Bloomberg•6 days agoP&G Has Little to Show a Year After Investor Face-Off
Activist investor Nelson Peltz had been agitating for a spot on P&G’s board as he called for a long list of changes, and the consumer-goods giant had spent big money to try secure enough votes to deny him a seat at the table. Ultimately, after an extremely close vote, Peltz ended up joining the board, and the feeling was that things were going to change. P&G’s baby-care business had a particularly rough year, as its Luvs brand was pummeled in the U.S. by private-label diaper lines with ultra-low price tags. And the Gillette razor business remains under pressure several years after Dollar Shave Club and others of its ilk first began rattling the market share leader.
Market Realist•7 days agoWhy Goldman Sachs Downgraded Kimberly-Clark Stock
On October 8, Goldman Sachs downgraded Kimberly-Clark (KMB) stock to “neutral” from “buy” and lowered the target price from $120 to $119 per share. Continued inflation in input cost and weakness in the personal care segment could restrict the growth for Kimberly-Clark. Also, the company’s current valuations don’t seem attractive. Kimberly-Clark stock trades at 17.2x the estimated 2018 EPS of $6.66 and 16.3x the estimated 2019 EPS of $6.99. Both these multiples look expensive based on the projected growth rate of 6.9% and 5.0% in those periods.
