Walmart Signals Potential Price Increases as Food Producers Focus on Margins (WMT)May 27, 2026 7:52 AM
IH Market News Walmart (NYSE:WMT) absorbed roughly $175 million in fuel expenses above expectations during the first quarter of fiscal 2027, creating an estimated 250 basis point drag on operating income growth across its worldwide logistics, distribution and fulfillment operations, according to Barclays. The retailer said the move to absorb the additional costs was deliberate, allowing it to continue investing in pricing in order to strengthen customer loyalty and support ongoing market share gains. However, Walmart warned that if elevated operating costs remain in place, the company may need to introduce modest retail price increases beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2027 and continuing throughout the remainder of the year. Barclays said packaged food manufacturers are increasingly likely to prioritise margin protection through pricing measures, even if doing so slows the pace of volume recovery. The bank noted that while price increases carry risks in a consumer environment already facing resistance to higher costs, food companies have historically tended to outperform during pricing-driven cycles because stronger pricing helps preserve revenue growth and profitability. The investment bank highlighted companies such as General Mills (NYSE:GIS), JM Smucker (NYSE:SJM) and Kraft Heinz (NASDAQ:KHC) as groups currently discussing efforts to optimise manufacturing footprints, suggesting capacity rationalisation could become a more important part of broader restructuring strategies. Barclays also noted that the food retail sector is facing increasing complexity as inflationary pressures coincide with heavier price investment across the industry. Walmart’s first-quarter results showed accelerating unit share gains, helped by a 20% increase in price rollbacks. Meanwhile, Kroger (NYSE:KR) is revising its pricing strategy under new leadership, while BJ’s Wholesale Club (NYSE:BJ) discussed additional pricing investments during the previous week. The bank added that even if Walmart ultimately raises prices, the retailer has historically demonstrated an ability to absorb a greater portion of cost inflation than many competitors, helping maintain significant pricing advantages across the market.

Capitalized terms used in this release but not otherwise defined have the meaning given in the Offer to Purchase. The applicable total consideration for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase (the “Total Consideration”) was determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase by reference to the Fixed Spread (as defined below) for the applicable Series specified below over the applicable Reference Yield (as defined below) based on the bid-side price of the applicable Reference Treasury Security specified below, as calculated by the Dealer Managers (as defined below), today at 10:00 a.m. New York City time.

The Issuer will not accept for purchase any of the 2049 Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Time, or any Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time.

Kraft Heinz Announces Early Tender Participation Results, Satisfaction of the Financing Condition, and Election of Early Settlement for Its Previously Announced Cash Tender OfferMay 21, 2026 8:45 AM
Business Wire The Kraft Heinz Company (“Kraft Heinz”) (Nasdaq: KHC) announced today the early tender results, as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 20, 2026 (the “Early Tender Time”), and the satisfaction of the condition to receive proceeds of an offering of new senior unsecured notes on terms satisfactory to the Issuer (the “Financing Condition”), in each case in respect of the previously announced offer by Kraft Heinz Foods Company, its 100% owned subsidiary (the “Issuer”), to purchase for cash (the “Tender Offer”) up to the maximum combined aggregate purchase price of $1,100,000,000, excluding accrued and unpaid interest (the “Maximum Tender Amount”), of its outstanding 4.375% Senior Notes due June 2046 (the “2046 Notes”) and its 4.875% Senior Notes due October 2049 (the “2049 Notes” and, together with the 2046 Notes, the “Notes” and each, a “Series” of Notes), from each registered holder of the Notes (the “Holders”), pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the offer to purchase dated May 7, 2026 (the “Offer to Purchase”). Capitalized terms used in this release but not otherwise defined have the meaning given in the Offer to Purchase. The following table sets forth certain information regarding the Notes and the Tender Offer, including the aggregate principal amount of Notes that were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn as of the Early Tender Time according to Global Bondholder Services Corporation, the Tender Agent and Information Agent for the Tender Offer: CUSIP No. / ISIN Title of Security Acceptance Priority Level Principal Amount Outstanding Aggregate Principal Amount Tendered 50077L AB2 / US50077LAB27

due October 2049 2 $1,450,000,000 $822,568,000 Kraft Heinz also announced that, with respect to the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Time, the Issuer has elected to have an early settlement date with payment for such Notes to occur on May 26, 2026. The deadline to withdraw Notes tendered in the Tender Offer was 5:00 p.m. New York City time, on May 20, 2026, which deadline has not been extended (such date and time, the “Withdrawal Date”). Accordingly, Notes tendered at or prior to the Withdrawal Date may no longer be withdrawn, except in certain limited circumstances where the Issuer determines that additional withdrawal rights are required by law. Subject to applicable law, the Issuer has reserved the right, in its sole discretion, to at any time (i) waive any and all conditions to the Tender Offer, (ii) extend, terminate, or withdraw the Tender Offer, (iii) increase or waive the Maximum Tender Amount, with or without extending the Withdrawal Date, or (iv) otherwise amend the Tender Offer in any respect. The applicable Total Consideration for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase will be determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase by reference to the Fixed Spread for the applicable Series specified on the front cover of the Offer to Purchase over the applicable Reference Yield based on the bid-side price of the applicable Reference Treasury Security specified on the front cover of the Offer to Purchase, as calculated by the Dealer Managers (as defined below) at 10:00 a.m. New York City time, on May 21, 2026 (such time and date, the “Price Determination Date”). Because the maximum combined aggregate purchase price, excluding accrued and unpaid interest, of the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Time is expected to exceed the Maximum Tender Amount, Kraft Heinz expects to accept for purchase Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in accordance with the Acceptance Priority Levels set forth in the table above. If the aggregate purchase price, excluding accrued and unpaid interest, of the Notes that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Time is greater than the Maximum Tender Amount, the Notes of the Series, the acceptance of which would result in the Maximum Tender Amount being exceeded, will be accepted for purchase on a prorated basis in accordance with the terms set forth in the Offer to Purchase. The Issuer will not accept for purchase any Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time. Notes tendered and not accepted for purchase will be promptly returned or credited to the applicable Holder’s account. The Tender Offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 5, 2026, unless extended with respect to a Series of Notes (such time and date, as they may be extended, the “Expiration Time”) or earlier terminated as described in the Offer to Purchase.

Subject to applicable law, the Issuer has reserved the right, in its sole discretion, to at any time (i) waive any and all conditions to the Tender Offer, including the satisfaction of Financing Condition, (ii) extend, terminate, or withdraw the Tender Offer, (iii) increase or waive the Maximum Tender Amount, with or without extending the Withdrawal Date (as defined below), or (iv) otherwise amend the Tender Offer in any respect. The Tender Offer will expire at 5:00 p.m. New York City time, on June 5, 2026, unless extended with respect to a Series of Notes (such time and date, as they may be extended, the “Expiration Time”) or earlier terminated as described in the Offer to Purchase. Notes tendered at or prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time, on May 20, 2026 (such date and time, as the same may be extended, the “Withdrawal Date”) may be validly withdrawn at any time at or prior to the Withdrawal Date, but not thereafter, except in certain limited circumstances where the Issuer determines that additional withdrawal rights are required by law. Holders are urged to read the Offer to Purchase carefully before making any decision with respect to the Tender Offer. Holders who validly tender and do not validly withdraw their Notes at or prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time, on May 20, 2026, unless extended with respect to any Series of Notes (such date and time, as the same may be extended, the “Early Tender Time”) or earlier terminated by the Issuer, will be eligible to receive the applicable Total Consideration, which includes the applicable Early Tender Premium as set forth in the table above. The applicable Total Consideration for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase will be determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase by reference to the Fixed Spread for the applicable Series specified on the front cover of the Offer to Purchase over the applicable Reference Yield based on the bid-side price of the applicable Reference Treasury Security specified on the front cover of the Offer to Purchase, as calculated by the Dealer Managers (as defined below) at 10:00 a.m. New York City time, on May 21, 2026 (subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, such time and date, as the same may be extended the “Price Determination Date”). Holders who validly tender their Notes after the Early Tender Time and at or prior to the Expiration Time will be entitled to receive only the applicable Tender Offer Consideration, which is equal to the applicable Total Consideration minus the applicable Early Tender Premium. For Notes validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Time, and not subsequently validly withdrawn and that are accepted for purchase, the Issuer has the option for settlement to occur on the Early Settlement Date, which is expected to be May 26, 2026, the third business day after the Early Tender Time. In the event the Issuer chooses to have an Early Settlement Date, settlement for Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Time, but at or prior to the Expiration Time, is expected to occur on June 9, 2026, the second business day following the Expiration Time, unless extended. In addition to the Total Consideration or the Tender Offer Consideration, as applicable, all Notes accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer will on the Early Settlement Date or the Final Settlement Date, as applicable, also receive accrued and unpaid interest in respect of such Notes from the most recent applicable interest payment date to, but excluding, the applicable Settlement Date. Subject to the Maximum Tender Amount, the application of the Acceptance Priority Levels, and the other terms and conditions described in the Offer to Purchase, including the Financing Condition, the Issuer intends to accept for purchase all Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Expiration Time. However, if the Tender Offer is fully subscribed as of the Early Tender Time, Holders who validly tender their Notes after the Early Tender Time but at or prior to the Expiration Time will not have any of their Notes accepted for purchase. Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Time will be accepted for purchase in priority to the Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Time and at or prior to the Expiration Time, even if such Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Time and at or prior to the Expiration Time have a higher Acceptance Priority Level than the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Time. As a result, each Holder who validly tenders Notes pursuant to the Tender Offer may have a portion of its Notes returned to it, and the amount of Notes returned will depend on the level of participation of Holders in the Tender Offer. The Tender Offer may be subject to proration if the aggregate purchase price (excluding accrued and unpaid interest) of the Notes that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn is greater than the Maximum Tender Amount. The Issuer reserves the right, subject to applicable law, but is under no obligation, to increase or waive the Maximum Tender Amount, in its sole discretion, with or without extending the Withdrawal Date. No assurance can be given that the Issuer will increase or waive the Maximum Tender Amount. Kraft Heinz has engaged BofA Securities, Inc. (“BofA Securities”), Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (“Citigroup”), Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (“Deutsche Bank Securities”) and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”) to act as dealer managers (collectively, the “Dealer Managers”) in connection with the Tender Offer and has appointed Global Bondholder Services Corporation to serve as the Tender Agent and Information Agent for the Tender Offer. Copies of the Offer to Purchase are available at https://www.gbsc-usa.com/kraftheinzcompany/ or by contacting Global Bondholder Services Corporation via telephone at (855) 654-2015 (toll free) or (212) 430-3774 (for banks and brokers).

