Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 concerning our business, consolidated financial condition, results of operations orand cash flows. The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) encourages companies to disclose forward-looking statements so that investors can better understand a company’s future prospects and make informed investment decisions. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside our control, which could cause actual results to differ materially from these statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be identified by such words as “anticipate,” “believe,” “plan,” “assume,” “could,” “should,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “potential,” “seek,” “predict,” “may,” “will” and similar references to future periods. All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this report regarding our strategies, prospects, financial condition, operations, costs, plans and objectives are forward-looking statements. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, statements we make regarding expected future operating results, expectations regarding the results of restructuring and other programs, expectations regarding future impacts resulting from the Liquibox acquisition, anticipated levels of capital expenditures and expectations of the effect on our financial condition of claims, litigation, environmental costs, contingent liabilities and governmental and regulatory investigations and proceedings.

The following are important factors that we believe could cause actual results to differ materially from those in our forward-looking statements: global economic and political conditions, including recessionary and inflationary pressures, currency translation and devaluation effects, changes in raw material pricing and availability, competitive conditions, the success of new product offerings, failure to realize synergies and other financial benefits from the acquisition of Liquibox within the expected time frames, greater than expected costs or difficulties related to the integration of Liquibox, consumer preferences, the effects of animal and food-related health issues, the effects of epidemics or pandemics, including the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), negative impacts related to the ongoing ~~conflicts~~conflict between Russia and Ukraine and related sanctions, export restrictions and other counteractions thereto, changes in energy costs, environmental matters, the success of our restructuring activities, the success of our merger, acquisition and equity investment strategies, the success of our financial growth, profitability, cash generation and manufacturing strategies and our cost reduction and productivity efforts, changes in our credit ratings, the tax benefit associated with the Settlement agreement (as defined in Note 18 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this report), regulatory actions and legal matters, and the other information referenced in Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors", of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021~~2022 as filed with the SEC, and in any of our subsequent SEC filings. Any forward-looking statement made by us ~~in this report~~ is based only on information currently available to us and speaks only as of the date on which it is made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

Basis of Presentation

Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all of the accounts of the Company and our subsidiaries. We have eliminated all significant intercompany transactions and balances in consolidation. In management’s opinion, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair statement of our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022 ~~and 2021~~ have been made. The results set forth in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, ~~2021~~2022 was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. All amounts are in millions, except per share amounts, and approximate due to rounding. All amounts are presented in U.S. dollar, unless otherwise specified.

Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with the interim reporting requirements of the SEC. As permitted under those rules, annual footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The preparation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and the disclosure of contingent amounts in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

We are responsible for the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes included in this report. As these are condensed financial statements, they should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2021~~2022 (“~~2021~~2022 Form 10-K”), which was filed with the SEC on February ~~22, 2022,~~21, 2023, and with the information contained in our other publicly available filings with the SEC.

When we cross reference to a “Note,” we are referring to our “Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements,” unless the context indicates otherwise.

There were no significant changes to our significant accounting policies as disclosed in “Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recently Issued Accounting Standards” of our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our ~~2021~~2022 Form 10-K.

Impact of Highly Inflationary Economy

~~Argentina~~

Argentina

Economic and political events in Argentina have continued to expose us to heightened levels of foreign currency exchange risk. As of July 1, 2018, Argentina was designated as a highly inflationary economy under U.S. GAAP, and the U.S. dollar replaced the Argentine peso as the functional currency for our subsidiaries in Argentina. All Argentine peso-denominated monetary assets and liabilities were remeasured into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rate available to us. The impact of any changes in the exchange rate are reflected within Other ~~(expense) income,~~expense, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recorded ~~$2.7~~$2.6 million and ~~$3.7~~$1.0 million of remeasurement losses for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, ~~and $0.5 million and $1.9 million of remeasurement losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.~~related to our subsidiaries in Argentina.

Note 2 Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Standards

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In ~~July 2021,~~September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ~~Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-05, Leases (Topic 842)~~ASU 2022-04, Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): ~~Lessors - Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments (“~~Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations ("ASU ~~2021-05”~~2022-04"). ASU ~~2021-05~~2022-04 requires the buyer in a ~~lessor~~supplier finance program to ~~classify a lease with variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate as an operating lease at commencement if~~disclose qualitative and quantitative information about the ~~lease would have been classified as a sales-type or direct financing lease and the lessor would have recognized a selling loss at lease commencement.~~program. The Company adopted ASU ~~2021-05~~2022-04 on January 1, ~~2022.~~2023, except for the amendment on rollforward information, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The adoption did not ~~have a material~~materially impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

~~Recently Issued Accounting Standards~~

~~In November 2021,~~We facilitate a voluntary supply chain financing program to provide some of our suppliers with the ~~FASB issued ASU 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures~~opportunity to sell receivables due from us (our accounts payables) to participating financial institutions at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institutions. This program is administered by ~~Business Entities about Government Assistance ("ASU 2021-10"). ASU 2021-10 requires business entities~~participating financial institutions. When a supplier utilizes the supply chain financing program, the supplier receives a payment in advance of agreed payment terms from the financial institution, net of a discount charged. Our responsibility is limited to ~~disclose information about certain types~~making payments to the respective financial institutions on the terms originally negotiated with our supplier. No assets are pledged as collateral by the Company or any of ~~government assistance received~~our subsidiaries under the program. The majority of suppliers using the program are on 120 day payment terms after the end of the month in which the invoice was issued. We monitor our days payable outstanding relative to our peers and industry trends in order to assess our conclusion that the program continues to be a trade payable program and not indicative of a borrowing arrangement. The liabilities continue to be presented as Accounts payable in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets until they are paid, and they are reflected as Cash flows from operating activities when settled. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our accounts payable balances included $118 million and $140 million, respectively, related to invoices from suppliers participating in the notes to the financial statements. ASU 2021-10 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. We do not believe that the adoption of ASU 2021-10 will have an impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements with the exception of new disclosures, if government assistance provided to the Company were to be material in the future.program.

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers ("ASU 2021-08"). The new guidance requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The standard will not impact acquired contract assets or liabilities from business combinations occurring prior to the adoption date. The Company adopted ASU 2021-08 ~~is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early~~on January 1, 2023. The adoption ~~permitted. The~~did not have a material impact ~~of adoption~~ on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial ~~Statements will be prospective only and will depend on the magnitude of any future business acquisitions.~~Statements.

Note 3 Revenue Recognition, Contracts with Customers

Description of Revenue Generating Activities

We employ sales, marketing and customer service personnel throughout the world who sell and market our equipment and systems, products, and services to and/or through a large number of distributors, fabricators, converters, ~~eCommerce~~e-commerce and mail order fulfillment firms, and contract packaging firms as well as directly to end-users such as food processors, food service businesses, supermarket retailers, pharmaceutical companies, healthcare facilities, medical device manufacturers, and other manufacturers.

As discussed in Note 6, “Segments,” our reporting segments are Food and Protective. Our Food applications are largely sold directly to end customers, while our Protective products are sold through business supply distributors and directly to end customers.

Food:

Food solutions are sold to food processors in fresh red meat, smoked and processed meats, poultry, seafood, plant-based, fluids and ~~dairy (solid~~liquids, and ~~liquids)~~cheese markets worldwide. Food offers integrated packaging materials and automated equipment solutions to

increase food safety, extend shelf life, reduce food waste, automate processes and optimize total cost. Its materials, automated equipment and service enables customers to reduce costs and enhance their brands in the marketplace.

Food solutions are utilized by food service businesses (such as restaurants and entertainment venues) (“food service”) and food retailers (such as grocery stores and supermarkets) (“food retail”), among others. Solutions serving the food service market include products such as barrier bags and pouches, and are primarily marketed under the CRYOVAC® trademark and other highly recognized trade names including CRYOVAC® brand Barrier Bags, CRYOVAC® brand Form-Fill-Seal Films, ~~and~~ CRYOVAC® brand Auto Pouch ~~System.~~Systems and LIQUIBOX® fluids and liquids systems. Solutions serving the food retail market include products such as barrier bags, film, and trays, and are primarily marketed under the CRYOVAC® trademark and other highly recognized trade names including CRYOVAC® brand Grip & TearTM, CRYOVAC® brand Darfresh®, OptiDure™, Simple Steps®, and CRYOVAC® brand Barrier Bags.

Protective:

Protective packaging solutions are utilized across many global markets to protect goods during transit and are especially valuable to ~~eCommerce,~~e-commerce, consumer goods, pharmaceutical and medical devices and industrial manufacturing. Protective solutions are designed to increase our customers' packaging velocity, minimize packaging waste, reduce labor dependencies and address dimensional weight challenges.

Protective solutions are sold through a strategic network of distributors as well as directly to our customers, including, but not limited to, fabricators, original equipment manufacturers, contract manufacturers, logistics partners and ~~eCommerce/~~e-commerce/fulfillment operations. Protective solutions are marketed under SEALED AIR® brand, BUBBLE WRAP® brand, AUTOBAG® brand and other highly recognized trade names and product families including BUBBLE WRAP® brand inflatable packaging, SEALED AIR® brand performance shrink films, AUTOBAG® brand bagging systems, Instapak® polyurethane foam packaging solutions and Korrvu® suspension and retention packaging. In addition, we provide temperature assurance packaging solutions under the KevothermalTM and TempGuardTM brands.

Other Revenue Recognition Considerations:

Charges for rebates and other allowances are recognized as a deduction from revenue on an accrual basis in the period in which the associated revenue is recorded. Revenue recognized from performance obligations satisfied in previous reporting periods ~~were nominal~~was $0.8 million and $0.2 million for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, ~~respectively, and $1.0 million and $0.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021,~~ respectively.

The Company does not adjust consideration in contracts with customers for the effects of a significant financing component if the Company expects that the period between transfer of a good or service and payment for that good or service will be one year or less. This is expected to be the case for the majority of the Company's contracts.

Lease components within contracts with customers are recognized in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842.

Contract Balances

The time when a performance obligation is satisfied and the time when billing and payment occur are generally closely aligned, subject to agreed payment terms, with the exception of equipment accruals, which can be used to purchase both automated and standard range equipment. An equipment accrual is a contract offering, whereby a customer is incentivized to use a portion of the materials transaction price for future equipment purchases. Long-term contracts that include an equipment accrual create a timing difference between when cash is collected and when the performance obligation is satisfied, resulting in a contract liability (unearned revenue). The following contract assets and liabilities are included within Prepaid expenses and other current assets and Other current liabilities, or Other non-current liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021:~~2022:


(In millions)	(In millions)	June 30, 2022		December 31, 2021		(In millions)	March 31, 2023		December 31, 2022
Contract assets	Contract assets	$	0.5	$	1.2	Contract assets	$	0.4	$	0.5

Contract liabilities	Contract liabilities	$	19.7	$	20.2	Contract liabilities	$	18.2	$	18.2

The contract liability balances represent deferred revenue, primarily related to equipment accruals. Revenue recognized in the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022 that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period was ~~$3.8~~$4.6 million and ~~$8.2~~$4.4 million, ~~respectively, and $2.8 million and $8.6 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2021,~~ respectively. This revenue was driven primarily by equipment performance obligations being satisfied.

Remaining Performance Obligations

The following table summarizes the estimated transaction price from contracts with customers allocated to performance obligations or portions of performance obligations that have not yet been satisfied as of ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, as well as the expected timing of recognition of that transaction price.

(1) Our enforceable contractual obligations tend to be short term in nature. The table above does not include the transaction price of any remaining performance obligations that are part of the contracts with expected durations of one year or less.

Note 4 Leases

Lessor

SEE has contractual obligations as a lessor with respect to some of our automated and equipment solutions including "free on loan" equipment and leased equipment, both sales-type and operating. The consideration in a contract that contains both lease and non-lease components is allocated based on the standalone selling price.

Our contractual obligations for operating leases can include termination and renewal options. Our contractual obligations for sales-type leases tend to have fixed terms and can include purchase options. We utilize the reasonably certain threshold criteria in determining which options our customers will exercise.

