I rate Reckitt Benckiser a buy with a 12–24 month horizon and medium confidence, citing a 21% discount to peer multiples despite litigation overhang. Core Reckitt delivers high-margin, volume-led growth, with FY2025 organic growth of +5.2% and a 26.7% adjusted operating margin, supporting quality business status. Mead Johnson litigation risk remains the key discount driver; recent favorable legal outcomes improve sentiment but do not resolve federal MDL exposure.
