[10-Q] Church & Dwight Co., Inc. Quarterly Earnings Report
Church & Dwight (CHD) posted weaker Q2 25 results. Net sales were nearly flat at $1.51 bn (-0.3 % YoY) but gross margin fell 420 bps to 42.9 %, reflecting $30.4 m inventory and fixed-asset impairment tied to the planned exit of Flawless, Spinbrush and Waterpik showerhead lines. Operating income dropped 22 % to $261.7 m and diluted EPS declined to $0.78 from $0.99.
For 1H 25, revenue slipped 1.4 % to $2.97 bn while net income slid 13 % to $411.1 m; diluted EPS was $1.66 (vs. $1.91). Cash from operations contracted 17 % to $416.5 m, pressured by a $186 m working-capital build (mainly lower accrued marketing and payables). CHD still closed the half with $923 m cash and $2.21 bn long-term debt.
Segment mix shifted: Consumer Domestic sales dipped 1.4 % but International rose 5.3 %; Specialty Products Division fell 3 %. Depreciation & amortization was $117.5 m YTD; amortization expense is expected to run ~$104 m for FY 25.
Capital allocation: In May the company launched a $300 m accelerated share repurchase (2.8 m shares already received) under its evergreen program; $659 m remains authorized. Dividends paid YTD totaled $145 m ($0.59/sh).
Subsequent events (post-quarter): 1) $700 m Touchland acquisition (hand-sanitizer brand) with up to $180 m earn-out; majority of purchase price expected to be assigned to the trade name. 2) New $2.0 bn revolving credit agreement (option to $2.75 bn) maturing 2030, replacing prior $1.5 bn facility.
Management is also conducting a strategic review of the vitamins business after a 2024 impairment and is addressing tariff exposure (~$60 m annualised) via supply-chain actions and selective price increases.
Church & Dwight (CHD) ha riportato risultati del secondo trimestre 25 più deboli. Le vendite nette sono rimaste quasi stabili a 1,51 miliardi di dollari (-0,3% su base annua), ma il margine lordo è sceso di 420 punti base al 42,9%, a causa di una svalutazione di inventario e immobilizzazioni per 30,4 milioni di dollari legata all'uscita pianificata delle linee Flawless, Spinbrush e Waterpik per soffioni doccia. L'utile operativo è calato del 22% a 261,7 milioni di dollari e l'utile diluito per azione è sceso da 0,99 a 0,78 dollari.
Nel primo semestre 25, i ricavi sono diminuiti dell'1,4% a 2,97 miliardi di dollari mentre l'utile netto è sceso del 13% a 411,1 milioni; l'utile diluito per azione è stato di 1,66 dollari (contro 1,91). La liquidità generata dalle operazioni si è ridotta del 17% a 416,5 milioni, penalizzata da un aumento del capitale circolante di 186 milioni (principalmente minori accantonamenti per marketing e debiti verso fornitori). CHD ha comunque chiuso il semestre con 923 milioni di dollari in cassa e 2,21 miliardi di dollari di debito a lungo termine.
La composizione dei segmenti è cambiata: le vendite Consumer Domestic sono diminuite dell'1,4%, mentre quelle internazionali sono aumentate del 5,3%; la Specialty Products Division è calata del 3%. L'ammortamento e le svalutazioni sono stati pari a 117,5 milioni dall'inizio dell'anno; si prevede un ammortamento annuo di circa 104 milioni per il 25.
Allocazione del capitale: a maggio l'azienda ha avviato un programma di riacquisto accelerato di azioni per 300 milioni di dollari (2,8 milioni di azioni già acquistate) nell'ambito del programma evergreen; rimangono autorizzati 659 milioni. I dividendi pagati da inizio anno ammontano a 145 milioni di dollari (0,59 dollari per azione).
Eventi successivi (post-trimestre): 1) acquisizione di Touchland per 700 milioni di dollari (marchio di disinfettanti per mani) con un earn-out fino a 180 milioni; la maggior parte del prezzo di acquisto sarà assegnata al nome commerciale. 2) Nuovo accordo di linea di credito revolving da 2,0 miliardi di dollari (opzione fino a 2,75 miliardi) con scadenza 2030, che sostituisce la precedente linea da 1,5 miliardi.
La direzione sta inoltre conducendo una revisione strategica del business delle vitamine dopo una svalutazione nel 2024 e sta affrontando l'esposizione ai dazi (~60 milioni annualizzati) tramite azioni sulla catena di approvvigionamento e aumenti selettivi dei prezzi.
Church & Dwight (CHD) publicó resultados más débiles en el segundo trimestre 25. Las ventas netas se mantuvieron casi planas en 1,51 mil millones de dólares (-0,3 % interanual), pero el margen bruto cayó 420 puntos básicos hasta el 42,9 %, reflejando una pérdida por deterioro de inventario y activos fijos de 30,4 millones ligada a la salida planeada de las líneas Flawless, Spinbrush y Waterpik de cabezales de ducha. El ingreso operativo bajó un 22 % a 261,7 millones y las ganancias diluidas por acción cayeron de 0,99 a 0,78 dólares.
En el primer semestre 25, los ingresos disminuyeron un 1,4 % a 2,97 mil millones, mientras que la utilidad neta bajó un 13 % a 411,1 millones; las ganancias diluidas por acción fueron de 1,66 dólares (frente a 1,91). El flujo de caja operativo se redujo un 17 % a 416,5 millones, presionado por un aumento de 186 millones en capital de trabajo (principalmente menores provisiones de marketing y cuentas por pagar). CHD cerró el semestre con 923 millones en efectivo y 2,21 mil millones en deuda a largo plazo.
La composición por segmentos cambió: las ventas domésticas al consumidor bajaron un 1,4 %, pero las internacionales aumentaron un 5,3 %; la división de productos especializados cayó un 3 %. La depreciación y amortización sumaron 117,5 millones en lo que va del año; se espera un gasto de amortización de aproximadamente 104 millones para el año fiscal 25.
Asignación de capital: en mayo la compañía lanzó una recompra acelerada de acciones por 300 millones de dólares (ya se recibieron 2,8 millones de acciones) bajo su programa evergreen; quedan autorizados 659 millones. Los dividendos pagados en el año suman 145 millones (0,59 dólares por acción).
Eventos posteriores (post-trimestre): 1) adquisición de Touchland por 700 millones de dólares (marca de desinfectantes para manos) con un earn-out de hasta 180 millones; se espera que la mayoría del precio de compra se asigne al nombre comercial. 2) Nuevo acuerdo de línea de crédito revolvente de 2.000 millones de dólares (opción a 2.750 millones) con vencimiento en 2030, que reemplaza la anterior línea de 1.500 millones.
