AI summary
mixedClorox reported better-than-expected first quarter FY27 results, with CEO Linda Rendle citing strong execution, favorable timing and steady progress in organic sales and market share. The company now expects fiscal year input cost inflation of about $240 million, roughly $40 million above its initial expectation, driven by resin and a broad range of commodities plus transportation and supplier costs, assuming Brent averages around $100. Full-year organic sales growth is guided to 3.5% to 4.5%, including about 3.5 points from lapping the ERP transition, implying flat to up 1% excluding ERP. Mitigation leans primarily on productivity and cost savings, supplemented by targeted pricing already taken across all four reporting segments and potential additional pricing in the back half. GOJO integration is progressing, with line of sight to the full $50 million synergy target and first-year adjusted EPS accretion now expected positive rather than neutral. The Board has appointed Fabian Garcia as next CEO, effective January; Rendle remains focused on execution through the transition.
Key takeaways
- Organic sales trajectory improving sequentially; company expects flat to up 1% organic growth excluding the ERP lap benefit for the full year
- Input cost inflation outlook raised to about $240 million, roughly 2.5x the historical annual average rate, with inflation more pronounced in the first half
- Margin recovery driven majority by productivity and cost savings, with targeted pricing and RGM contributing; first quarter cost savings were among the highest on record
- Targeted pricing already implemented across all four reporting segments, including a high-single-digit increase on Glad Trash in July; additional pricing possible in the back half
- Fabian Garcia named next CEO; Linda Rendle remains focused on delivering plans until January
Financial highlights
- Full-year organic sales growth guided to 3.5% to 4.5%, including about 3.5 points of benefit from lapping the ERP transition
- Full-year input cost inflation now expected at about $240 million, about $40 million above the beginning-of-year expectation
- First quarter cost savings were one of the highest quarterly levels on record
- GOJO acquisition first-year adjusted EPS impact revised to positive from an initial estimate of about neutral
Guidance
- Organic sales growth excluding ERP impact expected flat to plus 1% for the full year, down slightly in the front half and up slightly in the back half
- Second quarter organic sales expected flat to down 2%, reflecting shipment comparison and merchandising timing dynamics
- Gross margin expected to compress on average for the full year, with front half about 1 to 1.5 points below the average and the back half higher; company expects to exit the year with much stronger gross margin
- SG&A outlook adjusted from 16% to 15%, partly reflecting accelerated GOJO synergies, with rounding noted
Q&A themes
- Commodity cost inflation assumptions and phasing, including resin, transportation and a Brent assumption of around $100
- Mitigation mix of cost savings, RGM and targeted pricing, and confidence in back-half margin recovery
- Market share performance by category, including gains in Home Care, Brita, Hidden Valley and Kingsford, with Litter still a drag
- GOJO integration progress and line of sight to the full $50 million synergy target
Risks
- Input cost environment remains volatile and uncertain, with inflation broader than energy alone and potentially exceeding current assumptions
- Consumer value-seeking behavior and elevated competitive activity could pressure volumes and share, particularly in Litter
- Pricing actions take time to flow through margins, and additional pricing may be needed if commodity pressure persists
FY2026 Q42026-08-03

AI summary
mixedCEO Linda Rendle said FY2026 ran in a dynamic environment of value-seeking consumers, heightened competition and inflation, and that most businesses met or exceeded expectations while actions were taken where they fell short. For FY2027, Clorox expects category growth consistent with FY2026, continued market share progress after sequential improvement in FY2026 (aggregate share down one-tenth of a point, June exit rate nearly flat), and a slower Q1 driven mainly by Kingsford grilling timing and merchandising. CFO Luc Bellet guided FY2027 inflation above $200 million (more than double the historical $75-100 million range), weighted to the first half, assuming Brent crude around $90 per barrel, with productivity the primary offset and strategic pricing secondary; gross margin should begin recovering in the back half. GOJO/Purell is performing ahead of plan, was accretive rather than dilutive in Q4, and is expected to be accretive to adjusted EPS next fiscal year. Rendle also addressed her planned CEO transition, saying she is cancer-free and the Board's search is progressing as expected.
Key takeaways
- Most businesses performed at or above expectations in FY2026; decisive actions were taken where performance lagged, and management cited sequential improvement in consumption and share (aggregate share down 0.1 point, June exit rate nearly flat)
- Q1 FY2027 is expected to be a timing-related 'blip,' mainly Kingsford grilling seasonality and merchandising choices, with trends expected closer to FY2026 levels, particularly in the back half
- Home Care posted 8 consecutive quarters of share growth; Glad and Hidden Valley Ranch showed share turnarounds, while Litter/Fresh Step remains early in its fix and Kingsford was hit by weather-disrupted grilling holidays
- GOJO integration is going as planned and in some places slightly ahead; the business beat its Q4 targets and is expected to grow mid-single digit, moving to mid- to high single digits as revenue synergies materialize
- The ERP implementation is complete and the company is in stabilization mode, with optimization and productivity benefits expected later this fiscal year and into next fiscal year
Financial highlights
- FY2027 inflation expected above $200 million, more than double the historical $75 million to $100 million range, with the impact more pronounced in the first half
- FY2027 outlook assumes average Brent crude oil of about $90 per barrel; inflation also spans supplier costs, ocean freight, trucking and other logistics
- GOJO adds roughly 0.5 point of gross margin dilution, less than 1 point of SG&A and about 1 point lower advertising as a percent of sales versus legacy Clorox
- Interest expense for FY2027 is about $210 million; free cash flow is expected in the 11% to 13% of sales targeted range
Guidance
- Organic sales outlook of flat to up slightly, with net pricing positive and volume negative per management's construct
- Gross margin guided at about 42%, with gross margin recovery expected to begin in the back half; full-year gross margin is not expected to be fully recovered
- EPS growth guidance range is wider than usual due to cost/commodity environment and timing; the main EPS impact is the lower gross margin
- Advertising and sales promotion at about 10% of sales including GOJO; excluding GOJO, spending is over 11% of sales, phased like prior years with heavier spending in Q3 and Q4
Q&A themes
- Category growth and market share trajectory, including Q1 timing versus full-year improvement
- Pricing strategy: targeted/strategic pricing including a Glad trash increase, versus limited broad pricing amid value-seeking consumers
- Inflation and gross margin bridge, with productivity as the primary offset and back-half margin recovery
- GOJO integration and financial impacts, plus Fresh Step/Litter turnaround and ERP-enabled productivity
Risks
- Inflation above $200 million, more than double the historical range, is concentrated in the first half and extends beyond energy into logistics and supplier costs
- Consumer value-seeking behavior and muted category growth, plus competitive activity, could pressure share, particularly in Litter and Kingsford
- Geopolitical volatility (Middle East, oil prices) and promotional/merchandising timing create uncertainty in the outlook
