<h2>Delving into Clorox's Background</h2>
Since its inception more than 100 years ago, Clorox has grown to play in a variety of categories across the consumer products space, including cleaning supplies, laundry care, trash bags, cat litter, charcoal, food dressings, water-filtration products, and natural personal-care products. Beyond its namesake brand, the firm's portfolio includes Liquid-Plumr, Pine-Sol, S.O.S, Tilex, Kingsford, Fresh Step, Glad, Hidden Valley, KC Masterpiece, Brita, and Burt's Bees. Just less than 85% of Clorox's sales stem from its home turf.
<h3>A Deep Dive into Clorox's Financials</h3>
Market Capitalization Analysis: Reflecting a smaller scale, the company's market capitalization is positioned below industry averages. This could be attributed to factors such as growth expectations or operational capacity.
Positive Revenue Trend: Examining Clorox's financials over 3 months reveals a positive narrative. The company achieved a noteworthy revenue growth rate of 27.13% as of 30 September, 2024, showcasing a substantial increase in top-line earnings. As compared to competitors, the company surpassed expectations with a growth rate higher than the average among peers in the Consumer Staples sector.
Net Margin: The company's net margin is below industry benchmarks, signaling potential difficulties in achieving strong profitability. With a net margin of 5.62%, the company may need to address challenges in effective cost control.
Return on Equity (ROE): Clorox's ROE excels beyond industry benchmarks, reaching 51.03%. This signifies robust financial management and efficient use of shareholder equity capital.
Return on Assets (ROA): Clorox's ROA falls below industry averages, indicating challenges in efficiently utilizing assets. With an ROA of 1.76%, the company may face hurdles in generating optimal returns from its assets.
Debt Management: Clorox's debt-to-equity ratio surpasses industry norms, standing at 48.07. This suggests the company carries a substantial amount of debt, posing potential financial challenges.
<h2>How Are Analyst Ratings Determined?</h2>
Benzinga tracks 150 analyst firms and reports on their stock expectations. Analysts typically arrive at their conclusions by predicting how much money a company will make in the future, usually the upcoming five years, and how risky or predictable that company's revenue streams are.
Analysts attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish their ratings on stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter or whenever the company has a major update.
Analysts may supplement their ratings with predictions for metrics like growth estimates, earnings, and revenue, offering investors a more comprehensive outlook. However, investors should be mindful that analysts, like any human, can have subjective perspectives influencing their forecasts.

Expert Outlook: Clorox Through The Eyes Of 9 Analysts

Barclays analyst Lauren Lieberman maintains Clorox (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLX#NYSE">CLX</a>) with a Underweight and raises the price target from $137 to $139.

Clorox Sees FY25 Adj. EPS $6.65-$6.90 (Prior $6.55-$6.80), Sees FY25 Gross Margin Up 100-150 Bps (Prior Up ~100 Bps)

Clorox (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLX#NYSE">CLX</a>) reported quarterly earnings of $1.86 per share which beat the analyst consensus estimate of $1.39 by 33.81 percent. The company reported quarterly sales of $1.762 billion which beat the analyst consensus estimate of $1.646 billion by 7.05 percent.

Earnings Beats

Clorox Q1 2025 Adj. EPS $1.86 Beats $1.39 Estimate, Sales $1.762B Beat $1.646B Estimate

Looking into the current session, Clorox Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLX#NYSE">CLX</a>) shares are trading at $159.01, after a 0.86% decrease. Over the past month, the stock fell by 3.39%, but over the past year, it actually increased by 30.37%. With questionable short-term performance like this, and great long-term performance, long-term shareholders might want to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1729621890_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>How Does Clorox P/E Compare to Other Companies?</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Clorox has a better P/E ratio of 71.28 than the aggregate P/E ratio of 43.32 of the Household Products industry. Ideally, one might believe that Clorox Inc. might perform better in the future than it's industry group, but it's probable that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1729621890_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

