Clorox Works To Free Up Resources To Support Its Stout Brand Intangible Assets

With its entrenched retail standing and unrelenting focus on investing in its leading brand mix, Clorox has withstood the onslaught of pressures from covid, supply chain angst, rampant inflation, and an August 2023 cybersecurity attack. More recently, it has acknowledged a step-up in industrywide promotional spending, particularly in litter, bags, and wraps. Still, we don’t believe this suggests an irrational competitive landscape or that the firm is pursuing a volume-over-value strategy. Instead, we believe Clorox remains committed to long-term investments to maintain its competitive edge.
