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, which 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. Our forward-looking statements, and financial or other business 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 impact on underlying demand for our products from global economic conditions, political uncertainty, and changes in environmental standards, regulations, and preferences; (ii) competitors’ actions, including pricing, expansion in key markets, and product offerings; (iii) the cost and availability of raw materials; (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.
Certain risks and uncertainties are discussed in more detail under “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 21, 2024, and subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q.

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 2023 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 and six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023 each consisted of thirteen-week and twenty-six week periods, respectively.

Note 3. Debt
In June 2024, we entered into a Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") related to our revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) to borrow up to an aggregate of $1.20 billion through its maturity date of June 26, 2029. The Revolver refinanced our Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of February 13, 2020, as amended. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the commitments under the Revolver may be increased by up to $600 million, subject to lender approvals and customary requirements. Under certain circumstances, we may request that the commitments under the Revolver be extended for one-year periods in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. We use the Revolver as a back-up facility for our commercial paper program and for other corporate purposes. The Revolver contains a financial covenant requiring that we maintain a specified ratio of total debt minus unrestricted cash and cash equivalents to a certain measure of income. As of both June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, we were in compliance with the
6

Avery Dennison Corporation
applicable financial covenants. No balance was outstanding under the Revolver as of June 29, 2024 or our prior revolving credit facility as of December 30, 2023.
In the six months ended June 29, 2024, we reclassified $25 million of our medium-term notes due in the second quarter of 2025 and our €500 million senior notes due in the first quarter of 2025 from "Long-term debt and finance leases" to "Short-term borrowings and current portion of long-term debt and finance leases" in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
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 $3.05 billion at June 29, 2024 and $3.11 billion at December 30, 2023. Fair value was determined based primarily on Level 2 inputs, which are inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable.
Note 4. Cost Reduction Actions
2023 Actions
We recorded $13.2 million in restructuring charges, net of reversals, during the six months ended June 29, 2024. These charges consisted of severance and related costs for the reduction of approximately 380 positions, as well as asset impairment and lease cancellation charges, at various locations across our company.
In the third quarter of 2023, we approved a restructuring plan (the “2023 Plan”) to further optimize the European footprint of our Materials Group reportable segment by reducing operations in a manufacturing facility in Belgium. The cumulative charges associated with the 2023 Plan, which we recorded in 2023, consisted of severance and related costs for the reduction of approximately 210 positions, as well as asset impairment charges. We do not anticipate additional charges related to the 2023 Plan and expect it to be substantially completed by mid-2025.
During the six months ended June 29, 2024, restructuring charges and payments were as follows:

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.

Note 5. Financial Instruments
We enter into foreign exchange hedge contracts to reduce the risk from foreign exchange rate fluctuations associated with our 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 contracts, which end 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 $9.8 million and $2.3 million as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively, which was included in "Other Assets" in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to Note 9, “Fair Value Measurements,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
We recorded no ineffectiveness from our cross-currency swap contracts to earnings during the six months ended June 29, 2024 or July 1, 2023.
Note 6. Taxes Based on Income
The following table summarizes our income before taxes, provision for income taxes, and effective tax rate:
Three Months Ended Six Months Ended
(Dollars in millions)June 29, 2024July 1, 2023June 29, 2024July 1, 2023
Income before taxes$238.4 $140.2 $472.8 $308.5 
Provision for income taxes61.6 39.8 123.6 86.9 
Effective tax rate25.8 %28.4 %26.1 %28.2 %

Our provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 included a net tax charge related to the tax on global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) of our foreign subsidiaries and 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 these periods was favorably affected by (i) higher tax incentives in certain foreign jurisdictions and the tax impacts resulting from Blue Chip Swap transactions in Argentina and (ii) discrete tax benefits from decreases in certain tax reserves, including interest and penalties, as a result of closing tax years.

Our provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended July 1, 2023 included a 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. Our provision for income taxes for these periods (i) was adversely affected by higher non-deductible expenses primarily resulting from foreign currency and interest rate fluctuations, as well as lower tax incentives in certain foreign jurisdictions, and (ii) included discrete tax benefits from decreases in certain tax reserves as a result of favorable court rulings in a foreign jurisdiction.
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. We and our U.S. subsidiaries have completed the Internal Revenue Service Compliance Assurance Process through 2021. 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 $6 million, primarily as a result of closing tax years.

