Investor Conference Call at 9:00 a.m. ET on July 24, 2024

Silgan Holdings Inc. (NYSE: SLGN), a leading supplier of sustainable rigid packaging solutions for the world's essential consumer goods products, announced today that it has entered into a sale and purchase agreement to acquire Weener Plastics Holdings B.V., a leading producer of differentiated dispensing solutions for personal care, food and healthcare products for an enterprise value of €838 million. Weener operates a global network of 19 facilities predominantly in Europe and the Americas, with approximately 4,000 employees and proprietary manufacturing technologies including significant clean room capabilities.

“The proposed acquisition of Weener represents the continuation of our strategy to expand our global Dispensing and Specialty Closures franchise and a clear example of the effectiveness of our disciplined capital allocation model to create value for our shareholders,” said Adam Greenlee, President and CEO. “The combination of Weener’s innovative product offering, advanced manufacturing technologies and efficient operating footprint, strong customer relationships and presence in growing consumer markets, including personal and health care, complements our existing dispensing business well. As with prior acquisitions in Dispensing and Specialty Closures, Weener has established its market position through innovation, cost leadership and an intense focus on partnering with their customers to meet demanding market requirements,” continued Mr. Greenlee. “As the Silgan portfolio continues to evolve, we believe we are well positioned to succeed in the market as the dispensing partner of choice by maintaining our relentless focus on being the best at what we do and meeting the unique needs of our customers,” concluded Mr. Greenlee.

For the twelve months ended May 31, 2024, Weener generated sales of approximately €450 million and adjusted EBITDA of €96 million. Silgan expects to realize operational cost synergies of approximately €20 million within 18 months following the closing of the proposed acquisition. These synergies are expected to be achieved through a combination of procurement savings, manufacturing efficiencies and other operational synergies. The acquisition is expected to be accretive to adjusted earnings per share in 2025.

The proposed acquisition is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2024 and is subject to applicable regulatory approvals and certain other customary conditions. The purchase price for this proposed acquisition is subject to adjustments set forth in the purchase agreement. Silgan expects to fund the purchase price for this proposed acquisition with a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under its senior secured credit facility.