All lease payments are primarily fixed in nature and therefore captured in the lease receivable. Our sales-type lease receivable balances at ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021~~2022 were as follows:


(In millions)	(In millions)	June 30, 2022		December 31, 2021		(In millions)	March 31, 2023		December 31, 2022
Short-Term (12 months or less)	Short-Term (12 months or less)	$	5.9	$	5.7	Short-Term (12 months or less)	$	6.4	$	6.5
Long-Term	Long-Term	16.1		18.8		Long-Term	18.6		18.6
Lease receivables	Lease receivables	$	22.0	$	24.5	Lease receivables	$	25.0	$	25.1

Sales-type and operating lease revenue was less than 1% of net trade sales for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and year ended December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

Lessee

SEE has contractual obligations as a lessee with respect to warehouses, offices and manufacturing facilities, IT equipment, automobiles, and material production equipment.

Note 5 Acquisitions

LB Holdco, Inc. Acquisition

On February 1, 2023, SEE acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of capital stock of LB Holdco, Inc., the parent company of Liquibox, Inc. (collectively, "Liquibox"), a pioneer, innovator and ~~Divestiture Activity~~manufacturer of Bag-in-Box sustainable fluids & liquids packaging and dispensing solutions for fresh food, beverage, consumer goods and industrial end-markets. The acquisition is included in our Food reporting segment. This acquisition accelerates our CRYOVAC® brand Fluids & Liquids business. CRYOVAC® technology, scale and market access provide a significant source of synergies. This acquisition contributes to and

fast tracks SEE’s transformation to become a world-class, digitally driven company automating sustainable packaging solutions.

Consideration paid was approximately $1.17 billion in cash, subject to customary adjustments. We financed the consideration paid and related fees and expenses through borrowings under our senior secured credit facility, proceeds from the issuance of senior notes, and cash on hand. See Note 13, "Debt and Credit Facilities," for additional details. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, acquisition related expenses recognized for the Liquibox acquisition were $11.9 million. These expenses are included within Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The following table summarizes the consideration transferred to acquire Liquibox and the preliminary allocation of the purchase price among the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The allocation of purchase price is still preliminary as the Company finalizes the final purchase price adjustment with the seller and finalizes other aspects of the valuation including deferred taxes and intangible valuations. Preliminary estimates will be finalized within one year of the date of acquisition.

Pro Forma Financial Information

The following table presents the Company’s unaudited pro forma financial information for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, assuming the acquisition of Liquibox had occurred on January 1, 2022. The information below reflects pro forma adjustments based on available information and certain assumptions that SEE believes are factual and supportable. The unaudited pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the results that might have occurred had the transaction actually taken place on January 1, 2022 and is not intended to be a projection of future results and gives no effect to any future synergistic benefits that may result from the combination or the costs of integrating the acquired operations with those of the Company.

The unaudited pro forma financial information includes, where applicable, adjustments for (i) additional expense from the fair value step-up of inventory, (ii) additional amortization expense related to acquired intangible assets, (iii) additional depreciation expense related to acquired property and equipment, (iv) transaction costs and other one-time non-recurring costs, (v) additional interest expense for borrowings related to the acquisition and amortization associated with fair value adjustments of debt assumed, and (vi) associated tax-related impacts of adjustments.

Acquisition of Foxpak Flexibles Ltd.

On February 2, 2022, SEE acquired Foxpak Flexibles Ltd. (“Foxpak”), a privately-owned Irish packaging solutions company. Foxpak is a digital printing pioneer that partners with brands to deliver highly decorated packaging solutions; stand-up and spout pouches, and sachets that serve a variety of markets including food retail, pet food, seafood, and snacks. This transaction resulted in a purchase price paid of $9.7 million, including the final purchase price adjustments that were recorded in the second ~~quarter~~and fourth quarters of 2022. The Company allocated the consideration transferred to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities

assumed, resulting in an allocation to goodwill of ~~$5.3~~$5.2 million and an allocation to identifiable intangible assets of $2.7 million. The acquisition is included in our Food reporting segment. Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. A deferred tax liability of $0.3 million on identifiable intangible assets was recorded on the opening balance sheet.

~~Divestiture of Reflectix, Inc.~~

On November 1, 2021, the Company completed the sale of Reflectix, Inc. (“Reflectix”), a wholly-owned subsidiary that sells branded reflective insulation solutions, with operations located in Markleville, Indiana. The ~~decision~~Foxpak acquisition was not material to ~~sell this business was consistent with the Company's overall strategic priorities focused on packaging solutions. Reflectix was previously included within the Protective reporting segment.~~

~~The disposal does not represent a strategic shift that will have a major effect on~~ our ~~operations and~~condensed consolidated financial ~~results and therefore did not qualify as a discontinued operation.~~

The selling price of the business was $82.5 million, paid in cash during the fourth quarter 2021. We recorded a $45.3 million pre-tax gain on the sale of the business, within Gain (Loss) on sale of businesses and property and equipment on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2021. The business had a net carrying value of $35.8 million, which included inventory of $6.8 million, trade receivables of $6.6 million, property and equipment of $1.0 million, and goodwill of $23.2 million. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. The assets were partially offset by accrued liabilities which were individually immaterial. We recorded $17.3 million in tax expense related to the gain from the sale of Reflectix within Income tax provision on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2021.

In the second quarter of 2022, we recorded a gain of $0.4 million related to the final net working capital settlement within Selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. We maintain no on-going investment or relationship that would result in the sold business becoming a related party.statements.

Note 6 Segments

The Company’s segment reporting structure consists of 2two reportable segments as follows and a Corporate category:

•Food

•Protective

The Company’s Food and Protective segments are considered reportable segments under FASB ASC Topic 280. Our reportable segments are aligned with similar groups of products. Corporate includes certain costs that are not allocated to the reportable segments. The Company evaluates performance of the reportable segments based on the results of each segment. The performance metric used by the Company's chief operating decision maker to evaluate performance of our reportable segments

is Segment Adjusted EBITDA. The Company allocates expense to each segment based on various factors including direct usage of resources, allocation of headcount, allocation of software licenses or, in cases where costs are not clearly delineated, costs may be allocated on portion of either net trade sales or an expense factor such as cost of sales.

We allocate and disclose depreciation and amortization expense to our segments, although depreciation and amortization are not included in the segment performance metric Segment Adjusted EBITDA. We also allocate and disclose restructuring charges by segment, although they are not included in the segment performance metric Segment Adjusted EBITDA since restructuring charges are categorized as Special Items (as identified below). The accounting policies of the reportable segments and Corporate are the same as those applied to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The following tables show Net sales and Segment Adjusted EBITDA by reportable segment:

Goodwill

We review goodwill for impairment on a reporting unit basis annually during the fourth quarter of each year and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. Since the date of our last annual goodwill impairment assessment, we have not identified any changes in circumstances that would indicate the carrying value of goodwill is not recoverable.

Note 10 Accounts Receivable Securitization Programs

U.S. Accounts Receivable Securitization Program

We and a group of our U.S. operating subsidiaries maintain an accounts receivable securitization program under which they sell eligible U.S. accounts receivable to a wholly-owned subsidiary that was formed for the sole purpose of entering into this program. The wholly-owned subsidiary in turn may sell an undivided fractional ownership interest in these receivables to 2two banks and issuers of commercial paper administered by these banks. The wholly-owned subsidiary retains the receivables it purchases from the operating subsidiaries. Any transfers of fractional ownership interests of receivables under the U.S. receivables securitization program to the 2two banks and issuers of commercial paper administered by these banks are considered secured borrowings with the underlying receivables as collateral and will be classified as Short-term borrowings on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. These banks do not have any recourse against the general credit of the Company. The net trade receivables that served as collateral for these borrowings are reclassified from Trade receivables, net to Prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. There were no$47.0 million of borrowings or corresponding net trade receivables maintained as collateral as of ~~June 30, 2022 or~~March 31, 2023. As of December 31, ~~2021.~~2022, there were no borrowings or corresponding net trade receivables maintained as collateral.

As of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, the maximum purchase limit for receivable interests was $50.0 million, subject to the availability limits described below.

The amounts available from time to time under this program may be less than $50.0 million due to a number of factors, including but not limited to our credit ratings, trade receivable balances, the creditworthiness of our customers and our receivables collection experience. As of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, the amount available to us under the program before utilization was $50.0 million. Although we do not believe restrictions under this program presently materially restrict our operations, if an additional event occurs that triggers one of these restrictive provisions, we could experience a decline in the amounts available to us under the program or termination of the program.

The program expires annually and is renewable.

European Accounts Receivable Securitization Program

We and a group of our European subsidiaries maintain an accounts receivable securitization program with a special purpose vehicle, or SPV, 2two banks, and issuers of commercial paper administered by these banks. The European program is structured to be a securitization of certain trade receivables that are originated by certain of our European subsidiaries. The SPV borrows funds from the banks to fund its acquisition of the receivables and provides the banks with a first priority perfected security interest in the accounts receivable. We do not have an equity interest in the SPV. We concluded the SPV is a variable interest entity because its total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the SPV to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from the bank via loans or via the collections from accounts receivable already purchased. Additionally, we are considered the primary beneficiary of the SPV since we control the activities of the SPV and are exposed to the risk of uncollectible receivables held by the SPV. Therefore, the SPV is consolidated in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Any activity between the participating subsidiaries and the SPV is eliminated in consolidation. Loans from the banks to the SPV will be classified as Short-term borrowings on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The net trade receivables that served as collateral for these borrowings are reclassified from Trade receivables, net to Prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. There were no€79.3 million ($86.5 million equivalent at March 31, 2023) of borrowings or corresponding net trade receivables maintained as collateral as of ~~June 30, 2022 or~~March 31, 2023. As of December 31, ~~2021.~~2022, there were no borrowings or corresponding net trade receivables maintained as collateral.

As of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, the maximum purchase limit for receivable interests was €80.0 million ($~~83.5~~87.2 million equivalent at ~~June 30, 2022)~~March 31, 2023), subject to availability limits. The terms and provisions of this program are similar to our U.S. program discussed above. As of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, the amount available under this program before utilization was €80.0 million ($~~83.5~~87.2 million equivalent as of ~~June 30, 2022)~~March 31, 2023).

This program expires annually and is renewable.

Utilization of Our Accounts Receivable Securitization Programs

As of ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023, there were $47.0 million and €79.3 million ($86.5 million equivalent at March 31, 2023) of outstanding borrowings under our U.S. or European programs, respectively. As of December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, there were no outstanding borrowings under our U.S. or European programs. We continue to service the trade receivables supporting the programs, and the banks are permitted to re-pledge this collateral. The total interest paid for these programs was ~~nominal~~$0.9 million for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and there was no interest paid for these programs in the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2021.~~March 31, 2022.

Under limited circumstances, the banks and the issuers of commercial paper can end purchases of receivables interests before the above expiration dates. A failure to comply with debt leverage or various other ratios related to our receivables collection experience could result in termination of the receivables programs. We were in compliance with these ratios at ~~June 30, 2022.~~March 31, 2023.

Note 11 Accounts Receivable Factoring Agreements

The Company has entered into factoring agreements and customers' supply chain financing arrangements to sell certain trade receivables to unrelated third-party financial institutions. These programs are entered into in the normal course of business. We account for these transactions in accordance with ASC 860, "Transfers and Servicing" ("ASC 860"). ASC 860 allows for the ownership transfer of accounts receivable to qualify for true-sale treatment when the appropriate criteria is met, which permits the Company to present the balances sold under the program to be excluded from Trade receivables, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Receivables are considered sold when (i) they are transferred beyond the reach of the Company and its creditors, (ii) the purchaser has the right to pledge or exchange the receivables, and (iii) the Company has no continuing involvement in the transferred receivables. In addition, the Company provides no other forms of continued financial support to the purchaser of the receivables once the receivables are sold.

Gross amounts factored under this program for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022 ~~and 2021~~ were ~~$353.3~~$194.5 million and ~~$305.1~~$172.1 million, respectively. The fees associated with transfer of receivables for all programs were approximately ~~$1.6~~$3.0 million and

~~$2.9~~ $1.3 million for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, ~~respectively, and $0.8 million and $1.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021,~~ respectively.

Note 12 Restructuring Activities

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred $3.5 million and $4.0 million of restructuring charges, respectively, and $3.8 million and $6.9 million of other costs associated with our restructuring program, respectively. These charges were incurred in connection with the Company’s Reinvent SEE business transformation.

