Last quarter, the company raised its outlookP&G announced price increases for additional products and affixed a target for inflation. Investors will also be watching to see if the price hikes that P&G implemented to offset inflation have led cash-strapped consumers to trade down to private label alternatives.
P&G has stated that they plan to bring more innovation into the product line this year, so their prices don’t rise as much. Earlier in January, P&G introduced an upside-down bottle for its Dawn dish soap.
P&G has also been looking for growth through acquisitions, particularly in the beauty category. P&G bought Farmacy Beauty in November. In December, Ouai was purchased by the hair-care company. Tula Skincare was acquired in January.
Jon Moeller will be the new chief executive. This is also Jon’s first quarter. After six years as CEO, David Taylor, the former chief executive officer, resigned in November.
