Amcor plc, a global leader in responsible packaging solutions, confirms the 1-for-5 reverse stock split approved by shareholders on November 6, 2025. The company will file an amendment to its memorandum of association after trading closes on January 14, 2026, with split-adjusted ordinary shares beginning trade on the New York Stock Exchange under symbol AMCR on January 15, 2026. This consolidation reduces outstanding shares from approximately 2.3 billion to 461 million, while increasing the par value to $0.05 per share and proportionately adjusting authorized shares.
CHESS Depositary Interests on the Australian Stock Exchange will consolidate similarly, maintaining one CDI per ordinary share. No fractional shares issue; eligible shareholders receive cash payments instead. Unvested equity awards adjust proportionately, and fiscal 2026 Q2 metrics report on a split-adjusted basis in early February. Amcor directs investors to its September 23, 2025, SEC proxy statement and investor relations site for details.
