CapyFin.com Forward Guidance
The Company updated its full-year fiscal 2023 guidance with net sales expected to increase 5.5% - 6.5% and adjusted earnings per share between $8.35 - $8.75. Free cash flow is expected to be approximately $550 million with capital expenditures of $550 million.
Positive Outlook
- Net sales are expected to increase 5.5 to 6.5 percent compared to the prior year.
- Excluding noncomparable net sales in the prior year for the divested private label dry pet food and natural beverage and grains businesses, net sales are expected to increase approximately 8.0 percent at the mid-point of the guidance range.
- This reflects higher net pricing to recover cost inflation across multiple categories.
- Adjusted earnings per share is expected to range from $8.35 to $8.75, including an estimated $0.80 unfavorable impact related to the Jif® peanut butter product recall.
- This range reflects the benefits of higher net pricing actions and shares repurchased in the prior fiscal year being more than offset by cost inflation, the anticipated volume/mix impact of price elasticity of demand, the unfavorable impact of the Jif® peanut butter product recall, and increased SD&A expenses.
Challenges Ahead
- Ongoing cost inflation, volatility in supply chains and the overall macroeconomic environment continue to impact financial results and cause uncertainty and risk for the fiscal year 2023 outlook.
- Any manufacturing or supply chain disruption, as well as changes in consumer purchasing behavior, including the potential impact to volume due to recent price increases, retailer inventory levels, and broader macroeconomic conditions, could materially impact actual results.
- In particular, the Jif® peanut butter product recall will impact our financial results for the fiscal year.
- This guidance assumes an adjusted gross profit margin of 33.5 percent, an adjusted effective income tax rate of 24.1 percent, and 106.9 million common shares outstanding.
- Free cash flow is expected to be approximately $550 million, inclusive of the estimated unfavorable impact related to the Jif® peanut butter product recall, with capital expenditures of $550 million.
