Amcor CEO Ron Delia said: “Amcor delivered a strong first quarter highlighted by solid operating leverage with 3% organic sales growth driving a 10% increase in adjusted earnings per share (EPS) on a comparable constant currency basis.
“The result demonstrates the relative stability of our end market exposures, our relentless focus on recovering higher raw material costs and general inflation, and our proactive approach to driving costs out of the business.

For FY23, Amcor anticipates its full-year adjusted EPS to be between $0.77 and $0.81 on a reported basis and 3-8% on a comparable constant currency basis.
