Ranking Of The Top 500 in The United States: The Five Most Profitable Packaging And Printing Enterprises Are TA

Recently, Fortune magazine released the latest ranking of the top 500 in the United States.

On the whole, this year’s listing threshold is slightly higher than last year, with 5.66 billion US pictures. The total revenue of all 500 companies on the list reached US $14.2 trillion, an increase of more than 3.5% over last year. In contrast, 60 listed companies did not realize profits; Compared with last year, there were 15 more. Uber, which was newly listed this year, became the company with the most losses on the list, with a loss of US $8.51 billion.

In the latest US top 500 list, we found six companies related to printing and packaging, namely HP, international paper, DuPont, Xerox, Ellie Dennison and Donnelly.

HP

With a revenue of US $58.756 billion, it ranks 58 among the top 500 in the United States

In 2019, HP achieved revenue of 58.756 billion pictures and profit of 3.152 billion pictures.

Four years after the spin off, HP’s overall development tends to be stable and its performance is not surprising. Revenue growth is slowing due to the weakness of the PC (personal computer) market. The split helped HP focus on product development, promoted the printing business and innovated in the field of personal computers.

In early May this year, HP held the “hpindigo 2020 online new product launch” and launched a highly innovative and revolutionary hpindigo product series to provide faster and more efficient digital printing solutions for Chinese printing service providers and partners. With the gradual rise of digital printing technology, HP’s performance in the printing business in the future is worth looking forward to.

international paper

With a revenue of US $22.376 billion, it ranks 144 among the top 500 in the United States

In 2019, the international paper industry realized a revenue of US $22.376 billion and a profit of US $1.225 billion.

In recent years, domestic paper prices have generally been on the rise. However, the global paper giant international paper industry has not encountered this golden period. As early as October 2015, American International Paper and its Chinese partner Shandong Sun Paper Co., Ltd. reached a final agreement to sell 55% of the equity held in the three joint venture paper industries formed by the two sides to Shandong sun. This also means that the international paper industry’s ten-year gold rush in China’s paper industry ended up with huge losses and bleak exit.

From other markets, the development of international paper industry is not ideal. It is reported that international paper and klabin s A. An agreement was reached to sell its Brazilian corrugated packaging business to the latter for R $330 million. In this transaction, international paper will sell three container board mills and four carton mills. It is worth mentioning that when international paper obtained full ownership of the asset in 2014, its valuation was R $1.27 billion.

DuPont

The revenue is US $21.512 billion, ranking 152 among the top 500 in the United States

In 2019, DuPont achieved a revenue of US $21.512 billion and a profit of US $498 million.

In early April 2019, Dow was separated from the Dow DuPont consortium. On June 3, DuPont announced that with the successful spin off and separation of the agricultural department from the original Dow DuPont company into kedihua company, DuPont company made a new appearance as an independent company. As a result, Dow DuPont will eventually be split into three independent listed companies, respectively responsible for three different sectors: Materials Science, special products and agriculture.

DuPont’s main business is to develop high-performance materials, special chemicals, medicine and biotechnology for transportation, safety, protection, construction, automobile, agriculture, household products, medical treatment, packaging, electronics, nutrition and health care markets.

Xerox

The revenue is USD 9.145 billion, ranking 347 among the top 500 in the United States

In 2019, Xerox achieved a revenue of US $9.145 billion and a profit of US $1.353 billion.

In the past period of time, Xerox’s most eye-catching plan was to acquire HP. Xerox’s acquisition plan has been put forward since the autumn of 2019. Considering Xerox’s scale (Xerox’s market value of US $8 billion pictures and HP’s market value of US $32 billion pictures) and quotation, the plan has been rejected by HP for many times.

In this regard, Xerox’s bid in early March was raised to 35 billion U.S. pictures, about 243.9 billion yuan. It even threatened to bypass the board of directors and negotiate directly with shareholders. HP also tit for tat and announced the stock repurchase plan of 16 billion U.S. pictures, which increased the difficulty of Xerox’s acquisition.

On April 1, Xerox announced that it had abandoned its acquisition plan for HP, and the capital play of snake swallowing elephant finally came to an end.

Xerox attributed the reason for abandoning the plan to the uncertainty of the global economy caused by the global epidemic, Xerox said: “the current global health crisis and the macroeconomic and market turmoil caused by covid-19 have created an environment that is not conducive to Xerox’s continued acquisition of HP. Therefore, we will withdraw our offer to acquire HP and will no longer seek to nominate candidates to the HP board of directors.”

Avery Dennison Corporation

The revenue is USD 7.070 billion, ranking 435 among the top 500 in the United States

In 2019, Allie Denison achieved a revenue of US $7.070 billion and a profit of US $304 million.

As we all know, in October 2016, Donnelly officially split the company into three independent and publicly traded companies, namely LSC communications, Donnelley financial solutions and R.R. Donnelley & Sons. R. R. Donnelley & sons will retain the names and stocks previously listed on Nasdaq, including business process outsourcing (BPO), business and digital printing, that is, Donnelly mentioned in our list.

According to the data, Donnelly lost US $932 million in 2019 and US $9.6 million in the same period last year, an increase of about 870% year-on-year. It can be seen that even as the leader of the printing industry in North America, he is not very comfortable.

It is not difficult to find that in the printing transformation period, even giants are seeking to explore change, or seek merger and reorganization, or split development. How to be conducive to the future development of enterprises still needs transformation and upgrading!
