Einhorn Boosts GPK Stake 80%

Watch: Watch Q1 2026 earnings for signs of revenue growth acceleration or leverage changes to validate Einhorn's conviction.

David Einhorn's Greenlight Capital increased its GPK stake by 80% to 8.4 million shares in Q4 2025. GPK nears completion of a $1.67B greenfield mill in Waco, Texas, aimed at productivity gains. The company projects $700-$800 million adjusted free cash flow for 2026, driven by 70%+ revenue from essential food and beverage packaging and a shift toward fiber-based renewable packaging.

Einhorn's sizable buy signals confidence amid ongoing transformation and sustainability initiatives, positioning GPK to capitalize on growing demand for eco-friendly packaging and solid free cash flow outlook.

Event Predictions

bearish Q1 2026 earnings release on 2026-04-30
12d

GPK likely to sell off on earnings; estimates cut 15.8%

+0.0% $9.84 → $9.84
Thesis

GPK faces a 50% sell-the-news probability with estimates revised down 15.8% and analyst downgrades (2 down vs 1 up in 30d) signaling deteriorating fundamentals. Insiders have sold $2.07M with zero buys in 90 days, and extreme bullish options positioning (P/C 0.02) is a contrarian sell signal. The stock is at its 52w high ($9.84) but in a downtrend, limiting upside and increasing reversal risk.
