Exhibit

AI explainability — drivers, risks, next 90 days

Deploying AI-driven predictive maintenance will materially reduce unplanned equipment downtime, directly improving OEE from 68% toward 82% and extending MTBF by 60%. This initiative establishes a scalable foundation for plant-level performance, cost control, and quality assurance across Avery Dennison’s global manufacturing footprint.

Drivers
  • Granular sensor data enables early detection of failure modes
  • AI models continuously learn from plant-floor events and outcomes
  • Integration with existing MES/SCADA systems streamlines adoption
Risks
  • Data quality gaps may limit model accuracy
  • Change management resistance from plant teams
  • Upfront integration complexity with legacy equipment
Next 90 days
  • Select two pilot plants with highest breakdown rates for initial rollout
  • Establish cross-functional team to validate data sources and integration points
  • Define baseline OEE and MTBF metrics and set up executive dashboard for tracking
