Avery Dennison Corporation (AVY) sells things that stick. Avery Dennison’s primary business is the production of pressure-sensitive materials and a variety of tickets, tags, labels and other products that are converted into labels. Avery Dennison also sells related non-pressure sensitive products such as fasteners, tickets, tags, radio-frequency identification (“RFID”) tags, imprinting equipment and related services to retailers, apparel manufacturers and brand owners.
Avery Dennison’s business is global in scale with 75% of sales accounted for internationally. Sales in the PSM segment are not highly seasonal, while the segment is highly seasonal with peaks in advance of the spring, fall and holiday shopping seasons. Avery Dennison should only be considered by battle tested dividend investors who are willing to take on a little more risk, as the company has cut its dividend in the recent past even though it had the capacity to pay it, and due to seasonality in the business there is volatility in earnings reports.
