Factors Likely to Have Shaped AVY’s Q4 Performance
Avery Dennison’s fourth-quarter results are likely to reflect improved volumes in both of its segments. However, higher raw material, labor and freight costs are expected to have impacted the company’s margins. This impact is anticipated to have been offset by AVY’s productivity improvement and cost-saving actions.
Our model predicts the Materials Group segment’s revenues to rise 4.2% year over year in the quarter to $1.48 billion. The growth will be aided by higher volumes of Label Materials. Notably, Label Materials accounts for around 74% of the segment’s revenues. Our prediction for the Materials Group segment’s adjusted operating profit is pinned at $231.5 million, indicating a year-over-year improvement of 16.7%.
Our model predicts the Solutions Group segment’s sales to be $734.8 million, indicating an increase of 6.2% from the prior-year quarter’s actual. Normalized growth in apparel will aid the segment’s growth. Also, Intelligent Labels adoption is increasing in new categories, which is expected to aid the segment’s results in the quarter.
The estimate for the segment’s operating profit is pinned at $74.1 million, indicating an increase of 16.7% from the year-ago quarter’s figure.
