Campbell Soup Co on Smartkarma

According to independent investment research network Smartkarma, top analysts from Baptista Research have published insightful reports on Campbell Soup Co. In their research, Baptista Research highlights that in the recent fiscal quarter, Campbell Soup faced a 1% decline in organic net sales, amounting to $2.5 billion. However, the company still achieved a commendable 7% growth on a 2-year compound annual growth rate basis. This was driven by a planned low to mid-single-digit decline in the Meals & Beverages division and a 1% growth in organic net sales in the Snacks business.

Furthermore, Baptista Research also discusses the potential game-changing acquisition of Sovos Brands by Campbell Soup Company. They note that the company managed to surpass the revenue expectations of Wall Street in the fourth quarter, with a 5% increase in organic net sales. This was driven by inflation-induced net price realization and strong in-market performance. For the full year, Campbell Soup achieved double-digit organic net sales growth of 10% and solid adjusted EBIT growth of 5%, reflecting increased consumer demand and effective strategic execution.
