Clorox Company (CLX) has been a notable player in recent market activities, with a
surge in implied volatility for its stocks and decisive commentary from Jim Cramer, suggesting a good investment. There's a changing of the guard as CFO Kevin Jacobsen retires, and Luc Bellet steps into the role. Despite trading below its 200 & 50-day
SMA, Clorox has consistently recorded impressive
earnings, surpassing some forecasts, and revising its outlook accordingly, confirming its strength as a solid
dividend stock contender. Q2 2025 results pointed to challenges but showed the company's resilience and innovative strategies in operation under new leadership. Jim Cramer noted pressure on the 'safe stock', largely due to weak earnings, but the company still managed to raise its guidance after topping
quarterly sales estimates. Notably, underperformance against the
Nasdaq and S&P 500, alongside cautious outlooks, did exert some pressure on stock value, as did a downgrade in rating.
Partnerships and advancements in supply chain climate action, along with increased involvement in safety and ingredient transparency efforts, remain positive indicators of growth.
Strategic shifts are evident as Clorox moves towards a $500M Digital Transformation and prioritizes savings with a new operating model.
