Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation	Note 1. Nature of Operation s and Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements comprise the accounts of Pactiv Evergreen Inc. (“PTVE”) and its subsidiaries (“we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company”) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on February 29, 2024. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Although our current estimates contemplate current conditions and how we expect them to change in the future, as appropriate, it is reasonably possible that actual conditions could differ from what was anticipated in those estimates, which could materially affect our results of operations, balance sheet and cash flows. Among other effects, such changes could result in future impairments of goodwill, intangibles and long-lived assets, and adjustments to reserves for employee benefits and income taxes. The estimated recoverable amounts associated with asset impairments represent Level 3 measurements in the fair value hierarchy, which include inputs that are not based on observable market data. Reclassifications We made reclassifications to certain previously reported financial information to conform to our current period presentation. Recent Accounting Pronouncements We reviewed all recently issued accounting pronouncements and, except for the items below, concluded that they were either not applicable or not expected to have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07 Segment Reporting - Improving Reportable Segment Disclosures (Topic 280). The ASU is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant expenses. The ASU requires disclosures to include significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”), a description of other segment items by reportable segment and, if necessary, any additional measures of a segment’s profit or loss used by the CODM when deciding how to allocate resources. The ASU also requires all annual disclosures currently required by Topic 280 to be included in interim periods. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments should be applied on a retrospective basis to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Although we are still assessing, we expect the adoption of this ASU to result in additional disclosure of certain segment expenses in the footnotes to our consolidated financial statements. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 Income Taxes - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740) requiring enhanced income tax disclosures. The ASU requires the disclosure of specific categories and disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation table. The ASU also requires disclosure of disaggregated information related to income taxes paid, income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit, and income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations. The requirements of the ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. We are currently assessing the impact of the ASU on our related disclosures. In March 2024, the SEC adopted final rules under SEC Release No. 33-11275, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors, which, as adopted, require registrants to include certain climate-related information in their annual reports and registration statements. The rules require, among other matters, information about climate-related risks that are reasonably likely to have a material impact on a registrant’s business, results of operations or financial condition. The required information about climate-related risks also includes disclosure of a registrant’s greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, the rules would require registrants to include certain climate-related financial disclosures in their audited financial statements. As adopted, these disclosure requirements would be phased in over several years beginning with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2026. However, while the SEC has adopted these rules, the rules have been stayed and are subject to pending legal and political challenges causing significant uncertainty regarding when and how they will ultimately apply to us. We are currently assessing the impact of these rules on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Restructuring, Asset Impairment

Restructuring, Asset Impairment and Other Related Charges	9 Months Ended
	Sep. 30, 2024
Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]
Restructuring, Asset Impairment and Other Related Charges	Note 2. Restructuring, Asset Impairment and Other Related Charges Footprint Optimization On February 29, 2024, we announced the Footprint Optimization, a restructuring plan approved by our Board of Directors to optimize our manufacturing and warehousing footprint that we expect will improve our operating efficiency. We expect to incur capital expenditures of $ 40 million to $ 45 million, total cash restructuring charges of $ 50 million to $ 65 million and total non-cash charges of $ 20 million to $ 40 million, each primarily during 2024 and 2025, to execute our plan. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 , we incurred cash charges of $ 3 million and $ 11 million, respectively, primarily related to severance and other exit costs. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we incurred non-cash charges of $ 1 million and $ 6 million, respectively, primarily related to accelerated property, plant and equipment depreciation. The estimated ranges of restructuring charges are provisional and include significant management judgments and assumptions that could change materially as we execute our plans. Actual results may differ from these estimates, and the execution of our plan could result in additional restructuring charges or impairments. Beverage Merchandising Restructuring On March 6, 2023 , we announced the Beverage Merchandising Restructuring, a plan approved by our Board of Directors to take significant restructuring actions related to our Beverage Merchandising operations. The Beverage Merchandising Restructuring includes, among other things: • Closure of our Canton, North Carolina mill, including the cessation of mill operations, during the second quarter of 2023; • Closure of our Olmsted Falls, Ohio converting facility and concurrent reallocation of certain production to our remaining converting facilities during the second quarter of 2023; and • Reorganizing our operating and reporting structure to achieve increased efficiencies and related cost savings. Additionally, the plan included the exploration of strategic alternatives for our Pine Bluff, Arkansas mill and our Waynesville, North Carolina extrusion facility (the “Facilities”). Following authorization by our Board of Directors on July 12, 2024, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell the Facilities and associated assets and liabilities to Suzano S.A. (“Suzano”) (the “Mill Transaction”). The Mill Transaction closed on October 1, 2024. We received preliminary proceeds of $ 83 million, inclusive of the $ 10 million exclusivity payment previously received during the second quarter of 2024 and the preliminary calculation of customary adjustments for closing amounts, such as working capital. The exclusivity payment was recorded in other accrued liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2024. The proceeds received are subject to finalization of the aforementioned closing adjustments. We also entered into a long-term liquid packaging board supply arrangement with Suzano upon closing of the Mill Transaction. We classified the assets and liabilities of the Facilities, including an allocated portion of the goodwill associated with the Beverage Merchandising reporting unit, as held for sale as of July 12, 2024. Upon qualifying as held for sale, we measured the disposal group at the lower of its carrying value and its fair value, less costs to sell, and recognized an impairment charge of $ 314 million. In addition to this charge, we recorded an $ 8 million goodwill impairment charge related to the disposal group. The operations of the Facilities did not meet the criteria to be presented as discontinued operations. Additionally, we evaluated the assets of our Beverage Merchandising reporting unit that were not allocated to the disposal group for impairment and determined no additional impairment charge was warranted. The carrying amounts of the major classes of the Facilities’ assets and liabilities classified as held for sale as of September 30, 2024 comprised the following: As of September 30, 2024 Inventories $ 103 Property, plant and equipment, net 301 Other current assets 9 Held for sale valuation allowance ( 314 ) Total current assets held for sale $ 99 Other current liabilities $ ( 22 ) Total current liabilities held for sale $ ( 22 ) As a result of the Beverage Merchandising Restructuring, we incurred charges during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, and we estimate we will incur further charges in future periods, as follows: For the Three Months Ended For the Nine Months Ended Cumulative Charges Total Expected Charges (1)(2) Non-cash: Accelerated property, plant and equipment depreciation $ 3 $ 9 $ 283 $ 286 Mill Transaction impairment charges (3) 322 322 322 322 Other non-cash charges (4) — ( 1 ) 49 52 Total non-cash charges $ 325 $ 330 $ 654 $ 660 Cash: Severance, termination and related costs 1 2 45 46 Exit, disposal and other transition costs (5) 10 22 125 129 Total cash charges $ 11 $ 24 $ 170 $ 175 Total Beverage Merchandising Restructuring charges $ 336 $ 354 $ 824 $ 835 (1) We expect to incur any remaining charges primarily in 2024. These charges include certain estimates that are provisional and include significant management judgments and assumptions that could change materially as we complete the execution of our plans. Actual results may differ from these estimates, and the completion of our plan could result in additional restructuring charges, gains, losses or impairments not reflected above. (2) Total cash charges exclude the benefit of any cash proceeds related to sales of any property, plant and equipment that may be disposed of as part of our ongoing restructuring activities. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we received $ 4 million in cash proceeds and recognized an immaterial gain on the sale of various assets. In addition to the Mill Transaction discussed above, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we also received $ 4 million in proceeds, primarily related to the sale of our Olmsted Falls, Ohio facility that was previously classified as held for sale, resulting in an immaterial gain. (3) Mill Transaction impairment charges included a goodwill impairment charge of $ 8 million related to the Facilities disposal group. (4) Other non-cash charges include the write-down of certain spare parts classified as inventories on our condensed consolidated balance sheet, the write-off of scrapped raw materials and certain construction in-progress balances, accelerated amortization expense for certain operating lease right-of-use assets and gains or losses on the sale of various property, plant and equipment. (5) Exit, disposal and other transition costs are primarily related to equipment decommissioning and dismantlement, transition labor associated with the facility closures and management restructuring, site remediation, contract terminations, systems conversion and other related costs.

