Zurich, Switzerland-based Amcor plc (AMCR) develops, produces, and sells packaging products in Europe, North America, Latin America, Africa, and the Indo-Pacific regions. With a market cap of over $14.2 billion, Amcor operates through the Flexibles and Rigid Packaging segments. The packaging giant is expected to announce its fourth-quarter results on Thursday, Aug. 21.

Ahead of the event, analysts expect AMCR to deliver a profit of $0.21 per share, flat as the $0.21 per share reported in the year-ago quarter. Meanwhile, the company has matched the Street’s bottom-line estimates in each of the past four quarters.

For the full fiscal 2025, analysts expect AMCR’s EPS to come in at $0.73 per share, up 4.3% from $0.70 reported in fiscal 2024. In fiscal 2026, its earnings are expected to surge 12.3% year-over-year to $0.82 per share.

AMCR stock prices have dipped 3.2% over the past 52 weeks, notably underperforming the S&P 500 Index’s ($SPX) 17.3% surge and the Industrial Select Sector SPDR Fund’s (XLI) 24.6% returns during the same time frame.

Amcor’s stock prices dropped 1.3% in the trading session following the release of its mixed Q3 results on Apr. 30. Due to unfavorable macro conditions and currency headwinds, the company’s topline for the quarter dropped 2.3% year-over-year to $3.3 billion, missing the consensus estimates by a significant 4.4%. Meanwhile, the company’s non-GAAP margins experienced a slight improvement, leading to a modest 1.1% uptick in adjusted EPS to $0.18, meeting analysts’ expectations.

Nevertheless, analysts remain optimistic about the stock’s longer-term prospects. AMCR holds a consensus “Strong Buy” rating overall. Of the 12 analysts covering the stock, opinions include eight “Strong Buys,” one “Moderate Buy,” and three “Holds.” Its mean price target of $11.50 suggests a 17.8% upside potential from current price levels.
