Dow Expands into Missile Defense Amid Ongoing Cost-Cutting Efforts

Dow Inc., a multinational chemical corporation, has declared a $0.35 per share dividend to be paid on September 11, 2026, to shareholders of record as of August 31, 2026.

The company has also entered agreements with Boeing and RTX to support the expanded production of the Aegis missile defense system under the Department of War's Acquisition Transformation Strategy.

This combination of a maintained cash return to shareholders and entry into missile defense manufacturing highlights Dow's growing role in defense-related supply chains alongside its traditional materials science operations.
