- Revenue grew 14.5%, a 14-quarter high, led by 7% volume growth in line with street expectations.
- EBITDA grew about 8%, less than revenue growth, causing margin compression and a lower stock price.
- Management widened its guided margin band to 22-24% from 22.5-23.5% citing near-term raw material price cyclicality.
- Home care business grew over 20%, driven largely by price hikes and premiumization; beauty and well-being also did well; food and refreshments were in line.
- Management said it is stepping up innovation and expects demand to remain resilient despite uncertain raw material prices.
