Factors Likely to Have Shaped AVY’s Q4 Performance
Avery Dennison’s fourth-quarter results are likely to reflect improved volumes in both its segments. However, higher raw material, labor and freight costs are expected to have impacted the company’s margins. The impacts are 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 5.2% year over year in the quarter to $1.55 billion. The upside will be driven by growth in the base business and high-value categories, led by specialty labels. Our estimate for the Materials Group segment’s adjusted operating profit is pinned at $237 million, indicating year-over-year growth of 8.9%.
Normalized growth in apparel is expected to have aided the Solutions Group segment's growth. Our model predicts the Solutions Group segment’s revenues to be $746 million, indicating an increase of 4.5% from the prior-year quarter’s actual.
Our estimate for the segment’s operating profit is pinned at $69.5 million, indicating a decrease of 14.4% from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure.
