<h3>Understanding the Significance of Insider Transactions</h3>
Insider transactions shouldn't be used primarily to make an investing decision, however, they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
In the context of legal matters, the term "insider" refers to any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company's equity securities, as outlined by Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This includes executives in the c-suite and significant hedge funds. Such insiders are obligated to report their transactions through a Form 4 filing, which must be completed within two business days of the transaction.
Pointing towards optimism, a company insider's new purchase signals their positive anticipation for the stock to rise.
Despite insider sells not always signaling a bearish sentiment, they can be driven by various factors.
<h3>The Insider's Guide to Important Transaction Codes</h3>
Navigating through the landscape of transactions, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">investors</a> often prioritize those unfolding in the open market, precisely detailed in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 denotes a purchase, while S signifies a sale. Transaction code C signals the conversion of an option, and transaction code A denotes a grant, award, or other acquisition of securities from the company.

General

Why Consumer Goods Maker Church & Dwight Stock Fell On Thursday?

WIIM

Church & Dwight shares are trading lower after the company reported worse-than-expected Q1 sales results, issued Q2 adjusted EPS guidance below estimates, and cut its FY25 adjusted EPS guidance.

Outlook for 2025
Mr. Dierker stated, "Despite these uncertain markets, we remain focused on growing our market shares across our portfolio. We will continue to invest in marketing to support our brands and we believe consumption of our brands will continue to outpace category growth fueled by innovation. We will continue to offer high quality products to consumers at the right value. This outlook reflects strong underlying operating fundamentals.
"We now expect organic sales growth of approximately 0% to 2% (previously 3% to 4%).2 The sales outlook now reflects no recovery in retailer destocking from Q1 and slower category growth due to macroeconomic uncertainty. The deceleration of category growth in our largest categories in the US reflects the tentativeness of the US consumer. We saw 2.5% category growth in Q4 2024, 1.5% in Q1, and negative year-over-year category consumption in April. We continue to anticipate gaining market share.
"Full year adjusted gross margin is now expected to contract 60 basis points2 versus 2024 (previously +25 basis points) as we expect tariff impacts, persistently elevated input costs, and unfavorable mix to offset incremental productivity. Marketing as a percentage of sales is expected to be approximately 11% of sales, as we will continue to invest in our brands and innovation.
"We continue to expect SG&amp;A as a percentage of sales to be lower versus 2024 while making investments for our future, especially in ecommerce and International. We continue to expect other expense for 2025 to be approximately $50 million. Our tax rate is expected to be approximately 23%.
"We now expect full year adjusted EPS growth for 2025 of 0% to 2%2 (previously 7% to 8% growth), due to lower sales assuming no recovery in retailer destocking from Q1, slower category growth for the balance of the year, and tariff pressures.
"Cash flow from operations is now expected to be $1.05 billion (previously $1.156 billion). We expect 2025 capital expenditures of approximately $130 million. We continue to pursue accretive acquisitions that meet our strict criteria, with an emphasis on fast-moving consumable products, similar to our last 3 acquisitions (ZICAM, THERABREATH, and HERO).
"For Q2, we expect organic sales of approximately -2% to Flat2. As a result, we expect Adjusted EPS of $0.85 per share, a decrease of 9% versus last year's adjusted Q2 EPS.2 We continue to expect EPS growth to be weighted towards the back half of 2025 due to marketing and investment timing versus a year ago.
"Our adjusted outlook excludes as of April 1st, 2025 charges and the ongoing results for the Flawless, Spinbrush and Waterpik showerhead businesses."

Church & Dwight Expects 2025 Organic Sales Growth Of Approximately 0% To 2% (Previously 3% To 4%)

"For Q2, we expect organic sales of approximately -2% to Flat2. As a result, we expect Adjusted EPS of $0.85 per share, a decrease of 9% versus last year's adjusted Q2 EPS.2 We continue to expect EPS growth to be weighted towards the back half of 2025 due to marketing and investment timing versus a year ago.

Church & Dwight Co Sees Q2 2025 Adj EPS $0.85 vs $0.95 Est

Church & Dwight Co Lowers FY2025 Adj EPS Guidance from $3.68-$3.72 to $3.44-$3.51 vs $3.69 Est

These businesses generate approximately $150 million of Net Sales with below average profitability. This decision will strengthen the company, sharpen our focus on core brands, and mitigate a significant portion of our tariff exposure. We expect to record a Q2 charge of approximately $60 to 80 million, primarily compromised of non-cash impairments of intangibles and fixed assets, as well as inventory charges depending on sell through.&nbsp;

Church & Dwight Is Moving With Speed On Portfolio Decisions And Will Be Taking Strategic Actions For The Flawless, Spinbrush And Waterpik Showerhead Businesses, Which Includes Shutting Down Or Selling These Businesses

The impact of the portfolio decisions and a series of supply chain actions is expected to reduce our tariff exposure by approximately 80%. The supply chain actions include no longer sourcing Waterpik flossers from China for the U.S. market. The impact of inventory builds and other quick supply chain actions enable us to effectively manage the tariff exposure and the net impact is included in the Company's outlook. Over the next 12 months, we believe the impact of the remaining tariffs can be mitigated through supply chain efforts and surgical pricing.&nbsp;

While The Tariff Situation Remains Fluid, Church & Dwight Is Currently Projecting A 12-month Run-rate Gross Tariff Exposure Of Approximately $190M
