CAMPBELL REPORTS FOURTH-QUARTER AND FULL-YEAR RESULTS
Fourth-Quarter Adjusted Net Earnings Per Share Increased 30 Percent to $0.43
Full-Year Adjusted Net Earnings Per Share Increased 3 Percent to $2.54
Fourth-Quarter Adjusted Net Earnings Per Share Increased 30 Percent to $0.43
Full-Year Adjusted Net Earnings Per Share Increased 3 Percent to $2.54
CAMDEN, N.J., Sept. 2, 2011Campbell Soup Company (NYSE: CPB) today reported its results for the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2011.
Fourth-Quarter Summary
| Sales Increased 6 Percent to $1.607 Billion; Excluding Currency, Organic Sales Increased 1 Percent | |
| Strong Performances in Global Baking and Snacking, International Simple Meals and Beverages and North America Foodservice | |
| U.S. Simple Meals Sales Decreased 8 Percent |
Net earnings for the quarter ended July 31, 2011, were $100 million, or $0.31 per share,
compared with $113 million, or $0.33 per share, in the prior year. The current quarters reported
net earnings included charges associated with previously announced restructuring initiatives.
Excluding these charges, adjusted net earnings increased 25 percent to $141 million, and adjusted
net earnings per share increased 30 percent to $0.43 in the current quarter. A detailed
reconciliation of adjusted financial information to the reported information is included at the end
of this news release.
Denise Morrison, Campbells President and CEO, said, Our fourth-quarter results were slightly
better than expected.
Our Global Baking and Snacking segment delivered strong performance with double-digit top- and bottom-line growth in the quarter.
We also continued to make progress on our efforts to stabilize U.S. Simple Meals. But we have more work to do. As expected, lower promotional
spending contributed to improved soup profits despite anticipated volume declines. Were
confident
that rebalancing our marketing investments toward consumer-focused brand building activities and developing a more robust innovation pipeline is the right
approach to restore profitable growth over time. Sales of U.S. Beverages declined slightly in the quarter, compared to 12-percent growth a
year ago. Significant cost inflation and increased promotional spending depressed beverage profits
in the quarter.
Morrison concluded, Were pleased to be finishing a very difficult fiscal year with some
positive momentum and a new strategic direction. Fiscal 2012 will be a year of transition, as we
build the foundation for a new Campbell with a renewed focus on meeting consumers needs.
Implementing our new strategic framework will require substantial investment as we extend brand and
product platforms through more consistent innovation in Simple Meals, Baked Snacks and Healthy
Beverages, reinvigorate consumer marketing activities and drive international expansion in priority
markets. Our team is beginning to implement these strategies, and the company is energized by this
change in direction.
Fiscal 2012 Guidance
Campbells fiscal year 2011 results were slightly ahead of the guidance issued in July 2011.
As a result, the company is
adjusting its forecasted 2012 growth rates. Campbell now expects net sales growth to be between 0
and 2 percent, a decline in adjusted EBIT of between (9) and (7) percent and a decline in adjusted
EPS of between (7) and (5) percent from the adjusted base of $2.54. These growth rates maintain planned fiscal 2012 levels of spending on innovation and brand building. The rates also exclude the
impact in fiscal 2012 of the previously announced restructuring program.
New Reportable Segments
Beginning with the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, Campbell will report the results of its
operations in the following five reportable segments: U.S. Simple Meals, U.S. Beverages, Global
Baking and Snacking, International Simple Meals and Beverages and North America Foodservice.
Previously, U.S. Simple Meals and U.S. Beverages were combined and reported as U.S. Soup, Sauces
and Beverages. Additionally, the Baking and Snacking segment has been renamed as Global Baking and
Snacking, and the
2
International Soup, Sauces and Beverages segment has been renamed as International Simple
Meals and Beverages. Segment results of prior periods have been revised to conform to the current
presentation.
Restructuring Program
On June 28, 2011, Campbell announced a series of initiatives to improve supply chain
efficiency and reduce overhead costs across the company, as well as its plans to close its Moscow
office and exit the Russian market. In the fourth quarter, Campbell recorded pre-tax restructuring
costs of $63 million, $41 million after-tax or $0.12 per share, related to these initiatives.
Fourth-Quarter Results
For the fourth quarter, sales increased 6 percent to $1.607 billion. The increase in sales for
the quarter reflected the following factors:
▪ | Volume and mix subtracted 2 percent | ||
▪ | Price and sales allowances added 2 percent | ||
▪ | Decreased promotional spending added 1 percent | ||
▪ | Currency added 5 percent |
Fourth-Quarter Financial Details
▪ | Gross margin was 39.8 percent compared with 40.4 percent a year ago. The decline in gross margin percentage was primarily due to cost inflation and unfavorable mix, partly offset by productivity improvements, higher selling prices and reduced promotional spending. | ||
▪ | Marketing and selling expenses decreased 11 percent to $196 million compared with $221 million in the prior year, primarily due to lower advertising expenditures. | ||
▪ | Administrative expenses increased $3 million to $170 million, primarily due to the impact of currency. | ||
▪ | Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) were $169 million compared with $187 million in the prior-year quarter. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted EBIT in the current quarter was $232 million. Adjusted EBIT increased 24 percent primarily |
3
due to earnings gains in International Simple Meals and Beverages, North America Foodservice and Global Baking and Snacking, and the favorable impact of currency. |
▪ | Adjusted net earnings per share were $0.43 in the current quarter compared with net earnings per share of $0.33 in the prior-year quarter, an increase of 30 percent. Earnings per share also benefited from fewer outstanding shares reflecting the impact of the companys share repurchase programs. |
Full-Year Summary
| Sales Increased 1 Percent to $7.719 Billion | |
| Global Baking and Snacking Sales Increased 9 Percent | |
| U.S. Simple Meals Sales Decreased 6 Percent | |
| Earnings Gains in Global Baking and Snacking, North America Foodservice and International Simple Meals and Beverages |
Full-Year Results
Net earnings for the fiscal year were $805 million, or $2.42 per share, compared with $844
million, or $2.42 per share, in the year-ago period. Excluding items impacting comparability in
both periods, adjusted net earnings declined 2 percent to $846 million compared to adjusted net
earnings of $862 million, and adjusted net earnings per share increased 3 percent to $2.54 in the
current year versus an adjusted $2.47 per share in the prior year.
Sales for the fiscal year were $7.719 billion, an increase of 1 percent from the prior year.
The change in sales for the year reflected the following factors:
▪ | Volume and mix subtracted 1 percent | ||
▪ | Price and sales allowances added 1 percent | ||
▪ | Increased promotional spending subtracted 1 percent | ||
▪ | Currency added 2 percent |
Full-Year Financial Details
▪ | Gross margin was 40.2 percent compared with 41.0 percent a year ago. The decline in gross margin percentage was primarily due to cost inflation as well as higher plant costs, and increased |
4
promotional spending, partly offset by productivity improvements and higher selling prices. |
▪ | Marketing and selling expenses declined 5 percent to $1.007 billion, primarily due to lower advertising and lower selling expense, partly offset by the impact of currency. | ||
▪ | Administrative expenses increased $7 million to $612 million, primarily due to the impact of currency. | ||
▪ | EBIT was $1.279 billion compared with $1.348 billion in the prior year. Excluding items impacting comparability in both periods, adjusted EBIT declined 1 percent to $1.342 billion compared to adjusted EBIT of $1.360 billion. The decrease was primarily due to lower earnings in U.S. Simple Meals and U.S. Beverages, partly offset by gains across the balance of the portfolio and the favorable impact of currency. | ||
▪ | Cash flow from operations was $1.142 billion compared with $1.057 billion in the year-ago period. The current-year cash flow reflected the benefit of lower pension contributions and higher cash earnings, partly offset by higher working capital requirements. | ||
▪ | In fiscal 2011, Campbell repurchased 21 million shares for $728 million under its June 2008 strategic share repurchase program and its practice of buying back shares sufficient to offset those issued under incentive compensation plans. The June 2008 strategic share repurchase program was completed during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011. In June 2011, Campbell announced that its Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program, with no expiration date, to purchase up to $1 billion of its outstanding shares. |

