Financial Performance

3 Insights

Net sales increased 1% to $43.6 billion for the six months ended December 31, 2024, driven by a 1% increase in both unit volume and higher pricing. However, unfavorable foreign exchange partially offset these gains. Excluding acquisitions, divestitures, and foreign exchange, organic sales increased 2%.

Net earnings were $8.6 billion, a 7% increase compared to the prior year, primarily due to the non-cash impairment charge on the Gillette intangible asset in the prior year. This was partially offset by higher restructuring charges in the current year related to the liquidation of operations in certain Enterprise Markets.

Gross margin decreased slightly by 10 basis points to 52.2% of net sales, driven by an unfavorable product mix and higher commodity costs. These negative impacts were partially offset by manufacturing productivity savings and increased pricing.
