We are reporting, for the quarter, Net Income of $98 million and Adjusted EBITDA1<\/sup> of $1,172 million, with an Adjusted EBITDA Margin1<\/sup> of 15.5% with a strong Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities of $1,195 million and Adjusted Free Cash Flow1<\/sup> of $679 million.<\/p>\n\n\u201cIn 2025, we established a strong foundation for Smurfit Westrock. We exceeded our committed synergy target of $400 million and put in place a series of customer-centric, commercial and operating initiatives. We also reduced loss making businesses and closed approximately 600,000 tons of high-cost or inefficient capacity as we continued to focus on portfolio optimization. During the year, we further reduced headcount by over 3,000, while continuing to invest significantly behind our customers, in our asset base and operating efficiency. We will outline the expected benefits of the actions we have taken, and future actions, for the medium-term, during our earnings call later today.<\/p>\n \n\u201cFor our North America region, performance in the quarter reflects the impact of additional downtime taken to balance our system and actively manage working capital. As we continue to transition to a value-based selling approach, our corrugated businesses are already achieving a better business mix and are winning significant new business, setting a strong platform for the future. For our consumer business, while there are near-term capacity issues (primarily within SBS), we believe our strong and continued focus on efficiency, innovation and asset optimization together with an experienced management team positions this business for future performance.<\/p>\n \n\u201cFor our EMEA and APAC region, our leading, integrated platform with strong market positions again delivered an outstanding performance. We continue to believe that our business within this region is optimally positioned for a strong, future recovery.<\/p>\n \n\u201cThe performance of our LATAM region reflects the strength of our market positions and the benefits of growth projects already completed. LATAM continues to be a region of significant growth and opportunity.<\/p>\n \n\u201cDuring 2025, we made significant progress in establishing a performance-led culture, optimizing our operating model, and adopting a sharper, customer-centric focus. Through the quality of our people, along with our innovation and sustainability expertise, we are increasingly excited about our future. As we will outline later on, through our Medium\u2011Term Plan, we have targeted an accelerated path to growth. With regard to current trading, while we have experienced significant weather events in North America and Europe, we see a generally better industry operating environment, which positions us well for continued performance in 2026. For the first quarter, we currently expect to deliver Adjusted EBITDA3<\/sup> of between $1.1 billion and $1.2 billion and for the full year, we currently expect to deliver Adjusted EBITDA3 <\/sup>of between $5.0 billion and $5.3 billion.\u201d<\/p>\nDividend<\/b><\/p>\n \nSmurfit Westrock plc announced on February 3, 2026 that its Board approved a quarterly dividend of $0.4523 per share on its ordinary shares.

Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about the beliefs and expectations of the management of the Company, are forward-looking statements. Words such as \u201cmay\u201d, \u201cwill\u201d, \u201ccould\u201d, \u201cshould\u201d, \u201cwould\u201d, \u201canticipate\u201d, \u201cintend\u201d, \u201cestimate\u201d, \u201cproject\u201d, \u201cplan\u201d, \u201cbelieve\u201d, \u201cexpect\u201d, \u201ctarget\u201d, \u201cprospects\u201d, \u201cpotential\u201d, \u201ccommit\u201d, \u201cforecasts\u201d, \u201caims\u201d, \u201cconsidered\u201d, \u201clikely\u201d and variations of these words and similar future or conditional expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. While the Company believes these expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections are reasonable, such forward-looking statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to events and depend upon future circumstances that may or may not occur. Actual results may differ materially from the current expectations of the Company depending upon a number of factors affecting its business, including risks associated with the integration and performance of the Company following the Combination. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from plans, estimates or expectations include: our ability to deliver on our medium-term plan; changes in demand environment; our ability to deliver on our closure plan and associated efforts; our future cash payments associated with these initiatives; potential future cost savings associated with such initiatives; the amount of charges and the timing of such charges or actions described herein; potential future impairment charges; accuracy of assumptions associated with the charges; economic, competitive and market conditions generally, including macroeconomic uncertainty, customer inventory rebalancing, the impact of inflation and increases in energy, raw materials, shipping, labor and capital equipment costs; geo-economic fragmentation and protectionism such as tariffs, trade