"I'd like to thank the entire Campbell's team for finding ways to deliver solid results in this dynamic environment.

Fourth-Quarter Results
Net sales in the quarter increased 11% to $2.3 billion driven by the benefit from the Sovos Brands acquisition, which is also referred to below as the acquisition. Organic net sales decreased 1% to $2.0 billion with net price realization down 2%, partially offset by 1% favorable volume / mix that sequentially improved from the third quarter.
Gross profit increased to $675 million from $656 million. Gross profit margin was 29.4% compared to 31.7%. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted gross profit increased to $719 million from $632 million. Adjusted gross profit margin increased 80 basis points to 31.4% mainly driven by supply chain productivity improvements, which more than offset unfavorable net price realization, higher cost inflation and other supply chain costs, and the impact of the acquisition.
Marketing and selling expenses, which represented approximately 8% of net sales, decreased 6% to $188 million. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted marketing and selling expenses decreased 4% to $187 million, primarily driven by lower advertising and consumer expense (A&C) on the base business as the company lapped significant spending in the prior year. Reductions in A&C on the base business and lower incentive compensation were partially offset by the impact of the acquisition.
Administrative expenses increased 9% to $182 million. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted administrative expenses increased 1% to $165 million driven by the impact of the acquisition and higher general and administrative costs, mostly offset by the benefits from cost savings initiatives and lower incentive compensation.
Other expenses were $181 million compared to other income of $9 million, primarily driven by $129 million of non-cash impairment charges related to Pop Secret and Allied brands (including Tom's , Jays , Kruncher's , O-Ke-Doke , Stella D'oro and Archway ) and by pension and postretirement actuarial adjustments. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted other expenses were $12 million compared to $7 million, driven by higher amortization of intangible assets related to the acquisition and lower pension and postretirement benefit income.
As reported EBIT decreased to $77 million from $272 million primarily driven by the above-mentioned impairment charges and pension and postretirement actuarial adjustments. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted EBIT increased 36% to $329 million primarily due to higher adjusted gross profit from the contribution of the acquisition and base business performance.
Net interest expense was $83 million compared to $47 million, primarily due to an increase in interest expense related to higher levels of debt to fund the acquisition. The effective tax rate was 50.0% compared to 24.9% driven by the impact of impairment charges. Excluding items impacting comparability, the adjusted effective tax rate increased 10 basis points to 23.2%.
As reported EPS were a loss of $0.01 per share compared to earnings of $0.57 per share. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted EPS increased 26% to $0.63 per share primarily reflecting the increase in adjusted EBIT, partially offset by higher net interest expense. The acquisition was approximately neutral to fourth-quarter adjusted earnings per share.
Full-Year 2024 Results
Net sales increased 3% to $9.6 billion driven by the benefit of the recent acquisition. Organic net sales decreased 1% to $9.2 billion with unfavorable volume / mix partially offset by the benefit of net price realization.
As reported EBIT decreased 24% to $1.0 billion primarily driven by the impact of impairment charges and costs associated with the acquisition. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted EBIT increased 6% to $1.5 billion primarily due to higher adjusted gross profit from the contribution of the acquisition, partially offset by higher adjusted marketing and selling and adjusted other expenses.
Net interest expense increased 32% to $243 million. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted net interest expense was $241 million compared to $184 million, primarily due to an increase in interest expense related to higher levels of debt to fund the acquisition. The effective tax rate increased 120 basis points to 25.1%. Excluding items impacting comparability, the adjusted effective tax rate was comparable to the prior year at 23.7%.
As reported EPS decreased to $1.89 per share compared to $2.85 per share. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted EPS increased $0.08, or 3%, to $3.08 per share primarily reflecting the increase in adjusted EBIT, partially offset by higher adjusted net interest expense. The acquisition was approximately neutral to full-year adjusted earnings per share.
Cash flow from operations was $1.2 billion compared to $1.1 billion primarily due to changes in working capital. Capital expenditures were $517 million compared to $370 million. In line with Campbell's commitment to return value to its shareholders, the company paid $445 million of cash dividends and repurchased common stock of approximately $67 million. As of the fiscal year end, the company had approximately $301 million remaining under the current $500 million strategic share repurchase program and approximately $37 million remaining under its $250 million anti-dilutive share repurchase program.
Cost Savings Program from Continuing Operations
Through the fourth quarter, Campbell has delivered $950 million of total savings under its $1 billion multi-year cost savings program, inclusive of $60 million realized in fiscal 2024.
Additionally, post-closing, the company achieved $10 million in cost synergies related to the Sovos Brands integration plan.
Full-Year Fiscal 2025 Guidance:
Campbell's full-year fiscal 2025 guidance reflects a balance between sequential progress and pragmatism as the company continues to navigate the on-going consumer recovery. The upper end of the range anticipates a quicker normalization of the consumer environment while the lower end of the range assumes a slower, more conservative pace of recovery.
The recent Pop Secret business divestiture closed on August 26, 2024, and accordingly, full-year guidance is inclusive of the lost sales and earnings of that business for the remaining eleven months of fiscal year 2025. The estimated impact of this divestiture is expected to reduce reported net sales growth by approximately 1% and have an expected dilutive impact of $0.04 to adjusted EPS in fiscal 2025.
Guidance reflects the following underlying assumptions:
- Fiscal 2025 comprises 53 weeks, one additional week compared to fiscal 2024. The benefit of the 53rd week is included in the fiscal 2025 guidance below and is estimated to be worth approximately 2 points of growth to reported net sales and adjusted EBIT, along with $0.06 of adjusted EPS.
- Net sales growth of 9% to 11% reflecting a full twelve-month contribution from Sovos Brands and the loss of eleven months of net sales from the divestiture of Pop Secret.
- Organic net sales flat to up 2% reflecting modestly positive volume/mix compared to fiscal 2024.
-
Adjusted EBIT growth of 9% to 11%, including the contribution from the acquisition, the impact of the divestiture of Pop Secret and reflecting the following:
- Inflation in the low-single digit range, with continued mitigation through a variety of levers including productivity improvements of approximately 3% and cost savings initiatives of approximately $70 million, inclusive of cost synergies related to the integration of Sovos Brands.
- A continued commitment to brand investments, with marketing and selling expenses as a percent of net sales expected to return into the targeted range of 9-10%, including an increase in the first quarter of fiscal 2025.
- Total company adjusted EBIT margin comparable to fiscal 2024. Snacks operating margin is expected to reflect modest growth inclusive of the near-term margin impact of the Pop Secret divestiture. Meals & Beverages operating margin is expected to be modestly lower reflecting the mix impact of Sovos Brands, partially offset by a modest margin improvement in the base business.
- Adjusted EPS growth of 1% to 4% with Sovos Brands expected to be approximately neutral and including the impact of the Pop Secret divestiture.
-
Adjusted net interest expense expected to be between $350 million and $355 million.
- Net interest expense is expected to be higher than fiscal 2024 reflecting a full year of incremental debt related to the Sovos Brands acquisition and higher expected interest expense associated with the anticipated refinancing of the company's March 2025 bond maturities, with expected debt issuance timing driven by market conditions.
Other additional guidance assumptions can be found in the accompanying investor presentation available at investor.campbellsoupcompany.com/events-and-presentations .