Kraft Heinz (KHC) shares rise after earnings beat and stronger-than-expected revenueMay 6, 2026 9:35 AM
IH Market News Kraft Heinz (NASDAQ:KHC) moved higher in premarket trading after reporting first-quarter results that came in ahead of Wall Street expectations.Adjusted earnings per share reached $0.58, beating analyst forecasts of $0.50 by $0.08.Revenue totaled $6.05 billion, topping consensus estimates of $5.88 billion and marking a 0.8% increase from $6 billion in the same period last year. Organic sales slip as volume pressures persist Organic net sales declined 0.4% year over year during the quarter.The decrease was mainly driven by a 1.2 percentage point decline in volume and product mix, which outweighed a 0.8 percentage point increase from pricing.Management said weaker performance in coffee, cold cuts and operations in Indonesia weighed on volumes, although some of the impact was offset by favorable timing related to the Easter holiday. Higher costs pressure profitability Adjusted operating income fell 11.8% to $1.1 billion.The decline was largely linked to increased advertising spending as well as inflationary pressures tied to manufacturing and logistics costs, which exceeded the benefits from efficiency initiatives.Shares rose 3.6% following the earnings release. CEO highlights improving momentum “Our first quarter results demonstrate steady progress, and I am encouraged by the early signs of momentum we’re building,” said Steve Cahillane, CEO of Kraft Heinz.“The investments we made in 2025 are now driving early traction, with improving market share trends, particularly within must-win parts of our portfolio like Taste Elevation.” Company maintains full-year outlook For fiscal 2026, Kraft Heinz reaffirmed its guidance and continues to expect adjusted earnings per share between $1.98 and $2.10.The midpoint of $2.04 matched analyst expectations.The company also forecast a decline in organic net sales of between 1.5% and 3.5% compared with the prior year, including an estimated 100 basis point impact from additional SNAP-related headwinds.Kraft Heinz stock price Original: Kraft Heinz (KHC) shares rise after earnings beat and stronger-than-expected revenue

Ore-Ida Introduces “Ore-Ida or Nothing”, New Creative Platform Celebrating its Legacy as the Inventor of Tater TotsApril 14, 2026 6:00 AM
Business Wire
New campaign starring Keegan-Michael Key proves nothing beats the original, so why settle for an imi-tater?


Today, Ore-Ida, the inventor of Tater Tots, announces “Ore-Ida or Nothing,” a new creative platform reinforcing the brand’s legacy of innovation and unbeatable quality. Brought to life through a new campaign starring Keegan-Michael Key, the platform celebrates a simple truth that Ore-Ida has been proving for over 70 years: when it comes to potatoes, nothing beats the original.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260414902948/en/Ore-Ida Introduces “Ore-Ida or Nothing”, New Creative Platform Celebrating its Legacy as the Inventor of Tater Tots
Founded in 1952, Ore-Ida turns potatoes grown in Oregon and Idaho into simple, flavorful favorites that make ordinary meals more memorable. The brand’s founders, the Grigg brothers, invented Tater Tots by repurposing the remaining potato pieces from French fry production – turning what was left over into one of Ore-Ida's most iconic creations. Today, as the number one branded leader in frozen potatoes, Ore-Ida continues to define and push the category forward.


“As the inventor of Tater Tots, we’ve spent decades setting the standard for what great potatoes should taste like,” said Claire Lukaszewski, Senior Brand Manager, Ore-Ida. “With ‘Ore-Ida or Nothing,’ we’re reminding consumers of something we can say with confidence: Ore-Ida out potatoes all other potatoes. There’s a difference you can taste - and it starts with the original.”


The first campaign within the new platform, “imi-taters”, stars Keegan-Michael Key who appears as himself alongside a lineup of exaggerated, over-the-top imitation characters - or “imi-taters” - each attempting, and failing, to replicate the original. Key plays a full cast of distinct personas, including Keegan Seven Seas; a grizzled sea captain, Keegan Cycle Key; a hardcore fitness instructor, and @Keegan-Michael Yeet; a Gen Z influencer. Through humor and performance, the campaign underscores that while others may try, nothing matches the crispy-outside, fluffy-inside taste of Ore-Ida Tater Tots.


“This campaign allowed me to do what I love most - dive in and create some really fun characters. And it all comes back to a pretty simple idea,” said Keegan-Michael Key, “Which is- that you can try to copy something great, but there’s always something just a little… off. That’s what made creating these ‘imi-taters’ so fun. They can come close, but are never as good as the original, which is exactly what makes Ore-Ida stand out.”


Ahead of the launch, fans got an early glimpse when Key was spotted behind home plate at a New York Yankees game - but he wasn’t alone. Surrounded by a lineup of nearly identical imitators, the moment sparked curiosity among fans both in-stadium and watching from home, blurring the line between real and imitation.


Anchored by the brand’s largest marketing investment to date, the fully integrated campaign, developed in partnership with Rethink, features 12 unique spots and will run across TV, online and social.

The Best Reservation in Town is Now at Home with All-New Kraft Mac & Cheese Restaurant EditionApril 13, 2026 6:00 AM
Business Wire
Three elevated varieties deliver restaurant-style taste made in minutes at home


Today, Kraft Mac & Cheese is serving up its first-ever lineup inspired by the elevated flavors of restaurant-style mac and cheese. Introducing: Kraft Mac & Cheese Restaurant Edition. As more people look to cut back on dining out 1 without sacrificing the elevated flavors they crave, Restaurant Edition gives home cooks of all experience levels the power to create their restaurant favorites at home with new bold flavors, premium cheeses, and new pasta varieties.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260413898777/en/The Best Reservation in Town is Now at Home with All-New Kraft Mac & Cheese Restaurant Edition
At a time when consumers are seeking sophisticated meals at home2, Restaurant Edition allows you to explore elevated cuisines without compromising on cook time or price3. The new lineup offers quality at-home mac and cheese that is convenient, deliciously affordable, with the same familiar prep of the classic blue box: just add milk and butter. Restaurant Edition is meant to mirror restaurant-style mac and cheese in all facets but one: price. Offering 30 percent more food in each box versus the classic blue box, Restaurant Edition comfortably feeds a family of four for less than $1 per serving4.


Available in three varieties including Parmesan Pesto, Romano Cacio e Pepe, and Monterey Jack Caramelized Onion, Restaurant Edition features 10g of protein in each serving along with real, premium cheeses and unique pasta shapes crafted from a durum wheat semolina blend for perfectly al dente pasta. Each flavor was thoughtfully developed by Kraft Mac & Cheese’s culinary specialists and intentionally pairs distinctive cheeses with complementary pasta shapes for perfectly coated, flavorful bites that mimic the dine-out experience.


