SILGAN ANNOUNCES BINDING OFFER TO
ACQUIRE ALBEA’S DISPENSING BUSINESS
Proposed Acquisition Further Broadens Closures Franchise
Investor Conference Call at 9:00 a.m. ET on January 27, 2020
STAMFORD, Connecticut, January 27, 2020 — Silgan Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq:SLGN), a leading supplier of rigid packaging for consumer goods products, announced today that it has signed a binding offer to acquire Albea’s dispensing business for $900 million. This business is a leading global supplier of highly engineered pumps, sprayers and foam dispensing solutions to major branded consumer goods product companies in the Beauty and Personal Care markets. It operates a global network of 10 plants across North America, Europe, South America and Asia. For the fiscal year ended 2018, this business generated sales of approximately $383 million.
The proposed acquisition is expected to close in the first half of 2020 and is subject to the receipt of applicable regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of certain customary conditions. Upon completion of the required works councils consultations, Silgan expects that Albea and certain of its subsidiaries will enter into a definitive purchase agreement with Silgan and certain of its subsidiaries for the purchase and sale of the business.

“This proposed acquisition would significantly enhance the scope and breadth of our market leading closures franchise by bringing new products and capabilities in the highly engineered dispensing category, such as fine lotion dispensing solutions for skin care,” said Tony Allott, Chairman and CEO. “The Albea dispensing business is a ‘hand-in-glove’ fit with our closures business. Like Silgan, this business has a long history as a differentiated packaging franchise with deep customer relationships and a strong track record of product innovation to meet customer needs. This proposed acquisition would allow us to expand relationships and product offerings with global customers, bring new customer relationships and provide cost synergy opportunities of $20 million. It would also create an incremental platform for growth and strongly enhance our free cash flow,” continued Mr. Allott. “We believe this business, like Silgan, holds similar passions for excellence in customer support, quality, safety and competitive franchise positions, while maintaining a strong focus on returns and free cash flow,” concluded Mr. Allott.
The purchase price for this proposed acquisition would be subject to customary adjustments to be outlined in the purchase agreement. Silgan expects to fund the purchase price for this proposed acquisition with a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under the Company’s senior secured credit facility, including a committed incremental delayed draw term loan.
Highlights of the proposed transaction:
| • | Market Focus: Following the proposed acquisition, Silgan would expand its position in the dispensing markets to include highly engineered foam pumps, fine mist pumps, lotion pumps, samplers and fragrance caps and closures for personal care and beauty products. |
| • | Synergies: Silgan expects to realize operational cost synergies of $20 million, on an annual run rate basis, within 18 months following the proposed acquisition. These synergies would be achieved primarily through reductions in general and administrative expenses, procurement savings and manufacturing efficiencies. |
| • | Financial Impact: Silgan expects this proposed acquisition to be accretive to earnings and free cash flow per share in 2020, excluding the impact of purchase accounting adjustments. |
| • | Financing: Pro forma for this proposed acquisition, Silgan’s net leverage ratio under its senior secured credit facility would be approximately 4.0 times, which is consistent with |

Such forward looking statements are made based upon management’s expectations and beliefs concerning future events impacting the Company and therefore involve a number of uncertainties and risks, including, but not limited to, those described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2018 and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Therefore, the actual results of operations or financial condition of the Company could differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements.

Forward Looking Statements & Non-GAAP Measures This presentation, and the statements made during the course of this presentation, are not intended to and do not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to subscribe for or buy or an invitation to purchase or subscribe for any securities. Statements made in or during the course of this presentation which are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are made based upon management’s expectations, assumptions, beliefs, estimates and projections, many of which by their nature are inherently uncertain and beyond Silgan’s control. Accordingly, such forward-looking statements are not guarantees or promises of future performance or events and involve known and unknown risks that could cause such future performance or events to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. Additionally, such forward-looking statements only speak as of the date of this presentation, and except to the extent required by the U.S. federal securities laws, Silgan neither assumes nor undertakes any obligation to update or revise any of such forward-looking statements. You are advised to read and consider the numerous risks and uncertainties described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Generally accepted accounting principles in the United States are commonly referred to as GAAP. A non-GAAP financial measure is generally defined as a financial measure that purports to measure financial performance but excludes or includes amounts that could not be so adjusted in the most comparable GAAP measure. EBITDA, EBITDA for the Closures Segment, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA for the Closures Segment, EBITDA for Albea Dispensing and Adjusted EBITDA for Albea Dispensing and the ratios and margins calculated therefrom as contained in this presentation are unaudited supplemental measures of financial performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP and therefore are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to income before interest and income taxes, net income and segment income or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Such non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any financial data prepared in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. We include such non-GAAP financial measures in this presentation because we consider them to be important supplemental measures of financial performance which we believe provide a more complete understanding than could be obtained absent such non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of all non-GAAP financial measures used in this presentation to the most comparable GAAP financial data is included in this presentation in the Appendix. The following non-GAAP financial measures are used in this presentation and are defined as follows. “EBITDA” means income before interest and income taxes plus depreciation and amortization (D&A). “Adjusted EBITDA” means EBITDA as adjusted for rationalization charges. “EBITDA” for the Closures Segment means segment income plus depreciation and amortization (D&A) for our Closures Segment. “Adjusted EBITDA” for the Closures Segment means EBITDA as adjusted for rationalization charges for our Closures Segment. “EBITDA” for Albea Dispensing means income before interest and income taxes plus depreciation and amortization (D&A) for Albea Dispensing. “Adjusted EBITDA” for Albea Dispensing means EBITDA as adjusted for mold startup costs and reorganization charges for Albea Dispensing. All company names and trademarks used in this presentation are the property of their respective owners and are used in this presentation for identification purposes only.
