CEO Commentary
“We are excited to present another quarter of
solid progress on our Build to Last Strategy, including completing
our Ipackchem acquisition and achieving multiple other milestones
on our Build to Last missions,” stated Ole Rosgaard, Chief
Executive Officer of Greif. “These missions, enabled by operating
excellence, are structurally improving our operating efficiency,
creating significant operating leverage as we saw continued signs
of demand improvement in many of our key regions and end markets
during the quarter. On the demand side, our second quarter results
exceeded our expectations, however results were impacted by
significant negative price or cost in our paper business from the
continued delayed recognition of announced price increases. For the
time being, we continue to monitor and manage the improving demand
alongside our customers, while strictly managing costs to ensure
value creation.”
Build to Last Mission
Progress
Our customer satisfaction index (CSI)(6) is a
key metric we utilize to ensure continued customer service
excellence, with a long-term goal of a CSI score greater than 95.0.
Our consolidated CSI score was 92.6 at the end of the fiscal second
quarter 2024. The CSI score for the Paper Packaging & Services
business segment was 93.7 and for the Global Industrial Packaging
segment was 91.4.
Each year Greif conducts a Gallup Engagement
Survey as part of our mission to Create Thriving Communities
through exemplary colleague engagement. In April we concluded our
2023 survey and achieved an engagement score of 84, which is again
within the top quartile of all manufacturing organizations.
Additionally, this year, due to our exemplary workplace culture, we
are honored to have received from Gallup the 2024 Exceptional
Workplace Award. Thank you to our over 14,000 colleagues globally
for their continued passion for Greif and commitment to each
other.
Aligned to our mission of Protecting Our Future,
in April Greif released its 15th annual Sustainability Report,
which is available for review at
https://www.greif.com/sustainability/. We encourage our investors
to please review this report, which includes key milestones
achieved in 2023 as well as an update on our progress towards our
2030 sustainability goals.

Note: A reconciliation of the differences
between all non-GAAP financial measures used in this release with
the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in
the financial schedules that are a part of this release. These
non-GAAP financial measures are intended to supplement and should
be read together with our financial results. They should not be
considered an alternative or substitute for, and should not be
considered superior to, our reported financial results.
Accordingly, users of this financial information should not place
undue reliance on these non-GAAP financial measures.
Fiscal Second
Quarter 2024 Segment
Results: (all results compared to the
second quarter of
2023 unless otherwise noted)
Net sales are impacted mainly by the volume of
primary products(7) sold, selling prices and product mix, and the
impact of changes in foreign currencies against the U.S. Dollar.
The table below shows the percentage impact of each of these items
on net sales for our primary products for the fiscal second quarter
of 2024 as compared to the prior year quarter for the business
segments with manufacturing operations. Net sales from completed
acquisitions of Centurion Container, Reliance and Ipackchem’s
primary products are not included in the table below, but will be
included in their respective segments starting in the upcoming
fiscal third quarter for Centurion Container, the fiscal first
quarter of 2025 for Reliance and fiscal third quarter of 2025 for
Ipackchem.