"Restaurant Edition brings quality, affordability, and the experience of dining out together – all without leaving home," said Sara Roashan, Associate Director of Mac & Cheese Innovation at Kraft Heinz. "Consumers crave restaurant-inspired flavors, and we knew Kraft Mac & Cheese could make them more accessible without demanding a high level of kitchen expertise. You can treat yourself, your family, or host a dinner party with the simple Kraft Mac & Cheese format you know and love."


After testing more than 40 flavors, three standout offerings emerged – each designed to balance bold taste with the familiarity of Kraft Mac & Cheese. The flavors were intuitively paired, and the pasta was developed to better cling to the cheesy sauce:



Parmesan Pesto is a fresh-from-the-pantry dish that balances herbaceous basil pesto with sharp Parmesan cheese and Gemelli noodles



Romano Cacio e Pepe delivers peppery richness and Pecorino Romano cheese with Pipette noodles



Monterey Jack Caramelized Onion – a first-to-market mac & cheese flavor – balances the savory taste of caramelized onion with milky, mellow Monterey Jack cheese and Cavatappi noodles



Kraft Mac & Cheese Restaurant Edition rolls out nationwide this month for a starting price of $3.49 per 9.5 oz box.

Taber (Alberta) couronnée la grande gagnante de Kraft Hockeyville 2026April 4, 2026 9:15 PM
Business Wire
La ville recevra 250?000 $ pour des améliorations à son aréna et accueillera un match de présaison de la LNH®, alors que la municipalité finaliste, Tumbler Ridge, en Colombie-Britannique, recevra 100?000 $


Les deux communautés recevront également 10 000 $ en nouvel équipement de hockey de la part du programme Buts et rêves de l’AJLNH et du Fonds de croissance de l’industrie de la LNH/AJLNH.


Kraft Heinz, en partenariat avec la Ligue nationale de hockey (LNH®) et l’Association des joueurs de la Ligue nationale de hockey (AJLNH), est heureuse d’annoncer que Taber, en Alberta, a été nommée la grande gagnante de Kraft Hockeyville 2026.

Ce communiqué de presse contient des éléments multimédias. Voir le communiqué complet ici : https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260404819426/fr/Taber (Alberta) couronnée la grande gagnante de Kraft Hockeyville 2026
Taber, en Alberta, recevra 250?000 $ pour des améliorations à son aréna, en plus de la possibilité d’accueillir un match de présaison de la LNH® dans sa communauté à l’automne 2027. La municipalité finaliste, Tumbler Ridge, en Colombie-Britannique, recevra 100?000 $ pour des améliorations à son aréna, soit quatre fois plus que le prix remis aux finalistes lors des années précédentes, dans le cadre de l’expansion exceptionnelle du programme pour souligner son 20e anniversaire. Au total, Kraft Hockeyville 2026 représente plus d’un million de dollars en prix : le plus gros investissement de l’histoire du programme. Taber, en Alberta, et Tumbler Ridge, en Colombie-Britannique, ainsi que les 11 finalistes provinciaux et territoriaux, recevront également 10?000 dollars en équipement de hockey neuf pour aider plus d’enfants à pratiquer ce sport, gracieuseté du programme Buts et rêves de l’AJLNH et du Fonds de croissance de l’industrie de la LNH/AJLNH.


À la suite d’un vote national, les Canadiens ont choisi Taber, en Alberta, comme grande gagnante de Kraft Hockeyville 2026. La ville a remporté ce titre grâce à son histoire inspirante de résilience et de fierté, ainsi qu’au rôle central que joue son aréna dans le rassemblement de la communauté. Le commentateur sportif Ron MacLean et le commissaire de la LNH Gary Bettman ont annoncé la nouvelle lors de la diffusion de La Soirée du hockey au Canada sur Sportsnet en début de soirée.


Depuis plus de 50 ans, le Taber Community Centre est au cœur de la vie locale. L’aréna accueille les équipes comme les Oil Kings et les AA Golden Suns, en plus d’être un lieu central pour les matchs, tournois et événements locaux. À la suite d’une explosion survenue en décembre 2025 qui a rendu l’aréna inutilisable, la communauté a perdu un lieu de rassemblement essentiel. Remporter Kraft Hockeyville 2026 permettra de soutenir des réparations importantes et aidera à restaurer l’aréna pour qu’il redevienne cet espace où la communauté pourra se rassembler à nouveau.


«?Félicitations à Taber, en Alberta, pour avoir été couronnée la grande gagnante de Kraft Hockeyville 2026, ainsi qu’aux tout premiers gagnants provinciaux et territoriaux de cette année?», affirme Simon Laroche, président de Kraft Heinz Canada. «?En cette 20e année historique, nous avons pu constater à quel point les arénas locaux sont essentiels, non seulement comme lieux pour jouer, mais aussi comme le cœur des communautés à travers le pays. Des témoignages de résilience aux moments de partage, les communautés de cette année nous ont rappelé que le hockey est bien plus qu’un simple sport : c’est d’être là les uns pour les autres. Nous sommes fiers de contribuer à insuffler cet esprit dans les arénas partout au Canada.?»


L’annonce de la communauté gagnante de 2026 marque officiellement la fin de l’année du 20e anniversaire du programme Kraft Hockeyville. Cette édition a vu l’introduction d’une toute nouvelle phase des «?13 meilleurs?», attribuant un financement à une communauté de chaque province et territoire, ce qui veut dire que plus de communautés canadiennes que jamais ont pu bénéficier d’un financement essentiel pour des améliorations à leurs arénas. Des communautés d’un océan à l’autre se sont mobilisées avec passion, soulignant le rôle essentiel que jouent les arénas locaux pour rassembler les gens.


Kraft Hockeyville poursuivra son engagement à soutenir les communautés canadiennes et les arénas qui les rassemblent. Pour en savoir plus sur le programme, veuillez visiter krafthockeyville.ca.


À propos de Kraft Heinz Canada


L’héritage de Kraft Heinz Canada remonte à plus d’un siècle, en 1903, lorsque James Lewis Kraft, de Stevensville, en Ontario, a commencé à vendre du fromage à partir d’une calèche. Heinz Canada a ensuite été fondée en 1909 à Leamington, en Ontario, avec comme premiers produits des cornichons provenant de producteurs locaux. À la suite de la fusion en 2015 entre Kraft Foods Group et H.J. Heinz Company, Kraft Heinz Canada est devenue une filiale de la nouvelle société Kraft Heinz Company (NASDAQ : KHC). Devenue la deuxième plus grande entreprise d’aliments et de boissons au pays, les produits emblématiques de Kraft Heinz Canada, comme le beurre d’arachide Kraft, le ketchup Heinz, le KD, le fromage à la crème Philadelphia, la vinaigrette Renées, le Jell-O, la sauce Classico, le Kool-Aid et le café Maxwell House, se retrouvent dans plus de 97 pour cent des foyers canadiens.


Kraft Heinz Canada mène une transformation inspirée par la mission globale de Kraft Heinz, «?Rendre la vie délicieuse?», en créant des moments mémorables dans les communautés grâce à des initiatives locales et au programme marquant que nous célébrons ici, Kraft Hockeyville, tout en soutenant les banques alimentaires à travers le Canada grâce au Projet Garde-manger de Kraft Heinz.

Taber, AB Named Winner of Kraft Hockeyville 2026April 4, 2026 9:15 PM
Business Wire
Town will receive $250,000 for rink upgrades and host an NHL® Pre-Season game, with the runner-up, Tumbler Ridge, BC, receiving $100,000


Both communities will also receive $10,000 in new hockey equipment from NHLPA Goals & Dreams and the NHL/NHLPA Industry Growth Fund


Kraft Heinz, in partnership with the National Hockey League (NHL®) and the National Hockey League Players' Association (NHLPA), is pleased to announce that Taber, Alberta has been named the winner of Kraft Hockeyville 2026.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260404356082/en/Taber, AB named winner of Kraft Hockeyville 2026
Taber, Alberta will receive $250,000 for rink upgrades, plus the opportunity to host an NHL® Pre-Season game for their community in the fall of 2027. The runner-up, Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia, will be awarded $100,000 for rink upgrades—four times the runner-up prize of previous years, as part of the initiative’s expanded prize pool to mark its 20th anniversary year. In total, Kraft Hockeyville 2026 represents more than $1 million in total prizing: the largest investment in program history. Both Taber, Alberta and Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia, along with the 11 Provincial and Territorial finalists, will also receive $10,000 in brand-new hockey equipment to help more children play the game, courtesy of NHLPA Goals & Dreams and the NHL/NHLPA Industry Growth Fund.


Through a nationwide vote, Canadians selected Taber, Alberta, as the winner of Kraft Hockeyville 2026, with the town earning the title for its powerful story of resilience, pride, and the central role its rink plays in bringing the community together. Sportscaster Ron MacLean and NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman announced the news on Sportsnet’s Hockey Night in Canada broadcast earlier tonight.