La dirección también está realizando una revisión estratégica del negocio de vitaminas tras un deterioro en 2024 y está abordando la exposición a aranceles (~60 millones anualizados) mediante acciones en la cadena de suministro y aumentos selectivos de precios.
Church & Dwight (CHD)는 25년 2분기 실적이 약화되었습니다. 순매출은 거의 변동 없이 15억 1천만 달러(-0.3% 전년 대비)를 기록했으나, 총이익률은 420bp 하락한 42.9%를 나타냈으며, 이는 Flawless, Spinbrush, Waterpik 샤워기 라인 철수 계획과 관련된 3,040만 달러의 재고 및 유형자산 손상차손 때문입니다. 영업이익은 22% 감소한 2억 6,170만 달러, 희석 주당순이익은 0.99달러에서 0.78달러로 하락했습니다.
25년 상반기 매출은 29억 7천만 달러로 1.4% 감소했고, 순이익은 4억 1,110만 달러로 13% 줄었으며, 희석 주당순이익은 1.66달러(이전 1.91달러)였습니다. 영업활동 현금흐름은 17% 감소한 4억 1,650만 달러로, 주로 마케팅 미지급금 및 지급채무 감소로 인한 1억 8,600만 달러의 운전자본 증가 압박을 받았습니다. CHD는 여전히 9억 2,300만 달러 현금과 22억 1천만 달러 장기부채를 보유한 상태로 반기를 마감했습니다.
부문별 구성은 변동이 있었습니다: 국내 소비자 매출은 1.4% 감소했으나, 국제 매출은 5.3% 증가했고, 전문제품 부문은 3% 하락했습니다. 연초부터 감가상각비는 1억 1,750만 달러였으며, 25 회계연도 감가상각비는 약 1억 400만 달러로 예상됩니다.
자본 배분: 5월에 회사는 상시 프로그램 하에 3억 달러 규모의 가속 주식 환매를 시작했으며(이미 280만 주를 수령), 6억 5,900만 달러가 여전히 승인되어 있습니다. 올해 지급된 배당금은 총 1억 4,500만 달러(주당 0.59달러)입니다.
후속 사건 (분기 이후): 1) 7억 달러 규모의 Touchland 인수(손 소독제 브랜드)와 최대 1억 8,000만 달러의 추가 지급 조건; 구매 가격 대부분이 상표명에 배분될 것으로 예상됩니다. 2) 2030년 만기, 기존 15억 달러 시설을 대체하는 20억 달러(옵션 27.5억 달러) 규모의 신규 회전 신용 계약 체결.
경영진은 또한 2024년 손상차손 이후 비타민 사업에 대한 전략적 검토를 진행 중이며, 공급망 조치 및 선택적 가격 인상을 통해 관세 노출(연간 약 6,000만 달러)을 해결하고 있습니다.
Church & Dwight (CHD) a publié des résultats plus faibles pour le deuxième trimestre 25. Les ventes nettes sont restées quasiment stables à 1,51 milliard de dollars (-0,3 % en glissement annuel), mais la marge brute a chuté de 420 points de base à 42,9 %, reflétant une dépréciation des stocks et des immobilisations de 30,4 millions liée à la sortie prévue des gammes Flawless, Spinbrush et Waterpik de pommeaux de douche. Le résultat d'exploitation a diminué de 22 % à 261,7 millions et le BPA dilué est passé de 0,99 à 0,78 dollar.
Pour le premier semestre 25, le chiffre d'affaires a reculé de 1,4 % à 2,97 milliards tandis que le bénéfice net a diminué de 13 % à 411,1 millions ; le BPA dilué s'établissait à 1,66 dollar (contre 1,91). La trésorerie générée par les opérations a diminué de 17 % à 416,5 millions, sous la pression d'une augmentation du fonds de roulement de 186 millions (principalement due à une baisse des provisions marketing et des comptes fournisseurs). CHD a toutefois clôturé le semestre avec 923 millions de dollars en liquidités et 2,21 milliards de dollars de dette à long terme.
La répartition par segment a évolué : les ventes domestiques aux consommateurs ont reculé de 1,4 %, mais les ventes internationales ont augmenté de 5,3 % ; la division Produits Spécialisés a diminué de 3 %. Les amortissements et dépréciations s'élèvent à 117,5 millions depuis le début de l'année ; la charge d'amortissement prévue pour l'exercice 25 est d'environ 104 millions.
Allocation du capital : En mai, la société a lancé un programme de rachat accéléré d'actions de 300 millions de dollars (2,8 millions d'actions déjà reçues) dans le cadre de son programme evergreen ; 659 millions restent autorisés. Les dividendes versés depuis le début de l'année s'élèvent à 145 millions (0,59 dollar par action).
Événements postérieurs (post-trimestre) : 1) acquisition de Touchland pour 700 millions de dollars (marque de désinfectants pour les mains) avec un earn-out pouvant atteindre 180 millions ; la majorité du prix d'achat devrait être attribuée au nom commercial. 2) Nouveau contrat de crédit renouvelable de 2,0 milliards de dollars (option à 2,75 milliards) arrivant à échéance en 2030, remplaçant l'ancienne facilité de 1,5 milliard.
La direction mène également une revue stratégique de l'activité vitamines après une dépréciation en 2024 et gère l'exposition aux droits de douane (~60 millions annualisés) via des actions sur la chaîne d'approvisionnement et des augmentations de prix sélectives.
Church & Dwight (CHD) veröffentlichte schwächere Ergebnisse für das zweite Quartal 25. Der Nettoumsatz blieb mit 1,51 Mrd. USD nahezu unverändert (-0,3 % im Jahresvergleich), jedoch fiel die Bruttomarge um 420 Basispunkte auf 42,9 %, was auf eine Wertminderung von 30,4 Mio. USD bei Lagerbeständen und Sachanlagen im Zusammenhang mit dem geplanten Ausstieg aus den Produktlinien Flawless, Spinbrush und Waterpik-Duschköpfen zurückzuführen ist. Das Betriebsergebnis sank um 22 % auf 261,7 Mio. USD und der verwässerte Gewinn je Aktie fiel von 0,99 auf 0,78 USD.
Für das erste Halbjahr 25 sanken die Umsatzerlöse um 1,4 % auf 2,97 Mrd. USD, während der Nettogewinn um 13 % auf 411,1 Mio. USD zurückging; der verwässerte Gewinn je Aktie lag bei 1,66 USD (gegenüber 1,91). Der operative Cashflow schrumpfte um 17 % auf 416,5 Mio. USD, belastet durch einen Anstieg des Working Capitals um 186 Mio. USD (hauptsächlich geringere Marketingrückstellungen und Verbindlichkeiten). CHD schloss das Halbjahr dennoch mit 923 Mio. USD Bargeld und 2,21 Mrd. USD langfristigen Schulden ab.
Die Segmentzusammensetzung verschob sich: Die Consumer Domestic Umsätze sanken um 1,4 %, während die internationalen Umsätze um 5,3 % stiegen; die Specialty Products Division fiel um 3 %. Die Abschreibungen und Amortisationen beliefen sich im bisherigen Jahr auf 117,5 Mio. USD; für das Geschäftsjahr 25 wird eine Amortisationsaufwendung von rund 104 Mio. USD erwartet.
Kapitalallokation: Im Mai startete das Unternehmen ein beschleunigtes Aktienrückkaufprogramm über 300 Mio. USD (bereits 2,8 Mio. Aktien erhalten) im Rahmen des Evergreen-Programms; 659 Mio. USD sind weiterhin genehmigt. Die bisher im Jahr gezahlten Dividenden beliefen sich auf 145 Mio. USD (0,59 USD pro Aktie).
Nachfolgende Ereignisse (nach Quartalsende): 1) 700 Mio. USD Übernahme von Touchland (Handdesinfektionsmittel-Marke) mit bis zu 180 Mio. USD Earn-out; der Großteil des Kaufpreises wird voraussichtlich dem Markennamen zugeordnet. 2) Neuer revolvierender Kreditvertrag über 2,0 Mrd. USD (Option auf 2,75 Mrd. USD) mit Laufzeit bis 2030, der die vorherige 1,5 Mrd. USD-Fazilität ersetzt.
Das Management führt zudem eine strategische Überprüfung des Vitamin-Geschäfts nach einer Wertminderung im Jahr 2024 durch und begegnet der Zollexposition (~60 Mio. USD jährlich) durch Maßnahmen in der Lieferkette und selektive Preiserhöhungen.