Global Industrial Packaging
Net sales increased by $56.6 million to $804.8
million primarily due to higher volumes, higher average selling
prices and contribution from recent acquisitions.
Gross profit increased by $3.6 million to $181.5
million. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to the same
factors that impacted net sales, offset by higher raw material,
transportation and manufacturing costs.
Operating profit decreased by $27.9 million to
$83.4 million primarily due to higher SG&A expenses related to
higher compensation expenses, costs incurred for strategic
investments, and amortization expenses from recent acquisitions,
and a $9.8 million gain recognized during the second quarter
of 2023 related to our previously held minority ownership interest
in Centurion, partially offset by the same factors that impacted
gross profit.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $2.9 million to
$118.3 million primarily due to higher SG&A expenses, partially
offset by the same factors that impacted gross profit.
Paper Packaging &
Services
Net sales increased by $6.0 million to $560.8
million primarily due to higher volumes and contribution from
recent acquisitions, partially offset by lower average selling
prices.
Gross profit decreased by $45.4 million to $86.0
million. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to higher
raw material, transportation and manufacturing costs, partially
offset by the same factors that impacted net sales.
Operating profit decreased by $55.0 million to
$12.6 million primarily due to the same factors that impacted gross
profit and higher SG&A expenses related to higher incentive
expenses and costs incurred for strategic investments.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $55.9 million to
$49.0 million primarily due to the same factors that impacted
operating profit.
Tax Summary
During the second quarter, we recorded an income
tax rate of 24.9 percent and a tax rate excluding the impact of
adjustments of 25.0 percent. Note that the application of FIN 18
frequently causes fluctuations in our quarterly effective tax
rates. For fiscal 2024, we expect our tax rate to range between 8.0
to 12.0 percent and our tax rate excluding adjustments to range
between 10.0 to 14.0 percent.
Dividend Summary
On June 3, 2024, the Board of Directors declared
quarterly cash dividends of $0.52 per share of Class A Common Stock
and $0.78 per share of Class B Common Stock. Dividends are payable
on July 1, 2024, to stockholders of record at the close of business
on June 18, 2024.
(7) Primary products are manufactured steel,
plastic and fibre drums; new and reconditioned intermediate bulk
containers; jerrycans and other small plastics; linerboard,
containerboard, corrugated sheets and corrugated containers; and
boxboard and tube and core products.

Note: Fiscal 2024 net income guidance, the most
directly comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA, is
not provided in this release due to the potential for one or more
of the following, the timing and magnitude of which we are unable
to reliably forecast: gains or losses on the disposal of businesses
or properties, plants and equipment, net; non-cash asset impairment
charges due to unanticipated changes in the business;
restructuring-related activities; acquisition and integration
related costs; and ongoing initiatives under our Build to Last
strategy. No reconciliation of the 2024 guidance of Adjusted
EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure which excludes restructuring
charges, acquisition and integration related costs, non-cash asset
impairment charges, (gain) loss on the disposal of properties,
plants, equipment and businesses, net, and fiscal year-end change
costs, is included in this release because, due to the high
variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and
projections of some of the excluded information, together with some
of the excluded information not being ascertainable or accessible,
we are unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to
be included in net income, the most directly comparable GAAP
financial measure, without unreasonable efforts. A reconciliation
of the 2024 guidance of adjusted free cash flow to fiscal 2024
forecasted net cash provided by operating activities, the most
directly comparable GAAP financial measure, is included in this
release.

(8) EBITDA is defined as net income, plus
interest expense, net, plus income tax (benefit) expense, plus
depreciation, depletion and amortization. However, because the
Company does not calculate net income by segment, this table
calculates EBITDA by segment with reference to operating profit by
segment, which, as demonstrated in the table of Consolidated
EBITDA, is another method to achieve the same result. See the
reconciliations in the table of Segment EBITDA.
(9) Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income,
plus interest expense, net, plus income tax (benefit) expense, plus
depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, plus acquisition
and integration related costs, plus restructuring charges, plus
non-cash asset impairment charges, plus (gain) loss on disposal of
properties, plants and equipment, net, plus (gain) loss on disposal
of businesses, net, plus fiscal year-end change costs.

(10) Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income,
plus interest expense, net, plus income tax (benefit) expense, plus
depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, plus acquisition
and integration related costs, plus restructuring charges, plus
non-cash asset impairment charges, plus (gain) loss on disposal of
properties, plants and equipment, net, plus (gain) loss on disposal
of businesses, net, plus fiscal year-end change costs. However,
because the Company does not calculate net income by segment, this
table calculates adjusted EBITDA by segment with reference to
operating profit by segment, which, as demonstrated in the table of
consolidated adjusted EBITDA, is another method to achieve the same
result.