For more than 50 years, the Taber Community Centre has been a cornerstone of local life. The arena is home to teams like the Oil Kings and AA Golden Suns, and is a hub for games, tournaments and local events. After a December 2025 explosion left the arena inoperable, the town lost a vital gathering place. Winning Kraft Hockeyville 2026 will support critical repairs and help restore the rink as a space where the community can come together once again.


“Congratulations to Taber, Alberta on being named the winner of Kraft Hockeyville 2026, and to all of this year’s first-ever Provincial & Territorial Winners,” said Simon Laroche, President, Kraft Heinz Canada. “For more than a century, Kraft Heinz has been enriching Canadians’ lives through food and the moments of connection it brings—both at the table and in communities across the country. Now, in our milestone 20th anniversary year of Kraft Hockeyville, we’ve seen just how deeply local rinks matter—not only as places to play, but as the heart of communities. From stories of resilience to moments of connection, this year’s communities reminded us that hockey is about far more than the game—it’s about showing up for one another. We’re proud to help bring this spirit to life in rinks across Canada.”


The announcement of the 2026 winning community officially concludes the 20th-anniversary year of the Kraft Hockeyville program. This year introduced an all-new Top 13 phase, awarding funding to one community from every province and territory—meaning more Canadian communities than ever before could benefit from critical rink upgrade funding. Communities from coast to coast to coast showed up in full force, reinforcing the vital role of local rinks.

Kraft Heinz Inks Breakthrough Deal With National Football League as First-Ever Condiment PartnerMarch 18, 2026 11:46 AM

Five-Year Global Partnership Brings Together Kraft Heinz’s Vast Portfolio of Iconic Brands With America’s Favorite Sport to Drive Fan Engagement and Food Experiences


The Kraft Heinz Company (NASDAQ: KHC) and the National Football League today announced a five-year global strategic partnership, uniting one of the world’s most beloved food portfolios with the most-watched sports league in the United States.


As the NFL’s first-ever global condiment partner, Kraft Heinz will bring its iconic portfolio of household brands to millions of fans across the globe. The partnership will unlock premium stadium and gameday visibility, integrated co-branded marketing and limited-edition packaging and immersive retail activations designed to connect with millions of sports fans around the world.


The partnership brings a range of Kraft Heinz favorites — including icons like HEINZ, KRAFT, VELVEETA, PHILADELPHIA, KRAFT MAC & CHEESE, PRIMAL KITCHEN, CLASSICO, A1 and many more — directly into the heart of football’s most culturally relevant moments. From the Super Bowl to NFL Kickoff to Thanksgiving, the partnership will drive incremental retail opportunities and expand “Away From Home” food service presence during high impact consumption occasions.


The partnership also accelerates the NFL’s continued international expansion, with Kraft Heinz gaining access to select overseas games. Together, the NFL and Kraft Heinz will deliver exclusive fan experiences and unforgettable gameday celebrations centered around the foods fans already love.


“We couldn’t be more excited to kick off this breakthrough partnership with the NFL, as our portfolio of iconic brands are a regular part of the gameday experience that brings people together,” said Todd Kaplan, Chief Marketing Officer, North America at Kraft Heinz. “The new partnership will help us scale, connect and amplify our seat at the table with our fans and customers. From stronger in-store presence and product innovation to deep and meaningful engagement with our consumers and their favorite teams, we look forward to working with the NFL to create unforgettable and delicious gameday moments for fans all around the world.”


The partnership reflects Kraft Heinz’s broader ambition to meet consumers wherever culture is happening — at the intersection of food, sports and entertainment. With the NFL ranked as the number one sports property in the U.S. with over 200 million fans and the most popular sports league among Gen Z, the partnership gives Kraft Heinz direct access to the cultural eating moments that matter to them most.


“Kraft Heinz is an iconic brand with products that are fixtures at kitchen tables, tailgates and beyond,” said NFL Senior Vice President of Global Partnerships Tracie Rodburg. “This partnership, including its focus on global growth and flag football, is a win for the league and our fans.”


The partnership will officially begin in April at the upcoming NFL Draft, which is taking place in Pittsburgh, the birthplace of HEINZ. As the first activation in this partnership, HEINZ will be surprising and delighting fans in unexpected ways throughout Draft week.

The Best Thing Ever Just Got Better: Kraft Mac & Cheese Unveils PowerMac, Offering Added Protein and Fiber with the Same Cheesiness Fans Know and LoveMarch 17, 2026 6:00 AM
Business Wire
PowerMac joins the brand’s classic blue box lineup in two flavors, Original and White Cheddar, delivering more protein and fiber at an affordable price


Today, Kraft Mac & Cheese introduces PowerMac, a brand-new innovation delivering 17g of protein and 6g of fiber per serving. Kraft is known for bringing two icons – macaroni & cheese – together and making them the Best Thing Ever. Now, America's #1 mac & cheese1 is uniting the benefits consumers are seeking with the same cheesiness fans know and love. PowerMac expands the blue box lineup with added nutrition while staying true to the taste, convenience and affordability that has made Kraft Mac & Cheese a trusted household favorite for nearly 90 years.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260317869993/en/The Best Thing Ever Just Got Better: Kraft Mac & Cheese Unveils PowerMac, Offering Added Protein and Fiber with the Same Cheesiness Fans Know and Love
With more than half of consumers looking to add more protein and fiber to their diets2, better-for-you mac and cheese offerings continue to grow – significantly outpacing the broader mac and cheese category. However, better-for-your mac and cheese consumers are not purchasing as frequently as the rest of the category consumer. By combining the trusted convenience fans expect from Kraft Mac & Cheese with protein, fiber and more food at a more accessible price than other offerings in the category, PowerMac meets the growing demand for a better-tasting better-for-you option that buyers will reach for time and time again.


Nearly a year in the making, Kraft Mac & Cheese took a deliberate approach to entering the protein and fiber space. The brand combined PowerMac’s proprietary protein-and fiber-enriched pasta with its iconic cheese powder to meet the high standard fans expect from the #1 brand in the category. The result is a creamy, craveable mac that has the same cheese taste you know and love.


"Kraft Mac & Cheese has been setting the pace in category innovation with new flavors and formats, and we’re excited to extend that work with the introduction of PowerMac,” said Ashleigh Edmonds, Senior Director of Marketing for Kraft Mac & Cheese. “As a consumer-obsessed brand, we developed PowerMac for consumers who want more from their everyday meals without compromising on great taste. PowerMac delivers the benefits fans are craving in a way that only Kraft Mac & Cheese can; with a product that outperforms similar offerings in taste, while offering more food at a better price.”


Available in two flavors, Original and White Cheddar, PowerMac will roll out at major retailers nationwide in April 2026 for $2.99 per 7.25 oz box. It will also expand to other formats later this year, making it even more convenient for fans to enjoy PowerMac.

Kraft Hockeyville Unveils 13 Provincial & Territorial Winners in 20th Anniversary YearMarch 14, 2026 7:05 PM

In a defining moment for community hockey in Canada, Kraft Heinz, in partnership with the National Hockey League (NHL®) and the National Hockey League Players’ Association (NHLPA), today announced the very first 13 Provincial & Territorial Winners of Kraft Hockeyville 2026—a historic milestone that extends the program’s impact from coast to coast to coast.

Futures tumble and oil surges as Middle East conflict intensifies — what’s driving markets: Dow Jones, S&P, Nasdaq, Wall Street FuturesMarch 2, 2026 5:35 AM
IH Market News
U.S. equity futures pointed to steep losses after large-scale airstrikes carried out by the United States and Israel against Iran heightened fears of a broader regional conflict. The escalation pushed oil prices sharply higher and triggered a flight from risk assets toward traditional safe havens such as gold. Asian equities also declined, pressured by uncertainty surrounding artificial intelligence developments and their implications for the technology sector.



Futures slide



U.S. stock futures dropped sharply on Monday as investors assessed the potential fallout from the joint U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran and the risk that tensions could spread across the wider Middle East.As of 02:54 ET, Dow futures were down 733 points, or 1.5%, S&P 500 futures had fallen 104 points, also 1.5%, and Nasdaq 100 futures declined 463 points, or 1.9%.The coordinated strikes on Saturday targeted multiple locations across Iran and reportedly killed several senior Iranian officials, including Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. U.S. President Donald Trump has called on Iranian opposition groups to overthrow the country’s long-standing governing system, although many senior U.S. officials remain doubtful that regime change is imminent, according to Reuters.Questions persist over how long Washington intends to remain engaged militarily. Trump told the New York Times that operations could continue for “four to five weeks.” He declined to outline a specific transition plan for Iran, stating he has “three very good choices” to lead the country but “won’t be revealing them now,” the New York Times reported.Iran responded with retaliatory strikes targeting locations across the Middle East, including energy-producing Gulf states. Media reports citing U.S. Central Command said three American service members were killed and five seriously injured, while Trump warned that additional casualties could occur.Signs of widening hostilities emerged as Israel struck Hezbollah targets in Lebanon, and the Wall Street Journal reported that at least one U.S. aircraft had been shot down in Kuwait.



