Chemours, in its last earnings call, stated that it expects adjusted EBITDA and adjusted earnings for 2021 toward the higher end of its previously-disclosed guidance ranges, owing to strong second-quarter results and the ongoing business momentum.

However, weaker automotive production due to the global semiconductor shortage may affect volumes. The company also faces cost pressure in the Titanium Technologies unit. It is also exposed to headwind from supply chain issues and higher raw material costs.
