Kimberly-Clark Corporation 실적 발표
Buzzberg 분석
Kenview acquisition shareholder vote expected to pass overwhelmingly
Kimberly-Clark reported a strong Q4 with volume/mix growth, though currency and pricing were headwinds. Management guided to a neutral 2026 with flat EPS, expecting margins to expand on productivity. A key negative was the loss of partial diaper distribution at a major club channel (Costco), which will be a ~60bps growth headwind. 8th consecutive quarter of volume/mix growth, with Q4 vol/mix up 1.7% and a 4.1% two-year stack in North America.

KMB will lose partial distribution of diapers and pull-ups at a major club (implied Costco) starting Q1 2026, a headwind that is built into guidance.
근거
“However, you know, we did see a major club player has moved away from, you know, branded exclusivity in our category. And so we'll see, you know, partial loss of diapers and pull-ups distribution in the North America club channel. And”

The $200M input cost inflation in 2025, including tariffs, is not expected to recur in 2026, but management isn't planning for inflation either, seeing costs as largely flat. — If input costs are flat, competitive pressure to lower prices may come from KMB's productivity savings, and the lack of a tailwind from input costs could moderate promotional pushes but also signals a stable cost environment.
근거
“In terms of diapers, again, we're growing by driving innovation and brand building that grows the category and cascading that to all tiers.”

KMB is losing exclusive branded placement for diapers and pull-ups at a major US club (Costco), with the loss starting in Q1 2026 and creating a ~60bps headwind to growth.
근거
“As I mentioned, that'll be a headwind of around 60 basis points of growth on the year that is reflected in our outlook.”
Management plans to take market share in China (+270 bps in diapers), Indonesia, Korea, and Brazil, indicating underlying momentum in international markets despite a soft North American consumer.
근거
“China was up 270 basis points on diapers. And then outside China, you know, Femcare in Indonesia was up almost 200 basis points. Korea was up 60. Australia up 50. Brazil up 40.”
Management expects 2026 to be 'one of its best years for innovation' and will step up new product activation, indicating high reinvestment in marketing and innovation.
근거
“And I agree with Mike, 26 should probably be one of our best years for innovation. And we're going to continue executing that strategy and are optimistic we'll continue to be able to deliver what consumers are looking for.”
The $200M input cost inflation in 2025, including tariffs, is not expected to recur in 2026, but management isn't planning for inflation either, seeing costs as largely flat.
근거
“As a reminder, we had around $200 million of input costs that we dealt with last year, and that included the headwinds, which were unexpected, related to tariffs. As we go into this year, though, we're not expecting that.”