Investments include fixed income securities (primarily U.S. government and corporate debt and equity securities) measured at fair value using quoted prices/bids and a money market fund measured at fair value using net asset value. As of June 29, 2024, investments of $2.2 million, $36.2 million and $10.4 million were included in “Cash and cash equivalents,” “Other current assets,” and "Other assets," respectively, in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 30, 2023, investments of $2.7 million and $35.1 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), which are valued at face value due to their short-term nature, were included in “Other current assets” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Contingent consideration liabilities as of June 29, 2024 relate to estimated earn-out payments associated with certain acquisitions completed in 2023, 2022 and 2021, which are subject to the acquired companies achieving certain post-acquisition performance targets. These liabilities were recorded based on the expected payments and have been classified as Level 3. Activity related to contingent consideration was immaterial for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023.
In addition to the investments described above, we hold venture investments that had a total carrying value of approximately $44 million and $71 million as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively, which was included in “Other assets” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three months ended June 29, 2024, we began revaluing certain venture investments based on Level 1 inputs; the fair value of these investments was $10.4 million as of June 29, 2024.
We recognized $15.0 million in net losses on venture investments in the three months ended June 29, 2024 and $17.2 million in net losses in the six months ended June 29, 2024. We recognized no net gains or losses on venture investments in the three and six months ended July 1, 2023. These net gains or losses were recorded in "Other expense (income), net” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
Note 10. 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 were party to a litigation in which ADASA Inc. (“Adasa”), an unrelated third party, alleged that certain of our RFID products within our Solutions Group reportable segment 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 was 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.
We appealed the first instance judgment associated with the jury verdict – which 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, a higher royalty applicable to tags sold after the judgment and a royalty on additional late-disclosed tags, as well as sanctions, prejudgment interest, costs, and attorneys’ fees, as well as an ongoing royalty on in-scope tags sold after October 14, 2021 – to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit

(the “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 with respect to validity for anticipation and obviousness over the prior art. The CAFC affirmed subject-matter eligibility and damages if liability was determined on retrial. On remand, the trial court was required to reconsider the amount of sanctions consistent with the CAFC's instruction to limit sanctions to the late-disclosed tags.
After the U.S. Supreme Court denied our writ of certiorari petition on May 30, 2023, the trial court’s retrial began on July 10, 2023. On July 18, 2023, the jury in the retrial issued a verdict that Adasa’s patent is valid. We increased our contingent liability to reflect our then-best estimate of the anticipated judgment to $80.4 million as of July 1, 2023, with an expectation to continue adjusting our accrual quarterly, as appropriate. As of December 30, 2023, our contingent liability for this matter was $82.9 million.
On January 25, 2024, the district court issued a revised sanctions order lowering the sanctions against us from approximately $20 million to $5.2 million based on a rate of $0.0025/late-reported tag, which was consistent with the amount we had accrued. In February 2024, the district court issued its decision denying our motion for judgment as a matter of law and our motion for a new trial. On March 7, 2024, the Court issued an amended final judgment, assessing damages, pre- and post-judgment interest, costs, attorneys' fees, sanctions, and ongoing royalties.
On April 25, 2024, we executed a Settlement Agreement, License and Mutual Release with Adasa pursuant to which, among other things, (i) we agreed to pay $75.0 million to Adasa without any concessions or admissions of liability; (ii) Adasa agreed to grant us a worldwide, nonexclusive, nontransferable fully-paid up, and ongoing royalty-free perpetual license, without the right to sublicense, to the patents at issue in the litigation; and (iii) the parties mutually released all claims against one another. We paid the agreed-upon settlement amount to Adasa on April 26, 2024. No court approval of the settlement was required, however, as required by the settlement agreement, Adasa filed a Stipulation of Satisfaction of Judgment with the trial court on April 29, 2024.
Because of the uncertainties associated with claims resolution and litigation, future expenses to resolve legal proceedings 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, 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 their resolution cannot be determined. Based upon current information, we believe that the impact of the resolution of legal proceedings 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 the remediation and cleanup of various sites, including sites in which governmental agencies have designated us as a potentially responsible party (“PRP”). 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 June 29, 2024, we have been designated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and/or other responsible state agencies as a PRP at ten 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 enter into 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 their remediation cannot be determined.