Credit Agreement PTVE and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries are parties to a senior secured credit agreement dated August 5, 2016 as amended (the “Credit Agreement”). As of September 30, 2024, the Credit Agreement comprised the following term and revolving tranches: Maturity Date Drawn Applicable Interest Rate Term Tranche U.S. Term Loans Tranche B-4 September 24, 2028 $ 1,257 SOFR (floor of 0.000 %) + 2.500 % Revolving Tranche (1) U.S. Revolving Loans May 1, 2029 $ 330 SOFR (floor of 0.000 %) + 2.500 % (1) The Revolving Tranche represents a $ 1,100 million facility. In addition to the value drawn, the facility include s $ 46 million utilized in the form of letters of credit. We borrowed $ 391 million of our Revolving Tranche facility and repaid $ 61 million plus interest during the first nine months of 2024. On October 31, 2024, we repaid an additional $ 70 million. On May 1, 2024, we amended the Credit Agreement to increase the capacity on our Revolving Tranche facility from $ 250 million to $ 1,100 million and extend the maturity date to May 1, 2029 . We also amended the applicable interest rate and other pricing terms, including by replacing the facility fee with a lower fee on unutilized capacity. On May 28, 2024, we further amended the Credit Agreement to replace the existing $ 990 million outstanding U.S. term loans Tranche B-3 with a new upsized $ 1,330 million tranche of U.S. term loans Tranche B-4. The U.S. term loans Tranche B-4 will mature on September 24, 2028 . The $ 340 million proceeds from upsizing the U.S. term loans, together with the proceeds of a $ 350 million draw upon our Revolving Tranche facility, were used to prepay in full the $ 690 million of existing U.S. term loans Tranche B-2 maturing in February 2026 . The U.S. term loans Tranche B-4 have a lower interest rate relative to the U.S. term loans Tranche B-2 and B-3 that they replaced. There were no other material changes to the terms of the Credit Agreement as a result of these amendments. On September 30, 2024, we repaid $ 70 million of U.S. term loans Tranche B-4, of which $ 67 million was considered a prepayment. As a result of this prepayment, we have no further quarterly amortization payments under the U.S. term loans. The weighted average contractual interest rates related to our U.S. term loans for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were 8.27 % and 8.21 %, respectively. Including the impact of interest rate swap agreements, which were entered into in the fourth quarter of 2022, the weighted average rates on our U.S. term loans were 7.27 % and 7.77 % for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The effective interest rates of our debt obligations under the Credit Agreement are not materially different from the contractual interest rates. Refer to Note 8, Financial Instruments , for additional details regarding the interest rate swap agreements. PTVE and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries have guaranteed on a senior basis the obligations under the Credit Agreement to the extent permitted by law. The borrowers and the guarantors have granted security over substantially all of their assets to support the obligations under the Credit Agreement. This security is expected to be shared on a first priority basis with the holders of the Notes (as defined below). Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement may be voluntarily repaid, in whole or in part, and must be mandatorily repaid in certain circumstances. We are required to make annual prepayments of term loans with up to 50 % of excess cash flow (which will be reduced to 25 % or 0 % if specified senior secured first lien leverage ratios are met) as determined in accordance with the Credit Agreement. No excess cash flow prepayments were due for the year ended December 31, 2023. The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants restricting us from undertaking certain activities including, among others, incurring debt, creating liens over assets, selling assets and making restricted payments, in each case except as permitted under the Credit Agreement. Notes As of September 30, 2024, our outstanding notes were as follows: Maturity Date Interest Payment Dates 4.000 % Senior Secured Notes due 2027 October 15, 2027 April 15 and October 15 4.375 % Senior Secured Notes due 2028 October 15, 2028 April 15 and October 15 The effective interest rates of our debt obligations under the Notes are not materially different from the contractual interest rates. PTVE and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries have guaranteed on a senior basis the obligations under the Notes to the extent permitted by law. The issuers and the guarantors have granted security over substantially all of their assets to support the obligations under the Notes. This security is expected to be shared on a first priority basis with the creditors under the Credit Agreement. The respective indentures governing the 4.000 % Senior Secured Notes due 2027 (the “4.000% Notes”) and the 4.375 % Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (together with the 4.000% Notes, the “Notes”) contain customary covenants restricting us from undertaking certain activities including, among others, incurring debt, creating liens over assets, selling assets and making restricted payments, in each case except as permitted under the respective indentures governing the Notes. Under the respective indentures governing the Notes, we can, at our option, elect to redeem the Notes under terms and conditions specified in the indentures, and in certain circumstances that would constitute a change in control, the holders of the Notes have the right to require us to repurchase the Notes at a premium. Pactiv Debentures As of September 30, 2024, Pactiv LLC, an indirect subsidiary of PTVE, had the following outstanding debentures (together, the “Pactiv Debentures”): Maturity Date Interest Payment Dates 7.950 % Debentures due 2025 December 15, 2025 June 15 and December 15 8.375 % Debentures due 2027 April 15, 2027 April 15 and October 15 The effective interest rates of our debt obligations under the Pactiv Debentures are not materially different from the contractual interest rates. The Pactiv Debentures are not guaranteed and are unsecured. The indentures governing the Pactiv Debentures contain a negative pledge clause limiting the ability of Pactiv LLC, subject to certain exceptions, to (i) incur or guarantee debt that is secured by liens on “principal manufacturing properties” (as such term is defined in the indentures governing the Pactiv Debentures) or on the capital stock or debt of Pactiv LLC and (ii) sell and then take an immediate lease back of such principal manufacturing property. The 8.375 % Debentures due 2027 may be redeemed at any time at our option, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100 % of the principal amount thereof plus a make-whole premium, if any, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of the redemption.

