italy valuation allowance resulted in a lower effective tax rate in the first quarter of 2017.

17. NET INCOME PER SHARE

Basic income per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income attributable to Huntsman Corporation common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share reflects all potential dilutive common shares outstanding during the period and is computed by dividing net income available to Huntsman Corporation common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period increased by the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding as dilutive securities.

Basic and diluted income per share is determined using the following information (in millions):

Dilutive shares:

Total weighted average shares outstanding, including dilutive shares		242.5		237.9

Additional stock‑based awards of 2.2 million and 11.8 million weighted average equivalent shares of stock were outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. However, these stock‑based awards were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 because the effect would be anti‑dilutive.

18. OPERATING SEGMENT INFORMATION

We derive our revenues, earnings and cash flows from the manufacture and sale of a wide variety of differentiated and commodity chemical products. We have five operating segments, which are also our reportable segments: Polyurethanes, Performance Products, Advanced Materials, Textile Effects and Pigments and Additives. We have organized our business and derived our operating segments around differences in product lines.

The major products of each reportable operating segment are as follows:

Segment		Products
Polyurethanes		MDI, PO, polyols, PG, TPU, aniline and MTBE
Performance Products		amines, surfactants, LAB, maleic anhydride, other performance chemicals, EG, olefins and technology licenses
Advanced Materials		basic liquid and solid epoxy resins; specialty resin compounds; cross‑linking, matting and curing agents; epoxy, acrylic and polyurethane‑based formulations
Textile Effects		textile chemicals, dyes and digital inks
Pigments and Additives		titanium dioxide, functional additives, color pigments, timber treatment and water treatment chemicals

Sales between segments are generally recognized at external market prices and are eliminated in consolidation. Adjusted EBITDA is presented as a measure of the financial performance of our global business units and for reporting the results of our operating segments. The adjusted EBITDA of operating segments excludes items that principally apply

Beginning in the second quarter of 2016, we use segment adjusted EBITDA as the measure of each segment’s profit or loss. We believe that segment adjusted EBITDA more accurately reflects what management uses to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and assess their financial performance. We have recast the measure of each segment’s profit or loss in the prior periods disclosed to reflect segment adjusted EBITDA.

Segment adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income of Huntsman Corporation or Huntsman International, as appropriate, before interest, income tax, depreciation and amortization, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and certain Corporate and other items, as well as eliminating the following adjustments: (a) business acquisition and integration expenses; (b) EBITDA from discontinued operations; (c) certain legal settlements and related expenses; (d) amortization of pension and postretirement actuarial losses; (e) net plant incident costs; (f) restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs; and (g) business separation expenses.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

Business

We operate in five segments: Polyurethanes, Performance Products, Advanced Materials, Textile Effects and Pigments and Additives. Our products comprise a broad range of chemicals and formulations, which we market globally to a diversified group of consumer and industrial customers. Our products are used in a wide range of applications, including those in the adhesives, aerospace, automotive, construction products, personal care and hygiene, durable and non‑durable consumer products, digital inks, electronics, medical, packaging, paints and coatings, power generation, refining, synthetic fiber, textile chemicals and dye industries. We are a leading global producer in many of our key product lines, including MDI, amines, surfactants, maleic anhydride, epoxy‑based polymer formulations, textile chemicals, dyes, titanium dioxide and color pigments. Our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 were $2,469 million and $2,355 million, respectively.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Separation of our Pigments and Additives Business

We are in the process of separating our Pigments and Additives business. On March 14, 2017, Venator filed a third amendment to the Form 10 registration statement with the SEC as part of this process. We now intend to pursue an initial public offering of our Pigments and Additives business, although we plan to retain the ability to separate the business through a tax-free spin-off depending on market conditions. The separation is targeted for the summer of 2017. For more information, see “Note 4. Separation of Pigments and Additives Business” to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Closure of Calais, France Manufacturing Facility

Pori Fire

Amendments to Accounts Receivable Securitization Programs

Early Prepayment of Debt

On April 25, 2017, we made an early prepayment of $100 million on our 2015 Extended Term Loan B from existing cash. For further information, see “Note 7. Direct and Subsidiary Debt—Senior Credit Facilities” to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

