Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Treehouse Foods stock:

• 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Shares of TreeHouse Foods have underperformed the broader industry in the last one year. Changing consumer buying patterns and currency headwinds pose serious threats to the company. Also, investments in sales force, acquisition and higher incentive compensation have led to increasing operating costs of the company. Management also issued a soft guidance for the second quarter, which is below expectations. In fact, the quarter will be the lowest one in 2017, with respect to earnings. Evidently, the estimate for 2017 has declined by 2 cents in the last seven days. Though management remains on track with the progress of the Private Brands’ integration and revised organizational structure, a soft retail landscape is likely to hurt its results. The company has been proactive toward consumers' interests in natural and fresh foods, and is therefore, focusing on organic food production." (7/27/2017)
• 2. Jefferies Group LLC analysts commented, "THS reported 1Q adj EPS of $0.61, which was 6c (9%) below our estimate, 4c (6%) below consensus & at the low end of mgmt’s $0.60-$0.70 1Q guidance range. Legacy business margins (beverage) seem to have taken a meaningful step down while acquired business margin expansion seems to be gaining momentum (Meals and Snacks). The latter is core to our thesis and is encouraging. 2017 guidance maintained but significantly 2H-weighted." (5/5/2017)
