Company Guidance -
Q3 2025
During the Utz Brands, Inc. Second Quarter 2025 Earnings Conference Call, the company provided guidance characterized by expectations of 8.5% EBITDA growth at the midpoint for the full year, implying high-teens growth in the back half despite a flat performance in the first half. The company anticipates gross margin improvements, driven by accelerated capital expenditures, productivity savings, and strategic plant closures. Furthermore, Utz revised its EPS growth guidance from 10-15% to 7-10%, attributing this adjustment to increased interest expenses and accelerated depreciation. The company also highlighted strong top-line results, propelled by distribution gains and volume and value share improvements in core regions, alongside westward expansion. Marketing investments have increased by 44% year-over-year, with a focus on driving growth in both existing and expanding markets. Utz remains confident in achieving its long-term goals of 100 basis points annual EBITDA margin expansion and double-digit EPS growth.
