Avery Dennison Announces First Quarter 2012 Results
  • Reported EPS (including discontinued operations) of $0.41
  • Reported EPS from continuing operations of $0.44
    • Excluding impact of restructuring costs and other items, EPS from continuing operations of $0.45 (non-GAAP)
  • Net sales declined approximately 3 percent to $1.48 billion
    • Sales declined approximately 1 percent on organic basis
  • Repurchased 2.4 million shares
  • Maintaining 2012 EPS and free cash flow guidance

PASADENA, Calif., Apr 25, 2012 (BUSINESS WIRE) --Avery Dennison Corporation (NYSE:AVY) today announced preliminary, unaudited first quarter 2012 results. All non-GAAP financial measures referenced in this document are reconciled to GAAP in the attached tables. Unless otherwise indicated, the discussion of the company's results is focused on its continuing operations.

"As expected, first-quarter sales declined modestly on an organic basis, reflecting the slowdown in volume we began to experience in the second quarter of last year," said Dean Scarborough, Avery Dennison chairman, president and CEO.

"Despite the lower sales and impact of raw material inflation, we increased operating profit through productivity initiatives and pricing. We are delivering on our commitment to return more cash to our shareholders, through share repurchases and the increased dividend.

"For the full year, we expect to increase earnings per share and free cash flow in line with our previous guidance, and to continue returning more cash to shareholders while maintaining our strong balance sheet," Scarborough said.

For more details on the company's results, see the summary table accompanying this news release, as well as the company's supplemental presentation materials, "First Quarter 2012 Financial Review and Analysis," posted on the company's website at www.investors.averydennison.com, and furnished on Form 8-K with the SEC.

First Quarter 2012 Results by Segment

All references to sales reflect comparisons on an organic basis, which exclude the estimated impact of currency translation, acquisitions and divestitures.

Pressure-sensitive Materials (PSM)

  • Label and Packaging Materials sales were comparable to prior year as volume declines were offset by higher prices. Sales in Graphics and Reflective Solutions grew compared to prior year due to higher volume and pricing.
  • Operating margin improved 50 basis points to 8.8 percent due to productivity initiatives and pricing actions taken last year to offset higher raw material costs. Excluding costs associated with restructuring, operating margin improved by 40 basis points.

Retail Branding and Information Solutions (RBIS)

  • Consistent with recent trends, sales declined approximately 4 percent, reflecting lower unit demand from retailers and brands in the U.S. and Europe.
  • Operating margin declined 130 basis points to 2.0 percent as the impact of lower volume, as well as the effects of a prior year legal settlement and higher restructuring costs, were partially offset by the net benefit of productivity initiatives. Excluding costs associated with restructuring and other items, operating margin declined by 60 basis points.

Other specialty converting businesses

  • Sales increased modestly due to pricing, partially offset by lower volume.
  • Despite lower volume and higher costs associated with restructuring actions, operating margin improved 130 basis points to approximately break-even due to the benefit of pricing and productivity actions. Excluding costs associated with restructuring, operating margin improved by 280 basis points.

Other

The company repurchased 2.4 million shares during the first quarter at an aggregate cost of $72 million.

Results of Discontinued Operations

Due to the company's pending divestiture of its Office and Consumer Products business ("OCP"), earnings from OCP and certain costs associated with the transaction are reported as income or loss from discontinued operations (net of tax) in the consolidated income statement.

Earnings per share from discontinued operations declined from $0.07 to a loss of ($0.03). Excluding restructuring and transaction costs and other items, adjusted earnings per share from discontinued operations was unchanged.

The company continues to expect the sale of OCP to be completed in the second half of 2012.

Taxes

The first quarter effective tax rate was 29 percent. The adjusted tax rate for the first quarter increased from 24 to 34 percent, in line with expectations.

Cost Reduction Actions

In the first quarter, the company continued to reduce fixed costs through restructuring actions. The company estimates approximately $6 million in annualized savings from actions taken during the quarter, with approximately three-quarters of the benefit expected to be realized in 2012. The company incurred approximately $7 million in charges associated with these actions during the first quarter. The company continues to identify and assess further opportunities to increase productivity through restructuring.

Outlook

In the company's supplemental presentation materials, "First Quarter 2012 Financial Review and Analysis," the company provides a list of factors that it believes will contribute to its 2012 financial results. Based on the factors listed and other assumptions, the company is maintaining its previous guidance of 2012 earnings per share from continuing operations of $1.65 to $2.00 and free cash flow from continuing operations of $275 million to $325 million. Excluding an estimated $0.15 per share for restructuring costs and other items, the company expects adjusted (non-GAAP) earnings per share from continuing operations of $1.80 to $2.15.

Note: Throughout this release and the supplemental presentation materials, amounts on a per share basis reflect fully diluted shares outstanding.

These forward-looking statements and financial or other business targets are subject to certain risks and uncertainties.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures in Accordance with SEC Regulations G and S-K
Avery Dennison reports financial results in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, and herein provides some non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for, the comparable GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are intended to supplement the Company's presentation of its financial results that are prepared in accordance with GAAP. Based upon feedback from investors and financial analysts, the Company believes that supplemental non-GAAP financial measures provide information that is useful to the assessment of the Company's performance and operating trends, as well as liquidity.
The Company's 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 the underlying performance of the Company in a single period. By excluding certain accounting effects, both positive and negative, of certain items (e.g., restructuring costs, asset impairments, legal settlements, certain effects of strategic transactions and related costs, loss from debt extinguishments, loss from curtailment and settlement of pension obligations, gains or losses on sale of certain assets and other items), the Company believes that it is providing meaningful supplemental information to facilitate an understanding of the Company's core operating results and liquidity measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are used internally to evaluate trends in the Company's underlying business, as well as to facilitate comparison to the results of competitors for a single period. While some of the items excluded from GAAP financial measures may recur, they tend to be disparate in amount, frequency, and timing.
The Company uses the following non-GAAP financial measures in the accompanying news release and presentation:

Organic sales change refers to the increase or decrease in sales excluding the estimated impact of currency translation, acquisitions and divestitures;.

Adjusted operating margin refers to earnings before interest expense and taxes, excluding restructuring costs and other items, as a percentage of sales;

Adjusted tax rate refers to the anticipated full year GAAP tax rate adjusted for certain discrete events;

Adjusted EPS refers to as reported net income per common share, assuming dilution, adjusted for the tax-effected restructuring costs and other items; and
Free cash flow refers to cash flow from operations, less net payments for property, plant, and equipment, software and other deferred charges, plus (minus) net proceeds from sale (purchase) of investments. Free cash flow excludes mandatory debt service requirements and other uses of cash that do not directly or immediately support the underlying business (such as discretionary debt reductions, dividends, share repurchases, and certain effects of acquisitions and divestitures).
The reconciliation set forth below and in the accompanying presentation is provided in accordance with Regulations G and S-K and reconciles the non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