In December 2018, the Board of Directors approved our Reinvent SEE business transformation, ~~which included~~including the related~~three-year~~ restructuring program (“Program”)~~. Spend associated with our previously existing restructuring programs at the time of Reinvent SEE’s approval was substantially completed~~, which concluded as of ~~December 31, 2020, and is no longer included in the restructuring program totals below.~~

~~The Board of Directors originally approved cumulative restructuring spend up to $220 million. The Board of Directors extended these activities and related charges to~~ the end of calendar year 2022.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded $1.2 million and $0.2 million of income within restructuring charges and other associated costs, respectively. This ~~extension does not expand~~income primarily relates to reversals of previously accrued expenses associated with the ~~original total Program spend and is primarily related to on-going initiatives, including those related to SEE's continued digital transformation.~~

~~Restructuring spend is estimated to be incurred as follows:~~

(In millions) Total Restructuring Program Range Less Program Spend to Date Remaining Restructuring Spend
Low High Low High
Costs of reduction in headcount as a result of reorganization $ 79 $ 80 $ (79) $ — $ 1
Other expenses associated with the Program 110 120 (108) 2 12

~~of $0.5 million is expected to primarily be paid in~~March 31, 2023. ~~These amounts are included in Other non-current liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2022.~~

One of the components of the Reinvent SEE business transformation was to enhance the operational efficiency of the Company by acting as “One ~~SEE”.~~SEE.” The ~~program~~Program was approved by our Board of Directors as a consolidated program benefiting both Food and ~~Protective, and accordingly the expected program spend by reporting segment is not available.

Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facility

2023 Activity

On February 1, 2023, the Company used proceeds from the new incremental term facility, as described below, to finance the Liquibox acquisition. We incurred $11.0 million of lender and third party fees included in carrying amounts of outstanding debt. See Note 5, "Acquisitions," for further details related to the Liquibox acquisition.

2022 Activity

On December 8, 2022, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an amendment to the fourth amended and restated syndicated facility agreement and incremental assumption agreement ("the Amendment”) further amending its existing senior secured credit facility (the “Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”), as described below. The Amendment provides for a new incremental term facility in an aggregate principal amount of $650.0 million, to be used, in part, to finance the Company’s acquisition of Liquibox. See Note 5, "Acquisitions," for further details related to the Liquibox acquisition.

On March 25, 2022, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into ~~a fourth amended and restated syndicated facility agreement whereby its existing senior secured credit facility was amended and restated (the “Fourth~~the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit ~~Agreement”)~~Agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as agent, and the other financial institutions party thereto. The changes include (i) the refinancing of the term loan A facilities and revolving credit facilities with a new U.S. dollar term loan A facility in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $475.0 million, a new pounds sterling term loan A facility in an aggregate principal amount of approximately £27.2 million, and revolving credit facilities of $1.0 billion (including revolving facilities available in U.S. dollars, euros, pounds sterling, Canadian dollars, Australian dollars, Japanese yen, New Zealand dollars and Mexican pesos), (ii) the conversion of the facilities rate from a London Interbank Offered Rate ~~("LIBOR")~~-based rate to a Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR")-based rate, (iii) improved pricing terms which will range from 100 to 175 basis points (bps) in the case of SOFR loans, subject to the achievement of certain leverage tests, (iv) the extension of the final maturity of the term loan A facilities and revolving credit commitment to March 25, 2027, (v) the release of all non-U.S. collateral previously pledged by the Company's subsidiaries and the release of all existing guarantees for non-U.S., non-borrower Company subsidiaries, (vi) the adjustment of certain covenants to provide flexibility to incur additional indebtedness and take other actions and (vii) other amendments.

As a result of the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, we recognized a $0.7 million loss on debt redemption and refinancing activities in Other ~~(expense) income,~~expense, net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations during the first quarter of 2022. This amount includes $0.4 million of accelerated amortization of original issuance discount related to the term loan A and lender and non-lender fees related to the entire credit facility. Also included in the loss on debt redemption and refinancing activities was $0.3 million of non-lender fees incurred in connection with the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. In addition, we incurred $1.2 million of lender and third-party fees that are included in the carrying amounts of the outstanding debt under the credit facility. We also capitalized $3.0 million of fees that are included in Other assets on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The amortization expense related to original issuance discount and lender and non-lender fees is calculated using the effective interest rate method over the lives of the respective debt instruments.

Total amortization expense related to the senior secured credit facility was ~~$0.3~~$0.7 million and ~~$0.7~~$0.4 million for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and is included in Interest expense, net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Senior Notes

Interest is payable on February 1 and August 1 of each year, commencing on August 1, 2023. The 2028 Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of the Company’s existing and future wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries that guarantee its senior secured credit facilities, subject to release under certain circumstances. We capitalized $11.8 million of fees incurred in connection with the 2028 Notes, which are included in Long-term debt, less current portion on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We may redeem the 2028 Notes, in whole or in part, at any time prior to February 1, 2025, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2028 Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date, plus a "make-whole premium". On or after February 1, 2025, we may redeem the 2028 Notes, in whole or in part, at specified redemption prices, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including the redemption date. In addition, at any time prior to February 1, 2025, we may redeem up to 40% of the 2028 Notes using the proceeds of certain equity offerings.

The net proceeds from the 2028 Notes offering were used (i) together with a borrowing under the Company’s incremental term loan facility and cash on hand, to finance the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Liquibox, including related fees and expenses, (ii) to repurchase all of the Company’s outstanding 4.500% senior notes due 2023 (the “2023 Euro Notes”) pursuant to the tender offer commenced by the Company on January 27, 2023 and satisfy and discharge all of the Company’s outstanding 2023 Euro Notes in accordance with the terms of the indenture governing the 2023 Euro Notes and to pay related premiums, fees and expenses in connection therewith and (iii) to the extent of any remaining proceeds after giving effect to the foregoing transactions, for general corporate purposes.

Note 14 Derivatives and Hedging Activities

We report all derivative instruments on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value and establish criteria for designation and effectiveness of transactions entered into for hedging purposes.

As a global organization, we face exposure to market risks, such as fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. To manage the volatility relating to these exposures, we enter into various derivative instruments from time to time under our risk management policies. We designate derivative instruments as hedges on a transaction basis to support hedge accounting. The changes in fair value of these hedging instruments offset in part or in whole corresponding changes in the fair value or cash flows of the underlying exposures being hedged. We assess the initial and ongoing effectiveness of our hedging relationships in accordance with our policy. We do not purchase, hold or sell derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. Our practice is to terminate derivative transactions if the underlying asset or liability matures or is sold or terminated, or if we determine the underlying forecasted transaction is no longer probable of occurring.

We record the fair value positions of all derivative financial instruments on a net basis by counterparty for which a master netting arrangement is utilized.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts Designated as Cash Flow Hedges

The primary purpose of our cash flow hedging activities is to manage the potential changes in value associated with the amounts receivable or payable on equipment and raw material purchases that are denominated in foreign currencies in order to minimize the impact of the changes in foreign currencies. We record gains and losses on foreign currency forward contracts qualifying as cash flow hedges in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss (“AOCL”) to the extent that these hedges are effective and until we recognize the underlying transactions in net earnings, at which time we recognize these gains and losses in Cost of sales, on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Cash flows from derivative financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges are classified as ~~cash~~Cash flows from operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. These contracts generally have original maturities of less than 12 months.

Net unrealized after-tax gains/losses related to cash flow hedging activities that were included in AOCL were a ~~$3.3~~$1.1 million gain and a ~~$1.8~~$1.5 million ~~gain~~loss for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, ~~respectively, and a $1.2 million gain and a $3.4 million gain for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021,~~ respectively. The unrealized amount in AOCL will fluctuate based on changes in the fair value of open contracts during each reporting period.

We estimate that ~~$3.4~~$0.3 million of net unrealized ~~gains~~losses related to cash flow hedging activities included in AOCL will be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts Not Designated as Hedges

Our subsidiaries have foreign currency exchange exposure from buying and selling in currencies other than their functional currencies. The primary purposes of our foreign currency hedging activities are to manage the potential changes in value associated with the amounts receivable or payable on transactions denominated in foreign currencies and to minimize the impact of the changes in foreign currencies related to foreign currency-denominated interest-bearing intercompany loans and receivables and payables. The changes in fair value of these derivative contracts are recognized in Other ~~(expense) income,~~expense, net, on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and are largely offset by the remeasurement of the underlying foreign currency-denominated items indicated above. Cash flows from derivative financial instruments not designated as hedges are classified as Cash flows from investing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. These contracts generally have original maturities of less than 12 months.

Interest Rate Swaps

From time to time, we may use interest rate swaps to manage our fixed and floating interest rates on our outstanding indebtedness. At ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, we had no outstanding interest rate swaps.

Net Investment Hedge

~~The~~In February 2023, the €400.0 million 4.500% senior notes issued in June 2015 ~~are~~that were previously designated as a net investment hedge, hedging a portion of our net investment in a certain European subsidiary against fluctuations in foreign exchange ~~rates. The decrease in~~rates, was repaid, which settled the ~~translated value~~net investment hedge. See Note 13, "Debt and Credit Facilities," for additional information about the repayment of the notes.

2526

In the first quarter of 2023, we entered into a series of cross-currency swaps with a combined notional amount of $432.8 million. Each of these cross-currency swaps were designated as net investment hedges of the ~~debt was $32.2 million ($24.2 million,~~Company's foreign currency exposure of its net investment in certain Euro-functional currency subsidiaries with Euro-denominated net assets, and the Company pays a fixed rate of ~~deferred tax)~~Euro-based interest and receives a fixed rate of U.S. dollar interest. The Company has elected the spot method for assessing the effectiveness of these contracts. The maturity date for this series of cross-currency swaps is February 1, 2028. The fair value of this hedge as of ~~June 30, 2022, which~~March 31, 2023 was a $0.9 million loss and is ~~reflected in AOCL~~included within Other non-current liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Interest amounts related to the cross-currency swap as of March 31, 2023 resulted in $0.5 million of interest income and is reflected in Interest expense, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedges of net investments in foreign operations, changes in fair values of the derivative instruments are recognized in unrealized net gain or loss on derivative instruments for net investment hedge, a component of AOCL, net of taxes, to offset the changes in the values of the net investments being hedged. Any portion of the net investment hedge that is determined to be ineffective is recorded in Other ~~(expense) income,~~expense, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Other Derivative Instruments

We may use other derivative instruments from time to time to manage exposure to foreign exchange rates and to access international financing transactions. These instruments can potentially limit foreign exchange exposure by swapping borrowings denominated in one currency for borrowings denominated in another currency.

Fair Value of Derivative Instruments

See Note 15, “Fair Value Measurements, Equity Investments and Other Financial Instruments,” for a discussion of the inputs and valuation techniques used to determine the fair value of our outstanding derivative instruments.

The following table details the fair value of our derivative instruments included on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 15 Fair Value Measurements, Equity Investments and Other Financial Instruments

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. There are three levels to the fair value hierarchy as follows:

Level 1 - observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets

Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 - unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which may require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The fair value, measured on a recurring basis, of our financial instruments, using the fair value hierarchy under U.S. GAAP, are included in the table below.

Cash equivalents - Our cash equivalents consisted of bank time deposits. Since these are short-term highly liquid investments with remaining maturities of 3 months or less, they present negligible risk of changes in fair value due to changes in interest rates and are classified as Level 1 financial instruments.

Derivative financial instruments - Our foreign currency forward contracts, foreign currency options, interest rate swaps and cross-currency swaps are recorded at fair value on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets using a discounted cash flow

analysis that incorporates observable market inputs. These market inputs include foreign currency spot and forward rates, and various interest rate curves, and are obtained from pricing data quoted by various banks, third-party sources and foreign currency dealers involving identical or comparable instruments. Such financial instruments are classified as Level 2.

Counterparties to these foreign currency forward contracts have at least an investment grade rating. Credit ratings on some of our counterparties may change during the term of our financial instruments. We closely monitor our counterparties’ credit ratings and, if necessary, will make any appropriate changes to our financial instruments. The fair value generally reflects the estimated amounts that we would receive or pay to terminate the contracts at the reporting date.

