Campbell Soup (CPB) Queued for Q1 Earnings: Things to Note
Read MoreHide Full Article
Campbell Soup Company (CPB - Free Report) is likely to register top-and bottom-line decline when it reports first-quarter fiscal 2022 numbers on Dec 8. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $2,290 million, suggesting a decline of 2.1% from the prior-year quarter’s reported figure.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Campbell Soup’s quarterly earnings has moved down by a penny in the past 30 days to 80 cents per share. The projection suggests a 21.6% slump from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure. The manufacturer and marketer of food and beverage products has a trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of 4.2%, on average. In the last reported quarter, the company delivered an earnings surprise of 17%.
Campbell Soup has been struggling with cost inflation for a while. In its last earnings call, management highlighted that going into fiscal 2022, it expects to keep witnessing pandemic-induced uncertainty across supply chain networks, resulting in greater inflationary pressures as well as a challenging labor market. The persistence of these factors is likely to have hurt Campbell Soup’s performance in the to-be-reported quarter.
Apart from this, Campbell Soup expects the adverse impact from transitional headwinds from the cycling of prior year's escalated sales and scale efficiencies on margins during the first quarter of fiscal 2022. Due to its exposure to the international markets, the company remains vulnerable to currency fluctuations.
Nevertheless, Campbell Soup has been undertaking necessary actions to tide over the inflated cost hurdles, including pricing initiatives. Also, the company is progressing well with its cost-saving plan.
