Certain statements contained in this report on Form 8-K and in Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 are forward-looking statements intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements, and financial or other business targets, are subject to certain risks and uncertainties. Actual results and trends may differ materially from historical or anticipated results depending on a variety of factors, including but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties relating to the following: fluctuations in demand affecting sales to customers; worldwide and local economic conditions; changes in political conditions; changes in governmental laws and regulations; fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and other risks associated with foreign operations, including in emerging markets; the financial condition and inventory strategies of customers; changes in the Companys markets due to competitive conditions, technological developments, laws and regulations, and customer preferences; fluctuations in cost and availability of raw materials; the Companys ability to generate sustained productivity improvement; the Companys ability to achieve and sustain targeted cost reductions; the impact of competitive products and pricing; loss of significant contracts or customers; collection of receivables from customers; selling prices; business mix shift; execution and integration of acquisitions; timely development and market acceptance of new products, including sustainable or sustainably-sourced products; investment in development activities and new production facilities; amounts of future dividends and share repurchases; customer and supplier concentrations; successful implementation of new manufacturing technologies and installation of manufacturing equipment; disruptions in information technology systems, including cyber-attacks or other intrusions to network security; successful installation of new or upgraded information technology systems; data security breaches; volatility of financial markets; impairment of capitalized assets, including goodwill and other intangibles; credit risks; the Companys ability to obtain adequate financing arrangements and maintain access to capital; fluctuations in interest and tax rates; changes in tax laws and regulations, including the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, and uncertainties associated with interpretations of such laws and regulations; outcome of tax audits; fluctuations in pension, insurance, and employee benefit costs; the impact of legal and regulatory proceedings, including with respect to environmental, health and safety; protection and infringement of intellectual property; the impact of epidemiological events on the economy and the Companys customers and suppliers; acts of war, terrorism, and natural disasters; and other factors.
The Company believes that the most significant risk factors that could affect its financial performance in the near-term include: (1) the impacts of global economic conditions and political uncertainty on underlying demand for the Companys products and foreign currency fluctuations; (2) the degree to which higher costs can be offset with productivity measures and/or passed on to customers through selling price increases, without a significant loss of volume; (3) competitors actions, including pricing, expansion in key markets, and product offerings; and (4) the execution and integration of acquisitions.
For a more detailed discussion of these and other factors, see Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors and Part II, Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition in the Companys 2018 Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2019.

GLENDALE, Calif., April 24, 2019 Avery Dennison Corporation (NYSE:AVY) today announced preliminary, unaudited results for its first quarter ended March 30, 2019. All non-GAAP financial measures referenced in this document are reconciled to GAAP in the attached tables. Unless otherwise indicated, comparisons are to the same period in the prior year.
Our Q1 performance was solid, given a challenging start to the year, with adjusted earnings in line with our expectations, said Mitch Butier, President and CEO.
In the Label and Graphic Materials segment, organic growth slowed, while profitability was solid. We expect organic growth and operating margin to improve through the course of the year. Retail Branding and Information Solutions continues to deliver, with another quarter of strong sales growth for RFID products, solid growth in the base business, and significant margin expansion. And, despite a modest organic sales decline, Industrial and Healthcare Materials delivered strong margin expansion through increased productivity.
We reaffirm our previous guidance for 2019 adjusted earnings per share, with organic growth improving over the balance of the year, along with continued margin expansion, added Butier. Our ongoing confidence in our ability to achieve our guidance and long-term targets reflects the resilience of our business and ability of our team to adapt under changing market conditions.
First Quarter 2019 Results by Segment
Label and Graphic Materials
· Reported sales declined 3.3 percent; on an organic basis, sales grew 1.4 percent, as prior year pricing actions more than offset a modest decline in volume/mix. On an organic basis, sales increased modestly in Label and Packaging Materials, and were up low-single digits in the combined Graphics and Reflective Solutions businesses.
· Reported operating margin decreased 50 basis points to 11.8 percent, reflecting higher employee-related costs, lower volume, and transition costs associated with the European restructuring plan. Adjusted operating margin also decreased 50 basis points to 12.5 percent.
Retail Branding and Information Solutions
· Reported sales increased 3.2 percent; on an organic basis, sales grew 7.0 percent driven by continued strength in radio frequency identification (RFID) solutions and solid growth in the base business.
· Reported operating margin increased 390 basis points to 12.9 percent, as a decline in restructuring charges, increased volume, and lower currency-related costs more than offset higher employee-related costs. Adjusted operating margin increased 220 basis points to 12.4 percent.
Industrial and Healthcare Materials
· Reported sales declined 5.1 percent; on an organic basis, sales declined by 1.0 percent. On an organic basis, sales in industrial categories were down low-single digits (up mid-single digits excluding products serving global automotive markets), while sales in healthcare categories were up low-single digits.
