Safe Harbor Statement

This Quarterly Report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements, which are not statements of historical fact, contain estimates, assumptions, projections and/or expectations regarding future events that may or may not occur. Words such as “aim,” “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “foresee,” “guidance,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “objective,” “plan,” “potential,” “project,” “seek,” “shall,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would,” or variations thereof, and other expressions that refer to future events and trends, identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements, as well as financial or other business goals or targets, are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, which could cause our actual results to differ materially from the expected results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

We believe that the most significant risk factors that could affect our financial performance in the near term include: (i) the impacts to underlying demand for our products from global economic conditions, political uncertainty and changes in environmental standards and governmental regulations; (ii) the cost and availability of raw materials; (iii) competitors’ actions, including pricing, expansion in key markets and product offerings; (iv) the degree to which higher costs can be offset with productivity measures and/or passed on to customers through price increases, without a significant loss of volume; (v) foreign currency fluctuations; and (vi) the execution and integration of acquisitions.

The more significant risks and uncertainties that may impact us are discussed in more detail under “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 22, 2023. Actual results and trends may differ materially from historical or anticipated results depending on a variety of factors, including but not limited to, risks and uncertainties related to the following:

•International Operations – worldwide and local economic and market conditions; changes in political conditions, including those related to China and those related to the Russian invasion of Ukraine; and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and other risks associated with foreign operations, including in emerging markets

•Our Business – fluctuations in demand affecting sales to customers; fluctuations in the cost and availability of raw materials and energy; changes in our markets due to competitive conditions, technological developments, environmental standards, laws and regulations, and customer preferences; the impact of competitive products and pricing; execution and integration of acquisitions; selling prices; customer and supplier concentrations or consolidations; financial condition of distributors; outsourced manufacturers; product and service quality; timely development and market acceptance of new products, including sustainable or sustainably-sourced products; investment in development activities and new production facilities; successful implementation of new manufacturing technologies and installation of manufacturing equipment; our ability to generate sustained productivity improvement; our ability to achieve and sustain targeted cost reductions; collection of receivables from customers; and our environmental, social and governance practices

•Income Taxes – fluctuations in tax rates; changes in tax laws and regulations, and uncertainties associated with interpretations of such laws and regulations; retention of tax incentives; outcome of tax audits; and the realization of deferred tax assets

•Information Technology – disruptions in information technology systems or data security breaches, including cyber-attacks or other intrusions to network security; and successful installation of new or upgraded information technology systems

•Human Capital – recruitment and retention of employees and collective labor arrangements

•Our Indebtedness – credit risks; our ability to obtain adequate financing arrangements and maintain access to capital; fluctuations in interest rates; volatility of financial markets; and compliance with our debt covenants

•Ownership of Our Stock – potential significant variability of our stock price and amounts of future dividends and share repurchases

•Legal and Regulatory Matters – protection and infringement of intellectual property; impact of legal and regulatory proceedings, including with respect to environmental, anti-corruption, health and safety, and trade compliance

•Other Financial Matters – fluctuations in pension costs and goodwill impairment

Our forward-looking statements are made only as of the date of this Form 10-Q. We assume no duty to update these forward-looking statements to reflect new, changed or unanticipated events or circumstances, other than as may be required by law.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. General

The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are presented as permitted by Article 10 of Regulation S-X and do not contain certain information included in the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which should be read in conjunction with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of our interim results. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of future results. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect our current estimates and assumptions affecting (i) our reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures as of the date of the financial statements and (ii) our reported amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting periods presented.

Fiscal Periods

The three months ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022 each consisted of a thirteen-week period.

Accounting Guidance Update

Supplier Finance Programs

In the first quarter of 2023, we adopted accounting guidance to enhance the transparency of supplier finance programs to allow financial statement users to understand the programs' nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period and potential magnitude. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, except for the provision on roll-forward information, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. See Note 13, “Supplemental Financial Information,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Note 2. Acquisitions

Subsequent to the end of the first quarter of 2023, in April 2023, we entered into an agreement to acquire LG Group, Inc. ("Lion Brothers"), a Maryland-based designer and manufacturer of apparel brand embellishments. We believe this acquisition will expand the product portfolio in our Solutions Group reportable segment. We expect to complete this acquisition in the second quarter of 2023.

On March 6, 2023, we completed our business acquisition of Thermopatch, Inc. ("Thermopatch"), a New York-based manufacturer specializing in labeling, embellishments and transfers for the sports, industrial laundry, workwear and hospitality industries. We believe this acquisition will expand the product portfolio in our Solutions Group reportable segment. The purchase consideration for this acquisition was approximately $44 million, which we funded using cash and commercial paper borrowings.

The final allocation of Thermopatch purchase consideration to assets and liabilities is ongoing as we continue to evaluate certain balances, estimates and assumptions during the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). Consistent with the allowable time to complete our assessment, the valuation of certain acquired assets and liabilities, including tangible and intangible assets, environmental liabilities and income taxes, is currently pending finalization.

The Thermopatch acquisition was not material to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 3. Goodwill and Other Intangibles Resulting from Business Acquisitions

Changes in the net carrying amount of goodwill for the three months ended April 1, 2023 by reportable segment are shown below.

(In millions)	Materials Group		Solutions Group		Total
Goodwill as of December 31, 2022	$	618.7	$	1,243.7	$	1,862.4
Acquisitions(1)	—		16.8		16.8
Translation adjustments	7.8		.5		8.3
Goodwill as of April 1, 2023	$	626.5	$	1,261.0	$	1,887.5

(1) Goodwill acquired related to the acquisition of Thermopatch. We expect the recognized goodwill related to this acquisition to be partially deductible for income tax purposes.

In connection with the Thermopatch acquisition, we acquired approximately $11 million of identifiable finite-lived intangible assets, which consisted of customer relationships and trade names and trademarks.

Amortization expense for all finite-lived intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions was $20.5 million for both the three months ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022.

Avery Dennison Corporation

Estimated future amortization expense related to existing finite-lived intangible assets for the remainder of fiscal year 2023 and for each of the next four fiscal years and thereafter is shown below. These amounts include the effects of the acquisition of Thermopatch.

(In millions)	Estimated Amortization Expense
2023 (remainder of year)	$	61.5
2024	80.5
2025	79.7
2026	76.8
2027	71.5
2028 and thereafter	308.1

Note 4. Debt

In March 2023, we issued $400 million of senior notes, due March 15, 2033, which bear an interest rate of 5.750% per year, payable semiannually in arrears. Our net proceeds from this issuance, after deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses, were $394.9 million, which we used to repay both existing indebtedness under our commercial paper programs and the $250 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes that matured on April 15, 2023.