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 in 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 June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the amounts due to financial institutions for suppliers that participate in these programs were $404.3 million and $397.4 million, respectively.
Argentine Blue Chip Swap
During 2019, the Argentine government instituted exchange controls restricting the ability of entities and individuals to exchange Argentine pesos for foreign currencies or remit foreign currency out of Argentina. Due to these currency exchange restrictions, markets in Argentina use a legal trading mechanism known as the Blue Chip Swap that allows entities to transfer U.S. dollars in and out of Argentina. During the three and six months ended June 29, 2024, we entered into Blue Chip Swap transactions that resulted in losses of approximately $4 million and $10 million, respectively, that we recorded in "Other expense (income), net" in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Purchases and the proceeds from sales of Argentine Blue Chip Swap securities were included in investing activities in our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

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 thereto.
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. We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally to evaluate trends in our underlying performance, as well as to facilitate comparisons with the results of competitors for quarters and year-to-date periods, as applicable. Based on feedback from investors and financial analysts, we believe that the supplemental non-GAAP financial measures we provide are also useful to their assessments of our performance and operating trends, as well as liquidity. Reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures from the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are provided in accordance with Regulations G and S-K.
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 matters and settlements, 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, currency adjustments due to highly inflationary economies, 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 the non-GAAP financial measures defined 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, where applicable, an extra week in our fiscal year, the calendar shift resulting from an extra week in the prior fiscal year, currency adjustments for transitional reporting of highly inflationary economies, and the reclassification of sales between segments. 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 foreign 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.
Adjusted 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 company-owned life insurance policies, plus proceeds from sales of property, plant and equipment, plus (minus) net proceeds from insurance and sales (purchases) of investments, less net cash used for Argentine Blue Chip Swap securities. Where applicable, adjusted free cash flow is also adjusted for certain acquisition-related transaction costs. We believe that adjusted 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.

(1) Totals may not sum due to rounding
In the three months and six months ended June 29, 2024, net sales increased on an organic basis compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to higher volume, partially offset by the impact of raw material deflation-related price reductions.
Net Income
Net income increased from approximately $222 million in the first six months of 2023 to approximately $349 million in the first six months of 2024. The major factors impacting this increase were:
Higher volume
Benefits from productivity initiatives, including material re-engineering and savings from restructuring actions, net of transition costs
Offsetting factors were:
Higher employee-related costs
Higher provision for income taxes

Cost Reduction Actions
2023 Actions
We recorded $13.2 million in restructuring charges, net of reversals, during the six months ended June 29, 2024. These charges consisted of severance and related costs for the reduction of approximately 380 positions, as well as asset impairment and lease cancellation charges, at various locations across our company.
In the third quarter of 2023, we approved a restructuring plan (the “2023 Plan”) to further optimize the European footprint of our Materials Group reportable segment by reducing operations in a manufacturing facility in Belgium. The cumulative charges associated with the 2023 Plan, which we recorded in 2023, consisted of severance and related costs for the reduction of approximately 210 positions, as well as asset impairment charges. We do not anticipate additional charges related to the 2023 Plan and expect it to be substantially completed by mid-2025.
Restructuring charges were included in “Other expense (income), net” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Refer to Note 4, “Cost Reduction Actions,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Adjusted free cash flow$200.6 $63.7 
During the first six months of 2024, net cash provided by operating activities increased compared to the same period last year primarily due to higher net income, lower incentive compensation payments and lower tax payments, net of refunds, partially offset by the settlement payment for the Adasa legal matter and changes in operational working capital. During the first six months of 2024, adjusted free cash flow increased compared to the same period last year primarily due to an increase in net cash provided by operating activities and a decrease in purchases of property, plant and equipment.
Outlook
Certain factors that we believe may contribute to our 2024 results are described below.
We anticipate net sales to increase due to higher volume as our markets improve following significant inventory destocking downstream from our company in 2023, as well as growth in Intelligent Labels. This increase may be partially offset by raw material deflation-related price reductions.
We anticipate incremental savings from restructuring actions, net of transition costs.
Based on recent rates, we expect foreign currency translation to have an unfavorable impact on our full-year operating income.
We expect our full-year effective tax rate to be in the mid-twenty percent range.

In the second quarter of 2024, net sales increased on an organic basis compared to the same period in the prior year by a mid-to-high single-digit rate in high-value categories and a mid-to-high teens rate in the base business. Company-wide, on an organic basis, net sales of Intelligent Label solutions increased by a mid-to-high teens rate compared to the same period in the prior year.
Operating Income
Operating income increased in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same period last year primarily due to the impact of the accrual for the Adasa legal matter in the prior year, higher volume and benefits from productivity initiatives, including savings from restructuring actions, net of transition costs, partially offset by higher employee-related costs and growth investments.

