Smurfit Westrock Announces Intention to Delist from the LSE Smurfit Westrock Plc announced its intention to delist from the London Stock Exchange (the “LSE”) (the “LSE Delisting”). Once the LSE Delisting takes effect, the Company will be solely listed on the New York Stock Exchange. On 30 April 2026, Smurfit Westrock announced its intention to undertake a review of its listing on the LSE. As part of the review, the Company carefully considered, among other factors, the level of trading activity on the LSE as well as the additional cost and regulatory and administrative obligations arising from retaining the LSE listing. Following completion of the review, the Board has determined that it is in the best interests of Smurfit Westrock to proceed with the LSE Delisting. Smurfit Westrock will request: (i) the UK Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA”) to cancel the listing of its ordinary shares on the equity shares (international commercial companies secondary listing) category of the Official List of the FCA; and (ii) the LSE to cancel the admission to trading of its ordinary shares on the main market for listed securities of the LSE. For the purposes of FCA UK Listing Rule 21.2.17, Smurfit Westrock is required to give at least 20 business days’ notice of the LSE Delisting. It is expected that the LSE Delisting will become effective from 8:00 a.m. (UK time) on 22 June 2026, such that the last day of trading of ordinary shares on the LSE will be 19 June 2026. Declared Dividend • May 11
First quarter dividend of US$0.45 announced Shareholders will receive a dividend of US$0.45. Ex-date: 15th May 2026 Payment date: 10th June 2026 Dividend yield will be 3.6%, which is higher than the industry average of 2.9%. Sustainability & Growth Dividend is not covered by earnings (240% earnings payout ratio) nor is it adequately covered by cash flows (93% cash payout ratio). The dividend has increased by an average of 9.2% per year over the past 10 years. However, payments have been volatile during that time. The company's earnings per share (EPS) would need to grow by 167% to bring the payout ratio under control. EPS is expected to grow by 150% over the next 3 years, which means the dividend may need to be reduced to reach a sustainable payout ratio. Board Change • May 11
High number of new directors There are 5 new directors who have joined the board in the last 3 years. Independent Director Carole Brown was the last director to join the board, commencing their role in 2025. The company’s lack of board continuity is considered a risk according to the Simply Wall St Risk Model. Announcement • May 02

New minor risk - Earnings quality The company has large one-off items impacting its financial results. One-off items were 20% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk. One-off items are incomes or expenses that the company does not expect to repeat in future periods. Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Shares are highly illiquid. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (101% increase in shares outstanding). Minor Risks High level of debt (52% net debt to equity). Dividend is not well covered by cash flows (122% cash payout ratio). Large one-off items impacting financial results. Announcement • Oct 25
