TD Cowen Sees a Slower Recovery Path Taking Shape at Procter & Gamble (PG)

The firm told investors that the pace of The Procter & Gamble Company’s (NYSE:PG) recovery is “likely to drag”, and that bulls own the shares on the assumption that the company’s organic sales growth bottomed in Q2 of 2025 at 0% and would recover on a recovery in market share. However, TD Cowen expects the company’s growth to “remain subdued” at 2% over the next two years, primarily due to pressure on the Hispanic consumer and a lack of pricing power.

The Procter & Gamble Company (NYSE:PG) released its fiscal Q2 2026 results on January 22, reporting net sales of $22.2 billion, up 1% compared to the prior year.

Diluted net earnings per share were $1.78, reflecting a drop of 5% compared to the prior year, attributed primarily to incremental restructuring charges in the current year.