· Reported operating margin increased 80 basis points to 8.3 percent as the benefit of productivity actions more than offset the impacts of lower volume and higher restructuring charges. Adjusted operating margin increased 200 basis points to 9.5 percent.
Other
Share Repurchases / Equity Dilution
The company repurchased 0.9 million shares in the first quarter at an aggregate cost of $89 million. Net of dilution from long-term incentive awards, the companys share count decreased 0.4 million in the quarter. The cost of repurchases, net of proceeds from stock option exercises, was $83 million.
Income Taxes
The first quarter effective tax rate on the reported pre-tax loss was 48.7 percent, compared to 20.9 percent in the prior year, reflecting the tax impacts of the pension settlement charges associated with the termination of the U.S. pension plan. The adjusted tax rate for the quarter was 25 percent, consistent with the companys current expectation for its full year adjusted tax rate.
Cost Reduction Actions
In the first quarter, the company realized approximately $5 million in pretax savings from restructuring, net of transition costs, and incurred pretax restructuring charges of approximately $11 million, consisting almost entirely of cash costs related to severance.
U.S. Pension Plan Termination
On March 21, 2019, the company effectively settled its liabilities associated with its previously announced termination of the Avery Dennison Pension Plan (ADPP), a tax-qualified U.S. defined benefit plan, through the execution of an agreement to purchase annuities from American General Life Insurance Company (AGL), a subsidiary of American International Group, Inc. Under the agreement, the company settled approximately $750 million of pension obligations for approximately 8,500 active and former employees and their beneficiaries, with AGL assuming the future annuity payments for these individuals, commencing April 1, 2019. This settlement resulted in $447 million of pretax charges, partially offset by related tax benefits of $180 million, which the company recorded in March 2019.
The company contributed approximately $7 million of cash to the ADPP during the first quarter of 2019 to cover costs associated with the settlement of these liabilities.
Outlook
In its supplemental presentation materials, First Quarter 2019 Financial Review and Analysis, the company provides a list of factors that it believes will contribute to its 2019 financial results. Based on the factors listed and other assumptions, the company has increased its guidance for 2019 reported earnings per share to $3.10 to $3.35, reflecting lower-than-expected costs to settle its U.S. pension plan liabilities.
Excluding an estimated $3.35 per share related to pension settlement charges, restructuring charges and other items, the company continues to expect adjusted earnings per share of $6.45 to $6.70.
For more details on the companys results, see the summary tables accompanying this news release, as well as the supplemental presentation materials, First Quarter Financial Review and Analysis, posted on the companys website at www.investors.averydennison.com, and furnished to the SEC on Form 8-K.
Throughout this release and the supplemental presentation materials, amounts on a per share basis reflect fully diluted shares outstanding.
Sales change ex. currency refers to the increase or decrease in net sales excluding the estimated impact of foreign currency translation and currency adjustment for transitional reporting of highly inflationary economies (Argentina), with segment results adjusted for reclassification of sales between segments. The estimated impact of foreign currency translation is calculated on a constant currency basis, with prior period results translated at current period average exchange rates to exclude the effect of currency fluctuations. Organic sales change refers to sales change ex. currency, excluding the estimated impact of product line exits, acquisitions and divestitures, and, where applicable, the extra week in our fiscal year. Adjusted operating margin refers to income before taxes, interest expense, other non-operating expense, and other expense, net, as a percentage of net sales.

(a) |
Sales change ex. currency refers to the increase or decrease in net sales excluding the estimated impact of foreign currency translation and currency adjustment for transitional reporting of highly inflationary economies (Argentina), with segment results adjusted for the reclassification of sales between segments. The estimated impact of foreign currency translation is calculated on a constant currency basis, with prior period results translated at current period average exchange rates to exclude the effect of currency fluctuations. |
|
|
(b) |
Organic sales change refers to sales change ex. currency, excluding the estimated impact of product line exits, acquisitions and divestitures, and, where applicable, the extra week in our fiscal year. |
|
|
(c) |
Excludes impact of restructuring charges and other items. |
|
|
(d) |
As reported Other non-operating expense for the first quarters of 2019 and 2018 includes $446.9 and $.5, respectively, of pension plan settlements and related charges. |
|
|
(e) |
As reported (Benefit from) provision for income taxes for the first quarter of 2019 includes tax benefit of approximately $179.8 related to the termination of our U.S. pension plan. |
|
|
(f) |
Free cash flow refers to cash flow provided by operating activities, less payments for property, plant and equipment, software and other deferred charges, plus proceeds from sales of property, plant and equipment, plus (minus) net proceeds from insurance and sales (purchases) of investments. Free cash flow is also adjusted for the cash contributions related to the termination of our U.S. pension plan. |

In the first quarter of 2019, we adopted Accounting Standards Codification (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases. This ASU requires lessees to recognize the rights and obligations created by leases on their balance sheets. As allowed under this ASU, we have elected to apply the guidance using a modified retrospective approach, under which it applies to all leases that exist at or commence after the date of our initial application. As such, prior year comparative periods have not been restated.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP
We report our financial results in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, and also communicate with investors using certain non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for or superior to, the comparable GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are intended to supplement the presentation of our financial results that are prepared in accordance with GAAP. Based upon feedback from investors and financial analysts, we believe that the supplemental non-GAAP financial measures we provide are useful to their assessment of our performance and operating trends, as well as liquidity.
