WestRock stock leads S&P 500 lowers after paper and packaging company misses on earnings, pulls guidance
Shares of WestRock Co. (WRK) tumbled 16.0% toward a more than 3-month low, enough to pace the S&P 500’s (SPX) decliners, after the paper and packaging company reported fiscal first-quarter profit and sales that missed expectations and pulled its full-year outlook citing “uncertain macroeconomic conditions.” Chief Executive David Sewell said he expects the market conditions that weighed on results, including elevated inflation and a softening economy, are expected to continue in the near-term. WestRock shares have now lost 28.9% over the past 12 months, while the S&P 500 has declined 10.2%.
