Amcor reported net sales of $6,129 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, up 7% on the prior year. Net income was $242 million, with diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.52 and adjusted diluted EPS of $0.95. Adjusted EBITDA was flat at $883 million. Volumes rose 1%, led by pet food, foodservice, and beauty and wellness. Free cash outflow was $820 million, which the company blamed on resin price volatility linked to the Middle East conflict. Amcor cut its adjusted EPS outlook for the six-month transition period to $1.70–$1.80, from $1.80–$1.90, because higher energy and distribution costs take time to pass on to customers. It expects leverage of about 3.6x at December 31, 2026. The board declared a quarterly dividend of 66.0 cents per share, payable December 16, 2026.

Amcor has partnered with Chinese pet food company Ge Wu An to launch Li Kou, marking the first commercial use of inverted-cup packaging in China. The design features a bottom seal allowing pet owners to peel, flip and lift the pack so contents drop into a bowl intact, eliminating food waste and scraping. The polypropylene cup format addresses common issues with traditional tins, including damaged pull rings, sharp edges and leftover food. It also offers weight and material advantages over aluminium cans, reducing transport costs. Development took over a year through Amcor's Catalyst innovation platform, which connected the companies early in the project. The collaboration combined Ge Wu An's consumer insights with Amcor's packaging expertise to create a solution differentiating through improved user experience.

Amcor is supplying Tiptree, the preserves and spreads business owned by Wilkin & Sons, with packaging films containing certified 30% post-consumer recycled plastic for use in shrink film and pallet stretch wrap. The change covers Amcor's collation shrink film and Bontite Sustane stretch wrap. Tiptree is making the switch ahead of revisions to the UK Plastic Packaging Tax taking effect in April 2027. Under those rules, post-industrial recycled material will no longer qualify towards the 30% minimum recycled plastic requirement, with only PCR content set to count. Production takes place at Amcor's UK facilities in Leominster and Bromborough. Both products hold RecyClass Recycled Plastics Traceability Certification under EN15343, verifying the amount of PCR plastic used and confirming traceability through monitored manufacturing processes.