All derivatives represent Level 2 financial assets and liabilities. Our derivatives are valued using an income approach based on the observable market index prices less the contract rate multiplied by the notional amount or based on pricing models that rely on market observable inputs such as commodity prices, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. Our calculation of the fair value of these financial instruments takes into consideration the risk of non-performance, including counterparty credit risk. The majority of our derivative contracts do not have a legal right of set-off. We manage the credit risk in connection with our derivatives by limiting the amount of exposure with each counterparty and monitoring the financial condition of our counterparties. During the first quarter of 2024, we began entering into foreign currency exchange forward contracts to reduce our risk from exchange rate fluctuations associated with purchases denominated in a foreign currency. We are exposed to market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates due to the global nature of our operations and certain commodity risks. In order to manage these risks, we hedge portions of our forecasted purchases expected to occur within the next twelve months that are denominated in non-functional currencies, with foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges. As of September 30, 2024 , we had contracts with U.S. dollar equivalent notional amounts of $ 8 million to exchange the Mexican peso. We believe it is probable that all forecasted cash flow transactions will occur. During the fourth quarter of 2022, we entered into derivative financial instruments with several large financial institutions which swapped the LIBO rate for a weighted average fixed rate of 4.120 % for an aggregate notional amount of $ 1,000 million to hedge a portion of the interest rate exposure resulting from our U.S. term loans. These instruments are classified as cash flow hedges and mature in October 2025. In April 2023, we amended our interest rate swap agreements to replace the interest rate benchmark from LIBOR to SOFR , effective for swap payments for the period commencing April 28, 2023. Other than the foregoing, the material terms of the interest rate swap agreements remain unchanged, including t he weighted average fixed rate of 4.120 %, and our election to use certain practical expedients under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 848: Reference Rate Reform resulted in no material impacts on our condensed consolidated financial statements. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 , we recognized an unrealized gain of $ 1 million within other comprehensive (loss) income for our foreign currency exchange forward contracts. There was no unrealized gain or loss during the three months ended September 30, 2024. As of September 30, 2024 , we expected to reclassify $ 1 million of gains, net of tax, from accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income ( “ AOCL”) to earnings over the next twelve months. The actual amount that will be reclassified to future earnings may vary from this amount as a result of changes in market conditions. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 , we recognized realized gains of $ 3 million, $ 9 million, $ 3 million and $ 6 million, respectively, within interest expense, net and an unrealized loss of $ 9 million, an unrealized gain of $ 5 million, an unrealized gain of $ 8 million and an unrealized gain of $ 22 million, respectively, within other comprehensive (loss) income for our interest rate derivatives. As of September 30, 2024, we expected to reclassify $ 3 million of losses, net of tax, from AOCL to earnings over the next twelve months. The actual amount that will be reclassified to future earnings may vary from this amount as a result of changes in market conditions. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 , we recognized unrealized gains of $ 1 million and $ 3 million, respectively, in cost of sales, for our commodity swap contracts. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we recognized an unrealized gain of $ 1 million in cost of sales, for our commodity swap contracts. There was no unrealized gain or loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Commitments and Contingencies	Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies We are from time to time party to litigation, legal proceedings and tax examinations arising from our operations. Most of these matters involve allegations of damages against us relating to employment matters, personal injury and commercial or contractual disputes. We are also involved in various administrative and other proceedings relating to environmental matters that arise in the normal course of business, and we may become involved in similar matters in the future. We record estimates for claims and proceedings that constitute a present obligation when it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of such obligation can be made. While it is not possible to predict the outcome of any of these matters, based on our assessment of the facts and circumstances, we do not believe any of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our balance sheet, results of operations or cash flows. However, actual outcomes may differ from those expected and could have a material effect on our balance sheet, results of operations or cash flows in a future period. Except for amounts provided, there were no legal proceedings pending other than those for which we have determined that the possibility of a material outflow is remote. Indemnities As part of the agreements for the sale of various businesses, we have provided certain warranties and indemnities to the respective purchasers as set out in the respective sale agreements. These warranties and indemnities are subject to various terms and conditions affecting the duration and total amount of the indemnities. Any claims pursuant to these warranties and indemnities, if successful, could have a material effect on our balance sheet, results of operations or cash flows.

