Highlights

How we pick these

  • Shrinking share count. Diluted shares fell 3.3% in a year, so each share owns more of the business.

Things to watch

  • Insiders selling. 9 insiders sold $12M of stock over the past 365 days and none bought (0% under pre-set trading plans).
  • Below peers: stock pay as % of revenue. Stock pay as % of revenue of 1.2% ranks 9 of 11 household products companies we cover (median 0.8%).

How we got here: a discounted-cash-flow model of Church & Dwight's free cash flow after stock-based pay with after-tax interest added back ($1B, FY2026 Q3 TTM), growing 2.9% and 2.9% in the next two years (forecasts, guidance and its record), then back to 2.2% by year five, and fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%. Lower and higher growth cases span ~$47–~$89 ; that spread sets a 25% margin before we rate Buy or Sell.

Produced by Fundamentalytics' automated valuation model on November 3, 2026, using delayed market prices. Rating meanings, methodology and conflicts: recommendations disclosure and research disclaimer. General research, not personal advice — it does not consider your circumstances. Prices can fall as well as rise.

Our value per share comes from a discounted-cash-flow model of Church & Dwight's free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $1B, FY2026 Q3 TTM, with after-tax interest added back): growth for five years as below (the first two years from forecasts, guidance and the company's record), fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%, then cash added and debt and other claims subtracted. These are model values under stated assumptions, not price targets or recommendations.

Valuation models

We value Church & Dwight as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 7%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 0.42 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Options strategies

All options ideas

How Church & Dwight’s listed options are priced, and three ways to use them that follow from our valuation. Quotes are delayed, read November 2, 2026. Check the live chain at your broker before trading.

Cash-secured put

Not offered: rated Sell.

We suggest selling a put only on well-rated companies, at a strike where the price you would pay if assigned (strike less premium) is at or below our fair value.

Covered call

Not offered: no liquid call at or above our price target — the model says the upside is worth more than any listed strike.

For holders: sell a call at a strike at or above our fair value, so the shares are only sold at a price the model calls full value.

Collar

Not offered: no liquid put and call pair for the same expiry.

For holders of a stock trading at or above our fair value: buy a put for a floor and sell a call to pay for it.

General research, not personal advice. Options can lose you more than you expect and are not suitable for everyone: put sellers can be made to buy shares that keep falling, call sellers give up gains above the strike, and results or news can move prices sharply. Chances shown are approximations from each option’s delta. Spreads, fees and early assignment are not modelled.
