B&G Foods' (BGS) to Report Q1 Earnings: What's in the Offing?
Read MoreHide Full Article
B&G Foods, Inc. (BGS - Free Report) is likely to witness growth in the top line when it reports first-quarter 2022 earnings on May 5. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $511.4 million, suggesting an increase of 1.2% from the prior-year quarter’s reported figure.
B&G Foods’ bottom line is likely to decline year over year. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for quarterly earnings has moved down by a couple of cents in the past 30 days to 42 cents per share. The projection suggests a decline of 19.2% from the figure reported in the prior-year period. The company, which manufactures, sells and distributes a portfolio of shelf-stable and frozen foods and household products, has a trailing four-quarter negative earnings surprise of 6.8%, on average. BGS posted a negative earnings surprise of 7.1% in the last reported quarter.
B&G Foods is witnessing higher demand for its products as consumers cook and bake at home. The company is focused on solidifying its brand portfolio through acquisitions of complementary branded businesses, developing new products and utilizing its multiple channel sales and distribution system. Prudent buyouts like Crisco (concluded in December 2020), Farmwise (February 2020) and Clabber Girl (acquired in May 2019) bode well for BGS. The persistence of these factors is likely to have been an upside for the company’s first-quarter 2022 performance.
B&G Foods has been battling cost inflation for a while. This includes escalated raw materials, packaging and transportation expenses. Industry-wide input cost inflation along with supply-chain disruptions are a threat to the company’s performance in the to-be-reported quarter. In addition, B&G Foods’ international presence exposes it to unfavorable foreign currency translation.