The estimated fair value of our long-term debt is primarily based on the credit spread above U.S. Treasury securities or euro government bond securities, as applicable, on notes with similar rates, credit ratings and remaining maturities. The fair value of short-term borrowings, which include commercial paper issuances and short-term lines of credit, approximates their carrying value given the short duration of these obligations. The fair value of our total debt was $3.35 billion at April 1, 2023 and $2.85 billion at December 31, 2022. Fair values were determined based primarily on Level 2 inputs, which are inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable.

In January 2023, we extended the maturity date of our revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) by one year to February 13, 2026 and increased the commitments by $400 million, from $800 million to $1.20 billion. Additionally, we amended the Revolver to replace the LIBOR benchmark interest rate with Term SOFR, Euribor and SONIA benchmark interest rates. The Revolver contains a financial covenant requiring that we maintain a specified ratio of total debt in relation to a certain measure of income. As of both April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we were in compliance with this financial covenant. No balance was outstanding under the Revolver as of April 1, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

Note 5. Cost Reduction Actions

2023 Actions

During the three months ended April 1, 2023, we recorded $18.6 million in restructuring charges related to our 2023 actions. These charges consisted of severance and related costs for the reduction of approximately 340 positions at numerous locations across our company. These actions, which were primarily taken in our Materials Group reportable segment, largely related to headcount reductions.

During the three months ended April 1, 2023, restructuring charges and payments were as follows:

(In millions)	Accrual at December 31, 2022		Charges, Net of Reversals		Cash Payments		Non-cash Impairment		Foreign Currency Translation		Accrual at April 1, 2023
2023 Actions
Severance and related costs	$	—	$	18.1	$	(7.2)	$	—	$	—	$	10.9
Asset impairment charges	—		.5		—		(.5)		—		—
2019/2020 Actions
Severance and related costs	5.1		(1.0)		(3.9)		—		—		.2
Total	$	5.1	$	17.6	$	(11.1)	$	(.5)	$	—	$	11.1

Accruals for severance and related costs, as well as lease cancellation costs, were included in “Other current liabilities” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Asset impairment charges were based on the estimated market value of the assets, less selling costs, if applicable. Restructuring charges were included in “Other expense (income), net” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

The table below shows the total amount of restructuring charges, net of reversals, incurred by reportable segment and Corporate.

	Three Months Ended
(In millions)	April 1, 2023		April 2, 2022
Restructuring charges, net of reversals, by reportable segment and Corporate
Materials Group	$	14.3	$	.5
Solutions Group	3.4		.4
Corporate	(.1)		—
Total	$	17.6	$	.9

Note 6. Financial Instruments

We enter into foreign exchange hedge contracts to reduce our risk from foreign exchange rate fluctuations associated with receivables, payables, loans and firm commitments denominated in certain foreign currencies that arise primarily as a result of our operations outside the U.S. We also enter into futures contracts to hedge certain price fluctuations for a portion of our anticipated domestic purchases of natural gas. The impact of these foreign exchange and commodities hedge activities on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements was not material.

In March 2020, we entered into U.S. dollar to euro cross-currency swap contracts with a total notional amount of $250 million to have the effect of converting the fixed-rate U.S. dollar-denominated debt to euro-denominated debt, including semiannual interest payments and the payment of principal at maturity. During the term of the contract, which ends on April 30, 2030, we pay fixed-rate interest in euros and receive fixed-rate interest in U.S. dollars. These contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges. The fair value of these contracts was $14.2 million and $15.5 million as of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, which was included in "Other Assets" in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to Note 10, “Fair Value Measurements,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

We recorded no ineffectiveness from our cross-currency swap to earnings during the three months ended April 1, 2023 or April 2, 2022.

Note 7. Taxes Based on Income

The following table summarizes our income before taxes, provision for income taxes, and effective tax rate:

	Three Months Ended
(Dollars in millions)	April 1, 2023			April 2, 2022
Income before taxes	$	168.3		$	269.7
Provision for income taxes	47.1			71.5
Effective tax rate	28.0		%	26.5		%

Our provision for income taxes for the three months ended April 1, 2023 included a net tax charge related to the tax on global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) of our foreign subsidiaries after benefiting from the current year exclusion election as well as the recognition of foreign withholding taxes on current year earnings, partially offset by the benefit from foreign-derived intangible income (“FDII”). Our provision for income taxes for the three months ended April 1, 2023 was also adversely affected by higher non-deductible expenses primarily driven by foreign currency and interest rate fluctuations, as well as lower tax incentives in certain foreign jurisdictions.

In 2020, the U.S. Department of Treasury issued final regulations that provide certain U.S. taxpayers with an annual election to exclude certain foreign income subject to a high effective tax rate from their GILTI inclusions. We reflected the benefit related to a GILTI exclusion election we plan to make for tax year 2023, but we have yet to determine whether to make the election for tax year 2022. We continue to evaluate the impact of the election and currently anticipate that the benefit from making this election on our 2022 U.S. federal tax return may be significant.

Our provision for income taxes for the three months ended April 2, 2022 included $6.6 million of net tax charge related to the tax on GILTI of our foreign subsidiaries and the recognition of foreign withholding taxes on current year earnings, partially offset by the benefit from FDII.

The amount of income taxes we pay is subject to ongoing audits by taxing jurisdictions around the world. Our estimate of the potential outcome of any uncertain tax issue is subject to our assessment of the relevant risks, facts and circumstances existing at the time. We believe that we have adequately provided for reasonably foreseeable outcomes related to these matters. However, our future results may include favorable or unfavorable adjustments to our estimated tax liabilities in the period the assessments are made or resolved, which

8

Avery Dennison Corporation

may impact our effective tax rate. The final determination of tax audits and any related legal proceedings could materially differ from the amounts currently reflected in our tax provision for income taxes and the related liabilities. To date, we and our U.S. subsidiaries have completed the Internal Revenue Service's Compliance Assurance Process through 2018. With limited exceptions, we are no longer subject to income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2010.

It is reasonably possible that, during the next 12 months, we may realize a net decrease in our uncertain tax positions, including interest and penalties, of approximately $7 million, primarily as a result of closing tax years.

