what happened
Consumer products maker Colgate-Palmolive will publish its third-quarter results on Friday morning, according to StockStory. Last quarter the company reported revenue of $5.36 billion, up 4.9% year on year. Gross margin came in well above analyst estimates, while organic revenue matched forecasts.
The market expects revenue to rise about 4% year on year this quarter, compared with 2% growth a year earlier. Colgate has nonetheless missed Wall Street revenue estimates several times over the past two years. Among peers, Procter & Gamble grew revenue 4%, beating expectations by 2%, while WD-40 posted 8.1% growth and topped estimates by 2.7%.
why it matters
Investors in consumer staples watch revenue and margin trends closely, since they show how well companies pass costs on to prices. Colgate shares gained 6.4% over the past month, against an average 3.6% rise across the segment. Results from Procter & Gamble and WD-40 have already set a benchmark for the group.
