Amcor CEO, Peter Konieczny, said: This combination delivers on our strategy to become a stronger company with a broader, more complete offering for customers and enhanced positions in attractive categories. Our focus now turns to delivering on synergies and growth opportunities, including leveraging our extensive global footprint and enhanced innovation and R&D capabilities, while also further refining our portfolio. The outstanding work our teams have completed over the past several months enables Amcor to enter fiscal 2026 in a better position than we anticipated, with a synergy run rate that will start strong and build quickly through the year. We are now uniquely positioned to deliver more consistent growth, further improve margins and drive compelling near- and long-term value for shareholders.

In fiscal 2026, before taking into account growth in the underlying business, Amcor expects delivery of $260 million of pre-tax synergies alone to drive adjusted EPS accretion of approximately 12 percent. By the end of fiscal 2028, the company expects total pre-tax synergy benefits to build to approximately $650 million and to have delivered an additional $280 million one-time cash benefits from working capital improvements. Including full run rate synergies, annual cash flow is expected to exceed $3 billion by fiscal 2028, providing significant capacity for Amcor to fund organic reinvestment, value accretive M&A and shareholder returns through a compelling and growing dividend and share repurchases, taking long-term shareholder value creation to a new and higher level.

Amcor CEO, Peter Konieczny, conculded: As a clear leader in consumer and healthcare packaging with a broad global footprint, Amcor is now better positioned to meet customer and consumer needs as markets continue to evolve. We are thrilled to welcome our new employees, customers and shareholders. This is day one of an exciting and incredibly strong future for Amcor and all our stakeholders.
