Growth Profile
PPG's 2023 results were record by most metrics, aided by pricing power after years of raw material inflation. The 2024 downturn reflected softness in construction (architectural coatings EMEA), automotive OEM slowdown, and FX headwinds in Latin America/Asia. The 2025 recovery was organic (+2%), led by aerospace coatings, protective/marine, and traffic solutions. Management targets continued adjusted EPS growth of 8–10% over the medium term through pricing discipline, structural cost savings ($175M+ annualized), and share buybacks. PPG completed $781M in buybacks in 2025.
