J.M. Smucker's EPS Outlook Offset by Weaker Sales Guidance, UBS Says

J.M. Smucker (SJM) may see a mixed investor reaction to its fiscal 2027 outlook, with UBS Securities saying stronger earnings guidance was offset by weaker-than-expected net sales guidance.The company projected fiscal 2027 adjusted EPS of $9.75 to $10.25, above consensus expectations, while forecasting a 3% to 4% decline in net sales, below both UBS estimates and Street forecasts, the brokerage said.UBS said in a note Tuesday that investors are likely to focus on how much conservatism is embedded in the company's net sales outlook, particularly as management expects a stronger first-quarter start with flat sales and mid-teens adjusted EPS growth.The investment firm said the quarter itself was solid, with stronger organic sales and lower SG&A offsetting slightly weaker gross margins, while noting that questions around the company's top-line outlook could drive a mixed near-term reaction.UBS has a buy rating and a $121 price target on the stock.Shares of J.M. Smucker were up 3.8% in Wednesday afternoon trading.Price: $116.68, Change: $+4.29, Percent Change: +3.82%

J.M. Smucker's Cost Inflation Outlook 'Relatively Benign' Despite Iran War Headwinds, Morgan Stanley Says

J.M. Smucker's Cost Inflation Outlook 'Relatively Benign' Despite Iran War Headwinds, Morgan Stanley Says

J.M. Smucker's (SJM) cost inflation outlook was "relatively benign" despite headwinds from the ongoing Middle East conflict, with the food producer confident of managing the pressure, Morgan Stanley said in note e-mailed Wednesday.On Tuesday, J.M. Smucker Chief Financial Officer Tucker Marshall said the Jif peanut butter maker expected cost inflation of low-single-digits for the year, excluding green coffee and tariffs.Morgan Stanley said it was "somewhat surprised by the relatively benign" cost outlook following the US-Israel war with Iran, compared with Campbell's (CPB) projection for a mid-single-digit percentage increase.The Iran war started at the end of February, disrupting energy shipments through the crucial Strait of Hormuz and leading to broad-based inflation concerns."While (the cost inflation outlook) could ultimately end up higher depending on the duration of the conflict, (J.M. Smucker's) management sounded confident in its ability to manage through the pressure," Morgan Stanley said in a note to clients. "We do not view it as a major issue given flexibility/conservatism elsewhere in the guide."The brokerage raised its price target on the J.M. Smucker stock to $110 from $106 while maintaining its equal-weight rating.The company's shares were up 3.4% in Wednesday afternoon trade, bringing its year-to-date gains to 19%."(J.M. Smucker) also framed the outlook as prudent several times, which appears particularly true on the topline, with (2027) sales guided down 3% to 4%, including (first-quarter roughly) flat, implying a steep deceleration post-(first quarter) as lower coffee prices flow through with very limited volume elasticity assumed," Morgan Stanley said.J.M. Smucker's margin visibility seems solid, mainly driven by the coffee segment, which is expected to benefit from the mechanical lap of tariffs and lower green coffee costs, despite headwinds related to lower prices and volume reduction, the brokerage said. Potential tariff refunds could also be another source of possible upside for the Folgers and Cafe Bustelo coffee brands owner, according to the note.Morgan Stanley raised its fiscal 2027 earnings estimate for J.M. Smucker to reflect its robust fourth-quarter results and lower-than-expected cost pressure.Price: $116.02, Change: $+3.63, Percent Change: +3.23%

J.M. Smucker to Benefit From Green Coffee Price Deflation, RBC Says

J.M. Smucker's (SJM) profitability will benefit from deflation in green coffee prices, RBC Capital Markets said in a Wednesday note.With positive early indications for this year's coffee crop, the company has begun reducing prices through increased trade investments and is set to cut the list price in the sustained deflationary environment, RBC analysts said.

J.M. Smucker Posts 'Solid' Q4 Results, Better Than Feared EPS Outlook, Morgan Stanley Says

J.M. Smucker (SJM) delivered "solid" fiscal Q4 organic sales growth and earnings, while issuing a fiscal 2027 earnings per share outlook that exceeded expectations, Morgan Stanley said in a note Wednesday.Smucker's guidance implies about 9% EPS growth at the midpoint for fiscal 2027, with Morgan Stanley noting the company's cost outlook was more favorable than expected following the Iran conflict.The investment bank noted that revenue guidance appears "conservative," with fiscal 2027 sales expected to decline 3% to 4%, while margins are expected to benefit from "lower green coffee costs" and easing tariff impacts, the report said, adding that potential "tariff refunds" could provide additional upside.Following the results, Morgan Stanley raised the company's fiscal 2027 EPS estimates by 3.2%. It raised the price target to $110 from $106, while maintaining an equal weight rating, citing a "balanced" risk-reward profile after the stock's recent gain.Shares of J.M. Smucker were up more than 3% in Wednesday trading.Price: $115.84, Change: $+3.45, Percent Change: +3.07%

