Church & Dwight reports Q2 adjusted EPS 92c, consensus 79c

Reports Q2 revenue $1.45B, consensus $1.42B. Matthew Farrell, CEO, commented, “Our Q2 results reflect the strength of our brands and our continued focus on execution. Consumer demand for our products and improved case fill is resulting in strong revenue growth. Our domestic brands grew consumption in 11 of 17 categories in which we compete. The trade down to value laundry detergent continued as ARM & HAMMER liquid detergent experienced strong consumption growth and share gains in Q2. Global online sales continued to grow and as a percentage of total consumer sales were 18% in Q2. Our recent acquisitions, THERABREATH mouthwash and the HERO brand, the maker of MIGHTY PATCH acne care products, both experienced high consumption growth and grew market share. Quarterly consumption for THERABREATH doubled and HERO consumption increased 65% compared to the prior year quarter. Both businesses are rapidly gaining new distribution at retail, with THERABREATH more than doubling and the HERO brand tripling distribution since we acquired these businesses.”