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we recognized a tax expense of $ 22 million on income from continuing operations before tax of $ 50 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recognized a tax benefit of $ 5 million on a loss from continuing operations before tax of $ 249 million. The effective tax rates for the aforementioned periods were driven primarily by the inability to recognize a tax benefit on all interest expense. We are under audit by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and other taxing authorities. The IRS is currently auditing our U.S. income tax returns for 2016-2017. As of September 30, 2024, we have not received any proposed adjustments from taxing authorities that would be material. Although the ultimate timing is uncertain, it is reasonably possible that a reduction of up to $ 9 million of unrecognized tax benefits could occur within the next twelve months due to changes in audit status, settlements of tax assessments and other events.

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
Equity Based Compensation	Note 15. Equity Based Compensation The Pactiv Evergreen Inc. Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan enables us to grant stock or other equity based compensation awards to our employees (including our senior management), directors and consultants. Equity based compensation costs were $ 6 million , $ 19 million , $ 9 million and $ 24 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, substantially all of which was recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses. Restricted Stock Units During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 , we granted restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to certain members of management and certain members of our Board of Directors. These RSUs require future service to be provided and generally vest in annual installments over a period of three years beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date. During the vesting period, the RSUs carry dividend-equivalent rights, but the RSUs do not have voting rights. The RSUs and any related dividend-equivalent rights are forfeited if the holder is no longer a service provider on the vesting date, unless the holder satisfies certain retirement-eligibility criteria. The following table summarizes RSU activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2024: (In thousands, except per share amounts) Number of Weighted Non-vested, at January 1 2,707 $ 10.06 Granted (1) 1,674 12.94 Forfeited ( 156 ) 11.91 Vested ( 1,100 ) 11.99 Non-vested, at September 30 3,125 $ 10.83 (1) Included 72 thousand shares reserved for issuance upon the settlement of dividend-equivalent rights carried by the reported RSUs concurrently with the settlement of such RSUs for shares. Unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested RSUs as of September 30, 2024 was $ 12 million , which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.1 years. The total vest date fair value of shares that vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $ 13 million . Performance Share Units During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 , we granted performance share units (“PSUs”), which vest on the third anniversary of the grant date, to certain members of management. Based on the achievement of a company performance target during a performance period set by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors, upon vesting, the PSUs are exchanged for a number of shares of common stock equal to the number of PSUs multiplied by a factor between 0 % and 200 %. We use our stock price on the grant date to estimate the fair value of our PSUs. We adjust the expense based on the likelihood of future achievement of performance metrics. If the threshold performance target associated with the PSU award is not achieved, the award is forfeited. During the vesting period, the PSUs carry dividend-equivalent rights, but the PSUs do not have voting rights. The PSUs and any related dividend-equivalent rights are forfeited if the holder is no longer a service provider on the vesting date, unless the holder satisfies certain retirement-eligibility criteria. The following table summarizes PSU activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2024: (In thousands, except per share amounts) Number of Weighted Non-vested, at January 1 2,846 $ 9.52 Granted (1) 915 12.90 Forfeited ( 421 ) 9.59 Non-vested, at September 30 3,340 $ 10.44 (1) Included 117 thousand shares reserved for issuance upon the settlement of dividend-equivalent rights carried by the reported PSUs concurrently with the settlement of such PSUs for shares. Unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested PSUs as of September 30, 2024 was $ 14 million , which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.8 years.

