SEC Filing Precedes Earnings
Colgate-Palmolive Company filed its quarterly report on Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Friday, documenting the company's financial performance for the second quarter of 2026. The filing arrives as the $73 billion consumer products manufacturer prepares to release full quarterly results later today.
The New York-based company, which closed at $91.60 in its most recent trading session, is scheduled to report Q2 2026 results on July 31, according to MarginX data. Management will host an earnings call the same day to discuss the quarter's performance and provide commentary on market conditions.
Regulatory Snapshot
The 10-Q filing provides investors and analysts with detailed financial statements, management's discussion and analysis, and disclosures about the company's operations during the three-month period. These quarterly reports are required by the SEC for all publicly traded companies and offer a comprehensive view of financial health between annual 10-K filings.
Colgate-Palmolive's portfolio spans oral care, personal care, home care, and pet nutrition products, with brands including Colgate toothpaste, Palmolive dish soap, and Hill's Pet Nutrition distributed across more than 200 countries.
