BERY’s Zacks Rank and Price Performance

Berry Global is benefiting from strength in the Consumer Packaging North America segment. Investments in the latest equipment technologies, advantaged film development and design for circularity also bode well. Cost-reduction actions, including structural plant closures and labor management, are expected to aid the margin performance.

BERY currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). In the year-to-date period, the company’s shares have gained 10.5% compared with the industry’s 23.2% growth.

It is experiencing weakness in its Consumer Packaging International unit due to reduced selling prices arising from the pass-through of lower resin prices. Softness in North American transportation and shrink film markets are affecting the Flexibles unit’s performance.
