  • Westlake (WLK) Valuation Review After $952M Annual Loss and Share Price Rebound
    January 27, 2026, 3:02 AM EST. Westlake (WLK) reported annual revenue of $11.48 billion but a significant net loss of $952 million, raising questions about its recent share price rebound. Shares gained 14.12% over one month and 10.10% over three months, yet its one-year total shareholder return has fallen 26.49%, indicating fading longer-term momentum. Currently priced near its fair value estimate of $85.36 at $84.16, Westlake trades at a price-to-sales (P/S) ratio of 0.9x, above the 0.8x fair estimate and 0.6x peer average, suggesting limited margin for earnings recovery missteps. U.S. infrastructure spending boosts demand in Westlake's Housing and Infrastructure Products segment, providing revenue support. However, ongoing global chemical oversupply and elevated feedstock costs pose risks to margin recovery. Investors should weigh whether the stock's current valuation reflects realistic growth and profitability forecasts amid these challenges.
