The latest update is out from International Paper Co ( (IP) ).

International Paper plans to separate its operations into two independent, publicly traded companies, with one retaining the North American business – including legacy IP and DS Smith assets – and the other comprising an EMEA Packaging company operating across 30 countries and combining the firms’ European assets. The EMEA business will be spun off to shareholders, with International Paper keeping a significant stake, and the new entity is expected to secure dual listings in London and New York; the move follows IP’s 2025 acquisition of DS Smith and formal confirmation that it has complied with its post-offer commitments, and is designed to give each company more focused management, tailored capital allocation and distinct market strategies, with named leadership teams already identified for both entities.
