What are Wall Street analysts saying about Conagra Brands stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Conagra Brands stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Conagra has outperformed the industry in the past six months. The company is gaining from the buyout of Pinnacle Foods, which boosted the top line during fourth-quarter fiscal 2019. The company is on track with the integration of the buyout. Further, it is striving to boost capabilities across the frozen and snacking businesses. Management is also progressing well with the value-over-volume strategy and plans to implement the same in the Pinnacle Foods portfolio. On the flip side, adverse impacts of divestitures were major deterrents during the fourth quarter, wherein the top and the bottom line missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate. The company is struggling against dismal performance in the Foodservice unit. These along with adverse currency and rising input cost woes have been limiting the company’s growth." (7/8/2019)
- 2. Jefferies Financial Group Inc analysts commented, "Large-cap food stocks, incl. CAG, have underperformed recently on fears that weak industry sales growth & margin compression will lead to negative earnings revisions. However, we maintain that most of the issues impacting margins are transitory & that sales growth trends will improve as per our BSM thesis. We believe CAG’s 2Q base business sales growth & guidance will likely come in better than expected, potentially boosting NT sentiment on the stock. 2Q earnings preview – what to expect. CAG is scheduled to report 2Q19 results on 12/20 before the market open. We now expect 2Q EPS of $0.55 compared to $0.61 before. The $0.06 reduction in our estimate is entirely a function of the dilution from the PF deal, which closed 1 month earlier than our expectations. Management had guided to EPS of $0.57-$0.60 excluding the deal." (12/19/2018)
