PPG is in a significant legal dispute with Westlake over a liability from a 2013 divestiture, with a potential award of $350M to $700M. Westlake has stated it will not post a bond or pay, forcing PPG to manage the financial and operational fallout, likely diverting significant legal and financial resources.
Filing excerpt
On May 30, 2024, Westlake informed PPG that the Brazilian court entered an award against PPG (which remains the nominal defendant) that with prejudgment interest, fees, and costs would total over $700 million. More recently, Westlake informed PPG that it believes simple prejudgment interest applies to the judgment which would result in the final award being approximately $350 million.
