Forward guidance

Aptar expects earnings per share for the third quarter of 2021, excluding any restructuring expenses, acquisition costs and changes in the fair value of equity investments, to be in the range of $0.90 to $0.98 and this guidance is based on an effective tax rate range of 28% to 30%.

Tailwinds

  • Continued gradual improvement in Aptar’s beauty and beverage businesses as the reopening of economies is expected to continue at a measured pace
  • Ongoing steady demand for elastomer components for injection devices in the third quarter
  • Consolidated margins will improve as transition to a more balanced and steady growth pattern
  • Long-term views have not changed.
  • Fundamental growth story is intact across each of our markets.

Headwinds

  • Broader macro factors impacting our business are not anticipated to change dramatically from what we experienced in the second quarter.
  • Uncertainties around the COVID-19 variants and limited resumption of intercontinental travel
  • Current inventory destocking cycle by our customers in the prescription drug market is expected to continue through the third quarter
  • Exceptionally strong custom tooling sales reported in the prior year third quarter by the Pharma segment’s active material science solutions division, is not expected to repeat.
  • Inflation and cost pressures continue to be a headwind, especially in raw material and transportation costs
