We were cautious on market dynamics entering the third quarter and continued to take decisive price andcost actions. These efforts helped offset continued softness and increased volatility in the demandenvironment leading to a modest 2.5% decline in adjusted EBIT for the third quarter.

We are confident in the strength of our underlying business, customer value proposition and executioncapabilities. Our expectation that current market conditions will persist in the near-term means we are alsolaser focused on continued initiatives to recover inflation, drive cost productivity and advance previouslyannounced structural cost reductions. We have adjusted our fiscal 2023 outlook to reflect the challengingoperating environment and the actions we are taking give us confidence that earnings growth will build as we progress through fiscal 2024.

We remain focused on executing our strategy for long term value creation, which includes reinvesting in thebusiness for organic growth, pursuing acquisitions and/or regular share repurchases and returning cash toshareholders through a compelling and growing dividend.”

Mondi puts the fizz into Coca-Cola HBC Austria’s functional packaging solution

Mondi is delighted to launch a new more sustainable sleeve packaging, created to replace conventional plastic shrink wrap around 1.5 litre sparkling soft drink multipacks produced by Coca-Cola HBC in Austria and keep them secure. Mondi’s Hug-IT, which keeps six bottles together during transportation, is made of Mondi’s Advantage SpringPack Plus, crowned by Guinness World Records as the strongest paper in the world.¹ The Hug-IT sleeve has high tensile strength and incomparable stretchability, so it can be trusted to wrap around the six bottles tightly, keeping them upright and held together during transit – from factory site, to retailer, to the consumer’s home. It will secure 1.5-liter PET multi-packs of the Coca-Cola, Fanta, Sprite and Mezzo Mix brands and will be sold in retail outlets throughout Austria. Hug-IT is an innovative solution, and Advantage SpringPack Plus is currently the only paper on the market offering such unique capabilities, being strong enough holding the bottle bundles together as final Hug-IT solution.
