Business Units or Product Lines

Edgewell Personal Care Company operates through several key product lines: Wet Shave, Sun and Skin Care, and Feminine Care. The Wet Shave segment includes razors, blades, and related products, with brands like Schick and Wilkinson Sword. The Sun and Skin Care segment encompasses sun protection and skin care products, including brands like Banana Boat and Hawaiian Tropic. The Feminine Care segment includes tampons, pads, and liners under the Playtex brand.

Business Models for Each Product Line

Edgewell generates revenue primarily through the sale of consumer goods to retailers and distributors. The Wet Shave segment is driven by sales of razors and blades to both retail consumers and through e-commerce channels. Sun and Skin Care revenue is earned from sun protection and skincare products sold seasonally, especially in summer. Feminine Care products generate revenue when sold to retail and online channels. Major expenses include production and raw material costs, marketing and advertising, and distribution expenses.

Future Opportunities for Growth

Edgewell sees growth opportunities in expanding its e-commerce and digital sales channels, enhancing product innovation in core segments, and tapping into emerging markets with growing consumer bases. Additionally, developing sustainable and eco-friendly product lines could attract more environmentally conscious consumers.

Potential Major Risks

Major risks include intense competition from other established personal care brands, fluctuations in raw material costs, and changes in consumer preferences. Regulatory changes and economic uncertainties in key markets could also impact financial performance. Seasonal dependency of certain product lines, like Sun Care, presents additional risks of revenue fluctuations.
