ZURICH,Aug. 18,2021 --

GAAP Net Income of $939 million,up 53%; GAAP earnings per share (EPS) of 60.2 cps,up 58%;

Adjusted EPS of 74.4 cps,up 16% on a comparable constant currency basis,above guidance range;

Adjusted Free Cash Flow of $1.1 billion,at upper end of guidance range;

Bemis integration completed - financial targets exceeded and stronger foundation for growth: approximately $75 million of cost synergies in FY21 and expect total to exceed original $180 million target by at least 10%;

Strong cash returns to shareholders: annual dividend increased to 47.0 cents per share,including 11.75 cents per share declared today. $350 million shares repurchased in FY21 (approximately 2% of outstanding shares);

Accelerating sustainability agenda and delivery of responsible packaging solutions; and

Fiscal 2022 outlook: Adjusted EPS growth of 7-11% on a comparable constant currency basis and Adjusted Free Cash Flow of $1.1-$1.2 billion. Allocating approximately $400 million of cash towards share repurchases.

An outstanding year,exceeding expectations

Amcor's CEO Mr. Ron Delia said: "Amcor delivered record full year earnings in 2021,as our teams successfully executed against our strategy,delivered growth and increased EBIT margins while managing exceptionally well through steep raw material cost increases and supply constraints. EPS was 16% higher than last year,ahead of our upgraded guidance and we generated Free Cash Flow of $1.1 billion while increasing capital investments to generate future growth in our most attractive segments. The strong cash flow also enabled significant cash returns to shareholders through a higher annual dividend and the repurchase of shares. Across the business we ended the year with good momentum and we expect another strong year in fiscal 2022."

"In the two years following our transformational acquisition of Bemis,we have strengthened our financial profile and consistently built earnings momentum. The integration is essentially complete and we will exceed our original $180 million cost synergy target by at least 10% and Free Cash Flow for fiscal 2022 is expected to be almost double pre acquisition levels. Amcor is now better positioned strategically than ever with global scale,strong innovation capabilities and greater exposure to more attractive,higher growth end markets like healthcare and protein which offer more potential for differentiation and growth. This improved foundation will enable stronger growth and value creation for all stakeholders into the future."

Bemis cost synergies

The Bemis Company was acquired through an all-stock transaction in June 2019.

Amcor continued to execute well against overhead,procurement and footprint initiatives and delivered approximately $75 million (pre-tax) of incremental cost synergies during fiscal 2021. Of this amount,approximately $65 million was recognized in the Flexibles segment and approximately $10 million in Other.

Combined with the $80 million delivered in fiscal 2020,cumulative costs synergies have reached approximately $155 million. Amcor expects to exceed the original target of $180 million by the end of fiscal 2022 by at least 10%.

Cash Returns to Shareholders

Amcor generates significant and growing Free Cash Flow,maintains strong credit metrics and is committed to an investment grade credit rating. This annual Free Cash Flow provides substantial capacity to simultaneously reinvest in the business,pursue acquisitions and return cash to shareholders through a compelling and growing dividend as well as share repurchases.

Dividend

The Amcor Board of Directors today declared a quarterly cash dividend of 11.75 cents per share. Combined with the last three quarterly dividends,this increases the annual dividend for fiscal 2021 to 47.0 US cents per share. The quarterly dividend declared today will be paid in US dollars to holders of Amcor's ordinary shares trading on the NYSE. Holders of CDIs trading on the ASX will receive an unfranked dividend of 15.93 Australian cents per share,which reflects the quarterly dividend of 11.75 cents per share converted at an average AUD:USD exchange rate of 0.7374 over the five trading days ended August 10,2021.

The ex-dividend date will be September 7,2021,the record date will be September 8,2021 and the payment date will be September 28,2021.

Share repurchases

$350 million was used to repurchase shares in fiscal 2021 which reduced the total number of shares issued and outstanding by approximately 2%.

Amcor expects to allocate approximately $400 million of cash towards share repurchases in the 2022 fiscal year.

