Description: RPM RPM International October 30, 2025
RPM International Inc. (NYSE: RPM) is a diversified specialty-chemicals producer serving construction, industrial, and consumer markets through four operating segments-Consumer Products Group (CPG), Performance Coatings Group (PCG), Consumer, and Specialty Products Group (SPG). Its product portfolio spans waterproofing and roofing systems, sealants, foams, concrete admixtures, industrial coatings, fire-stop solutions, and a range of restoration and DIY materials, positioning the firm as a one-stop supplier for building-envelope and infrastructure projects.
Key recent metrics: FY 2023 revenue reached approximately $6.5 billion, with an adjusted operating margin of ~13% and free-cash-flow conversion around 70%, supporting a stable dividend yield near 0.8%. The business is highly sensitive to U.S. construction-spending trends-currently growing ~4% YoY-and to cyclical demand for renovation and infrastructure spending, both of which are bolstered by fiscal stimulus and higher-interest-rate-adjusted financing costs that can shift demand toward durable, low-maintenance coating solutions. RPM’s disciplined acquisition strategy (e.g., the 2022 purchase of Carboline’s fire-stop business) continues to drive incremental top-line growth while leveraging its strong distribution network.
For a deeper dive into RPM’s valuation metrics and scenario analysis, the ValueRay platform offers a data-rich overview that can help you assess the trade-off between growth and margin stability.
