The adjusted EBITDA of $271 million for the quarter was an 11% reduction of constant currency from the previous year.
Paul Coulson, Chairman and Chief Executive, said: “The group performed well in the quarter, reflecting strong execution and the defensive end markets we serve.
“Demand for sustainable packaging remains strong and we continue to progress our growth investment projects.
“We also availed of favourable markets to improve our capital structure and ended the quarter with total liquidity of $1.6 billion.
“Overall trading trends in June were positive and we are well-positioned to benefit from further improvements in market demand.”
The performance of Ardagh’s glass packaging was stable throughout the second quarter, with strength in food end markets mitigating the impact of on-premise closures.
