From the latest earnings call

Updated

  • Chief Financial Officer Nelson said Q2 organic sales growth trailed internal expectations, primarily because of the China diaper disruption and North American retailer inventory reductions.
  • Russ said China sellout had not deteriorated sequentially but had not turned positive, so the company retained a conservative outlook for the balance of 2026.
