Ardagh Group revenue hits $2.5bn in Q3

Ardagh Group said its consolidated third-quarter revenue reached roughly $2.50 billion, ending September 30.

Meanwhile, its metal-packaging division, Ardagh Metal Packaging S.A. (AMP), delivered a robust quarter in its own right. 

For the three months ended 30 September 2025, AMP generated $1,428 million in revenue, up 9% from the same quarter last year (6% growth on a constant-currency basis). 

AMP’s adjusted EBITDA rose to $208 million, a 6% increase compared to Q3 2024 (3% at constant currency). 

In the Americas, adjusted EBITDA climbed to US$126 million — up 8% year-on-year — helped by lower operating costs and favourable product mix. In Europe, adjusted EBITDA reached US$82 million, up 4% on a reported basis (slightly down in constant-currency terms), reflecting a mix of volume/mix improvements, currency effects, and headwinds from lower input-cost recovery. 

Although global beverage-can shipments fell 1% in the quarter, growth in Europe and a modest uptick in North America helped dampen the impact — while a sharp decline in Brazil weighed on results. 

Importantly, AMP ended the quarter with a strong liquidity position: $627 million in available liquidity. That liquidity — part of the broader group’s approx. US$1.07 billion at quarter end — provides a solid buffer amid economic uncertainty. 

AMP also reaffirmed a regular quarterly dividend of US$0.10 per ordinary share. 

Looking ahead, management said global volumes remain up over 3% year-to-date versus the prior period. They also reiterated full-year 2025 adjusted EBITDA guidance for AMP: now expected to reach US$720–735 million, based on the current mix of favourable demand, operational discipline and currency assumptions.
