(NYSE:ATR), a global leader in drug delivery and consumer product dispensing, dosing and protection technologies, today reported the following first quarter results for the period ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the corresponding period of the last fiscal year.
First Quarter 2026 Highlights
(Compared to the prior year quarter; see Non-GAAP section for full definitions; see reconciliation for Non-GAAP measures)
- Reported sales increased 11% and core sales were flat
- Reported net income decreased 8% to $73 million and reported earnings per share decreased 4% to $1.12
- Adjusted earnings per share were $1.19, a decrease of 8%, compared to the prior year at constant currency
- Adjusted EBITDA margin was 19.2% compared to 20.7% in the prior year

“Across the broader Pharma portfolio, we continue to see growing demand in key areas including GLP‑1 therapies, biologics, systemic nasal drug delivery, nasal decongestants, ophthalmic dispensing, and active material solutions. As anticipated, first quarter results were impacted by emergency medicine destocking, with comparisons further challenged by the exceptionally strong prior-year quarter for the prescription division. The injectables division delivered another quarter of strong, double-digit growth. Consumer dispensing also contributed positively, with volume growth across Beauty and Closures, supported by robust demand in prestige fragrance and beverage applications,” said Stephan B. Tanda, Aptar President and CEO.
First Quarter Results
For the quarter ended March 31, 2026, reported sales increased 11% to $982.9 million compared to $887.3 million in the prior year period. Core sales were flat compared to the prior year period.

| First Quarter Segment Sales Analysis (Change Over Prior Year) |
| Reported Sales Growth | 7% | 19% | 5% | 11% |
| Currency Effects | (7)% | (9)% | (5)% | (8)% |
| Acquisitions | (1)% | (7)% | 0% | (3)% |
| Core Sales Growth | (1)% | 3% | 0% | 0% |
(1) - Currency effects are approximated by translating last year's amounts at this year's foreign exchange rates.
Pharma’s reported sales increased 7% when compared to the prior year period, with a currency contribution of 7%. Excluding acquisitions, core sales declined 1% in the quarter when compared to the prior year period. In the prescription division, sales for dispensing systems declined 10% primarily due to reduced sales in the emergency medicine category, as anticipated, while the pipeline for systemic nasal drug delivery continued to build. Consumer healthcare sales increased 4% on strong nasal decongestant and eye care solutions. Sales in the injectables division increased 20%, mainly driven by growth in demand for elastomeric components used for GLP-1, biologics and antithrombotics. Active material science solutions declined 1% due primarily to lower sales for diabetes test strips and probiotics. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 33.3%, a decrease of 150 basis points, reflecting a less favorable product mix, while royalties continued to positively impact margins.
Beauty’s reported sales increased 19% when compared to the prior year period, driven by a 9% benefit from currency changes and a 7% contribution from acquisitions, with core sales growth of 3%. There was increased demand for fragrance dispensing, as well as hair care and body care applications. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 11.1%, a decline of 100 basis points, due to less favorable product mix, primarily in North America and isolated operational disruptions at a supplier as reported last quarter.
Closures’ reported sales rose 5% from the prior year quarter and core sales were flat, with a 5% currency benefit. While product volumes were up, core sales results were negatively impacted by the pass through of lower resin pricing. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 13.1%, a decline of 270 basis points, primarily due to the previously reported maintenance issues, temporary plant closures as a result of extreme weather in North America and certain investment write offs.
Reported first quarter earnings per share were $1.12 compared to $1.17 reported a year ago. Adjusted earnings per share were $1.19, compared to the prior year period’s adjusted earnings per share of $1.30, including comparable exchange rates. The first quarter reported effective tax rate was 22.4% and the adjusted effective tax rate was 22.6%, compared to the prior year period’s reported and adjusted effective tax rates of 25.8%.
Outlook
Regarding Aptar’s outlook, Tanda stated, “Looking ahead to Q2, excluding destocking in emergency medicine within Pharma, we anticipate a solid quarter with growth across each segment. Outside of the emergency medicine end market, our prescription division is expected to return to healthy growth, and we anticipate growth across a number of pharma end markets mainly due to strength in our injectables and consumer healthcare divisions. We also anticipate a strong quarter for Closures and continued growth in Beauty, particularly in fragrance. Heading into the quarter, we remain mindful of potential supply‑chain uncertainties as we continue to operate in a dynamic environment.”
Aptar currently expects adjusted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2026 to be in the range of $1.32 to $1.40. This guidance assumes an effective tax rate range of 22.5% to 24.5%. The earnings per share guidance range is assuming a 1.18 Euro to USD exchange rate.
Cash Dividends and Share Repurchases
As previously announced, Aptar’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.48 per share. The payment date is May 27, 2026, to stockholders of record as of May 6, 2026. During the first quarter, Aptar repurchased 707 thousand shares for $100 million. Aptar may repurchase shares through the open market, privately negotiated transactions or other programs, subject to market conditions.

Presentation of Non-GAAP Information
This press release refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures, including current year adjusted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA, which exclude the impact of restructuring initiatives, acquisition-related costs, certain purchase accounting adjustments related to acquisitions and investments and net unrealized investment gains and losses related to observable market price changes on equity securities, and other special items. Core sales and adjusted earnings per share also neutralize the impact of foreign currency translation effects when comparing current results to the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before net interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, restructuring initiatives, acquisition-related costs, net unrealized investment gains and losses related to observable market price changes on equity securities and other special items. For the quarter ended March 31, 2026, “Other special items” include costs incurred related to non-ordinary-course litigation, specifically: lawsuits between Aptar and ARS Pharmaceuticals, Inc., involving Aptar’s claims of trade-secret misappropriation and contractual breaches and ARS’s lawsuit against Aptar under U.S. antitrust laws; and patent infringement actions filed by Nemera La Verpillière SAS in Germany and France relating to certain of Aptar’s ophthalmic products. These costs are excluded because they do not reflect our core operating performance. Please refer to “Legal Proceedings” within Note 13 - Commitments and Contingencies within Aptar’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and subsequent SEC filings for more information. Adjusted EBITDA margin is adjusted EBITDA divided by reported net sales. Non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures provided by other companies. Aptar’s management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to our investors because they allow for a better period over period comparison of operating results by removing the impact of items that, in management’s view, do not reflect Aptar’s core operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures also provide investors with certain information used by Aptar’s management when making financial and operational decisions. Free cash flow is calculated as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures plus proceeds from government grants related to capital expenditures. We believe that it is meaningful to investors in evaluating our financial performance and measuring our ability to generate cash internally to fund our initiatives. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial results but should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and other information presented herein. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is included in the accompanying tables. Our outlook is provided on a non-GAAP basis because certain reconciling items are dependent on future events that either cannot be controlled, such as exchange rates and changes in the fair value of equity investments, or reliably predicted because they are not part of the company's routine activities, such as restructuring, acquisition costs and other special items.
