John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. Reports Fiscal 2025 First Quarter Results
John B. Sanfilippo & Son (NASDAQ: JBSS) reported mixed fiscal 2025 first quarter results. Sales volume increased 24.5% to 91.2 million pounds, while net sales rose 18.0% to $276.2 million, primarily driven by the Lakeville Acquisition. However, gross profit declined 18.4% to $46.5 million, and diluted EPS decreased 33.8% to $1.00 per share.
The consumer distribution channel showed strong growth, with sales volume up 30.8%. The company faced challenges from increasing commodity costs and a one-time concession to a snack bar customer due to capacity constraints at the Lakeville facility, though these constraints have been resolved.
John B. Sanfilippo & Son (NASDAQ: JBSS) ha riportato risultati misti per il primo trimestre fiscale 2025. Il volume delle vendite è aumentato del 24,5%, raggiungendo 91,2 milioni di libbre, mentre le vendite nette sono cresciute del 18,0%, toccando $276,2 milioni, principalmente grazie all'acquisizione di Lakeville.

Il canale di distribuzione al consumatore ha mostrato una forte crescita, con un aumento del volume delle vendite del 30,8%. L'azienda ha affrontato sfide a causa dell'aumento dei costi delle materie prime e di una concessione temporanea a un cliente di barrette snack a causa di limitazioni di capacità presso lo stabilimento di Lakeville, sebbene queste limitazioni siano state risolte.

존 B. 샌필리포 & 아들 (NASDAQ: JBSS)는 2025 회계연도 첫 분기에 대한 혼합된 실적을 발표했습니다. 판매량은 24.5% 증가하여 9120만 파운드에 달했고, 순매출은 18.0% 상승하여 $276.2 백만에 이르렀으며, 이는 주로 레이크빌 인수 덕분입니다. 하지만, 총 이익은 18.4% 감소하여 $4650만으로 줄었고, 희석된 주당 순이익(EPS)은 33.8% 감소하여 주당 $1.00로 떨어졌습니다.
소비자 유통 채널은 판매량이 30.8% 증가하며 강력한 성장을 보였습니다. 회사는 원자재 비용 상승과 레이크빌 공장의 용량 제약으로 인해 스낵 바 고객에게 단기적으로 양보를 해야 했지만, 이 제약은 해결되었습니다.

CEO Commentary
“We were encouraged by sales volume increases across all three of our distribution channels in the first quarter. The consumer distribution channel delivered its strongest quarterly sales volume growth (excluding the impact from the Lakeville Acquisition) in the past eight quarters, as the overall core nut and trail mix category continues to stabilize and recover. We remain optimistic that the strategic pricing actions we initiated last quarter will continue to drive positive momentum in our consumer distribution channel. However, the category may be challenged by increasing commodity costs and corresponding selling price increases in the next few quarters,” stated Jeffrey T. Sanfilippo, Chief Executive Officer.
“In addition to the impact from our strategic pricing actions, our profitability in the quarter was impacted by a one-time concession to a snack bar customer due to capacity constraints at our Lakeville facility. We believe these capacity constraints have been resolved. However, we continue to focus on identifying and implementing cost savings and operational efficiencies to enhance our future profitability,” Mr. Sanfilippo concluded.

These forward-looking statements may be generally identified by the use of forward-looking words and phrases such as “will”, “intends”, “may”, “believes”, “anticipates”, “should” and “expects” and are based on the Company’s current expectations or beliefs concerning future events and involve risks and uncertainties. Consequently, the Company’s actual results could differ materially. The Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or other factors that affect the subject of these statements, except where expressly required to do so by law. Among the factors that could cause results to differ materially from current expectations are: (i) sales activity for the Company’s products, such as a decline in sales to one or more key customers, or to customers or in the nut or snack bar categories generally, in some or all channels, a change in product mix to lower price products, a decline in sales of private brand products or changing consumer preferences, including a shift from higher margin products to lower margin products; (ii) changes in the availability and costs of raw materials and ingredients; (iii) the impact of any fixed price commitments with customers; (iv) the ability to pass on price increases to customers if and when commodity costs rise and the potential for a negative impact on demand for, and sales of, our products from price increases; (v) the ability to accurately measure and estimate bulk inventory, fluctuations in the value and quantity of the Company’s nut inventories due to fluctuations in the market prices of nuts and bulk inventory adjustments, respectively; (vi) losses associated with product recalls, product contamination, food labeling or other food safety issues, or the potential for lost sales or product liability if customers lose confidence in the safety of the Company’s products or in nuts or nut products in general, or are harmed as a result of using the Company’s products; (vii) the ability of the Company to control costs (including inflationary costs) and manage shortages in areas such as inputs, transportation and labor; (viii) uncertainty in economic conditions, including the potential for inflation or economic downturn leading to decreased consumer demand; (ix) the adverse effect of work slowdowns or stoppages, strikes, boycotts or other types of labor unrest; (x) the adverse effect of litigation and/or legal settlements, including potential unfavorable outcomes exceeding any amounts accrued; (xi) losses due to significant disruptions at any of our production, processing or warehouse facilities; (xii) the ability to implement our Long-Range Plan, including growing our branded and private brand product sales, diversifying our product offerings (including by the launch of new products) and expanding into alternative sales channels; (xiii) technology disruptions or failures or the occurrence of cybersecurity incidents or breaches; (xiv) the inability to protect the Company’s brand value, intellectual property or avoid intellectual property disputes; (xv) our ability to manage the impacts of changing weather patterns on raw material availability due to climate change; and (xvi) our ability to operate and further integrate the acquired snack bar related assets at our Lakeville facility and realize efficiencies and synergies from such acquisition.
