CFO Comments
Campbell’s Chief Financial Officer Anthony DiSilvestro said, “While our organic sales in the quarter were stable in this difficult environment, our gross margin performance was below our expectations. Based on our third-quarter results and outlook for the balance of the year, we are lowering our fiscal 2018 earnings guidance.
“In the third quarter, we made some progress against our key priorities. We completed the Snyder’s-Lance acquisition, substantially expanding our portfolio in the faster growing snacking categories, and we made some progress in stabilizing sales in U.S. soup. However, we are not satisfied with our financial results. Our performance has been impacted by both execution-related and external challenges. We are addressing these challenges with renewed urgency. Looking ahead, we will be reviewing all aspects of our strategic plans and portfolio composition. We anticipate that our review, which will take several months to complete, will lead to changes designed to improve our operating performance and create long-term shareholder value. We plan to discuss the outcome of this review when we report fourth-quarter and full-year results in late August.”

Third-Quarter Results
Sales increased 15 percent to $2.125 billion driven by a 14-point benefit from the recent acquisitions of Snyder’s-Lance and Pacific Foods and a 1-point favorable impact from currency translation. Organic sales were comparable to the prior year as gains in Global Biscuits and Snacks and Campbell Fresh were offset by declines in Americas Simple Meals and Beverages.
Gross margin decreased from 35.9 percent to 29.1 percent. Excluding items impacting comparability in the current year, adjusted gross margin decreased 3.9 percentage points to 32.0 percent. The decrease in adjusted gross margin was primarily driven by cost inflation and higher supply chain costs, as well as the dilutive impact of recent acquisitions and higher promotional spending, partly offset by productivity improvements and the benefits from cost savings initiatives.
Marketing and selling expenses increased 9 percent to $232 million. Excluding items impacting comparability in the current year, adjusted marketing and selling expenses increased 8 percent primarily due to the impact of recent acquisitions, partly offset by the benefits from cost savings initiatives. Administrative expenses increased 15 percent to $163 million. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted administrative expenses decreased 6 percent primarily due to lower incentive compensation and benefit costs, partly offset by the impact of recent acquisitions.
Other expenses of $647 million were primarily due to the impairment charges related to the Campbell Fresh segment. Excluding items impacting comparability in the current year, adjusted other income decreased $3 million to $12 million.
As reported EBIT was a loss of $475 million. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted EBIT increased 1 percent to $308 million. Excluding the impact of the recent acquisitions of Snyder’s-Lance and Pacific Foods, adjusted EBIT declined primarily due to lower gross margin performance, partly offset by lower adjusted administrative expenses and lower adjusted marketing and selling expenses.
Net interest expense increased $14 million to $42 million. Excluding items impacting comparability in the current year, net adjusted interest expense increased $32 million to $60 million due to debt associated with the acquisition of Snyder’s-Lance and higher average interest rates on the debt portfolio. The tax rate was 24.0 percent as compared to 34.8 percent in the prior year. Excluding items impacting comparability, the adjusted tax rate decreased 19.7 percentage points to 15.3 percent as the timing of tax expense on an adjusted basis was impacted by the impairment charges.
The company reported a loss of $1.31 per share. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted EPS increased 19 percent to $0.70 per share, reflecting a lower adjusted tax rate, partly offset by higher adjusted net interest expense.
Nine-Month Results
Sales increased 4 percent to $6.466 billion driven by a 5-point benefit from the recent acquisitions of Snyder’s-Lance and Pacific Foods and a 1-point favorable impact from currency translation, partly offset by a 1-percent decline in organic sales. Declines in organic sales were primarily driven by decreases in Americas Simple Meals and Beverages, partly offset by gains in Global Biscuits and Snacks.
As reported EBIT was $180 million. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted EBIT decreased 7 percent to $1.127 billion reflecting lower gross margin performance, including the impact of organic sales declines, partly offset by an increase in adjusted other income.
Net interest expense increased $20 million to $104 million. Excluding items impacting comparability in the current year, net adjusted interest expense increased $38 million to $122 million due to debt associated with the acquisition of Snyder’s-Lance and higher average interest rates on the debt portfolio. Tax expense decreased from $307 million in the prior year to a tax benefit of $91 million. Excluding items impacting comparability, the adjusted tax rate decreased 10.0 percentage points to 21.3 percent primarily due to the lower U.S. federal tax rate and the timing of tax expense on an adjusted basis related to the impairment charges.
The company reported EPS of $0.55. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted EPS increased 4 percent to $2.62 per share, reflecting a lower adjusted tax rate and the benefit of lower weighted average shares outstanding, partly offset by lower adjusted EBIT and higher adjusted net interest expense.
Cash flow from operations increased to $1.024 billion from $1.011 billion a year ago reflecting higher cash earnings, partly offset by an increase in working capital requirements.
Fiscal 2018 Guidance
Based on the company’s current outlook for fiscal 2018, including the impact of the Snyder’s-Lance acquisition, Campbell has revised its fiscal 2018 guidance as shown in the table below. This guidance assumes the impact from currency translation will be nominal.

Americas Simple Meals and Beverages
Sales in the quarter increased 5 percent to $1.010 billion reflecting a 6-point benefit from the acquisition of Pacific Foods. Organic sales decreased 2 percent primarily driven by declines in V8 beverages, Plum products and U.S. soup. Excluding the benefit from the acquisition of Pacific Foods, sales of U.S. soup decreased 1 percent driven by declines in condensed soups, partly offset by gains in broth and ready-to-serve soups.
Segment operating earnings decreased 3 percent to $217 million. The decrease was primarily driven by a lower gross margin percentage, partly offset by lower administrative expenses and lower marketing and selling expenses.
Global Biscuits and Snacks
Sales in the quarter increased 35 percent to $862 million. Excluding the benefit from the acquisition of Snyder’s-Lance and the favorable impact of currency translation, organic sales increased 1 percent primarily driven by gains in Pepperidge Farm snacks, reflecting continued growth in Goldfish crackers and Pepperidge Farm cookies.
Segment operating earnings increased 23 percent to $123 million. The increase was primarily driven by the benefit from the acquisition of Snyder’s-Lance.
Campbell Fresh
Sales in the quarter increased 1 percent to $251 million primarily driven by gains in refrigerated soup. Sales of Bolthouse Farms refrigerated beverages were comparable to the prior year.
Segment operating loss was $19 million in the quarter compared to earnings of $1 million in the prior year. The earnings decline was primarily driven by a lower gross margin percentage reflecting higher supply chain costs and cost inflation including higher transportation and logistics costs.
Corporate
Corporate in the third quarter of fiscal 2018 included non-cash impairment charges of $619 million related to the Campbell Fresh segment, transaction and integration costs of $72 million related to the acquisition of Snyder’s-Lance, charges related to cost savings initiatives of $46 million, and a charge of $22 million related to the settlement of a legal claim. Corporate in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 included charges related to cost savings initiatives of $7 million. The remaining decrease in expenses primarily reflects the benefit of higher pension and postretirement income.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures |
Third Quarter Ended April 29, 2018 |
Campbell Soup Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission in certain communications. These non-GAAP financial measures are measures of performance not defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should be considered in addition to, not in lieu of, GAAP reported measures. Management believes that also presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures provides additional information to facilitate comparison of the company's historical operating results and trends in its underlying operating results, and provides transparency on how the company evaluates its business. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the company's performance. |
Organic Net Sales |
Organic net sales are net sales excluding the impact of currency and acquisitions. Management believes that excluding these items, which are not part of the ongoing business, improves the comparability of year-to-year results. A reconciliation of net sales as reported to organic net sales follows. |
