Exhibit 99.1

Dow reports second quarter 2020 results

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
GAAP loss per share was $0.31; Operating loss per share¹ was $0.26 and excludes significant items in the quarter, totaling $0.05 per share, primarily related to integration and separation costs.
Net sales were $8.4 billion, down 24% versus the year-ago period driven by both local price and volume declines, as the COVID-19 pandemic dramatically impacted results.
Local price declined 14% versus the year-ago period, primarily reflecting lower global energy prices. Currency decreased sales by 1%.
Volume declined 9% versus the year-ago period. Demand growth in food packaging, health and hygiene, home care and pharma applications was more than offset by weakness in durable good end-markets. Notably, the Company reported 3% year-over-year and 13% sequential volume improvements in Asia Pacific as the economy reopened in China.
Equity losses were $95 million versus equity losses of $15 million in the year-ago period, primarily driven by lower results at the Kuwait joint ventures on continued margin compression stemming from COVID-19.
GAAP Net loss from continuing operations was $217 million. Operating EBIT1 was $57 million, down from $1.1 billion in the year-ago period. Margin compression and increased equity losses were partially mitigated by the progress against our previously announced expense reduction actions.
Cash provided by operating activities – continuing ops. was $1.6 billion, including a release of $526 million of working capital as we managed production to demand. Dow delivered a $639 million increase in cash flow from ops. versus the year-ago period, driven by a strong working capital improvement as well as a $461 million ethylene capacity reservation payment from Olin. Capital expenditures were $273 million and free cash flow1 was $1.3 billion, up $836 million year-over-year. The Company’s ongoing prioritization of cash since spin has resulted in a cash flow conversion1 of 110% on a trailing 12 month basis.
Dividend returns to shareholders totaled $516 million in the quarter.
Total cash and available committed liquidity at quarter-end was approximately $12 billion, including $3.7 billion of cash and equivalents. The Company paid down nearly $600 million of debt in the quarter, which included full repayment of the previously accessed uncommitted lines, achieving a net debt improvement of more than $740 million year-to-date. Dow has no substantive long-term debt due until the second half of 2023.
Dow signed a definitive agreement to sell its rail infrastructure assets and related equipment at six major North American sites to Watco Companies on July 2, with expected cash proceeds at close in excess of $310 million by year end.

CEO QUOTE
Jim Fitterling, Dow’s chairman and chief executive officer, commented on the quarter:

“Recognizing the significant impact that COVID-19 would have on demand in the quarter, Dow took proactive actions to electively focus on cash and maintain our financial strength with a continued emphasis on safe, reliable operations and disciplined capital allocation. As a result, Dow once again generated higher cash flow in the quarter. We captured solid demand growth in packaging, health and hygiene, home care and pharma end-markets, which partially offset weakness in consumer durable goods. Extended economic lockdowns shifted the inflection point for demand recovery in key markets and geographies into June, where we began to see gradual improvements across most industries. The growing recovery in China and early signs of improvement in Western Europe are positive indicators for the United States and Latin America.

“Our proactive cost and cash interventions enabled us to continue to maximize our financial flexibility through the pandemic. We delivered another quarter of improved year-over-year cash flow from operations as we have every quarter since spin. We maintained our liquidity position, further reduced our net debt, and we progressed our strategic priorities by announcing an agreement to divest certain rail infrastructure assets. And importantly, we continued to stay close to our customers, providing new channels to access our solutions, such as our new MobilityScience™ platform for the transportation industry, and implementing enhanced supply chain visibility for them as we managed through this historic period.”

Equity Earnings$20  $74  $(54) $ $15  

Packaging & Specialty Plastics net sales were $4 billion, down 23% versus the year-ago period. Volume was flat, as growth in non-durable packaging end-market applications was offset by declines from durable end-market exposure. Local price declined 22% from lower global energy prices, and currency decreased net sales by 1%.

Equity earnings for the segment were $20 million, compared to equity earnings of $74 million in the year-ago period. Lower integrated olefin and aromatics margins at the Kuwait and Sadara joint ventures were partially mitigated by improved margins at our Thai joint ventures.

