three months then ended is unaudited)
Note 1. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Silgan Holdings Inc., or Silgan, have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full year.
The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2024 has been derived from our audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
You should read the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Note 3. Rationalization Charges
We continually evaluate cost reduction opportunities across each of our segments, including rationalizations of our existing facilities through plant closings and downsizings. We use a disciplined approach to identify opportunities that generate attractive cash returns. Rationalization charges by segment for the three months ended March 31 were as follows:

Non-cash asset write-downs were the result of comparing the carrying value of certain facilities and production related equipment to their fair value using estimated future discounted cash flows, a Level 3 fair value measurement (see Note 7 for information regarding a Level 3 fair value measurement).
Rationalization reserves as of March 31, 2025 were recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as accrued liabilities of $5.7 million and other liabilities of $25.2 million. Excluding the impact of our withdrawal from the Central States, Southeast and Southwest Areas Pension Plan, or the Central States Pension Plan, in 2019, remaining expenses and cash expenditures for our rationalization plans are expected to be $15.9 million and $20.3 million, respectively. Remaining expenses for the accretion of interest for the withdrawal liability related to the Central States Pension Plan are expected to average approximately $0.8 million per year and be recognized annually through 2040, and remaining cash expenditures for the withdrawal liability related to the Central States Pension Plan are expected to be approximately $2.6 million annually through 2040.

Note 7. Financial Instruments
The financial instruments recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets include cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, debt obligations and swap agreements. Due to their short-term maturity, the carrying amounts of trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable approximate their fair market values. The following table summarizes the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of our other financial instruments at March 31, 2025:
| Carrying Amount | Fair Value | ||||||||||

| Liabilities: | |||||||||||

| 2¼% Senior Notes | |||||||||||
Fair Value Measurements
GAAP defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). GAAP classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into a hierarchy consisting of three levels. Level 1 inputs represent unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs represent unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability. Level 3 inputs represent unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value
The financial assets and liabilities that were measured on a recurring basis at March 31, 2025 consisted of our cash and cash equivalents and derivative instruments. We measured the fair value of cash and cash equivalents using Level 1 inputs. We measured the fair value of our derivative instruments using the income approach. The fair value of our derivative instruments reflects the estimated amounts that we would pay or receive based on the present value of the expected cash flows derived from market interest rates and prices. As such, these derivative instruments were classified within Level 2.
Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value
Our bank debt, 4⅛% Senior Notes, 2¼% Senior Notes and 1.4 % Senior Secured Notes were recorded at historical amounts in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, as we have not elected to measure them at fair value. We measured the fair value of our variable rate bank debt using the market approach based on Level 2 inputs. Fair values of the 4⅛% Senior Notes, 2¼% Senior Notes and 1.4 % Senior Secured Notes were estimated based on quoted market prices, a Level 1 input.
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
Our derivative financial instruments were recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their fair values. Changes in fair values of derivatives are recorded in each period in earnings or comprehensive income, depending on whether a derivative is designated as part of a hedge transaction and, if it is, the type of hedge transaction.
We utilize certain derivative financial instruments to manage a portion of our interest rate and natural gas cost exposures. We generally limit our use of derivative financial instruments to interest rate and natural gas swap agreements. We do not engage in