OUTLOOK

We expect the following factors to impact our operating segments:

Polyurethanes :

Industry supply and demand remains favorable for MDI

MTBE margins improve

Focused on growing the downstream businesses

Planned maintenance at our Rotterdam facility during the first half of 2017

Performance Products :

Overall margins continue to improve

Lower margins in upstream intermediates

Planned ethylene oxide maintenance during second half of 2017

Advanced Materials :

Stable aerospace market representing more than one third of segment earnings

Improving price and mix

Textile Effects :

Year-over-year growth above GDP

Pigments and Additives :

Increasing TiO2 selling prices

Stable complementary additives business

Established a process with insurer that provides timely advance payments for the reconstruction of Pori manufacturing facility and recovery of business interruption losses

In 2017, we expect to spend approximately $380 million on capital expenditures, net of reimbursements .

We expect our long term adjusted effective tax rate will be approximately 30%. We believe our full year 2017 adjusted effective tax rate will be approximately 25% to 30%.

NM—Not meaningful

(1)

Our management uses adjusted EBITDA to assess financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income of Huntsman Corporation or Huntsman International, as appropriate, before interest, income tax, depreciation and amortization, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and certain Corporate and other items, as well as eliminating the following adjustments: (a) business acquisition and integration expenses; (b) EBITDA from discontinued operations; (c) certain legal settlements and related expenses; (d) amortization of pension and postretirement actuarial losses; (e) net plant incident costs; (f) restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs; and (g) business separation expenses. We believe that net income of Huntsman Corporation or Huntsman International, as appropriate, is the performance measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP that is most directly comparable to adjusted EBITDA.

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. There are material limitations associated with our use of these measures because they do not reflect overall financial performance, including the effects of interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Our management compensates for the limitations of these measures by using them as a supplement to GAAP results.

(2)

Adjusted net income is computed by eliminating the after‑tax amounts related to the following from net income attributable to Huntsman Corporation or Huntsman International, as appropriate: (a) business acquisition and integration expenses; (b) loss from discontinued operations; (c) certain legal settlements and related expenses; (d) amortization of pension and postretirement actuarial losses; (e) net plant incident costs; (f) restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs; and (g) business separation expenses. Basic adjusted net income per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Adjusted diluted net income per share reflects all potential dilutive common shares outstanding during the period and is computed by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period increased by the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding as dilutive securities. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share amounts are presented solely as supplemental information.

(3)

The income tax impacts, if any, of each adjusting item represent a ratable allocation of the total difference between the unadjusted tax expense and the total adjusted tax expense, computed without consideration of any adjusting items using a with and without approach. We do not adjust for changes in tax valuation allowances because we do not believe it provides more meaningful information than is provided under GAAP.

(4)

Capital expenditures, net of reimbursements, represent cash paid for capital expenditures less payments received as reimbursements from customers and joint venture partners. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and

Table of Contents

2016, capital expenditures of $74 million and $99 million, respectively, were reimbursed in part by $55 million and nil, respectively.

(5)

Our management uses free cash flow to assess financial performance. Free cash flow is not a defined term under U.S. GAAP, and it should not be inferred that the entire free cash flow amount is available for discretionary expenditures. The Company defines free cash flow as cash flows provided by operating activities and used in investing activities, excluding acquisition/disposition activities and including non-recurring separation costs. Free cash flow is typically derived directly from the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of cash flows; however, it may be adjusted for items that affect comparability between periods.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 Compared with Three Months Ended March 31, 2016

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, net income attributable to Huntsman Corporation was $76 million on revenues of $2,469 million, compared with net income attributable to Huntsman Corporation of $56 million on revenues of $2,355 million for the same period of 2016. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, net income attributable to Huntsman International was $75 million on revenues of $2,469 million, compared with net income attributable to Huntsman International of $56 million on revenues of $2,355 million for the same period of 2016. The increase of $20 million in net income attributable to Huntsman Corporation and the increase of $19 million in net income attributable to Huntsman International was the result of the following items:

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2017 increased by $114 million, or 5%, as compared with the 2016 period. The increase was primarily due to higher average selling prices in our Polyurethanes, Performance Products and Pigments and Additives segments and higher sales volumes in our Textile Effects segment. See “—Segment Analysis” below.

