1353 ET - Clorox's F2025 outlook doesn't include any potential impacts from tariffs, Chief Financial Officer Kevin Jacobsen said on a call with analysts earlier this week. Clorox should benefit from manufacturing products close to where they are used, Jacobsen says. The company reworked its supply chains during Covid, which should also reduce exposure to any potential tariffs, he adds. Jacobsen says Clorox is less exposed to tariffs "than you'd find at many other industries or other companies, just based on the nature of our portfolio." The company, which revised its full-year sales to be down 1% to up to 2% from flat to down 2%, will continue to work to minimize the effects of tariffs, he says. (connor.hart@wsj.com)
