How to read these bars and different assessments

Council is a separate blend of available disciplines; MoonshotScore above remains the five-pillar research rating.

Bars show each model's ordered assessment on its own scale, not a probability or a comparable investment return. The adjacent words give the assessment; more filled segments indicate a stronger model reading.

On Sep 10, 2026, the Munger lens read the price at that time as fairly valued against its own estimate of value.

Readings on this page are from Oct 5, 2026, except a card that shows its own read date.

1 · What is it?

What is The Clorox Company (CLX), and what does it report?

Short answer · as of

Clorox is not merely a bleach or disinfectant company. Its portfolio spans home cleaning, professional sanitation, cat litter, bags and wraps, charcoal, dressings and sauces, natural personal care, water filtration, and supplements, making consumer usage and retailer demand across distinct categories the underlying units of demand.

Research dated 2026-09-13.

Clorox is not merely a bleach or disinfectant company. Its portfolio spans home cleaning, professional sanitation, cat litter, bags and wraps, charcoal, dressings and sauces, natural personal care, water filtration, and supplements, making consumer usage and retailer demand across distinct categories the underlying units of demand.

Reported revenue is divided among Health and Wellness, Household, Lifestyle and International. Health and Wellness contributes the largest share, while the remaining segments expose Clorox to different purchase occasions, channels and category pressures.

2 · Latest results

What do the latest results show for The Clorox Company (CLX)?

Short answer · as of

The most recent reported quarter, Q4 FY2026, carried revenue of $1.95B.

Research dated 2026-09-13.

The latest annual results show lower revenue and profit than the prior year. The latest reported quarter also produced weaker sales, gross profit and earnings than the comparable period, despite revenue and adjusted earnings coming in above analyst expectations.

Operating cash flow recovered sharply after turning negative in the preceding quarter, but the sequence remains uneven. Management expects stronger gross margin by the end of the current fiscal year without fully recovering the full-year result, while planned spending on product superiority could support demand at the cost of near-term resources.

Where is operating spending going?

Revenue alongside research and development, selling, general and administrative expenses, and the FMP standardized operating result.

3 · Financial strengths and risks

What are the financial strengths and risks for The Clorox Company (CLX)?

Short answer

Cash and short-term investments were $0.00 at the Jun 30, 2026 balance-sheet date. This figure does not establish a cash runway.

Research dated 2026-09-13.

Clorox remains profitable and generates operating cash, but liquidity offers little protection against its debt load. Cash sits far below total debt, short-term liquidity ratios are below full coverage, and the cash balance ended below where it began across the reported window.

The main financial risk is that weak sales or incomplete gross-margin recovery reduces the cash available for capital spending, dividends and debt service. Recent cash generation and continued dividend payments show that the business still produces distributable cash, yet the volatile quarterly pattern makes sustained conversion more important than any isolated period.

4 · What to check next?

What should you watch next at The Clorox Company (CLX)?

Short answer · as of

The next earnings report is expected on Nov 3, 2026.

Research dated 2026-09-13.

Watch whether sales return to growth across the branded portfolio and whether gross profit improves alongside them. A healthier result would combine revenue progress, stronger gross margin and dependable operating cash flow rather than relying on earnings performance alone.

Management has set expectations for stronger cash generation, a better exit gross margin and eventual revenue benefits from current initiatives. The scheduled earnings release should reveal whether those claims are beginning to appear while analyst estimates assume continuing revenue and earnings growth over the following years.

Cash deserves separate attention after its sharp rise and subsequent fall. Stabilization alongside positive operating cash flow would strengthen the financial picture; renewed cash contraction without better sales or margins would increase the weight of the debt burden.

5 · Peer comparison

How does The Clorox Company compare with its peers?

Short answer

The Clorox Company's score ranks 13th of 13 in the bounded comparison shown, against 12 same-model peers. These are company scores, not expected investment returns. The set lists named competitors first, then companies in the same data-provider industry classification closest in market value; that classification is the provider's, not our judgment of business similarity.

Research dated 2026-09-13.

Clorox differs from a narrowly focused cleaning-products business because its brands serve household maintenance, pet care, grilling, food, personal care, filtration and wellness demand. That breadth diversifies purchase occasions, but it also means consolidated performance can reflect unrelated category movements.

Its reporting structure makes the mix visible: Health and Wellness is the largest segment, while Household, Lifestyle and International remain substantial contributors. Clorox therefore combines domestic branded staples with professional products and an international portfolio rather than depending on a single product family or sales channel.

What Investors Ask About The Clorox Company (CLX) — Consumer Defensive

Research dated 2026-09-13; the answers below are from that research, and the full attribution is under Sources. The last 3 questions are answered from this page's own dated data, not from the research.

Is Clorox mainly a bleach and disinfectant company?

Cleaning is central, but Clorox also sells cat litter, food-storage products, charcoal, dressings, personal care, filtration products and supplements. Its results reflect this broader collection of branded household and wellness categories.

Sources (as of 2026-09-13): Business description; Revenue by segment

Why does Health and Wellness matter so much to Clorox?

Health and Wellness is Clorox’s largest reported segment and includes consumer cleaning, professional sanitation and supplements. Its scale means weakness or recovery there can materially shape consolidated sales.

Sources (as of 2026-09-13): Business description; Revenue by segment

Can Clorox support its dividend while carrying heavy debt?

Clorox is profitable and continues to generate operating cash, but cash is small relative to debt and quarterly conversion has been uneven. Dividend durability therefore depends on sustained cash generation rather than the balance-sheet cash reserve.

Sources (as of 2026-09-13): Annual revenue and net result (USD millions); Operating cash flow by quarter (USD millions); Cash, investments and debt; Cash against market value; Recent dividends paid; Dividends per share, last 12 months

What would confirm Clorox gross-margin recovery?

Confirmation would require gross profit to strengthen across upcoming results while revenue stabilizes and operating cash flow remains positive. Management expects a stronger exit margin but does not expect full-year recovery, making the progression more informative than an isolated quarter.

Known dates and sources are recorded on their own rows; an em dash or UNRECORDED tier preserves a stored observation without inventing either. The quarterly income statement is provider-standardized (FMP) under one row, and scale definitions — a 0-100 rating, the band ladder, the Piotroski 0–9 range — are fixed rather than measured.