Our gross profit and the gross profit of Huntsman International for the three months ended March 31, 2017 increased by $50 million, or 12% each, as compared with the 2016 period. The increase resulted from higher gross margins in our Polyurethanes, Textile Effects and Pigments and Additives segments. See “—Segment Analysis” below.

Our operating expenses and the operating expenses of Huntsman International for the three months ended March 31, 2017 decreased by $6 million and $5 million, respectively, or 2% for both, as compared with the 2016 period, primarily related to an increase in other income offset with higher selling, general and administrative expenses and the impact of translating foreign currency amounts to the U.S. dollar.

Restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs for the three months ended March 31, 2017 increased to $36 million from $13 million in the 2016 period. For more information concerning restructuring activities, see “Note 6. Restructuring, Impairment and Plant Closing Costs” to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In connection with the proposed separation of our Pigments and Additives business, we recorded business separation expenses of $9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017. We expect to record additional business separation expenses of approximately $40 million during the remainder of 2017.

Our income tax expense and the income tax expense of Huntsman International for the three months ended March 31, 2017 decreased to $23 million each from $27 million each in the 2016 period. Our income tax expense is significantly affected by the mix of income and losses in the tax jurisdictions in which we operate, as impacted by the presence of valuation allowances in certain tax jurisdictions. For further information concerning income taxes, see “Note 16. Income Taxes” to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

(1)

Excludes revenues from tolling arrangements, byproducts and raw materials.

(2)

Excludes sales volumes of byproducts and raw materials.

Polyurethanes

The increase in revenues in our Polyurethanes segment for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 was primarily due to higher average selling prices. MDI average selling prices increased in response to higher raw material costs and continued strong market conditions. MTBE average selling prices increased primarily as a result of higher pricing for high octane gasoline. MDI and MTBE sales volumes were flat compared to the same period of 2016. The increase in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to higher MDI margins, partially offset by lower MTBE margins.

Performance Products

The decrease in revenues in our Performance Products segment for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 was due to lower sales volumes because of the sale of the European surfactants business to Innospec Inc. on December 30, 2016, partially offset by higher sales volumes in the remaining businesses as well as higher average selling prices. Average selling prices increased primarily in response to higher raw material costs and favorable product mix effect from the sale of the European surfactants business. The decrease in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to lower sales volumes because of the sale of the European surfactants business and lower margins in our amines and maleic anhydride businesses, partially offset by higher sales volumes in our remaining businesses and lower fixed costs.

Advanced Materials

The decrease in revenues in our Advanced Materials segment for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 was primarily due to lower sales volumes. Sales volumes decreased primarily due to our withdrawal from certain low margin business in the coatings and construction markets and competitive pressures in the wind market, partially offset by growth in certain higher value businesses. Average selling prices were stable as the adverse impact of a stronger U.S. dollar against major international currencies was offset by the impact of higher average local currency selling prices. The decrease in segment adjusted EBITDA was due to lower margins resulting from lower sales volumes, higher raw material costs and the adverse fixed cost associated with optimizing our inventory to lower levels.

Table of Contents

Textile Effects

The increase in revenues in our Textile Effects segment for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 was due to higher sales volumes, partially offset by lower average selling prices. Sales volumes increased in both textile chemicals and dyes, particularly in our Asia, Europe and South America regions. Average selling prices decreased primarily in response to lower raw material costs and product mix. The increase in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to higher volumes and lower fixed costs.

Pigments and Additives

The decrease in revenues in our Pigments and Additives segment for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 was due to lower sales volumes, partially offset by higher average selling prices. Sales volumes decreased as a result of the fire at our Pori, Finland manufacturing facility, partially offset by an increase in sales volumes within our complementary performance additives business. Average selling prices increased primarily due to improved business conditions for titanium dioxide. The increase in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to higher average selling prices for titanium dioxide and lower costs resulting from restructuring savings, partially offset by approximately $15 million in lower EBITDA resulting from the fire at our Pori, Finland manufacturing facility.

