General Mills (GIS) Q1 Earnings Coming Up: Things to Note
Read MoreHide Full Article
General Mills, Inc. (GIS - Free Report) is likely to register a top-line decline when it reports first-quarter fiscal 2023 earnings on Sep 21, 2022. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for quarterly revenues is pegged at $4,091 million, suggesting a decrease of 9.9% from the figure reported in the prior-year quarter.
Nevertheless, General Mills’ bottom line is likely to grow year over year. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for quarterly earnings has moved up by a couple of cents in the last seven days to $1.00 per share. The projection indicates a growth of 1% from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure.
We expect fiscal first-quarter net revenues to be up 0.3% year over year to $4,553.6 million and the bottom line to improve almost 1% to $1.00 a share.
The manufacturer and marketer of branded consumer food products has a trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of 6.5%, on average. In the last reported quarter, General Mills delivered an earnings surprise of 10.9%.
General Mills is grappling with escalated input cost inflation, which has been marring its performance for a while. The rise in the cost of goods sold, mainly due to ingredients, logistics and packaging materials, is a headwind. In addition, the company is battling supply-chain related headwinds. General Mills’ international presence exposes it to risks of unfavorable currency rates. We believe that the persistence of these factors might be a concern for the quarter to be reported.
On its last earnings call, management stated that it had undertaken several portfolio-reshaping actions over the past year, which is anticipated to boost the top and bottom lines in the long run. However, the net effect of these actions is likely to affect the profits in the near term.
That being said, General Mills has been benefiting from its Accelerate strategy, which aids the company in making the choices of how to win and where to play to boost profitability and enhancing shareholder returns. Under how to win, GIS is focused on four pillars namely brand building, undertaking innovations, unleashing scale and maintaining business strength. The ‘where to play’ principle is outlined to enhance its capabilities to generate profitability through geographic as well as product prioritization along with portfolio restructuring.
Strength in the Pet segment has been a driver. The higher pet population and more humanization and premiumization of pet food since the pandemic have been acting as tailwinds for the company’s pet food category.