Insights
TL;DR: Margin compression and impairments drove a 22 % EPS drop; cash returns and M&A keep growth narrative alive.
Earnings quality: Core profitability weakened; excluding the $51 m exit charge, operating income still fell ~8 %, indicating broader cost pressure.
Cash flow: FCF remains solid ($377 m after capex) but working-capital outflow bears watching as promotional accruals normalise.
Leverage & liquidity: Net debt/EBITDA is roughly 2.1×; the expanded revolver provides ample head-room for the $700 m Touchland deal and ongoing buybacks.
Strategic fit: Touchland adds a fast-growing personal-care brand, offsetting lost revenue from discontinued lines. Execution risk revolves around integration and pricing in a crowded sanitiser market.
Valuation impact: Near-term EPS headwinds likely pressure multiples, but long-term brand portfolio reshaping and continued dividend/buyback support offer downside protection.
TL;DR: Operational exits, tariff exposure and new leverage elevate risk profile despite healthy cash cushion.
1) Operational risk: Exiting three businesses removes ~$170 m sales and triggers $51 m in write-offs; additional impairments possible if WATERPIK or VMS trends worsen.
2) Macroeconomic/tariff risk: Management projects $60 m gross tariff costs; mitigation depends on supply-chain shifts that could face timing delays.
3) Financial risk: Expanded revolver raises potential leverage, particularly with contingent Touchland earn-outs; covenant headroom appears comfortable but interest-rate exposure rises.
4) Reputational/ESG: No new litigation disclosed; continued share repurchases amid earnings decline could attract scrutiny.