Corporate and other

Corporate and other includes unallocated corporate overhead, unallocated foreign exchange gains and losses, LIFO inventory valuation reserve adjustments, loss on early extinguishment of debt, unallocated restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs, nonoperating income and expense, benzene sales and gains and losses on the disposition of corporate assets. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, adjusted EBITDA from Corporate and other for both Huntsman Corporation and Huntsman International remained relatively unchanged from the same period in 2016, primarily affected by a decrease in LIFO inventory valuation income, offset by an increase in income from benzene sales.

Discontinued Operations

The operating results of our former polymers, base chemicals and Australian styrenics businesses are classified as discontinued operations, and, accordingly, the revenues of these businesses are excluded from revenues for all periods presented. The adjusted EBITDA of these former businesses are included in discontinued operations for all periods presented. The loss from discontinued operations represents the operating results, legal costs, restructuring, impairment and plant closing costs and gain (loss) on disposal with respect to our former businesses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The following is a discussion of our liquidity and capital resources and does not include separate information with respect to Huntsman International in accordance with General Instructions H(1)(a) and (b) of Form 10‑Q.

Cash

Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was $93 million and $88 million, respectively. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared with the same period in 2016 was primarily attributable to increased operating income as described in “—Results of Operations” above, as well as a $7 million favorable variance in operating assets and liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 as compared with the same period of 2016.

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was $24 million and $101 million, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we paid $74 million and $99 million, respectively, for capital expenditures. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we received insurance proceeds of approximately $54 million for recovery of property damage as a result of fire damage at our Pori, Finland manufacturing facility. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we made investments in Louisiana Pigment Company, L.P. of $15 million and $11 million, respectively, and received dividends from Louisiana Pigment Company, L.P. of $12 million and $10 million, respectively.

Table of Contents

Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was $31 million and $38 million, respectively. The decrease in net cash used in financing activities was primarily due to proceeds from stock option exercises during the 2017 period, a decrease in repayments of long‑term debt during the 2017 period as compared to the 2016 period as well as proceeds received from the issuance of common stock during the 2017 period, partially offset by net borrowings under our revolving loan facilities in the 2016 period.

Free cash flow for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 were cash proceeds of $82 million and use of cash of $13 million, respectively. The improvement in free cash flow was attributable to the changes in cash flows from operating and investing activities, excluding separation and acquisition activities.

Working capital	$	1,980	$	1,777	$	203	11%

Our working capital increased by $203 million as a result of the net impact of the following significant changes:

The increase in cash and cash equivalents of $43 million resulted from the matters identified on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Accounts and notes receivable increased by $73 million mainly due to higher revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2016.

Inventories increased by $142 million primarily due to seasonally higher inventory volumes and higher raw material costs, offset in part by lower inventory volumes in our Pigments and Additives segment as a result of the fire at our Pori, Finland manufacturing facility.

Other current assets increased by $18 million primarily due to higher bank accepted drafts with maturities greater than 90 days from receipt.

Accounts payable increased by $60 million primarily due to higher purchases consistent with the higher inventory balances noted above.

Accrued liabilities increased by $16 million primarily due to deferred income recorded in connection with the partial progress payment received from our insurer related to the fire at our Pori, Finland manufacturing facility. For more information see “Note 1. General—Pori Fire” to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

SHORT-TERM AND LONG-TERM LIQUIDITY

We depend upon our cash, Senior Credit Facilities, A/R Programs and other debt instruments to provide liquidity for our operations and working capital needs. As of March 31, 2017, we had $1,292 million of combined cash and unused borrowing capacity, consisting of $469 million in cash and restricted cash, $634 million in availability under our Revolving Facility, and $189 million in availability under our A/R Programs. Our liquidity can be significantly impacted by various factors. The following matters had, or are expected to have, a significant impact on our liquidity:

Cash invested in our accounts receivable and inventory, net of accounts payable, decreased by approximately $90 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, as reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. We expect volatility in our working capital components to continue.

