Kimberly-Clark reported Q2 earnings per share of $1.80, missing the expected $2.01, and revenue of $4.19 billion, slightly below the $4.22 billion forecast. The company lowered its growth expectations due to cautious consumer spending, a fire at a distribution center, and a social media crisis in China that hurt sales.