Foreign currency forward contracts ~~and options~~ are included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets and Other current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

Equity Investments

SEE maintains equity investments in companies which are accounted for under the measurement alternative described in ASC 321-10-35-2 ("ASC 321") for equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values. We do not exercise significant influence over these companies. The following carrying value of these investments were included within Other non-current assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021:~~2022:

We hold an equity investment in an investee that was valued at $31.6 million as of December 31, 2021. The investment is accounted for under the measurement alternative in accordance with ASC 321. It is made up of cash investments of $7.5 million and $9.0 million made in 2018 and 2021, respectively, and an upward fair value adjustment of $15.1 million, which was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2020 based on the valuation of additional equity issued by the investee that was deemed to be an observable transaction of a similar investment under ASC 321. During the first quarter of 2022, we recorded a $15.5 million impairment on the equity investment arising from the announced termination of a planned merger between the investee and a special purpose acquisition company due to unfavorable capital market conditions. This impairment loss was recorded within Other ~~(expense) income,~~expense, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. In connection with our second quarter review of the investee's financial performance, we obtained the investee's latest financial forecast, which showed deterioration across several key operating and liquidity metrics. This was deemed to be a triggering event for potential impairment. Accordingly, we performed a quantitative impairment test as of June 30, 2022 to determine the fair value of the equity investment. Based on discounted cash flow and market participant data as of June 30, 2022, and our projections related to the investee's ability to remain a going concern, we concluded that the fair value of the investment was zero. SEE recorded an impairment loss of $16.1 million equal to the difference between the fair value of the investment as of June 30, 2022 and its carrying value at March 31, 2022. The $16.1 million impairment loss was recorded within Other ~~(expense) income,~~expense, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations during the second quarter of 2022.

During the third quarter of 2021, SEE recorded an upward adjustment of $6.6 million based on the valuation of additional equity issued by an investee which was deemed to be an observable transaction of a similar investment under ASC 321. The gain was recorded within Other (expense) income, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

During the fourth quarter of 2020, SEE made an additional investment in 1 of our investees of $5.7 million, based on the balance sheet foreign exchange rate as of December 31, 2020. The equity issuance by the investee was subject to customary regulatory and statutory approval which was received during the first quarter of 2021. Upon approval, this investment converted to equity and is held as an equity investment valued under the measurement alternative in ASC 321.

As of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, cumulative upward adjustments to our equity investments were $21.7 million and cumulative impairments or downward adjustments were $31.6 million, resulting in net cumulative impairments or downward adjustments of $9.9 million. As of December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, cumulative upward adjustments to our equity investments were $21.7 million and there were no$31.6 million cumulative impairments or downward adjustments.

Other Financial Instruments

The following financial instruments are recorded at fair value or at amounts that approximate fair value: (1) trade receivables, net, (2) certain other current assets, (3) accounts payable and (4) other current liabilities. The carrying amounts reported on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the above financial instruments closely approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities.

Other liabilities that are recorded at carrying value on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets include our credit facilities and senior notes. We utilize a market approach to calculate the fair value of our senior notes. Due to their limited investor base and the face value of some of our senior notes, they may not be actively traded on the date we calculate their fair value. Therefore, we may utilize prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving similar securities, reflecting U.S. Treasury yields to calculate the yield to maturity and the price on some of our senior notes. These inputs are provided by an independent third party and are considered to be Level 2 inputs.

We derive our fair value estimates of our various other debt instruments by evaluating the nature and terms of each instrument, considering prevailing economic and market conditions, and examining the cost of similar debt offered at the balance sheet date. We also incorporated our credit default swap rates and currency specific swap rates in the valuation of each debt instrument, as applicable.

These estimates are subjective and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, and therefore we cannot determine them with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect our estimates.

The table below shows the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of our debt, excluding our lease liabilities.

Note 17 Income Taxes

U.S. Legislation

The ~~American Rescue Plan~~Inflation Reduction Act ~~of 2021 (“Rescue Act”~~("IRA") was signed into law on ~~March 11, 2021~~August 16, 2022. The IRA includes climate and ~~includes additional COVID-19 related~~energy provisions and introduces a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax, ~~relief for certain individuals and businesses.~~

among other items. The enactment of the ~~Rescue Act~~IRA did not result in any ~~material~~ adjustments to our income tax provision for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2022 or June 30, 2021.~~

March 31, 2023. We continue to evaluate the impact of this law on our operations and currently do not believe the legislation will have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Effective Income Tax Rate and Income Tax Provision

For interim tax reporting, we estimate one annual effective tax rate for tax jurisdictions not subject to a valuation allowance and apply that rate to the year-to-date ordinary income/(loss). Tax effects of significant unusual or infrequently occurring items are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate calculation and recognized in the interim period in which they occur.

State income taxes, foreign earnings subject to higher tax rates and non-deductible expenses increase the Company's effective income tax rate compared to the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0%. Research and development credits decrease the Company's effective tax rate compared to the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0%.

Our effective income tax rate was ~~27.2% and 27.9%~~35.0% for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2022, respectively.~~March 31, 2023. In addition to the above referenced items, the ~~three month~~three-month period was unfavorably impacted by accruals for unresolved ~~controversy. The six month period was favorably impacted by share priceaccretion in equity compensation, and unfavorably impactedby accruals for unresolved~~ controversy ~~and nonrecurring intercompany dividend distributions.~~which had a disproportionate impact on the rate due to lower earnings before income tax provision.

Our effective income tax rate was ~~29.7% and 31.9%~~28.4% for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2021, respectively.~~March 31, 2022. In addition to the above referenced items, the Company's effective income tax rate for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022 was favorably impacted by share price

accretion in equity compensation and unfavorably impacted by ~~legislative and administrative changes to foreign enacted statutes and~~ accruals for unresolved ~~controversy.~~controversy and nonrecurring intercompany dividend distributions.

There was no significant change in our valuation allowances for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and ~~2021.~~2022.

Net increases in unrecognized tax positions of ~~$2.6~~$6.8 million and ~~$8.9~~$6.3 million for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, ~~respectively, and $2.9 million and $7.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021,~~ respectively, were primarily related to interest accruals on existing uncertain tax positions. We are not currently able to reasonably estimate the amount by which the liability for unrecognized tax positions may increase or decrease as a result of future tax controversy developments or resolution. Interest and penalties on tax assessments are included in Income tax provision on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The IRS completed its field examination of the U.S. federal income tax returns for the 2011-2014 tax years in the third quarter of 2020. As previously disclosed, the IRS has proposed to disallow, for the 2014 taxable year, the entirety of the deduction of the approximately $1.49 billion settlement payment made pursuant to the Settlement agreement (as defined in Note 18, “Commitments and Contingencies”) and the resulting reduction of our U.S. federal tax liability by approximately $525 million. ~~We continue to believe that we have meritorious defenses to the proposed disallowance and have filed a protest with the IRS.~~ The proposed disallowance is being reviewed by the IRS Independent Office of Appeals (“Appeals”). Although we believe we have meritorious defenses to the proposed disallowance, we have reached a tentative agreement to settle this matter with the IRS, which is subject to further review, approval and execution of a definitive agreement by both parties. There can be no assurance that a definitive agreement will be executed and we cannot predict the outcome of ~~such review~~this matter or when it will be concluded. ~~It is possible that future~~We have revised our uncertain tax position to reflect the tentative agreement. On April 20, 2023, we deposited $175 million with the IRS based on an estimate of the federal tax owed per the tentative agreement. Our final settlement amount could differ from the $175 million deposited. Future developments in this matter could have a material impact on the Company's uncertain tax position balances and results of operations, including cash flows, within the next twelve months.

There is no outstanding liability with respect to the one-time mandatory tax on previously deferred foreign earnings of foreign subsidiaries provision ~~(“Transition Tax”)~~ associated with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.

Note 18 Commitments and Contingencies

Settlement Agreement Tax Deduction

On March 31, 1998, the Company completed a multi-step transaction (the “Cryovac transaction”) involving W.R. Grace & Co. (“Grace”) which brought the Cryovac packaging business and the former Sealed Air’s business under the common ownership of the Company. As part of that transaction, Grace and its subsidiaries retained all liabilities arising out of their operations before the Cryovac transaction (including asbestos-related liabilities), other than liabilities relating to Cryovac’s operations, and agreed to indemnify the Company with respect to such retained liabilities. Beginning in 2000, we were served with a number of lawsuits alleging that the Cryovac transaction was a fraudulent transfer or gave rise to successor liability or both, and that, as a result, we were responsible for alleged asbestos liabilities of Grace and its subsidiaries. On April 2, 2001, Grace and a number of its subsidiaries filed petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”). In connection with Grace’s Chapter 11 case, the Bankruptcy Court granted the official committees appointed to represent asbestos claimants in Grace’s Chapter 11 case (the “Committees”) permission to pursue against the Company and its subsidiary Cryovac, Inc. fraudulent transfer, successor liability, and other claims based upon the Cryovac transaction. In November 2002, we reached an agreement in principle with the Committees to resolve all current and future asbestos-related claims made against us and our affiliates, as well as indemnification claims by Fresenius Medical Care Holdings, Inc. and affiliated companies, in each case, in connection with the Cryovac transaction. A

definitive settlement agreement was entered into in 2003 and approved by the Bankruptcy Court in 2005 (such agreement, the "Settlement agreement"). The Settlement agreement was subsequently incorporated into the plan of reorganization for Grace (the "Plan") and the Plan was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court in 2011 and the U.S. District Court in 2012.

On February 3, 2014 (the “Effective Date”), the Plan implementing the Settlement agreement became effective with Grace emerging from bankruptcy and the injunctions and releases provided by the Plan becoming effective. On the Effective Date, the Company’s subsidiary, Cryovac, Inc., made the payments contemplated by the Settlement agreement, consisting of aggregate cash payments in the amount of $929.7 million to the WRG Asbestos PI Trust (the “PI Trust”) and the WRG Asbestos PD Trust (the “PD Trust”) and the transfer of 18 million shares of Sealed Air common stock (the “Settlement Shares”) to the PI Trust, in each case, reflecting adjustments made in accordance with the Settlement agreement.

reduction of our U.S. federal tax liability by approximately $525 million. ~~We continue to believe that we have meritorious defenses to the proposed disallowance and have filed a protest with the IRS.~~ The proposed disallowance is being reviewed by the IRS Independent Office of Appeals (“Appeals”). Although we believe we have meritorious defenses to the proposed disallowance, we have reached a tentative agreement to settle this matter with the IRS, which is subject to further review, approval and execution of a definitive agreement by both parties.

Future developments in this matter could have a material impact on the Company's uncertain tax position balances and results of operations, including cash flows, within the next twelve months.

Securities Class Action

On November 1, 2019, purported Company stockholder UA Local 13 & Employers Group Insurance Fund filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company and certain of its current and former officers. On June 4, 2020, the complaint was amended to remove all individual defendants other than the Company’s former CFO and to add a plaintiff, and on July 13, 2020, the complaint was further amended to identify a total of four plaintiffs. The complaint alleged violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder based on allegedly false and misleading statements and omissions concerning the Company’s hiring of Ernst & Young LLP as its independent auditors and concerning the Company's corporate policies and procedures. The plaintiffs sought to represent a class of purchasers of the Company’s common stock between November 17, 2014 and June 20, 2019. The complaint sought, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages, including interest, and attorneys’ fees and costs. On September 4, 2020, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the complaint, and on June 1, 2021, the court issued a ruling that granted in part and denied in part the motion to dismiss. The Company filed its answer to the complaint on July 15, 2021. On September 9, 2022, the parties signed a settlement agreement including a proposed settlement amount of $12.5 million, and on September 14, 2022, the Court issued an order preliminarily approving such settlement. The settlement was funded by the Company’s insurance carriers. In the third quarter of 2022, the Company recorded a liability of $12.5 million in Other current liabilities and a corresponding $12.5 million insurance receivable in Other receivables on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. On October 14, 2022, the Company’s insurance carriers funded the $12.5 million settlement via an escrow account established on behalf of the settlement class. On January 20, 2023, the Court certified a settlement class and issued an order granting final approval of the settlement. Accordingly, the Company reversed the $12.5 million in Other current liabilities and the corresponding insurance receivable in Other receivables on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets that was recorded in the third quarter of 2022.

