What the Analysts think about Hormel
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Hormel stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Hormel posted Q3 FY25 net sales of $3.03 billion, topping the $2.98 billion consensus, boosted by higher prices on Jennie-O turkey products that helped offset avian flu–driven production expenses (Reuters).
Retail volume for Hormel’s protein products grew 5% in Q3 FY25, reversing a previous 7% decline and signaling healthy consumer appetite for budget-friendly home meals (Reuters).
Hormel reaffirmed its full-year sales and profit outlook in late May 2025 despite missing revenue estimates, leading to an 8% rise in its share price and demonstrating investor confidence in the company’s pricing strategy and cost control (Reuters).
Hormel Foods narrowed its full-year adjusted profit guidance to $1.58–$1.68 per share, reducing the midpoint due to ongoing supply chain issues and a 7% decline in Q2 sales volumes amid weak retail demand (Reuters).
In Q3 FY25, Hormel missed analysts’ earnings estimates, posting $0.35 EPS compared to the $0.41 forecast, and guided Q4 adjusted EPS to $0.38–$0.40, citing higher commodity costs and pushing projected profit recovery into next year (Reuters).
For Q2 ending April 30, 2025, Hormel’s net sales dropped 3.8% to $2.98 billion, missing consensus of $3.05 billion, as volumes fell across retail, foodservice, and international segments, and margins were pressured by supply chain disruptions and excess inventory (Reuters).