wars or similar governmental actions affecting the flows of goods, services or currency (including the implementation of tariffs by the US federal government and reciprocal tariffs and other protectionist or retaliatory measures governments in Europe, Asia, and other countries have taken or may take in response); the impact of prolonged or recurring U.S. federal government shutdowns and any resulting volatility in the capital markets or interruptions in the Company\u2019s access to capital; the impact of public health crises, such as pandemics and epidemics and any related company or governmental policies and actions to protect the health and safety of individuals or governmental policies or actions to maintain the functioning of national or global economies and markets; reduced supply of raw materials, energy and transportation, including from supply chain disruptions and labor shortages; developments related to pricing cycles and volumes; intense competition; the ability of the Company to successfully recover from a disaster or other business continuity problem due to a hurricane, flood, earthquake, terrorist attack, war, pandemic, security breach, cyber-attack, power loss, telecommunications failure or other natural or man-made events, including the ability to function remotely during long-term disruptions; the Company’s ability to respond to changing customer preferences and to protect intellectual property; the amount and timing of the Company’s capital expenditures; risks related to international sales and operations; failures in the Company’s quality control measures and systems resulting in faulty or contaminated products; cybersecurity risks, including threats to the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data in the Company’s systems; works stoppages and other labor disputes; the Company\u2019s ability to establish and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, and remediate any weaknesses in controls and processes; the Company’s ability to retain or hire key personnel; risks related to sustainability matters, including climate change and scarce resources, as well as the Company’s ability to comply with changing environmental laws and regulations; the Company’s ability to successfully implement strategic transformation initiatives; results and impacts of acquisitions by the Company; the Company’s significant levels of indebtedness; the impact of the Combination on the Company’s credit ratings; the potential impairment of assets and goodwill; the availability of sufficient cash to distribute dividends to the Company’s shareholders in line with current expectations; the scope, costs, timing and impact of any restructuring of operations and corporate and tax structure; evolving legal, regulatory and tax regimes; changes in economic, financial, political and regulatory conditions in Ireland, the United Kingdom, the United States and elsewhere, and other factors that contribute to uncertainty and volatility, natural and man-made disasters, civil unrest, geopolitical uncertainty, and conditions that may result from legislative, regulatory, trade and policy changes associated with the current or subsequent Irish, US or UK administrations; legal proceedings instituted against the Company; actions by third parties, including government agencies; the Company’s ability to promptly and effectively integrate Smurfit Kappa’s and WestRock’s businesses; the Company’s ability to achieve the synergies and value creation contemplated by the Combination; the Company’s ability to meet expectations regarding the accounting and tax treatments of the Combination, including the risk that the Internal Revenue Service may assert that the Company should be treated as a US corporation or be subject to certain unfavorable US federal income tax rules under Section 7874 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, as a result of the Combination; other factors such as future market conditions, currency fluctuations, the behavior of other market participants, the actions of regulators and other factors such as changes in the political, social and regulatory framework in which the Company’s group operates or in economic or technological trends or conditions, and other risk factors included in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company\u2019s Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2025. Neither the Company nor any of its associates or directors, officers or advisers provides any representation, assurance or guarantee that the occurrence of the events expressed or implied in any such forward-looking statements will actually occur. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Other than in accordance with its legal or regulatory obligations (including under the UK Listing Rules, the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules, the UK Market Abuse Regulation and other applicable regulations), the Company is under no obligation, and the Company expressly disclaims any intention or obligation, to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.<\/p>\n \n\n| ____________________<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n 1<\/sup> Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Basic EPS are non-GAAP measures.

