Orora Ltd. has announced its financial results for the fiscal year 2025, reporting an Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) of $262.1 million, marking a 9.5% increase from the previous year. This growth is attributed to the full-year ownership of the Saverglass business, compared to only seven months in the previous fiscal year. The Cans business reported an EBIT of $103.8 million, a slight increase of 0.2%, which includes a $2.1 million bad debt and an additional $5 million in corporate overheads post the sale of OPS. Excluding these items, the EBIT for the Cans business saw a 7.0% increase. In contrast, the Saverglass business within the Global Glass segment experienced a 5.5% decline in EBIT to €79.2 million. The Gawler glass facility’s EBIT dropped significantly by 54% to $25.4 million, influenced by challenges in the commercial wine market in Australia and complications in the G3 furnace rebuild. Orora has completed its strategic transformation to focus on beverage packaging, marked by the divestment of OPS. The company continues to invest in its cans capacity expansion program, with the completion of a second can line at the Revesby site in New South Wales and ongoing installation of a new can line at Rocklea, Queensland. This investment is aimed at meeting expected customer demand through at least 2030. Looking forward, Orora enters FY26 with cautious optimism, backed by market-leading positions in cans, premium and luxury spirits, and wine packaging. The company maintains a strong balance sheet and is committed to shareholder returns through dividends and share buybacks.