(1) Comparable constant currency ∆% for Net sales excludes a 2% favorable currency impact,a 1% unfavorable impact from items affecting

Net sales includes more than $100 million of price increases in the fourth quarter ending 30 June 2021,related to the pass through of higher raw material input costs.

Full year net sales on a comparable constant currency basis were marginally higher than the prior period with 1% higher volumes partially offset by price/mix.

Full year segment volume growth of 1% reflects strong growth across a range of higher value end markets including meat,coffee and pet food,which was mostly offset by lower volumes in certain healthcare end markets driven by fewer elective surgeries and prescriptions trends during the COVID-19 pandemic.

In North America,low single digit volume growth for fiscal 2021 was mainly driven by strength in the meat,frozen food and condiments end markets. This was partly offset by lower healthcare,home and personal care volumes.

In Europe,full year volumes were marginally lower than the same period last year with higher volumes in the pet food,cheese and coffee end markets offset by lower healthcare and yogurt volumes.

Full year volumes grew at mid-single digit rates across the Asian emerging markets,with double digit growth in both China and India,partly offset by lower volumes in South East Asia. In Latin America,fiscal 2021 volumes grew at low single digit rates compared with the prior period.

Adjusted EBIT for fiscal 2021 of $1,427 million was 9% higher than the prior period on a comparable constant currency basis. This includes 4% organic growth primarily reflecting higher volumes and outstanding margin management through the year. The remaining growth reflects approximately $65 million of cost synergy benefits related to the Bemis acquisition.

Adjusted EBIT margin expanded by 90 basis points to 14.2% compared with the prior year.

(1) Comparable constant currency ∆% for Net sales excludes a 3% unfavorable impact from the pass through of raw material costs and a 1%

Full year net sales on a comparable constant currency basis were 8% higher than the prior year. Overall volumes were 5% higher than the prior period with broad growth across North America and Latin America,and price/mix had a 3% favorable impact which includes pricing to recover cost inflation in Latin America.

In North America,full year beverage volumes were 8% higher than the prior year with hot fill container volumes up 13%. Growth was driven by rising consumer demand through the year which resulted in capacity shortages across the industry. Demand was particularly strong in hot fill categories including sports drinks,ready to drink tea and juice reflecting higher consumption and new product innovation in categories where the preferred package format is the PET container. Specialty container volumes were also higher than the prior year with good growth in the spirits,home and personal care categories,partly offset by lower healthcare volumes.

In Latin America,full year volumes were 5% higher than the prior year with sequential improvement in each quarter. Volumes grew in particular in Brazil and Argentina,partly offset by lower volumes in certain other markets in the region.

Adjusted EBIT for fiscal 2021 of $299 million was 8% higher than the prior year in comparable constant currency terms. Positive mix across the business and higher volumes were partly offset by increased labor and transportation costs incurred in North America to service rapidly increasing volume ahead of installing additional capacity.

Net interest and income tax expense

Combined net interest and adjusted tax expense were broadly in line with last year. Net interest expense for the twelve months ended June 30,2021 was $139 million compared with $185 million in the same period last year,with the decrease primarily driven by lower interest rates on floating rate debt. Offsetting this,adjusted tax expense for the twelve months ended June 30,2021 (adjusted to exclude amounts related to non-GAAP adjustments) was $313 million compared with $276 million in the same period last year. Adjusted tax expense represents an effective tax rate of 21.1% in the current period (21.0% in the same period last year).

Free Cash Flow

Adjusted Free Cash Flow for fiscal 2021 was $1,099 million. This is lower than the prior year as higher EBITDA growth was offset by the adverse impact from the timing of tax payments and a lower working capital benefit compared with fiscal 2020 when the business released more than $200 million of cash from working capital following the Bemis acquisition. Working capital performance remained strong through fiscal 2021 with Amcor's twelve month average working capital to sales ratio decreasing to 8%.

Balance sheet

Net debt was $5,439 million at June 30,and leverage,measured as net debt divided by adjusted trailing twelve month EBITDA was 2.7 times.

