Last earnings call, Jul 30, 2026 AI summary
- What they said
- AVY delivered strong Q2 2026 results with organic sales growth of 8% YoY, adjusted EPS up 19%, and adjusted free cash flow exceeding $360 million. Materials Group drove ~10% organic growth with EBITDA margins expanding in the high teens. Solutions Group grew 3% organically with strong EBITDA margin expansion. Performance was partially aided by customer inventory pre-buying, particularly in Label Materials.
- Guidance
- Management anticipates the majority of customer inventory pre-buy unwind occurring in Q3, with smaller carryover into Q4. Intelligent Labels growth expected to continue in 2026. Geopolitical uncertainty makes timing of inventory normalization difficult to predict precisely.
