They bring complementary capabilities, including strong innovation, specialized tooling, design and multi-component assembly. Berry's culture is closely aligned to ours and focused on safety excellence, customer passion, sustainability and innovation. Together, we will help global and local customers grow faster and operate more efficiently, with a more complete and more sustainable product offering, supported by stronger innovation capabilities, global scale and supply chain flexibility.

Our combined company will service customers in over 140 countries through ~400 production facilities, bringing global capabilities to local customers and providing local access to global brands. We will ensure supply chain resilience in a dynamic world, support customers in accessing broader growth opportunities and address specific regional needs.

We will also create the innovation partner of choice developing the most sustainable packaging solutions, expanding choice for customers and consumers by allocating more resources to critical areas and using our combined expertise and technologies to solve bigger challenges. Our innovation capabilities will be underpinned by combined annual R&D investment of $180 million per annum, ~1,500 R&D professionals, 10 innovation centers worldwide and 7,000+ patents, registered designs and trademarks. Together, we will deliver breakthrough solutions across a range of materials and formats to solve your toughest technical challenges without compromising functionality, offering a wider range of more sustainable solutions which drive circularity, increase use of alternative materials and lower carbon footprint.

In short, together with Berry, we will be able to develop solutions that neither company could on its own, and we are excited about the opportunities to help you achieve your sustainability goals.

Until the transaction is completed, which we are targeting in the middle of calendar year 2025, subject to customary closing conditions, Amcor and Berry will continue to operate as separate, independent companies. Both now and after the completion of the combination, you can expect to work with us as you always have.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to [your usual Amcor contact // INSERT].

We value our relationship and look forward to our continued success together.
