Read MoreHide Full Article
Mondelez International, Inc.(MDLZ - Free Report) is a global snacks powerhouse with brands spanning across five fast-growing snacks categories — biscuits, chocolate, gum and candy, beverages and cheese & grocery. Its portfolio includes popular names like Oreo, Nabisco and LU biscuits; Milka, Cadbury Dairy Milk and Cadbury chocolates; Trident gum; and Tang powdered beverage.
Though the company has been consistently improving margins through cost cuts and productivity gains, its top line has been soft due to category weakness due to lower demand, elasticity impact from higher pricing, currency headwinds and increased competitive pressures.
Investors should note that earnings estimate for MDLZ has remained stable for some time. Moreover, MDLZ has a decent earnings history. The global snacks company has posted positive earnings surprise in three of the past four quarters, with an average positive surprise of 10.52%.
