Ardagh Group S.A. said a summary judge in Luxembourg’s district court lifted a restriction on Ardagh Holdings S.A., enabling renewed preparations for a sale of all or part of its Ardagh Metal Packaging interests.
The judge withdrew the order Oct. 14, and Ardagh announced the decision Oct. 15. The order followed an ex parte application by certain minority holders of senior secured toggle notes issued by ARD Finance S.A. and due in 2027.
ARD Finance S.A. had been a parent company of Ardagh Group until a recapitalization was completed in November 2025. Ardagh said the restriction’s withdrawal allows Ardagh Holdings to restart sale planning alongside its advisers.
Ardagh Metal Packaging is a supplier of metal beverage cans. It operates 23 production facilities in nine countries and reported $5.5 billion in sales in 2025, according to Ardagh.
