What Does Wall Street Think About The Procter & Gamble Company (PG)?

The Procter & Gamble Company (NYSE:PG) is one of the best long term low volatility stocks to invest in. On January 27, Berenberg Bank reaffirmed a Hold rating on The Procter & Gamble Company and set a price target of $156. The same day, TD Cowen downgraded the stock to a Hold from a Buy while raising the price target to $156 from $150.

The firm told investors that the pace of The Procter & Gamble Company’s 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 released its fiscal Q2 2026 results on January 22, reporting net sales of $22.2 billion, up 1% compared to the prior year. Organic sales remained unchanged versus last year, and excluded the effects of foreign exchange and acquisitions and divestitures. 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.

The Procter & Gamble Company provides branded consumer packaged goods to consumers across the globe. Its operations are divided into Fabric & Home Care, Grooming, Beauty, Health Care, Feminine & Family Care, and Baby. The company boasts a strong portfolio of brands, which includes reputable names such as Head & Shoulders, Pantene, Old Spice, Olay, Herbal Essences, Safeguard, Tide, Always, Venus, Oral-B, Ariel, Crest, Tampax, and others.
