Colgate-Palmolive reported an 8.4% increase in revenue for Q1, driven by strong performance outside North America. However, its North American segment saw a 28% decline in operating profit due to tariffs and freight cost pressures. The company is expanding its SGPP productivity program, aiming to save $200 million to $300 million annually by 2028 through supply chain and operational improvements. Despite solid cash flow and manageable debt, Colgate-Palmolive's stock trades at a high forward P/E ratio above 23, leading analysts to maintain a hold rating until profitability improves further.
