Reckitt's like-for-like sales growth accelerated to 4.7% in the second quarter, up from 0.6% in the first quarter, driven by both the core portfolio and Mead Johnson Nutrition. Full-year guidance was maintained, and shares rose 5% on July 29.
The majority of Reckitt’s portfolio is well positioned in categories with long-term structural growth potential.
The infant nutrition segment will continue to dampen Reckitt’s growth potential, given depressed birthrates in the US.
