Reckitt Benckiser Group Plc said its revenue growth targets for 2026 remain on track, with strong demand for its cleaning and health products in markets like China and India offsetting a slowdown in Europe.

Sales in the UK company’s core brands including Dettol and Harpic are expected to grow 4% to 5% in 2026, according to a statement Thursday, though the Strepsils lozenges maker experienced weaker demand for cold and flu products at the start of the year. Analysts surveyed by Bloomberg expect 4.7% growth.
