This Amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Ashland Inc. (“Ashland”) on June 26, 2023, (the “Original Form 8-K”). The Original Form 8-K inadvertently reported the “Date of Report (Date of earliest event reported)” on the cover page as June 26, 2023, when it should have been reported as June 22, 2023.

This Amendment is also being made to report that on August 11, 2023, the Ashland Board of Directors (the “Board”) appointed Mr. Pedreiro to the Audit and Compensation Committees of the Board. At the time of the filing of the Original Form 8-K, the Board had not determined the committee assignments for Mr. Pedreiro.
