Clorox price target lowered to $139 from $151 at Jefferies

Jefferies analyst Kaumil Gajrawala lowered the firm’s price target on Clorox (CLX) to $139 from $151 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Clorox faces a challenging second half amid geopolitical tensions, inflation, and ongoing share losses, with only limited category improvement, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Q3 organic growth is expected to slightly miss and FY26 EPS guidance may be lowered, with further estimate cuts and longer-term outlook commentary remaining the key focus, the firm adds.
