Current thesis
Haleon's official H1 results showed improving operating quality: organic revenue grew 2.6%, Q2 accelerated to 3.1%, North America improved to 3.1%, Oral Health grew 6.2%, and adjusted operating profit rose 8.2% at constant currency. Productivity, free cash flow of £769m and continued brand investment could sustain EPS growth if volume/mix improves.

Confirming evidence
