GPGI stock gains 1.46 percent after London design center opens

GPGI stock was last at USD 13.17 on the NYSE on October 6, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. ET, up 1.46 percent from the prior close. The company opened a London design center on October 1, 2026, extending its reach among international issuers of premium metal payment cards, according to Valuespectrum.

London expands card design reach

The new facility gives banks, fintech companies and card partners in Europe, the Middle East and Asia access to design, testing and sampling support in one location. The company said the site is intended to shorten the path from concept to specification for metal card programs, making the expansion an operating initiative rather than a purely promotional move.

The London opening builds on GPGI's premium card business, where customer adoption is producing a sharper split between the two main operating units. That contrast is central to the investment case because growth at ComposeSecure is currently offsetting weaker demand at Husky.

Q2 results show a divided platform

In Q2 2026, GPGI reported pro forma adjusted net sales of USD 473.2 million, down 4 percent from the prior year, while pro forma adjusted EBITDA fell 13 percent to USD 113.9 million, according to Benzinga. The adjusted EBITDA margin was 24.1 percent, down 230 basis points year over year.

ComposeSecure delivered adjusted net sales of USD 133.6 million, up 12 percent, and adjusted EBITDA of USD 55.2 million, up 14 percent, in the same quarter, according to Benzinga. Its adjusted EBITDA margin reached 41.3 percent, 70 basis points above the prior-year level.

Husky moved in the opposite direction, with adjusted net sales of USD 339.6 million, down 9 percent, and adjusted EBITDA of USD 64.9 million, down 23 percent. Its adjusted EBITDA margin was 19.1 percent, 330 basis points lower than a year earlier, reflecting weaker demand, resin-price volatility, shipping disruption and tariff uncertainty.

Stock remains below yearly high

GPGI's October 6 price stood USD 13.61 below its 52-week high of USD 26.78 and USD 2.01 above its 52-week low of USD 11.16. Trading volume reached 1,486,202 shares, while market capitalization was USD 3.8 billion on the same date.

Management reiterated 2026 pro forma net sales guidance of USD 1.95 billion to USD 2.1 billion and adjusted EBITDA guidance of USD 550 million to USD 610 million, while setting adjusted EBITDA margin guidance at 27 percent to 29 percent, according to Benzinga. The numbers leave investors weighing a growing card business against the slower recovery expected at Husky.

GPGI was identified as a NYSE-listed company under ticker GPGI by Onvista.