As the third-quarter earnings season approaches, Goldman Sachs has issued a note identifying key stock opportunities for investors looking to profit <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41255250/banks-gear-up-for-earnings-season-15-top-stock-picks-including-citigroup-morgan-stanley-and-truist">from financial results.</a>
Analyst John Marshall and his team shared their insights on Thursday, highlighting 18 stocks that could benefit from upward earnings revisions and seven stocks likely to face downward revisions.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The &#8216;Stock Picker&#8217;s Year&#8217;: 10% Upside In S&amp;P 500</h3>
Goldman Sachs analysts call 2024 "the year of the stock picker," emphasizing the importance of selective investing in a volatile earnings environment.
According to the investment bank&#8217;s latest projections, the average S&amp;P 500 stock could see a 10% upside over the next 12 months. 
"We see relief rally potential," Marshall stated in his note. "Directional positioning in the options market is balanced, a much better set-up than this time last quarter."
The analysts also observed that activity in options markets, both from hedge funds and retail traders, has decreased recently, signaling a "wait-and-see" approach as investors prepare for third-quarter earnings reports and the upcoming U.S. elections.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Earnings Season Volatility Remains Elevated</h3>
Goldman Sachs highlighted that single-stock volatility surrounding earnings events remains at a 14-year high. 
This trend, driven by critical market debates on topics like artificial intelligence, interest rates, and the upcoming election, is expected to continue through the remainder of the year.
&#8220;We expect earnings day moves to remain elevated as most of the key debates for the market have winners and losers in the equity space,&#8221; the note added. 
With this heightened volatility, the firm continues to recommend options-based strategies, advising investors to consider buying options ahead of earnings events and selling options between earnings periods to capitalize on price movements.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">18 Stocks Goldman Sachs Is Bullish On For Third-Quarter Earnings</h3>
Goldman Sachs&#8217; analysts have identified 18 stocks they believe are primed for upside as earnings revisions could be favorable. These stocks span a variety of sectors, from energy and financials to healthcare and technology.

What Happened: In a significant move reported in a Form 4 filing with the <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/0000021076/000122520824009227//Archives/edgar/data/21076/000122520824009227/0001225208-24-009227-index.htm">U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission</a> on Tuesday, Rendle purchased 32,639 shares of Clorox, demonstrating confidence in the company's growth potential. The total value of the transaction stands at $5,273,483.
Tracking the Wednesday's morning session, Clorox shares are trading at $158.89, showing a down of 0.56%.
<h3>About Clorox</h3>
Since its inception more than 100 years ago, Clorox has grown to play in a variety of categories across the consumer products space, including cleaning supplies, laundry care, trash bags, cat litter, charcoal, food dressings, water-filtration products, and natural personal-care products. Beyond its namesake brand, the firm's portfolio includes Liquid-Plumr, Pine-Sol, S.O.S, Tilex, Kingsford, Fresh Step, Glad, Hidden Valley, KC Masterpiece, Brita, and Burt's Bees. Just less than 85% of Clorox's sales stem from its home turf.
<h3>Financial Insights: Clorox</h3>
Negative Revenue Trend: Examining Clorox's financials over 3 months reveals challenges. As of 30 June, 2024, the company experienced a decline of approximately -5.75% in revenue growth, reflecting a decrease in top-line earnings. As compared to competitors, the company encountered difficulties, with a growth rate lower than the average among peers in the Consumer Staples sector.
Interpreting Earnings Metrics:
<ul>
<li>
Gross Margin: The company sets a benchmark with a high gross margin of 46.45%, reflecting superior cost management and profitability compared to its peers.
</li>
<li>
Earnings per Share (EPS): Clorox's EPS is a standout, portraying a positive bottom-line trend that exceeds the industry average with a current EPS of 1.74.
</li>
</ul>
Debt Management: Clorox's debt-to-equity ratio is below the industry average at 8.85, reflecting a lower dependency on debt financing and a more conservative financial approach.
Insights into Valuation Metrics:
<ul>
<li>
Price to Earnings (P/E) Ratio: Clorox's current Price to Earnings (P/E) ratio of 71.02 is higher than the industry average, indicating that the stock may be overvalued according to market sentiment.
</li>
<li>
Price to Sales (P/S) Ratio: The current P/S ratio of 2.81 is above industry norms, reflecting an elevated valuation for Clorox's stock and potential overvaluation based on sales performance.
</li>
<li>
EV/EBITDA Analysis (Enterprise Value to its Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation &amp; Amortization): Clorox's EV/EBITDA ratio of 31.07 exceeds industry averages, indicating a premium valuation in the market

