Reynolds Consumer Products Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Financial Results; Provides 2026 Outlook

Key Terms

adjusted ebitda financial

Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.

net debt leverage financial

Net debt leverage measures how many years it would take a company to pay off its debt using its normal operating earnings after subtracting cash on hand; mathematically it's the company’s total debt minus cash divided by its annual operating cash profit. Think of it like comparing a household’s mortgage balance (after savings) to its yearly take-home pay — higher numbers mean more financial strain and greater risk to investors, while lower numbers suggest more capacity to weather trouble or borrow for growth.

Realizing Benefits from Strategic Initiatives & Continued Investment

Q4 Earnings Growth Despite Commodity Headwinds

Strong Branded Share Gains

LAKE FOREST, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Reynolds Consumer Products Inc. (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: REYN) today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

“I’m proud of the results our team delivered in a challenging macro environment,” said Scott Huckins, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We gained share, delivered excellent service levels, and reinforced the fundamentals of our U.S.-centric business by executing with discipline, innovating to meet evolving consumer needs, and investing in growth and productivity. Our fourth‑quarter and full‑year results demonstrate the resilience of our business and early results from executing against our priorities.”

Huckins continued, “We enter 2026 well‑positioned, with the team, resources, operating agility, innovation pipeline, and category leadership to navigate dynamic operating conditions.”

Fourth Quarter 2025 Highlights

• Net Revenues of $1,034 million compared to $1,021 million in Q4 2024
  • Retail Net Revenues of $964 million compared to $975 million in Q4 2024
  • Retail volumes decreased 2%, exceeding category performance by 2-points, and flat excluding foam
  • Non-Retail Net Revenues¹ of $70 million compared to $46 million in Q4 2024
• Net Income of $118 million compared to $121 million in Q4 2024, and Adjusted Net Income of $125 million compared to $121 million in Q4 2024

• Earnings Per Share of $0.56 compared to $0.58 in Q4 2024, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share of $0.59 compared to $0.58 in Q4 2024

Net Income decreased to $118 million from $121 million in Q4 2024, driven primarily by $7 million of after-tax CEO transition costs and strategic investments in cost savings and revenue growth initiatives. Adjusted Net Income increased $4 million to $125 million over the year ago quarter. Adjusted EBITDA increased $7 million to $220 million over the year ago period, reflecting pricing actions to recover increased input costs, productivity improvements, and reductions in selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses.

Fourth Quarter Key Business Segment Results

The following is a summary of key fourth quarter results by reportable business unit. All comparisons are with the fourth quarter of 2024.

Reynolds Cooking & Baking

• Net Revenues increased $34 million to $398 million, driven by higher non-retail revenues and pricing to recover input cost increases.
• Retail volume decreased 3%, though sequentially flat, while Reynolds Wrap®, bakeware and parchment drove share gains.
• Adjusted EBITDA was flat at $80 million on better alignment of pricing and input costs, as well as lower operating costs.

Hefty Waste & Storage

• Net Revenues were flat at $250 million, reflecting stronger volumes offset by changes in year-over-year promotional timing and business mix.
• Retail volume increased 3%, driven by strong performance and share gains in both Hefty® waste bags and Hefty® Press to Close food bags.
• Adjusted EBITDA increased $7 million to $76 million, primarily driven by productivity improvements.

Hefty Tableware

• Net Revenues decreased $26 million to $229 million and retail volume decreased 12%, driven primarily by double-digit declines in the foam category.
• Adjusted EBITDA was flat at $52 million due to lower operational costs offset by the impact of lower foam sales.

Presto Products

• Net Revenues increased $14 million to a record $168 million.
• Retail volume increased 10% due to strong share gains in store brand food bags.
• Adjusted EBITDA increased $5 million to a record $36 million, driven by retail volume growth.

