TORONTO, Ontario, September 12, 2022– Chemtrade Logistics Income Fund (TSX: CHE.UN) warned a possible labour strike at major U.S. freight railroads, including the preparations for such strike, could have a material negative impact on Chemtrade’s business results. Chemtrade, its suppliers, and customers rely on rail service for the movement of raw materials and finished goods. In preparation for the strike, many of the U.S. railroads have already started pre-emptively curtailing the shipment of certain goods, which will impact Chemtrade’s ability to ship chlorine, sulfur dioxide and hydrogen sulfide to customers starting this week. Further, these restrictions may impact Chemtrade’s ability to receive raw materials and ship finished goods across all business lines. If the rail workers go on strike, the exact impact on Chemtrade’s business will depend on the duration of the strike and the length of time for rail service to normalize. Due to the complexity of the rail network and the uncertainty of the duration of the strike, it is not possible to estimate the impact to Chemtrade’s business results at this time.
