Going forward, the company plans to bring its innovation efforts to the premium and mid-tier segments, which should drive further growth into the back half of the year, he says. "The consumption is very durable in our categories, and that's really driven by excellent innovation and excellent execution," he says. Kimberly-Clark up 4.5%. (kelly.cloonan@wsj.com)