Operating EBIT was $318 million, compared to $768 million in the year-ago period. Targeted expense reductions as well as volume gains and incremental integrated margin improvement in non-durable packaging applications were more than offset by lower demand and integrated margins in durable end-markets.

Packaging and Specialty Plastics reported a net sales decline, driven by reduced polyethylene pricing. Volume was flat as gains in Asia Pacific and Europe, Middle East, Africa and India (EMEAI) were offset by declines in the U.S. & Canada. Latin America volume was flat. The business captured strong demand growth in flexible food and specialty packaging, industrial and consumer packaging, and health and hygiene applications, which was offset by declines in higher-margin functional polymers’ exposure to durable end-markets, notably automotive, infrastructure and construction.

Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure net sales were $2.4 billion, down 28% versus the year-ago period. Volume declined 18% due to reduced demand for durable good end-markets primarily in Polyurethanes & Construction Chemicals. Local price decreased 9%, and currency decreased net sales by 1%.

Equity losses for the segment were $113 million compared to equity losses of $78 million in the year-ago period, primarily due to margin compression in MEG at EQUATE.

Operating EBIT was a loss of $220 million compared to earnings of $154 million in the year-ago period due to much weaker demand, margin compression and increased equity losses.

Polyurethanes & Construction Chemicals reported a net sales decline primarily on lower volume and local prices. Local price decreased due to lower global energy costs. Demand was significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly in construction, furniture and bedding, and automotive. Volume growth in Asia Pacific was more than offset by declines in other regions.

Industrial Solutions reported lower net sales driven by decreased local prices and volume. Improved demand for pharma and home care applications was more than offset by declines in industrial and oil applications, as well as consumer athleisure apparel. Volume growth in Asia Pacific was more than offset by reduced demand in other regions due to the impact of COVID-19. Local prices declined due to lower global energy prices, with Industrial Specialties prices showing more resilience.

Performance Materials & Coatings net sales were $1.9 billion, down 21% versus the year-ago period. Volume declined 14% as growth in home care products as well as do-it-yourself (DIY) architectural coatings in the U.S. & Canada was more than offset by a decline in siloxanes. Local price decreased 6%, and currency decreased net sales by 1%.

Operating EBIT was $27 million, compared to $214 million in the year-ago period, primarily due to margin compression in siloxanes and lower demand due to regional lockdowns in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Dow reports second quarter 2020 results

Consumer Solutions reported a decrease in net sales due to local price and volume declines in all regions. Demand growth in home care applications was more than offset by volume declines in automotive, construction and personal care end-markets as consumer activities and buying patterns were limited by pandemic-related government mandates. Prices in formulated silicone applications were more resilient than siloxane prices which experienced weaker supply/demand fundamentals.

Coatings & Performance Monomers reported lower net sales due to declines in local price and volume in all regions. Local price declined primarily due to lower monomer prices. While Coatings volume was down overall, the business reported growth in architectural coatings in the U.S. & Canada as consumers favored DIY activities. Acrylic monomers pricing remained under pressure globally on weaker supply/demand fundamentals.


OUTLOOK

“Based on what we’ve seen in the second quarter and into July, we continue to expect a gradual and uneven recovery and, therefore, remain intensely focused on the actions within our control and maximizing our operational advantages,” said Fitterling. “Our disciplined approach to cash generation and capital allocation, in addition to our structural cost improvements, will continue to serve as a solid foundation for us to weather this downturn and position us to capture significant value as markets lift.

“For that reason, we will upsize our 2020 operating expense reduction target from $350 million to $500 million through additional structural cost interventions. We will also initiate a restructuring program during the quarter, targeting more than $300 million in annualized EBITDA benefit by the end of 2021. This program includes a 6% reduction in Dow’s global workforce as well as actions to exit uncompetitive assets. While these are difficult decisions, they are necessary to maintain competitiveness while the economic recovery gains traction.

“Going forward, we have significant addressable market opportunities that will drive growth as the economy recovers. Global economic indicators and end-markets have begun to show improvement, and we will continue to benefit from our unique competitive advantages – our industry-leading feedstock flexibility, unmatched materials portfolio, and geographic and end-market diversity – enabling us to continue to outperform our peers for the long-term.”