Note: A non-GAAP reconciliation is not provided for fiscal 2025 guidance as the company is unable to reasonably estimate the full-year financial impact of items such as actuarial gains or losses on pension and postretirement plans because these impacts are dependent on future changes in market conditions. The inability to predict the amount and timing of these future items makes a detailed reconciliation of these forward-looking financial measures impracticable. |

Meals & Beverages
Net sales in the quarter increased 28% driven by the benefit of the Sovos Brands acquisition. Excluding the acquisition, organic net sales increased 1% driven by gains in U.S. Soup, foodservice and Prego pasta sauces, partially offset by declines in beverages. Favorable volume / mix of 2% was partially offset by lower net price realization of 1%. Sales of U.S. soup increased 2% primarily due to an increase in broth, partially offset by decreases in ready-to-serve soups and condensed soups.
Operating earnings in the quarter increased 60% primarily driven by the contribution of the acquisition and higher gross profit in the base business. Gross profit margin increased due to lower other supply chain costs, supply chain productivity improvements and favorable mix, partially offset by moderate inflation, the impact of the recent acquisition and planned unfavorable net price realization.
Snacks
Net sales, both reported and organic, decreased 3% in the quarter. Volume / mix was flat with approximately 1% growth in power brands and a 1% reduction in partner and contract brands. In addition, there was slightly more than a 2% unfavorable net price realization of which approximately half was a planned net pricing investment and the balance reflecting the lapping of favorable trade phasing in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023.
Operating earnings in the quarter increased 1% primarily due to lower marketing and selling expenses, partially offset by lower gross profit. Gross profit margin decreased due to higher other supply chain costs and lower net price realization, partially offset by supply chain productivity improvements.
Corporate
Corporate expense was $272 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 compared to $17 million. The increase was primarily due to non-cash items impacting comparability, partially offset by lower administrative expenses.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Fiscal Year Ended July 28, 2024
Campbell Soup Company (the "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. Management considers quantitative and qualitative factors in assessing whether to adjust for the impact of items that may be significant or that could affect an understanding of the company's performance and trends in its underlying operating results. The adjustments on earnings may include but are not limited to items such as: unusual or non-recurring gains or charges; costs associated with cost savings and optimization initiatives; actuarial gains or losses on pension and postretirement plans; unrealized mark-to-market gains or losses on outstanding undesignated commodity hedges; gains or losses on the extinguishment of debt; gains or losses on divestitures; costs associated with acquisitions; impairment charges or accelerated amortization; certain litigation expenses; and costs related to a cybersecurity incident. Depending upon facts or circumstances, management may change these adjustments. When these adjustments change, the company will provide updated definitions of its non-GAAP financial measures. When items no longer impact the company's current or future presentation of non-GAAP operating results, the company will remove these items from its non-GAAP definitions.
Organic Net Sales
Organic net sales are net sales excluding the impact of currency, acquisitions and divestitures. 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.

Items Impacting Earnings
Adjusted Net earnings are net earnings excluding the impact of costs associated with cost savings and optimization initiatives, costs associated with acquisitions, unrealized mark-to-market gains or losses on outstanding undesignated commodity hedges, accelerated amortization, actuarial gains or losses on pension and postretirement plans, impairment charges, certain litigation expenses, costs related to a cybersecurity incident, and gains or losses on divestitures.