For the January 1, 2024 \u2013 July 5, 2024 time period, these results reflect the historical financial results of legacy Smurfit Kappa Group plc, which is considered the accounting acquirer in the combination between Smurfit Kappa Group plc and WestRock Company, which closed on July 5, 2024.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n| \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n \n3 Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. We have not reconciled Adjusted EBITDA outlook to the most comparable GAAP outlook because it is not possible to do so without unreasonable efforts due to the uncertainty and potential variability of reconciling items, which are dependent on future events and often outside of management\u2019s control and which could be significant. Because such items cannot be reasonably predicted with the level of precision required, we are unable to provide an outlook for the comparable GAAP measure (net income).<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n About Smurfit Westrock<\/b><\/p>\n \nSmurfit Westrock is a leading provider of paper-based packaging solutions in the world, with approximately 97,000 employees across 40 countries.<\/p>\n \n\n| \n Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited)<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n| \n (in millions, except per share data)<\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n | \n | \n | \n | \n | \n\u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n | \n\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n Three months ended

financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). However, management believes certain non-GAAP financial measures provide Smurfit Westrock\u2019s Board of directors, investors, potential investors, securities analysts and others with additional meaningful financial information that should be considered when assessing its ongoing performance. Smurfit Westrock management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions, and in evaluating company performance. Non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation of or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP and should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the GAAP results. The non\u2011GAAP financial measures we present may differ from similarly captioned measures presented by other companies. Smurfit Westrock uses the non-GAAP financial measures \u201cAdjusted EBITDA\u201d, \u201cAdjusted EBITDA Margin\u201d, \u201cAdjusted Free Cash Flow\u201d and \u201cAdjusted Basic Earnings Per Share\u201d (referred to as \u201cAdjusted Basic EPS\u201d). We discuss below details of the non-GAAP financial measures presented by us and provide reconciliations of these non\u2011GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.<\/p>\n Definitions<\/b><\/p>\n \nSmurfit Westrock uses the non-GAAP financial measures \u201cAdjusted EBITDA\u201d and \u201cAdjusted EBITDA Margin\u201d to evaluate its overall performance. The composition of Adjusted EBITDA is not addressed or prescribed by GAAP. Smurfit Westrock defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income before income tax expense, depreciation, depletion and amortization, interest expense, net, pension and other postretirement non-service income (expense), net, share\u2011based compensation expense, other expense, net, impairment and restructuring costs, transaction and integration-related expenses associated with the Combination, amortization of fair value step up on inventory and other specific items that management believes are not indicative of the ongoing operating results of the business.<\/p>\n \nManagement believes Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin measures provide Smurfit Westrock\u2019s management, Board of directors, investors, potential investors, securities analysts and others with useful information to evaluate Smurfit Westrock\u2019s performance relative to other periods because it adjusts out non\u2011recurring items that management believes are not indicative of the ongoing results of the business. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Net Sales.<\/p>\n \nSmurfit Westrock uses the non-GAAP financial measure \u201cAdjusted Free Cash Flow\u201d. Smurfit Westrock defines Adjusted Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities as adjusted for capital expenditures and to exclude certain costs not reflective of underlying ongoing operations. Management utilizes this measure in connection with managing Smurfit Westrock\u2019s business and believes that Adjusted Free Cash Flow is useful to investors as a liquidity measure because it measures the amount of cash generated that is available, after reinvesting in the business, to maintain a strong balance sheet, pay dividends, repurchase stock, service debt and make investments for future growth. It should not be inferred that the entire free cash flow amount is available for discretionary expenditures. By adjusting for certain items that are not indicative of Smurfit Westrock\u2019s underlying operational performance, Smurfit Westrock believes that Adjusted Free Cash Flow also enables investors to perform meaningful comparisons between past and present periods.<\/p>\n \nSmurfit Westrock uses the non-GAAP financial measure \u201cAdjusted Basic EPS\u201d. Management believes this measure provides Smurfit Westrock\u2019s management, Board of directors, investors, potential investors, securities analysts and others with useful information to evaluate Smurfit Westrock\u2019s performance because it excludes, impairment and restructuring costs, transaction and integration-related expenses associated with the Combination, amortization of fair value step up on inventory and other specific items that management believes are not indicative of the ongoing operating results of the business. Smurfit Westrock and its Board of directors use this information when making financial, operating and planning decisions and when evaluating Smurfit Westrock\u2019s performance relative to other periods. Smurfit Westrock believes that the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Adjusted Basic EPS is Basic earnings per share attributable to common shareholders (referred to as \u201cBasic EPS\u201d).<\/p>\n Reconciliations to Most Comparable GAAP Measure<\/b><\/p>\n \nSet forth below is a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin to