Church & Dwight (CHD)는 25년 2분기 실적이 약화되었습니다. 순매출은 거의 변동 없이 15억 1천만 달러(-0.3% 전년 대비)를 기록했으나, 총이익률은 420bp 하락한 42.9%를 나타냈으며, 이는 Flawless, Spinbrush, Waterpik 샤워기 라인 철수 계획과 관련된 3,040만 달러의 재고 및 유형자산 손상차손 때문입니다. 영업이익은 22% 감소한 2억 6,170만 달러, 희석 주당순이익은 0.99달러에서 0.78달러로 하락했습니다.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant expenses. The amendments require public entities to disclose significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within segment profit and loss. The standard was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company has adopted the standard retrospectively to all prior periods in the financial statements, which resulted in additional disclosures. Refer to Note 18 for additional information.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosure which includes amendments that further expand income tax disclosures, by requiring the disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation table, and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and are to be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on the Company’s related disclosures.

Basic EPS is calculated based on income available to holders of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the reported period. Diluted EPS includes additional dilution from potential Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Company's stock-based compensation plans.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding to the weighted average number of shares outstanding on a diluted basis:

The Company's Long-Term Incentive Program (“LTIP”) provides employees with an award of stock options and grants of restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and grants of performance share units ("PSUs") to members of the Company's Executive Leadership
9
Team ("ELT"). Awards are granted in the first quarter of each year. The Company recognizes the grant-date fair value for each of these awards, less estimated forfeitures, as compensation expense ratably over the vesting period. For employees and directors that meet retirement eligibility requirements, the expense related to share-based compensation is recognized on the date of grant as there is no future service period required for the awards to vest.

Refer to Note 2 in the Form 10-K for a description of the methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The carrying amounts of Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable, and Accrued and Other Liabilities, approximated estimated fair values as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, the price of the Company’s Common Stock and commodity prices expose the Company to market risk. The Company manages these risks by the use of derivative instruments, such as cash flow and fair value hedges, diesel and commodity hedge contracts, equity derivatives and foreign exchange forward contracts. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. Refer to Note 3 in the Form 10-K for a discussion of each of the Company’s derivative instruments in effect as of December 31, 2024.
The notional amount of a derivative instrument is the nominal or face amount used to calculate payments made on that instrument. Notional amounts are presented in the following table:

The Company has intangible assets of substantial value on its condensed consolidated balance sheet. These intangible assets are generally related to intangible assets with a useful life, indefinite-lived trade names and goodwill. The Company determines whether an intangible asset (other than goodwill) has a useful life based on multiple factors, including how long the Company intends to generate cash flows from the asset. These intangible assets are more fully explained in the following sections.

The Company’s indefinite lived intangible impairment review is completed in the fourth quarter of each year.
Fair value for indefinite-lived intangible assets was estimated based on a “relief from royalty” or “excess earnings” discounted cash flow method, which contains numerous variables that are subject to change as business conditions change, and therefore could impact fair values in the future. The key assumptions used in determining fair value are sales growth, profitability margins, tax rates, discount rates and royalty rates.
On May 1, 2025, the Company announced it was exiting the Flawless, Spinbrush and Waterpik showerhead businesses which we intend to complete by early 2026. These businesses generated approximately $
During the third quarter of 2024, the Company continued to experience a decline in market share and a deterioration in the financial performance of its VMS business, which includes the VITAFUSION® and L'IL CRITTERS® trade name, primarily due to significant product competition coming from new category entrants, including private label. The continued decline in profitability
13
caused management to reassess its long-term strategy and financial outlook of the business. The revised financial outlook reflects lower estimates of future sales growth and cash flows which resulted in a triggering event in the third quarter. The triggering event required the Company to review the carrying value of assets supporting the business. The assets supporting the VMS business include the VITAFUSION® and L'IL CRITTERS® indefinite-lived trade name, a definite-lived customer relationship intangible asset and PP&E specific to the VMS business.
The Company used an excess earnings discounted cash flow model to determine the fair value of the trade name. The assumptions used in the model require significant judgment in determining the expected future cash flows. The key assumptions utilized in the Company's impairment analysis included, but were not limited to, net sales growth rates between -15.2% and 2.1%, EBITA margins in the low single digits, and a discount rate of
The Company also evaluated its ability to recover the carrying value of long-lived assets supporting the VMS business (customer relationships and PP&E) by comparing the carrying amount of those assets to the future undiscounted cash flows over the estimated life of the identified primary asset. The result of this evaluation was that the cash flows would not be sufficient to recover the carrying value of the assets requiring the Company to compare the carrying value of those assets to their fair value. The Company used an excess earnings discounted cash flow model to determine the estimated fair value of the long-lived assets. The key assumptions utilized in the Company's impairment analysis were the same as those used to estimate the fair value of the trade name. The valuation resulted in a fair value of the long-lived assets that is below their carry value requiring a pre-tax impairment charge of $

