Reckitt Benckiser Group PLC reported Wednesday a swing to pretax profit for the first half of the year and upgraded its revenue growth expectations for the full year.
The consumer-goods company--which houses Dettol, Harpic and Durex among its brands--said it currently sees 2022 revenue growth on a like-for-like basis in the range of 5% to 8%. It previously expected growth in the range from 1% to 4%.
Reckitt posted a pretax profit of 1.69 billion pounds ($2.03 billion) for the six months compared with a loss of GBP1.94 billion in the year-earlier period.
Revenue rose to GBP6.89 billion from GBP6.60 billion the prior year. A consensus estimate taken from the company's website had forecast first-half revenue at GBP6.69 billion. Meanwhile, revenue for the second quarter was GBP3.46 billion, beating market views of GBP3.27 billion
The board declared an interim dividend of 73 pence a share, unchanged from last year.
"The actions we have taken to broaden the shoulders of our Lysol and Dettol franchises, combined with our innovation and penetration building initiatives have built a significantly larger, sustainable base from which we will grow," Chief Executive Officer Laxman Narasimhan said.
