Why Food Processing Firm TreeHouse Foods Shares Are Diving Today
Portfolio Pulse from Shivani Kumaresan
TreeHouse Foods Inc (NYSE:THS) shares dropped after reporting a 3.9% decline in Q1 revenue and an adjusted EPS miss. Despite beating sales estimates, unfavorable volume/mix and a broth facility restart led to the decline. Gross margin contracted, and the company reported an operating loss, contrasting with last year's profit. TreeHouse reaffirmed its FY24 sales and adjusted EBITDA outlook, expecting margin expansion through supply chain savings and the broth facility's restart.

The share price drop is directly related to the reported revenue decline and EPS miss for Q1. Despite beating sales estimates, the negative financial performance and operational challenges, such as the broth facility restart, have impacted investor confidence. However, the company's reaffirmation of its FY24 outlook suggests a potential recovery, mitigating the impact slightly.
