Smurfit Westrock’s net sales increased by $305 million, to $23,904 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2026, from $23,599 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Net income attributable to common shareholders decreased by $226 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and was primarily impacted by higher cost of goods sold, including increased freight and energy costs, higher depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, as well as the impact of accelerated depreciation for machine closures and adverse weather incurred in the first quarter of 2026. Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $354 million, to $1,843 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2026, from $2,197 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, primarily due to a $165 million decrease in net income adjusted for non-cash items, primarily including depreciation, depletion and amortization, impairment of assets, cash surrender value increase in excess of premiums paid, share-based compensation expense, deferred income tax benefit, and pension and other postretirement funding more than cost.
