CL's valuation appears fair, fundamentals are somewhat mixed and the outlook is broadly stable.

Score change since last week

The score rose 1 point, mainly due to valuation and price changes. Price fell 2.2%, from $90.75 to $88.77. Reported EPS was unchanged, so the lower price improved valuation support.

Valuation and price changes added 0.2 points. The comparison uses the same available inputs on both dates. Displayed changes are rounded to whole points.

Valuation

Valuation stays neutral because earnings are difficult to compare across periods. Business trends, outlook and financial risk still contribute to the overall score.

Cash flow & growth

Business trends are mixed. Over the past year: revenue +5.2%, operating margin -1.1 percentage points. Free cash flow is 18.3% of revenue. The business score is 58.6/100. Growth, margins and cash generation drive the score. Missing or older data receives less weight.

Favorable scenario

Weaker business results limit upside support. Price history provides the reference because earnings are difficult to compare.

The calculation starts with the stock’s typical weekly price movements, adjusted for business performance and outlook. Unusually large jumps have less influence. The result is 15% upside, or about $99.82. This uses the 15% minimum allowance.

This is a scenario based on our model, not a forecast or probability.

Downside scenario

The 20.2% downside is driven by operating stress: the model assumes earnings fall 10.9% and the PE falls 10.4%. That gives $2.25 per share at a 30.8× PE, or about $69.28. Price swings alone suggest 15.7% downside.

This is a scenario based on our model, not a forecast or probability.