Fiscal Year 2025 Highlights

• Net Revenues of $3,721 million compared to $3,695 million in 2024
  • Retail Net Revenues of $3,481 million compared to $3,518 million in 2024
  • Retail volume decreased 2% in total, exceeding category performance by 1-point, and flat excluding foam
  • Non-Retail Revenues¹ of $240 million compared to $177 million in 2024
• Net Income of $301 million compared to $352 million in 2024, and Adjusted Net Income of $345 million compared to $352 million in 2024
• Adjusted EBITDA of $667 million compared to $678 million in 2024
• Earnings Per Share of $1.43 compared to $1.67 in 2024, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share of $1.64 compared to $1.67 in 2024

Net Income was $301 million, including $10 million of after-tax debt refinancing costs in the first quarter and $34 million of after-tax CEO transition costs and strategic investments in cost savings and revenue growth initiatives. Adjusted Net Income was $345 million compared to Adjusted Net Income of $352 million in the comparable prior year period, which included a discrete tax benefit of $10 million in the second quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA was $667 million, compared to $678 million in the comparable prior year period. The decline was driven by lower retail sales volumes, including retailer inventory destocking and foam category declines, as well as higher operational costs, partially offset by pricing actions to fully recover higher input costs and lower selling general and administrative costs, which included the benefit of cost reduction initiatives.

The Company reduced Net Debt Leverage² from 2.3x on December 31, 2024 to 2.1x on December 31, 2025, at the low-end of our stated target leverage range of 2.0 to 2.5x.

2Net Debt is defined as current portion of long-term debt plus long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents. Net Debt Leverage is defined as Net Debt divided by Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDA. See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for additional information.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights

Cash and cash equivalents were $147 million at December 31, 2025, and debt was $1,580 million, resulting in net debt of $1,433 million. Net Debt Leverage was 2.1x on December 31, 2025.

Operating cash flow was $477 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $489 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, reflecting working capital improvements to offset the impact of commodities and tariffs, and fund investments in strategic initiatives.

Capital expenditures were $161 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $120 million in the prior year, reflecting increased investments in automation and productivity to expand margins and support additional growth.

“Over the course of 2025, we drove cost reduction and productivity initiatives across all parts of our business in a dynamic environment, including pricing, operational improvements, and targeted SG&A reductions,” said Nathan Lowe, Chief Financial Officer. “As we look ahead, our priority is to further realize the benefits of the numerous initiatives we launched in 2025 and continue to invest in the business to deliver sustainable earnings growth that drives long-term shareholder value.”

Fiscal Year 2026 and First Quarter 2026 Outlook

Beginning in Q1 2026, we will realign category organization across the Hefty Waste & Storage and Presto segments, consolidating waste bags in one business and food bags and storage in another to increase efficiencies, sharpen the focus on innovation, and establish a structure to better unlock growth opportunities.

Full-year 2026 Net Revenues are expected to be -3% to +1% compared to 2025 Net Revenues of $3,721 million.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use non-GAAP financial measures “Adjusted EBITDA,” “Adjusted Net Income,” “Adjusted Earnings Per Share,” “Net Debt,” “Net Debt to Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDA,” and “Free Cash Flow” in evaluating our past results and future prospects. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, plus the sum of income tax expense, net interest expense, debt refinancing expense, depreciation and amortization, costs to execute strategic initiatives, CEO transition costs, as well as other non-recurring costs. We define Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share (“Adjusted EPS”) as Net Income and Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) calculated in accordance with GAAP, plus debt refinancing costs, costs to execute strategic initiatives, CEO transition costs, as well as other non-recurring costs. We define Net Debt as the current portion of long-term debt plus long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents. We define Net Debt to Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDA as Net Debt (as defined above) as of the end of the period to Adjusted EBITDA (as defined above) for the period. We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities in the period minus the acquisition of property, plant and equipment in the period.

We present Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our management team to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions. In addition, our chief operating decision maker uses Adjusted EBITDA of each reportable segment to evaluate the operating performance of such segments. We use Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share as supplemental measures to evaluate our business’ performance in a way that also considers our ability to generate profit without the impact of certain items. We use Net Debt as we believe it is a more representative measure of our liquidity. We use Net Debt to Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDA because it reflects our ability to service our debt obligations. We use Free Cash Flow because it measures our ability to generate additional cash from our business operations. Accordingly, we believe presenting these measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management team and board of directors.

Non-GAAP information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as or comparable to similar non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies.

Guidance for first quarter and fiscal year 2026, where adjusted, is provided on a non-GAAP basis. Please see reconciliations of non-GAAP measures used in this release to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, beginning on the following page.
