Treehouse Foods (NYSE:THS) Stock, Rapport sur les intérêts à découvert

Treehouse Foods

TreeHouse Foods is the largest pure-play private-label manufacturer in the US. Much larger in the past following the 2016 acquisition of Ralcorp, Conagra's former private-label business, the company has since divested several businesses to focus on high-growth categories. At present, the company produces and sells snacks (crackers, pretzels, cookies, and so on), beverages and drink mixes (such as nondairy creamer, coffee, tea), and a select number of grocery products (pickles, refrigerated dough, hot cereal, cheese, and pudding). Its most important sales channel is through retail grocery stores that sell its products under their own brands, with co-manufacturing and food away from home as much smaller channels of distribution for its fare.

Treehouse Foods, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/THS#NYSE">THS</a>) shares are trading higher on Friday.
The company reported fourth-quarter adjusted earnings per share of 95 cents, missing the street view of 97 cents. Quarterly revenues of $905.70 million (down 0.6% year over year), missed the analyst consensus estimate of 907.716 million.
&#8220;We closed a challenging 2024 with sequentially improved net sales trends, gross profit margin, and Adjusted EBITDA margin, all of which were in-line with our updated expectations,&#8221; said Steve Oakland, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and President.
&#8220;Despite a slower macro environment and two significant supply chain issues, our teams made steady progress executing on our supply chain initiatives amidst a difficult consumer backdrop across food and beverage categories.&#8221;
The change in net sales was nearly flat as volume/mix was positively impacted by strong performance in multiple categories including pretzels, in-store bakery, and cookies.

The quarterly gross margin expanded to 19.5% compared to 16.7% in the year-ago period, an increase of&nbsp;2.8 percentage points.&nbsp;
The increase is primarily due to the execution of supply chain savings initiatives, a&nbsp;$10&nbsp;million insurance recovery related to the broth recall, and lower commodity costs.
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations was&nbsp;$118.3&nbsp;million&nbsp;in the fourth quarter, compared to&nbsp;$108.4 million&nbsp;a year ago. The increase is primarily due to supply chain&nbsp;savings initiatives.
The company exited the quarter with cash and equivalents worth $289.6 million. Inventories as of quarter end totaled $539.3 million.
Long-term debt as of quarter-end expanded to $1.401 billion, compared with $1.396 billion a year ago.

("Harris Tea"), a leading private brand tea manufacturer in the U.S., for approximately $205 million, subject to customary purchase price adjustments.
The acquisition includes Harris Tea's manufacturing facilities in Moorestown, NJ and Marietta, GA, and TreeHouse Foods will welcome approximately 300 Harris Tea team members.

TreeHouse Foods Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/THS#NYSE">THS</a>) shares plummeted after the company reported a third-quarter sales decline of 2.8% year-over-year to $839.1 million, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/n41896271/treehouse-foods-inc-reports-third-quarter-2024-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">missing the consensus of $881.14 million.</a>
Adjusted net sales for the quarter stood at $854.4 million, excluding the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/41404275" rel="noreferrer noopener">voluntary griddle product recall</a>. A voluntary recall of frozen griddle products, distribution disruptions from Hurricane Helene, and selective price adjustments in key categories drove a decline in net sales.
The quarter&#8217;s gross margin contracted 30 basis points year over year to 15.6%. The operating margin was 3.8%, down 10 bps year over year.
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations was $102.5 million (+14% YoY), and the margin was 12.2%.
Total operating expenses for the quarter were $99.4 million, down $4.5 million YoY, driven by reduced freight costs, lower expenses for growth initiatives, and decreased employee incentive compensation.
Adjusted EPS was $0.74, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">missing the analyst consensus of $0.75.</a>
Net cash used in operating activities reached $30.4 million in the first nine months of 2024, compared to $11.0 million in operating cash flow in 2023. As of September end, the company held $102 million in cash and equivalents.
&#8220;Our third quarter results were mixed, as a tough operating environment with softer consumer takeaway led to sales below our expectations. However, I was pleased with our supply chain savings, which led to margin improvement and profit that was within our guidance range,&#8221; stated Steve Oakland, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and President.
&#8220;As we look forward, we continue to expect sequential improvement in organic volume growth, though the challenging consumer backdrop and the impact of the recall have led us to temper our expectations. I continue to be confident in our competitive positioning moving forward and believe our strategy, which includes initiatives in our supply chain and margin management opportunities, can drive meaningful profit improvement,&#8221; added Oakland.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Q4 Outlook: TreeHouse anticipates net sales of $900 million—$930 million versus the consensus of $966.72 million. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is expected to be $116 million—$126 million.
2024 Outlook updated: TreeHouse now expects adjusted&nbsp;sales of $3.37 billion—$3.40 billion against an estimate of $3.46 billion. This&nbsp;represents approximately&nbsp;-2%&nbsp;to&nbsp;-1%&nbsp;year-over-year and reflects weakening consumption trends and the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">estimated impact of the voluntary griddle recall.</a>
The company now expects FY24 adjusted EBITDA of $335 million—$345 million (prior $360 million—$380 million) and capital expenditures of $145 million.
THS now expects a free cash flow of at least $120 million (prior $130 million) in 2024.
Price Action: THS shares are trading lower by 16% at $31.25 at the last check Tuesday.
