P&G Q4 EPS Tops, But Revenue Misses and FY2027 Outlook Disappoints; $3.8B Thorne Deal Confirmed
PG is trading near its 52-week low of $137.62 (7.4% above the low).
Summary
P&G's Q4 results were mixed: EPS of $1.43 beat by $0.02, but revenue of $21.2B missed the $21.38B consensus. More concerning is the FY2027 guidance—net sales growth of 1–3%, down from 3.3% in FY2026, signaling a slowdown. This follows the July 29 earnings release that flagged a $1B cost headwind and flat organic sales. The $3.8B Thorne acquisition, announced yesterday, adds a premium wellness brand but comes amid margin pressure. The combination of weak guidance and a large cash outlay may weigh on sentiment. Watch for regulatory approval and integration updates on the Thorne deal, expected to close in Q4 2026.
