The business in plain English
Reynolds Consumer Products makes everyday household goods for cooking, serving, cleanup and storage. It has two flagship brands. Reynolds is known mainly for Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil. Hefty is known for trash bags, food storage bags and party cups. The company also makes store-brand (private label) versions that retailers sell under their own names. It says its products are found in 95% of U.S. households and that it holds the #1 or #2 U.S. market share in most of its categories.
It makes money by selling to retailers, including grocery stores, mass merchants, warehouse clubs, dollar stores and online sellers. Net revenue was $3.72 billion in fiscal 2025, which ended December 31, 2025. Reynolds Cooking & Baking (foil, parchment, disposable pans, oven bags) brought in about 34%. Hefty Waste & Storage (trash and food storage bags) added about 27%, and Hefty Tableware (plates, cups, cutlery) about 23%. Presto Products, which mainly makes store-brand bags and plastic wrap, brought in about 17%.
Sales are concentrated. The U.S. made up 98% of 2025 sales. One customer accounted for 31% of revenue and a second, affiliated customer for another 17%. The top ten customers made up 74%. Sales peak in the fourth quarter, when holiday cooking lifts demand for foil and oven bags. The main raw materials are aluminum and plastic resins such as polyethylene.

What could go wrong
- Two related customers drive nearly half of sales. One customer made up 31% of 2025 revenue and an affiliated one 17%; the top ten were 74%. Contracts don't require set purchase amounts, and big retailers push hard on prices.
- A controlling shareholder sets the direction. Packaging Finance Limited (PFL) controls the company, so Nasdaq's "controlled company" rules let it skip some governance requirements. Large PFL share sales could weigh on the price, and other shareholders have limited influence.
- One plant chain makes all household foil. Its Malvern, Arkansas plant is the only source of foil rolls for its Louisville, Kentucky and Wheeling, Illinois plants, which make all its household foil. An outage could cut foil supply.
- Aluminum, resin and tariff costs can squeeze margins. Key inputs are aluminum and the plastic resins polyethylene and polystyrene. Swings in these costs, plus energy, freight and tariffs, can hurt profits, and powerful retailers can resist price increases.
- Environmental pressure on disposable products. Many products, such as foam dishes, plastic cutlery and trash bags, are thrown away after use. Shifting consumer attitudes and new environmental laws could cut demand or force costly product changes.
- Significant debt and interest costs. Total debt was $1.53 billion against $66 million of cash as of June 30, 2026. Higher interest rates raise borrowing costs and could limit money for dividends or investment.

For income and retirement investors
Dividends per share rose from $0.59 in fiscal 2020 to $0.92 in 2021, then stayed at $0.92 through 2025, so there is no streak of annual increases. The yield was 3.99% as of October 28, 2026. In fiscal 2025 the $192 million paid out used about 64% of earnings and 61% of free cash flow (cash left after running the business and investing in plants). Free cash flow fell short of the dividend in 2021 and 2022. There were no buybacks from 2021 to 2025, and the share count edged up 0.5% between July 2021 and July 2026.
In the 2020 COVID crash the shares fell 20.1% and regained their earlier level about a month after the low. In the 2022 bear market they fell 21.8% and took about 4.7 months to recover. The deepest drop in 6.7 years of trading was 33.4%, as of October 28, 2026. Single stocks carry more risk than diversified funds.
Questions investors ask
How does Reynolds Consumer Products make money?
It sells household products to retailers, which resell them to shoppers. It offers its own brands, such as Reynolds Wrap and Hefty, plus store-brand versions that retailers sell under their own names. In fiscal 2025, Reynolds Cooking & Baking brought in about 34% of revenue, Hefty Waste & Storage about 27%, Hefty Tableware about 23% and Presto Products about 17%. Net revenue was $3.72 billion and net income $301 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The U.S. made up 98% of sales.
Does Reynolds Consumer Products raise its dividend every year?
No. Dividends per share rose from $0.59 in fiscal 2020 to $0.92 in 2021, then stayed at $0.92 every year through fiscal 2025, so there is no streak of annual increases. The company paid $192 million a year in dividends from 2021 to 2025. Its annual report says it intends to keep paying regular dividends but warns that its ability to do so may be limited. The yield was 3.99% as of October 28, 2026.
Is the REYN dividend covered by earnings and cash flow?
Yes, in fiscal 2025. The company paid $192 million in dividends, about 64% of its $301 million net income and 61% of its $316 million free cash flow (cash from operations minus spending on plants and equipment). Earnings were $1.43 per share against $0.92 in dividends. Coverage has not always been that comfortable. Free cash flow was $169 million in 2021 and $91 million in 2022, below the $192 million paid each year. Total debt stood at $1.53 billion as of June 30, 2026.
Who controls Reynolds Consumer Products?
Packaging Finance Limited (PFL) controls the company, according to its annual report. That makes Reynolds a "controlled company" under Nasdaq rules, meaning one holder has majority voting power, so it relies on exemptions from certain Nasdaq corporate governance requirements. Other shareholders may have little influence on major decisions. The report also warns that large share sales by PFL could weigh on the stock. And if PFL sold control privately, other holders might not receive a takeover premium.
How has Reynolds Consumer Products stock performed?
Its share price has barely moved. As of October 28, 2026, the price was up about 1% in total over five years, or 0.2% a year, not counting dividends. Calendar-year price changes were 7.8% in 2021, -1.5% in 2022, -7.5% in 2023, 3.8% in 2024 and -11.7% in 2025. Its one-year beta, a measure of how much a stock tends to move with the overall market, was a low 0.15. As of that date, the stock traded at 16.1 times fiscal 2025 earnings.
