Kimberly-Clark reported higher Q1 2026 profit while reshaping its portfolio. Net sales from continuing operations rose 2.7% to $4.16 billion, driven mainly by 2.6% volume growth.

Its 2024 Transformation Initiative has generated cumulative pre‑tax charges of $859 million, with Q1 2026 charges of $51 million, but is targeted to deliver $3.0 billion in gross productivity savings. Operating cash flow strengthened to $745 million, up from $327 million, helped by an insurance recovery and better working capital.
Kimberly-Clark Corporation reported higher first-quarter 2026 earnings with modest sales growth and reaffirmed its 2026 outlook. Net sales from continuing operations were $4.16 billion, up 2.7% year over year, driven by 2.5% organic sales growth and 3.0% volume-plus-mix growth, partially offset by lower pricing and the exit of the U.S. private label diaper business.
Operating profit rose 19.3% to $753 million, while adjusted operating profit increased 3.7% to $732 million, supported by productivity savings, lower overhead and favorable currency, partially offset by pricing investments and transformation and acquisition-related charges. Diluted EPS from continuing operations were $1.70, up from $1.39, with adjusted EPS from continuing operations at $1.60, down 1.2% due mainly to a higher adjusted effective tax rate. Diluted EPS attributable to Kimberly-Clark reached $2.00, with adjusted EPS attributable to Kimberly-Clark at $1.97, up 2.1%.
