Marzetti Co Earnings Call Summary for Q1/2027

  • Marzetti posted Q1 adjusted EPS of $1.14, missing estimates by 16.8%, while revenue fell 2.4% to $481.5M due to cyclospora outbreak and freight costs.
  • Operating income dropped 30.1% to $41.4M; gross margin narrowed 110 basis points as freight inflation and lower factory utilization pressured profitability.
  • Company maintained full-year mid-single-digit sales growth outlook but lowered gross margin expansion target to 25-75 basis points from 100 basis points.
  • Management expects recovery acceleration in Q2 and beyond as outbreak impact fades; new product launches including Chick-fil-A sauce set for November.
  • Bachan's Japanese barbecue sauce delivered double-digit growth with expanding distribution; quarterly dividend raised 5% to $1.00 per share.