trading or other speculative uses of these financial instruments. For a financial instrument to qualify as a hedge, we must be exposed to interest rate or price risk, and the financial instrument must reduce the exposure and be designated as a hedge. Financial instruments qualifying for hedge accounting must maintain a high correlation between the hedging instrument and the item being hedged, both at inception and throughout the hedged period.
We also utilize certain internal hedging strategies to minimize our foreign currency exchange rate risk. Net investment hedges that qualify for hedge accounting result in the recognition of foreign currency gains or losses, net of tax, in accumulated other comprehensive loss.
Interest Rate Swap Agreements
As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had outstanding $300 3.90 685.0 2.43
Natural Gas Swap Agreements
We have entered into natural gas swap agreements to manage a portion of our exposure to fluctuations in natural gas prices. The difference between amounts to be paid or received on our natural gas swap agreements is recorded in cost of goods sold in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and was not significant for the three months ended March 31, 2025. These agreements are with a financial institution which is expected to fully perform under the terms thereof. The total fair value of our natural gas swap agreements in effect at March 31, 2025 was not significant.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
In an effort to minimize our foreign currency exchange rate risk, we have financed acquisitions of foreign operations primarily with borrowings denominated in Euros. In addition, where available, we have borrowed funds in local currency or implemented certain internal hedging strategies to minimize our foreign currency exchange rate risk related to foreign operations, including net investment hedges related to the Euro term loans under the Credit Agreement which are Euro denominated. Foreign currency (losses) related to our net investment hedges included in accumulated other comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were $(45.0 ) million.

Note 8. Commitments and Contingencies
We are a party to other legal proceedings, contract disputes and claims arising in the ordinary course of our business. We are not a party to, and none of our properties are subject to, any pending legal proceedings which could have a material adverse effect on our business or financial condition.
Note 9. Supply Chain Finance Program
We have a supply chain finance (“SCF”) program with a major global financial institution. Under this SCF program, a qualifying supplier may elect, but is not obligated, to sell its receivables from us to such financial institution. Once a qualifying supplier elects to participate in this SCF program, all of our payments to the participating supplier are paid to such financial institution in this SCF program on the invoice due date under our agreement with such supplier, regardless of whether the individual invoice was sold by the supplier to such financial institution. We may terminate our agreement with the financial institution upon at least 30 days’ notice, and the financial institution may terminate our agreement upon at least 10 days’ notice. Additionally, suppliers who elect to participate in this SCF program may terminate their participation upon at least 30 days’ notice. The suppliers' invoices sold under this SCF program can be outstanding up to 210 days from the invoice date. Suppliers’ invoices included in this SCF program were $262.9 million, $252.6 million and $303.7 million at March 31, 2025 and 2024 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and were included in in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 12. Treasury Stock
On March 4, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase by us of up to an aggregate of $300.0 million of our common stock by various means from time to time through and including December 31, 2026. We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock pursuant to this authorization during the three months ended March 31, 2025. At March 31, 2025, we had approximately $93.3 million remaining under this authorization for the repurchase of our common stock.
During the first three months of 2025, we issued 325,808 treasury shares which had an average cost of $3.20 per share for restricted stock units that vested during the period that had been previously issued under our stock-based compensation plans. In accordance with the applicable agreements for such restricted stock units, we repurchased 127,278 shares of our common stock at an average cost of $54.00 to satisfy minimum employee withholding tax requirements resulting from the vesting of such restricted stock units.
We account for treasury shares using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost method. As of March 31, 2025, 68,119,316 shares of our common stock were held in treasury.
Note 13. Stock-Based Compensation
We currently have one stock-based compensation plan in effect under which we have issued restricted stock units to our officers, other key employees and outside directors. During the first three months of 2025, 701,800 restricted stock units were granted to certain of our officers and other key employees. The fair value of these restricted stock units at the grant date was $37.9 million, which is being amortized ratably over the respective vesting period from the grant date.

Note 14. Segment Information
Our chief operating decision maker, who is our Chief Executive Officer and President, evaluates performance of our business segments and allocates resources based on the adjusted EBIT of our business segments. Adjusted EBIT is not a defined term under GAAP. We define adjusted EBIT as income before interest and income taxes excluding acquired intangible asset amortization expense, other pension (income) expense for U.S. pension plans, rationalization charges and costs attributed to announced acquisitions and including, as applicable, equity in earnings of affiliates, net of tax. Adjusted EBIT should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for income before interest and income taxes or any other financial data prepared in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to calculations of similarly titled measures by other companies.

