A planned tie-up between paper and packaging giant Smurfit Kappa Group Plc and WestRock Co. of the US would result in the cancellation of the Dublin-based company’s premium listing on the London Stock Exchange. Smurfit Kappa has been a member of the exchange’s benchmark FTSE 100 Index since 2016.
It’s missed out on the hottest initial public offering of the year, with chip designer Arm Holdings Ltd. shunning its home market for a New York listing. Meanwhile, building materials company CRH Plc is due to move its main listing from London to New York this month and gambling firm Flutter Entertainment Plc is planning a secondary US listing in early 2024.
