Kenvue Reports Second Quarter 2025 Results
- SUMMIT, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kenvue Inc. (NYSE: KVUE) today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 29, 2025. 'Kenvue has a strong portfolio of world-class, category-defining brands. We are actively focused on improving execution and performance, while advancing the comprehensive strategic alternatives review, to deliver our inherent value,' said Kirk Perry, Interim Chief Executive Officer. 'I'm thrilled to take on this new role at such an important time for the Company and am committed to ensuring we have the right talent, brand portfolio, and operational foundation in place to accelerate profitable growth and best position Kenvue to realize its full potential.' Second Quarter Summary Net sales decreased 4.0% vs the prior year period, primarily reflecting Organic sales 1 decline of 4.2% slightly offset by foreign currency benefit of 0.3%. Gross profit margin was 58.9% vs 59.1% in the prior year period. Adjusted gross profit margin 1 was 60.9% vs 61.6% in the prior year period. Operating income margin was 18.0% vs 3.9% in the prior year period. Adjusted operating income margin 1 was 22.7% vs 22.8% in the prior year period. Diluted earnings per share were $0.22 vs $0.03 in the prior year period. Adjusted diluted earnings per share 1 were $0.29 vs $0.32 in the prior year period. The Company is revising its outlook for Full Year 2025 to reflect year-to-date results as well as the underlying business and market conditions. In July, the Board announced a Chief Executive Officer transition and appointed Kirk Perry, current Kenvue Director, as Interim Chief Executive Officer, effective July 14, 2025. This follows the selection of Amit Banati as the Company's new Chief Financial Officer, effective May 12, 2025. The Board continues to advance the ongoing comprehensive review of strategic alternatives to unlock shareholder value. Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results Net Sales and Organic Sales Second quarter 2025 Net sales decreased 4.0% vs the prior year period, primarily reflecting Organic sales decline of 4.2% slightly offset by foreign currency benefit of 0.3%. Organic sales decline was driven by unfavorable value realization of 0.9%, reflecting planned strategic price investments, and 3.3% volume decline, which was impacted by sequential deceleration in category growth rate, weak allergy and sun seasons in North America, trade inventory fluctuations in certain customers, and changes in shipment timing versus last year in China. Gross Profit Margin and Operating Income Margin Second quarter 2025 Gross profit margin contracted 20 basis points to 58.9% from 59.1% in the prior year period. Adjusted gross profit margin declined 70 basis points to 60.9% from 61.6% in the prior year period. The year-over-year change in both measures reflects the impact from unfavorable mix, inflationary and foreign exchange headwinds, as well as strategic price investment, which more than offset savings from productivity gains attributable to our global supply chain optimization initiatives. Second quarter 2025 Operating income margin was 18.0% vs 3.9% in the prior year period, with the prior year figure impacted by non-cash charges related to asset impairment. Second quarter 2025 Adjusted operating income margin was 22.7% vs 22.8% in the prior year period. The year-over-year change in both measures reflects the year-over-year decline in Gross profit margin and Adjusted gross profit margin, partially offset by savings from Our Vue Forward, as well as quarterly phasing of brand support. Interest Expense, Net and Taxes Second quarter 2025 Interest expense, net was $94 million vs $92 million in the prior year period. Second quarter Effective tax rate was 28.6% vs 10.8% in the prior year period. The Adjusted effective tax rate 1 was 26.9% vs 25.7% in the prior year period. The year-over-year change in both measures largely reflects reductions in discrete tax benefits. Net Income Per Share ('Earnings Per Share') Second quarter 2025 Diluted earnings per share were $0.22 vs $0.03 in the prior year period and Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.29 vs $0.32 in the prior year period. 2025 Outlook 'We are adjusting our outlook for 2025 to reflect the year-to-date results, as well as our current expectations for the second half of the year, considering the dynamic external environment and underlying business fundamentals,' said Amit Banati, Chief Financial Officer. 'While current results do not reflect the Company's full potential, I am confident that we are taking the appropriate actions to deliver sustainable value for our shareholders.' The Company is revising its outlook for Full Year 2025 as follows: Net sales and Organic sales are expected to be down low-single-digits, assuming approximately neutral impact from foreign currency translation. Adjusted operating income margin is expected to decline year-over-year. Adjusted diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $1.00 to $1.05, including a low-single-digit unfavorable impact from foreign currency. The updated outlook is predicated on the current foreign exchange rates and the estimated impact from tariffs in place as of August 6, 2025. Kenvue is not able to provide the most directly comparable GAAP measures or reconcile Adjusted operating income margin or Adjusted diluted earnings per share to comparable GAAP measures on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts given the unpredictability of the timing and amounts of discrete items such as foreign exchange, acquisitions or divestitures, which may significantly impact GAAP results. Strategic Review As previously announced, the Board has been conducting a comprehensive review of strategic alternatives and has established a Strategic Review Committee to oversee the ongoing process. The strategic review continues to advance and the Board is considering a broad range of potential alternatives, including optimizing the Company's brand portfolio, while improving execution and enhancing operating performance to accelerate profitable growth and unlock the inherent value in Kenvue. The Company plans to update shareholders as the strategic review progresses. Leadership Appointments The Company has appointed Anindya (Andy) Dasgupta, a nearly 30-year global consumer products industry veteran, as Group President, Asia Pacific, effective July 14, 2025. With extensive leadership experience in health, nutrition, and food and beverage sectors, Mr. Dasgupta has held senior-level regional and global roles across Europe, the U.S., and Asia Pacific at consumer products companies, including GSK, PepsiCo, Fonterra, and Imperial Brands. He brings expertise in commercial strategy, sales, marketing, and business development. The Company also announced today that Michael (Mike) Wondrasch will be appointed as Kenvue's new Chief Technology & Data Officer effective August 25, 2025. Mr. Wondrasch brings nearly 30 years of experience at the intersection of technology, digital, and data across global Fortune 100 companies, including Avantor, Bunge, PepsiCo, and AmerisourceBergen. He will succeed Bernardo Tavares, who will remain with the Company through August 29, 2025 to help ensure a smooth transition.

