Packaging Corporation of America (PKG) Q2 2026 Earnings Call Transcript
PKG's Q2 earnings beat estimates as record corrugated shipments and the Greif acquisition boost volumes despite pricing pressure and higher costs.
Packaging Corporation of America remains a strong operator, but shares are overvalued at 20x earnings amid persistent cost headwinds. PKG's Q2 saw record shipment volumes and pricing actions, yet margin gains are offset by rising freight, electricity, and input costs. Despite a robust balance sheet and stable 2.6% dividend, PKG's premium valuation is unjustified given limited profit acceleration prospects.
