I can't replicate your problem.  With the following:

---- test.xml ----
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="test.xsl" ?>
<XML-MSG>
	<SERVICE-INFO>
		<OUTPUT>
			<Result>
				<headline>Nothing&apos;s wrong!</headline>
			</Result>
		</OUTPUT>
	</SERVICE-INFO>
</XML-MSG>
----

---- test.xsl ----
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
                xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:output method="xml"/>

<xsl:template match="/">
	<xsl:variable name="cardTitle"
select="XML-MSG/SERVICE-INFO/OUTPUT/Result/headline" />
	<card id="News" title="{$cardTitle}" />
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
----

I get the output (using SAXON) of:

---- out.xml ----
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<card id="News" title="Nothing's wrong!"/>
----

The apostrophe in the output will always have exactly the same effect as if
it had been escaped as &apos;, but from what you were saying I don't think
that was your problem.  Certainly, there is no &amp; in the output.

As Mike said, posting the XML source that you're using and a bit more of
the context of the stylesheet might help us give a better clue about what's
going wrong for you.

Cheers,
