Bulls say / Bears say

Like-for-like revenue grew 5.8%, with growth across all four lead markets and the top ten brands; volumes also rose 1.5%, indicating some demand growth beyond price increases. (PZ Cussons)
Profitability improved as adjusted operating profit, excluding the sold PZ Wilmar joint venture, rose 24.5% and the operating margin gained 30 basis points. The company also delivered £8.5 million of cost savings while increasing marketing investment. (PZ Cussons, Edison Group)
The balance sheet is much stronger: net debt fell to £25 million from £112 million, supported by cash generation and asset-sale proceeds. The company has also cut its sensitivity to a 100-naira currency move to about £1.5 million from more than £7 million, and proposed a dividend increase. (PZ Cussons, PZ Cussons)
The profit improvement may be hard to repeat at the same pace: FY26 adjusted operating profit included £5.4 million of foreign-exchange gains, while adjusted EPS fell 2.7% as tax and minority-interest costs rose. Like-for-like volume growth was only 1.5%. (Edison Group, PZ Cussons)
Performance remains uneven in parts of the portfolio: St.Tropez was still declining in the UK and Europe, while UK like-for-like growth was only 0.5% and Hair Care sales fell. The North American recovery has not yet become a broad-based brand turnaround. (PZ Cussons, PZ Cussons)
Nigeria still represents about a quarter of group revenue, leaving PZ Cussons exposed to a single market where currency weakness has hurt profits in recent years. Management has reduced, but not removed, the effect of further naira movements. (PZ Cussons, Reuters)
