Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure. In connection with meetings and presentations at an industry conference beginning on January 27, 2025, Stepan Company (the "Company") provided an update on the construction of its new alkoxylation facility in Pasadena, Texas. Due to unforeseen delays, the Company now expects the startup of the facility to occur in the first quarter of 2025. The Company does not expect this change in the startup date to materially impact its first quarter results or otherwise materially impact the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations. The Company plans to provide additional detail regarding the expected startup of the facility during the Company's forthcoming fourth quarter and full year 2024 earnings call. The information in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished and shall not be deemed to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any registration statement or other document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as otherwise stated in such filing.
