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

• 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Shares of TreeHouse Foods have outperformed the industry since the past one month. The company has been proactive towards consumer’s interests in natural and fresh foods and thus has been increasingly focusing on organic food production. Moreover, the company has witnessed positive comparable store sales growth trends in food-away-from-home outlets, which mainly focuses on clean ingredients and labels. Nevertheless, changing customer buying patterns along with currency headwinds poses as concerns for the company. Acquisition, investments in sales force and higher incentive compensation have also led to increasing the operating costs of the company. Also, the company issued a soft guidance for the second quarter, which is below expectations. Nevertheless, management remains impressed with the progress of the Private Brands’ integration and revised organizational structure." (7/4/2017)
• 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)
• 3. J P Morgan Chase & Co analysts commented, "Following yesterday’s earnings (see our initial take), we are maintaining our top-of-guidance-range 2016 EPS estimate and staying Overweight. We remain optimistic about the fundamentals of the business, both in the near term and through 2018E, and believe out-year estimates still need to rise. At the same time, we recognize that the integration is only 6 months in and risks remain, including potential changes implemented by a new CFO, upcoming SAP implementations, and the increasingly important fourth quarter holiday season."
