Barclays, BofA Lower Colgate Targets Amid Cost Pressures
Watch: Watch upcoming earnings and any updates on the Optic White product launch to gauge if cost pressures ease or worsen.
Barclays cut Colgate's price target to $79 from $88 with an Equal Weight rating, citing rising input costs and dividend sustainability concerns. BofA trimmed its target to $102 from $105, lowering sales and EPS estimates due to delayed product launches and higher oil prices. The stock faces a cautious outlook amid bearish analyst views and ongoing input cost headwinds.
The target cuts and earnings estimate downgrades reflect growing pressure on Colgate's margins and dividend reliability, challenging its consumer staples defense narrative.
