1.b. Last Insights on OI

O-I Glass' recent performance was negatively impacted by several factors. Despite the company's strong Q3 2025 earnings report, which included a beat on revenue and earnings estimates, and a significant increase in margins, there were no apparent negative drivers. However, the company's prior year period reported a loss, making the current period's performance seem more favorable by comparison. Additionally, while O-I Glass' "Fit to Win" program is driving substantial cost reductions, with a target of $650 million in savings by 2027, no new negative developments were reported. O-I Glass was rated a "Strong Buy" by an analyst.

2. O-I Glass Beats Expectations with Strong Q3 Earnings

O-I Glass reported third-quarter adjusted earnings of $0.48 per share, exceeding last year's performance and initial plans, with the top line remaining stable at approximately $1.7 billion. Shipments in tons declined by 5%, but excluding factors such as a major capital project commissioning and inventory correction, shipments were down about 2%. The company's adjusted earnings per share came in higher than the estimated $0.44. The execution of strategic initiatives led to a higher quality of revenue, with segment operating profit rising over 60% year-over-year and margins up 570 basis points.

📋 Highlights
  • Adjusted Earnings Growth:: Q3 2025 adjusted earnings of $0.48/share, up from prior results and plans, with 2025 full-year guidance raised to $1.55–$1.65/share (nearly double 2024’s $0.85/share).
  • Margin Expansion:: Segment operating profit surged >60% YoY, margins rose 570 bps, driven by the Fit to Win program, which delivered $220M YTD savings and $275M–$300M 2025 savings.
  • Revenue Quality Shift:: Non-alcoholic beverages, food, and RTDs drove revenue growth, offsetting declines in beer and wine, with a 5% shipment decline (2% net after excluding inventory corrections).
  • Capacity Optimization:: 13% capacity cut (8% completed), targeting $140M–$150M in charges by 2026, with $150M energy contract savings expected in 2026 to boost earnings.

Revenue Mix and Pricing

Revenue grew in non-alcoholic beverages, food, and RTDs, while beer and wine experienced declines. The company is capturing new product launches, with its funnel up 8-10% and new products making up 10% of its volume. O-I is simplifying its plants, making them more flexible, and improving its new product development organization, which will launch in January and is expected to slash time to market by 50%. As Gordon Hardie noted, the company is focused on increasing profitability and returns on its existing volumes, shedding unprofitable volume, and generating higher cash flow.

Fit to Win Program Delivering Results

The Fit to Win program contributed $75 million in the third quarter and $220 million year-to-date, with expected 2025 savings ranging from $275 million to $300 million. This program is delivering results faster than planned, strengthening competitiveness, and enabling durable profit improvement. The company has raised its full-year 2025 guidance, expecting adjusted earnings in the range of $1.55 to $1.65 per share, nearly double the 2024 results.

Valuation and Outlook

With a P/E Ratio of -14.31 and an EV/EBITDA of -67.37, the market is pricing in significant challenges for the company. However, the company's strong Q3 earnings and raised guidance suggest that it is on track to deliver improved profitability. Analysts estimate next year's revenue growth at 2.0%, which is modest but in line with the company's expectations. The company's focus on improving profitability, reducing costs, and increasing cash flow is expected to drive long-term growth.

Cash Flow and Debt

The company's cash performance is strong, and it is improving the quality of its revenue, with a focus on sustainability and profitability. O-I paid $15 million as part of a $25 million environmental liability settlement, but its free cash flow yield is still attractive at 8.56%. The company's net debt to EBITDA ratio is -47.01, indicating a strong ability to service its debt.