The Company’s global WATERPIK® business has continued to experience a significant decline in customer demand for many of its products, primarily due to lower consumer spending for discretionary products from inflation and a growing number of water flosser consumers switching to more value-branded products. Waterpik's profitability has also been impacted by tariffs imposed on its products imported into the United States that were manufactured in China. In May 2025 the Company announced that it was exiting the WATERPIK® showerheads business. As a result of these factors, the WATERPIK® business has experienced declining sales and profits resulting in a reduction in expected future cash flows which have eroded a substantial portion of the excess between the fair and carrying value of the trade name. This indefinite-lived intangible asset may be susceptible to impairment and a continued decline in fair value could trigger a future impairment charge of the WATERPIK® trade name. The carrying value of the WATERPIK® trade name was $

The Company tests goodwill for each reporting unit which are also the Company's reportable segments. The result of the Company’s annual goodwill impairment test, performed in the beginning of the second quarter of 2025, determined that the estimated fair value substantially exceeded the carrying values of all reporting units. The determination of fair value contains numerous variables that are subject to change as business conditions change and therefore could impact fair value in the future.
The Company leases certain manufacturing facilities, warehouses, office space, railcars and equipment. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. All recorded leases are classified as operating leases and lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease components (base rental costs) are accounted for separately from the nonlease components (e.g., common-area maintenance costs). For leases that do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its estimated secured incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.

In 2015, the Company initiated a Supply Chain Finance program (“SCF Program”). Under the SCF Program, qualifying suppliers may elect to sell their receivables from the Company for early payment. Participating suppliers negotiate their receivables sales arrangements directly with a third party. The Company is not party to those agreements and do not have an economic interest in the suppliers' decisions to sell their receivables and has not been required to pledge any assets as security nor to provide any guarantee to third-party finance providers or intermediaries. The SCF Program may allow suppliers to obtain more favorable terms than they could secure on their own. The terms of the Company's payment obligations are not impacted by a supplier’s participation in the SCF Program. The Company's payment terms with suppliers are consistent between suppliers that elect to participate in the SCF Program and those that do not participate. As a result, the program does not have an impact to the Company's average days outstanding.
As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the obligations outstanding related to the SCF program amounted to $

16. Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees
Commitments
a. The Company has a partnership with a supplier of raw materials that mines and processes sodium-based mineral deposits. The Company purchases the majority of its sodium-based raw material requirements from the partnership. The partnership agreement terminates upon two years’ written notice by either partner. Under the partnership agreement, the Company has an annual commitment to purchase