Note 8. Net Income Per Common Share

Net income per common share was computed as follows:

	Three Months Ended
(In millions, except per share amounts)	April 1, 2023		April 2, 2022
(A)Net income	$	121.2	$	198.2
(B)Weighted average number of common shares outstanding	80.9		82.4
Dilutive shares (additional common shares issuable under stock-based awards)	.6		.6
(C) Weighted average number of common shares outstanding, assuming dilution	81.5		83.0
Net income per common share: (A) ÷ (B)	$	1.50	$	2.41
Net income per common share, assuming dilution: (A) ÷ (C)	$	1.49	$	2.39

Certain stock-based compensation awards were excluded from the computation of net income per common share, assuming dilution, because they would not have had a dilutive effect. Stock-based compensation awards excluded from this computation were not significant for the three months ended April 1, 2023 or April 2, 2022.

Investments include fixed income securities (primarily U.S. government and corporate debt securities) measured at fair value using quoted prices/bids and a money market fund measured at fair value using net asset value. As of April 1, 2023, investments of $1.1 million and $35.2 million were included in “Cash and cash equivalents” and “Other current assets,” respectively, in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2022, investments of $0.7 million and $30.6 million were included in “Cash and cash equivalents” and “Other current assets,” respectively, in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Derivatives that are exchange-traded are measured at fair value using quoted market prices and classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Derivatives measured based on foreign exchange rate inputs that are readily available in public markets are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. Bank drafts (maturities greater than three months) are valued at face value due to their short-term nature and were included in “Other current assets” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Contingent consideration liabilities relate to estimated earn-out payments associated with certain acquisitions completed in 2022 and 2021, which are subject to the respective acquired company achieving certain post-acquisition performance targets. These liabilities were recorded based on the expected payments as of April 1, 2023 and have been classified as Level 3.

In addition to the items described above, we also have made venture investments in privately held companies and utilize the measurement alternative for equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values, measuring them at cost less impairment plus or minus observable price changes in orderly transactions. We recognized no net gains on these investments in the three months ended April 1, 2023. We recognized net gains on these investments of $3.7 million in the three months ended April 2, 2022 in “Other expense (income), net” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Income Statements. The total carrying value of our venture investments was approximately $71 million and $70 million as of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and included in “Other assets” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

We are involved in various lawsuits, claims, inquiries and other regulatory and compliance matters, most of which are routine to the nature of our business. When it is probable that a loss will be incurred and where a range of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the best estimate within the range is accrued. When the best estimate within the range cannot be determined, the low end of the range is accrued. The ultimate resolution of these claims could affect future results of operations should our exposure be materially different from our estimates or should we incur liabilities that were not previously accrued. Potential insurance reimbursements are not offset against potential liabilities.

We are currently party to a litigation in which ADASA Inc. (“Adasa”), an unrelated third party, alleged that certain of our RFID products infringed its patent. The case was filed on October 24, 2017 in the United States District Court in the District of Oregon (Eugene Division) and is captioned ADASA Inc. v. Avery Dennison Corporation. We recorded a contingent liability in the amount of $26.6 million related to this matter in the second quarter of 2021 based on a jury verdict issued on May 14, 2021.

During the fourth quarter of 2021, the first instance judgment associated with the jury verdict was issued. This resulted in additional potential liability for the RFID tags sold during the period from the jury verdict to the issuance of the first instance judgment and a royalty on additional late-disclosed tags, as well as sanctions, prejudgment interest, costs, and attorneys’ fees. In addition, Adasa was awarded an ongoing royalty on in-scope tags sold after October 14, 2021. On October 22, 2021, we appealed the judgment to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ("CAFC").

During the fourth quarter of 2022, the CAFC issued its opinion, reversing the grant of summary judgment of validity as to anticipation and obviousness, vacating the sanctions ruling, and remanding the case for retrial. The CAFC affirmed subject-matter eligibility and

12

Avery Dennison Corporation

damages if liability is determined in the retrial. On remand, the trial court must reconsider the amount of sanctions consistent with the CAFC's instruction to limit sanctions to the late-disclosed tags. With continued evaluation of the matter and our defenses, as well as consultation with our outside counsel, we continue to believe that Adasa’s patent is invalid and that the sanctions are unreasonable. In addition, we believe that there are appealable grounds in the CAFC’s decision; as a result, we sought U.S. Supreme Court review on February 27, 2023. The retrial at the trial court is currently scheduled to begin on July 10, 2023. As of April 1, 2023, we continue to evaluate our options and estimate a range of potential outcomes between approximately $5 million to $71 million. Based on our assessment, we concluded that the current reserve of $26.6 million is representative of the estimated liability taking into consideration the potential outcomes; as such, we did not record a change to the accrued liability. We have largely completed our migration to alternative encoding methods for our RFID tags.

Because of the uncertainties associated with claims resolution and litigation, future expenses to resolve these matters could be higher than the liabilities we have accrued; however, we are unable to reasonably estimate a range of potential expenses. If information were to become available that allowed us to reasonably estimate a range of potential expenses determined to be probable in an amount higher or lower than what we have accrued and determined such to be probable, we would adjust our accrued liabilities accordingly. Additional lawsuits, claims, inquiries and other regulatory and compliance matters could arise in the future. The range of expenses for resolving any future matters would be assessed as they arise; until then, a range of potential expenses for such resolution cannot be determined. Based upon current information, we believe that the impact of the resolution of these matters would not be, individually or in the aggregate, material to our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Environmental Expenditures

Environmental expenditures are generally expensed. When it is probable that a loss will be incurred and where a range of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the best estimate within the range is accrued. When the best estimate within the range cannot be determined, the low end of the range is accrued. The ultimate resolution of these matters could affect future results of operations should our exposure be materially different from our estimates or should we incur liabilities that were not previously accrued. Potential insurance reimbursements are not offset against potential liabilities. We review our estimates of the costs of complying with environmental laws related to remediation and cleanup of various sites, including sites in which governmental agencies have designated us as a potentially responsible party (“PRP”). However, environmental expenditures for newly acquired assets and those that extend or improve the economic useful life of existing assets are capitalized and amortized over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the acquired asset or the remaining life of the existing asset.

As of April 1, 2023, we have been designated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and/or other responsible state agencies as a PRP at eleven waste disposal or waste recycling sites that are the subject of separate investigations or proceedings concerning alleged soil and/or groundwater contamination. No settlement of our liability related to any of these sites has been agreed upon. We are participating with other PRPs at these sites and anticipate that our share of remediation costs will be determined pursuant to agreements that we negotiate with the EPA or other governmental authorities.

