Sealed Air Corporation (NYSE: SEE) reported fourth-quarter results that exceeded analyst expectations, driven by cost efficiencies and favorable currency movements.
The company posted adjusted earnings per share of $0.77, ahead of the $0.73 consensus estimate.
Revenue totaled $1.4 billion, surpassing the $1.34 billion analyst forecast and marking a 2.1% increase from $1.37 billion in the prior-year quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA rose to $278 million, representing 19.8% of net sales, compared with $271 million, or 19.7% of net sales, in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Performance improvements were supported by lower operating costs stemming from productivity initiatives and favorable currency impacts. These gains were partially offset by unfavorable net price realization across both segments and lower Food segment volumes.
For full-year 2025, Sealed Air reported revenue of $5.36 billion, slightly below $5.39 billion in 2024. Adjusted earnings per share increased to $3.34 from $3.14, primarily reflecting lower interest expense and improved adjusted EBITDA.
Within segments, Food sales reached $937 million in the fourth quarter, up 2% as reported but down 1% on a constant currency basis due to volume softness. The Protective segment recorded $464 million in sales, increasing 3% as reported and 1% on a constant currency basis.