Environmental Matters

We are subject to loss contingencies resulting from environmental laws and regulations, and we accrue for anticipated costs associated with investigatory and remediation efforts when an assessment has indicated that a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. These accruals are not reduced by potential insurance recoveries, if any. We do not believe that it is reasonably possible that our liability in excess of the amounts that we have accrued for environmental matters will be material to our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets or Statements of Operations. Environmental liabilities are reassessed whenever circumstances become better defined or remediation efforts and their costs can be better estimated.

We evaluate these liabilities periodically based on available information, including the progress of remedial investigations at each site, the current status of discussions with regulatory authorities regarding the methods and extent of remediation and the apportionment of costs among potentially responsible parties. As some of these issues are decided (the outcomes of which are subject to uncertainties) or new sites are assessed and costs can be reasonably estimated, we adjust the recorded accruals, as necessary. We believe that these exposures are not material to our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets or Statements of Operations. We believe that we have adequately reserved for all probable and estimable environmental exposures.

Guarantees and Indemnification Obligations

We are a party to many contracts containing guarantees and indemnification obligations. These contracts primarily consist of:

•indemnities in connection with the sale of businesses, primarily related to the sale of Diversey in 2017. Our indemnity obligations under the relevant agreements may be limited in terms of time, amount or scope. As it relates to certain income tax related liabilities, the relevant agreements may not provide any cap for such liabilities, and the period in which we would be liable would lapse upon expiration of the statute of limitation for assessment of the underlying taxes. Because of the conditional nature of these obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement, we are unable to reasonably estimate the potential maximum exposure associated with these items;

•product warranties with respect to certain products sold to customers in the ordinary course of business. These warranties typically provide that products will conform to specifications. We generally do not establish a liability for product warranty based on a percentage of sales or other formula. We accrue a warranty liability on a transaction-specific basis depending on the individual facts and circumstances related to each sale. Both the liability and annual expense related to product warranties are immaterial to our consolidated financial position and results of operations; and

•licenses of intellectual property by us to third parties in which we have agreed to indemnify the licensee against third-party infringement claims.

As of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, the Company has no reason to believe a loss exceeding amounts already recognized would be incurred.

Other Matters

We are also involved in various other legal actions incidental to our business. We believe, after consulting with counsel, that the disposition of these other legal proceedings and matters will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations including potential impact to cash flows.

Note 19 Stockholders’ Equity

Repurchase of Common Stock

On August 2, 2021, the Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program of $1.0 billion. This current program has no expiration date and replaced all previous authorizations. As of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, there was ~~$646.3~~$536.5 million remaining under the current authorized program. Share repurchases made prior to August 2, 2021 were under previous Board of Directors share repurchase authorizations, specifically the $1.5 billion authorization made in July 2015, the $1.5 billion authorization made in March 2017, and the $1.0 billion authorization made in May 2018.

During the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we repurchased ~~871,001 and 3,913,697~~1,529,575 shares, for approximately ~~$50.1~~$79.8 million, ~~and $250.1 million, with~~at an average share price of ~~$57.50 and $63.90, respectively.~~$52.20.

During the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, we repurchased ~~2,133,020 and 6,058,054~~3,042,696 shares, for approximately ~~$122.4~~$200.0 million, ~~and $297.8 million, with~~at an average share price of $57.36 and $49.16, respectively. Cash outlay for share repurchases during the six months ended June 30, 2021 also includes $1.6 million for 35,100 shares purchased in the fourth quarter 2020 and settled in the first quarter 2021.$65.74.

These repurchases were made under open market transactions, including through plans complying with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and pursuant to the share repurchase program previously authorized by our Board of Directors.

Dividends

On February ~~25, 2022,~~22, 2023, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per common share, or ~~$29.4~~$28.9 million, which was paid on March ~~25, 2022,~~24, 2023, to stockholders of record at the close of business on March ~~11, 2022.~~

On May 26, 2022, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per common share, or $29.2 million, which was paid on June 24, 2022, to stockholders of record at the close of business on June 10, ~~2022.~~2023.

The dividends paid during the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 were recorded as a reduction to ~~cash~~Cash and cash equivalents and ~~retained~~Retained earnings on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our senior secured credit facility and our senior notes contain covenants that restrict our ability to declare or pay dividends. However, we do not believe these covenants are likely to materially limit the future payment of quarterly cash dividends on our common stock. From time to time, we may consider other means of returning value to our stockholders based on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. There is no guarantee that our Board of Directors will declare any future dividends.

Share-based Compensation

In 2014, the Board of Directors adopted, and our stockholders approved, the 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“Omnibus Incentive Plan”). Under the Omnibus Incentive Plan, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock authorized was 4,250,000, plus total shares available to be issued as of May 22, 2014 under the 2002 Directors Stock Plan and the 2005 Contingent Stock Plan (collectively, the “Predecessor Plans”). The Omnibus Incentive Plan replaced the Predecessor Plans and no further awards were granted under the Predecessor Plans. The Omnibus Incentive Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, unrestricted stock, performance share units known as PSU awards, other stock awards and cash awards to officers, non-employee directors, key employees, consultants and advisors.

In 2018, the Board of Directors adopted, and our shareholders approved, an amendment and restatement to the Omnibus Incentive Plan. The amendment added 2,199,114 shares of common stock to the share pool previously available under the Omnibus Incentive Plan.

Additionally, in 2021, the Board of Directors adopted, and ~~at the 2021 Annual Stockholders' Meeting~~ our shareholders approved, an additional amendment and restatement to the Omnibus Incentive Plan. The amended plan added 2,999,054 shares of common stock to the share pool previously available under the Omnibus Incentive Plan.

We record share-based incentive compensation expense in ~~selling,~~Selling, general and administrative expenses and ~~cost~~Cost of sales on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for both equity-classified and liability-classified awards. We record a corresponding credit to ~~additional~~Additional paid-in capital within stockholders’ equity for equity-classified awards, and to either ~~other~~Other current liabilities or ~~other~~Other non-current liabilities for liability-classified awards based on the fair value of the share-based incentive compensation awards at the date of grant. Total expense for the liability-classified awards continues to be remeasured to fair value at the end of each reporting period. We recognize an expense or credit reflecting the straight-line recognition, net of estimated forfeitures, of the expected cost of the program. The number of PSUs earned may equal, exceed, or be less than the targeted number of shares depending on whether the performance criteria are met, surpassed, or not met.

The table below shows our total share-based incentive compensation expense:


		Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,					Three Months Ended March 31,
(In millions)	(In millions)	2022		2021		2022		2021		(In millions)		2023		2022

(1)The amounts presented above do not include the expense related to our U.S. profit sharing contributions made in the form of our common ~~stock, however,~~stock. However, the amounts include the expense related to ~~share based~~share-based awards that are settled in cash.

Performance Share Units (“PSU”) Awards

During the first 90 days of each year, the Organization and Compensation (“O&C”) Committee of our Board of Directors approves PSU awards for our executive officers and other selected employees, which include for each participant a target number of shares of common stock and the performance goals and measures that will determine the percentage of the target award that is earned following the end of the ~~three-year~~three-year performance period. Following the end of the performance period, in addition to shares earned, participants will also receive a cash payment in the amount of the dividends (without interest) that would have been paid during the performance period on the number of shares that they have earned. Each PSU is subject to forfeiture if the recipient terminates employment with the Company prior to the end of the ~~three-year~~three-year award performance period for any reason other than death, disability or retirement. In the event of death, disability or retirement, a participant will receive a prorated payment based on such participant’s number of days of service during the award performance period, further adjusted based on the achievement of the performance goals during the award performance period. PSUs are classified as equity in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, with the exception of awards that are required by local laws or regulations to be settled in cash. These are classified as either Other current liabilities or Other non-current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

~~2022~~ ~~Three-year~~2023 Three-year PSU Awards

During the first quarter ~~2022,~~of 2023, the O&C Committee approved awards with a ~~three-year~~three-year performance period beginning January 1, ~~2022~~2023 and ending December 31, ~~2024~~2025 for executive officers and other selected employees. The O&C Committee established performance goals, which are (i) three-year cumulative average growth rate (“CAGR”) of consolidated Adjusted EBITDA weighted at 50%, and (ii) Return on Invested Capital (“ROIC”) weighted at 50%. Calculation of final achievement on each performance metric is subject to an upward or downward adjustment of up to 25% of the overall combined achievement percentage, based on the results of a relative total shareholder return (“TSR”) modifier. The comparator group for the relative TSR modifier is S&P 500 component companies as of the beginning of the performance period. Shareholder return in the top quartile of the comparator group increases overall achievement of performance metrics by 25%, while shareholder return in the bottom quartile of the comparator group decreases overall achievement of the performance metrics by 25%. The total number of shares to be issued, including the modifier, for these awards can range from zero to 250% of the target number of shares.

The target number of PSUs granted and the grant date fair value of the PSUs are shown in the following table:
Adjusted EBITDA CAGR ROIC
February 24, 2022 grant date
Number of units granted 72,308 72,308

2023 Five-year ESG Awards

~~2019~~

~~Three~~During the first quarter of 2023, the O&C Committee approved awards with a five-year performance period beginning January 1, 2023 and ending December 31, 2027 for certain of our executive officers. The O&C Committee established performance goals, which are aligned with the Company's environmental, social, and governance ("ESG") commitments. A total of 75% of the target awards are weighted towards sustainability goals, including increased recycled and/or renewable content offerings and reductions in greenhouse gas intensity. The remaining 25% of the target awards are weighted towards social goals, including global gender representation, and belonging and inclusion. Calculation of final achievement on the awards is subject to upward adjustments in the event that (i) specified levels of SEE Automation and prismiq~~-year~~TM sales are realized and/or (ii) the target performance level for all goals is met. The total number of shares to be issued for these awards can range from zero to 187.5% of the target number of shares, inclusive of upward adjustments. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we recognized stock based compensation expense associated with the ESG awards of $1.1 million. This expense is included within Cost of Sales and Selling, general and administrative expenses on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The target number of PSUs granted and the grant date fair value of the PSUs are shown in the following table:


	Environmental Goals		Social Goals

2020 Three-year PSU Awards

In February ~~2022,~~2023, the O&C Committee reviewed the performance results for the ~~2019-2021~~2020-2022 PSUs. Performance goals for these PSUs were based on Adjusted EBITDA ~~margin,~~CAGR, ROIC, and the Company's TSR ranking relative to a group of peer companies.

Based on overall performance for ~~2019-2021~~2020-2022 PSUs, these awards paid out at ~~132.5%~~172.4% of target or ~~274,296~~457,461 units. Of this, ~~110,529~~183,654 units were withheld to cover employee tax withholding and ~~2,478~~914 units were designated as cash-settled awards, resulting in net share issuances of ~~161,289.~~272,893.

Impact of COVID-19

Our diverse end-markets and geographies continue to experience varying degrees of impact from COVID-19. The food service market, including restaurants, entertainment venues and hotels, experienced higher activity in the first six months of 2022 as compared to the prior year when it was more adversely impacted by government mandated shut-downs and social distancing measures. This has resulted in year-over-year volume growth for many of our products that support this market. However, the environment remains volatile, and we cannot predict the future impact on the market segments we serve.

We cannot predict the impact on the markets we serve due to the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, ~~or future restrictions on commercial activities by governmental agencies to limit the spread of the virus,~~ including new variants. ~~For example, the~~The recent roll back of China’s zero-COVID restrictions have led to an increase of COVID-19 cases in certain regions ofin China ~~and the resulting restrictions have~~which has negatively impacted our operations in ~~China, including temporary shutdowns and production curtailments.~~this region. Future developments of the pandemic, including disparity in areas of significant regional spread compared to areas with higher vaccination availability and rates, may cause uneven impacts to our geographies around the world.

Non-U.S. GAAP Information

We present financial information that conforms to U.S. GAAP. We also present financial information that does not conform to U.S. GAAP, as our management believes it is useful to investors. In addition, non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are used by management to review and analyze our operating performance and, along with other data, as internal measures for setting annual budgets and forecasts, assessing financial performance, providing guidance and comparing our financial performance with our peers. Non-U.S. GAAP financial measures also provide management with additional means to understand and evaluate

the core operating results and trends in our ongoing business by eliminating certain expenses and/or gains (which may not occur in each period presented) and other items that management believes might otherwise make comparisons of our ongoing business with prior periods and peers more difficult, obscure trends in ongoing operations or reduce management’s ability to make useful forecasts. Non-U.S. GAAP information does not purport to represent any similarly titled U.S. GAAP information and is not an indicator of our performance under U.S. GAAP. Investors are cautioned against placing undue reliance on these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures. Further, investors are urged to review and consider carefully the adjustments made by management to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure to arrive at these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, described below.

