Looking to fiscal 2025, Campbell’s net sales are expected to expand 9%-11% thanks to a twelve-month contribution of Sovos Brands, offset in part by the divestiture of Pop Secret. Organic net sales are expected to be flat to up 2%, which reflects positive volume/mix compared to last year. Adjusted EBIT growth is targeted at 9%-11%, including Sovos and the impact of the divestiture of Pop Secret. Adjusted earnings per share growth is expected in the range of 1%-4%, inclusive of Sovos acquisition and Pop Secret divestiture, to $3.12-$3.22 (versus $3.23 consensus).
