B of A Securities analyst Bryan D. Spillane on Friday, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/PG/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">reiterated a Buy rating</a> on Procter &amp; Gamble CO (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PG#NYSE">PG</a>) stock, and lowered the price forecast from $190.00 to $180.00.
PG's strong <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44984872/gillette-parent-procter-gamble-slides-on-q3-sales-decline-lowered-outlook" rel="noreferrer noopener">third-quarter performance</a> was overshadowed by concerns over potential U.S. tariffs, which could cost the company $1 billion to $1.5 billion annually.
The analyst states that despite a 3.7% stock drop, PG believes it can offset the impact through favorable foreign exchange, lower input costs, and strategic pricing.

While category growth has softened slightly, core consumer demand remains stable. PG also reports positive momentum in China and Latin America.
Procter &amp; Gamble's reduced FY25 outlook reflects early tariff impacts and slower growth, but FY26 could see more upside if tariffs are eased and global consumer trends improve amid economic uncertainty.
The analyst has reduced the EPS projections for FY25 and FY26 due to expected margin compression. Fourth-quarter organic sales estimate has been slightly adjusted to a 1.9% increase based on flat volumes and 2% pricing growth.
The analyst has trimmed the fourth-quarter gross margin forecast by 30 basis points to 51.1%, down 10 basis points year-over-year, and cut EPS estimate by 9 cents to $1.44.
For FY25, the analyst has lowered gross margin expectations by 30 basis points to 51.6%, reflecting potential one-month tariff costs between $100 million and $160 million. The analyst has also reduced the sales and margin outlooks for FY26 and FY27 due to ongoing tariff pressures and slower category growth.
Price Action: PG shares traded higher by 1.04% at $161.16 at last check Friday.

U.S. stock futures fell on Thursday after a two-day advance. Futures of major benchmark indices were lower in premarket.
The administration&#8217;s mixed signals on tariffs fueled investor anxiety. While President Donald Trump hinted at a deal with China while speaking to reporters on Tuesday after market hours, the Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44970416/scott-bessents-china-de-escalation-scoop-delivered-to-wall-street-early-at-closed-door-event-2-2-trillion-in-gains-later-questions-arise-if-retail-investors-were">denied slashing steep tariffs</a> on Chinese imports unilaterally on Wednesday.

Insights From Analysts:
Acknowledging the swift and often daily shifts in tariff and geopolitical landscapes, Scott Wren, senior global market strategist at Wells Fargo, noted, "With the pace of change on the tariff and geopolitical fronts moving fast and sometimes adjusting on a day-to-day basis, investors are wondering what they might do to help navigate the uncertainties."
To navigate these uncertainties, Wren has advised investors to maintain <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44973246/market-dip-attractive-entry-point-says-wells-fargo-energy-large-and-mid-cap-stock-favored">exposure in higher-quality equities</a> and fixed income, emphasizing the need for a plan to withstand market volatility while pursuing growth.
Wren stated, "The first rule of thumb for our plan is to focus on quality in a diversified manner."
Pointing to the stronger balance sheets, dependable cash flows, easy credit access, and share buyback capabilities of larger companies, Wren said, "We continue to favor large- and mid-capitalization equities over small-cap."
Additionally, Wells Fargo favors the energy sector and holds favorable ratings on Information Technology, Financials, and Communication Services, according to Wren, who explained, "We believe these sectors feature long-term growth drivers and robust balance sheets. We suggest investors put funds to work in these sectors at current market levels. In our view, the pullback in stocks offers long-term investors an attractive entry point."
After Trump blasted Fed Chairman Jerome Powell in a Truth Social post on Monday and said that "Powell's termination can't come quickly enough,&#8221; during a Tuesday press conference, he changed his tone, saying, "I have no intention of firing him".
&#8220;Essentially, if there is a recession, President Trump will likely blame Fed Chairman Powell for failing to cut key interest rates fast enough,&#8221; said Louis Navellier of Navellier and Associates.
Talking about the ongoing uncertainty surrounding Trump&#8217;s policies, Ed Yardeni of Yardeni Research said, &#8220;Trump's Tariff Turmoil has put the world on edge. A new world order may be the ultimate result, but for now we've got the New World Disorder, leaving everyone scrambling to adjust to Trump's unpredictable policy pivots. The economic fallout is uncertain. The uncertainty is keeping Wall Street on edge.&#8221;