The non-U.S. GAAP financial metrics exclude certain specified items (“Special Items”), including restructuring charges and restructuring associated costs related to the Reinvent SEE program that concluded as of the end of calendar year 2022, amortization of intangible assets and inventory step-up expense related to the acquisition of Liquibox, adjustments in the valuation of our "SEE Ventures" portfolio (which may include debt, equity method or equity investments), and other charges related to acquisitions and divestitures, gains and losses related to acquisitions and divestitures, special tax items or tax benefits (collectively, “Tax Special Items”) and certain other items. We evaluate unusual or Special Items on an individual basis. Our evaluation of whether to exclude an unusual or special item for purposes of determining our non-U.S. GAAP financial measures considers both the quantitative and qualitative aspects of the item, including among other things (i) its nature, (ii) whether or not it relates to our ongoing business operations, and (iii) whether or not we expect it to occur as part of our normal business on a regular basis. Beginning in 2023, the Company is now including adjustments for amortization-related expense related to the Liquibox acquired intangibles. The change will be prospective and will not impact previously presented results. This change was made to better align the Company's definitions of Special Items with those of its peers, to better reflect the Company's operating performance, and to increase the usefulness of such measures for our stakeholders.

When we present non-U.S. GAAP forward-looking guidance, we do not also provide guidance for the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures, as they are not available without unreasonable effort due to the high variability, complexity, and low visibility with respect to certain Special Items, including gains and losses on the disposition of businesses, the ultimate outcome of certain legal or tax proceedings, foreign currency gains or losses resulting from the volatile currency market in Argentina, and other unusual gains and losses. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to our results computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Earnings before Interest Expense, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization, adjusted to exclude the impact of Special Items. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as one of many measures to assess the performance of the business. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is the performance metric used by the Company's chief operating decision maker to evaluate performance of our reportable segments. Adjusted EBITDA is also a metric used to determine performance in the Company's Annual Incentive Plan. We do not believe there are estimates underlying the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, other than those inherent in our U.S. GAAP results of operations, which would render the use and presentation of Adjusted EBITDA misleading. While the nature and amount of individual Special Items vary from period to period, we believe our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA is applied consistently to all periods and, in conjunction with other U.S. GAAP and non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, Adjusted EBITDA provides a useful and consistent comparison of our Company's performance to other periods.

(2)Beginning in 2023, the Company redefined Special Items to include amortization of the Liquibox acquired intangibles. The change is prospective and only applies to the amortization of Liquibox acquired intangibles.

(3)Other Special Items for the three months ended March 31, 2023 primarily relate to ~~fees paid to third-party consultants in support of the Reinvent SEE business transformation and for the six months ended June 30, 2021, also includes~~ a one-time, non-cash CTA loss recognized due to the wind-up of one of our legal entities.

~~(2)~~Other Special Items for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2022, relate to fees paid for professional services, including legal fees, directly associated with Special Items of events that are considered one-time or infrequent in nature. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the professional fees are offset primarily ~~due~~relate to a one-time gain on the disposal of land in the UK.

The Company may also assess performance using Adjusted EBITDA Margin. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA Margin is a useful measure to assess the profitability of sales made to third parties and the efficiency of our core operations.

Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Earnings Per Share

Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Earnings Per Share (“Adjusted EPS”) are also used by the Company to measure total company performance. Adjusted Net Earnings is defined as U.S. GAAP net earnings from continuing operations excluding the impact of Special Items. Adjusted EPS is defined as our Adjusted Net Earnings divided by the number of diluted shares outstanding. We believe that Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted EPS are useful measurements of Company performance, along with other U.S. GAAP and non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, because they incorporate non-cash items of depreciation and amortization, including stock-based compensation, which impact the overall performance and net earnings of our business. Additionally, Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted EPS reflect the impact of our Adjusted Tax Rate and interest expense on a net and per share basis. While the nature and amount of individual Special Items vary from period to period, we believe our calculation of Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted EPS is applied consistently to all periods and, in conjunction with other U.S. GAAP and non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted EPS provide a useful and consistent comparison of our Company's performance to other periods.

The following table shows a reconciliation of U.S. GAAP Net Earnings and Diluted Earnings per Share from continuing operations to non-U.S. GAAP Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted EPS from continuing operations.

~~(2)Adjusted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 does not sum due to rounding.~~

Adjusted Tax Rate

We also present our adjusted income tax rate (“Adjusted Tax Rate”). The Adjusted Tax Rate is a measure of our U.S. GAAP effective tax rate, adjusted to exclude the tax impact from the Special Items that are excluded from our Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted EPS metrics as well as expense or benefit from any special taxes or Tax Special Items. The Adjusted Tax Rate is an indicator of the taxes on our core business. The tax circumstances and effective tax rate in the specific countries where the Special Items occur will determine the impact (positive or negative) to the Adjusted Tax Rate. While the nature and amount of Tax Special Items vary from period to period, we believe our calculation of the Adjusted Tax Rate is applied consistently to all periods and, in conjunction with our U.S. GAAP effective income tax rate, the Adjusted Tax Rate provides a useful and consistent comparison of the impact that tax expense has on our Company's performance.

The following table shows our calculation of the non-U.S. GAAP Adjusted income tax rate:

(2)The tax rate used to calculate the tax impact of Special Items is based on the jurisdiction in which the item was recorded.

Organic and Constant Dollar Measures

In our “Net Sales by Geographic Region,” “Net Sales by Segment,” and in some of the discussions and tables that follow, we exclude the impact of foreign currency translation when presenting net sales information, which we define as “constant dollar”, and we exclude acquisitions in the first year after closing, divestiture activity from the time of sale, and the impact of foreign

currency translation when presenting net sales information, which we define as “organic.” Changes in net sales excluding the impact of foreign currency translation and/or acquisition and divestiture activity are non-U.S. GAAP financial measures. As a worldwide business, it is important that we consider the effects of foreign currency translation when we view our results and plan our strategies. Nonetheless, we cannot control changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Consequently, when our management analyzes our financial results including performance metrics such as sales, cost of sales or selling, general and administrative expense, to measure the core performance of our business, we may exclude the impact of foreign currency translation by translating our current period results at prior period foreign currency exchange rates. We also may exclude the impact of foreign currency translation when making incentive compensation determinations. As a result, our management believes that these presentations are useful internally and may be useful to investors.

Refer to these specific tables presented later in our MD&A for reconciliations of these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures.

Free Cash Flow

In addition to net cash provided by operating activities, we use free cash flow as a useful measure of performance and an indication of the strength and ability of our operations to generate cash. We define free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures (which is classified as an investing activity). Free cash flow is not defined under U.S. GAAP. Therefore, free cash flow should not be considered a substitute for net income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Free cash flow does not represent residual cash available for discretionary expenditures, as certain debt servicing requirements or other non-discretionary expenditures are not deducted from this measure.

Refer to the specific tables presented later in our MD&A under Analysis of Historical Cash Flow for reconciliations of this non-U.S. GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure.

Net Debt

In addition to total debt, we use Net Debt, which we define as total debt less cash and cash equivalents, as a useful measure of our total debt exposure. Net Debt is not defined under U.S. GAAP. Therefore, Net Debt should not be considered a substitute for amounts owed to creditors or other balance sheet information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and it may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Refer to the specific table presented later in our MD&A under Outstanding Indebtedness for reconciliation of this non-U.S. GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure.

Foreign Currency Translation Impact on Condensed Consolidated Financial Results

Since we are a U.S. domiciled company, we translate our foreign currency-denominated financial results into U.S. dollars. Due to the changes in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, translating our financial results from foreign currencies to U.S. dollars may result in a favorable or unfavorable impact. Historically, the most significant currencies that have impacted the translation of our condensed consolidated financial results are the euro, the Australian dollar, the ~~British pound,~~Mexican peso, the Canadian dollar, the British pound, the Chinese Renminbi, ~~the Mexican peso,~~ the Brazilian real and the New Zealand dollar.

The following table presents the approximate favorable or (unfavorable) impact that foreign currency translation had on certain components of our condensed consolidated financial results:

~~Reinvent SEE Business Transformation and Restructuring Activities~~

~~See Note 12, “Restructuring Activities” for additional details regarding the Company’s restructuring programs discussed below.~~

In December 2018, the Sealed Air Board of Directors approved a three-year restructuring program (the “Program”) related to the Reinvent SEE business transformation. The Board of Directors extended these activities and related charges to the end of calendar year 2022. This extension does not expand the original total Program spend. We expect the Program to generate cost benefits of approximately $45 million in 2022 and expect Program spend for the full year 2022 to be approximately $25 million.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded other associated costs of $4 million and $7 million, respectively, primarily related to site consolidation costs and fees paid to third-party consultants in support of the Reinvent SEE business transformation. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded restructuring expense of $4 million.

We expect the continuous improvement capabilities and governance processes established through Reinvent SEE will continue to transform the SEE Operating Engine, which is rooted in economic value add with the goal to drive profitable, above market organic growth and attractive returns on invested capital.

The actual timing of future costs and cash payments related to the Program described above are subject to change due to a variety of factors that may cause a portion of the costs, spending and benefits to occur later than expected. In addition, changes in foreign exchange rates may impact future costs, spending, benefits and cost synergies.Liquibox intangible assets.

Income Taxes

Our effective income tax rate for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 was ~~27% and 28%, respectively.~~35%. The ~~three month~~three-month period was unfavorably impacted by accruals for unresolved controversy ~~whereas~~which had a disproportionate impact on the ~~six month period~~rate as a result of lower earnings before income tax provision.

Our effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was 28%, and was favorably impacted by the tax impact of share price accretion in equity compensation vesting and unfavorably impacted by accruals for unresolved controversy and nonrecurring intercompany dividend distributions.

Our effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was 30% and 32%, respectively, both of which were negatively impacted by legislative and administrative changes to foreign enacted statutes and accruals for unresolved controversy.

The actual annual effective tax rate could vary as a result of many factors, including but not limited to the following:

•The actual mix of earnings by jurisdiction, which could fluctuate from the Company’s projection;

•The tax effects of other discrete items, including accruals related to tax contingencies, the resolution of worldwide tax matters, tax audit settlements, statute of limitations expirations and changes in tax regulations, which are reflected in the period in which they occur; and

•Any future legislative changes, and any related additional tax optimization to address these changes.

Our effective income tax rate depends upon the realization of our net deferred tax assets. We have deferred tax assets related to accruals not yet deductible for tax purposes, state and foreign net operating loss carryforwards and tax credits, employee benefit items, intangible assets and other items.

The IRS completed its field examination of our U.S. federal income tax returns for the years 2011 through 2014 in the third quarter of 2020. As previously disclosed, the IRS has proposed to disallow for the 2014 taxable year the entirety of the deduction of the approximately $1.49 billion in settlement payments made pursuant to the Settlement agreement (as defined in Note 18, “Commitments and Contingencies”) and the resulting reduction of our U.S. federal tax liability by approximately $525 million. ~~We continue to believe that we have meritorious defenses to the proposed disallowance and have filed a protest with the IRS.~~ The proposed disallowance is being reviewed by the IRS Independent Office of Appeals (“Appeals”). Although we believe we have meritorious defenses to the proposed disallowance, we have reached a tentative agreement to settle this matter with the IRS, which is subject to further review, approval and execution of a definitive agreement by both parties. There can be no assurance that a definitive agreement will be executed and we cannot predict the outcome of ~~such review~~this matter or when it will be concluded. ~~It is possible that future~~We have revised our uncertain tax position to reflect the tentative agreement. On April 20, 2023, we deposited $175 million with the IRS based on an estimate of the federal tax owed per the tentative agreement. Our final settlement amount could differ from the $175 million deposited. Future developments in this matter could have a material impact on the Company's uncertain tax position balances and results of operations, including cash flows, within the next twelve months.

