		<description><![CDATA[MeadWestvaco Corporation (MWV) moves closer to the completion of its merger with ACCO Brands Corporation (ABD). Shareholders of ACCO Brands have given a go-ahead for the issue of common stock required for the completion of the merger. The new share issues will be traded from April 24, 2012 in the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) with the ticker symbol of “ACCO wi”. Both the companies are hopeful about the completion of the merger before the market opens on May 1, 2012. The merger, however, will be conditional on several stipulations.  One such prerequisite is that from that day onwards, ACCO Brands will change its ticker symbol from ABD to ACCO. It was in November 2011 that MeadWestvaco announced its decision to spin-off its Consumer and Office Products Business into a ]]></description>

(MMM), the maker of Post-it notes and Scotch Tape, for $550 million in cash. The Office and Consumer Products segment contributed approximately 13% to Avery’s total revenue in fiscal 2010 and in the most recently reported third quarter of 2011. The segment manufactures and sells a wide range of office and printable media products under the Avery brand name for office, school and home uses. The segment also offers an array of stationery products, including writing instruments, markers, adhesives and specialty products under popular brand names such as Avery, Marks-A-Lot and HI-LITER. This is a long-struggling segment of Avery with weak end market demand, facing cutthroat competition in the label category. Margins have ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bemis Company (BMS) reported third-quarter EPS of $0.56, a penny below the year-ago quarter and missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 2 cents. Rising raw materials prices have significantly impacted the company, putting downward pressure on its margins. Nearly 35% of its total revenues last year came from its business outside the United States. Recent instability in the global markets and foreign exchange rates may hinder its revenue generation and other financial results. Further, lower volume levels remain a point of concern. Thus, we reiterate our Underperform recommendation with a target price of $25.00. BEMIS (BMS): Free Stock Analysis Report Zacks Investment Research]]></description>

Earnings per share in the quarter dropped 6% from the EPS of 36 cents in the year-ago quarter. Sealed Air’s results were impacted by an unfavorable spread between selling prices and raw material and other energy-based costs in the quarter and an adverse year-over-year comparison in other (expense) income due to foreign exchange losses and gains. During the quarter, the company’s adjusted and reported EPS were the same. The company recorded a restructuring charge of 1 cent per share related to its Global Manufacturing Strategy (GMS) in the prior-year quarter, resulting in a GAAP EPS of 35 cents.

Earnings growth in the quarter was driven by higher sales in the Flexible Packaging segment, favorable currency translation impact and successful cost controls by the company, which were partially offset by financing impact of the pending Alcan acquisition. Quarterly sales increased 4.4% year over year to $905.9 million. The second quarter acquisition of the South American rigid packaging operations of Huhtamaki Oyj contributed 3% to the third quarter sales, while a favorable currency translation effect increased the sales by 6.8%. These positive contributions were partially offset by a decline in selling prices in the Flexible Packaging business and lower sales of graphics and technical products.