Oil prices jump on supply fears



Oil markets rallied sharply following the escalation, amid concerns that Iran could attempt to block the Strait of Hormuz — a vital shipping route responsible for roughly one-fifth of global oil supply and about 20% of worldwide liquefied natural gas flows.By 03:24 ET, Brent crude futures had risen 10% to $80.14 per barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude futures gained 9.3% to $73.26 per barrel.Although Tehran has not formally closed the strait, Reuters reported that shipping data shows tankers beginning to accumulate on both sides as operators grow wary of potential attacks or face difficulties securing insurance coverage.A sustained rise in oil prices could pose risks to the global economy by reigniting inflation pressures and weighing on consumer demand. If the conflict continues, prices for fuel, electricity and other energy-linked goods could increase further.“How sustained any spikes are depends on how long attacks persist,” analysts at ING said in a note to clients.“While it is still very early days and the situation is developing at a fast pace, it does not appear that this military action will be quick and short-lived,” like previous U.S.-Israeli attacks on Iran last year, they added.Some analysts cited by the New York Times noted that, despite the surge, oil prices remain within historical ranges. A prolonged global supply surplus is expected to partially offset price pressures, supported further by OPEC+ plans announced Sunday to modestly increase production next month.



Gold rallies as investors seek safety



Gold prices climbed as investors moved capital into safe-haven assets during the escalation.Spot gold rose 2.3% to $5,402.31 per ounce by 03:44 ET, while U.S. gold futures gained 3.3% to $5,418.09.“A regional spillover or disruption to energy supplies would materially boost gold through higher oil prices, increased inflation expectations and contained real yields,” the ING analysts said.Beyond geopolitical developments, markets are also preparing for a busy week of economic releases and corporate earnings. The February U.S. jobs report is due alongside results from Broadcom and Target during the first week of March.



Asian equities decline



Asian markets also moved lower, taking cues from Wall Street’s weaker finish on Friday as concerns around artificial intelligence and interest rate expectations weighed on U.S. technology stocks.Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index and Japan’s Nikkei 225 were among the region’s worst performers, falling 2.1% and 1.4%, respectively.In addition to geopolitical concerns, technology shares faced selling pressure amid uncertainty over how AI developments may reshape competitive dynamics within the sector. Software companies in particular experienced steep declines in February due to worries about intensified competition from AI-driven tools.



Berkshire Hathaway profit declines



Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.B) reported on Saturday that fourth-quarter operating profit fell nearly 30% year on year, largely due to weaker insurance underwriting performance.In Warren Buffett’s final quarter as chief executive officer, insurance underwriting earnings more than halved to $1.56 billion, while insurance investment income declined nearly 25% to $3.07 billion.The conglomerate also recorded $4.5 billion in impairment charges related to investments in Kraft Heinz (NASDAQ:KHC) and Occidental Petroleum Corporation (NYSE:OXY).Operating earnings totaled $10.2 billion for the quarter ended December 31, compared with nearly $14.53 billion a year earlier.The results included the first shareholder letter written by Greg Abel, Buffett’s chosen successor, who acknowledged that Buffett — long regarded as one of the world’s most influential investors — was “obviously a hard act to follow.”Berkshire Hathaway stock priceKraft Heinz stock priceOccidental Petroleum stock price

Format Innovation Reshapes a $438B Functional MarketFebruary 13, 2026 10:50 AM
PR Newswire (US)

ISSUED ON BEHALF OF DOSEOLOGY SCIENCES INC.VANCOUVER, BC, Feb. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- USANewsGroup.com News Commentary – The global functional food and beverage market is projected to reach approximately $438 billion in 2026, expanding at a 10.65% annual rate as consumers shift away from conventional delivery formats toward targeted, portable alternatives[1]. That structural pivot is accelerating across the oral pouch category specifically, where nicotine-free and caffeine-based formats are riding a broader modern oral segment forecast to exceed $25 billion by 2030[2]. Five companies are positioning around this format-driven thesis: Doseology Sciences Inc. (CSE: MOOD) (OTCPK:DOSEF) (FSE: VU70), Kraft Heinz (NASDAQ: KHC), Tilray Brands (NASDAQ: TLRY), Cronos Group (NASDAQ: CRON), and USANA Health Sciences (NYSE: USNA).







Industry analysts project the functional beverage segment alone will climb past $164 billion this year, with energy drinks and wellness-oriented products commanding the fastest growth lanes[3]. Brands that pair clean-label formulation with novel packaging and direct-to-consumer testing are capturing disproportionate shelf velocity, making product format innovation the primary value driver of the 2026 consumer cycle[4].Doseology Sciences Inc. (CSE: MOOD) (OTCPK:DOSEF) (FSE: VU70), recently launched pilot production of caffeine-based energy pouches in January 2026, marking the Feed That Brain brand's entry into the fast-expanding oral pouch category. Based in Kelowna, British Columbia, Doseology Sciences is producing nicotine-free pouches that deliver measured caffeine doses in a compact, portable format, drawing on the same consumer shift that turned tobacco-free nicotine pouches into a multibillion-dollar segment.The pilot pouches skip the sugar, carbonation, and liquid volume found in conventional energy drinks. A direct-to-consumer test phase is planned to collect customer feedback and operational data ahead of any broader commercial launch."This pilot reflects a disciplined and intentional approach to evaluating new product formats within our platform," said Tim Corkum, President and COO of Doseology Sciences. "Feed That Brain brings a strong foundation in functional product design, and this initiative allows us to assess caffeine-based, pouch-format energy delivery under a measured and compliant framework."The energy pouch program grew out of Doseology Sciences' August 2025 acquisition of the Feed That Brain brand for $400,000, paid entirely through stock issuance. Feed That Brain, a Toronto-based cognitive health label founded by Forbes-recognized entrepreneur Rena R. Dempsey, built its reputation on functional gummies and nootropic supplements designed to support mental performance.Doseology Sciences also secured Joseph Mimran as Strategic Advisor under a three-year agreement valued at $400,000 in restricted share units. Mimran co-founded Alfred Sung, founded Club Monaco (later acquired by Ralph Lauren), and created the Joe Fresh retail brand. He cited the company's product development process and attention to regulatory compliance as reasons for joining.Two large market tailwinds support the strategy. Grand View Research projects the global energy drinks market will grow from $79.4 billion in 2024 to $125.1 billion by 2030. The nicotine pouch segment is forecast to climb from $5.4 billion in 2024 to over $25 billion by 2030, reflecting a 29.6% annual growth rate. Rising consumer concern over sugar intake and beverage overconsumption continues to push demand toward alternative caffeine delivery methods.Doseology Sciences currently distributes Gummies and Collagen products under the Feed That Brain brand across close to 500 Canadian retail locations. Its U.S. subsidiary, Doseology USA Inc., established earlier this year, is working on pouches that blend caffeine with nootropics and adaptogens. The leadership team now includes CEO Chris Jackson, President and COO Tim Corkum, and Strategic Go-to-Market Advisor Patrick Sills.CONTINUED... Read this and more news for Doseology Sciences at:

Kraft Heinz slides as 2026 outlook disappoints despite Q4 earnings beatFebruary 11, 2026 10:40 AM
IH Market News
Kraft Heinz (NASDAQ:KHC) shares dropped 6.3% on Wednesday after the packaged food maker topped fourth-quarter profit expectations but delivered a weaker-than-anticipated outlook for fiscal 2026, alongside plans for a $600 million push to reignite growth.For the fourth quarter, the company posted adjusted earnings of $0.67 per share, ahead of the $0.61 analysts had forecast. Revenue, however, came in at $6.35 billion, just shy of the $6.38 billion consensus and down 3.4% from a year earlier. Organic net sales fell 4.2%, as a 4.7 percentage point decline in volume and mix more than offset a modest 0.5 percentage point increase from pricing.The market reaction centered on the company’s forward guidance. Kraft Heinz expects fiscal 2026 earnings per share between $1.98 and $2.10, significantly below the $2.49 analysts were projecting. It also anticipates organic net sales will decline by 1.5% to 3.5% compared with 2025.“When I decided to join Kraft Heinz, I knew that this was an exciting opportunity to contemporize iconic brands, better serve consumers and customers, and build meaningful shareholder value,” said CEO Steve Cahillane. “My number one priority is returning the business to profitable growth, which will require ensuring all resources are fully focused on the execution of our operating plan.”Management said it will halt efforts tied to a previously proposed separation and instead allocate $600 million toward marketing, sales capabilities, research and development, product enhancements, and selective pricing actions. The company expects these investments to weigh on profitability, guiding for a 14% to 18% drop in constant-currency adjusted operating income in 2026.For full-year 2025, net sales declined 3.5% to $24.9 billion, while organic net sales were down 3.4%. Adjusted operating income fell 11.5% to $4.7 billion, and adjusted earnings per share decreased 15% to $2.60.Despite the softer top-line performance, Kraft Heinz generated $3.7 billion in free cash flow during 2025, a 15.9% increase year over year, and returned $2.3 billion to shareholders through dividends and share buybacks.Kraft Heinz stock price

KHC can easily be saved. The dividend needs to be eliminated. The savings from the dividend cut needs to be diverted to debt reduction. Current upper management needs to be fired. The board of directors needs to be replaced. This will create a temporary drop in the price of the stock, but confidence would be restored. This isn't rocket science. I don't know how Buffett ever thought these clowns in management could run this company.

