Energizer Holdings Is Laying off Employees
Energizer Holdings Inc posted higher quarterly net income as it decreased costs in the face of anemic sales of its brand batteries and the impact of the stronger dollar on sales outside the US.
Energizer (also makes Schick razors and Playtex tampons), also said on that it would cut jobs in the household products division (includes batteries).
The company said in April that it expected anemic battery sales and foreign exchange trends to continue for the foreseeable future.
