Company Description
TreeHouse Foods, Inc. operates as a food manufacturing company servicing retail grocery and food service distribution channels in the United States and Canada. The company was founded in 1862 and has a market cap of $2.3 billion.
Food stocks are viewed as benefiting from less elastic demand during market and economic volatility. That and strong Q3 results from November helped push THS to a fresh all-time high.
Third-Quarter Results
Revenue for the period was up 14% from last year to $528 million. Earnings also came in strong at 85 cents, 4% ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate.
The company's North American Retail Grocery segment led the way, with sales up an impressive 16% from last year to $370 million on growth in private label items. Its Industrial and Export segment saw a 28% increase in sales.
Estimates
We saw a little movement in estimates off the good quarter, with the current year adding 2 cents to $2.94 and the next-year estimate adding 3 cents to $3.42, a bullish 16% growth projection.
Valuation
With a PEG ratio 1.44, THS trades at a premium to the benchmark of 1 for value.
5-Year Chart
On the chart, the long-term trend is bullish, with shares recently hitting a new all-time high on another solid quarter. Take a look below.
