Standard & Poor's lowers Verallia's rating to BB+

Verallia, a major player in the glass packaging sector, has had its long-term credit rating downgraded from BBB- to BB+ by Standard & Poor's. This decision comes amid a market slowdown. The company's bond rating has also been downgraded. Despite this announcement, Verallia is maintaining its strategy, focusing its efforts on improving its competitiveness, generating cash flow, and reducing its debt.

As of December 31, 2025, the Group's net debt ratio stood at 2.7 times adjusted EBITDA, while maintaining a solid liquidity level of €870 million. No significant debt maturities are expected before 2028, ensuring a degree of financial stability despite the rating revision.