Our non-GAAP financial measures exclude the impact of certain events, activities or strategic decisions. The accounting effects of these events, activities or decisions, which are included in the GAAP financial measures, may make it difficult to assess our underlying performance in a single period. By excluding the accounting effects, both positive or negative, of certain items (e.g., restructuring charges, legal settlements, certain effects of strategic transactions and related costs, losses from debt extinguishments, gains or losses from curtailment or settlement of pension obligations, gains or losses on sales of certain assets, and other items), we believe that we are providing meaningful supplemental information that facilitates an understanding of our core operating results and liquidity measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are used internally to evaluate trends in our underlying performance, as well as to facilitate comparison to the results of competitors for a single period. While some of the items we exclude from GAAP financial measures recur, they tend to be disparate in amount, frequency, or timing.
We use the following non-GAAP financial measures in the accompanying news release and presentation:
Sales change ex. currency refers to the increase or decrease in net sales excluding the estimated impact of foreign currency translation and currency adjustment for transitional reporting of highly inflationary economies (Argentina), with segment results adjusted for the reclassification of sales between segments. The estimated impact of foreign currency translation is calculated on a constant currency basis, with prior period results translated at current period average exchange rates to exclude the effect of currency fluctuations.
Organic sales change refers to sales change ex. currency, excluding the estimated impact of product line exits, acquisitions and divestitures, and, where applicable, the extra week in our fiscal year.
We believe that sales change ex. currency and organic sales change assist investors in evaluating the sales change from the ongoing activities of our businesses and enhance their ability to evaluate our results from period to period.
Adjusted operating income refers to income before taxes, interest expense, other non-operating expense, and other expense, net.
Adjusted operating margin refers to adjusted operating income as a percentage of net sales.
Adjusted tax rate refers to the projected full-year GAAP tax rate, adjusted to exclude certain unusual or infrequent events that are expected to significantly impact that rate, such as impacts related to the enactment of the TCJA and our U.S. pension plan termination, effects of certain discrete tax planning actions, and other items.
Adjusted net income refers to income before taxes, tax-effected at the adjusted tax rate, and adjusted for tax-effected restructuring charges and other items.
Adjusted net income per common share, assuming dilution (adjusted EPS) refers to adjusted net income divided by weighted average number of common shares outstanding, assuming dilution.
We believe that adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, and adjusted EPS assist investors in understanding our core operating trends and comparing our results with those of our competitors.
Free cash flow refers to cash flow provided by operating activities, less payments for property, plant and equipment, software and other deferred charges, plus proceeds from sales of property, plant and equipment, plus (minus) net proceeds from insurance and sales (purchases) of investments. Free cash flow is also adjusted for the cash contributions related to the termination of our U.S. pension plan. We believe that free cash flow assists investors by showing the amount of cash we have available for debt reductions, dividends, share repurchases, and acquisitions.
