Energizer sees Q1 adjusted EPS 20c-30c, consensus 69c

The company said, “Our earnings cadence this year will be influenced by a challenging sales comparison and transitory costs, both of which are primarily impacting the first quarter. Following the first quarter, we expect to generate double digit Adjusted earnings per share growth over the remainder of the year. For the first quarter, we expect organic Net sales to decline high-single digits and Adjusted earnings per share to be in the range of $0.20 to $0.30.”
