LyondellBasell (LYB) reported Q1 2026 revenue of $7.20B (down 6.3% YoY) while operating income more than doubled to $239M, though EPS fell 29.6% to $0.38 and operating cash flow remained negative at -$269M.
Key risk: Negative Operating Cash Flow
LYB generated negative operating cash flow of -$269M in Q1 2026, though this improved from -$579M in Q1 2025. Sustained negative operating cash flow limits the company's ability to fund capital expenditures, dividends, and debt repayment from internal sources.
