Household Penetration in the U.S. Is Strong in Key Brands Yet Can Grow Further
To analyze the household penetration (HHP) of some of KVUE􀋖s iconic brands in the
U.S., we looked at an independent data vendor, Numerator. The sequential changes are
valuable to check, but we caveat the data in absolute terms may not be very reliable
given that it is based on consumers providing receipts, which we feel tends to skew
toward younger consumers, although the company notes matching to U.S. Census.
Using the HHP trends for the 52-week period ending 4/30, Tylenol (32.1%), Listerine
(28.9%), and Neutrogena (25.6%, in the face care category) appear to have some of the
highest household penetration in the U.S., although the data shows a deceleration in
HHP especially for the latter two brands. Note that Listerine􀋖s HHP has been worse
recently, while UW-rated Church & Dwight􀋖s TheraBreath HHP has improved (more
below under NielsenIQ). Additionally, the data points to high private label HHP,
especially in the categories pertaining to the Self Care segment that we examined below.
As such, management noted that the U.S. Self Care business has higher private label
exposure of about 25-30%, although this is much lower (~10%) for the overall company
in aggregate. We have provided more details in the tables below.
