We are excited to share that both @dssmithgroup shareholders and IP shareholders overwhelmingly voted in favor of the combination. The support from the shareholders of both companies reaffirms our belief that bringing the two companies together would create a true global leader of sustainable packaging solutions and more opportunities for our customers, people and all stakeholders. This represents another important step towards the potential combination and we continue to work through the regulatory approvals required to complete the transaction. Note: This post contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those projected.
