Business transformation and strategic investments
Over the past seven years, the company has transformed its business, expanding capabilities, especially through acquisitions like International Paper's Consumer Packaging and AR Packaging, making it a leader in paper cups and innovation centers.
Major capital expenditures are winding down with the Waco, Texas recycled paperboard facility coming online in Q4, shifting CapEx from 12% to about 5% of sales, enabling significant cash flow generation.
The business now operates with a balanced portfolio across food, beverage, food service, household, and health and beauty, with 70% of sales in North America and 30% in Europe.
Innovation and sustainability are core, with over 3,000 patents and a focus on plastic and foam replacement, supported by five global innovation centers.
Nearly $2 billion invested in recycling platforms over five years, positioning the company as North America's lowest-cost, highest-quality recycler.
Market dynamics, headwinds, and operational focus
Near-term headwinds include consumer affordability, customer reformulations (MAHA movement, GLP-1 drugs), and excess SBS paperboard capacity, all seen as temporary but impactful.
Q3 volumes are down about 2% year-to-date, slightly outperforming broader market data, with destocking largely behind.
The company is focused on operational execution: ramping up Waco, driving innovation, and leveraging cost advantages to gain strategic share.
Pricing strategy is shifting from RISI-based to more transparent, value-based, and cost-plus models, with a goal to increase the share of such contracts.
No major M&A planned; growth will be driven by innovation and execution on the existing asset base.
Financial outlook and capital allocation
CapEx will revert to 5% of sales or less in 2026, with about 2% for maintenance and the rest for growth and efficiency.
Free cash flow is expected to rise significantly as CapEx moderates, with Waco contributing $80 million annually over the next two years.
Dividend growth and share repurchases remain priorities, with nearly 25% of shares repurchased since 2018.
Leverage is targeted to finish the year at 3.5x, with a focus on achieving investment grade as part of Vision 2030.
Inventory optimization and bonus depreciation from recent legislation are expected to further support cash flow.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
