Unilever PLC (LON:ULVR) reports second-quarter results on Thursday with its shares still slightly lower than where they finished 2019 and still 16% below the all-time high seen in September that year.
In the past year and a half, the consumer goods company has benefitted from its strong homecare products range as people got more fastidious with their household cleaning and handwashing during the pandemic.
The stock was one of the most bought at all three of the UK’s largest investment platforms, with investors keen to hear the Anglo-Dutch giant’s decision on how to spin off its tea business later this year, whether by IPO, a demerger, a joint venture or disposal.
