Organic sales increased in electrical markets, abrasives, industrial adhesives and tapes, industrial specialties, personal safety, and roofing granules and decreased in automotive aftermarket. Progress on commercial excellence and innovation drove strong growth.

Corporate: Outside of 3M's reportable segments, 3M has Corporate, which is not a reportable business segment as it does not meet the segment reporting criteria. Because Corporate includes a variety of miscellaneous items, it is subject to fluctuation on a quarterly and annual basis. Corporate is further described in Note 16.
Refer to the Certain amounts adjusted for special items - (non-GAAP measures) section below and Note 16 for details on the components of corporate special items and their impact. Corporate-level income decreased YoY in the second quarter and first six months of 2026, primarily due to Solventum-related items and corporate costs.
Certain amounts adjusted for special items - (non-GAAP measures)
In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP, 3M also provides certain non-GAAP measures. These measures are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for GAAP measures, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Certain measures adjust for the impact of special items. Special items for the periods presented include the items described in the section entitled “Description of special items”. Because 3M provides certain information with respect to business segments, it is noteworthy that special items impacting operating income (loss) are reflected in Corporate.
This document contains measures for which 3M provides the reported GAAP measure and a non-GAAP measure adjusted for special items. The document also contains additional measures which are not defined under U.S. GAAP. These measures and reasons 3M believes they are useful to investors (and, as applicable, used by 3M) include:
| GAAP amounts for which a measure adjusted for special items is also provided: | Reasons 3M believes the measure is useful |
|---|---|
| •Net sales (and sales change) | Considered in evaluating and managing operations; useful in understanding underlying business performance, provides additional transparency to special items |
| •Operating income (loss) and operating income (loss) margin | |
| •Income before taxes | |
| •Provision for income taxes and effective tax rate | |
| •Net income | |
| •EPS | |
Special items for the periods presented include:
Net costs for significant litigation and PFAS exit:
Net costs for significant litigation relate to 3M's respirator mask/asbestos (which include Aearo and non-Aearo items), PFAS-related other environmental, and Combat Arms Earplugs matters (as discussed in Note 15). Net costs include the impacts of changes in accrued liabilities (including interest imputation on applicable settlement obligations), legal costs, and insurance recoveries, along with the associated tax impacts. Associated tax impacts of significant litigation include impacts on Foreign-Derived Deduction Eligible Income ("FDDEI"), Net Controlled Foreign Corporation Tested Income ("NCTI"), foreign tax credits, and tax costs of repatriation. PFAS exit costs include amounts outside of significant litigation related to impacted site disposition and treatment post-first quarter 2026 completion of substantive PFAS product sales. 3M does not consider the elements of the net costs associated with these matters to be normal, operating expenses related to the Company’s ongoing operations, revenue generating activities, business strategy, industry, and regulatory environment.
Business acquisition-related costs
These include transaction and integration costs as applicable in the respective periods.
Gain/loss on business divestitures:
In the third quarter of 2025, 3M classified a business as held for sale. In the first half of 2026, 3M reflected an adjustment to carrying it at its selling price less cost to sell. In the second quarter of 2026, 3M recorded a loss on the divestiture of its Dyneon GmbH subsidiary. See Note 3 for additional information.
Manufactured PFAS products:
These amounts relate to sales and income (loss) regarding manufactured PFAS products that 3M exited by the end of 2025. Income does not contemplate impacts on non-operating items such as net interest income/expense and the non-service cost components portion of defined benefit plan net periodic benefit costs.
Solventum ownership - change in value:
This amount relates to the change in value of 3M's retained ownership interest in Solventum common stock reflected in other expense (income), net.
Transformation costs:
These represent net costs associated with 3M's transformation program, intended as a structural redesign of longer-term manufacturing, distribution, and business process services and locations. Accordingly, 3M does not consider the nature or effect of this program to be normal, operating expenses related to the Company’s ongoing operations, revenue generating activities, and day-to-day business strategy. Net costs include restructuring and other related items such as site closure, sale, moving and set-up, accelerated depreciation, and program management.
