Revenue by Segment
Forward Guidance
Campbell raises fiscal 2020 guidance as a result of our performance in the third quarter, which was significantly impacted by the increase in demand of our products amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, and our current outlook for continued demand for our products.
Positive Outlook
- Net Sales +5.5 to +6.5%
- Adjusted EBIT +12 to +14%
- Adjusted EPS $2.87 to $2.92
- Benefit of the 53rd week, consistent with the prior fiscal 2020 guidance, is estimated to be worth two points of net sales, adjusted EBIT and adjusted EPS.
- The outlook for organic net sales excludes the negative impact from the sale of the European chips business along with the estimated contribution of the 53rd week.
Challenges Ahead
- The effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on our sales, adjusted EBIT and adjusted EPS cannot be predicted with certainty
- Fiscal 2020 comprises 53 weeks, one additional week compared to fiscal 2019.
- Although the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on our sales, adjusted EBIT and adjusted EPS cannot be predicted with certainty, this revised outlook reflects our current expectation of trends through the balance of the fiscal year.
