Clorox's Q3 results fell short of expectations on both share recovery and gross margin, with the company significantly lowering full-year guidance by approximately $0.40 at the EPS midpoint and revising gross margin outlook from -100 basis points to -250/-300 basis points. The Middle East conflict drove oil to $100/barrel creating a $20-25 million quarterly headwind, while ERP stabilization costs ran higher than expected. The GOJO acquisition closed April 1 with integration off to a strong start, but the litter relaunch proved bumpier than anticipated.
