As we step into December, we’d be remiss if we didn’t take a moment to recognize the people who defined November in the best way. The November Core Value Awards went to teammates who didn’t just get things done. They made the place work better for everyone. * Tanya H. Hubbard was recognized for pushing our social and podcast efforts with real momentum and results. * Zoe H. kept APEC content moving during an AWS outage that could have shut everything down. * Raj Sibia brought steady energy and reliability that made every team better. * Adrienne Ramsay earned the Driven to Excel award for strengthening the processes the rest of us depend on. Four different roles. One shared thread: they make Octus better. 💫 #WeAreOctus #CoreAwards

When Debt Becomes Equity: Did Ardagh's high-stakes financial overhaul actually solve the core problem? The Ardagh Group's massive debt-for-equity recapitalization is largely complete, fundamentally reshaping its capital structure and injecting $1.5 billion in new money. Key Takeaways: • Equity Shift: The unsecured debt holders were the primary winners, receiving 92.5% of the new reorganized equity. • Valuation: The implied equity value for the company was calculated at $551.4 million. • The Glass Challenge: Despite projections for rising adjusted EBITDA through 2027, the core glass business may remain cash flow negative in the near term (before AMP dividends). With European legal disputes ongoing and persistent cash flow questions in the glass business, is this recapitalization a true fix, or just a bridge? ✍️ Credit Research by Jeremy Sherby, CFA. #DebtRestructuring #PackagingIndustry #LeveragedFinance

Earlier this month, the Octus Women’s Network (OWN) brought the NY office together for a night that felt real. Open. Easy to join. It welcomed the women in the group and anyone looking for a bit more connection at Octus. Teams opened mystery drawers. Found ingredients they didn’t expect. And with a little help from the chefs, everything turned into food people were proud to share. But the best moments weren’t on the plate. They were in the conversations. The laughter. The feeling that people actually had time for one another. A room that felt like belonging. OWN keeps building spaces like this. Small moments with a big impact. 💫 Thank you to everyone who came. Swipe to see the fun 👇 ✨
