Overview. ACCO delivered a strong second quarter, with sales and adjusted EPS exceeding both prior-year results and our estimates. In the Americas segment, sales benefited from strong back-to-school sell-in and better-than-expected performance in Mexico. The International segment faced market softness and shipment disruptions from a planned systems upgrade at ACCO’s largest distribution center in EMEA, which is now complete.
2Q26 Results. Second quarter net sales increased 5.1% to $415.1 million from $394.8 million in 2025. The increase reflected 5.7% from the EPOS acquisition and 1.7% from favorable foreign exchange. Comparable sales declined 2.3% as growth in the Americas segment’s learning and creative category was more than offset by softness in the International segment and technology peripherals globally. Net income was $14.1 million, or $0.15/sh, compared with $29.2 million, or $0.31/sh, in 2025. Adjusted net income increased to $27.4 million from $25.8 million in 2025, and adjusted EPS rose to $0.29 from $0.28 in 2025.
