JP Morgan has downgraded The Clorox Company (NYSE:CLX) to a Neutral rating and lowered its target price to $140 from $144. The research note from JP Morgan, authored by Harlan Sur, advises investors to hold the stock [1].
The downgrade comes amidst mixed analyst sentiment. While several analysts have issued "hold" ratings, others have maintained a "buy" or "underperform" rating. JP Morgan's move follows recent earnings reports, which showed a decline in revenue and earnings per share (EPS) compared to expectations. Clorox reported $1.45 EPS for the quarter, missing the consensus estimate of $1.57 [2].
Institutional investors have been active in Clorox's stock. Wakefield Asset Management LLLP acquired 3,121 shares in the first quarter, valued at approximately $460,000. Quantbot Technologies LP, American Century Companies Inc., Sei Investments Co., KLP Kapitalforvaltning AS, and Vanguard Group Inc. have also increased their stakes in the company [2].
Despite the downgrade, Clorox's stock price has remained relatively stable. The company's stock opened at $131.44 on Thursday and has a market capitalization of $16.20 billion. The stock has a price-to-earnings ratio of 23.60 and a PEG ratio of 3.41. Clorox's debt-to-equity ratio is 13.07, and it has a current ratio of 0.74 and a quick ratio of 0.44 [2].
The downgrade by JP Morgan could signal a shift in investor sentiment, but the company's strong financials and consistent dividend payments may continue to attract long-term investors. Clorox's focus on innovation and its diverse product portfolio in the consumer staples sector could provide resilience against market volatility.
