SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of AptarGroup, Inc. and our subsidiaries. The terms “AptarGroup,” “Aptar,” “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” as used herein refer to AptarGroup, Inc. and our subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
In the opinion of management, the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (the “Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements”) include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Also, certain financial position data included herein was derived from the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. The results of operations of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year.
Amounts reported in thousands within this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q are computed based on actual amounts. As a result, the sum of the components may not equal the total amount reported due to rounding. In addition, certain columns and rows within tables may not sum to the reported totals due to the use of rounded numbers. Percentages presented are calculated from the underlying unrounded amounts.
RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Changes to U.S. GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ("DISE"), which requires the disaggregation of certain expenses in the notes to the financial statements, to provide enhanced transparency into the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01 clarifying the effective date. This standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The requirements will be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective adoption. We are evaluating the impact of the standard on our disclosures in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Amendments to the Accounting for Software Costs. The update removes the "project stage" model for internal-use software and replaces it with a principles-based capitalization framework. Under the new guidance, capitalization begins when it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will perform as intended, and after management has authorized and committed to funding the project. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We are evaluating the impact of this guidance on our disclosures in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies did not have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
INCOME TAXES
We compute taxes on income in accordance with the tax rules and regulations of the many taxing authorities where the income is earned. The income tax rates imposed by these taxing authorities may vary substantially. Taxable income may differ from pre-tax income for U.S. GAAP financial accounting purposes. To the extent that these differences create temporary differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and our reported amount in the U.S. GAAP financial statements, an appropriate provision for deferred income taxes is made.
We maintain our assertion that the cash and distributable reserves at our non-U.S. affiliates are indefinitely reinvested with the following exceptions: 2025 and 2026 earnings for Aptar France, all earnings in Germany and the pre-2020 earnings in Italy, Switzerland and Colombia. Under currently enacted laws, we do not have a balance of foreign earnings that will be subject to U.S. taxation upon repatriation. We will provide for the necessary withholding and local income taxes when management decides that an affiliate should make a distribution. These decisions are made taking into consideration the financial requirements of the non-U.S. affiliates and our global cash management goals. See Note 5 – Income Taxes for more information.
We provide a liability for the amount of unrecognized tax benefits on uncertain tax positions. This liability is provided whenever we determine that a tax benefit will not meet a more-likely-than-not threshold for recognition.
We are subject to the examination of our returns and other tax matters by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities and government bodies. We believe that we have adequately provided a tax reserve for any adjustments that may result from tax examinations or uncertain tax positions. However, the outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty. If any issues addressed in our tax audits are resolved in a manner inconsistent with our expectations, we could be required to adjust our provision for income taxes in the period such resolution occurs. The resolution of each of these audits is not expected to be material to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
SUPPLY CHAIN FINANCE PROGRAM
We regularly renegotiate our supplier contracts and as a result have been successful in securing extended payment terms with many of our suppliers to be in line with local and regional trends. We facilitate a supply chain finance program (“SCF”) across Europe and the U.S. that is administered by a third-party platform. Eligible suppliers can elect to receive early payment of invoices, less an interest deduction, and negotiate their receivable sales arrangements through the third-party platform on behalf of the respective SCF bank. We are not a party to those agreements, and the terms of our payment obligations are not impacted by a supplier's participation in the SCF. The Company's responsibility under the agreements is limited to making payment to the financial institutions for confirmed invoices based on the terms originally negotiated with its suppliers. Accordingly, we have concluded that this program continues to be a trade payable program and is not indicative of a borrowing arrangement. Under these agreements, the average payment terms range from 60 to 120 days and are based on industry standards and best practices within each of our regions.
All outstanding amounts related to suppliers participating in the SCF are recorded within accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and associated payments are included in operating activities within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. As of June 30, 2026, the amounts due to suppliers participating in the SCF and included in accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities were approximately $36.5 million.
To the extent our financial position allows and we believe there is a clear financial benefit, we may benefit from early payment discounts with some suppliers. While we have offered third party alternatives for our suppliers to receive payments sooner, we generally do not utilize these offerings from our customers as current economic conditions do not make them beneficial for us.