Support caved at $28. This Pig is over. Good Luck trying to catch a falling knife.

They need to cut the dividend in half and use the proceeds to reduce debt.

Yes, very nice!

Nice earnings beat of 25.4% above projections for KHC this week. The strengthening of the balance sheet and the increasing free cash flow generation are also a very positive takeaway. Not to mention the hefty dividend which you have emphasized in the past.

A Warren Buffet company where its pays to do crime for a little fine and no jail time to fake the financials because the company can.

The agency alleges that from the last quarter of 2015 to the end of 2018, Kraft "engaged in various types of accounting misconduct" — including faking supplier contracts to get discounts that the company hadn't earned — to ultimately make their financials look better to analysts and investors.

Kraft Heinz (KHC) already had to restate its full-year and quarterly results for 2016 and 2017 after its an internal investigation following the launch of the SEC probe in 2019.

Two individuals, Kraft's former chief operating officer Eduardo Pelleissone and former chief procurement officer Klaus Hofmann, were also personally charged for alleged misconduct in the case after fabricating an estimated 59 supplier and procurement transactions, according to the SEC's complaint. They settled for $300,000 and $100,000, respectively. Hofmann will be barred from serving as an officer or director for five years.

KHC continuing to hold up quite well. KHC has quite a ways to go to get back to historic highs, but the recovery is underway here.

My account is happy...

Went very heavy into KHC in April!

Yield is down to 4.72% with KHC trading at a 52-week high this am after blowout earnings beat on both top and bottom lines. Kraft Heinz has turned the corner. And, now raising a ton of cash to pay down debt in selling off the Planters line to Hormel for $3.35 Billion cash, reducing exposure to private label competition.

5 Bargains in Berkshire's Portfolio
We think these holdings look undervalued.

To read about more than KHC, read the article at this link:

https://www.morningstar.com/articles/998412/5-bargains-in-berkshires-portfolio
Last week, Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A)/(BRK.B) released its second-quarter 13-F. Morningstar's resident Berkshire specialist, Gregg Warren, noted that the behemoth was a net seller of equities during the quarter. True, Berkshire picked up shares of Barrick Gold (GOLD) and bumped up its stakes in Liberty SiriusXM (LSXMA), Store Capital (STOR), Kroger (KR), and Suncor Energy (SU). However, each of these pickups accounts for less than 1% of Berkshire's portfolio, reminds Warren.

As for sales, Warren Buffett revealed during Berkshire's virtual annual meeting that the team had sold its entire airline stake in April. Moreover, Berkshire jettisoned its stake in Goldman Sachs (GS) and trimmed its overall exposure to financials stocks during the quarter.

Given the market's exceptional bounceback during the second quarter, bargains are less bountiful than they were three months ago. That said, here's a look at a handful of stocks in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio that are undervalued by our standards.

Kraft Heinz Company (KHC)
Morningstar Rating (as of Aug. 18, 2020): 4 stars
Morningstar Economic Moat Rating: None

"Five years have passed since the marriage between Kraft and Heinz. Although the initial motivation of the tie-up was enhanced profitability (which ultimately impaired its competition position), we believe the firm is charting a new course following the appointment of CEO Miguel Patricio in 2019. Patricio has yet to make his strategic agenda public, but we don't believe that implies Kraft Heinz has pushed pause on efforts to steady its ship.

"We still expect the strategic playbook to be anchored in pursuing sustainable efficiencies versus blindly rooting out costs as the company elevates brand spending (marketing and product innovation) and enhances its capabilities (category management and e-commerce). We continue to expect marketing, research, and development to expand to more than 5% of sales in the aggregate over our 10-year forecast versus less than 5% the past few years.

"Packaged food players as well as grocery stores have suggested that consumers have increasingly sought out trusted brands (like those in Kraft Heinz's mix) since the onset of the pandemic, in line with the boost in household penetration and repeat purchase rates that Kraft Heinz has experienced. However, we expect the recent pace of gains prompted by COVID-19 stock-up trips will slow over the next several quarters as consumers work through their pantries and resort to away-from-home food consumption as social distancing mandates are eased.

"We don't expect Kraft Heinz to merely ride these tailwinds. Rather, we view this environment as an opportunity to pick up the pace on the change that has just gotten underway at the organization. We've been encouraged by Kraft Heinz's renewed commitment to enhance its service levels with retail customers--relationships that had been tarnished under prior leadership. This aim has gained heightened importance against the current backdrop, evidenced by the decision to focus manufacturing assets on the company's highest-turning stock-keeping units and even to enlist the help of co-manufacturers (despite the higher cost). We view this as prudent."

Summary

The doubters have been proved wrong and the Kraft and Heinz company is benefiting from improvement in both top-line and bottom-line.

The reason is not only due to COVID as evidenced by the tracker I use to analyze results of the transformation plan launched last year.

The company is also looking stronger than competitors.

I take a deep look at the challenges for the next quarter taking into consideration the very ingredients which led to an upbeat performance in the first half of the year.

KHC is undervalued when taking into consideration its ability to derive better operational margins from COVID-19.

Many were doubting that the higher consumer demand the Kraft Heinz Company (KHC) was witnessing for its products in Q1-2020 would continue in the second quarter.

This high demand in the first quarter was solely being attributed to panic-led stockpiling amid the coronavirus outbreak.

However, higher second quarter sales both in comparison to Q2-2019 and Q1-2020 figures proved that there was more to it than just stockpiling.

Also, in terms of bottom-line, there were better-than-expected EBITDA margins.

Still, despite these positives, challenges still lie ahead.

Hence, I evaluate how the action plan formulated in the third quarter of 2019 by the new management team to address marketing, supply chain and operational efficiency has delivered results and can continue to bring improvements in the second half of the year.

For this purpose, I have elaborated a strategic plan tracker.

I will also address the competitive position as well as touch upon COVID-related specific consumer patterns which can impact on growth.

To begin with, I analyze the revenues and finances.

Preliminary results of the strategic plan
The company is still amid a re-organization process as the pandemic weathers through. The COVID-induced stay-at-home phenomenon has resulted in increased demand and this has been beneficial.

However, the pandemic has also brought challenges especially in terms of supply chain. Here the operations team has worked hard to optimize manufacturing capacity to meet demand with some plants running on a 24/7 basis.

Despite their efforts, there was some loss of market share for meat and cheese products as products were not available in time.

Still, KHC managed to increase gross margins to 37% for Q2-2020, more than 4% higher compared to the previous quarter as the company was able to mitigate incremental COVID costs incurred in terms of overtime and protective equipment costs.

The company owes this success to a re-examination the stock-keeping process in the US and streamlining the complexities out of the system resulting in the route from production lines to market becoming more nimble.

Also, KHC is working hard on marketing and consumer profiling in terms of geography and demographics in order to target a more diverse population.

In this context, younger consumers with higher income levels coming from areas which were not previously indexed by KHC have been buying items like peanut butter and pasta sauce, thus providing the company with a diversification opportunity.

KHC's customer base has traditionally included more of the baby-boomer generation of shoppers.

In terms of figures, higher sales has resulted in 75% of KHC's brands being adopted by more households and also increasing repeat rate among the new buyers.

Promotional campaigns carried out during the second quarter have resulted in higher SG&A expenses compared to Q1-2020 but this was money well-spent as the revenues and profitability figures show.

Going forward, KHC plans to re-deploy more of its marketing expenses towards loyalty campaigns thus further tapping into its new base of recently acquired customers.

Also, I see more promotional activities leading to lower prices and more sales in the second half.

Good is Brewing

On the other hand, one of the headwinds is constituted by the McCafé's exit that has been underway in Canada in the first half of the year and which also began impacting US sales as from July.

