Here's How Freshpet (FRPT) Looks Just Ahead of Q3 Earnings
Read MoreHide Full Article
Freshpet, Inc. (FRPT - Free Report) is likely to register an increase in the top and the bottom lines when it reports third-quarter 2023 earnings on Nov 6, before the opening bell. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for quarterly revenues is pegged at $151 million, indicating a rise of about 30.4% from the prior-year quarter’s reported figure.
The consensus estimate for the third quarter is pegged at a loss of 17 cents per share, which is narrower than the year-earlier quarterly loss of 39 cents a share. The consensus mark has been stable over the past 30 days.
This pet food company has a negative earnings surprise of 16.7%, on average.
Factors to Note
Freshpet’s top line during the third quarter is likely to have gained from strong product offerings. To boost portfolio strength, the company has been engaged in well-chalked innovations. It has been striving to expand fresh and natural ingredients-based pet food products. The company is also likely to have gained from improved distribution and retail availability, backed by enhanced production levels.
Additionally, management is optimistic about the company, backed by robust demand, significant capacity, state-of-the-art facility, logistics, quality and commodity cost management. All the aforesaid tailwinds coupled with pricing and distribution gains are likely to have aided results during the quarter under review. However, the company’s performance in the to-be-reported quarter is likely to have been adversely impacted by a tough operating landscape, including inflationary pressures. Any deleverage in the selling, general and administrative expenses is likely to have been a drag. The company has been witnessing higher selling, general and administrative costs for a while now.