Net sales and adjusted EBIT of our metal containers segment and of part of our dispensing and specialty closures segment are dependent, in part, upon the vegetable and fruit harvests in the United States and, to a lesser extent, in a variety of national growing regions in Europe. The size and quality of these harvests varies from year to year, depending in large part upon the weather conditions in applicable regions. Because of the seasonality of the harvests, we have historically experienced higher unit sales volume in the third quarter of our fiscal year and generated a disproportionate amount of our annual adjusted EBIT during that quarter.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Statements included in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts are “forward-looking statements” made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements are made based upon management’s expectations and beliefs concerning future events impacting us and therefore involve a number of uncertainties and risks, including, but not limited to, those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As a result, the actual results of our operations or our financial condition could differ materially from those expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements.
General
We are a leading manufacturer and supplier of sustainable rigid packaging solutions for the world's essential consumer goods products. We currently produce dispensing and specialty closures for the fragrance and beauty, food, beverage, personal and health care, home care and lawn and garden markets; steel and aluminum containers for pet and human food and general line products; and custom designed plastic containers for the pet and human food, consumer health and pharmaceutical, personal care, home care, lawn and garden and automotive markets. We are a leading worldwide manufacturer of dispensing and specialty closures, a leading manufacturer of metal containers in North America and Europe, and a leading manufacturer of custom containers in North America for a variety of markets.
Our objective is to increase shareholder value by efficiently deploying capital and management resources to grow our business, reduce operating costs and build sustainable competitive positions, or franchises, and to complete acquisitions that generate attractive cash returns. We have grown our net sales and income from operations largely through acquisitions but also through internal growth, and we continue to evaluate acquisition opportunities in the consumer goods packaging market. If acquisition opportunities are not identified over a longer period of time, we may use our cash flow to repay debt, repurchase shares of our common stock or increase dividends to our stockholders or for other permitted purposes.
In October 2024, we acquired Weener Plastics Holding B.V., or Weener Packaging. Weener Packaging's results of operations are included in our dispensing and specialty closures segment.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 Compared with Three Months Ended March 31, 2024
Net Sales. In the first quarter of 2025, consolidated net sales were $1.47 billion, an increase of $149.7 million, or 11.4 percent, as compared to the first quarter of 2024 primarily due to the inclusion of net sales from Weener Packaging, higher organic volumes across all segments and the pass through of higher raw material costs in the metal containers and custom containers segments, partially offset by the impact from unfavorable foreign currency translation of approximately $16 million.
Gross Profit. Gross profit margin increased 1.4 percentage points to 18.4 percent in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024 primarily for the reasons discussed below in "Income before Interest and Income Taxes."
-19-
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. In the first quarter of 2025, selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of consolidated net sales increased to 8.8 percent as compared to 7.6 percent in the first quarter of 2024. For the first quarter of 2025, selling, general and administrative expenses increased $28.6 million to $129.1 million as compared to the first quarter of 2024. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to the inclusion of selling, general and administrative expenses of Weener Packaging and higher expenses for corporate development activities.
Income before Interest and Income Taxes. In the first quarter of 2025, income before interest and income taxes increased by $18.8 million to $130.5 million as compared to $111.7 million in the first quarter of 2024, and margins increased to 8.9 percent from 8.5 percent over the same periods. The increase in income before interest and income taxes was primarily the result of the inclusion of income before interest and income taxes of Weener Packaging and improved manufacturing productivity and cost performance and higher organic volumes across all segments. Rationalization charges were $11.0 million and $11.7 million in the first quarters of 2025 and 2024, respectively. Costs attributed to announced acquisitions were $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2025.
Interest and Other Debt Expense. In the first quarter of 2025, interest and other debt expense increased $4.3 million to $42.9 million as compared to $38.6 million in the first quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher average borrowings during the current year period related to the Weener Packaging acquisition completed in October 2024.
Provision for Income Taxes. For the first quarters of 2025 and 2024, the effective tax rates were 23.8 percent and 24.5 percent, respectively.

