Calumet, Inc. (NASDAQ: CLMT), founded in 1919 and headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana, is a U.S.-based specialty manufacturer that produces branded specialty products and renewable fuels across three reporting segments: Specialty Products and Solutions (solvents, waxes, customized lubricating oils, white oils, petrolatums, gels, and esters); Performance Brands (high-performance consumer and industrial products sold under the Royal Purple, Bel-Ray, and TruFuel labels); and Montana/Renewables (renewable diesel, renewable aviation fuel, and renewable naphtha produced from geographically advantaged feedstocks, plus conventional gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, and specialty asphalt from Canadian crude). The company serves wholesale distributors and retail chains in North America and internationally, and operates in the GICS Energy sub-industry of Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing, where specialty formulated products typically carry higher margins than commodity fuels due to their differentiated specifications and end-use applications.