These estimates could change as a result of changes in planned remedial actions, remediation technologies, site conditions, the estimated time to complete remediation, environmental laws and regulations, and other factors. Because of the uncertainties associated with environmental assessment and remediation activities, our future expenses to remediate these sites could be higher than the liabilities we have accrued; however, we are unable to reasonably estimate a range of potential expenses determined to be probable. If information were to become available that allowed us to reasonably estimate a range of potential expenses in an amount higher or lower than what we have accrued, we would adjust our environmental liabilities accordingly. In addition, we may be identified as a PRP at additional sites in the future. The range of expenses for remediation of any future-identified sites would be addressed as they arise; until then, a range of expenses for such remediation cannot be determined.

The activity related to our environmental liabilities for the three months ended April 1, 2023 is shown below.

Supplier Finance Programs

We have agreements with third-party financial institutions to facilitate payments to suppliers. These third-party financial institutions offer voluntary supply chain finance programs that enable certain of our suppliers, at the supplier’s sole discretion, to sell our payment obligations to a financial institution on terms directly negotiated with the financial institution. Participating suppliers decide which payment obligations are sold to the financial institution and we have no economic interest in a supplier’s decision to sell these payment obligations. We make payments to the financial institution on the invoice due date, regardless of whether an individual invoice is sold by the supplier to the financial institution. Our obligations to our suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment dates, are not impacted by suppliers' decisions to sell amounts under these arrangements. Amounts due under our supply chain finance programs are included in accounts payable on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and activities related to these programs are presented as operating activities in our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. As of April 1, 2023 and December

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, or MD&A, provides management’s views on our financial condition and results of operations and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

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 prepared in accordance with GAAP. Based on feedback from investors and financial analysts, we believe that the supplemental non-GAAP financial measures we provide are useful to their assessments 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 more difficult to assess our underlying performance in a single period. By excluding the accounting effects, positive or negative, of certain items (e.g., restructuring charges, outcomes of certain legal proceedings, 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, gains or losses on venture investments and other items), we believe that we are providing meaningful supplemental information that facilitates an understanding of our core operating results and liquidity measures. While some of the items we exclude from GAAP financial measures recur, they tend to be disparate in amount, frequency or timing.

We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally to evaluate trends in our underlying performance, as well as to facilitate comparison to the results of competitors for quarters and year-to-date periods, as applicable.

We use the non-GAAP financial measures described below in this MD&A.

•Sales change ex. currency refers to the increase or decrease in net sales, excluding the estimated impact of foreign currency translation and the reclassification of sales between segments, and, where applicable, an extra week in our fiscal year and the calendar shift resulting from the extra week in the prior fiscal year, and currency adjustment for transitional reporting of highly inflationary economies. 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 acquisitions and product line divestitures.

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.

•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, where applicable, certain acquisition-related transaction costs. 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.

•Operational working capital as a percentage of annualized current quarter net sales refers to trade accounts receivable and inventories, net of accounts payable, and excludes cash and cash equivalents, short-term borrowings, deferred taxes, other current assets and other current liabilities, as well as net current assets or liabilities held-for-sale divided by annualized current quarter net sales. We believe that operational working capital as a percentage of annualized current quarter net sales assists investors in assessing our working capital requirements because it excludes the impact of fluctuations attributable to our financing and other activities (which affect cash and cash equivalents, deferred taxes, other current assets and other current liabilities) that tend to be disparate in amount, frequency or timing, and may increase the volatility of working capital as a percentage of sales from period to period. The items excluded from this measure are not significantly influenced by our day-to-day activities managed at the operating level and do not necessarily reflect the underlying trends in our operations.

OVERVIEW AND OUTLOOK

Net Sales

The factors impacting reported net sales change, as compared to the prior-year period, are shown in the table below.

	Three Months Ended April 1, 2023
Reported net sales change	(12)	%
Foreign currency translation	3
Sales change ex. currency(1)	(9)
Acquisitions	—
Organic sales change(1)	(9)	%

(1) Totals may not sum due to rounding

In the three months ended April 1, 2023, net sales decreased on an organic basis compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to lower sales volume, partially offset by pricing actions.

Net Income

Net income decreased from approximately $198 million in the first three months of 2022 to approximately $121 million in the first three months of 2023. Major factors affecting the change in net income included the following:

•Lower sales volume driven by inventory destocking

•Higher restructuring charges

•Unfavorable foreign currency translation

Offsetting factors:

•The net benefit of pricing and raw material costs

•Benefits from productivity initiatives, including material re-engineering and savings from restructuring actions, net of transition costs

•Lower provision for income taxes

Acquisitions

Subsequent to the end of the first quarter of 2023, in April 2023, we entered into an agreement to acquire LG Group, Inc. ("Lion Brothers"), a Maryland-based designer and manufacturer of apparel brand embellishments. We believe this acquisition will expand the product portfolio in our Solutions Group reportable segment. We expect to complete this acquisition in the second quarter of 2023.

On March 6, 2023, we completed our business acquisition of Thermopatch, Inc. ("Thermopatch"), a New York-based manufacturer specializing in labeling, embellishments and transfers for the sports, industrial laundry, workwear and hospitality industries. We believe this acquisition will expand the product portfolio in our Solutions Group reportable segment. The purchase consideration for this acquisition was approximately $44 million, which we funded using cash and commercial paper borrowings.

The Thermopatch acquisition was not material to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Refer to Note 2, “Acquisitions,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Cost Reduction Actions

2023 Actions

During the three months ended April 1, 2023, we recorded $18.6 million in restructuring charges related to our 2023 actions. These charges consisted of severance and related costs for the reduction of approximately 340 positions at numerous locations across our company. These actions, which were primarily taken in our Materials Group reportable segment, largely related to headcount reductions.

Restructuring charges were included in “Other expense (income), net” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Refer to Note 5, “Cost Reduction Actions,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Cash Flow

	Three Months Ended
(In millions)	April 1, 2023		April 2, 2022
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	1.9	$	126.2
Purchases of property, plant and equipment	(64.5)		(49.7)
Purchases of software and other deferred charges	(5.3)		(5.6)
Proceeds from sales of property, plant and equipment	.2		.3
Proceeds from insurance and sales (purchases) of investments, net	(3.5)		1.8
Payments for certain acquisition-related transaction costs	—		.3
Free cash flow	$	(71.2)	$	73.3

During the first three months of 2023, net cash provided by operating activities decreased compared to the same period last year primarily due to lower net income and higher tax payments, partially offset by lower incentive compensation payments and changes in operational working capital. During the first three months of 2023, free cash flow decreased compared to the same period last year primarily due to a decrease in net cash provided by operating activities and an increase in purchases of property, plant and equipment.

