Graphic Packaging Holding Co., a small-cap player in the packaging industry, has reached a new 52-week low of USD 18.91 as of October 6, 2025.

The company's market capitalization stands at USD 6,242 million, with a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 11.00. Despite a high dividend yield of 206.71%, Graphic Packaging is grappling with a debt-to-equity ratio of 1.73, indicating a substantial reliance on debt financing. The return on equity is reported at 18.59%, but the company has faced challenges, including negative results for the last two consecutive quarters.

Key performance indicators reveal a concerning trend, with operating cash flow at its lowest of USD 769 million and a return on capital employed (ROCE) of just 17.71%. Additionally, the inventory turnover ratio has dropped to 3.88 times, reflecting inefficiencies in inventory management. Overall, the stock's performance has been below par, highlighting the difficulties faced by Graphic Packaging Holding Co. in the current market landscape.