Legal proceedings
e. In addition, in conjunction with the Company’s acquisition and divestiture activities, the Company entered into select guarantees and indemnifications of performance with respect to the fulfillment of the Company’s commitments under applicable purchase and sale agreements. The arrangements generally indemnify the buyer or seller for damages associated with breach of contract, inaccuracies in representations and warranties surviving the closing date and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments retained under the applicable contract. Representations and warranties that survive the closing date generally survive for periods up to five years or the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitations. Potential losses under the indemnifications are generally limited to a portion of the original transaction price, or to other lesser specific dollar amounts for select provisions. With respect to sale transactions, the Company also routinely enters into non-competition agreements for varying periods of time. Guarantees and indemnifications with respect to acquisition and divestiture activities, if triggered, could have a materially adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
f. In addition to the matters described above, from time to time in the ordinary course of its business the Company is the subject of, or party to, various pending or threatened legal, regulatory or governmental actions or other proceedings, including, without limitation, those relating to, intellectual property, commercial transactions, product liability, purported consumer class actions, employment matters, antitrust, environmental, health, safety and other compliance related matters. Such proceedings are generally subject to considerable uncertainty and their outcomes, and any related damages, may not be reasonably predictable or estimable. Any such proceedings could result in a material adverse outcome negatively impacting the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, which was filed with the SEC on February 13, 2025, and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Overview
We develop, manufacture and market a broad range of consumer household and personal care products and specialty products focused on animal nutrition, chemicals and commercial products. Our well-recognized brands include ARM & HAMMER® baking soda, cat litter, laundry detergent, carpet deodorizer and other baking soda-based products; OXICLEAN® stain removers, cleaning solutions, laundry detergents and bleach alternatives; VITAFUSION® and L’IL CRITTERS® gummy dietary supplements for adults and children, respectively; BATISTE® dry shampoo; WATERPIK® water flossers and showerheads; THERABREATH® oral care products; HERO® acne treatment products; TROJAN® condoms, lubricants and vibrators; SPINBRUSH® battery-operated toothbrushes; FIRST RESPONSE® home pregnancy and ovulation test kits; NAIR® depilatories; ORAJEL® oral analgesic; XTRA® laundry detergent; and ZICAM® cold shortening and relief products. Seven of those brands are designated as "power brands" because they compete in large categories, and we believe they have the potential for significant global expansion. Those seven brands are ARM & HAMMER®; OXICLEAN®; VITAFUSION® and L’IL CRITTERS®; BATISTE®; WATERPIK®; THERABREATH®; and HERO® and represent approximately 70% of our net sales and profits.
We sell our consumer products through a broad distribution platform that includes supermarkets, mass merchandisers, wholesale clubs, drugstores, convenience stores, home stores, dollar and other discount stores, pet and other specialty stores and websites and other e-commerce channels, all of which sell our products to consumers. We sell our specialty products to industrial customers, livestock producers and through distributors.
We operate in three principal segments: Consumer Domestic, Consumer International, and our Specialty Products Division (“SPD”).
Recent Developments
Global Economic Conditions and Trade Policies
We continue to experience increased supply chain challenges, commodity cost volatility, and consumer and economic uncertainty primarily due to rapid changes in U.S. trade policies including recent sweeping tariff increases, as well as retaliatory tariffs by foreign countries. Additionally, U.S. consumers are increasingly worried about persistent inflation and looming tariffs, leading them to cut back on discretionary spending. We believe that retailers are lowering their consumer-packaged goods inventories and making targeted decisions to build inventory of certain products in advance of additional tariffs. We will continue to evaluate these evolving developments and have begun to take action to mitigate their impact on our business, including taking strategic actions for certain business lines (see Strategic Business Decisions), shifting production and relocating manufacturing operations, finding alternative sources of supply, most notably ceasing the import of substantially all Waterpik flossers and other products from China into the U.S., potential price increases, adjusting inventories, lobbying and seeking exemptions with respect to tariffs. While the tariff situation remains fluid, we are focused on managing through these challenges. From a gross risk perspective, we are currently projecting twelve-month run-rate gross tariff costs of approximately $60.0. Over the next 12 months, we believe our tariff cost exposure can be reduced through additional supply chain efforts and surgical pricing.
Strategic Business Decisions
On May 1, 2025, we announced that we will be exiting the Flawless, Spinbrush and Waterpik showerhead businesses, which we intend to complete by early 2026. These businesses generated approximately $170.0 of annual Net Sales in 2024. We recorded a pre-tax charge of $51.0 in the second quarter of 2025 as a direct result of these actions, of which $30.4 was recorded in Cost of sales and $20.6 was recorded in SG&A. The charge was primarily recorded in the Consumer Domestic segment and was comprised of non-cash charges related to impairments of intangible and fixed assets, as well as inventory reserves.
On August 1, 2025, we announced that we are performing a strategic review of our vitamin business. This review includes potential actions to streamline our supply chain to strengthen the core business, joint venture or other partnership opportunities, and divestiture options. We expect to reach a conclusion from this review by the end of 2025.

Accelerated Share Repurchase
In May 2025, the Company entered into an accelerated share repurchase ("ASR") contract with a commercial bank to purchase Common Stock. The Company paid $300.0 to the bank, inclusive of fees, and received an initial delivery of shares equal to $270.0, or 2.8 million shares at an average share price of $95.97. The 2.8 million shares were purchased under the evergreen share repurchase program. The Company used cash on hand to fund the initial purchase price. The remaining shares to be delivered by the bank will be determined by the average price per share paid by the bank during the purchase period and is expected to end in August of 2025.
One Big Beautiful Bill Act
On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed into law the legislation formally titled "An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Title II of H. Con. Res. 14” and commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”). The legislation includes several provisions that may impact the timing and magnitude of certain tax deductions. Key provisions include the permanent extension of several key elements of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, including 100% bonus depreciation and domestic research cost expensing. We are currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of the OBBBA on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Touchland Acquisition
On July 16, 2025, we completed the acquisition of Touchland Holding Corp ("Touchland"), the developer of TOUCHLAND® hand sanitizer products (the "Touchland Acquisition"). The purchase price for the Touchland Acquisition was $700.0, subject to customary adjustments for cash and working capital acquired at closing, and is inclusive of rights granted to Touchland’s founder to receive shares of our common stock valued at $50.0, with 50% of such shares required to be issued following vesting at each of the first and second year anniversaries of the closing. The value of common stock received by Touchland's founder will be recognized as a compensation expense over the two-year vesting period. Payment of a $5.0 portion of the purchase price was deferred related to certain indemnification obligations provided by Touchland’s equityholders, which amount, to the extent not used in satisfaction of such indemnity obligations, is payable three years from the closing. Contingent upon the achievement of certain 2025 net sales thresholds, the Touchland Acquisition may require payment of additional earnout consideration up to a maximum of $180.0 in cash in the second quarter of 2026. We expect the majority of the purchase price to be allocated to the trade name.
New Credit Agreement
On July 17, 2025, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement replaced the Company’s prior $1,500.0 unsecured revolving credit facility that was entered into on June 16, 2022. The aggregate commitments of the lenders under the Credit Agreement, as of the effective date, are $2,000.0, with an option to increase such commitments to $2,750.0 pursuant to the terms therein. The revolving credit facility matures on July 17, 2030, unless extended. Terms for the Credit Agreement are substantially the same as the terms for the credit facility entered into on June 16, 2022.

