CHARLOTTE, N.C., November 4, 2025 – Sealed Air Corporation (NYSE: SEE) announced third quarter 2025 financial results and business updates.
“Our third quarter performance reflects our ability to control the controllables against a challenging market backdrop. We made further progress on our transformation, which drove a positive inflection in Protective’s material volumes for the first time since 2021. We remain laser focused on putting our customers first, executing with urgency and maximizing shareholder value,” said Dustin Semach, Sealed Air’s President and CEO.
“We exceeded expectations across all metrics this quarter. Given our trajectory heading into the fourth quarter, we are tightening our outlook ranges and raising the mid-point of both Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS for the full year, despite weaker market conditions putting further pressure on volumes in the fourth quarter and increasing uncertainty as we head into 2026,” said Kristen Actis-Grande, Sealed Air's CFO.

Third Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights
Net sales of $1.35 billion increased less than 1% as reported, with the Food segment up 1% and the Protective segment down 1% in the quarter. Net sales decreased $12 million, or 1%, on a constant currency basis. Volumes decreased by $9 million, or less than 1% in the quarter. Price was unfavorable by $3 million, or less than 1% in the quarter.
Income tax expense was $(70) million, or an effective tax rate of (60.5)% in the quarter. This compares to income tax expense of $31 million, or an effective tax rate of 25.7%, in the prior year. The current quarter effective tax rate was favorably impacted by the reversal of accruals for uncertain tax positions in the U.S. associated with the resolution of an IRS audit. The Adjusted Tax Rate was 23.9% in the quarter, as compared to 24.0% in the prior year.
Net earnings were $186 million, or $1.26 per diluted share, as compared to net earnings of $89 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, in the prior year. The current year results were favorably impacted by $57 million of Special Items income, compared to $27 million of unfavorable impacts of Special Items expense in the prior year. The favorable impacts of Special Items in the quarter were primarily driven by income tax items, partially offset by higher restructuring expenses and other charges that are considered one-time or infrequent.
Adjusted EBITDA was $287 million, or 21.3% of net sales, as compared to $276 million, or 20.5% in the prior year. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to lower operating costs driven by productivity benefits, partially offset by unfavorable net price realization and lower volume.
Adjusted earnings per diluted share increased 10% to $0.87, from $0.79 in the prior year, primarily due to higher Adjusted EBITDA and lower interest expense.
Business Segment Highlights
Third quarter net sales in Food were $910 million, or up 1% as reported. Currency fluctuations had a favorable impact of $12 million, or 1%. On a constant currency basis, net sales were flat. Price had a favorable impact of $1 million, or less than 1%. Volumes decreased $1 million, or less than 1%, primarily resulting from softness in the North American market, partially offset by share gains in the EMEA region. Adjusted EBITDA of $215 million, or 23.6% of net sales, increased 4% from $206 million, or 22.9% of net sales in the prior year. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was due to lower operating costs partly attributable to productivity benefits and cost reductions, partially offset by unfavorable net price realization and lower volume.
Third quarter net sales in Protective were $442 million, a decrease of 1% as reported. Currency fluctuations had a favorable impact of $6 million, or 1%. On a constant currency basis, net sales decreased $12 million, or 3%. Volumes decreased $7 million, or 2%, resulting from softness in equipment sales given the ongoing sluggishness in the industrial markets. Price had an unfavorable impact of $5 million, or 1%. Adjusted EBITDA of $78 million, or 17.7% of net sales, increased 3% from $75 million, or 16.9% of net sales in the prior year. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to lower operating costs mainly driven by productivity benefits and cost reductions, partially offset by unfavorable net price realization and lower volume.
Cash Flow and Net Debt
Cash flow from operating activities during the first nine months of 2025 was a source of $334 million, as compared to a source of $484 million during the prior year period. The decrease in cash flow from operating activities primarily reflects higher incentive compensation and tax payments made in 2025, compared to the prior year period.
Capital expenditures in the first nine months of 2025 were $134 million, as compared to $161 million during the prior year period. Free Cash Flow, defined as net cash from operating activities less capital expenditures, was a source of $201 million for the first nine months of 2025, as compared to a source of $323 million during the prior year period.
Dividend payments for the first nine months of both 2025 and 2024 were $89 million.
Total debt was $4.2 billion as of September 30, 2025 and $4.4 billion as of December 31, 2024. Net Debt, defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents, was $3.9 billion as of September 30, 2025 and $4.0 billion as of December 31, 2024. As of September 30, 2025, Sealed Air had approximately $1.3 billion of available liquidity comprised of $282 million of cash and $994 million of available and unused lines of credit under our
| 2 | |||||||
committed credit facilities. The net leverage ratio, defined as net debt divided by last twelve months Adjusted EBITDA, was 3.5x and 3.6x as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