Fiscal 2022 guidance

Amcor's guidance contemplates a range of factors,however the COVID-19 pandemic creates higher degrees of uncertainty and additional complexity when estimating future financial results. For the twelve month period ending 30 June 2022,the Company expects:

Adjusted EPS growth of approximately 7 to 11% on a comparable constant currency basis,or approximately 79.0 to 81.0 cents per share on a reported basis assuming current exchange rates prevail through fiscal 2022.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow of approximately $1.1 to $1.2 billion.

Approximately $400 million of cash to be allocated towards share repurchases.

While Amcor's business is expected to continue demonstrating resilience given it plays an important role in the supply of essential consumer goods,the level of earnings and Free Cash Flow generated across the business could be impacted by COVID-19 related factors such as the extent and nature of any future operational disruptions across the supply chain,government imposed restrictions on consumer mobility and the pace of macroeconomic recovery in key global economies. The ultimate magnitude and duration of the pandemic's impact on the Company's business remains uncertain at this time.

Presentation of non-GAAP information

Included in this release are measures of financial performance that are not calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These measures include adjusted EBIT (calculated as earnings before interest and tax),adjusted net income,adjusted earnings per share,adjusted free cash flow and net debt. In arriving at these non-GAAP measures,we exclude items that either have a non-recurring impact on the income statement or which,in the judgment of our management,are items that,either as a result of their nature or size,could,were they not singled out,potentially cause investors to extrapolate future performance from an improper base. While not all inclusive,examples of these items include:

material restructuring programs,including associated costs such as employee severance,pension and related benefits,impairment of property,plant,and equipment and other assets,accelerated depreciation,termination payments for contracts and leases,contractual obligations and any other qualifying costs related to the restructuring plan;

material sales and earnings from disposed or ceased operations and any associated profit or loss on sale of businesses or subsidiaries;

consummated and identifiable divestitures agreed to with certain regulatory agencies as a condition of approval for Amcor's acquisition of Bemis;

impairments in goodwill and equity method investments;

material acquisition compensation and transaction costs such as due diligence expenses,professional and legal fees and integration costs;

material purchase accounting adjustments for inventory;

amortization of acquired intangible assets from business combinations;

payments or settlements related to legal claims; and

impacts from hyperinflationary accounting

Amcor also evaluates performance on a comparable constant currency basis,which measures financial results assuming constant foreign currency exchange rates used for translation based on the average rates in effect for the comparable prior-year period. In order to compute comparable constant currency results,we multiply or divide,as appropriate,current-year U.S. dollar results by the current-year average foreign exchange rates and then multiply or divide,those amounts by the prior-year average foreign exchange rates. We then adjust for other items affecting comparability. While not all inclusive,examples of items affecting comparability include the difference between sales or earnings in the current period and the prior period related to acquired,disposed or ceased operations. Comparable constant currency net sales performance also excludes the impact from passing through movements in raw material costs.

Management has used and uses these measures internally for planning,forecasting,and evaluating the performance of the Company's reporting segments and certain of the measures are used as a component of Amcor's board of directors' measurement of Amcor's performance for incentive compensation purposes. Amcor believes that these non-GAAP measures are useful to enable investors to perform comparisons of current and historical performance of the company. For each of these non-GAAP financial measures,a reconciliation to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure has been provided herein. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an alternative to results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company provides guidance on a non-GAAP basis as we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome and timing of certain significant forward-looking items without unreasonable effort. These items include but are not limited to the impact of foreign exchange translation,restructuring program costs,asset impairments,possible gains and losses on the sale of assets,and certain tax related events. These items are uncertain,depend on various factors,and could have a material impact on U.S. GAAP earnings and cash flow measures for the guidance period.

Dividends

Amcor has received a waiver from the ASX's settlement operating rules,which will allow the Company to defer processing conversions between its ordinary share and CDI registers from September 7,2021 to September 8,2021 inclusive.