Gross Profit / Gross Margin
Our gross profit was $647.0 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, a $65.1 decrease as compared to the same period in 2024. Gross margin decreased 410 basis points (“bps”) in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. The decline in gross margin was due primarily to costs associated with exiting the Flawless, Spinbrush, and Waterpik showerheads businesses of 200 bps and tariff refunds in the prior year of 180 bps. Excluding these items, gross margin decreased by 30 bps due to the impact of higher manufacturing costs of 130 bps (including labor, commodities and tariffs), unfavorable price/mix/volume of 40 bps, and an unfavorable recall impact of 30 bps, partially offset by the impact of productivity programs of 160 bps, and benefits from the Graphico Acquisition of 10 bps.
Gross profit was $1,306.6 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, a $92.5 decrease compared to the same period in 2024. Gross margin decreased 250 bps in the first six months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. The decline in gross margin was due primarily to costs associated with exiting the Flawless, Spinbrush, and Waterpik showerheads businesses of 100 bps and tariff refunds in the prior year of 90 bps. Excluding these items, gross margin decreased by 60 bps due to the impact of higher manufacturing costs of 180 bps (including labor, commodities and tariffs), unfavorable price/mix/volume of 20 bps, an unfavorable recall impact of 20 bps, and unfavorable foreign exchange of 10 bps, partially offset by the impact of productivity programs of 160 bps, and benefits from the Graphico Acquisition of 10 bps.
Operating Expenses
Marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2025 were $157.1, an increase of $4.7 or 3.1% as compared to the same period in 2024. Marketing expenses as a percentage of net sales in the second quarter of 2025 increased by 30 bps to 10.4% compared to 10.1% in the same period in 2024 due to 30 bps on higher expense primarily due to marketing program timing. Marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 were $293.7, a decrease of $10.7 or 3.5% as compared to the same period in 2024. Marketing expenses as a percentage of net sales for the first six months of 2025 decreased by 20 bps to 9.9% as compared to 10.1% in the same period in 2024 due to 40 bps on lower expense, primarily due to marketing program timing.
SG&A expenses were $228.2 in the second quarter of 2025, an increase of $5.4 or 2.4% as compared to the same period in 2024. SG&A as a percentage of net sales increased 40 bps to 15.1% in the second quarter of 2025 as compared to 14.7% in the same period in 2024. The increase is due to 40 bps on higher expenses, primarily due to non-cash asset impairment costs associated with exiting the Flawless, Spinbrush, and Waterpik showerheads businesses of $20.6. SG&A expenses for the first six months of 2025 were $455.9, an increase of $3.1 or 0.7% as compared to the same period in 2024. SG&A as a percentage of net sales increased 30 bps to 15.3% in the first six months of 2025 compared to 15.0% in 2024. The increase is primarily due to non-cash asset impairment costs associated with exiting the Flawless, Spinbrush, and Waterpik showerheads businesses of $20.6.
Nonoperating Expenses
Interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 increased $5.4 and $11.3 to $9.2 and $18.5, respectively, as compared to the same period in 2024 due to higher interest income primarily associated with higher cash balances.
Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2025 increased $0.3 to $23.5, as compared to the same period in 2024. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025 decreased $1.4 to $46.8 as compared to the same period in 2024.
Other income (expense) was nominal for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was 23.8%, compared to 24.0% in the same period in 2024. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was 22.8%, compared to 22.1% in the same period in 2024.
The increase in the tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025 is primarily from a lower tax benefit on reduced stock option exercises in 2025 compared to 2024. We are still evaluating the impact the changes to the tax provisions implemented by the OBBBA will have on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

Consumer Domestic income from operations for the second quarter of 2025 was $217.4, a $72.3 decrease as compared to the second quarter of 2024.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2025, income from operations was $462.2, an $85.2 decrease as compared to the first six months of 2024.

Consumer International income from operations was $32.4 in the second quarter of 2025, a $2.5 decrease as compared to the second quarter of 2024. The decrease is due primarily to higher marketing expenses of $3.9, costs associated with exiting the Flawless, Spinbrush, and Waterpik showerheads businesses of $3.8, and higher SG&A expenses of $3.1, partially offset by the impact of higher sales volumes of $4.5, favorable price/mix of $3.9, and lower manufacturing and distribution expenses of $0.2 (including tariffs). For the first six months of 2025, income from operations was $70.1, a $0.7 decrease as compared to the same period in 2024. The decrease is due primarily to unfavorable foreign exchange rates of $7.8, higher SG&A expenses of $6.4, costs associated with exiting the Flawless, Spinbrush, and Waterpik showerheads businesses of $3.8, higher manufacturing and distribution expenses of $2.6 (including tariffs), and higher marketing expenses of $2.3, partially offset by the impact of higher sales volumes of $11.8 and a favorable price/mix of $10.7.