Learn more at 1 Non-GAAP Financial Measures The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. There are limitations to the use of the non-GAAP financial measures presented herein. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP nor do they have any standardized meaning under U.S. GAAP. In addition, other companies may use similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures that are calculated differently from the way the Company calculates such measures. Accordingly, the non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to such similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The Company cautions you not to place undue reliance on these non-GAAP financial measures, but instead to consider them with the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplements to, not substitutes for, or superior to, the corresponding financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company believes the presentation of these measures is relevant and useful for investors because it allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to the method used by management. The Company believes these measures help improve investors' ability to understand the Company's operating performance and makes it easier to compare the Company's results with other companies. In addition, the Company believes these measures are also among the primary measures used externally by the Company's investors, analysts, and peers in its industry for purposes of valuation and comparing the operating performance of the Company to other companies in our industry. Below are definitions and the reconciliation to the most closely related GAAP measures for the non-GAAP measures used in this press release and the related prepared materials and webcast. Adjusted diluted earnings per share: We define Adjusted diluted earnings per share as Adjusted net income divided by the weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding. Management views this non-GAAP measure as useful to investors as it provides a supplemental measure of the Company's performance over time. Adjusted EBITDA margin: We define EBITDA as U.S. GAAP Net income adjusted for interest, provision for taxes, and depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for restructuring expenses and operating model optimization initiatives, costs incurred in connection with our establishment as a standalone public company ('Separation-related costs'), conversion of stock-based awards, stock-based awards granted to individuals employed by Kenvue as of October 2, 2023 ('Founder Shares'), impairment charges, the impact of the deferred transfer of certain assets and liabilities from Johnson & Johnson in certain jurisdictions (the 'Deferred Markets'), and losses on investments. We define Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of U.S. GAAP Net sales. Management believes this non-GAAP measure is useful to investors as it provides a supplemental perspective to the Company's operating efficiency over time. Adjusted effective tax rate: We define Adjusted effective tax rate as U.S. GAAP Effective tax rate adjusted for the tax effects on special item adjustments including amortization of intangible assets, restructuring expenses and operating model optimization initiatives, Separation-related costs, conversion of stock-based awards, Founder Shares, impairment charges, and losses on investments. We also exclude taxes related to the Deferred Markets and taxes related to the ® asset impairment charges. Management believes this non-GAAP measure is useful to investors as it provides a supplemental measure of the Company's performance over time. Adjusted gross profit margin: We define Adjusted gross profit margin (also referred to as 'Adjusted gross margin') as U.S. GAAP Gross profit margin adjusted for amortization of intangible assets, Separation-related costs, conversion of stock-based awards, Founder Shares, and operating model optimization initiatives. Management believes this non-GAAP measure is useful to investors as it provides a supplemental perspective to the Company's operating efficiency over time. Adjusted net income: We define Adjusted net income as U.S. GAAP Net income adjusted for amortization of intangible assets, restructuring expenses and operating model optimization initiatives, Separation-related costs, conversion of stock-based awards, Founder Shares, impairment charges, the impact of the Deferred Markets, losses on investments, and their related tax impacts (i.e. special items). Adjusted net income excludes the impact of items that may obscure trends in our underlying performance. Management believes this non-GAAP measure is useful to investors as the Company uses Adjusted net income for strategic decision making, forecasting future results, and evaluating current performance. Adjusted operating income: We define Adjusted operating income as U.S. GAAP Operating income adjusted for amortization of intangible assets, restructuring expenses and operating model optimization initiatives, Separation-related costs, conversion of stock-based awards, Founder Shares, impairment charges, and the impact of the Deferred Markets. Management believes this non-GAAP measure is useful to investors as management uses Adjusted operating income to assess the Company's financial performance. Adjusted operating income margin: We define Adjusted operating income margin (also referred to as 'Adjusted operating margin') as Adjusted operating income as a percentage of U.S. GAAP Net sales. Management believes this non-GAAP measure is useful to investors as it provides a supplemental perspective to the Company's operating efficiency over time. Free cash flow: We define Free cash flow as U.S. GAAP Net cash flows from operating activities adjusted for purchases of property, plant, and equipment. Management believes this non-GAAP measure is useful to investors as it provides a view of the Company's liquidity after deducting capital expenditures, which are considered a necessary component of our ongoing operations. Organic sales: We define Organic sales as U.S. GAAP Net sales excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and the impact of acquisitions and divestitures. We report changes in Organic sales on a period-over-period basis. Management believes reporting period-over-period changes in Organic sales provides investors with additional, supplemental information that is useful in assessing the Company's results of operations by excluding the impact of certain items that we believe do not directly reflect our underlying operations.

