Executive Strategic Foundation
Purpose. Translate P&G;’s current focused portfolio, supply chain and productivity program into an integrated execution
framework that strengthens competitiveness while funding consumer-facing growth.
Verified program. In June 2025, P&G; announced a two-year effort beginning in fiscal 2026 across portfolio, supply chain
and organization design. P&G; expected approximately $1–$1.6 billion of pre-tax non-core restructuring costs and up to
7,000 reductions in non-manufacturing roles over the two-year period.
citeturn0search1turn0search2
Current status. P&G;’s July 29, 2026 results state that more than half of the plan’s restructuring costs were incurred in
FY2026, with the remainder expected in FY2027. The company reported FY2026 net sales of $87.0 billion, organic sales
growth of 1%, core EPS growth of 1% and $19.6 billion of operating cash flow.

Strategic context. The restructuring program is an acceleration of P&G;’s existing Integrated Growth Strategy, whose
pillars are Portfolio, Superiority, Productivity, Constructive Disruption and Organization.

1. Current Situation & Strategic Priorities
Area
Verified current foundation
Execution implication
Portfolio
P&G; is making selective exits of categories, brands and
product forms in individual markets; potential brand
divestitures are part of the announced approach.
citeturn0search1
Prioritize businesses and forms where
competitive advantage, consumer relevance
and returns are strongest.
Supply chain
Portfolio moves enable related interventions including
right-sizing and right-locating production to improve
efficiency, innovation speed, cost and resilience.
citeturn0search1turn0search5
Reconfigure capacity around demand, service,
cost and strategic resilience.
Organization
P&G; is broadening roles, creating smaller teams and
leveraging digitization and automation; up to 7,000
non-manufacturing roles may be reduced.
citeturn0search1turn0search5
Redesign work end-to-end while protecting
critical capabilities and execution continuity.
Productivity
P&G; uses productivity to fund superiority, strengthen
effectiveness, offset cost/currency pressure and generate
cash.
citeturn0search9
Track savings as funding capacity for
consumer-facing investment, not simply cost
cutting.
Digital / AI
P&G; says AI-enabled molecular discovery, supply-chain
automation, data platforms and digital capabilities are being
scaled across its value chain.
citeturn0search11
Use technology where validated benefits
improve innovation, quality, availability or
productivity.
Strategic priorities
01 — Focus the portfolio: concentrate investment on daily-use categories and product forms where performance drives
brand choice and where P&G; can sustain superiority.
02 — Rebuild the supply network: right-size and right-locate production, inventory and logistics while protecting service
levels.
03 — Convert productivity into growth: redirect structural savings toward product superiority, innovation, brand building
and consumer value.
04 — Simplify work: eliminate unnecessary layers and handoffs while creating broader, more accountable end-to-end
roles.
05 — Scale constructive disruption: expand automation, advanced analytics, AI-enabled innovation and digital operating
capabilities with measurable ROI.
Important framing
The $1–$1.6 billion figure is an expected pre-tax non-core restructuring cost, not a standalone investment fund or total
transformation budget.

citeturn0search4turn0search16
Adjusted free-cash-flow productivity: 100%. Shareholder returns: more than $15B in FY2026.
citeturn0search4
FY2027 outlook

the $1–$1.6B non-core restructuring costs to be incurred in FY2027.
citeturn0search4
Recommended outcome framework
• Portfolio: improve mix toward categories, brands and forms with stronger consumer relevance and returns.
• Productivity: deliver recurring savings that can be reinvested into superiority and innovation.
• Supply: improve cost, service, inventory and resilience through a more right-sized footprint.
• Organization: reduce unnecessary complexity while retaining critical technical and commercial capabilities.
• Consumer: preserve or strengthen superiority across product, package, brand communication, retail execution and
value.
• Cash: sustain strong cash generation while funding priority growth and returning capital to shareholders.

EXECUTIVE CONCLUSION
P&G;’s current transformation is best understood not as a standalone $1.6 billion spending program, but as a
two-year acceleration of its Integrated Growth Strategy. The core execution loop is portfolio focus → supply-chain
redesign → organizational simplification → productivity savings → reinvestment in superiority and innovation. FY2026
established the foundation; FY2027 is the remaining major restructuring and productivity execution year.
