CAMDEN, N.J.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Jun. 27, 2025– The Campbell’s Company (NASDAQ:CPB ) has been named a 2025 honoree of the Civic 50 Greater Philadelphia by the Chamber of Commerce for Greater Philadelphia in partnership with the nonprofit Points of Light.
The Civic 50 Greater Philadelphia measures and recognizes civic-minded companies that use their time, talent, and resources to drive social impact within their organizations and communities – setting the standard for civic engagement in the region. Honorees were selected based on four dimensions of their community engagement program including investment of resources, integration across business functions, institutionalization and impact measurement.
“We believe in the power of food to connect people and build stronger communities, starting in Camden and the Greater Philadelphia region – our home for more than 155 years,” said Mick Beekhuizen, Campbell’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “We’re proud of our legacy of impact and the continued work our team does every day to strengthen and empower all the communities where we live and work.”
Campbell’s is an active community partner in the Greater Philadelphia and South Jersey region, working to strengthen and empower communities through employee volunteerism, grant making and long-term partnerships with nonprofits. The work is focused on three core areas: Increasing food access, encouraging healthy living, and nurturing Campbell’s neighborhoods. Last year, Campbell’s employees based at its Camden headquarters contributed over 10,000 volunteer hours.
The company’s philanthropic work is driven by The Campbell’s Foundation, which provides Community Impact Grants, supports long-term partnerships addressing food access and food security, and matches monetary donations made by employees. Earlier this week, the company provided a $1.5 million grant through The Campbell’s Foundation to the Food Bank of South Jersey to support its new Center for Health, Wellness, and Nutrition. The new space is designed to expand access to nutritious food, advance community health and provide wellness programs across South Jersey.
The company’s multi-year community program, Full Futures, brings together nonprofit, private and public partners in the Camden City School District to support school nutrition programming that ensures all students are well nourished and ready to thrive in school and life. Now in its fourth year, the program takes a comprehensive approach to advance the school food environment—from cafeteria equipment, to expanded meal programs, to menu reformulation and more.
“The Chamber is proud to recognize Campbell’s as a 2025 honoree of the Civic 50 Greater Philadelphia,” said Chellie Cameron, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Chamber. “Each of this year’s honorees are valued members of Greater Philadelphia’s business community, exemplifying what it means to be a positive corporate citizen and demonstrating the power of service. We thank Campbell’s for their efforts to drive impact and congratulate them on this tremendous achievement.”

Third Quarter Results Net sales in the quarter increased 4% to $2.5 billion driven by the benefit from the Sovos Brands acquisition. Organic net sales increased 1% to $2.3 billion primarily driven by 2% favorable volume/mix, partially offset by planned unfavorable net price realization.
Gross profit decreased to $728 million from $732 million. Gross profit margin was 29.4% compared to 30.9%. Adjusted gross profit increased to $745 million from $740 million. Adjusted gross profit margin decreased 110 basis points to 30.1% mainly driven by cost inflation and other supply chain costs, unfavorable net price realization and the impact of the acquisition, partially offset by supply chain productivity improvements, the benefits from cost savings initiatives and volume/mix favorability.
Marketing and selling expenses, which represented approximately 9% of net sales, increased 5% to $216 million. Adjusted marketing and selling expenses increased 5% to $207 million primarily driven by the impact of the acquisition.
Administrative expenses decreased 22% to $162 million. Adjusted administrative expenses decreased 4% to $150 million mainly driven by the benefit from cost savings initiatives, partially offset by higher general administrative costs and inflation and the impact of the acquisition.
Other expenses were $160 million compared to $30 million, primarily driven by a non-cash impairment charge of $150 million related to the Snyder’s of Hanover trademark. Adjusted other expenses were $4 million compared to $8 million.
EBIT decreased to $161 million from $248 million primarily driven by the above-mentioned impairment charge. Adjusted EBIT increased 2% to $362 million primarily due to the contribution of the acquisition, partially offset by lower adjusted EBIT in the base business. The base business performance was primarily driven by lower adjusted gross profit partially offset by lower adjusted administrative expenses and adjusted other expenses.
Net interest expense increased to $80 million from $66 million, primarily due to higher levels of debt and higher average interest rates on the debt portfolio. Adjusted net interest expense was $64 million in the prior year. The effective tax rate decreased to 18.5% compared to 26.9% and the adjusted effective tax rate was 22.7% compared to 22.8%.
EPS decreased to $0.22 per share compared to $0.44 per share. Adjusted EPS decreased 3% to $0.73 per share primarily reflecting higher adjusted net interest expense partially offset by the increase in adjusted EBIT. The acquisition was accretive to adjusted earnings per share.
Cash Flow and Shareholder Return Cash flow from operations for the nine months ending April 27, 2025 was $872 million compared to $897 million in the prior year primarily due to changes in working capital. Capital expenditures year-to-date were $296 million compared to $376 million. In line with Campbell’s commitment to return value to its shareholders, the company has paid $343 million of cash dividends and repurchased common stock of approximately $60 million year-to-date. As of the end of the third quarter, the company had approximately $200 million remaining under its anti-dilutive share repurchase program in addition to approximately $301 million remaining under its September 2021 strategic share repurchase program.
Cost Savings Program As of the end of the third quarter, Campbell’s has delivered approximately $110 million of savings under the $250 million cost savings program announced in September 2024.
Full-Year Fiscal 2025 Guidance: Based on the company’s year-to-date performance, Campbell’s is reaffirming its full-year fiscal 2025 guidance provided on March 5, 2025, excluding the impact of tariffs. Adjusted EBIT and adjusted EPS are now expected to be at the low end of the guidance range due to the slower than anticipated recovery in the Snacks business.
The current tariff situation is fluid in light of recent legal challenges; however, assuming the current tariff actions remain in place, the company estimates the net headwind of higher tariff-related costs could be up to an incremental of $0.03 to $0.05 per share to fiscal 2025 adjusted EPS. This is not factored into the company’s fiscal 2025 guidance as the tariff and trade environments are rapidly evolving.
Fiscal 2025 comprises 53 weeks, one additional week compared to fiscal 2024. The benefit of the 53rd week is included in the company’s fiscal 2025 guidance (with the exception of organic net sales which exclude the 53rd week) and is estimated to be worth approximately 2 points of growth to reported net sales and adjusted EBIT, along with approximately $0.05 of adjusted EPS.
Other additional guidance assumptions can be found in the accompanying investor presentation available at https://investor.thecampbellscompany.com/events-presentations.

