Recent news
most recent scored articles · the chip is the article’s score · click to openEvercore raised its price target on Colgate-Palmolive from $100 to $101 and assigned the stock an 'outperform' rating in a Thursday research note.
A comparison piece weighing Colgate-Palmolive (CL) against Clorox (CLX) argues that CL's fundamentals are supported by its geographic diversification, growth in emerging markets, and the strength of its Hill's pet nutrition business, while Clorox relies on a turnaround and its GOJO acquisition.
An article examines Colgate-Palmolive's strategy of innovation, premiumization (shifting customers to higher-priced products), and expansion into emerging markets, saying these are strengthening its brands and opening up long-term growth opportunities.
Colgate-Palmolive is exploring the sale of its mass-market personal care brands, Softsoap, Irish Spring, and Speed Stick, working with Goldman Sachs on a process that could bring in more than $1 billion. The company says the move is meant to sharpen focus on higher-margin businesses like Hill's Pet Nutrition and faster-growing international markets.
Colgate-Palmolive has paid a dividend every year since 1895, giving it a 130-year streak, but its North American business is shrinking and its stock trades at a premium price that leaves little room for things to go wrong.
