EWING, NJ, May 1, 2026 – Church & Dwight Co., Inc. (NYSE: CHD) today announced that the Company exceeded its first quarter outlook with stronger than expected sales, gross margin expansion, earnings growth and continued market share gains across its global portfolio. Reflecting our 2025 strategic portfolio actions, first quarter 2026 net sales increased 0.2% to $1,469.3 million, exceeding the Company’s first quarter outlook of a 1% decline. Organic sales grew 5.0% versus our 3% outlook with growth across all three divisions and was driven by volume growth of 5.3%, partially offset by negative pricing and mix of 0.3%.

Rick Dierker, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our brands continue to perform exceptionally well in this dynamic macroeconomic environment. Solid category growth and the performance of our balanced portfolio of value and premium products provide further confidence in our full-year outlook. Our growth was broad-based with volume growth driven by strong innovation and distribution wins across all domestic classes of trade. Our operating model of consistent delivery of sales growth, margin expansion, and efficient working capital management leads to strong cash flow generation, fueling our investments in our existing brands and the acquisition of market leading new brands.

“In the first quarter, the Company’s domestic division grew 5.4% organically due to broad based growth across our household and personal care portfolio. The international division grew organically 3.7% in the first quarter, driven by growth in both GMG and our subsidiaries. Our Specialty Products division’s organic sales grew 3.1% with strong global results. Global e-commerce also continued to grow in the first quarter. Global online sales now represent 24% of total consumer sales. Finally, the Company generated solid cash flow in the quarter, and we continue to expect approximately $1.15 billion of cash from operations this year.

“Reported EPS was $0.91, compared to $0.89 last year, Adjusted EPS was $0.95, an increase of 4.4%. First quarter Adjusted EPS exceeded the Company’s outlook of $0.92 driven primarily by higher sales volume and strong gross margins.”

First Quarter Review

Consumer Domestic net sales were $1,117.7 million, a $12.1 million or 1.1% decrease reflecting the Company’s 2025 strategic portfolio actions. Organic sales increased 5.4% due to volume (+5.5%) partially offset by price and product mix (-0.1%). Organic growth in THERABREATH™ mouthwash and toothpaste, ARM & HAMMER™ cat litter, HERO™ and OXICLEAN™ was partially offset by declines in WATERPIK™ flossers. Reported Consumer Domestic sales also included growth from the TOUCHLAND™ acquisition offset by the sales impact from last year’s strategic portfolio actions.

Consumer International net sales were $273.9 million, a $12.0 million or 4.6% increase. Organic sales increased 3.7% due to higher volume (+5.3%) partially offset by lower price and product mix (-1.6%).

Reported Consumer International sales also included growth from the TOUCHLAND™ acquisition and was offset by the sales impact from last year’s strategic portfolio actions.

Specialty Products net sales were $77.7 million, a $2.3 million or 3.1% increase. Organic sales also increased 3.1% due to a combination of higher volume (+2.0%) and higher price and product mix (+1.1%).

Gross margin increased 140 basis points to 46.4%. Adjusted gross margin was also 46.4%1, an increase of 130 basis points driven by higher volume, productivity, favorable mix from our acquisitions and portfolio actions partially offset by higher inflation and tariff costs.
