CAMDEN, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Campbell's Company (NASDAQ:CPB) today reported results for its second quarter fiscal 2026 ended February 1, 2026. Unless otherwise stated, all comparisons are to the same period of fiscal 2025.

CEO Comments:
"Our core Meals & Beverages portfolio delivered in-market consumption growth in the second quarter, highlighted by the Rao’s brand surpassing $1 billion in trailing twelve-month net sales. Overall results, however, fell short of our expectations due to weaker-than-expected performance in Snacks and storm-related shipment disruptions,” said Mick Beekhuizen, Campbell’s Chief Executive Officer. “To stabilize Snacks, we are taking decisive action, focused on sharpening our value, new product innovation and in-market execution. We are also accelerating cost saving initiatives to mitigate cost headwinds and support continued investment in our brands. Given our first half results and the current operating environment, we are lowering our full-year outlook to reflect a more cautious view for the balance of the year. At the same time, our brand portfolio fundamentals remain sound, and we continue to be confident in our ability to create sustainable profitable growth over the long-term.”

Second Quarter Results
Net sales in the quarter decreased 5% to $2.6 billion. Organic net sales, which exclude the impact from divestitures, decreased 3% to $2.6 billion primarily driven by lower volume/mix, with neutral net price realization.

Gross profit decreased to $717 million from $819 million. Gross profit margin was 28.0% compared to 30.5%. Adjusted gross profit decreased to $710 million from $815 million. Adjusted gross profit margin decreased 270 basis points to 27.7% mainly driven by cost inflation and other supply chain costs, the gross impact of tariffs and unfavorable volume/mix, partially offset by cost savings and supply chain productivity improvements and favorable net price realization.

Marketing and selling expenses, which represented approximately 10% of net sales, decreased 2% to $252 million. Adjusted marketing and selling expenses decreased 3% to $248 million primarily driven by lower selling expenses and the benefit from cost savings initiatives.

Administrative expenses decreased 3% to $160 million. Adjusted administrative expenses decreased 3% to $152 million mainly driven by the benefit from cost savings initiatives, partially offset by higher benefit-related costs and inflation.

Other expenses were $7 million compared to $41 million. Adjusted other expenses were $7 million compared to $8 million.

EBIT decreased to $273 million from $327 million. Adjusted EBIT decreased 24% to $282 million primarily due to lower adjusted gross profit, partially offset by lower adjusted marketing and selling expenses and lower adjusted administrative expenses.

Net interest expense of $80 million is consistent with prior year as lower levels of debt were offset by lower interest income in the quarter. The effective tax rate decreased to 24.9% compared to 30.0% and the adjusted effective tax rate was 24.8% compared to 24.0%. Excluding items impacting comparability, the adjusted effective tax rate increased 80 basis points primarily due to lower tax expense associated with stock-based compensation awards in the prior year.

EPS decreased to $0.48 per share from $0.58 per share. Adjusted EPS decreased 31% to $0.51 per share primarily reflecting lower adjusted EBIT.

Cash Flow and Shareholder Return
Cash flow from operations for the six months ended February 1, 2026 was $740 million, compared to $737 million in the prior-year. Capital expenditures year-to-date were $227 million compared to $211 million. In line with Campbell’s commitment to return value to its shareholders, the company has paid $237 million of cash dividends and repurchased common stock of approximately $26 million year-to-date. As of February 1, 2026, the company had approximately $172 million remaining under its September 2024 anti-dilutive share repurchase program in addition to approximately $301 million remaining under its September 2021 strategic share repurchase program.

Cost Savings Program
In the second quarter, Campbell's delivered approximately $20 million in savings, bringing total cost savings achieved to $180 million pursuant to its fiscal 2028 target of $375 million. The company intends to use these savings as one of several levers to help offset tariff headwinds.

Full-Year Fiscal 2026 Guidance:
Largely driven by the near-term outlook for our Snacks business and select incremental trade investments, Campbell's is lowering its full-year fiscal 2026 guidance provided on December 9, 2025 to reflect a more cautious view for the balance of the year. Fiscal 2026 guidance ranges are based on the exclusion of the additional week in fiscal 2025, which represented approximately 2% to net sales, 2% to adjusted EBIT and $0.06 to adjusted EPS.

Additional underlying guidance assumptions can be found in the accompanying investor presentation available at https://investor.thecampbellscompany.com/events-presentations.