J.M. Smucker Stock Likely to Continue Outperforming Peers, BofA Securities Says

J.M. Smucker (SJM) stock is likely to continue outperforming center store food peers with potential upside from Hostess divestiture optionality, BofA Securities said in a Wednesday research report.BofA expects 2026, 2027, and 2028 EPS of $9.15, $10, and $10.70, respectively. Adjusted EPS is expected to grow mid-teens in Q1, accelerate further in Q2, decline to low-single-digit growth in Q3, and likely stay flat in Q4, with coffee remaining the primary driver, analysts wrote.The latest stock momentum could be attributed to the company's $10 EPS guidance at midpoint for fiscal 2027 and conservative Q1 guidance, according to the note.The company has a relatively robust balance sheet and cash generation record, supported by a capital allocation strategy that focuses on sustaining cash flow through reinvestment, modest dividend growth, and deleveraging, BofA stated.The brokerage said it reiterated its buy rating on the stock and boosted its price target to $132 from $130.Price: $116.05, Change: $+3.66, Percent Change: +3.25%

The two countries are nearing a deal "that will not in any way allow nuclear weapons," Trump said, according to the report.Front-month global benchmark North Sea Brent crude was down 1.5% to $92.85 per barrel and US West Texas Intermediate crude 2.1% lower at $89.39 per barrel.The US international trade deficit narrowed to $55.88 billion in April from the downwardly revised $56.59 billion gap in March, compared with a $56.1 billion gap expected in a survey compiled by Bloomberg.The existing home sales report, scheduled for release at 10 am ET, is expected to show an increase of 1.1% for May after a gain of 0.2% in the prior month.In other world markets, Japan's Nikkei closed 2.2% higher, Hong Kong's Hang Seng ended 0.4% lower, and China's Shanghai Composite finished 1.3% higher.

J.M. Smucker Fiscal Fourth-Quarter Results Top Views; Issues Upbeat Full-Year Earnings Outlook

J.M. Smucker (SJM) reported better-than-expected fiscal fourth-quarter results on Tuesday, while the food producer's full-year earnings outlook came in above Wall Street's estimates at the midpoint.The Jif peanut butter maker's adjusted earnings rose to $2.77 a share for the quarter ended April from $2.31 the year before, surpassing the FactSet-polled consensus of $2.64. Sales improved 6% to $2.27 billion, just ahead of the Street's view for $2.26 billion. The stock rose 5.4% in the most recent premarket activity."We delivered positive net sales and earnings growth in the quarter, while navigating a dynamic external environment, and we are entering fiscal year 2027 with meaningful momentum," Chief Executive Mark Smucker said in a statement.For fiscal 2027, the company anticipates adjusted EPS between $9.75 and $10.25. The midpoint of the range is above the Street's estimate of $9.81. In fiscal 2026, adjusted EPS fell 10% to $9.15.Sales are forecast to drop by 3% to 4% from the previous fiscal year's result of $9.05 billion. The average analyst estimate is for sales of $9.09 billion.The annual decline in sales is driven by a decrease in net price realization, reflecting the company's expectations around green coffee deflation as it passes on lower costs to the consumer in the form of reduced prices, as well as lower volume and mix, Smucker said in prepared remarks. "While green coffee deflation is expected to be a headwind to net sales, it is a tailwind to profitability," the CEO added.In the fourth quarter, the Folgers and Cafe Bustelo coffee brands owner's comparable net sales grew 6%, reflecting a 10% boost from higher prices, mainly for coffee and sweet baked goods, that was partially offset by a 4% decline in volume/mix.By segment, revenue climbed 12% to $830.6 million in the US retail coffee business. Retail pet food revenue inclined 2% to $401.7 million, while US retail frozen handheld and spreads ticked up 1%. Sweet baked snacks segment sales slipped 5% to $237.2 million.For the current three-month period, J.M. Smucker expects adjusted EPS to increase by a mid-teen percentage, Chief Financial Officer Tucker Marshall said in the prepared remarks. Sales are forecast to be flat, with unfavorable volume and mix offsetting a low-single-digit increase in prices, according to Marshall. The Street is looking for non-GAAP EPS of $2.18 and sales of $2.17 billion."As the fiscal year progresses and we plan to pass through additional green coffee deflation as our cost structure improves, net pricing will become a headwind to net sales for the total company," Marshall said.
