Company Adjusts FY26 Free Cash Flow Outlook to At Least $315M
Backs FY26 adjusted free cash flow view at least $315M. The company said, "Our markets have now experienced a multi-year period of industrial contraction, and we have not identified any compelling demand inflection on the horizon. While we believe we are well positioned for an eventual recovery of the industrial economy, at this time we believe it is appropriate to continue to provide only low-end guidance based on the continuing demand trends reflected, both in the current year and in the past year, and current price/cost factors. As a result of current and anticipated consequences of the Middle East conflict, we have reduced our low-end annual Adjusted EBITDA guidance. Call-in details are provided below."
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."