During 2017, we expect to spend approximately $380 million on capital expenditures, net of reimbursements. Our future expenditures include certain EHS maintenance and upgrades; repair of our Pori

Table of Contents

manufacturing facility that was damaged by fire on January 30, 2017; and periodic maintenance and repairs applicable to major units of manufacturing facilities. We expect to fund this spending with cash provided by operations.

On January 30, 2017, our titanium dioxide manufacturing facility in Pori, Finland experienced fire damage and is currently not fully operational. The Pori facility has a nameplate capacity of 130,000 metric tons, which represents approximately 15% of our total titanium dioxide capacity and approximately 10% of total European titanium dioxide demand. The site is insured for property damage as well as business interruption losses. According to our insurance policies, the respective retention levels (deductibles) for physical damage and business interruption are $15 million and 60 days, respectively, with a limit of $500 million. On February 9, 2017, we received a €50 million (approximately $54 million) payment from our insurer as an initial partial progress payment towards the overall pending claim.

We have established a process with our insurer to receive timely advance payments for the reconstruction of the facility as well as lost profits. We expect to have pre-funded cash on our balance sheet resulting from these advance insurance payments. As of March 31, 2017, the amount of deferred income relating to these advance insurance payments was $22 million. We have agreed with our insurer to have monthly meetings to review relevant site activities and interim claims as well as regular progress payments. We expect the Pori facility to restart in phases as follows: approximately 20% capacity in the second quarter of 2017; approximately 40% capacity in the second quarter of 2018; and full capacity around the end of 2018.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we made contributions to our pension and postretirement benefit plans of $16 million. During 2017, we expect to contribute an additional amount of approximately $101 million to these plans.

We are involved in a number of cost reduction programs for which we have established restructuring accruals. As of March 31, 2017, we had $106 million of accrued restructuring costs from continuing operations, of which $61 million is classified as current. For further discussion of these plans and the costs involved, see “Note 6. Restructuring, Impairment and Plant Closing costs” to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Further, we expect to incur additional restructuring charges for recently identified plans for business improvements in our Pigments and Additives segment expected to be completed by the end of 2018. We expect these additional business improvements to provide additional contributions to adjusted EBITDA in 2017.

The payment of dividends is a business decision made by our Board of Directors from time to time based on our earnings, financial position and prospects, and such other considerations as our Board of Directors considers relevant. Historically, our Board of Directors has declared quarterly cash dividends of $0.125 per share of common stock. While management currently expects that the Company will continue to pay the quarterly cash dividend, its dividend practice may change at any time.

In connection with the proposed separation of our Pigments and Additives business into a separate, publicly traded company, Venator, we anticipate that Venator will enter into new financing arrangements in anticipation of the separation. After Venator has entered into its new financing arrangements but immediately prior to separation, it will make a cash distribution to Huntsman International and, at separation, Venator will assume various Huntsman International indebtedness. We anticipate that Venator will fund such cash distribution and will repay such assumed indebtedness with the proceeds of its new financing arrangement.

During 2017, we expect to spend approximately $100 million of non‑recurring costs related to the proposed separation of our Pigments and Additives business, including costs for capital expenditures and financing. For more information see “Note 4. Separation of Pigments and Additives Business” to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

During 2017, we expect to receive a cash benefit of approximately $90 million related to overpayments of prior year tax payments. We expect to receive this refund in the second quarter of 2017.

On April 25, 2017, we made an early prepayment of $100 million on our 2015 Extended Term Loan B from existing cash. For further information, see “Note 7. Direct and Subsidiary Debt – Senior Credit Facilities” to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

As of March 31, 2017, we had $61 million classified as current portion of debt, including scheduled Senior Credit Facilities amortization payments totaling $28 million, debt at our variable interest entities of $21 million, and certain other short‑term facilities and scheduled amortization payments totaling $12 million. Although we cannot provide assurances, we intend to renew, repay or extend the majority of these short‑term facilities in the next twelve months.