We have established valuation allowances to reduce our deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Our ability to utilize our deferred tax assets depends in part upon our ability to carryback any losses created by the deduction of these temporary differences, the future income from existing temporary differences, and the ability to generate future taxable income within the respective jurisdictions during the periods in which these temporary differences reverse. If we

are unable to generate sufficient future taxable income in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions, or if there is a significant change in the time period within which the underlying temporary differences become taxable or deductible, we could be required to increase our valuation allowances against our deferred tax assets. Conversely, if we have sufficient future taxable income in jurisdictions where we have valuation allowances, we may be able to reduce those valuation allowances.

There was no significant change in our valuation allowances for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and ~~2021.~~2022.

Net increases in unrecognized tax positions of $3$7 million and $9$6 million for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, ~~respectively, and $3 million and $8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021,~~ respectively, were primarily related to interest accruals on existing uncertain tax positions. We are not currently able to reasonably estimate the amount by which the liability for unrecognized tax positions may increase or decrease during the next 12 months as a result of future tax controversy developments or resolution. Interest and penalties on tax assessments are included in Income tax provision on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations

Three Months Ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 Compared with the Same Period in ~~2021~~2022

Net earnings in 2023 were unfavorably impacted by $44 million of Special Items, including:

•charges related to acquisitions and divestiture activity of $17 million ($15 million, net of taxes);

•Liquibox inventory step-up expense of $8 million ($6 million, net of taxes);

•Liquibox intangible amortization of $5 million ($4 million, net of taxes);

•loss on debt redemption and refinancing activities of $5 million ($4 million, net of taxes); and

•foreign currency loss on highly inflationary economies of $3 million ($3 million, net of taxes).

Net earnings in 2022 were unfavorably impacted by ~~$34~~$19 million of Special Items, primarily due to to:

•impairment of an equity investment of $16 million ($12 million, net of taxes)~~, loss on debt redemption and refinancing activities of $11 million ($8 million, net of taxes), restructuring and associated costs of $7 million ($6 million, net of taxes) and~~ ;

•one-time tax expenses (“Tax Special Items”) of ~~$3 million.~~$7 million; and

~~Net earnings in 2021 were unfavorably impacted by $13 million of Special Items, which were largely due to~~ •restructuring and associated costs of $7$4 million ($3 million, net of taxes).

These expenses were partially offset by:

•$6 million ($5 million, net of taxes) ~~as well as one-time tax expenses (“Tax Special Items”)~~gain on sale of ~~$6 million. Tax Special Items primarily reflect~~land in the impact of legislative and administrative changes to foreign enacted statues. Restructuring associated costs in 2021 primarily relate to fees paid to third-party consultants in support of the Reinvent SEE business transformation.

~~Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 Compared with the Same Period of 2021~~

~~For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net earnings were unfavorably impacted by $53 million of Special Items. Special Items were primarily the result of:~~

•~~$11 million ($8 million, net of taxes) loss on debt redemption and refinancing activities;~~

•~~$11 million ($8 million, net of taxes) of restructuring and associated costs in support of the Reinvent SEE business transformation; and~~

•~~$10 million of Tax Special Items including accruals for open items subject to tax audits and nonrecurring intercompany dividend distributions.~~

~~For the six months ended June 30, 2021, net earnings were unfavorably impacted by $29 million of Special Items. Special Items were primarily the result of:~~

•~~$16 million of Tax Special Items, including accruals for open items subject to tax audits as well as legislative and administrative changes to foreign enacted statues; and~~

•$12 million ($9 million, net of taxes) of restructuring and associated costs in support of the Reinvent SEE business transformation, inclusive of a one-time, non-cash CTA loss recognized due to the wind-up of one of our legal entities as well as fees paid to third-party consultants in support of the Reinvent SEE business transformation.

Adjusted EBITDA by Segment

The Company evaluates performance of the reportable segments based on the results of each segment. The performance metric used by the Company's chief operating decision maker to evaluate the performance of our reportable segments is Segment Adjusted EBITDA. We allocate and disclose depreciation and amortization expense to our segments, although depreciation and amortization are not included in the segment performance metric Segment Adjusted EBITDA. We also allocate and disclose restructuring and other charges and impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets by segment, although these items are not included in the segment performance metric Segment Adjusted EBITDA since restructuring and other charges and impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets are categorized as Special Items. The accounting policies of the reportable segments and Corporate are the same as those applied to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

See “Non-U.S. GAAP Information” for a reconciliation of U.S. GAAP net earnings from continuing operations to non-U.S. GAAP Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations.

The table below sets forth the Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and ~~2021.~~2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Principal Sources of Liquidity

Our primary sources of cash are the collection of trade receivables generated from the sales of our products and services to our customers and amounts available under our existing lines of credit, including our senior secured credit facility, and our accounts receivable securitization programs. Our primary uses of cash are payments for operating expenses, investments in working capital, capital expenditures, interest, taxes, stock repurchases, dividends, debt obligations, restructuring expenses and other long-term liabilities. We believe that our current liquidity position and future cash flows from operations will enable us to fund our operations, including all of the items mentioned above, in the next twelve months.

As of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of ~~$281~~$303 million, of which approximately ~~$220~~$259 million, or ~~78%~~85%, was located outside of the U.S. We believe our U.S. cash balances and committed liquidity facilities available to U.S. borrowers are sufficient to fund our U.S. operating requirements and capital expenditures, current debt obligations and dividends. The Company does not expect that, in the near term, cash located outside of the U.S. will be needed to satisfy our obligations, dividends and other demands for cash in the U.S. Of the cash balances located outside of the U.S., approximately $9$8 million are in the Company's subsidiaries in Russia and Ukraine. We have no other material cash balances deemed to be trapped as of ~~June 30, 2022.~~March 31, 2023.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The following table summarizes our accumulated cash and cash equivalents:



(In millions)	(In millions)	June 30, 2022		December 31, 2021		(In millions)	March 31, 2023		December 31, 2022
Cash and cash equivalents	Cash and cash equivalents	$	281.2	$	561.0	Cash and cash equivalents	$	303.1	$	456.1

See “Analysis of Historical Cash Flow” below.

Accounts Receivable Securitization Programs

At ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we had ~~$134~~$137 million available to us and no$134 million of outstanding borrowings under our U.S. and European accounts receivable securitization programs. At December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, we had ~~$141~~$135 million available to us and no outstanding borrowings under the such programs.

Our trade receivable securitization programs represent borrowings secured by outstanding customer receivables. Therefore, the use and repayment of borrowings under such programs are classified as financing activities in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. We do not recognize the cash flow within operating activities until the underlying invoices have been paid by our customer. The trade receivables that served as collateral for these borrowings are reclassified from Trade receivables, net to Prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 10, “Accounts Receivable Securitization Programs” for further details.

Accounts Receivable Factoring Agreements

We account for our participation in our customers' supply chain financing arrangements and our trade receivable factoring program in accordance with ASC Topic 860, which allows the ownership transfer of accounts receivable to qualify for sale treatment when the appropriate criteria are met. As such, the Company excludes the balances sold under such programs from Trade receivables, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. We recognize cash flow from operating activities at the point the receivables are sold under such programs. See Note 11, “Accounts Receivable Factoring Agreements” for further details.

Gross amounts received under these programs for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, were ~~$353~~$195 million ~~of which $181~~and $172 million, ~~was received in the second quarter. Gross amounts received under these programs for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were $305 million, of which $149 million was received in the second quarter.~~respectively. If these programs had not been in effect for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we would have been required to collect the invoice amounts directly from the relevant customers in accordance with the agreed payment terms. Approximately ~~$157~~$134 million in incremental trade receivables would have been outstanding at ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 if collection on such invoice amounts were made directly from our customers on the invoice due date and not through our customers' supply chain financing arrangements or our factoring program.

Lines of Credit

At ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, we had a $1.0 billion revolving credit facility, with $985 million available as part of our senior secured credit facility. We had $39 million and no outstanding borrowings under the facility at ~~June 30, 2022 or~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021.~~2022, respectively. There was $2$3 million and $1$7 million outstanding under various lines of credit extended to our subsidiaries at ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, respectively. See Note 13, “Debt and Credit Facilities” for further details.

~~LIBOR Phase Out~~

In July 2017, the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), which regulates LIBOR, announced the phase out LIBOR. In March 2021, the FCA announced that specific U.S. dollar LIBOR tenors (overnight, 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and 12-month) will continue to be published until June 30, 2023, while the 1-week and 2-month tenors are no longer being

published effective December 31, 2021. Similarly, all tenors for EUR, CHF, JPY and GBP LIBOR currencies are no longer being published effective December 31, 2021. Regulators in the U.S. and other jurisdictions have worked to replace these rates with alternative reference interest rates that are supported by transactions in liquid and observable markets, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"). The phase-out of LIBOR will not have a material impact on our financing or liquidity. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04. This ASU, along with subsequently issued ASU 2021-01, are designed to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform; however, neither the LIBOR phase-out nor these ASUs had a material impact on the Company.

~~SOFR~~

On March 25, 2022, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a fourth amended and restated syndicated facility agreement whereby its existing senior secured credit facility was amended and restated (the “Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) which converted the facilities rate from a LIBOR-based rate to a SOFR-based rate. See Note 13, "Debt and Credit Facilities" for further details.

Covenants

At ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we were in compliance with our financial covenants and limitations, as discussed in “Covenants” within Note 13, “Debt and Credit Facilities”, which require us, among other things, to maintain a maximum leverage ratio of debt to EBITDA of ~~4.50~~5.00 to 1.00. At ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, as calculated under the covenant, our leverage ratio was ~~2.42~~3.48 to 1.00. We expect to be in continued compliance with our debt covenants including the covenant leverage ratio over the next 12 months.

Supply Chain Financing Programs

As part of our ongoing efforts to manage our working capital and improve our cash flow, we work with suppliers to optimize our purchasing terms and conditions, including extending payment terms. We also facilitate a voluntary supply chain financing program to provide some of our suppliers with the opportunity to sell receivables due from us (our accounts payables) to participating financial institutions at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institutions. These programs are administered by participating financial institutions. Should a supplier choose to participate in the program, it will receive payment from the financial institution in advance of agreed payment terms; our responsibility is limited to making payments to the respective financial institutions on the terms originally negotiated with our supplier. The range of payment terms is consistent regardless of a vendor's participation in the program. We monitor our days payable outstanding relative to our peers and industry trends in order to assess our conclusion that these programs continue to be trade payable programs and not indicative of borrowing arrangements.

Operating Activities

~~Six~~Three Months Ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 Compared with the Same Period in ~~2021~~2022

Net cash provided by operating activities was ~~$213~~$52 million in the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, compared to ~~$200~~$48 million in ~~2021.~~2022. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by ~~higher~~lower net cash used by our working capital accounts (inventories, trade receivables and accounts payables), which was $102 million favorable in 2023 compared to 2022. The impact of trade receivables on cash flow from operating activities was $87 million favorable compared to 2022, as a result of the year over year impact of our accounts receivable factoring program and an increase in collections from our customers. There was a lower use of cash for inventory of $88 million compared to 2022, primarily due to planned stock build in 2022 compared to inventory reduction efforts in 2023. The favorable cash flow impact of trade receivables and inventory was partially offset by accounts payable, which was unfavorable by $73 million compared to 2022, which was primarily due to lower purchases related to the current year inventory reduction efforts and lower sales volume.

This was partially offset by lower earnings and adjustments to reconcile net earnings to net cash provided by operating activities ("non-cash adjustments") recorded in ~~2022~~2023 compared to the

same period in ~~2021.~~2022. Net earnings plus non-cash adjustments was a source of cash of ~~$450~~$165 million in the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 compared to ~~$358~~$238 million in ~~2021.~~2022.

Other assets and liabilities ~~favorably~~unfavorably impacted cash flow by ~~$64~~$10 million compared to ~~2021.~~2022. This was ~~partially~~primarily due to the impact of incentive compensation, including ~~lower~~higher cash payments made during the first quarter ~~2022,~~2023, as compared to the prior year, coupled with a ~~higher~~lower accrual as of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, as compared to the prior year. ~~Value Added Tax payments were also favorable on net cash provided by operating activities compared to the prior year.~~

This was partially offset by net cash used by our working capital accounts (inventories, trade receivables and accounts payables), which was $110 million unfavorable in 2022 compared to 2021. There was lower cash generation from accounts payable by $79 million compared to 2021, which was primarily due to a higher rate of raw material inflation and higher freight costs due to supply disruptions in the first six months of 2021. There was a higher use of cash for inventory of $79 million compared to 2021, partly driven by higher inventory due to raw material cost inflation and planned stock build as a result of continued supply disruptions.

