What are Wall Street analysts saying about Procter & Gamble stock?

Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Procter & Gamble stock:

1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Procter & Gamble lagged the industry year to date as it is witnessing strained margins owing to increased commodity and shipping costs, adverse currency, higher business investments and aggressive pricing from private-label products amid intense competition. Moreover, sales remain muted due to weak demand and lower prices. While the company expects recently announced price increases to help rebound sales and margins, analysts’ fear of impacts on demand and consumption. Also, softness in the grooming and baby care businesses remains concerns. However, the company has an impressive earnings surprise history, which continued in fourth-quarter fiscal 2018 marking its 13th consecutive beat. The company’s focus on product improvement, packaging and marketing initiatives, and productivity cost-savings plan bodes well. Further, it is benefiting from higher demand for skincare products, along with fabric and home care products." (10/15/2018)
2. Wells Fargo & Co analysts commented, "We still believe PG is on the right track, but remain concerned with slow progress despite a focus on improving speed & agility. We also continue to see limited n.t. positive catalysts as FY19 guidance is 2H weighted, with pricing not being realized until late FY19. We maintain our $78 price target & Market Perform rating." (8/16/2018)
3. Jefferies Financial Group Inc analysts commented, "P&G’s 3Q was disappointing as org sales (+1% vs. Street +2.3%) and GM% (49.4% vs. 50.0%) fell short, w/co. moving org sales guide to low end of 2-3% range. FX/non-op items contributed to a $0.02 beat. FY18 EPS edged up (+6-8% YoY from +5-8%) and acquisition of Merck KGaA’s Consumer business should be modestly accretive. Low bar, but shares likely to trade off on weak 3Q. Negative read-through for HPC group and should fan the flames of pricing/GM % worries." (4/19/2018)