Outlook

Certain factors that we believe may contribute to our 2023 results are described below.

•We expect net sales change of (2%) to 0%, which includes a negligible effect from foreign currency translation.

•We expect incremental savings from restructuring actions, net of transition costs, of approximately $50 million.

•We expect our full year effective tax rate to be in the mid-twenty percent range.

•We expect fixed and IT capital expenditures of up to $350 million.

ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE FIRST QUARTER

Gross Profit Margin

Gross profit margin for the first quarter of 2023 decreased from the same period last year due to lower volume, partially offset by the net benefit of pricing, energy and raw material costs and productivity initiatives, including material re-engineering and savings from restructuring actions, net of transition costs.

Marketing, General and Administrative Expense

Marketing, general and administrative expense decreased in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period last year primarily due to the benefits from productivity initiatives, including savings from restructuring actions, net of transition costs, and the impact of favorable foreign currency translation.

Refer to Note 5, “Cost Reduction Actions,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information regarding restructuring charges.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period last year primarily as a result of higher interest rates on short-term borrowings.

Net Income and Earnings per Share

	Three Months Ended
(In millions, except per share amounts and percentages)	April 1, 2023			April 2, 2022
Income before taxes	$	168.3		$	269.7

Net income per common share	$	1.50		$	2.41
Net income per common share, assuming dilution	1.49			2.39
Effective tax rate	28.0		%	26.5		%

Provision for Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate for the three months ended April 1, 2023 increased compared to the same period last year primarily due to higher non-deductible expenses driven by foreign currency and interest rate fluctuations, as well as lower tax incentives in certain foreign jurisdictions, partially offset by the benefit related to our current year GILTI exclusion election. Refer to Note 7, “Taxes Based on Income,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Our effective tax rate can vary from quarter to quarter due to a variety of factors, such as changes in the mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates, changes in tax reserves, settlements of income tax audits, changes in tax laws and regulations, return-to-provision adjustments, tax impacts related to stock-based payments and execution of tax planning strategies.

In the first quarter of 2023, net sales decreased on an organic basis compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to lower volume driven by inventory destocking, partially offset by pricing actions. On an organic basis, net sales decreased by a mid-single digit rate in emerging markets, a high-single digit rate in North America and a mid-teens rate in Western Europe.

Operating Income

Operating income decreased in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period last year primarily due to lower volume/mix, higher restructuring charges and the impact of unfavorable foreign currency translation, partially offset by the net benefit of pricing, energy and raw material input costs and benefits from productivity initiatives, including material re-engineering and savings from restructuring actions, net of transition costs.

Purchases of Software and Other Deferred Charges

During the first three months of 2023 and 2022, we primarily invested in information technology upgrades in the U.S.

Payments for Acquisitions, Net of Cash Acquired, and Venture Investments

During the first three months of 2023, we paid consideration, net of cash acquired, of approximately $44 million for the acquisition of Thermopatch. We funded the Thermopatch acquisition using cash and commercial paper borrowings. During the first three months of 2022, we paid consideration, net of cash acquired, of approximately $30 million for the acquisitions of TexTrace AG ("TexTrace") and Rietveld Serigrafie B.V. and Rietveld Screenprinting Serigrafi Baski Matbaa Tekstil Ithalat Ihracat Sanayi ve Ticaret Limited Sirketi ("Rietveld").

Borrowings and Repayment of Debt

During the first three months of 2023 and 2022, our commercial paper borrowings were used to fund acquisitions, dividend payments, share repurchases, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes.

In March 2023, we issued $400 million of senior notes, due March 15, 2033, which bear an interest rate of 5.750% per year, payable semiannually in arrears. Our net proceeds from this issuance, after deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses, were $394.9 million, which we used to repay both existing indebtedness under our commercial paper programs and the $250 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes that matured on April 15, 2023.

Refer to Note 2, “Acquisitions,” and Note 4, “Debt,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Dividends Paid

We paid dividends of $0.75 per share in the first three months of 2023 compared to $0.68 per share in the same period last year. In April 2023, subsequent to the end of our first quarter 2023, we increased our quarterly dividend rate to $0.81 per share, representing an increase of approximately 8% from our previous quarterly dividend rate of $0.75 per share.

Share Repurchases

During the first three months of 2023 and 2022, we repurchased approximately 0.3 million and 0.8 million shares of our common stock, respectively.

Long-lived Assets

In the three months ended April 1, 2023, goodwill increased by approximately $25 million to $1.89 billion, reflecting the impact of the preliminary goodwill associated with the Thermopatch acquisition and the impact of foreign currency translation.

In the three months ended April 1, 2023, other intangibles resulting from business acquisitions, net, decreased by approximately $7 million to $833.1 million, reflecting current year amortization expense, partially offset by the preliminary valuation of the intangible assets associated with the Thermopatch acquisition and the impact of foreign currency translation.

Refer to Note 3, “Goodwill and Other Intangibles Resulting from Business Acquisitions,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Shareholders’ Equity Accounts

As of April 1, 2023, the balance of our shareholders’ equity was $2.04 billion. Refer to Note 9, “Supplemental Equity and Comprehensive Income Information,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Impact of Foreign Currency Translation

	Three Months Ended
(In millions)	April 1, 2023
Change in net sales	$	(79)

International operations generated approximately 70% of our net sales during the three months ended April 1, 2023. Our future results are subject to changes in political and economic conditions globally and in the regions in which we operate and the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange and interest rates.

23

Avery Dennison Corporation

The unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation on net sales in the first three months of 2023 compared to the same period last year was primarily related to euro-denominated sales and sales in China.

Effect of Foreign Currency Transactions

The impact on net income from transactions denominated in foreign currencies is largely mitigated because the costs of our products are generally denominated in the same currencies in which they are sold. In addition, to reduce our income and cash flow exposure to transactions in foreign currencies, we enter into foreign exchange forward, option and swap contracts where available and appropriate. Refer to Note 6, “Financial Instruments,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Analysis of Selected Financial Ratios

We utilize the financial ratios discussed below to assess our financial condition and operating performance. We believe this information assists our investors in understanding the factors impacting our cash flow other than net income and capital expenditures.