Kenvue mulls sale of some skin health and beauty brands, sources say
Kenvue is exploring the sale of some of its skin health and beauty brands , four people familiar with the matter said on Thursday, as the consumer health firm prunes an underperforming business segment to focus on core products. The company, which was spun out of Johnson & Johnson in 2023, is zeroing in on smaller brands in the unit to sell such as Clean & Clear , Maui Moisture , Neostrata, its German baby care brand Bebe, and Japanese brand , the sources said. It plans to hold onto the bigger names in the unit, such as Neutrogena and Aveeno , the sources said. There are about a dozen brands in the skin health and beauty unit, and sources cautioned that the divestiture package could change and no deal was guaranteed. Investment bankers at Goldman Sachs are working with Kenvue on the divestment process, they added. Kenvue and Goldman declined to comment. The around half-dozen brands earmarked for sale would generate more than $500 million of revenue together, two of the sources said, a small portion of Kenvue's overall revenue, which was $15.5 billion in 2024. The skin health and beauty unit has been a drag on Kenvue's earnings, but the company has dedicated more money to marketing, especially on Neutrogena ad campaigns. The unit's organic sales declined 4.8% year-over-year in Kenvue's latest quarter that ended March 30. Kenvue, which also makes Tylenol and Band-Aids, has faced activist pressure over the last year from Starboard Value, Toms Capital Management and Third Point. It settled with Starboard in March, when it added the investment firm's founder to its board. Some of the activists have been pushing the company to consider selling itself or certain brands. In May, the company brought on new Chief Financial Officer Amit Banati from Kellanova, Kellogg's spun-out snacking unit.

NEW YORK, June 12 (Reuters) - Kenvue (KVUE.N), opens new tab is exploring the sale of some of its skin health and beauty brands, four people familiar with the matter said on Thursday, as the consumer health firm prunes an underperforming business segment to focus on core products. The company, which was spun out of Johnson & Johnson (JNJ.N), opens new tab in 2023, is zeroing in on smaller brands in the unit to sell such as Clean & Clear, Maui Moisture, Neostrata, its German baby care brand Bebe, and Japanese brand the sources said. It plans to hold onto the bigger names in the unit, such as Neutrogena and Aveeno, the sources said. There are about a dozen brands in the skin health and beauty unit, and sources cautioned that the divestiture package could change and no deal was guaranteed. Investment bankers at Goldman Sachs (GS.N), opens new tab are working with Kenvue on the divestment process, they added. Kenvue and Goldman declined to comment. The around half-dozen brands earmarked for sale would generate more than $500 million of revenue together, two of the sources said, a small portion of Kenvue's overall revenue, which was $15.5 billion in 2024. The skin health and beauty unit has been a drag on Kenvue's earnings, but the company has dedicated more money to marketing, especially on Neutrogena ad campaigns. The unit's organic sales declined 4.8% year-over-year in Kenvue's latest quarter that ended March 30. Kenvue, which also makes Tylenol and Band-Aids, has faced activist pressure over the last year from Starboard Value, Toms Capital Management and Third Point. It settled with Starboard in March, when it added the investment firm's founder to its board. Some of the activists have been pushing the company to consider selling itself or certain brands. In May, the company brought on new Chief Financial Officer Amit Banati from Kellanova(K.N), opens new tab , Kellogg's spun-out snacking unit.
