3M reported strong results for the second quarter of 2025, with adjusted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations reaching $2.16, a 12% increase year-over-year. The company's adjusted operating income margin expanded significantly by 290 basis points to 24.5%.
Organic sales grew by 1.5% in the quarter, marking the third consecutive quarter of positive growth across all three business groups: Safety and Industrial, Transportation and Electronics, and Consumer. This performance highlights the effectiveness of the 3M eXcellence operating model.
Based on its solid first-half results, 3M increased its full-year 2025 adjusted EPS guidance to a range of $7.75 to $8.00, up from the previous $7.60 to $7.90. This updated guidance now embeds the expected impact of tariffs, with a gross tariff headwind of $0.20 for the year, largely offset by mitigation actions.
