Kimberly-Clark Benefits from Innovation Across Product Tiers -- Market Talk

Dow Jones01-28

1258 ET - Kimberly-Clark has been able to sell more of its products, even as consumers remain under pressure, because of its investments in innovation at every product tier, CEO Mike Hsu says. "We're growing because what we're doing is strengthening our offerings at every rung," Hsu says during a call with analysts. "We're continuing to bring great innovation at the top end, and then we are rushing that innovation through into our value tiers." Hsu says consumers are noticing that, and are responding well to the company's efforts to offer competitive costs. Organic sales rose 2.1% in the company's latest quarter, boosted by volume growth and partially offset by some investments to improve value propositions. (kelly.cloonan@wsj.com)
