We remain focused on leveraging our increased brand investments to accelerate growth and deliver long-term value creation centered around profitable growth, durable cash flow generation, and disciplined capital allocation.”
Q4 Results
Net sales decreased by 0.1% to $3.7 billion, while Organic sales increased by 1.7%.

Full Year 2024 Results
Full year 2024 Net sales increased by 0.1% to $15.5 billion, with Organic sales growth of 1.5% and a foreign currency headwind of 1.4%.
Value realization was favorable across each segment and was driven by a combination of carry-over pricing from 2023 and price actions taken in 2024. The volume decline was driven by Skin Health and Beauty and Self Care, which offset the slight volume growth in Essential Health.
Paul Ruh, Chief Financial Officer, said,