Non-GAAP Measures
Generally accepted accounting principles in the United States are commonly referred to as GAAP. A non-GAAP financial measure is generally defined as a financial measure that purports to measure financial performance, financial position or liquidity but excludes or includes amounts that could not be so adjusted in the most comparable GAAP measure. Adjusted EBIT and adjusted EBIT margin are unaudited supplemental measures of financial performance that the Company uses, which are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP and therefore are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to income before interest and income taxes or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Such non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any financial data prepared in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company uses such non-GAAP financial measures because it considers them to be important and useful supplemental measures of its and its segments’ financial performance which provide a more complete understanding of the Company and its segments than could be obtained absent such non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that it is important and useful to present these non-GAAP financial measures because they allow for a better period-over-period comparison of results by removing the impact of items that, in management’s view, do not reflect the Company’s or its segments’ core operating performance. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to review and analyze the operating performance of the Company and its segments. Investors and others are urged to review and consider carefully the adjustments made by management to the most comparable GAAP financial measure to arrive at these non-GAAP financial measures.
Adjusted EBIT, a non-GAAP financial measure, means income before interest and income taxes excluding, as applicable, acquired intangible asset amortization expense, other pension (income) expense for U.S. pension plans, rationalization charges and costs attributed to announced acquisitions and including, as applicable, equity in earnings of affiliates, net of tax. Adjusted EBIT margin, a non-GAAP financial measure, means adjusted EBIT divided by segment net sales.
Acquired intangible asset amortization expense is a non-cash expense related to acquired operations that management believes is not indicative of the on-going performance of the acquired operations. Since the Company’s U.S. pension plans are significantly over funded and have no required cash contributions for the foreseeable future based on current regulations, management views other pension (income) expense from the Company’s U.S. pension plans, which excludes service costs, as not reflective of the operational performance of the Company or its segments. While rationalization costs are incurred on a regular basis, management views these costs more as an investment to generate savings rather than period costs. Costs attributed to announced acquisitions consist of third party fees and expenses that are viewed by management as part of the acquisition and not indicative of the on-going cost structure of the Company. The Company's management views the operating performance of its affiliates which are joint ventures as part of the Company's operating performance and therefore believes that the Company's share of the net operating results of its affiliates which are joint ventures should be included in the Company's adjusted EBIT.

| Adjusted EBIT | $ | 99.2 | $ | 77.8 | |||||||
| Adjusted EBIT margin | 14.8 | % | 14.5 | % | |||||||
In the first quarter of 2025, net sales for the dispensing and specialty closures segment increased $135.2 million, or 25.2 percent, as compared to the first quarter of 2024. This increase was primarily the result of the inclusion of net sales from Weener Packaging, higher organic unit volumes of approximately three percent and a more favorable mix of products sold, partially offset by the impact of unfavorable foreign currency translation of approximately $12.0 million.
In the first quarter of 2025, adjusted EBIT of the dispensing and specialty closures segment increased $21.4 million as compared to the first quarter of 2024, and adjusted EBIT margin increased to 14.8 percent from 14.5 percent over the same periods. The increase in adjusted EBIT was primarily due to the inclusion of adjusted EBIT from Weener Packaging, improved manufacturing productivity and cost performance, higher organic unit volumes and a more favorable mix of products sold, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign currency.

In the first quarter of 2025, net sales for the metal containers segment increased $11.3 million, or 1.8 percent, as compared to the first quarter of 2024. This increase was primarily the result of higher unit volumes of approximately four percent and the pass through of higher raw material costs, partially offset by a less favorable mix of products sold and the impact of unfavorable foreign currency translation of approximately $2.0 million. The increase in unit volumes was primarily due to higher volumes for pet food and soup markets.
In the first quarter of 2025, adjusted EBIT of the metal containers segment increased $4.6 million as compared to the first quarter of 2024, and adjusted EBIT margin increased to 7.9 percent from 7.3 percent for the same periods. The increase in adjusted EBIT was primarily due to improved manufacturing productivity and cost performance and higher unit volumes, partially offset by a less favorable mix of products sold due to higher unit volumes of smaller cans for pet food markets.

