Silgan's stock soared 5.23% intraday on Wednesday, following the release of its first-quarter 2026 financial results.
The rigid packaging supplier reported adjusted earnings per share of $0.78, beating the consensus estimate of $0.75. Revenue for the quarter was $1.56 billion, also surpassing expectations of $1.51 billion and representing a 6% year-over-year increase.
The company raised its full-year 2026 adjusted EPS guidance to a range of $3.73 to $3.93, up from its previous outlook of $3.70 to $3.90. For the second quarter, Silgan expects adjusted EPS between $0.92 and $1.02, compared with a consensus estimate of $0.96. Performance was driven by double-digit volume growth in dispensing products for the fragrance and beauty markets and in metal containers for pet food, alongside the contractual pass-through of higher raw material costs.
