Here's What Investors Should Know Heading Into Procter & Gamble's Q1 Earnings
Global consumer packaged-goods giant Procter & Gamble (NYSE: PG) will report first-quarter fiscal 2022 earnings on Tuesday, Oct. 19. The company is coming off a solid year in fiscal 2021 when consumers who were spending more time at home bought more of its products.
Fiscal 2022 will bring new challenges as well as some of the same from 2021. The world is cautiously learning to live with the presence of COVID-19, and economies are emerging from lockdowns in phases. Throughout the pandemic, consumer demand has increased and remained elevated while supply chains were negatively affected. P&G's ability to deal with these bottlenecks is the primary issue investors should focus on in its upcoming report.
