Billionaire investor Carl Icahn said Tuesday he would backstop any auction of Clorox Co.

Clorox Co.'s third-quarter net income fell more than 8 percent as it wrestled with higher costs and a fall-off in some of its well-known brands.

In an interview with BSR Senior Vice President Eric Olson, Clorox CEO Don Knauss described the sustainability journey of a company better known for its bleach than its green cleaning products.

Consumers' desire for greener products led the company to launch a new green cleaning brand, acquire Burt's Bees, and reposition the Brita brand to include a sustainability focus.

The Clorox Co. says profit rose 23 percent in its fiscal first quarter, as consumers worried about the flu bought more of its disinfecting products.