As of March 31, 2017, we had approximately $411 million of cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash, held by our foreign subsidiaries, including our variable interest entities. Additionally, we have material intercompany debt obligations owed to us by our non‑U.S. subsidiaries. We intend to use cash held in our foreign subsidiaries to fund our local operations or to repatriate cash as repayments of intercompany debt. If foreign cash was repatriated as a dividend instead of repayment of intercompany debt, the dividend could be subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes without any offsetting foreign tax credit relief. At present, we estimate that we will generate sufficient cash in our U.S. operations, together with the payments of intercompany debt, to meet our cash needs in the U.S and we do not expect to repatriate cash to the U.S. as a dividend. Cash held by certain foreign subsidiaries, including our variable interest entities, may also be subject to legal restrictions, including those arising from the interests of our partners, which could limit the amounts available for repatriation.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

We are now commissioning a new production facility in Augusta, Georgia for the synthesis of iron oxide pigments, which we purchased from Rockwood. During commissioning, the facility has experienced delays producing products at the expected specifications and quantities, causing us to question the capabilities of the Augusta technology. Based on the facility’s performance during the commissioning process, we have concluded that production capacity at our Augusta facility will be substantially lower than originally anticipated. On February 6, 2017, we filed a lawsuit against Rockwood, Albemarle Corporation (as Rockwood’s successor) and certain former Rockwood executives to recover damage for fraud and breach of contract involving the Augusta technology.

RESTRUCTURING, IMPAIRMENT AND PLANT CLOSING COSTS

Since the Rockwood acquisition in 2014, our Pigments and Additives segment has been involved in a cost reduction program expected to reduce costs by approximately $140 million and improve its global competitiveness. In addition, we implemented a capacity reduction at our titanium dioxide manufacturing facility in Calais, France, which has generated approximately $35 million of annual savings beginning in the first half of 2016. We have since determined to close the Calais, France facility. Further, we expect to incur additional restructuring charges for recently identified plans for business improvements in our Pigments and Additives segment expected to be completed by the end of 2018. We expect these additional business improvements to provide additional contributions to adjusted EBITDA beginning in 2017.

For further discussion of these and other restructuring plans and the costs involved, see “Note 6. Restructuring, Impairment and Plant Closing Costs” to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

For a discussion of legal proceedings, see “Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies—Legal Matters” and “Note 14. Environmental, Health and Safety Matters—Environmental Matters” to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH AND SAFETY MATTERS

As noted in our Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2016, “Part I. Item 1. Business—Environmental, Health and Safety Matters” and “Part I. Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” we are subject to extensive environmental regulations, which may impose significant additional costs on our operations in the future. While we do not expect any of these enactments or proposals to have a material adverse effect on us in the near term, we cannot predict the longer‑term effect of any of these regulations or proposals on our future financial condition. For a discussion of environmental, health and safety matters, see “Note 14. Environmental, Health and Safety Matters” to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Huntsman International has entered into several interest rate contracts to hedge the variability caused by monthly changes in cash flow due to associated changes in LIBOR under our Senior Credit Facilities. As of March 31, 2017, we had $100 million notional value of interest rate hedges with a fixed rate of 2.5%. These swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and the effective portion of the changes in the fair value of the swaps are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). The fair value of these hedges on March 31, 2017 was nil and they will expire in April 2017.

Table of Contents

of Arabian Amines Company as of July 1, 2010, the interest rate contract is now included in our consolidated results. See “Note 5. Variable Interest Entities.” The notional amount of the swap as of March 31, 2017 was $18 million, and the interest rate contract is not designated as a cash flow hedge. As of March 31, 2017, the fair value of the swap was $1 million and was recorded in noncurrent liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. For each of the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we recorded a reduction of interest expense of nil due to changes in fair value of the swap.

We review our non-U.S. dollar denominated debt and derivative instruments to determine the appropriate amounts designated as hedges. As of March 31, 2017, we have designated approximately €606 million (approximately $656 million) of euro-denominated debt and cross-currency interest rate contracts as a hedge of our net investment. For the three ended March 31, 2017, the amount of loss recognized on the hedge of our net investment was $15 and was recorded in other comprehensive income on our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a‑15(e) and 15d‑15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2017. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2017, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, in that they ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

No changes to our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a‑15(f) and 15d‑15(f) under the Exchange Act). However, we can only give reasonable assurance that our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent or detect material misstatements on a timely basis. Ineffective internal controls over financial reporting could cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and could result in a lower trading price for our securities.
