Executive summary

Clorox makes and markets consumer and professional products for the home, including Clorox bleach and disinfecting products, Pine-Sol, Burt's Bees, Fresh Step cat litter, Hidden Valley salad dressings and Kingsford charcoal. Customers are mass merchandisers, grocery chains, club stores, online retailers and institutional customers. It is based in Oakland, California.

Clorox earns revenue from cleaning, household, wellness and lifestyle products that reach shoppers mainly through retailers. The data sheet carries few financial figures for the company at present, but it shows that Clorox pays a dividend with a yield of 5.7%.

StocksXray gives Clorox Co an X-Ray Score of 36 out of 100 (low confidence), ahead of 17% of the S&P 500 stocks in its sector. Its strongest lens is valuation (64) and its weakest is profitability (16).

Our fair value blend is $118.73. At $87.09 the stock trades 27% below that blend, so the label is "Fair" with high model uncertainty. Fair value is a range, not a price target.

How to read this report

Every number comes from SEC filings, end-of-day prices and the StocksXray models described on the methodology page. The X-Ray Score ranks each metric against the company's own sector. Fair value blends three models and carries a typical error of about 40%, so treat it as a range. Analyst ratings, price targets and earnings-call summaries are not part of this report. Educational research, not financial advice; read the disclaimer.
