Insights
The reported financial results of Sovos Brands, indicating a significant year-over-year growth in net sales and a strong increase in organic net sales growth, are noteworthy from an investment perspective. The data suggests that the company has effectively navigated inflationary pressures, which is evident from the expansion of its gross margin by 100-basis points to 30.0%. The adjusted EBITDA growth of 24.3% year-over-year also reflects a robust operating performance, outpacing many competitors in the sector.
From a financial health standpoint, the improvement in net leverage from 2.9x to 1.6x signals a stronger balance sheet and enhanced ability to service debt. The substantial cash reserves of $232 million further provide Sovos Brands with liquidity to support ongoing operations and potential strategic initiatives. However, investors should be aware of the costs associated with the pending merger with Campbell's, which can affect net income and potentially lead to short-term volatility in the stock price.
The impressive organic growth in the Rao's franchise, particularly the 36.2% dollar consumption growth, indicates a successful expansion strategy and a strong brand resonance with consumers. The reported 410 basis points increase in household penetration for Rao's sauce and the expansion into frozen, soup and pasta categories demonstrate the company's ability to innovate and capture additional market share.
Moreover, the strategic merger with Campbell's could potentially enhance Sovos Brands' distribution capabilities and product portfolio, which may lead to synergies and further growth opportunities. However, the integration process and the response from consumers and retailers will be critical factors to monitor post-merger.
The pending merger with Campbell's, set at $23 per share, represents a significant premium over the IPO price, indicating a favorable outcome for Sovos Brands' shareholders. The transaction is subject to regulatory approval, including compliance with the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act. The companies' recent certification of substantial compliance with the FTC's Second Request is a positive step towards finalizing the merger.
However, investors should consider the regulatory risks associated with such transactions, as any unforeseen antitrust concerns could delay or even prevent the merger's completion. The expected completion of the merger shortly after the waiting period expires on March 11, 2024, is an important event to track, as it will have a significant impact on the company's future operations and strategy.

As previously disclosed, on August 7, 2023, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Campbell’s and Premium Products Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Campbell’s (“Merger Sub”). The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth therein, including the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”), Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”) with the Company surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Campbell’s. As previously disclosed in a Form 8-K filed on October 23, 2023, the Company and Campbell’s each received a request for additional information (the “Second Request”) from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) in connection with the FTC’s review of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, which extended the waiting period under the HSR Act until 30 days after both the Company and Campbell’s substantially complied with the Second Request. As previously disclosed in a Form 8-K filed on February 13, 2024 (the “February 13, 2024 Form 8-K”), the Company and Campbell’s issued a joint press release announcing that both companies had certified substantial compliance with the Second Request. As previously disclosed in the February 13, 2024 Form 8-K, the certification of substantial compliance triggered the start of the 30-day waiting period under the HSR Act, which is expected to expire on March 11, 2024, after which the Merger can be finalized. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, the Company continues to expect to complete the Merger within days of the March 11, 2024 expiration date.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to the Company’s results which are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), the Company believes the following non-GAAP measures presented in this press release are useful in evaluating its operating performance: EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA margin, organic net sales, organic net sales growth, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating income, adjusted income tax (expense), adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted net income, and diluted earnings per share from adjusted net income. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) before net interest expense, income tax (expense) benefit, depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for non-cash equity-based compensation costs, non-recurring costs, gain (loss) on foreign currency contracts, supply chain optimization costs, impairment of goodwill, transaction and integration costs and IPO readiness costs. EBITDA margin is determined by calculating the percentage EBITDA is of net sales. Adjusted EBITDA margin is determined by calculating the percentage Adjusted EBITDA is of net sales. We define organic net sales as reported net sales growth excluding, when they occur, the impact of a 53rd week of shipments, acquisitions and divestitures. Organic net sales growth is determined by calculating the percentage of increase or decrease in organic net sales compared to the prior year period. Adjusted gross margin is determined by calculating adjusted gross profit as a percentage of net sales. Adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating income, adjusted income tax (expense) and adjusted effective tax rate, and adjusted net income consists of gross profit, total operating expenses, operating income (loss), reported income tax (expense) benefit, reported effective tax rate and net income (loss) before non-cash equity-based compensation costs, non-recurring costs, gain (loss) on foreign currency contracts, supply chain optimization costs, impairment of goodwill, transaction and integration costs, IPO readiness costs, acquisition amortization and tax-related adjustments that we do not consider in our evaluation of our ongoing operating performance from period to period as discussed further below. Diluted earnings per share from adjusted net income is determined by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted average diluted shares outstanding. Non-GAAP financial measures are included in this release because they are key metrics used by management to assess our operating performance. Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures are helpful in highlighting performance trends because non-GAAP financial measures eliminate non-recurring and unusual items and non-cash expenses, which we do not consider indicative of ongoing operational performance. Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by these items. By providing these non-GAAP financial measures, management believes we are enhancing investors’ understanding of our business and our results of operations, as well as assisting investors in evaluating how well we are executing our strategic initiatives.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA margin, organic net sales, organic net sales growth, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating income, adjusted income tax (expense), adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted net income and diluted earnings per share from adjusted net income are not defined under GAAP. Our use of the terms EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA margin, organic net sales, organic net sales growth, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating income, adjusted income tax (expense), adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted net income and diluted earnings per share from adjusted net income may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies in our industry and are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is intended to provide supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to operating income (loss), net income (loss), earnings (loss) per share, net sales or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP, or as measures of operating cash flows or liquidity.
