Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
On November 18, 2020, Colgate-Palmolive Company (the "Company") issued a notice
of redemption to The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the "Trustee"), for
(i) all of the Company's outstanding 2.45% Medium-Term Notes due 2021 (CUSIP No.
19416QDY3), originally issued on November 8, 2011 (the "2.45% Notes") and (ii)
all of the outstanding 2.30% Medium-Term Notes due 2022 (CUSIP No. 19416QDZ0),
originally issued on May 3, 2012 (the "2.30% Notes" and, together with the 2.45%
Notes, the "Notes"), at the applicable "make whole" redemption price (the
"Redemption Price") to be calculated as set forth in the indenture, as
supplemented, pursuant to which the Notes were issued, plus accrued and unpaid
interest to, but excluding, the redemption date of December 18, 2020 (the
"Redemption Date"). Payment of the Redemption Price will be made on or after the
Redemption Date only upon presentation and surrender of the Notes to the
Trustee. On the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will become due and
payable on each of the Notes and, unless the Company defaults in the payment of
the Redemption Price, interest on such Notes will cease to accrue on and after
the Redemption Date. The Company will use cash on hand and its commercial paper
program to finance the redemption of the Notes at the Redemption Price.
The applicable notice of redemption will be sent to the registered holders of
the 2.45% Notes and the 2.30% Notes. The foregoing does not constitute a notice
of redemption for either the 2.45% Notes or the 2.30% Notes.
