What these concentrations mean together

updated 2026-10-04

Clorox's concentration profile combines a structural geographic tilt with a retail-channel dependency. 86% of net sales were attributable to U.S. markets, a high-share exposure that is structural: it reflects where the business operates rather than any single counterparty, and it ties results to the U.S. consumer and U.S. retail environment. On the customer side, net sales to the largest customer, Walmart Stores, Inc. and its affiliates, were 27% of consolidated net sales, a medium-share dependency. The filing also notes that the five largest customers accounted for nearly half of consolidated net sales, another medium-share dependency that necessarily includes Walmart. Together these point to one theme: a U.S.-centered business sold through a small group of large retailers. The geographic exposure is the broad backdrop and is hard to change, while the customer exposure is the one where an idiosyncratic event, such as a shelf-space or pricing dispute with a major retailer, could move results most directly. The customer exposures overlap and should not be treated as additive.

Concentration counts reflect items disclosed in each peer’s most recent 10-K; disclosed-size classification uses TrendMatrix’s internal 10-K extraction taxonomy.

Concentration disclosures are extracted verbatim from SEC 10-K filings; the disclosed-size classification and the synthesis above are engine-derived. Size reflects how large each exposure is against fixed share thresholds (HIGH >50%, MEDIUM 25–50%, LOW <25% or an explicit diversification statement), not a judgment of how dangerous it is, and is not a buy/sell rating, a price target, or a view on the stock.