Other possible headwinds going forward are incentive compensation and unfavorable commodity costs mainly to be incurred for cheese.

However on the positive side, the higher COVID-led demand seen in the first half should be maintained through aggressive marketing and the ability of the company's supply chain to channel goods more efficiently.

To this end, some of the supply chain constraints faced for meat products have already been mitigated.

Here, higher gross margins together with the fact that the company is redeploying marketing resources instead of incurring in additional recruitment should result in operational margins staying on the high side.

Moreover, to a lesser extent, foreign exchange translation which was a headwind in the first half with the strong dollar could be less of a drag in the third quarter with both the Canadian Dollar and British Pound having seen strength in international FOREX markets.

Most importantly, KHC has been able to establish a strong base from where it should not only sustain top-line growth but also maintain profitability.

Therefore, going forward, there is real possibility for the headwinds to be offset.

I now go deeper into the finances.

In this respect, as of June 30 cash available was $2.8 billion while long term debt was $28.1 billion. Now, through July, $1 billion of the 2020 debt maturities was paid with cash, reducing outstanding gross debt.

Source: SEC filings

The liquidity position is strong with no meaningful refinancing needs for the next five years and the refinancing transaction performed back in May.

KHC is reducing debt and ensuring that there is sufficient free cash flow ($2.3 billion as at June 30) to ensure dividend payments.

Debt to equity is at 58.70, the lowest among peers.

Current payout ratio is currently at 62% for a yield of 4.5% and this is the highest among competitors.

The competition
First, there seems to be a lot of outdated information when it comes to looking for KHC's competitors.

This is also the case with some commentators whose memories appear to be stuck in the past, more particularly in February of 2019 when KHC had lost the one thing for which it was prized by investors: its profit margins.

Hence, there is a general sentiment that the stock is "struggling".

However, things have now changed, and the company's operating margin is back to above the 20% mark.

That steep rise from March to June when compared to the competition shows that KHC has been able to take advantage of COVID-led opportunities in a much more efficient way.

Source: Chart built from data from SeekingAlpha

The underlying reasons for this achievement a better leverage on supply chain, higher volumes and better product mix.

Now, some may be wondering if the margins could burst through the 25% level by the end of the year as the improvements the company is bringing to its operational efficiency start to really bite.

In order to get more clarity, I go through the challenges.

The challenges
The first challenge is the favorable consumer behavior seen in the first half simply being absent in the second half of the year.

However, there are studies which indicate otherwise.

In this context, a study by restaurants.org indicates that restaurant sales continued to rise in July, but at a much slower pace.

For consumer staples plays, this means that the "favorable shift" between retail and food-service (people eating in restaurants instead of purchasing packaged food) they benefited from in the first half of the year is not completely gone.

Moreover, according to the same survey, "after the initial bounce in May and June, July's sales results are a reminder that the restaurant industry's road to recovery will be long and uneven".

Figure 7: Sales generated by eating and drinking places.



Source: Restaurants.org

Also, in the UK, one of KHC's largest international markets, restaurants were allowed to re-open on July 4, 2020 only under strict hygiene conditions to prevent a second wave of virus.

This means that while there will be a reduction in volume of good sold, the trend seen in the packaged food industry should continue to be favorable to KHC.

Now, according to another study by McKinsley, COVID-19 has disrupted the positive trend seen in small packaged food manufacturers during recent years.

The study also mentions of a more pronounced liking for conscious eating and living.

These two findings can only be beneficial to larger food manufacturers like KHC offering natural food brands.

Therefore, customer consumption pattern should continue to be favorable going forward.

Interestingly, Michael Lavery, an analyst at Piper Sandler's also expects pronounced eating-at-home trends to drive a "sustainable lift" at least into 2021.

According to him, KHC is well-positioned with a more meal-oriented product offerings and lesser food-service exposure.

Now, less food-service exposure also means less vulnerability to an economic downturn.

Also, the ability of KHC's operations team to drive down the cost of goods sold and its marketing department to re-deploy resources (instead of spending money on additional resources) during promotional campaigns are key to maintaining profitability levels.

I now provide an indication for the target price.

Valuations and key takeaways
With superior profitability margins, KHC is the only company which seems to have taken the most advantage from the surge in COVID-led demand, may be as a result of the new CEO being able to think out-of-the box.

Figure 8: Comparing the valuations



Source: SeekingAlpha

Hence, according to all metrics, namely price to earnings, price to sales and EV to EBITDA ratios, valuations for KHC is on the lower side.

I get a value of $38-42 which is aligned with Piper Sandler's target of $39.

My bullish instance is reinforced through the actions of the new management which is implementing a new operating model to improve performance on a sustainable basis.

Second, winning younger customers with more purchasing power means greater opportunity to sell natural food as the Gen-Z and millennials are more likely to favor organic Foods according to Packaged Facts.

In this context, it would be useful to get updated as to the amount of sales being conducted online given the fact that behaviors are changing as more adults stay and therefore dine alone and kids eat more lunches at home versus school.

Looking further down the road, some of the progress made has delivered results but much still remains to be seen as changes are still being brought to the organization.

As a holder since March 2018, I am now confident that the ingredients are here to ensure profitable and sustainable growth after some stimulus from the coronavirus.

In addition, the fact that the company has less exposure to the food-service business earns it a better position to weather the forthcoming economic downturn.

Finally, food is an essential commodity and KHC as a large scale food-manufacturing company ensures that despite disruptions, it continues to be available in retail stores.

Therefore, at current stock prices, the company is a buy.

Disclosure: I am/we are long KHC. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from Seeking Alpha). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

Oh yes...

What a disaster?

Too bad for KHC - Unilever trials geolocation tech to tackle deforestation in palm oil supply chains

19 August 2020, source edie newsroom

https://www.edie.net/news/7/Unilever-trials-geolocation-tech-to-tackle-deforestation-in-palm-oil-supply-chains/

Unilever is piloting new geolocation technology in a bid to ensure it meets its zero-deforestation targets, which cover supply chains including palm oil, soy and paper and board.

Developed by US-based firm Orbital Insight, the technology leverages GPS data and satellite images to identify patterns of land use and traffic. In regions where there is a consistent flow of traffic between agricultural land and a mill, the technology will predict the likelihood that a farm or plantation is supplying a mill and, in turn, the possibility of deforestation.

Unilever hopes that the technology can help it overcome challenges around securing the visibility of the “first mile” of commodity journeys. Palm oil and soy are particularly challenging to trace, given that crops are often harvested from many different areas and mixed either at the mill or before reaching it.

The consumer goods giant is already using satellite imagery to monitor farms and plantations across its global supply chains but hopes the new technology could make the identification of potential environmental risks more accurate and rapid. Its current approaches largely rely on drawing a radius around land and identifying mills within that area. Unilever also hopes that the technology will help other companies across the value chains of the commodities it sources.

"Better monitoring helps all of us to understand what's happening within our supply chains," Unilever’s chief supply chain officer Marc Engel said.

"By companies coming together and using cutting-edge technology to carefully monitor our forests, we can all get closer to achieving our collective goal of ending deforestation."

Unilever is no stranger to using innovative technologies for supply chain management, having recently implemented blockchain to tea supply chains in a drive to improve social sustainability.

A pivotal moment for palm oil

Palm oil is found in a wide range of foods and some cosmetics and household goods, but its production is often problematic. The race to satisfy growing demand over the past two decades has resulted in vast plantations replacing native forest in countries in south-east Asia, while efforts to prevent forest destruction have often been stymied by corruption or companies flouting the rules.

Unilever has a commitment to reach zero net deforestation in key supply chains, including palm oil, by the end of 2020. As of 2019, the firm was 95% of the way towards this target for palm oil and had met it for paper and soy. Progress was slower, however, for sunflower oil.

While Unilever is the world’s largest single buyer of palm oil, purchasing around 3% of the total amount produced globally each year, it is not the only firm to have made such a commitment. There is, in fact, an industry-wide commitment across the consumer goods sector to tackle deforestation by 2020, binding firms which do not eliminate deforestation from their supply chains to plant trees to ‘offset’ this impact.

CDP warned late last year that just one-third of the 22 firms to have signed this commitment had deployed comprehensive management practices around forestry and land use. Unilever was praised for its efforts, while the likes of Kraft Heinz and Yum! Brands were named as laggards.

Similar research has since been conducted by WWF and Rainforest Action Network. The conclusion was the same; that the FMCG sector is off track to meeting its deforestation commitments.

The Covid-19 pandemic has caused the first global drop in palm oil demand and production since records began. Time will tell if the sector will undergo a truly green recovery.