Investing Activities

~~Six~~Three Months Ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 Compared with the Same Period in ~~2021~~2022

Net cash used in investing activities was ~~$122~~$1,207 million in ~~2022~~2023 compared to a use of ~~$95~~$69 million in ~~2021.~~2022.

The increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to $22 million in higher capital expenditures compared to the prior year. The increase reflects the Company's continued investment in assets that support growth in automation, digital and sustainability. Investing activity also included the settlement of foreign currency forward contracts which generated $7 million less cash in 2022 compared to the prior year.

~~In the first six months of 2022, we invested a total of $12 million in SEE Ventures initiatives compared to $15 million in 2021.~~acquisition activities. During the first quarter of ~~2022, the investments included~~2023, we completed the acquisition of ~~Foxpak Flexibles Ltd. and an investment made in a fund aimed to advance scalable recycling technologies, equipment upgrades and infrastructure solutions, which is being accounted~~Liquibox for ~~as an equity method investment. During the second quarter~~$1,148 million, net of 2022, we made an investment in the convertible debt of one investee company. Under the SEE Ventures initiative, we make select entrepreneurial investments that present opportunities to accelerate innovation and increase speed to market, while creating a sustainable competitive advantage. SEE Ventures is part of our capital allocation strategy focused on investing in early stage disruptive technologies and new business modelscash acquired. See Note 5, "Acquisitions," for ~~growth.~~further details.

~~These investing activities were partially offset by proceeds~~Proceeds received from the disposal of property and equipment ~~which generated $6~~was $7 million ~~of incremental cash inflow~~lower in ~~2022~~2023 as compared to the prior year, primarily due to the sale of land in the ~~UK.~~UK in the prior year.

Financing Activities

~~Six~~Three Months Ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 Compared with the Same Period in ~~2021~~2022

Net cash ~~used in~~provided by financing activities was ~~$357~~$999 million in ~~2022,~~2023, compared to ~~$386~~a use of $262 million ~~used~~ in ~~2021. The decrease~~2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the increase in cash ~~outflows for~~inflows from financing activities ~~was~~were primarily related to ~~lower share repurchases,~~debt related activities, which generated $1,133 million of cash in 2023, including the issuance of $775 million 6.125% Senior Notes due 2028, less $11 million in capitalized issuance costs, $650 million of proceeds from Term Loan A due 2027, less $11 million in capitalized issuance costs and $168 million of net proceeds from short-term borrowings, partially offset by the ~~netting~~extinguishment of ~~common stock~~4.500% Senior Notes due 2023, resulting in cash outflow of $437 million (including the early payment premium of $5 million).

In addition, cash used for ~~tax withholding obligations relating to stock-based compensation and dividends payments.~~

~~During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company repurchased $250~~share repurchases was $80 million, ~~in shares~~ compared to ~~$300~~$200 million in the prior year. The netting of common stock for tax withholding obligations relating to stock-based compensation was $25 million compared to $14 million in the prior year. Dividends paid of $60 million were $4 million higher than the prior year due to the increase in the quarterly dividends effective since the second quarter of 2021.

The ~~$443~~$299 million, or ~~712%~~855%, increase in working capital during the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 was primarily due the following:

•~~increase~~decrease in ~~trade receivables, net~~accounts payable of ~~$20 million, primarily on higher sales in the current year.~~$39 million.

The increases in working capital were partially offset by:

•~~$28 million increase in accounts payable;~~$153 million; and

•~~$10~~decrease in trade receivables, net of $111 million, ~~increase in income tax payable,~~ primarily due to the ~~U.S. quarterly income tax accrual.~~reclassification to prepaid expenses and other current assets related to our accounts receivable securitization programs.

Changes in Stockholders’ Equity

The ~~$49~~$2 million, or ~~20%~~1%, ~~decrease~~increase in stockholders’ equity in the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 was primarily due to the following:

•net earnings of $62 million;

•CTA gain of $37 million; and

•stock issued for profit sharing contribution paid in stock of $24 million.

These increases were partially offset by:

•repurchases of ~~3,913,697~~1,529,575 shares of our common stock for ~~$250~~$80 million, including commissions paid (See Note 19, “Stockholders’ Equity” for further details);

•dividends paid on our common stock and dividend equivalent accruals related to unvested equity awards of ~~$60 million; and~~

•~~CTA loss of $59~~$30 million.

~~These decreases were partially offset by:~~

•~~net earnings of $263 million;~~

•unrealized ~~gains~~losses on derivative instruments of ~~$28~~$8 million;

•~~stock issued for profit sharing contribution paid in stock of $23 million;~~ and

•the effect of share-based incentive compensation of $4$3 million, including the impact of share-based compensation expense and shares withheld on vested share-based compensation to cover the employee tax withholding ~~obligations; and~~

•~~the recognition of pension items within AOCL of $2 million.~~obligations.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

At ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we were party to foreign currency forward contracts, which did not have a significant impact on our liquidity.

The information set forth in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q in Note 14, “Derivatives and Hedging Activities,” under the caption “Foreign Currency Forward Contracts Designated as Cash Flow Hedges” and “Foreign Currency Forward Contracts Not Designated as Hedges” is incorporated herein by reference. For further discussion about these contracts and other financial instruments, see Part I, Item 3, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.”

Recently Issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards, Accounting Guidance and Disclosure Requirements

We are subject to recently issued statements of financial accounting standards, accounting guidance and disclosure requirements. Note 2, “Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Standards” which is contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, describes these new accounting standards and is incorporated herein by reference.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed in our ~~2021~~2022 Form 10-K. For a discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates, refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in Part II, Item 7 of our ~~2021~~2022 Form 10-K.


Item 3.			Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk from changes in the conditions in the global financial markets, interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices and the creditworthiness of our customers and suppliers, which may adversely affect our consolidated financial condition and results of operations. We seek to minimize these risks through regular operating and financing activities and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. We do not purchase, hold or sell derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

Interest Rates

From time to time, we may use interest rate swaps, collars or options to manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. At ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we had no outstanding interest rate swaps, collars or options.

The information set forth in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q in Note 14, “Derivatives and Hedging Activities,” under the caption “Interest Rate Swaps,” is incorporated herein by reference.

See Note 15, “Fair Value Measurements, Equity Investments and Other Financial Instruments,” for details of the methodology and inputs used to determine the fair value of our fixed rate debt. The fair value of our fixed rate debt varies with changes in interest rates. Generally, the fair value of fixed rate debt will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. A hypothetical 10% increase in interest rates would result in a decrease of ~~$73~~$80 million in the fair value of the total debt balance at ~~June 30, 2022.~~March 31, 2023. These changes in the fair value of our fixed rate debt do not alter our obligations to repay the outstanding principal amount or any related interest of such debt.

5856

Foreign Exchange Rates

Operations

As a large global organization, we face exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These exposures may change over time as business practices evolve and could materially impact our consolidated financial condition and results of operations in the future. See Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” above for the impacts that foreign currency translation had on our operations.

Argentina

Economic events in Argentina, including the default on some of its international debt obligations, which have subsequently been renegotiated, exposed us to heightened levels of foreign currency exchange risks. Despite some recent debt restructuring, fluctuations in foreign exchange rates on the Argentine Peso continue to impact our financial results. As of July 1, 2018, Argentina was designated as a highly inflationary economy. We recognized a net foreign currency exchange loss of $3 million and $4$1 million in three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, ~~respectively and $1 million and $2 million in three and six months ended June 30, 2021,~~ respectively, within Other ~~(expense) income,~~expense, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, related to the designation of Argentina as a highly inflationary economy under U.S. GAAP. See Note 1, "Organization and Basis of Presentation," for additional information. As of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, approximately 1% of our consolidated net sales were derived from our products sold in Argentina and our net assets include $2$6 million of cash and cash equivalents domiciled in Argentina. Also, as of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, our Argentina subsidiaries had cumulative translation losses of $22 million.

Russia

Recent fluctuations of the ruble ~~has~~have exposed us to heightened levels of foreign currency exchange risks. As of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, approximately 1% of our consolidated net sales were derived from products sold in Russia. Assets include $7$5 million of cash and cash equivalents domiciled in Russia. Also, as of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, our Russia subsidiary had cumulative translation losses of ~~$13~~$39 million.

Brazil

Recent economic events in Brazil, including changes in the benchmark interest rate set by the Brazilian Central Bank, have exposed us to heightened levels of foreign currency exchange risks. However, as of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we do not anticipate these events will have a material impact on our ~~2022~~2023 results of operations. As of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, approximately 2% of our consolidated net sales were derived from products sold in Brazil and net assets include ~~$18~~$21 million of cash and cash equivalents domiciled in Brazil. Also, as of ~~June 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, our Brazil subsidiaries had cumulative translation losses of ~~$64~~$63 million.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

We use foreign currency forward contracts to fix the amounts payable or receivable on some transactions denominated in foreign currencies. A hypothetical 10% adverse change in foreign exchange rates at ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 would have caused us to pay approximately ~~$25~~$37 million to terminate these contracts. Based on our overall foreign exchange exposure, we estimate this change would not materially affect our financial position and liquidity. The effect on our results of operations would be substantially offset by the impact of the hedged items.

Our foreign currency forward contracts are described in Note 14, “Derivatives and Hedging Activities,” which is incorporated herein by reference.

Net Investment Hedge

spot method for assessing the effectiveness of these contracts. The maturity date for this series of cross-currency swaps is February 1, 2028. The fair value of ~~the debt was $24 million, net of tax~~this hedge as of ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 was a $0.9 million loss and is ~~reflected in AOCL,~~included within Other non-current liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Interest amounts related to the cross-currency swap as of March 31, 2023 resulted in $0.5 million of interest income and is reflected in Interest expense, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedges of net investments in foreign operations, settlements and changes in fair values of the derivative instruments are recognized in unrealized gains (losses) on derivative instruments for net

investment hedge, a component of AOCL, net of taxes, to offset the changes in the values of the net investments being hedged. Any portion of the net investment hedge that is determined to be ineffective is recorded in Other ~~(expense) income,~~expense, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Other Derivative Instruments

Outstanding Debt

Our outstanding debt is generally denominated in the functional currency of the ~~borrower or in euros as is the case with the issuance of €400 million of 4.500% senior notes due 2023.~~borrower. We believe that this enables us to better match operating cash flows with debt service requirements and to better match the currency of assets and liabilities. The U.S. dollar equivalent amount of outstanding debt denominated in a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar was ~~$453~~$125 million and ~~$492~~$467 million at ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, respectively.

Customer Credit

We are exposed to credit risk from our customers. In the normal course of business, we extend credit to our customers if they satisfy pre-defined credit criteria. We maintain an allowance for credit losses on trade receivables for estimated losses resulting from the failure of our customers to make required payments. An additional allowance may be required if the financial condition of our customers deteriorates. Our customers may default on their obligations to us due to bankruptcy, lack of liquidity, operational failure or other reasons.

Item 4.			Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that our employees accumulate this information and communicate it to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and our Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding the required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only “reasonable assurance” of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily must apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures under Rule 13a-15. Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, supervised and participated in this evaluation. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the “reasonable assurance” level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended ~~June 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

On January 14, 2020, a stockholder derivative lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware by an alleged stockholder of the Company, purportedly on the Company’s behalf. The suit was brought against certain of the Company’s current and former directors and officers and against the Company, as a nominal defendant. The complaint contained allegations against the individual defendants under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder similar to those in the class action complaint discussed above, as well as allegations of violations of Section 14(a) under the Exchange Act. The complaint also alleged breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment and waste of corporate assets by the individual defendants for, among other things, failure to correct the alleged false and misleading statements, insider sales of the company’s stock, compensation benefiting from the alleged artificially inflated stock value, company repurchases of shares based on the alleged inflated stock value, and costs in connection with lawsuits and internal investigations. The complaint sought unspecified damages for Sealed Air, restitution, and reformation and improvement of Sealed Air’s corporate governance and internal procedures regarding compliance with laws. The defendants moved to dismiss the complaint on December 3, 2021. On June 8, 2022, Magistrate Judge Hall issued a report and recommendation in favor of granting the motion.
