Ball Corp lands in Great Falls the week of the Wells Fargo conference circuit

Ball Corp flew from Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport in Westminster, Colorado, to Great Falls International Airport on the night of June 22, a short hop of 1 hour 41 minutes in its Global 6000, N400BC.

The same week, CEO Ron Lewis is scheduled to present at Wells Fargo's 16th Annual Industrials & Materials Conference in Chicago on June 10, per a conference notice published by MarketScreener. Lewis, a former Coca-Cola executive who joined Ball in 2019, will address the company's 2026 outlook, including its $800 million shareholder return target and the commissioning of a new can plant in Millersburg, Oregon, backed by a long-term customer offtake agreement.

The flight to Great Falls, a city near the company's Pacific Northwest supply chain operations, follows a pattern of regional visits: earlier this month, Ball Corp's aircraft shuttled between Denver and Chicago-area airports, and between Virginia and New York, consistent with the company's investor roadshow and board meeting schedule. The trip suggests Lewis is combining a conference appearance with a site visit to Ball's new manufacturing facility, which is set to begin production late this year.
