Kronos Worldwide produces and markets titanium dioxide pigments (TiO2), a base industrial product used in various applications. Co., along with its distributors and agents, sell and provide technical services for its products to customers. Co.'s TiO2 are used for coatings, plastics, paper and other applications. Co.'s TiO2 has three complementary businesses which are: selling ilmenite ore to third parties; manufacturing and selling iron-based chemicals, which are co-products and processed co-products of sulfate and chloride process TiO2 pigment production; and manufacturing and selling titanium oxychloride and titanyl sulfate, which are side-stream products from the production of TiO2. The KRO stock yearly return is shown above.
The yearly return on the KRO stock yearly return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the annual return over the calendar year 2014 for the given stock.
When performing this calculation it is important to factor in dividends, because a financial instrument's annual return is
more than just the change in price if that instrument pays a dividend or coupon.
One way to factor dividends into the return is simply to count them as cash — we don't do
that here. Instead, our website aims to empower investors
by performing the KRO annual return calculation with any dividends reinvested as applicable (on ex-dates).
