Church & Dwight Co., Inc. is grappling with recent stock declines despite reporting flat revenues of $1.47 billion for Q1 2026, slightly exceeding analysts' projections. After a 3.6% drop in stock price to $93.53, investor confidence is shaky as the company manages a shift towards the slower-growing VMS business, driven by strategic pivoting to improve long-term growth. The company is also dealing with increased scrutiny as price targets have been adjusted downward due to expectations of a sales decline, even as it maintains strong cash flow. The overall outlook remains cautious as Church & Dwight aims for resilience amid these financial challenges.
