Company Guidance

During the Premier Foods Half Year results Bond Investor Call, several key metrics and strategic insights were shared. The company reported a 3% increase in Q2 UK branded growth, bringing the H1 growth to 2%, despite earlier weather impacts in Q1. Total branded revenue grew by 1.9%, with market share gains of 130 basis points over three years. Trading profit is up by 7% and adjusted PBT by 10%, excluding the impact of the extended producer responsibility levy. The company has reduced its net debt to EBITDA to 1%, following the acquisition of Merchant Gourmet. CapEx guidance was increased from GBP 50 million to GBP 55 million, reflecting the deployment of capital into high-return projects. Internationally, in-market performance in Australia grew by 17% for Cake, although this did not translate to revenue due to stock holding adjustments. The company remains open to future acquisitions if they align with their strategic goals, maintaining a cadence of roughly one acquisition per year.