Net sales excluding product line divestitures increased in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 primarily due to growth in our sodium bicarbonate business.
SPD income from operations was $11.9 in the second quarter of 2025, a decrease of $0.3 as compared to the same period in 2024 due to lower volumes of $1.9, unfavorable manufacturing costs of $1.1, and higher marketing costs of $0.3, partially offset by favorable price/mix of $2.2 and lower SG&A expenses of $1.2. SPD income from operations was $24.7 in the first six months of 2025, an increase of $1.0 as compared to the same period in 2024 due primarily to favorable price/product mix of $4.3 and lower SG&A expenses of $3.5 mainly from divestitures, partially offset by the impact of lower sales volumes of $3.9, unfavorable manufacturing costs of $2.3, and higher marketing expenses of $0.6.
Equity in Earnings of Affiliates
Equity in earnings of affiliates represents the results of Armand in the three and six months of 2025 and 2024 and ArmaKleen in the first three and six months of 2024. In October 2024, the Company sold its 50% interest in ArmaKleen to our joint venture partner.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
On July 17, 2025, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement replaced the Company’s prior $1,500.0 unsecured revolving credit facility that was entered into on June 16, 2022. The aggregate commitments of the lenders under the Credit Agreement, as of the effective date, are $2,000.0, with an option to increase such commitments to $2,750.0 pursuant to the terms therein. The revolving credit facility matures on July 17, 2030, unless extended. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are available for general corporate purposes and are used to support our $1,500.0 commercial paper program.
As of June 30, 2025, we had $923.2 in cash and cash equivalents, and approximately $1,494.0 available through our previous revolving credit facility and our commercial paper program. To preserve our liquidity, we invest cash primarily in government money market funds, prime money market funds, short-term commercial paper and short-term bank deposits.
The current economic environment presents risks that could have adverse consequences for our liquidity. See “Our operating results have been, and could be in the future, adversely affected by natural disasters, public health crises, political crises, or other catastrophic events, or unfavorable worldwide, regional and local economic and financial market conditions” under “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of the Form 10-K. We continue to manage all aspects of our business including, but not limited to, monitoring the financial health of our customers, suppliers and other third-party relationships, implementing gross margin enhancement strategies and developing new opportunities for growth. We do not anticipate that current economic conditions will adversely affect our ability to comply with the financial covenant in the Credit Agreement because we currently are, and anticipate that we will continue to be, in compliance with the maximum leverage ratio requirement under the Credit Agreement.
On October 28, 2021, the Board authorized the Company’s share repurchase program, under which we may repurchase up to $1,000.0 in shares of Common Stock (the “2021 Share Repurchase Program”). The 2021 Share Repurchase Program does not have an expiration and replaced the 2017 Share Repurchase Program.
We have $658.9 of share repurchase availability under the 2021 Share Repurchase Program as of June 30, 2025.
The 2021 Share Repurchase Program did not modify our evergreen share repurchase program, authorized by the Board on January 29, 2014, under which we may repurchase, from time to time, Common Stock to reduce or eliminate dilution associated with issuances of Common Stock under our incentive plans.
In May 2025, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase ("ASR") contract with a commercial bank to purchase Common Stock. The Company paid $300.0 to the bank, inclusive of fees, and received an initial delivery of shares equal to $270.0, or 2.8 million shares at an average price of $95.97. The 2.8 million shares were purchased under the evergreen share repurchase program. The Company used cash on hand to fund the initial purchase price. The remaining shares to be delivered by the bank will be determined by the average price per share paid by the bank during the purchase period and is expected to end in August of 2025.
On January 29, 2025, the Board declared a 4% increase in the regular quarterly dividend from $0.28375 to $0.295 per share, equivalent to an annual dividend of $1.18 per share payable to stockholders of record as of February 14, 2025. The increase raises the annual dividend payout from $277.0 to approximately $287.0 on an annualized basis.
We anticipate that our cash from operations, together with our current borrowing capacity, will be sufficient to fund our share repurchase programs to the extent implemented by management, pay debt and interest as it comes due, pay dividends at the latest approved rate, and meet our capital expenditure program costs, which are expected to be approximately $130.0 in 2025 including manufacturing capacity investments for THERABREATH® and Sterimar and an enterprise resource planning (ERP) project. Cash, together with our current borrowing capacity, may be used for acquisitions that would complement our existing product lines or geographic markets.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities – Our primary source of liquidity is the cash flow provided by operating activities, which is dependent on net income and changes in working capital. Our net cash provided by operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2025 decreased by $83.4 to $416.5 as compared to $499.9 in the same period in 2024 due to an increase in working capital and a decrease in cash earnings (net income adjusted for non-cash items). The increase in working capital is primarily related to lower accounts payable and accrued expense balances mainly due to the timing of marketing spend and inventory purchases partially offset by higher cash collections. The timing of inventory purchases as well as lower accounts receivable balances are mainly due to lower sales in our consumer domestic business. We measure working capital effectiveness based on our cash conversion cycle. The following table presents our cash conversion cycle information for the quarters ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:

Our cash conversion cycle (defined as the sum of DSO and DIO less DPO) which is calculated using a quarter-to-quarter two-period average method, decreased one day from the prior year. The increase in DPO is primarily from higher average accounts payable balances from extending payment terms with some vendors. We continue to focus on reducing our working capital requirements.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities – Net cash used in investing activities during the first six months of 2025 was $39.6, primarily reflecting $39.0 for property, plant and equipment additions. Net cash used in investing activities during the first six months of 2024 was $91.5, primarily reflecting $76.6 for property, plant and equipment additions and $19.9 for the Graphico Acquisition, partially offset by $6.6 of proceeds from the sale of assets.
Net Cash Used in Financing Activities – Net cash used in financing activities during the first six months of 2025 was $426.8, reflecting $300.0 of share repurchases, $145.0 of cash dividend payments and $5.9 related to the payment of a business acquisition liability, partially offset by $26.6 of proceeds from stock option exercises. Net cash used in financing activities during the first six months of 2024 was $257.4 reflecting $197.7 of net debt payments and $138.2 of cash dividend payments, partially offset by $79.5 of proceeds from stock option exercises.
