Kenvue Inc. is the world’s largest pure-play consumer health company by revenue, known for its iconic brands such as Aveeno, BAND-AID, and Neutrogena, operating primarily in the consumer health sector with a focus on everyday care products. Kenvue’s 2024 financial report highlights a modest increase in full-year net sales by 0.1% to $15.5 billion, with organic sales growth of 1.5%, and a notable improvement in gross profit margin by 200 basis points. Despite a slight decrease in fourth-quarter net sales, the company reported an adjusted diluted EPS of $0.26 for the quarter and $1.14 for the full year. Key financial metrics reveal a decline in operating income margin due to higher brand investment and asset impairments, although gross profit margin saw a positive shift. The company managed to achieve a net income of $1.03 billion for the year, down from $1.66 billion previously, with increased interest expenses and a higher effective tax rate impacting overall profitability. Looking forward, Kenvue anticipates navigating external market dynamics in 2025 with expectations of organic sales growth between 2% to 4%, while focusing on operational efficiencies and brand investments to drive adjusted operating margin improvements.
