General Mills, Inc. Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise
General Mills is battling escalated input cost-inflation for a while. A rise in costs has been putting pressure on the company’s margins. Management in its fiscal second-quarter earnings call highlighted that it expects double-digit input cost inflation in the latter half. This is likely to affect the company’s performance in the third quarter of fiscal 2022.
General Mills is bearing the brunt of industry-wide shortages in the labor market. Such shortages are impacting its supply chain and leading to escalated costs. Challenges across raw material suppliers, internal and external production facilities and distribution centers among others, are creating service challenges and escalated expenses. The persistence of these factors is likely to have hurt General Mills’ performance in the quarter under review.
