Exhibit 99.1

MEADWESTVACO CORPORATION

and Consolidated Subsidiary Companies

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Introduction

On January 8, 2015, MeadWestvaco Corporation (the “Company” or “MeadWestvaco”) issued a press release announcing a plan to separate its Specialty Chemicals business from the rest of the Company. On January 26, 2015, the Company announced it has entered into a Business Combination Agreement with Rock-Tenn Company to create a leading global provider of consumer and corrugated packaging (“TopCo”). The separation of the Specialty Chemicals business is expected to be executed by means of a tax-free spinoff to the shareholders of TopCo (the “Spinoff”). The Spinoff is expected to be completed by the end of 2015.

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements give effect to the Spinoff. The pro forma statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 are based on the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company giving effect to the Spinoff as if it had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented. The pro forma balance sheet as of December 31, 2014 is based on the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company giving effect to the Spinoff as if it had occurred on December 31, 2014.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements are based on the assumptions and adjustments described in the accompanying notes and do not reflect any adjustments for non-recurring items or changes in operating strategies arising as a result of the Spinoff. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements have been made.

The Pro Formas illustrate the financial characteristics of the Spinoff under one set of assumptions and do not purport to represent the results of operations and financial condition that actually would have been if the events described above occurred as of the dates indicated, or what such results of operations and financial condition would be for any future periods.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements, and the accompanying notes, should be read in conjunction with the Company’s historical consolidated financial statements and related note disclosures and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
