Silgan Holdings (SLGN): Evaluating Valuation After a Weak Year of Share Price Performance

Simply Wall St·12/21/2025 23:22:13
Listen to the news

Silgan Holdings (SLGN) has been drifting after a weak year for the stock, even as earnings and revenue continue to inch higher. That gap between share performance and fundamentals is what catches my eye here.

See our latest analysis for Silgan Holdings.

Over the past year, Silgan’s share price return has been weak, with a year to date decline of about 20 percent and a 1 year total shareholder return of roughly minus 20 percent. However, the recent 1 month share price return has turned mildly positive, suggesting sentiment may be stabilising rather than collapsing.

If you are reassessing packaging names after this sluggish patch for Silgan, it could be a good moment to compare it with other fast growing stocks with high insider ownership.

With earnings still growing and the shares trading at a sizeable discount to analyst targets and intrinsic value estimates, is this the moment to pick up Silgan on the cheap, or is the market already discounting future growth?

Most Popular Narrative Narrative: 17.7% Undervalued

With Silgan last closing at $40.85 against a narrative fair value near $49.64, the storyline leans toward upside if its growth plans play out.

Strong organic growth in high value dispensing products and successful integration of the Weener acquisition create incremental cross selling and innovation opportunities, especially in fast growing end markets like personal care, beauty, and home care, which is poised to support sustained above market revenue growth and higher margins.