Separation from DowDuPont
On April 1, 2019, DowDuPont Inc. ("DowDuPont" and effective June 3, 2019, n/k/a DuPont de Nemours, Inc. or "DuPont") completed the separation of its materials science business and Dow Inc. became the direct parent company of The Dow Chemical Company and its consolidated subsidiaries ("TDCC" and together with Dow Inc., "Dow" or the "Company"), owning all of the outstanding common shares of TDCC. For filings related to the period commencing April 1, 2019 and thereafter, TDCC was deemed the predecessor to Dow Inc., and the historical results of TDCC are deemed the historical results of Dow Inc. for periods prior to and including March 31, 2019. The information in this report reflects the results of Dow and its consolidated subsidiaries, after giving effect to the distribution to DowDuPont of TDCC’s agricultural sciences business (“AgCo”) and specialty products business (“SpecCo”) and the receipt of E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company and its consolidated subsidiaries' (“Historical DuPont”) ethylene and ethylene copolymers business (other than its ethylene acrylic elastomers business) ("ECP").

The separation was contemplated by the merger of equals transaction effective August 31, 2017, under the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 11, 2015, as amended on March 31, 2017. TDCC and Historical DuPont each merged with subsidiaries of DowDuPont and, as a result, TDCC and Historical DuPont became subsidiaries of DowDuPont (the “Merger”). Subsequent to the Merger, TDCC and Historical DuPont engaged in a series of internal reorganization and realignment steps to realign their businesses into three subgroups: agriculture, materials science and specialty products. Dow Inc. was formed as a wholly owned subsidiary of DowDuPont to serve as the holding company for the materials science business.

Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information
In order to provide the most meaningful comparison of results of operations and results by segment, supplemental unaudited pro forma financial information has been included in the following financial schedules. The unaudited pro forma financial information is based on the consolidated financial statements of TDCC, adjusted to give effect to the separation from DowDuPont as if it had been consummated on January 1, 2017. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 pro forma adjustments have been made for (1) the margin impact of various manufacturing, supply and service related agreements entered into with DuPont and Corteva in connection with the separation which provide for different pricing than the historical intercompany and intracompany pricing practices of TDCC and Historical DuPont and (2) the elimination of the impact of events directly attributable to the Merger, internal reorganization and business realignment, separation, distribution and other related transactions (e.g., one-time transaction costs). The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and the three months ended June 30, 2019, are presented under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").

The unaudited pro forma financial information has been presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of what Dow's results of operations actually would have been had the separation from DowDuPont been completed as of January 1, 2017, nor is it indicative of the future operating results of Dow. The unaudited pro forma information does not reflect restructuring or integration activities or other costs following the separation from DowDuPont that may be incurred to achieve cost or growth synergies of Dow. For further information on the unaudited pro forma financial information, please refer to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K dated June 3, 2019.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This earnings release includes information that does not conform to U.S. GAAP and are considered non-GAAP measures. These measures include the Company's pro forma consolidated results and pro forma earnings per share on an adjusted basis. Management uses these measures internally for planning, forecasting and evaluating the performance of the Company's segments, including allocating resources. Dow's management believes that these non-GAAP measures best reflect the ongoing performance of the Company during the periods presented and provide more relevant and meaningful information to investors as they provide insight with respect to ongoing operating results of the Company and a more useful comparison of year-over-year results. These non-GAAP measures supplement the Company's U.S. GAAP disclosures and should not be viewed as alternatives to U.S. GAAP measures of performance. Furthermore, such non-GAAP measures may not be consistent with similar measures provided or used by other companies. Non-GAAP measures included in this release are defined below. Reconciliations for these non-GAAP measures to U.S. GAAP are provided in the Selected Financial Information and Non-GAAP Measures section starting on page 13. Dow does not provide forward-looking U.S. GAAP financial measures or a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because the Company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, unusual gains and losses, foreign currency exchange gains or losses and potential future asset impairments, as well as discrete taxable events, without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on U.S. GAAP results for the guidance period.
