Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about J M Smucker stock:

1. Credit Suisse Group AG analysts commented, "FRANKFURT (dpa-AFX Analyser) – Das Analysehaus Kepler Cheuvreux hat die Einstufung fur Airbus auf Buy" mit einem Kursziel von 77 Euro belassen. Analyst Christophe Menard rechnet in einer am Donnerstag vorliegenden Studie mit schwachen Ergebnissen fur das erste Quartal. Jungste Signale aus dem Konzern boten allerdings etwas Anlass zu Optimismus./ag/zb Veroffentlichung der Original-Studie: 16.04.2020 / Uhrzeit in Studie nicht angegeben / BST Erstmalige Weitergabe der Original-Studie: Datum in Studie nicht angegeben / Uhrzeit in Studie nicht angegeben / Zeitzone in Studie nicht angegeben Hinweis: Informationen zur Offenlegungspflicht bei Interessenkonflikten im Sinne von § 85 Abs. 1 WpHG, Art. 20 VO (EU) 596/2014 fur das genannte Analysten-Haus finden Sie unter http://web.dpa-afx.de/offenlegungspflicht/offenlegungs_pflicht.html." (4/16/2020)
2. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Smucker’s shares have lagged the industry in the past three months. The company has been grappling with lower net price realization as well as impacts of the U.S. baking business divestiture. These factors hurt the company’s results in first-quarter fiscal 2020, wherein earnings and sales declined year over year, and lagged the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Moreover, management lowered its outlook for fiscal 2020. Results were hurt by adverse shipment timings, competition in the premium dog food business, and soft pricing at coffee and peanut butter businesses. Nonetheless, Smucker gained respite from continued contributions from the Ainsworth buyout and strength of its brands. This along with focus on innovation, e-commerce growth and cost-savings bode well for the company. Markedly, SD&A costs are expected to decline in fiscal 2020." (11/15/2019)