Operational Working Capital Ratio

Operational working capital, as a percentage of annualized current-quarter net sales, is reconciled to working capital below. Our objective is to minimize our investment in operational working capital, as a percentage of annualized current-quarter net sales, to maximize cash flow and return on investment. Operational working capital, as a percentage of annualized current-quarter net sales, in the first quarter of 2023 was higher compared to the first quarter of 2022.

(In millions, except percentages)	April 1, 2023			April 2, 2022
(A) Working capital	$	345.5		$	171.1
Reconciling items:
Cash and cash equivalents	(351.3)			(147.1)
Other current assets	(218.2)			(234.9)
Short-term borrowings and current portion of long-term debt and finance leases	648.3			494.9
Accrued payroll and employee benefits and other current liabilities	759.2			855.8
(B) Operational working capital	$	1,183.5		$	1,139.8
(C) First-quarter net sales, annualized	$	8,260.0		$	9,397.2
Operational working capital, as a percentage of annualized current-quarter net sales: (B) ÷ (C)	14.3		%	12.1		%

Accounts Receivable Ratio

The average number of days sales outstanding was 60 days in both the first quarter of 2023 and 2022, calculated using the accounts receivable balance at quarter-end divided by the average daily sales in the respective quarter.

Inventory Ratio

Average inventory turnover was 5.8 in the first quarter of 2023 compared to 7.1 in the first quarter of 2022, calculated using the annualized first-quarter cost of products sold in 2023 and 2022, respectively, and divided by the inventory balance at quarter-end. The decrease in average inventory turnover reflected increased inventory due to the planned inventory pre-build for Intelligent Label programs and lower volumes from customer destocking.

Accounts Payable Ratio

The average number of days payable outstanding was 74 days in the first quarter of 2023 compared to 73 days in the first quarter of 2022, calculated using the accounts payable balance at quarter-end divided by the respective annualized first-quarter cost of products sold. The increase in average number of days payable outstanding primarily reflected the impact of foreign currency translation.

Capital Resources

Capital resources include cash flows from operations, cash and cash equivalents and debt financing, including access to commercial paper borrowings supported by our $1.20 billion revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”). We use these resources to fund our operational needs.

In January 2023, we extended the maturity date of the Revolver by one year to February 13, 2026 and increased the commitments by $400 million, from $800 million to $1.20 billion.

24

Avery Dennison Corporation

As of April 1, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $351.3 million held in accounts at third-party financial institutions. Our cash balances are held in numerous locations throughout the world. As of April 1, 2023, the majority of our cash and cash equivalents was held by our foreign subsidiaries, primarily in the Asia Pacific region and Europe.

To meet our U.S. cash requirements, we have several cost-effective liquidity options available. These options include borrowing funds at reasonable rates, including borrowings from foreign subsidiaries, and repatriating foreign earnings and profits. However, if we were to repatriate foreign earnings and profits, a portion would be subject to cash payments of withholding taxes imposed by foreign tax authorities. Additional U.S. taxes may also result from the impact of foreign currency fluctuations related to these earnings and profits.

The Revolver, which matures in February 2026, is used as a back-up facility for our commercial paper borrowings and can be used for other corporate purposes. No balance was outstanding under the Revolver as of April 1, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

Subsequent to the end of the first quarter of 2023, in April 2023, we used a portion the net proceeds from the $400 million of senior notes we issued in March 2023 to repay the $250 million of senior notes that matured on April 15, 2023.

Capital from Debt

The carrying value of our total debt increased by approximately $457 million in the first three months of 2023 to $3.56 billion, primarily reflecting the $400 million of senior notes issued in March 2023 and a net increase in commercial paper borrowings.

Credit ratings are a significant factor in our ability to raise short- and long-term financing. The credit ratings assigned to us also impact the interest rates we pay and our access to commercial paper, credit facilities and other borrowings. A downgrade of our short-term credit ratings could impact our ability to access commercial paper markets. If our access to commercial paper markets were to become limited, we believe that the Revolver and our other credit facilities would be available to meet our short-term funding requirements. When determining a credit rating, we believe that rating agencies primarily consider our competitive position, business outlook, consistency of cash flows, debt level and liquidity, geographic dispersion and management team. We remain committed to maintaining an investment grade rating.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Contractual Obligations, and Other Matters

Refer to Note 11, “Commitments and Contingencies,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information. Except as indicated therein, we have no material off-balance sheet arrangements as described in Item 303(b) of Regulation S-K.

General

The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are presented as permitted by Article 10 of Regulation S-X and do not contain certain information included in the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which should be read in conjunction with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of our interim results. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of future results. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect our current estimates and assumptions affecting (i) our reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures as of the date of the financial statements and (ii) our reported amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting periods presented.

Fiscal Periods

The three months ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022 each consisted of a thirteen-week period.

Accounting Guidance Update

Supplier Finance Programs

In the first quarter of 2023, we adopted accounting guidance to enhance the transparency of supplier finance programs to allow financial statement users to understand the programs' nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period and potential magnitude. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, except for the provision on roll-forward information, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. See Note 13, “Supplemental Financial Information,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]

Acquisitions

Acquisitions

Subsequent to the end of the first quarter of 2023, in April 2023, we entered into an agreement to acquire LG Group, Inc. ("Lion Brothers"), a Maryland-based designer and manufacturer of apparel brand embellishments. We believe this acquisition will expand the product portfolio in our Solutions Group reportable segment. We expect to complete this acquisition in the second quarter of 2023.

On March 6, 2023, we completed our business acquisition of Thermopatch, Inc. ("Thermopatch"), a New York-based manufacturer specializing in labeling, embellishments and transfers for the sports, industrial laundry, workwear and hospitality industries. We believe this acquisition will expand the product portfolio in our Solutions Group reportable segment. The purchase consideration for this acquisition was approximately $44 million, which we funded using cash and commercial paper borrowings.

The final allocation of Thermopatch purchase consideration to assets and liabilities is ongoing as we continue to evaluate certain balances, estimates and assumptions during the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). Consistent with the allowable time to complete our assessment, the valuation of certain acquired assets and liabilities, including tangible and intangible assets, environmental liabilities and income taxes, is currently pending finalization.

The Thermopatch acquisition was not material to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In connection with the Thermopatch acquisition, we acquired approximately $11 million of identifiable finite-lived intangible assets, which consisted of customer relationships and trade names and trademarks.

Amortization expense for all finite-lived intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions was $20.5 million for both the three months ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022.