Organic net sales exclude acquisitions, divestitures, currency and the 53rd week in fiscal 2025. FY 2025 guidance excludes the net impact of higher tariff-related costs.
* Adjusted – refer to the detailed reconciliation of the reported (GAAP) financial information to the adjusted financial information at the end of this news release.
Note: A non-GAAP reconciliation is not provided for fiscal 2025 guidance as the company is unable to reasonably estimate the full-year financial impact of items such as actuarial gains or losses on pension and postretirement plans because these impacts are dependent on future changes in market conditions. The inability to predict the amount and timing of these future items makes a detailed reconciliation of these forward-looking financial measures impracticable.

1 Reflects the incremental net sales associated with the Sovos Brands acquisition, which was completed on March 12, 2024, and the loss of net sales associated with the divestitures of the Pop Secret popcorn business, which was completed on August 26, 2024, and the noosa yoghurt business, which was completed on February 24, 2025.
Note: A detailed reconciliation of the reported (GAAP) net sales to organic net sales is included at the end of this news release.
Meals & Beverages Net sales in the quarter increased 15% mainly driven by the benefit of the acquisition. Excluding the impact of the acquisition and noosa divestiture, organic net sales increased 6% driven by gains in U.S. soup, Rao’s pasta sauces and Canada, partially related to favorable shipment timing. Favorable volume/mix of 7% was partially offset by lower net price realization of 1%. Sales of U.S. soup increased due to increases in condensed soups, broth and ready-to-serve soups. Net sales of Rao’s pasta sauces increased primarily due to the timing of shipments related to the implementation of our existing SAP enterprise-resource planning system for Sovos Brands.
Operating earnings in the quarter increased 8% primarily due to the benefit of the acquisition, partially offset by a decline in the base business.
Snacks Net sales in the quarter decreased 8%. Excluding the impact of the Pop Secret divestiture, organic net sales decreased 5% driven primarily by declines in Goldfish crackers, third-party partner and contract brands, Snyder’s of Hanover pretzels, Late July snacks and Lance sandwich crackers. Sales were impacted by volume/mix declines of 5% and neutral net price realization.
Operating earnings in the quarter decreased 13% primarily due to lower gross profit, partially offset by lower administrative expenses.
Corporate Corporate expense was $226 million in the quarter compared to $135 million. The increase was primarily due to a non-cash impairment charge on the Snyder’s of Hanover trademark and unrealized mark-to-market losses on outstanding undesignated commodity hedges compared to gains in the prior year, partially offset by costs associated with the acquisition in the prior year.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures Third Quarter Ended April 27, 2025
The Campbell’s Company (the “company”) uses certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission in certain communications. These non-GAAP financial measures are measures of performance not defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should be considered in addition to, not in lieu of, GAAP reported measures. Management believes that also presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures provides additional information to facilitate comparison of the company’s historical operating results and trends in its underlying operating results, and provides transparency on how the company evaluates its business. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the company’s performance. Management considers quantitative and qualitative factors in assessing whether to adjust for the impact of items that may be significant or that could affect an understanding of the company’s performance and trends in its underlying operating results. The adjustments on earnings may include but are not limited to items such as: unusual or non-recurring gains or charges; costs associated with cost savings and optimization initiatives; actuarial gains or losses on pension and postretirement plans; unrealized mark-to-market gains or losses on outstanding undesignated commodity hedges; gains or losses on the extinguishment of debt; gains or losses on divestitures; costs associated with acquisitions; impairment charges or accelerated amortization; certain litigation expenses or recoveries; and costs or recoveries related to a cybersecurity incident. Depending upon facts or circumstances, management may change these adjustments. When these adjustments change, the company will provide updated definitions of its non-GAAP financial measures. When items no longer impact the company’s current or future presentation of non-GAAP operating results, the company will remove these items from its non-GAAP definitions.
Organic Net Sales Organic net sales are net sales excluding the impact of currency, acquisitions, divestitures and the 53rd week in fiscal 2025. Management believes that excluding these items, which are not part of the ongoing business, improves the comparability of year-to-year results. A reconciliation of net sales as reported to organic net sales follows.

Items Impacting Earnings Adjusted Net earnings are net earnings excluding the impact of costs associated with cost savings and optimization initiatives, unrealized mark-to-market gains or losses on outstanding undesignated commodity hedges, accelerated amortization, gains or losses on divestitures, certain litigation expenses or recoveries, impairment charges, costs or recoveries related to a cybersecurity incident, actuarial gains or losses on pension and postretirement plans, and costs associated with acquisitions.
