CEO Comments
Denise Morrison, Campbell’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said,
“While organic sales declined 1 percent in the quarter, the team
performed well in a difficult environment, gaining market share in many
of our categories and continuing to execute our cost savings program.
“This was a challenging quarter across the food industry as top-line
growth remained scarce, especially in center store categories. The
industry, including Campbell, experienced significant consumption
declines early in the calendar year. These industry trends coincided
with weak consumer spending, which was at its lowest growth rate since
2009. While we rebounded with sales growth in March and April, we were
unable to offset the earlier declines.
“In this context, Campbell delivered competitive performance. A bright
spot in the quarter was our Global Biscuits and Snacks division, which
delivered top-line and double-digit bottom-line growth. Looking ahead as
we finish the fiscal year, we expect Global Biscuits and Snacks to
maintain its positive momentum, and we will also be cycling the C-Fresh
protein drink recall from last year.
“We are adjusting our fiscal 2017 guidance, reflecting our performance
in the quarter, the difficult operating environment and our outlook for
the remainder of the year. We lowered our sales outlook by one
percentage point to a range of -1 to 0 percent. We raised our
expectations for adjusted EBIT and adjusted EPS, increasing the low end
of both ranges to 2 to 4 percent and 3 to 5 percent, respectively.
Despite the challenges on the top line, we expect that we will be able
to offset the impact of lower sales with our ongoing cost-savings
efforts, which are ahead of our expectations for the fiscal year.”
Items Impacting Comparability
The company reported earnings of $0.58 per share in the quarter. The
current-quarter results reflect pre-tax charges related to cost savings
initiatives of $7 million, or $0.01 per share. The prior-year quarter
included a pre-tax charge related to a pension benefit mark-to-market
adjustment of $54 million, or $0.11 per share, and pre-tax charges
related to cost savings initiatives of $15 million, or $0.03 per share.
The prior-year quarter also included a gain from the settlement of a
claim related to the Kelsen acquisition of $25 million, or $0.08 per
share. Excluding items impacting comparability in both periods, adjusted
EPS decreased 9 percent to $0.59 per share, compared with $0.65 per
share in the year-ago quarter. A detailed reconciliation of the reported
(GAAP) financial information to the adjusted information is included at
the end of this news release.
Third-Quarter Results
Sales decreased 1 percent to $1.853 billion driven by a 1 percent
decline in organic sales, reflecting higher promotional spending, while
volumes were comparable to the prior year. Organic sales declines in
Americas Simple Meals and Beverages and Campbell Fresh were partly
offset by gains in Global Biscuits and Snacks.
Gross margin increased from 35.3 percent to 36.6 percent. Excluding
items impacting comparability in the prior year, adjusted gross margin
decreased 0.4 percentage points from 37.0 percent to 36.6 percent. The
decrease in adjusted gross margin was primarily driven by higher supply
chain costs and inflation, including the unfavorable impact of lapping
gains on open commodity contracts in the prior-year quarter, as well as
higher promotional spending, partly offset by productivity improvements
and the benefits from cost savings initiatives.
Marketing and selling expenses decreased 8 percent to $209 million.
Excluding items impacting comparability in the prior year, adjusted
marketing and selling expenses decreased 5 percent primarily due to
lower advertising and consumer promotion expenses and the benefits from
cost savings initiatives. Administrative expenses decreased 9 percent to
$140 million. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted
administrative expenses increased 1 percent.
EBIT increased 11 percent to $298 million. Excluding items impacting
comparability, adjusted EBIT decreased 2 percent to $305 million
reflecting a lower adjusted gross margin percentage and lower sales,
partly offset by lower marketing and selling expenses.
Net interest expense was comparable to prior year at $28 million
reflecting lower levels of debt offset by higher average interest rates
on the debt portfolio. The tax rate increased to 34.8 percent as
compared with a tax rate of 22.9 percent in the prior year. Excluding
items impacting comparability, the adjusted tax rate increased 6.5
percentage points to 35.0 percent driven by lower taxes on foreign
earnings in the prior year. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, a $13
million correction on deferred tax expense was recognized, most of which
related to the third quarter of fiscal 2016.
Nine-Month Results
Sales decreased 1 percent to $6.226 billion driven by a 1 percent
decline in organic sales, reflecting higher promotional spending and
lower volume.
EBIT decreased 4 percent to $960 million. Excluding items impacting
comparability, adjusted EBIT was comparable to the prior year at $1.210
billion reflecting a higher adjusted gross margin percentage offset by
lower sales volume and higher marketing and selling expenses.
Net interest expense increased 1 percent to $84 million reflecting
higher average interest rates on the debt portfolio, partly offset by
lower levels of debt. The tax rate increased 5.5 percentage points to
35.0 percent. Excluding items impacting comparability, the adjusted tax
rate decreased 0.5 percentage points to 31.3 percent.
Cash flow from operations was $1.011 billion compared to $1.211 billion
in the prior year, which benefited from significant reductions in
working capital.
Fiscal 2017 Guidance
Campbell has revised its fiscal 2017 guidance. Campbell now expects
sales to change by -1 to 0 percent (previously 0 to 1 percent); adjusted
EBIT to increase by 2 to 4 percent (previously 1 to 4 percent), and
adjusted EPS to increase by 3 to 5 percent (previously 2 to 5 percent),
or $3.04 to $3.09 per share. This guidance assumes the impact from
currency translation will be nominal. A non-GAAP reconciliation is not
provided for 2017 guidance since certain items are not estimable, such
as pension and postretirement mark-to-market adjustments, and these
items are not considered to be part of the company's ongoing business
results.

