Sealed Air Reports Q3 2024 Results
"With the shift into two verticals, Food and Protective, and the onboarding of new leadership, we have positioned Sealed Air for long-term success," said Patrick Kivits, Sealed Air's CEO. "Over the coming months, we are focused on operationalizing each vertical and finalizing the long-term growth strategy for each business. In parallel, we are stepping up our cost take-out initiatives to right-size each business and improve profitability until our transformation takes hold." "While our third quarter results were ahead of expectation, the strength of our Food business continues to be offset by continued softness in our Protective portfolio. As a result, we are maintaining the midpoint of our Sales and Adjusted EBITDA guidance," said Dustin Semach, Sealed Air's President and CFO. "We continue to improve underlying cash generation fundamentals, optimize our debt and tax rate, and as a result, we are raising our guidance for Free Cash Flow and Adjusted EPS for the year."
