Gross Margin Decreases to 41.3%
Gross margin decreased 520 basis points to 41.3% from 46.5%, primarily driven by lower volume, impact from the inventory step-up of the GOJO acquisition, higher commodity costs and higher manufacturing and logistics costs, partially offset by cost savings. The ERP-related shipment comparison and GOJO inventory step-up each reduced gross margin by about 150 basis points.
FY27 Gross Margin Expected to be About 42%
FY27 gross margin is expected to be about 42%, reflecting higher-than-normal inflationary headwinds and negative mix more than offsetting the benefits from cost savings. This includes about 20 basis points of negative impact primarily related to the GOJO inventory step-up. The company's effective tax rate is expected to be about 23%.
Linda Rendle Reports Q4 Revenue of $1.95B
Reports Q4 revenue $1.95B, consensus $1.91B. "Our fourth-quarter results were in line with our expectations and reflect disciplined execution in a dynamic environment," said Chair and CEO Linda Rendle. "Throughout fiscal year 2026, we strengthened our business despite continued consumer and macroeconomic pressures. We expanded our portfolio through the acquisition of GOJO Industries, completed our U.S. ERP implementation, a foundational modernization of the systems and processes that underpin every aspect of our operations, while advancing our digital capabilities. Together, these actions have strengthened our foundation and position us well to navigate a challenging operating environment as we work to return to organic sales growth. We exited the year with improved execution, a stronger innovation pipeline and a clear plan to deliver superior value across our portfolio, better meeting evolving consumer needs and driving long-term growth. As we begin fiscal year 2027, we expect the operating environment to remain challenging, with continued cost volatility and a value-seeking consumer. Even so, we are starting the year from a stronger position to execute our strategy with discipline, build on the momentum we've created and deliver greater superiority across our portfolio. We are confident that the investments we've made in our brands, capabilities and products position us to deliver long-term value for shareholders."
