Analyst Forecast
Kimberly-Clark sells essential tissue and personal-care products, but current forecasts show little revenue growth and slightly weaker earnings. Brand strength and productivity provide defense against commodity costs, while private-label competition limits pricing freedom. Demand is stable through recession, though consumers can trade down and retailers may resist further increases. Portfolio simplification could improve margins, but restructuring savings must translate into cash. The shares require evidence of renewed volume growth rather than continued reliance on price and cost reduction.
