International Paper's EMEA Leaders Set Nov. 3 Capital Markets Day

International Paper's EMEA leadership team scheduled a Capital Markets Day for Tuesday, Nov. 3, to discuss the planned packaging company's business model, strategy and post-separation outlook.

The event will run from 8 a.m. to noon ET. International Paper plans to separate its EMEA packaging business into an independent company called DS Smith plc, a plan covered with the company's third-quarter results.

International Paper has said it will stop providing EMEA financial guidance under its framework as it advances the separation and addresses subsequent U.K. regulatory requirements. Chairman and CEO Andy Silvernail said, “At the same time, we are advancing the separation of our EMEA packaging business.”