In the first quarter of 2025, net sales for the custom containers segment increased $3.2 million, or 2.0 percent, as compared to the first quarter of 2024. This increase was principally due to higher volumes of approximately two percent primarily driven by new business awards and the pass through of higher raw material costs, partially offset by the impact of unfavorable foreign currency translation of approximately $2.0 million.
In the first quarter of 2025, adjusted EBIT of the custom containers segment increased $4.4 million as compared to the first quarter of 2024, and adjusted EBIT margin increased to 14.7 percent from 12.3 percent over the same periods. The increase in adjusted EBIT was primarily attributable to improved manufacturing productivity and cost performance and higher volumes.
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
Our principal sources of liquidity have been net cash from operating activities and borrowings under our debt instruments, including our senior secured credit facility. Our liquidity requirements arise from our obligations under the indebtedness incurred in connection with our acquisitions and the refinancing of that indebtedness, capital investment in new and existing equipment, the funding of our seasonal working capital needs and other general corporate uses.
On March 15, 2025, we repaid all €650.0 million aggregate principal amount of our outstanding 3¼% Notes at 100 percent of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the repayment date. We funded this repayment with Euro revolving loan borrowings under the Credit Agreement and cash on hand.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we used net borrowings of revolving loans of $1.1 billion, cash and cash equivalents of $469.9 million and the positive effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents of $13.0 million to fund the repayment of long-term debt of $706.3 million, cash used in operations of $683.4 million, decreases in outstanding checks of $85.0 million, net capital expenditures and other investing activities of $82.5 million, dividends paid on our common stock of $21.9 million, repurchases of our common stock of $6.9 million and the repayment of principal amounts under finance leases of $1.3 million.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we used net borrowings of revolving loans of $582.4 million and cash and cash equivalents of $334.3 million to fund cash used in operations of $547.8 million, decreases in outstanding checks of $160.6 million, the repayment of long-term debt of $100.0 million, net capital expenditures and other investing activities of $72.5 million, dividends paid on our common stock of $21.1 million, repurchases of our common stock of $7.7 million, the repayment of principal amounts under finance leases of $0.3 million and the negative effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents of $6.7 million.
At March 31, 2025, we had $1.1 billion of revolving loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement. After taking into account outstanding letters of credit, the available portion of revolving loans under the Credit Agreement at March 31, 2025 was $398.2 million.
Because we sell metal containers and closures used in fruit and vegetable pack processing, we have seasonal sales. As is common in the industry, we must utilize working capital to build inventory and then carry accounts receivable for some customers beyond the end of the packing season. Due to our seasonal requirements, which generally peak sometime in the summer or early fall, we may incur short-term indebtedness to finance our working capital requirements. Our peak seasonal working capital requirements have historically averaged approximately $375 million. We fund seasonal working capital requirements through revolving loans under the Credit Agreement, other foreign bank loans and cash on hand. We may use the available portion of revolving loans under the Credit Agreement, after taking into account our seasonal needs and outstanding
-24-
letters of credit, for other general corporate purposes including acquisitions, capital expenditures, dividends, stock repurchases and to refinance or repurchase other debt.
We believe that cash generated from operations and funds from borrowings available under the Credit Agreement and other foreign bank loans will be sufficient to meet our expected operating needs, planned capital expenditures, debt service, tax obligations, pension benefit plan contributions, share repurchases and common stock dividends for the foreseeable future. We continue to evaluate acquisition opportunities in the consumer goods packaging market and may incur additional indebtedness, including indebtedness under the Credit Agreement, to finance any such acquisition.
We are in compliance with all financial and operating covenants contained in our financing agreements and believe that we will continue to be in compliance during 2025 with all of these covenants.
Supply Chain Finance Program