Provision for Income Taxes
Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 29, 2024 decreased compared to the same period last year primarily due to higher tax incentives in certain foreign jurisdictions and the tax impacts resulting from Blue Chip Swap transactions in Argentina. Refer to Note 6, “Taxes Based on Income,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

The global minimum tax under the Pillar Two framework became effective for us in 2024. While the impact of this framework is currently not expected to be material to our full-year effective tax rate, our analysis is ongoing as the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development continues to release additional guidance and countries enact related legislation.
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.

Avery Dennison Corporation
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 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 3, “Debt,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
Dividends Paid
We paid dividends of $1.69 per share in the first six months of 2024 compared to $1.56 per share in the same period last year. In April 2024, we increased our quarterly dividend rate to $0.88 per share, representing an increase of approximately 9% from our previous quarterly dividend rate of $0.81 per share.
Share Repurchases
During the first six months of 2024 and 2023, we repurchased approximately 0.2 million and 0.5 million shares of our common stock, respectively.
Long-lived Assets
In the six months ended June 29, 2024, goodwill decreased by approximately $24 million to $1.99 billion, primarily reflecting the impact of foreign currency translation.
In the six months ended June 29, 2024, other intangibles resulting from business acquisitions, net, decreased by approximately $48 million to $800.9 million, reflecting current year amortization expense and the impact of foreign currency translation.
Refer to Note 2, “Goodwill and Other Intangibles Resulting from Business Acquisitions,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
Shareholders’ Equity Accounts
As of June 29, 2024, the balance of our shareholders’ equity was $2.29 billion. Refer to Note 8, “Supplemental Equity and Comprehensive Income Information,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
Impact of Foreign Currency Translation
Six Months Ended
(In millions)June 29, 2024
Change in net sales$(21)
International operations generated approximately 70% of our net sales during the six months ended June 29, 2024. Our future results are subject to changes in political, social and economic conditions globally and in the regions in which we operate and the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange and interest rates.
The unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation on net sales in the first six months of 2024 compared to the same period last year was primarily related to 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 5, “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 (deficit) below. Working capital (deficit) (current assets minus current liabilities) as of the second quarter of 2024 decreased by approximately $575 million compared to the second quarter of 2023 primarily due to the reclassification of our $300 million of senior notes due in the third quarter of 2024, €500 million of senior notes due in the first quarter of 2025 and $25 million of medium-term notes due in the second quarter of 2025, partially offset by lower commercial paper borrowings of approximately $321 million. Our objective is to minimize our investment in operational working capital, as a percentage of annualized current-quarter net sales, to maximize our cash flow and return

on investment. As shown below, operational working capital, as a percentage of annualized current-quarter net sales, in the second quarter of 2024 decreased compared to the second quarter of 2023.

Accounts Receivable Ratio
The average number of days sales outstanding was 62 days in the second quarters of 2024 and 2023, 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 6.4 in the second quarter of 2024 compared to 6.2 in the second quarter of 2023, calculated using the annualized second-quarter cost of products sold in 2024 and 2023, respectively, and divided by the inventory balance at quarter-end.
Accounts Payable Ratio
The average number of days payable outstanding was 76 days in the second quarter of 2024 compared to 73 days in the second quarter of 2023, calculated using the accounts payable balance at quarter-end divided by the respective annualized second-quarter cost of products sold. The increase in average number of days payable outstanding primarily reflected the timing of vendor payments.
Capital Resources
Capital resources used to fund our operational needs 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”).
In June 2024, we entered into a Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") under which we can borrow up to an aggregate of $1.20 billion through its maturity date of June 26, 2029. The Revolver refinanced our Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of February 13, 2020, as amended. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the commitments under the Revolver may be increased by up to $600 million, subject to lender approvals and customary requirements. Under certain circumstances, we may request that the commitments under the Revolver be extended for one-year periods in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement.
The Revolver 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 June 29, 2024 or our prior revolving credit facility as of December 30, 2023.
As of June 29, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of $208.8 million held in accounts at third-party financial institutions. Our cash balances are held in numerous locations around the world. As of June 29, 2024, the majority of our cash and cash equivalents was held by our foreign subsidiaries, primarily in Asia Pacific.
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.
We are currently considering various sources, including cash flows from operations, commercial paper borrowings and other financings, to repay approximately $300 million of senior notes, €500 million of senior notes and $25 million of medium-term notes maturing in the third quarter of 2024, first quarter of 2025 and second quarter of 2025, respectively.
Capital from Debt
The carrying value of our total debt decreased by approximately $26 million in the first six months of 2024 to $3.22 billion, primarily reflecting the revaluation of our euro-denominated senior notes.
26

