Latest source: 10-Q, reporting period ended 2026-06-30. Selected reported US-GAAP/USD comparisons. The period and basis of each measure are shown separately; year-to-date cash flow is not a quarterly figure. Missing comparisons are collection gaps, not evidence that a company has no revenue or earnings.
| Measure | Current | Prior year |
|---|---|---|
| Revenue from customer contracts ↗Quarter: 2026-04-01–2026-06-30; prior 2025-03-30–2025-06-28Both values reported in the current filing. Excludes assessed tax; this concept may exclude other company revenue. | $2,462.9m | $2,220.5m |
| Net income ↗Quarter: 2026-04-01–2026-06-30; prior 2025-03-30–2025-06-28Both values reported in the current filing. | $204.1m | $189m |
| Operating cash flow ↗Six months (year to date): 2026-01-01–2026-06-30; prior 2024-12-29–2025-06-28Both values reported in the current filing. Operating cash flow is not free cash flow or a standalone solvency assessment; inspect the full statement. | $544.7m | $192.5m |
Comparison caveat: The cash-flow increase reflects working-capital changes and lower incentive payments, partly offset by taxes. It is not a same-sized improvement in underlying earnings.
10-Q · latest checked financial statements and discussion ↗3. The investment debate
Latticework interpretation of the reported results—not the stated motives of any investor.
What could support the case
If its materials and converter relationships encourage intelligent-label adoption, Avery Dennison’s Materials Group could benefit from that stated strategy.
Supporting filing ↗The strongest caution
If trade restrictions affect raw materials, finished products or consumer demand, Avery Dennison’s business could be materially affected; indirect demand effects remain uncertain.
Caution evidence ↗An interesting business is not necessarily an attractive investment at today's price. Price, dilution, financing terms and a valuation range still need investigation.
Inspect the evidence behind both sides ↗4. Three questions worth investigating
Use these to guide your research, not as conclusions that have already been proved.
How exposed is demand to apparel and retail softness?
Starting evidence: The annual filing reports that indirect tariff effects reduced sales in apparel categories during the period described.
Investigate next: Review segment disclosures on apparel and RFID demand, and whether management describes the softness as continuing or easing.
Read the supporting filing ↗How much do foreign operations and currency swings matter?
Starting evidence: Most annual sales originated outside the United States, and international operations are exposed to economic, geopolitical and trade conditions.
Investigate next: Compare sales change excluding currency with reported change, and read regional commentary in later quarterly filings.
Read the supporting filing ↗Is the intelligent label opportunity translating into results?
Starting evidence: The Materials Group says it leverages its materials science and converter channel access to drive further adoption of intelligent labels.
Investigate next: Look for disclosures on RFID and digital identification sales, converter relationships and any adoption timing in the segment discussion.
