Clorox (CLX) Q4 EPS Jumps 58%
(NYSE:CLX), a household products maker known for bleach, cleaning supplies, trash bags, and food products, released its fiscal fourth-quarter results on July 31, 2025. The highlight was a surge in adjusted earnings per share (EPS) to $2.87, well above the analyst consensus of $2.20. Revenue (GAAP) was $1.99 billion, beating expectations of $1.93 billion. However, this outperformance was driven mostly by a temporary boost from "incremental ERP shipments" ahead of a digital system upgrade—an effect the company does not expect to repeat. Management’s outlook for FY2026 calls for lower sales and profits as prior gains are expected to reverse. Despite a strong margin and cash flow performance, management flagged caution due to ongoing cost and consumer headwinds, making the past quarter a positive surprise with underlying challenges for the coming year.
