From the latest earnings call
- CEO Mick Beekhuizen said the Snacks plan focuses on core consumers, brand support and product availability, while CFO Todd Cunfer expects first-quarter sales to decline by high single digits.
- Cunfer said pricing should contribute from the second quarter, while cost savings build later in the year and first-quarter gross margin declines significantly.
