PHILADELPHIA, June 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Enviri II Corporation (“New Enviri” or the “Company” NYSE: NVRI WI) today announced the completion of its spin-off as a standalone publicly traded company, immediately prior to the sale of Clean Earth to Veolia Environnement SA (“Veolia”). New Enviri is led by Russell Hochman, President and Chief Executive Officer.

New Enviri is a market-leading, global provider of environmental solutions for industrial waste streams and innovative equipment and technology for the rail sector. The Company has strong positions in attractive industrial and infrastructure markets, a healthy balance sheet, and a focused strategy to drive improved earnings and cash flow. It operates through its two segments, Harsco Environmental and Harsco Rail. Harsco Environmental is expected to benefit from a steel market recovery, selective growth investments, and continued actions to simplify the business, reduce costs and drive operational excellence. At Rail, the Company is executing a disciplined turnaround plan centered on operational improvement, right-sizing its cost structure, growing its core equipment and aftermarket businesses and de-risking its legacy ETO contracts.

“We are excited to have New Enviri begin this next chapter with a renewed focus on serving our customers and maximizing value for shareholders through disciplined execution and capital allocation," said Russell Hochman, President and CEO of New Enviri. "There are exciting opportunities to enhance the earnings potential of Harsco Environmental and Harsco Rail as we implement various internal self-help initiatives and markets recover. I would also like to thank our employees and stakeholders for their ongoing support as we build a stronger company for the future.”

New Enviri Financial Highlights

• Annualized 2026 expected pro forma revenues and Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $1.2 billion and $140 million, respectively, following the rightsizing of central corporate costs.
• A conservative capital structure with Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA of 2.0x, a revolving credit facility that was undrawn at closing, and a capital position to de-risk Rail’s major ETO contracts.
• Significant earnings growth and cash flow potential through internal improvement initiatives and investments as well as a recovery in relevant end markets, which is expected to support future debt reduction.
  

On June 2, 2026, New Enviri common stock will begin Regular Way trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the ticker “NVRI,” and it will be renamed “Enviri Corporation.”

Enviri previously announced its intent to separate its Harsco Environmental and Harsco Rail businesses, as New Enviri, into an independent, publicly traded company in connection with the sale of Clean Earth to Veolia on November 21, 2025.
