Packaging Corp of AmericaQ2 earnings estimates show revenue growth but EPS decline; Earnings ESP negative, unlikely to beat
Packaging Corporation of America is scheduled to release second-quarter 2026 results on July 22 after the closing bell. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is $2.40 billion, indicating 10.7% growth from the year-ago quarter, while the earnings estimate of $2.31 per share suggests a 6.8% decline.
