Packaging Corporation of America (PKG) has been experiencing substantial progress this year, visibly outperforming its industrial peers. Initial reports highlight its cumulative revenue standing at $7,929 Million TTM as of June 2024. Several companies, such as Summit Financial Strategies Inc., Blue Trust Inc., and Envestnet Portfolio Solutions Inc., have recently increased their share holdings. PKG has seen a 49% gain in the year, beating analysts' expectations in Q1 and Q2 earnings, consequently hitting a fresh high in the market. Q2 earnings reportedly topped estimates due to high volumes, surpassing its revenue targets and securing an EPS of $2.21 Billion. However, despite these positive trends, there are concerns around the company's returns on capital and high valuations for questionable economics. Insider selling has occurred with the SVP selling shares worth over $1.1 million, and the stock price is at an all-time high of $199.9. PKG's performance and potential for continued growth make it a strong contender in the sustainable packaging stocks to purchase. However, analysts recommend holding the stock, citing weak growth prospects in the near term.