Segment Information

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Information	Note 17. Segment Information As of September 30, 2024 , we had two reportable segments: Foodservice and Food and Beverage Merchandising. These reportable segments reflect our operating structure and the manner in which our CODM, who is our President and Chief Executive Officer, assesses information for decision-making purposes. The key factors used to identify these reportable segments are the organization of our internal operations and the nature of our products. This reflects how our CODM monitors performance, allocates capital and makes strategic and operational decisions. Our reportable segments are described as follows: Foodservice - Manufactures a broad range of products that enable consumers to eat and drink where they want and when they want with convenience. Foodservice manufactures food containers, drinkware (hot and cold cups and lids), tableware, serviceware and other products which make eating on-the-go more enjoyable and easy to do. Food and Beverage Merchandising - Manufactures products that protect and attractively display food and beverages while preserving freshness. Food and Beverage Merchandising products include cartons for fresh refrigerated beverage products, primarily serving dairy (including plant-based, organic and specialties), juice and other specialty beverage end-markets, clear rigid-display containers, containers for prepared and ready-to-eat food, trays for meat and poultry and egg cartons. It also produces fiber-based liquid packaging board for its internal requirements and to sell to other fresh beverage carton manufacturers. Prior to June 2023, it also produced a range of paper-based products which it sold to paper and packaging converters. Other/Unallocated - We previously had other operating segments that did not meet the threshold for presentation as a reportable segment. These operating segments comprised the remaining components of our former closures businesses, which generated revenue from the sale of caps and closures, and are presented as “Other”. As of March 31, 2023, we had disposed of all of the remaining components of our former closures businesses. Unallocated includes corporate costs, primarily relating to general and administrative functions such as finance, tax and legal and the effects of the PPPE. Information by Segment We present reportable segment Adjusted EBITDA as this is the financial measure by which management and our CODM allocate resources and analyze the performance of our reportable segments. A segment’s Adjusted EBITDA represents its earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization and is further adjusted to exclude certain items, including but not limited to restructuring, asset impairment and other related charges, gains or losses on the sale of businesses and noncurrent assets, non-cash pension income or expense, unrealized gains or losses on derivatives, foreign exchange gains or losses on cash and gains or losses on certain legal settlements.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Reclassifications	Reclassifications We made reclassifications to certain previously reported financial information to conform to our current period presentation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements We reviewed all recently issued accounting pronouncements and, except for the items below, concluded that they were either not applicable or not expected to have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07 Segment Reporting - Improving Reportable Segment Disclosures (Topic 280). The ASU is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant expenses. The ASU requires disclosures to include significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”), a description of other segment items by reportable segment and, if necessary, any additional measures of a segment’s profit or loss used by the CODM when deciding how to allocate resources. The ASU also requires all annual disclosures currently required by Topic 280 to be included in interim periods. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments should be applied on a retrospective basis to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Although we are still assessing, we expect the adoption of this ASU to result in additional disclosure of certain segment expenses in the footnotes to our consolidated financial statements. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 Income Taxes - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740) requiring enhanced income tax disclosures. The ASU requires the disclosure of specific categories and disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation table. The ASU also requires disclosure of disaggregated information related to income taxes paid, income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit, and income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations. The requirements of the ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. We are currently assessing the impact of the ASU on our related disclosures. In March 2024, the SEC adopted final rules under SEC Release No. 33-11275, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors, which, as adopted, require registrants to include certain climate-related information in their annual reports and registration statements. The rules require, among other matters, information about climate-related risks that are reasonably likely to have a material impact on a registrant’s business, results of operations or financial condition. The required information about climate-related risks also includes disclosure of a registrant’s greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, the rules would require registrants to include certain climate-related financial disclosures in their audited financial statements. As adopted, these disclosure requirements would be phased in over several years beginning with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2026. However, while the SEC has adopted these rules, the rules have been stayed and are subject to pending legal and political challenges causing significant uncertainty regarding when and how they will ultimately apply to us. We are currently assessing the impact of these rules on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
