GEF Greif Inc

Greif, Inc. (NYSE: GEF, GEF.B), has issued a revised earnings release to correct an error in the previously issued press release titled “Greif Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2024 Results” (the “Prior Earnings Release”) issued on December 4, 2024 at 04:01 PM ET.

In the Prior Earnings Release, the fourth quarter 2024 net income, excluding the impact of adjustments, incorrectly presented a $16.0 million income tax expense related to “(gain) loss on disposal of businesses, net.” This resulted in stating net income, excluding the impact of adjustments, for the period of $49.6 million and diluted Class A earnings per share, excluding the impact of adjustments, for the period of $0.85. The corrected net income, excluding the impact of adjustments, for the period is $65.5 million, and the corrected diluted Class A earnings per share, excluding the impact of adjustments, for the period is $1.13.

A revised earnings release was issued on December 4, 2024 at 10:59 PM ET reflecting these corrected amounts and corresponding changes in the text and to various financial schedules presented in the Prior Earnings Release. The reconciliations of net income, excluding the impact of adjustments, to net income and of diluted Class A earnings per share, excluding the impact of adjustments, to diluted Class A earnings per share, which are the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, respectively, are included in the financial schedules that are a part of the revised earnings release.
