Newell Brands Inc
Investor Relations

Newell Brands makes everyday consumer products that people buy for school, work, home, and outdoor use. Its portfolio includes writing tools and school supplies, storage and cleaning products, candles and home fragrance, baby gear, cookware, and camping and coolers under brands such as Sharpie, Paper Mate, Elmer’s, Rubbermaid, Yankee Candle, Graco, and Coleman. The company mainly sells through mass merchants, grocery and drug stores, office supply chains, specialty retailers, online marketplaces, and other distributors. It makes money by selling branded goods at wholesale prices to these channels, which then resell them to consumers. Some products also reach customers through direct-to-consumer and business-to-business sales. What sets Newell apart is that it is mostly a brand owner and marketer of familiar household names rather than a single-product manufacturer. Its role is to design, source, market, and distribute a broad set of practical items that sit in the middle of the consumer goods value chain, where brand recognition and shelf placement matter a lot.

AI Summary
Q1 2026

Beat and raise: Newell said Q1 results came in ahead of expectations across all key financial metrics and raised full-year net sales, core sales and normalized EPS guidance.

Demand improving: Consumer demand and point-of-sale trends improved, with 6 of the top 10 brands gaining market share and 7 improving sequentially versus Q4.

Costs mixed: The company saw about $50 million of added commodity and transportation inflation, but lower tariff costs helped offset roughly half of that pressure.

Q2 inflection: Management expects core sales growth to return in Q2, helped by innovation, distribution gains, Baby, Writing, Outdoor & Recreation, Kitchen and a stronger international contribution.

Margins supported: Gross margin and operating margin both improved in Q1 despite higher A&P spending, but Q2 EPS is expected to absorb higher tariffs, fuel and marketing investment.
