Kimberly-Clark Corporation executives disclosed at an investor conference on September 10, 2025, that the company faces approximately $150 million in stranded costs resulting from recent divestitures. These costs are projected to lead to a $0.30 to $0.40 reduction in near-term earnings per share (EPS).
This financial impact presents a significant short-term challenge for the company, as it directly affects its profitability. The disclosure provides a concrete quantification of the costs associated with its strategic transformation initiatives.
While Kimberly-Clark reiterated its 2030 financial targets, the immediate earnings headwinds from these divestiture-related costs are a material factor for investors to consider regarding the company's financial performance.