The following reconciliations are provided in accordance with Regulations G and S-K and reconcile our non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Safe Harbor Statement Certain statements contained in this document are "forward-looking statements" intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements, and financial or other business targets, are subject to certain risks and uncertainties. Actual results and trends may differ materially from historical or anticipated results depending on a variety of factors, including but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties relating to the following: fluctuations in demand affecting sales to customers; worldwide and local economic conditions; changes in political conditions; changes in governmental laws and regulations; fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and other risks associated with foreign operations, including in emerging markets; the financial condition and inventory strategies of customers; changes in our markets due to competitive conditions, technological developments, laws and regulations, and customer preferences; fluctuations in cost and availability of raw materials; our ability to generate sustained productivity improvement; our ability to achieve and sustain targeted cost reductions; the impact of competitive products and pricing; loss of significant contracts or customers; collection of receivables from customers; selling prices; business mix shift; execution and integration of acquisitions; timely development and market acceptance of new products, including sustainable or sustainably-sourced products; investment in development activities and new production facilities; amounts of future dividends and share repurchases; customer and supplier concentrations; successful implementation of new manufacturing technologies and installation of manufacturing equipment; disruptions in information technology systems, including cyber-attacks or other intrusions to network security; successful installation of new or upgraded information technology systems; data security breaches; volatility of financial markets; impairment of capitalized assets, including goodwill and other intangibles; credit risks; our ability to obtain adequate financing arrangements and maintain access to capital; fluctuations in interest and tax rates; changes in tax laws and regulations, including the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), and uncertainties associated with interpretations of such laws and regulations; outcome of tax audits; fluctuations in pension, insurance, and employee benefit costs; the impact of legal and regulatory proceedings, including with respect to environmental, health and safety; protection and infringement of intellectual property; the impact of epidemiological events on the economy and our customers and suppliers; acts of war, terrorism, and natural disasters; and other factors. We believe that the most significant risk factors that could affect our financial performance in the near-term include: (1) the impacts of global economic conditions and political uncertainty on underlying demand for our products and foreign currency fluctuations; (2) the degree to which higher costs can be offset with productivity measures and/or passed on to customers through selling price increases, without a significant loss of volume; (3) competitors' actions, including pricing, expansion in key markets, and product offerings; and (4) the execution and integration of acquisitions. For a more detailed discussion of these and other factors, see Risk Factors and Managements Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition in our 2018 Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2019. The forward-looking statements included in this document are made only as of the date of this document, and we undertake no obligation to update these statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances, other than as may be required by law.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC rules. We report our financial results in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, and also communicate with investors using certain non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for or superior to, the comparable GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are intended to supplement presentation of our financial results that are prepared in accordance with GAAP. Based upon feedback from investors and financial analysts, we believe that the supplemental non-GAAP financial measures we provide are useful to their assessment of our performance and operating trends, as well as liquidity. In accordance with Regulations G and S-K, reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, including limitations associated with these non-GAAP financial measures, are provided in the financial schedules accompanying the earnings news release for the quarter (see Attachments A-4 through A-7 to news release dated April 24, 2019). Our non-GAAP financial measures exclude the impact of certain events, activities or strategic decisions. The accounting effects of these events, activities or decisions, which are included in the GAAP financial measures, may make it difficult to assess our underlying performance in a single period. By excluding the accounting effects, both positive or negative, of certain items (e.g., restructuring charges, legal settlements, certain effects of strategic transactions and related costs, losses from debt extinguishments, gains or losses from curtailment or settlement of pension obligations, gains or losses on sales of certain assets, and other items), we believe that we are providing meaningful supplemental information that facilitates an understanding of our core operating results and liquidity measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are used internally to evaluate trends in our underlying performance, as well as to facilitate comparison to the results of competitors for a single period. While some of the items we exclude from GAAP financial measures recur, they tend to be disparate in amount, frequency, or timing. We use the following non-GAAP financial measures in this presentation: Sales change ex. currency refers to the increase or decrease in net sales excluding the estimated impact of foreign currency translation and currency adjustment for transitional reporting of highly inflationary economies (Argentina), with segment results adjusted for the reclassification of sales between segments. The estimated impact of foreign currency translation is calculated on a constant currency basis, with prior period results translated at current period average exchange rates to exclude the effect of currency fluctuations. Organic sales change refers to sales change ex. currency, excluding the estimated impact of product line exits, acquisitions and divestitures, and, where applicable, the extra week in our fiscal year. We believe that sales change ex. currency and organic sales change assist investors in evaluating the sales change from the ongoing activities of our businesses and enhance their ability to evaluate our results from period to period. Adjusted operating income refers to income before taxes, interest expense, other non-operating expense, and other expense, net. Adjusted operating margin refers to adjusted operating income as a percentage of net sales. Adjusted tax rate refers to the projected full-year GAAP tax rate, adjusted to exclude certain unusual or infrequent events that are expected to significantly impact that rate, such as impacts related to the enactment of the TCJA and our U.S. pension plan termination, effects of certain discrete tax planning actions, and other items. Adjusted net income refers to income before taxes, tax-effected at the adjusted tax rate, and adjusted for tax-effected restructuring charges and other items. Adjusted net income per common share, assuming dilution (adjusted EPS) refers to adjusted net income divided by weighted average number of common shares outstanding, assuming dilution. We believe that adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, and adjusted EPS assist investors in understanding our core operating trends and comparing our results with those of our competitors. Free cash flow refers to cash flow provided by operating activities, less payments for property, plant and equipment, software and other deferred charges, plus proceeds from sales of property, plant and equipment, plus (minus) net proceeds from insurance and sales (purchases) of investments. Free cash flow is also adjusted for the cash contributions related to the termination of our U.S. pension plan. We believe that free cash flow assists investors by showing the amount of cash we have available for debt reductions, dividends, share repurchases, and acquisitions. This document has been furnished (not filed) on Form 8-K with the SEC and may be found on our website at www.investors.averydennison.com.
