Each card carries a disclosed-size chip (HIGH / MEDIUM / LOW — how large the exposure is as a share of revenue, not how dangerous it is) and a nature tag: Built-in(the company’s own model, geography, or products) or Outside party (an external customer, supplier, or distributor it relies on).
“10-K Item 1: 'some of which are sole source or single-source suppliers'”
“10-K Item 1: 'Walmart Stores, Inc. and its affiliates, were 26%, 27% and 25% of consolidated net sales for each of the fiscal years ended June 30, 2026, 2025 and 2024'”
“10-K Item 1: 'five largest customers accounted for about half of the'”
Clorox's concentration profile is dominated by dependency rather than structure. Walmart Stores and its affiliates were 26% of consolidated net sales in the latest fiscal year, a medium-share exposure that has been stable, with the filing showing 27% and 25% in the two prior years. The five largest customers together accounted for about half of sales, also a medium-share exposure, which means Walmart is the anchor of a broader retail concentration rather than an isolated account. On the supply side, the company discloses that some of its suppliers are sole source or single-source, a high-share exposure that carries no disclosed percentage. That makes it the most idiosyncratic risk: a disruption at a single supplier could interrupt production regardless of demand. Taken together, the customer exposures are about bargaining power and shelf placement, shifting pricing and trade-spending terms, while the supplier exposure is about continuity of supply. The customer side is well-quantified and steady; the supplier side is the less visible and more event-driven risk.
