WestRock Company (NYSE:WRK) will seek M&A. David Sewell Chief Executive Officer said during the Third Quarter Fiscal 2021 Results, "We will invest in our future through capital projects and tuck-in M&A opportunities that clearly align with our strategy and provide attractive returns on invested capital. And we will make opportunistic share repurchases to return value to shareholders. The significant progress we have made in reducing our leverage ratio provides additional optionality as we consider our capital allocation priorities going forward. We will be balanced in our approach, always seeking to maximize returns, while maintaining the financial strength and flexibility required to execute our strategy". "We'll continue to look at bolt-on acquisitions of independents that will continue to happen as we move forward".
