“we continue to expect some volatility here. We continue to expect strong competitive activity. But if I had to summarize, I think we are well positioned to continue to build the business in China.”
Andre Schulten · CFO
In context
“nnovation out there. We're driving distribution. Our Fem Care business is growing. Our Hair Care business is growing with a more streamlined and focused portfolio. Baby Care continues to accelerate with 20% growth. So the breadth is comforting. And the other comforting fact is that we understand what we did and what it's doing in the market. So our approach to how we define the priority and how we execute it, I think it's paying dividends. So that's reassuring that better consumer understanding, innovation that is grounded in that understanding with better shelf and retail execution, online and in stores is paying dividends. So I have a high level of comfort with the results and the breadth of results and how we accomplish them. It's still China. So we will continue to observe. I would -- we continue to expect some volatility here. We continue to expect strong competitive activity. But if I had to summarize, I think we are well positioned to continue to build the business in China. The market, hopefully, will strengthen over time, which will be a tailwind, and we'll keep track of where we are over the next 2 quarters. Operator: Your next question today will come from the line of Andrea Teixeira of JPMorgan. Andrea Teixeira: I was trying to -- Andre to dive into a little bit more on the price/mix and then by categories. I know you had invested more in Luvs and in particular, in diapers in the U.S. So I was hoping to see if you've seen response from the consumer. You did say that consumers in general have been into premiumization, but obviously, that's a picture -- overall picture. I wonder if you can kind of give us some examples of ways the Procter has been more active in pivoting for that low-income consumer and in categories where they are looking for value not on”
