Procter & Gamble (PG) — Overview

The Procter & Gamble Company (NYSE: PG) is one of the world’s largest consumer goods companies, manufacturing household brands including Tide, Pampers, Gillette, Oral-B, Crest, and Bounty. With 68 consecutive years of dividend increases — one of the longest streaks of any public company — PG is one of the most celebrated Dividend Kings in the market. Q3 FY2026 EPS of $1.59 beat the $1.56 estimate, and the company reaffirmed its full-year guidance with organic sales growing 2% year-over-year. PG is the definition of a defensive stock: roughly 55% of its revenue comes from international markets, its products serve basic household needs with consistent repeat purchase cycles, and its pricing power allows it to pass input cost inflation to consumers. PG was the one Dog of the Dow to finish 2025 in the red, making it the most contrarian pick in the 2026 basket. Tariff uncertainty on sourced materials and foreign exchange headwinds are the primary near-term risks for a company with heavy global manufacturing exposure.
