Clorox shares slide after company says cyberattack hit sales hard

Clorox shares fell after the company said a cyberattack disclosed in August significantly hurt sales in the prior quarter.While the Pine-Sol and bleach maker said it had contained the hack – which severely hampered its production – it said it continues to deal with the fallout even as its operations gradually get back to normal.

Raymond James also downgraded the stock to "market perform" Thursday morning, citing the larger than expected material impact the attack had on the company. Raymond James said it struggles "to see a recovery in the stock near-term, as it would be based on a view of a quick sales and profit bounce back from the attack during a period in which consumers appear to be making more price conscious choices and as commodity costs start to move upward again."

Clorox said after the bell Wednesday that it expects to report a 23% to 28% decline in sales during the quarter that ended Sept. 30. Clorox also said it estimates its gross margin for the quarter will be down from the year-ago period. It expects to post a per share loss of 35 cents to 75 cents. On an adjusted basis, it projects a loss of up to 40 cents a share.