Avery Dennison Corporation
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

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding the required disclosure.
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Our disclosure controls system is based upon a global chain of financial and general business reporting lines that converge in our headquarters in Mentor, Ohio. As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such time to provide reasonable assurance that information was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information was accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding the required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Debt Debt
In June 2024, we entered into a Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") related to our revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) to borrow up to an aggregate of $1.20 billion through its maturity date of June 26, 2029. The Revolver refinanced our Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of February 13, 2020, as amended. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the commitments under the Revolver may be increased by up to $600 million, subject to lender approvals and customary requirements. Under certain circumstances, we may request that the commitments under the Revolver be extended for one-year periods in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. We use the Revolver as a back-up facility for our commercial paper program and for other corporate purposes. The Revolver contains a financial covenant requiring that we maintain a specified ratio of total debt minus unrestricted cash and cash equivalents to a certain measure of income. As of both June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, we were in compliance with the
applicable financial covenants. No balance was outstanding under the Revolver as of June 29, 2024 or our prior revolving credit facility as of December 30, 2023.
In the six months ended June 29, 2024, we reclassified $25 million of our medium-term notes due in the second quarter of 2025 and our €500 million senior notes due in the first quarter of 2025 from "Long-term debt and finance leases" to "Short-term borrowings and current portion of long-term debt and finance leases" in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
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 $3.05 billion at June 29, 2024 and $3.11 billion at December 30, 2023. Fair value was determined based primarily on Level 2 inputs, which are inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable.

2023 Actions
We recorded $13.2 million in restructuring charges, net of reversals, during the six months ended June 29, 2024. These charges consisted of severance and related costs for the reduction of approximately 380 positions, as well as asset impairment and lease cancellation charges, at various locations across our company.
In the third quarter of 2023, we approved a restructuring plan (the “2023 Plan”) to further optimize the European footprint of our Materials Group reportable segment by reducing operations in a manufacturing facility in Belgium. The cumulative charges associated with the 2023 Plan, which we recorded in 2023, consisted of severance and related costs for the reduction of approximately 210 positions, as well as asset impairment charges. We do not anticipate additional charges related to the 2023 Plan and expect it to be substantially completed by mid-2025.
During the six months ended June 29, 2024, restructuring charges and payments were as follows:

Financial Instruments Financial Instruments
We enter into foreign exchange hedge contracts to reduce the risk from foreign exchange rate fluctuations associated with our 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 contracts, which end 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 $9.8 million and $2.3 million as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively, which was included in "Other Assets" in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to Note 9, “Fair Value Measurements,” to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
We recorded no ineffectiveness from our cross-currency swap contracts to earnings during the six months ended June 29, 2024 or July 1, 2023.

Our provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 included a net tax charge related to the tax on global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) of our foreign subsidiaries and 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 these periods was favorably affected by (i) higher tax incentives in certain foreign jurisdictions and the tax impacts resulting from Blue Chip Swap transactions in Argentina and (ii) discrete tax benefits from decreases in certain tax reserves, including interest and penalties, as a result of closing tax years.

Our provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended July 1, 2023 included a 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. Our provision for income taxes for these periods (i) was adversely affected by higher non-deductible expenses primarily resulting from foreign currency and interest rate fluctuations, as well as lower tax incentives in certain foreign jurisdictions, and (ii) included discrete tax benefits from decreases in certain tax reserves as a result of favorable court rulings in a foreign jurisdiction.
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. We and our U.S. subsidiaries have completed the Internal Revenue Service Compliance Assurance Process through 2021. 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 $6 million, primarily as a result of closing tax years.