Estimated future amortization expense related to existing finite-lived intangible assets for the remainder of fiscal year 2023 and for each of the next four fiscal years and thereafter is shown below. These amounts include the effects of the acquisition of Thermopatch.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]

Debt

Debt

In March 2023, we issued $400 million of senior notes, due March 15, 2033, which bear an interest rate of 5.750% per year, payable semiannually in arrears. Our net proceeds from this issuance, after deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses, were $394.9 million, which we used to repay both existing indebtedness under our commercial paper programs and the $250 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes that matured on April 15, 2023.

The estimated fair value of our long-term debt is primarily based on the credit spread above U.S. Treasury securities or euro government bond securities, as applicable, on notes with similar rates, credit ratings and remaining maturities. The fair value of short-term borrowings, which include commercial paper issuances and short-term lines of credit, approximates their carrying value given the short duration of these obligations. The fair value of our total debt was $3.35 billion at April 1, 2023 and $2.85 billion at December 31, 2022. Fair values were determined based primarily on Level 2 inputs, which are inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable.

In January 2023, we extended the maturity date of our revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) by one year to February 13, 2026 and increased the commitments by $400 million, from $800 million to $1.20 billion. Additionally, we amended the Revolver to replace the LIBOR benchmark interest rate with Term SOFR, Euribor and SONIA benchmark interest rates. The Revolver contains a financial covenant requiring that we maintain a specified ratio of total debt in relation to a certain measure of income. As of both April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we were in compliance with this financial covenant. No balance was outstanding under the Revolver as of April 1, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

Cost Reduction Actions

2023 Actions

During the three months ended April 1, 2023, we recorded $18.6 million in restructuring charges related to our 2023 actions. These charges consisted of severance and related costs for the reduction of approximately 340 positions at numerous locations across our company. These actions, which were primarily taken in our Materials Group reportable segment, largely related to headcount reductions.

During the three months ended April 1, 2023, restructuring charges and payments were as follows:

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Financial Instruments

Financial Instruments

We enter into foreign exchange hedge contracts to reduce our risk from foreign exchange rate fluctuations associated with receivables, payables, loans and firm commitments denominated in certain foreign currencies that arise primarily as a result of our operations outside the U.S. We also enter into futures contracts to hedge certain price fluctuations for a portion of our anticipated domestic purchases of natural gas. The impact of these foreign exchange and commodities hedge activities on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements was not material.

In March 2020, we entered into U.S. dollar to euro cross-currency swap contracts with a total notional amount of $250 million to have the effect of converting the fixed-rate U.S. dollar-denominated debt to euro-denominated debt, including semiannual interest payments and the payment of principal at maturity. During the term of the contract, which ends on April 30, 2030, we pay fixed-rate interest in euros and receive fixed-rate interest in U.S. dollars. These contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges. The fair value of these contracts was $14.2 million and $15.5 million as of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, which was included in "Other Assets" in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to Note 10, “Fair Value Measurements,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

We recorded no ineffectiveness from our cross-currency swap to earnings during the three months ended April 1, 2023 or April 2, 2022.

Taxes Based on Income

Taxes Based on Income

The following table summarizes our income before taxes, provision for income taxes, and effective tax rate:

	Three Months Ended
(Dollars in millions)	April 1, 2023			April 2, 2022
Income before taxes	$	168.3		$	269.7
Provision for income taxes	47.1			71.5
Effective tax rate	28.0		%	26.5		%

Our provision for income taxes for the three months ended April 1, 2023 included a net tax charge related to the tax on global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) of our foreign subsidiaries after benefiting from the current year exclusion election as well as the recognition of foreign withholding taxes on current year earnings, partially offset by the benefit from foreign-derived intangible income (“FDII”). Our provision for income taxes for the three months ended April 1, 2023 was also adversely affected by higher non-deductible expenses primarily driven by foreign currency and interest rate fluctuations, as well as lower tax incentives in certain foreign jurisdictions.

In 2020, the U.S. Department of Treasury issued final regulations that provide certain U.S. taxpayers with an annual election to exclude certain foreign income subject to a high effective tax rate from their GILTI inclusions. We reflected the benefit related to a GILTI exclusion election we plan to make for tax year 2023, but we have yet to determine whether to make the election for tax year 2022. We continue to evaluate the impact of the election and currently anticipate that the benefit from making this election on our 2022 U.S. federal tax return may be significant.

Our provision for income taxes for the three months ended April 2, 2022 included $6.6 million of net tax charge related to the tax on GILTI of our foreign subsidiaries and the recognition of foreign withholding taxes on current year earnings, partially offset by the benefit from FDII.

The amount of income taxes we pay is subject to ongoing audits by taxing jurisdictions around the world. Our estimate of the potential outcome of any uncertain tax issue is subject to our assessment of the relevant risks, facts and circumstances existing at the time. We believe that we have adequately provided for reasonably foreseeable outcomes related to these matters. However, our future results may include favorable or unfavorable adjustments to our estimated tax liabilities in the period the assessments are made or resolved, which

may impact our effective tax rate. The final determination of tax audits and any related legal proceedings could materially differ from the amounts currently reflected in our tax provision for income taxes and the related liabilities. To date, we and our U.S. subsidiaries have completed the Internal Revenue Service's Compliance Assurance Process through 2018. With limited exceptions, we are no longer subject to income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2010.

It is reasonably possible that, during the next 12 months, we may realize a net decrease in our uncertain tax positions, including interest and penalties, of approximately $7 million, primarily as a result of closing tax years.

Investments include fixed income securities (primarily U.S. government and corporate debt securities) measured at fair value using quoted prices/bids and a money market fund measured at fair value using net asset value. As of April 1, 2023, investments of $1.1 million and $35.2 million were included in “Cash and cash equivalents” and “Other current assets,” respectively, in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2022, investments of $0.7 million and $30.6 million were included in “Cash and cash equivalents” and “Other current assets,” respectively, in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Derivatives that are exchange-traded are measured at fair value using quoted market prices and classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Derivatives measured based on foreign exchange rate inputs that are readily available in public markets are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. Bank drafts (maturities greater than three months) are valued at face value due to their short-term nature and were included in “Other current assets” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Contingent consideration liabilities relate to estimated earn-out payments associated with certain acquisitions completed in 2022 and 2021, which are subject to the respective acquired company achieving certain post-acquisition performance targets. These liabilities were recorded based on the expected payments as of April 1, 2023 and have been classified as Level 3.

