Greif Class A ( (GEF) ) has provided an announcement.

Greif, Inc. has realigned its fiscal calendar effective October 1, 2025, shifting its year-end to September 30 and recasting fiscal 2025 quarterly results to match the new reporting schedule, while also renaming its Integrated Solutions segment to Innovative Closure Solutions and redistributing recycled fiber, adhesives and steel-related services into the Sustainable Fiber Solutions and Durable Metal Solutions segments. On June 30, 2025 Greif agreed to sell its containerboard business, closing on August 31, 2025, and the divestiture is now treated as discontinued operations, prompting a historical reclassification of that business’s results and assets across all recast 2025 quarters to better reflect the company’s strategic shift and current segment structure without restating previously filed financials.

The newly furnished historical financial tables present 2025 net sales, gross profit, operating profit and Adjusted EBITDA by the updated segments and recast quarters to align with the fiscal 2026 reporting framework, providing investors with comparable data under the new structure. By repositioning each business within an integrated value chain and highlighting a dedicated Innovative Closure Solutions segment, Greif aims to clarify its core packaging and closure focus for stakeholders evaluating performance and the impact of the containerboard exit.

The most recent analyst rating on (GEF) stock is a Hold with a $76.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Greif Class A stock, see the GEF Stock Forecast page.

**Spark’s Take on GEF Stock**

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GEF is a Neutral.

The score is driven most by financials and the earnings outlook: improved leverage and reaffirmed FY2026 guidance with strong margin/EBITDA progress are positives, but they are tempered by weak TTM cash generation and negative free cash flow. Technicals are modestly supportive, and valuation is reasonable with a ~3.1% dividend yield.