For our suppliers, we believe that we negotiate the best terms possible, including payment terms. In connection therewith, we initiated a SCF program with a major global financial institution. Under this SCF program, a qualifying supplier may elect, but is not obligated, to sell its receivables from us to such financial institution. A participating supplier negotiates its receivables sale arrangements directly with the financial institution under this SCF program. While we are not party to, and do not participate in the negotiation of, such arrangements, such financial institution allows a participating supplier to utilize our creditworthiness in establishing a credit spread in respect of the sale of its receivables from us as well as other applicable terms. This may provide a supplier with more favorable terms than it would be able to secure on its own. We have no economic interest in a supplier’s decision to sell a receivable. Once a qualifying supplier elects to participate in this SCF program and reaches an agreement with the financial institution, the supplier independently elects which individual invoices to us that they sell to the financial institution. All of our payments to a participating supplier are paid to the financial institution on the invoice due date under our agreement with such supplier, regardless of whether the individual invoice was sold by the supplier to the financial institution. The financial institution then pays the supplier on the invoice due date under our agreement with such supplier for any invoices not previously sold by the supplier to the financial institution. Amounts due to a supplier that elects to participate in this SCF program are included in accounts payable in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, and the associated payments are reflected in net cash provided by operating activities in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Separate from this SCF program, we and suppliers who participate in this SCF program generally maintain the contractual right to require the other party to negotiate in good faith the existing payment terms as a result of changes in market conditions, including changes in interest rates and general market liquidity, or in some cases for any reason. Outstanding trade accounts payables subject to this SCF program were approximately $262.9 million, $252.6 million and $303.7 million at March 31, 2025 and 2024 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Guaranteed Securities
Each of the 4⅛% Senior Notes, the 2¼% Senior Notes and the 1.4% Senior Secured Notes were issued by Silgan and are guaranteed by our U.S. subsidiaries that also guarantee our obligations under the Credit Agreement, collectively the Obligor Group.
The following summarized financial information relates to the Obligor Group as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Intercompany transactions, equity investments and other intercompany activity within the Obligor Group have been eliminated from the summarized financial information. Investments in subsidiaries of Silgan that are not part of the Obligor Group of $2.2 billion and $2.1 billion as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, are not included in noncurrent assets in the table below.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Obligor Group did not receive dividends from other subsidiary companies.
Rationalization Charges
We continually evaluate cost reduction opportunities across each of our segments, including rationalizations of our existing facilities through plant closings and downsizings. We use a disciplined approach to identify opportunities that generate attractive cash returns. Under our rationalization plans, we made cash payments of $3.5 million and $11.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Excluding the impact of our withdrawal from the Central States Pension Plan in 2019, remaining expenses and cash expenditures for our rationalization plans are expected to be $15.9 million and $20.3 million, respectively. Remaining expenses for the accretion of interest for the withdrawal liability related to the Central States Pension Plan are expected to average approximately $0.8 million per year and be recognized annually through 2040, and remaining cash expenditures for the withdrawal liability related to the Central States Pension Plan are expected to be approximately $2.6 million annually through 2040.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risks relating to our operations result primarily from changes in interest rates and, with respect to our international operations, in foreign currency exchange rates. In the normal course of business, we also have risk related to commodity price changes for items such as natural gas. We employ established policies and procedures to manage our exposure to these risks. Interest rate, foreign currency and commodity pricing transactions are used only to the extent considered necessary to meet our objectives. We do not utilize derivative financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.
Information regarding our interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange rate risk and commodity pricing risk has been disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. Since such filing, other than the changes discussed in Notes 6 and 7 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months ended March 31, 2025 included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, there has not been a material change to our interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange rate risk or commodity pricing risk or to our policies and procedures to manage our exposure to these risks.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As required by Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that our disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the period covered by this Quarterly Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, these internal controls.
In October 2024, we acquired Weener Packaging. We are currently in the process of integrating the internal controls and procedures of Weener Packaging into our internal controls over financial reporting. As provided under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, we will include the internal controls and procedures of Weener Packaging in our annual assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting for our 2025 fiscal year.
