Tone of the day
What the score means. Each score rates how good or bad the news was for the company, from −10 (clearly bad) to +10 (clearly good). 0 is neutral, and anything beyond ±6 is strong and rare. It rates the coverage, not the share price.
Why it scored this way
Coverage centred on third-quarter core revenue growth of 3.3%, with double-digit gains in India and South Asia and a expected North American rebound for Lysol. A new nighttime Mucinex product and a minor marketing hire added a mildly positive backdrop.