Maxwell House Launches New Zero Waste Single-Serve Coffee Pods
NEWS PROVIDED BY

Good move. - FUNMAN

Kraft Heinz Canada
Aug 17, 2020, 08:00 ET

https://www.newswire.ca/news-releases/maxwell-house-launches-new-zero-waste-single-serve-coffee-pods-863920440.html

"Good to the last drop. And long after" reflects a commitment to a more sustainable future and to the next generation of coffee drinkers.

TORONTO, Aug. 17, 2020 /CNW/ - Canadian icon Maxwell House has always been, "Good to the last drop." Now, thanks to a bold new 100% compostable pod innovation launch, it's "Good to the last drop. And long after."

Serving as a stamp of the brand's commitment to sustainability, the launch of Maxwell House 100% compostable coffee pods provides an alternative to the popular single-serve pods. Made entirely from plant-based materials, all pod components and its inner bag are 100% compostable, plus the outer carton is 100% recyclable, leaving zero waste for the consumer. This helps Canadians reduce waste without sacrificing the convenience of single-serve pods or the rich flavour of Maxwell House coffee they know and love.

"We recognize the significant concern packaging waste presents and we are working collectively at all levels of our operations to explore alternative solutions," says Nicole Fischer, Head of Sustainability, Kraft Heinz Canada. "Through ongoing collaboration with packaging experts, organizations and coalitions, Kraft Heinz Canada is working towards a circular economy to ensure real measures are taken to reduce single-use plastics and divert food waste from our landfills, limiting harmful impacts to our environment."

With the launch of Maxwell House 100% compostable coffee pods, waste reduction is at the forefront, with sustainable packaging from beginning to end. It's a simple one-step process: toss the pod into the compost bin and it will decompose into nutrient rich soil. Leaving zero waste for the consumer, the compostable coffee pods are made of 85% coffee grounds (real, actual coffee) with a paper lid, a coffee filter made from cornstarch and a plant-based compostable ring made from over 20% coffee bean husks.

Certified by the Biodegradable Products Institute, this designation verifies that the compostable coffee pod meets global scientific standards for industrial compostability and is formulated to break down in a period of about seven weeks. Gone are the days of tedious separation of recyclable pod elements, including the removal of the lid, ring, mesh filters and coffee grounds. Further, organization into the correct recycling and composting categories is no longer required.

Dr. Calvin Lakhan, industry expert and leading environmental researcher at Toronto's York University says, "Both brands and consumers have a critical role to play in driving sustainability forward through innovative technology and developing solutions that balance the demands of modern society with the needs of the planet. By making the switch from traditional single-use plastic pods to compostable pods, we could help reduce plastics by the height of more than 4,000 CN towers annually."

As a way to showcase the innovation, Maxwell House launched an immersive educational experience to highlight how the pods decompose. Located at stackt market in downtown Toronto, visitors can witness first-hand how the compostable pods break down over the next few weeks in a shipping container filled with 500 lbs. of shredded organic material, such as expired fruits and veggies, and the 100% compostable pods.

By the end of the process, all the pods used to create the experience will break down completely so all that is left is nutrient rich soil. Time lapse assets of the decomposition experience will also be shared with Canadians across social media to demonstrate the reality of the process. To learn more and witness the science behind the pods, visit @MaxwellHouseCA on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.

The launch will also be supported with a national TV-led campaign spanning digital, social, PR, e-commerce and in-store activations.

Kraft Heinz will be releasing its 2020 Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) report as part of its corporate citizenship and sustainability efforts in Fall 2020. The report highlights its commitment to sustainability, including the company's aim to make 100% of packaging recyclable, reusable or compostable by 2025.

Planters Mascot Mr. Peanut Redesigned as Baby Nut

https://www.packagingstrategies.com/articles/95577-planters-mascot-mr-peanut-redesigned-as-baby-nut

July 2, 2020

Baby Nut, the cute newborn version of Planters’ classic mascot Mr. Peanut who made his debut at the Super Bowl this year, will appear on Planters packaging. On the packaging, a wide-eyed Baby Nut clutches a peanut with an awestruck look on his face. The tagline reads: “That’s one cute nut!”

Baby Nut came to life during Planters’ Super Bowl spot after a pregame ad showed the original Mr. Peanut dying in a nutmobile accident to save pals Wesley Snipes and Matt Walsh. At Mr. Peanut’s funeral, a tear from the Kool-Aid Man landed on the plot, sprouting a peanut plant that brought Mr. Peanut back to life as Baby Nut.

Since his resurrection, Baby Nut has been reading stories to kids in animated videos created for a campaign that ran during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic after a social media hiatus following the Big Game.

If fans of Baby Nut want to get their hands on Planters packaging featuring his photo, they’ll need to act fast. The packaging is a limited edition run, and as Maya McDonald, head of social and digital across beverages, snacks and desserts at Kraft Heinz, previously told Adweek, he won’t be a baby forever.

“He has the spirit of Mr. Peanut, and he is going to be growing back into his previous form,” she said in April. “So we have a lot of different fun things on the horizon as he goes back to Mr. Peanut, but we’re definitely enjoying doing some fun things with Baby Nut right now, and you’ll see a lot more Baby Nut in the next few months.”

Kraft-Heinz 5.25% Yield Is A Buy

Posted on Thursday, April 30th, 2020 by Thomas Hughes


Consumer Staples, It’s What You Want To Own

The consumer staples (XLP) stocks have been on a tear and no wonder. The global coronavirus pandemic is driving people to stay home, stock up, and social-distance, and that means big spending in the staples categories. Companies like Conagra (CAG), General Mills (GIS), the JM Smucker Company (SJM), and Kellogg (K) have all been reporting goods news. news like increased organic sales, improved profits, and positive outlook, and that has been driving their shares back to pre-virus levels and higher.

Today’s spotlight is on Kraft-Heinz (KHC). The global food-staple behemoth reported better than expected top and bottom-line results and a very favorable outlook. Where most S&P 500 companies are going to see their revenue and earnings fall sharply in Q2 Kraft sees a modest increase for both. Don’t forget, Q2 is going to be the worst-hit quarter regarding earnings for the “average company” as most major markets are in lockdown.

What The Consumers Say

When it comes to what the consumers say, following the money is always the best bet. When it comes to Kraft-Heinz, the consumers say they want what the company is selling. Revenue in the 1st quarter not only grew 3.3% from the previous year but came in above the consensus forecast. Earnings, due to a combination of pricing, volume, and mix, also grew from the previous year to beat the consensus expectation.

The average price per case sold increased by 1.6% over the last year showing the company’s ability to pass cost increases on to the consumer. Volume and mix added a total of 4.6% of growth to the results bringing organic growth to nearly 6.2% for the quarter. In the U.S., comps rose 6.4% while Internationally they rose a slightly-more robust at 6.9%.

The only bad news is that Kraft management decided to pull the full-year guidance. The silver lining is that Kraft, like so many others, is positioned to do well during the pandemic. The reason for the guidance-pull more than mitigates its existence; Kraft thinks its current guidance may be too low but is unwilling to say so. Based on the current results and what guidance they were able to provide, the analyst’s consensus is too low and in need of upward revision. As it stands now, the analysts see 2020 revenue growth as flat to slightly negative.

The Dividend, A Healthy 5%

Kraft-Heinz is not well known as a dividend-grower, far from it in fact, but that does not negate its attractiveness today. At today’s prices, Kraft is paying more than 5% with very little expectation the distribution will be cut. Along with today’s release, Kraft issued its next distribution declaration assuring the next payment safe at least.

Beyond that, Kraft is earning plenty to cover its payment despite a slightly-higher than preferred 68% payout ratio. Assuming the company can at least meet consensus over the next two years that should not become a problem. In terms of cash-flow and debt, Kraft is carrying some debt but it’s well-managed long-term debt the company has been working hard to reduce. It was just 1.5 years ago Kraft cut its dividend to $0.40 quarterly in order to accelerate the "deleveraging process to provide greater balance sheet flexibility." That process is ongoing.

The Technical Outlook: A Vee-Shape Recovery Is In Process

A quick look at the chart of KHC prices will show you an asset in the process of recovery. This stock saw a massive correction that shaved 37.5% off its 2020 highs and then a nice rebound. The bottom is more like a quick double-bottom than a true Vee-shaped recovery but that’s not a concern.

What is a concern is that price action appears to be flagging and the indicators are consistent with a top. This may lead the stock to correct again, possibly as low as the $28 level, despite the generally bullish outlook. If KHC falls to the EMA and confirms support I would be a buyer. Likewise, if the stock price stabilizes at today’s levels and moves above $30.25 I would also be a buyer.

Oh Yeah, That’s what I’m doing, Buying more of this ole beat up Gem.

Let's go KHC we help feeding the world .
Essential worker's deserves a hand buy the stock and support their efforts

Love how the 5 day chart looks.
