$Kimberly-Clark (KMB.US)$ shares declined after the company issued weaker 2024 earnings growth outlook, hurt by fluctuations in foreign exchange rates in countries where the company distributes its products including Huggies, Kleenex and Cottonelle.
The company expects 2024 adjusted earnings per share to grow at a high single-digit rate on a constant-currency basis from a year earlier. For 2023, the company posted a 17% jump in adjusted EPS, according to its press release Wednesday.
Net sales growth is forecast to take a 300-basis point hit from currency translation and 60 basis points from the Brazil Tissue divestiture, it said.
$金佰利 (KMB.US)$ 受該公司分銷Huggies、Kleenex和Cottonelle等產品的國家的外匯匯率波動的影響，該公司發佈了疲軟的2024年盈利增長展望，股價下跌。
該公司預計，按固定貨幣計算，2024年調整後的每股收益將比去年同期以較高的個位數速度增長。根據週三的新聞稿，該公司公佈2023年調整後的每股收益增長了17％。
它說，預計淨銷售增長將受到匯率折算的衝擊300個點子，巴西紙巾剝離將打擊60個點子。
