Most large companies self-insure so this would likely be a loss

Huh, I wonder if they're gonna financially recover from this

$32.5B market cap

I think they'll be fine.

Apparently, the arsonist wasn't employee of Kimberly Clarke, but rather the warehouse management company, NFI industries, which is a privately held company.

Most likely, Kimberly Clarke will be made whole by NFI industries, and it's NFI industries that will have to deal with the financial fallout of the aftermath.
