Flowers Foods, Inc., headquartered in Thomasville, Georgia, is a leading producer of packaged bakery foods in the United States, known for its popular brands like Nature’s Own and Dave’s Killer Bread. The company operates in the consumer goods sector, focusing on bakery products.
In its second quarter of 2025, Flowers Foods reported a modest increase in net sales by 1.5% to $1.243 billion, driven primarily by the acquisition of Simple Mills. However, the company faced a decline in net income by 12.8% to $58.4 million due to increased costs and higher interest expenses.
Key financial metrics revealed a decrease in adjusted EBITDA by 4.0% to $137.7 million, while diluted EPS fell by $0.04 to $0.28. The Simple Mills acquisition contributed significantly to net sales but also resulted in a net loss of $2.1 million. The company’s strategic focus on innovation and M&A aims to align its portfolio with consumer demand for healthier and value-oriented products.
Looking ahead, Flowers Foods anticipates net sales growth for the fiscal year 2025 between 2.7% and 4.0%, adjusting its guidance due to competitive pressures and softness in traditional loaf sales. The company remains committed to cost-saving measures and portfolio transformation to drive long-term growth.