|
|
Americas Simple Meals and Beverages
Sales in the quarter decreased 2 percent to $982 million driven by
declines in soup and V8 beverages, partly offset by gains in Prego
pasta sauces. Sales of U.S. soup decreased 4 percent driven by declines
in condensed soups and broth, partly offset by gains in ready-to-serve
soups. For the first nine months of fiscal 2017, sales of U.S. soup
decreased 1 percent.
Segment operating earnings for the quarter were comparable to prior year
at $226 million, as a higher gross margin percentage was offset by lower
sales volume.
Global Biscuits and Snacks
Sales in the quarter increased 2 percent to $623 million driven by gains
in Pepperidge Farm, as well as gains in Arnott’s biscuits in both
Australia and Indonesia. Pepperidge Farm sales increased due to gains in Goldfish
crackers and Pepperidge Farm cookies, partly offset by
declines in fresh bakery and frozen products.
Segment operating earnings increased 14 percent to $98 million. The
increase was primarily driven by higher sales volume and lower
advertising and consumer promotion expenses.
Campbell Fresh
Sales in the quarter decreased 6 percent to $248 million driven by lower
sales of Bolthouse Farms refrigerated beverages.
Segment operating earnings decreased from $13 million to $1 million
driven by unfavorable sales volume and mix, as well as the cost impact
of both reduced beverage capacity and enhanced quality processes.
Unallocated Corporate Expenses
Unallocated corporate expenses for the quarter were $27 million compared
to $54 million in the prior year. The current quarter included $7
million of charges associated with cost savings initiatives. The
prior-year quarter included $54 million of charges related to a pension
benefit mark-to-market adjustment and $13 million of charges associated
with cost savings initiatives. The prior-year quarter also included a
$25 million gain from the settlement of a claim related to the Kelsen
acquisition. The remaining increase in expenses reflects the unfavorable
impact of lapping gains on open commodity contracts in the prior-year
quarter, partly offset by lower postretirement benefit costs.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures
|
Third Quarter Ended April 30, 2017
|
|
Campbell Soup 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.
|
|
Organic Net Sales
|
|
Organic net sales are net sales excluding the impact of currency.
Management believes that excluding this item, which is 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.

Items Impacting Gross Margin, Costs and
Expenses, and Earnings
|
|
The company believes that financial information excluding certain
items that are not considered to be part of the ongoing business,
such as those listed below, improves the comparability of
year-to-year results. Consequently, the company believes that
investors may be able to better understand its results excluding
these items.
|
|
The following items impacted gross margin, costs and expenses, and
earnings:
|
|

In the second quarter of fiscal 2017, the company performed an
interim impairment assessment on the intangible assets of the
Bolthouse Farms carrot and carrot ingredients reporting unit and the

well below expectations and a new leadership team of the Campbell
Fresh division initiated a strategic review which led to a revised

after tax, or $.45 per share) related to intangible assets of the
