Westlake Chemical Partners Hits 52-Week Low at USD 20.63

Westlake Chemical Partners LP, a microcap player in the specialty chemicals industry, has recently reached a new 52-week low of USD 20.63 on September 24, 2025. This decline highlights the stock's ongoing struggles, as it has faced a challenging year, with a return of -5.42% over the past twelve months.
The company, which boasts a market capitalization of USD 774 million, has a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 2.00, indicating a low valuation relative to its earnings. However, its financial metrics reveal a mixed picture. Westlake Chemical Partners has a return on equity of 63.29%, showcasing high management efficiency, yet it has experienced a decline in operating profit growth at an annual rate of -1.43% over the past five years.

Additionally, the company has reported a significant drop in net profit, which fell by 33.34% to USD 19.51 million. Despite these challenges, Westlake maintains a relatively low debt-to-equity ratio of 0.72, suggesting a strong ability to service its debt. The stock's performance continues to be closely monitored as it navigates these financial dynamics.
