Ranpak Holdings Corp. Reports Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Globe and Mail

05-08-2025

Ranpak Holdings Corp (NYSE: PACK) ('Ranpak' or 'the Company'), a leading provider of environmentally sustainable, systems-based, product protection and end-of-line automation solutions for e-commerce and industrial supply chains, today reported its second quarter 2025 financial results.
Omar Asali, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, 'I am pleased to share we achieved our 8 th quarter in a row of volume growth in a challenging environment, driven by our deepening relationships with Enterprise customers in North America where we continue to make strong inroads in Protective and Automation leading me to be more optimistic for the remainder of the year. Global paper volumes increased 5.2% in the quarter and net revenue increased 6.8% year over year, or 3.8% on a constant currency basis, driven by continued strength within North American e-commerce and includes a $1.2 million non-cash reduction for warrants. Uncertainty across the globe weighed on our exclusive distribution channel in the second quarter leading to a less robust May and June globally. In general, industrial activity continues to be subdued but we did see positive volume growth in Cushioning in the quarter in an encouraging sign of a more balanced growth profile outlook among our product lines and improved profitability.
AEBITDA declined 15.8%, or 18.4% on a constant currency basis year over year, driven by lower volumes in Europe and APAC and higher production costs in North America and includes a $1.2 million non-cash reduction for warrants. The margin pressures we experienced in the first quarter persisted in the second quarter though we expect our cost reduction and margin improvement initiatives are set to take hold in Q3, leading to optimism for an improved financial profile in the second half of the year. In addition to increased pricing in Q2, we executed on our cost reduction initiatives by reducing headcount, optimizing freight and logistics costs, as well as securing lower cost warehouse space reducing our use of third party storage we relied on in the first half of the year. We expect these actions among others will enable us to achieve a three to five gross margin point improvement in North America in the second half of the year.
Our Automation backlog is robust for the second half and we are having good success expanding with Enterprise customers in North America. We expect to generate $40 - $45 million in Automation net revenue for 2025, with the vast majority of the second half already in backlog, implying substantial growth in the second half and driving meaningful improvement in our overall financial profile as it has been a $5 million drag on AEBITDA to start the year. With the momentum I see in the business, I believe we have a clear path to scale Automation which we expect will have a significant impact on our financial profile.
We believe we have laid the groundwork for strong and profitable growth going forward. Our differentiated solutions and strong customer execution have resulted in us forming a strategic and economic relationship with one of the largest and most sophisticated players in the world when it comes to protective packaging and warehouse Automation. I can't think of a greater vote of confidence and testament to the way we have innovated here at Ranpak and delivered for customers over the past number of years. I believe what we are building here at Ranpak is special and view 2025 as the turning point where Ranpak established itself as a leading player in both Protective and Automation.'
Outlook for Remainder of 2025
Given the challenging start to the year and movements in currency, we are updating our forward-looking guidance to reflect the latest operating environment. At a current exchange rate of 1 Euro to 1.15 USD, we are forecasting second half 2025 net revenue of $216 - $230 million and AEBITDA of $44.5 - $54.5 million, reflecting an estimated $4 million recognition of warrant expense over that period. Using year to date actual results and the midpoint of the remaining year guidance range this implies total 2025 net revenue of $406.5 million and AEBITDA of $83.3 million. This guidance reflects the expectation of a non-cash net revenue and AEBITDA reduction of between $4 million and $6 million in 2025 related to the recognition of warrant expense. While we have encountered headwinds to start the year, we believe Ranpak is well positioned to weather the current environment due to the diversity of our operations and global footprint as well as the value-added solutions we provide to businesses across the world. We have cemented partnerships this year that we believe position Ranpak well for strong growth and increased scale in years to come.
Second Quarter 2025 Highlights
Net revenue increased 6.8% (including a $1.2 million, or 1.4%, non-cash reduction from warrants) and increased 3.8% on a constant currency basis
Net loss of $7.5 million compared to net income of $5.5 million for the prior year period
AEBITDA (1) of $16.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 is down 15.8% and down 18.4% on a constant currency basis
Packaging systems placement increased 2.7% year over year, to approximately 145.0 thousand machines as of June 30, 2025
Net revenue for the second quarter of 2025 was $92.3 million compared to $86.4 million for the second quarter of 2024, an increase of $5.9 million or 6.8% (3.8% on a constant currency basis) and includes a reduction of $1.2 million to void-fill net revenue for the provision for common stock warrants. Net revenue was positively impacted by increases in cushioning, void-fill, and other net revenue, partially offset by a decrease in wrapping. Cushioning increased $1.8 million, or 5.1%, to $36.8 million from $35.0 million; void-fill increased $3.4 million, or 9.0%, to $41.1 million from $37.7 million; wrapping decreased $1.1 million, or 13.1%, to $7.3 million from $8.4 million; and other net revenue increased $1.8 million, or 32.1% to $7.1 million from $5.3 million for the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024. Other net revenue includes automated box sizing equipment and non-paper revenue from packaging systems installed in the field, such as systems accessories.
The increase in net revenue for the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024 is quantified by an increase in the volume of sales of our paper consumable products of approximately 5.2%, a 1.8% increase in the sales of automated box sizing equipment, and a 3.0% increase from foreign currency fluctuations, partially offset by a 1.9% decrease in the price or mix of our paper consumable products and a 1.3% decrease from the provision for common stock warrants.

Non-GAAP Measures
Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ('EBITDA') and Adjusted EBITDA ('AEBITDA')
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We also present Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ('EBITDA') and adjusted EBITDA ('AEBITDA'), which are non-GAAP financial measures, because they are key measures used by our management and board of directors to understand and evaluate our operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget and to develop short- and long-term operational plans. In particular, the exclusion of certain expenses in calculating EBITDA and AEBITDA can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our primary business operations. We believe that EBITDA and AEBITDA provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors.
EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that we calculate as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude: benefit from (provision for) income taxes; interest expense; and depreciation and amortization.
AEBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that we calculate as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude: benefit from (provision for) income taxes; interest expense; depreciation and amortization; stock-based compensation expense; foreign currency (gain) loss; amortization of cloud-based software implementation costs; and, in certain periods, other income and expense items.
We reconcile this data to our U.S. GAAP data for the same periods presented.
Constant Currency
We operate globally, and a substantial portion of our net revenue and operations is denominated in foreign currencies, primarily the Euro. We calculate the year over-year impact of foreign currency movements using prior period foreign currency rates applied to current year results. These 'constant currency' change amounts are non-GAAP measures and are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, constant currency change measures are not based on any established set of accounting rules or principles.
In calculating the Constant Currency (Non-GAAP) % Change, the current year is translated at the average exchange rate for the comparable prior year period, when comparing the current year to the prior year. We believe that our Constant Currency (Non-GAAP) % Change presentation provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors.
Cautionary Notice Regarding Non-GAAP Measures
Non-GAAP measures, such as EBITDA, AEBITDA, and constant currency change, have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. In particular, non-GAAP financial measures should not be viewed as substitutes for, or superior to, net income (loss) prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP as a measure of profitability or liquidity. Some of these limitations are:
although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and AEBITDA do not reflect all cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;
EBITDA and AEBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
EBITDA and AEBITDA do not reflect the impact of the recording or release of valuation allowances or tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us;
AEBITDA does not consider the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation, and in certain periods, other income and expense items, such as restructuring and integration costs;
constant currency change measures exclude the foreign currency exchange rate impact on our foreign operations; and
other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate EBITDA, AEBITDA, and constant currency change differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures.