Investments include fixed income securities (primarily U.S. government and corporate debt and equity securities) measured at fair value using quoted prices/bids and a money market fund measured at fair value using net asset value. As of June 29, 2024, investments of $2.2 million, $36.2 million and $10.4 million were included in “Cash and cash equivalents,” “Other current assets,” and "Other assets," respectively, in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 30, 2023, investments of $2.7 million and $35.1 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), which are valued at face value due to their short-term nature, were included in “Other current assets” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Contingent consideration liabilities as of June 29, 2024 relate to estimated earn-out payments associated with certain acquisitions completed in 2023, 2022 and 2021, which are subject to the acquired companies achieving certain post-acquisition performance targets. These liabilities were recorded based on the expected payments and have been classified as Level 3. Activity related to contingent consideration was immaterial for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023.
In addition to the investments described above, we hold venture investments that had a total carrying value of approximately $44 million and $71 million as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively, which was included in “Other assets” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three months ended June 29, 2024, we began revaluing certain venture investments based on Level 1 inputs; the fair value of these investments was $10.4 million as of June 29, 2024.
We recognized $15.0 million in net losses on venture investments in the three months ended June 29, 2024 and $17.2 million in net losses in the six months ended June 29, 2024. We recognized no net gains or losses on venture investments in the three and six months ended July 1, 2023. These net gains or losses were recorded in "Other expense (income), net” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

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 were party to a litigation in which ADASA Inc. (“Adasa”), an unrelated third party, alleged that certain of our RFID products within our Solutions Group reportable segment 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 was 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.
We appealed the first instance judgment associated with the jury verdict – which 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, a higher royalty applicable to tags sold after the judgment and a royalty on additional late-disclosed tags, as well as sanctions, prejudgment interest, costs, and attorneys’ fees, as well as an ongoing royalty on in-scope tags sold after October 14, 2021 – to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit
(the “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 with respect to validity for anticipation and obviousness over the prior art. The CAFC affirmed subject-matter eligibility and damages if liability was determined on retrial. On remand, the trial court was required to reconsider the amount of sanctions consistent with the CAFC's instruction to limit sanctions to the late-disclosed tags.
After the U.S. Supreme Court denied our writ of certiorari petition on May 30, 2023, the trial court’s retrial began on July 10, 2023. On July 18, 2023, the jury in the retrial issued a verdict that Adasa’s patent is valid. We increased our contingent liability to reflect our then-best estimate of the anticipated judgment to $80.4 million as of July 1, 2023, with an expectation to continue adjusting our accrual quarterly, as appropriate. As of December 30, 2023, our contingent liability for this matter was $82.9 million.
On January 25, 2024, the district court issued a revised sanctions order lowering the sanctions against us from approximately $20 million to $5.2 million based on a rate of $0.0025/late-reported tag, which was consistent with the amount we had accrued. In February 2024, the district court issued its decision denying our motion for judgment as a matter of law and our motion for a new trial. On March 7, 2024, the Court issued an amended final judgment, assessing damages, pre- and post-judgment interest, costs, attorneys' fees, sanctions, and ongoing royalties.
On April 25, 2024, we executed a Settlement Agreement, License and Mutual Release with Adasa pursuant to which, among other things, (i) we agreed to pay $75.0 million to Adasa without any concessions or admissions of liability; (ii) Adasa agreed to grant us a worldwide, nonexclusive, nontransferable fully-paid up, and ongoing royalty-free perpetual license, without the right to sublicense, to the patents at issue in the litigation; and (iii) the parties mutually released all claims against one another. We paid the agreed-upon settlement amount to Adasa on April 26, 2024. No court approval of the settlement was required, however, as required by the settlement agreement, Adasa filed a Stipulation of Satisfaction of Judgment with the trial court on April 29, 2024.
Because of the uncertainties associated with claims resolution and litigation, future expenses to resolve legal proceedings 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, 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 their resolution cannot be determined. Based upon current information, we believe that the impact of the resolution of legal proceedings 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 the remediation and cleanup of various sites, including sites in which governmental agencies have designated us as a potentially responsible party (“PRP”). 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 June 29, 2024, we have been designated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and/or other responsible state agencies as a PRP at ten 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 enter into 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 their remediation cannot be determined.
The activity related to our environmental liabilities for the six months ended June 29, 2024 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 in 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 June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the amounts due to financial institutions for suppliers that participate in these programs were $404.3 million and $397.4 million, respectively.
Argentine Blue Chip Swap
During 2019, the Argentine government instituted exchange controls restricting the ability of entities and individuals to exchange Argentine pesos for foreign currencies or remit foreign currency out of Argentina. Due to these currency exchange restrictions, markets in Argentina use a legal trading mechanism known as the Blue Chip Swap that allows entities to transfer U.S. dollars in and out of Argentina. During the three and six months ended June 29, 2024, we entered into Blue Chip Swap transactions that resulted in losses of approximately $4 million and $10 million, respectively, that we recorded in "Other expense (income), net" in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Purchases and the proceeds from sales of Argentine Blue Chip Swap securities were included in investing activities in our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
