Comments: Johnson & Johnson struck a victory pose this spring when it acquired Vogue International for $3.3 billon. Vogue markets an array of personal care brands, including the OGX collection of shampoos, conditioners, treatments, styling products, body care and bath products; the FX line of hair styling products, and the Proganix and Maui Moisture hair care lines. Vogue’s annual sales are estimated at $300 million.
“Our acquisition of Vogue International’s full line of leading advanced hair care products sold in the US and in 38 countries will strengthen our global presence in this important category,” said Jorge Mesquita, worldwide chairman, consumer, Johnson & Johnson. “Vogue International’s commitment to quality, innovation, and consumer preference complement our consumer portfolio, while also presenting attractive hair care category growth opportunities for Johnson & Johnson.”

J&J’s skin care sales fell 6% last year to $3.5 billion, due to negative currency impact. Higher sales of Neutrogena and Aveeno were offset by lower sales in in China.
Sales of baby care products fell 8.7% to $2.0 billion. Sales gains of 1.2% were wiped out by currency’s impact of 9.9%.
Oral care sales fell 4.1% to $1.6 billion, as growth of 5.2% was offset by negative currency impact of 9.3%.
For the first quarter of 2016, baby care sales fell 11.7% to $451 million, and oral care and skin care sales each dropped 4.5% to $385 million and $862 million, respectively.
