Greif Reports Q2 Revenue of $1.07B, Below Consensus

Reports Q2 revenue $1.07B, consensus $1.1B. The company said, "Greif delivered a resilient second quarter in a continued soft industrial environment. Demand remains subdued, and our results reflect the reality of the markets we serve. That said, we executed well on the factors within our control. Adjusted EBITDA increased 7.5% with margin expansion, and we generated strong adjusted free cash flow of $179 million reflecting disciplined operations and a structurally stronger cash generation profile. We have also significantly strengthened our financial position. At 1.1x leverage, our balance sheet provides flexibility to invest in the business, return capital to shareholders, and navigate ongoing uncertainty from a position of strength. Our strategy remains consistent. We are building for organic growth through operational execution, commercial discipline, and continuous improvement, while complementing that with targeted tuck-in M&A, where we will remain selective and focused on value. We are not yet seeing a demand inflection, and geopolitical developments, including the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, continue to weigh on industrial activity. As a result, we are taking a more conservative outlook and managing the business accordingly, with a focus on cost control, cash generation, and disciplined execution. The actions we have taken over the past year are strengthening Greif structurally. We are a more focused, more resilient, and more cash-generative company, better positioned to outperform through the cycle."
