Berry Global Reiterates Commitment to Value Creation; Provides Statement Regarding Ancora Holdings Group LLC Letter

Berry Global Group, Inc. (NYSE: BERY) today issued the following statement regarding the letter publicly released by Ancora Holdings Group LLC (“Ancora”):

Berry Global’s Board of Directors and management team are committed to acting in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders, and our regular engagement with investors supports our goal of enhancing value. While it is the Company’s policy not to comment on interactions with specific shareholders, it is important to note that members of Berry’s management team have held several discussions with representatives of Ancora over the past year to better understand their views.

We have continued to focus on driving consistent and sustainable long-term growth through strategic portfolio management and a flexible capital allocation strategy while also working diligently to offset the challenges created by COVID, inflation, labor and supply chains. We have successfully achieved our targets over the past several years and expect to drive our third consecutive year of positive organic growth in fiscal 2022.

We continue to build and maintain our world-class, low-cost, manufacturing base, with an emphasis on investment in key growth markets and regions. Our robust, stable and dependable cash flow enables us to return capital to shareholders at favorable terms, while continuing to execute a flexible capital allocation strategy focused on additional opportunistic share repurchases, the paydown of debt and strategic acquisitions or value-enhancing strategic investments.

The Berry Board and management team remain committed to constructive engagement with all shareholders and are always open-minded to ideas that may enhance shareholder value.
