Procter & Gamble on Friday reported weaker-than-expected revenue as lower demand in China again weighed on its sales. The company reported flat volume for the quarter. The metric excludes pricing, which makes it a more accurate reflection of demand than sales. The company called out volume declines in China for both its hair care and oral care segments. Both P&G's health care and baby, feminine and family care divisions both reported 1% declines in volume for the quarter.

Procter & Gamble on Tuesday reported mixed quarterly results, but the company's volume increased for the first time in more than two years. Volume excludes pricing, making the metric a more accurate reflection of demand than sales. Over the last several years, P&G's price hikes across its portfolio, from diapers to detergent, fueled its sales growth, but volume flattened or even declined as consumers bought less of its products. All three of those segments reported 2% volume growth for the quarter. For fiscal 2025, P&G anticipates core net earnings per share in a range of $6.91 to $7.05.

In October, executives said that they anticipated returning to volume growth in fiscal 2024. However, three of P&G's divisions reported volume growth for the quarter. The company's grooming business, home to its Gillette and Venus razors, reported volume growth of 2%. And fabric and home care, which includes Febreze and Swiffer, saw 1% volume growth. That's a reversal from the last two fiscal years, when commodity costs weighed on the company, leading to price hikes.