In addition to the items described above, we also have made venture investments in privately held companies and utilize the measurement alternative for equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values, measuring them at cost less impairment plus or minus observable price changes in orderly transactions. We recognized no net gains on these investments in the three months ended April 1, 2023. We recognized net gains on these investments of $3.7 million in the three months ended April 2, 2022 in “Other expense (income), net” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Income Statements. The total carrying value of our venture investments was approximately $71 million and $70 million as of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and included in “Other assets” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

We are involved in various lawsuits, claims, inquiries and other regulatory and compliance matters, most of which are routine to the nature of our business. When it is probable that a loss will be incurred and where a range of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the best estimate within the range is accrued. When the best estimate within the range cannot be determined, the low end of the range is accrued. The ultimate resolution of these claims could affect future results of operations should our exposure be materially different from our estimates or should we incur liabilities that were not previously accrued. Potential insurance reimbursements are not offset against potential liabilities.

We are currently party to a litigation in which ADASA Inc. (“Adasa”), an unrelated third party, alleged that certain of our RFID products infringed its patent. The case was filed on October 24, 2017 in the United States District Court in the District of Oregon (Eugene Division) and is captioned ADASA Inc. v. Avery Dennison Corporation. We recorded a contingent liability in the amount of $26.6 million related to this matter in the second quarter of 2021 based on a jury verdict issued on May 14, 2021.

During the fourth quarter of 2021, the first instance judgment associated with the jury verdict was issued. This resulted in additional potential liability for the RFID tags sold during the period from the jury verdict to the issuance of the first instance judgment and a royalty on additional late-disclosed tags, as well as sanctions, prejudgment interest, costs, and attorneys’ fees. In addition, Adasa was awarded an ongoing royalty on in-scope tags sold after October 14, 2021. On October 22, 2021, we appealed the judgment to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ("CAFC").

During the fourth quarter of 2022, the CAFC issued its opinion, reversing the grant of summary judgment of validity as to anticipation and obviousness, vacating the sanctions ruling, and remanding the case for retrial. The CAFC affirmed subject-matter eligibility and

damages if liability is determined in the retrial. On remand, the trial court must reconsider the amount of sanctions consistent with the CAFC's instruction to limit sanctions to the late-disclosed tags. With continued evaluation of the matter and our defenses, as well as consultation with our outside counsel, we continue to believe that Adasa’s patent is invalid and that the sanctions are unreasonable. In addition, we believe that there are appealable grounds in the CAFC’s decision; as a result, we sought U.S. Supreme Court review on February 27, 2023. The retrial at the trial court is currently scheduled to begin on July 10, 2023. As of April 1, 2023, we continue to evaluate our options and estimate a range of potential outcomes between approximately $5 million to $71 million. Based on our assessment, we concluded that the current reserve of $26.6 million is representative of the estimated liability taking into consideration the potential outcomes; as such, we did not record a change to the accrued liability. We have largely completed our migration to alternative encoding methods for our RFID tags.

Because of the uncertainties associated with claims resolution and litigation, future expenses to resolve these matters could be higher than the liabilities we have accrued; however, we are unable to reasonably estimate a range of potential expenses. If information were to become available that allowed us to reasonably estimate a range of potential expenses determined to be probable in an amount higher or lower than what we have accrued and determined such to be probable, we would adjust our accrued liabilities accordingly. Additional lawsuits, claims, inquiries and other regulatory and compliance matters could arise in the future. The range of expenses for resolving any future matters would be assessed as they arise; until then, a range of potential expenses for such resolution cannot be determined. Based upon current information, we believe that the impact of the resolution of these matters would not be, individually or in the aggregate, material to our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Environmental Expenditures

Environmental expenditures are generally expensed. When it is probable that a loss will be incurred and where a range of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the best estimate within the range is accrued. When the best estimate within the range cannot be determined, the low end of the range is accrued. The ultimate resolution of these matters could affect future results of operations should our exposure be materially different from our estimates or should we incur liabilities that were not previously accrued. Potential insurance reimbursements are not offset against potential liabilities. We review our estimates of the costs of complying with environmental laws related to remediation and cleanup of various sites, including sites in which governmental agencies have designated us as a potentially responsible party (“PRP”). However, environmental expenditures for newly acquired assets and those that extend or improve the economic useful life of existing assets are capitalized and amortized over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the acquired asset or the remaining life of the existing asset.

As of April 1, 2023, we have been designated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and/or other responsible state agencies as a PRP at eleven waste disposal or waste recycling sites that are the subject of separate investigations or proceedings concerning alleged soil and/or groundwater contamination. No settlement of our liability related to any of these sites has been agreed upon. We are participating with other PRPs at these sites and anticipate that our share of remediation costs will be determined pursuant to agreements that we negotiate with the EPA or other governmental authorities.

These estimates could change as a result of changes in planned remedial actions, remediation technologies, site conditions, the estimated time to complete remediation, environmental laws and regulations, and other factors. Because of the uncertainties associated with environmental assessment and remediation activities, our future expenses to remediate these sites could be higher than the liabilities we have accrued; however, we are unable to reasonably estimate a range of potential expenses determined to be probable. If information were to become available that allowed us to reasonably estimate a range of potential expenses in an amount higher or lower than what we have accrued, we would adjust our environmental liabilities accordingly. In addition, we may be identified as a PRP at additional sites in the future. The range of expenses for remediation of any future-identified sites would be addressed as they arise; until then, a range of expenses for such remediation cannot be determined.

The activity related to our environmental liabilities for the three months ended April 1, 2023 is shown below.

Supplier Finance Programs

We have agreements with third-party financial institutions to facilitate payments to suppliers. These third-party financial institutions offer voluntary supply chain finance programs that enable certain of our suppliers, at the supplier’s sole discretion, to sell our payment obligations to a financial institution on terms directly negotiated with the financial institution. Participating suppliers decide which payment obligations are sold to the financial institution and we have no economic interest in a supplier’s decision to sell these payment obligations. We make payments to the financial institution on the invoice due date, regardless of whether an individual invoice is sold by the supplier to the financial institution. Our obligations to our suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment dates, are not impacted by suppliers' decisions to sell amounts under these arrangements. Amounts due under our supply chain finance programs are included in accounts payable on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and activities related to these programs are presented as operating activities in our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. As of April 1, 2023 and December

31, 2022, the total amounts due to financial institutions for suppliers that participate in these programs were $348.2 million and $430.1 million, respectively.