The company's full-year fiscal 2026 guidance is set forth in the table below:

($ in millions, except per share)	FY25 Results* (52 weeks)	Prior FY26 Guidance	Updated FY26 Guidance
Organic Net Sales^1	$9,979	(1)% to +1%	(2)% to (1)%
Adjusted EBIT	$1,458	(13)% to (9)%	(20)% to (17)%
Adjusted EPS	$2.91	(18)% to (12)%	(26)% to (23)%
		$2.40 to $2.55	$2.15 to $2.25

^1Adjusted for the impact of the 53rd week in fiscal 2025, the noosa business which was divested on February 24, 2025, and the Pop Secret business which was divested on August 26, 2024.

* Adjusted - refer to the detailed reconciliation of the reported (GAAP) financial information to the adjusted financial information at the end of this news release.

Note: A non-GAAP reconciliation is not provided for fiscal 2026 guidance as the company is unable to reasonably estimate the full-year financial impact of items such as actuarial gains or losses on pension and postretirement plans because these impacts are dependent on future changes in market conditions. The inability to predict the amount and timing of these future items makes a detailed reconciliation of these forward-looking financial measures impracticable.

^1 Reflects the loss of net sales associated with the divestiture of the noosa yoghurt business, which was completed on February 24, 2025.
Note: A detailed reconciliation of the reported (GAAP) net sales to organic net sales is included at the end of this news release.

Meals & Beverages
Net sales decreased 4%. Excluding the impact of the noosa divestiture, organic net sales decreased 2% mainly driven by declines in U.S. soup, Prego pasta sauces, foodservice and V8 beverages, partially offset by gains in Rao's. Unfavorable volume/mix of 2% was partially offset by favorable net price realization of 1%. Sales were impacted by an approximate 1% headwind as a result of January storm-related shipment delays. Sales of U.S. soup decreased 4% with pressure concentrated in condensed soups, ready-to-serve soups and broth.

Operating earnings decreased 15% primarily due to lower gross profit and the impact of the noosa divestiture, partially offset by lower marketing and selling expenses. Gross profit margin decreased mainly due to the gross impact of tariffs, cost inflation and other supply chain costs and unfavorable volume/mix, partially offset by cost savings and supply chain productivity improvements and favorable net price realization.

Snacks
Net sales, both reported and organic, decreased 6% primarily driven by declines in chips and pretzels, supply constraints related to fresh bakery and third-party partner brands and contract manufacturing. Sales were impacted by unfavorable volume/mix of 6%, with neutral net price realization.

Operating earnings decreased 39% primarily due to lower gross profit. Gross profit margin decreased mainly due to cost inflation and other supply chain costs, the gross impact of tariffs and unfavorable volume/mix, partially offset by cost savings and supply chain productivity improvements.

Corporate
Corporate expense was $43 million in the quarter compared to $73 million in the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to non-cash impairment charges in the prior year.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Second Quarter Ended February 1, 2026

The Campbell's Company (the "company") uses certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission in certain communications. These non-GAAP financial measures are measures of performance not defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should be considered in addition to, not in lieu of, GAAP reported measures. Management believes that also presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures provides additional information to facilitate comparison of the company's historical operating results and trends in its underlying operating results, and provides transparency on how the company evaluates its business. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the company's performance. Management considers quantitative and qualitative factors in assessing whether to adjust for the impact of items that may be significant or that could affect an understanding of the company’s performance and trends in its underlying operating results. The adjustments on earnings may include but are not limited to items such as: unusual or non-recurring gains or charges; costs associated with cost savings and optimization initiatives; actuarial gains or losses on pension and postretirement plans; unrealized mark-to-market gains or losses on outstanding undesignated commodity hedges; gains or losses on the extinguishment of debt; gains or losses on divestitures; costs associated with acquisitions; impairment charges or accelerated amortization; certain litigation expenses or recoveries; and costs or recoveries related to a cybersecurity incident. Depending upon facts or circumstances, management may change these adjustments. When these adjustments change, the company will provide updated definitions of its non-GAAP financial measures. When items no longer impact the company’s current or future presentation of non-GAAP operating results, the company will remove these items from its non-GAAP definitions.

Organic Net Sales

Organic net sales are net sales excluding the impact of currency, acquisitions, divestitures and the additional week in fiscal 2025. Management believes that excluding these items, which are not part of the ongoing business, improves the comparability of year-to-year results. A reconciliation of net sales as reported to organic net sales follows.
