Company Strategy

PG Portfolio of Leading Brands

“The April–June quarter provided a very strong finish to fiscal year 2023 — top-line growth, bottom-line growth, and cash generation. The team met or exceeded our going-in plans for sales, earnings, and cash in a difficult operating environment and despite significant cost headwinds. We remain committed to our strategy — a focus on daily use categories where performance drives brand choice, superiority (of product, package, communication, go-to-market execution and value), productivity, constructive disruption, and an agile and accountable organization structure and culture — all in pursuit of sustainable, balanced growth and value creation.”

JON MOELLER

P&G CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD, PRESIDENT & CEO

These strategies have enabled us to build and sustain strong momentum, and they remain the right strategies to manage through the near-term cost and operational challenges we're facing and to deliver balanced growth and value creation
