More on Kraft Heinz Stock
Kraft Heinz has been implementing effective pricing strategies to enhance its performance amid low volumes and inflationary pressures. In the first quarter of 2025, the company’s pricing increased 0.9 percentage points year over year. The favorable pricing was a result of adjustments in certain categories to address higher input costs, mainly in coffee. This upside was driven by increases in the North America and Emerging Markets segments.
Kraft Heinz has been strategically increasing its investments in value-driving initiatives, reflected in a narrowing price gap with private label brands. These efforts are part of a broader commitment to delivering exceptional consumer value while laying the groundwork for sustainable brand growth. Central to this strategy is the company’s Brand Growth System, a structured framework designed to identify high-potential opportunities, inform data-driven investments and prioritize future initiatives.
Despite its strategic wins, Kraft Heinz has been experiencing weak volume performance over the past few quarters, with the trend continuing into the first quarter of 2025. During this period, the company’s volume/mix dropped 5.6 percentage points from the prior-year levels, with declines across all segments. Kraft Heinz has also been facing margin pressure, as witnessed in the first quarter, wherein adjusted gross margin contracted 10 bps to 34.4%.
In the past month, shares of this Zacks Rank #4 (Sell) company have lost 6.7% compared with the industry’s decline of 3.5%.
