AptarGroup Squeezes Out Modest Growth

AptarGroup Inc. (NYSE: ATR) released better-than-expected third-quarter 2017 results on Thursday after the market closed, detailing strong demand across its portfolio of products led by the consumer healthcare and injectables markets. Similar to last quarter, though, AptarGroup's Beauty and Home segment still lagged the others -- though it has a plan to return the troublesome business to profitable growth -- and the company once again issued seemingly conservative earnings guidance for the coming quarter.

With AptarGroup shares down 1.2% on Friday, let's take a deeper look at how the dispensing systems specialist started the second half of the year.
