    Westlake (WLK): Evaluating Valuation Following Major Debt Refinancing and Capital Structure Shift

    Westlake (WLK) has completed a major debt refinancing by issuing senior unsecured notes and repurchasing its 3.6% Senior Notes due 2026 to strengthen its debt maturity profile and optimize capital structure. Despite these efforts, the stock has seen a 1-year total shareholder return of -49.5% and a recent price drop. Analysts suggest the stock is undervalued with a fair value of $82.21, driven by long-term demand in its HIP segment. However, global chemical oversupply and volatile raw material costs pose risks to earnings recovery.