<h3>Why Insider Activity Matters in Finance</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.
Considering the legal perspective, an "insider" is defined as any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company's equity securities, according to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This includes executives in the c-suite and major hedge funds. These insiders are mandated to disclose their transactions through a Form 4 filing, to be submitted 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.
Nevertheless, insider sells may not necessarily indicate a bearish view and can be influenced by various factors.
<h3>Essential Transaction Codes Unveiled</h3>
When dissecting transactions, the focal point for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">investors</a> is often those occurring in the open market, meticulously 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 indicates the conversion of an option, and transaction code A denotes a grant, award, or other acquisition of securities from the company.

Chief Executive Officer Of Clorox Purchased $5.27M In Stock

Clorox Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLX#NYSE">CLX</a>) is scheduled to report its quarterly earnings in early November.
The stock's risk/reward is negative heading into the third-quarter results, according to Goldman Sachs <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/58aed4dcb85e9300013bf4da/bonnie-herzog">analyst Bonnie Herzog</a>.
The Clorox Thesis: Herzog reiterated a Sell rating for and price target of $132. 
The company faces easy year-ago comps and made progress in restoring product availability and market share. As a result, expectations have risen, Herzog said in the note.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
Certain areas remain challenging "due to lack of product availability, heightened competition, purchase cycles and category dynamics." That could require more promotional support.
Recent checks suggest that Clorox's promotions are "well above" the pre-Covid levels in certain categories and the company's two-year trends suggest "a sequential moderation in total sales growth," the analyst stated. "As such, we see an environment of elevated promotions and rising concerns around the health of the consumer to limit the rate of retail inventory pipeline fill, esp. in CLX's Household segment, with some sales likely getting pushed out to FQ2," he further wrote.
There is downside to the current consensus estimates and Clorox's organic sales growth in fiscal 2025 is likely to be back-end loaded, Herzog said.
Price Action: Shares of Clorox had declined by 1.03% to $158.94 at the time of publication on Tuesday.
The company received an upgrade from a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41127080/clorox-positioned-for-comeback-analyst-predicts-earnings-beats-and-3-year-growth-su">Jefferies analyst who predicted an earnings beat</a>.

This Clorox Analyst Believes There Is Downside To Estimates

Jefferies analyst Kaumil&nbsp;Gajrawala upgraded Clorox Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLX#NYSE">CLX</a>) to Buy from Hold, raising the price forecast to $187 from $174.
The analyst projects that Clorox will return to its former status as a company delivering peer-leading economic profit growth and returns on capital.
Historically, this performance has warranted a valuation premium of 30% compared to its peers.
According to the analyst, topline growth is already showing signs of improvement, and operating leverage is becoming increasingly attainable.
Clorox has lagged behind its peers in growth reinvestments due to challenges such as COVID, supply chain issues, inflation, and cybersecurity from 2020 to 2024.

However, the analyst notes that this is beginning to change. With ERP deployments primarily expensed and a U.S. rollout expected by fiscal fourth quarter, the company aims to streamline its innovation pipeline, enhance RGM capabilities, and drive SG&amp;A leverage. The analyst forecasts that these changes will lead to earnings beats.
The analyst projects Clorox to achieve a three-year organic sales compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of +3.6% through fiscal 2028. According to the analyst, the company is well-positioned to meet its target of +3-5%, driven by anticipated organic sales growth of +3% in the U.S. and +5.5% internationally, with U.S. sales expected to return to fiscal 2023 levels by fiscal 2025.
Early indicators are promising, as trade spend increases have shown positive results, the analyst adds.
Price Action: CLX shares are trading higher by 0.96% to $164.47 at last check Tuesday.
