OVERALL SCORE: 6.7/10

Context and risks

Avery Dennison operates in the packaging sector, with exposure to raw material and energy costs, but its operating margin of 13.59% and focus on high-value categories mitigate the direct impact of rising crude. The main risk is margin pressure from input costs, though not materially aggravated by the current geopolitical context.
