What Amcor does

Global packaging company making flexible and rigid plastic/paper packaging for food, beverage, healthcare and personal care.

Sells packaging to consumer-goods makers under long-term supply agreements, with resin price changes largely passed through to customers, so profit depends on volumes and conversion margins more than resin cost. Formed through the 2019 purchase of Bemis, it is Jersey-incorporated with listings in New York and Sydney, and merged with Berry Global in 2025.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