Summary of Fiscal 2011 Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year Results by Segment
U.S. Simple Meals

compared to the year-ago period. A breakdown of the change in sales follows:
▪ | Volume and mix subtracted 11 percent | ||
▪ | Decreased promotional spending added 3 percent |
U.S. Soup sales declined 9 percent in the quarter. Sales volumes were negatively impacted by
reduced promotional spending and higher selling prices as the company continued to transition to
improved price realization. Soup sales, especially condensed varieties, were also negatively
impacted by unfavorable movements in customer inventory levels.
▪ | Sales of Campbells condensed soups decreased 10 percent, with declines in both eating and cooking varieties. | ||
▪ | Sales of ready-to-serve soups decreased 5 percent, reflecting declines in Select Harvest canned soups and microwavable soups. | ||
▪ | Broth sales declined 11 percent. |
Sales of Prego pasta sauce declined due to continued competitive merchandising and
competitive new items. Sales of Pace Mexican sauce declined largely due to share losses to
private label.
Operating earnings were $101 million compared with $97 million in the prior-year period. The
increase in operating earnings was primarily due to lower marketing and selling expenses and an
increase in gross margin percentage, partially offset by lower sales volumes.

of the change in sales follows:
▪ | Volume and mix subtracted 5 percent | ||
▪ | Increased promotional spending subtracted 1 percent |

declined.

V-Fusion juice benefited from the launch of V-Fusion + Tea, several new flavor varieties and
8-oz. slim cans.
Operating earnings declined 29 percent to $30 million compared with $42 million in the
year-ago period. The decrease in operating earnings was primarily due to significant cost
inflation, particularly ingredients and packaging costs, and increased promotional spending in
response to increased competitive activity, partly offset by productivity improvements.

breakdown of the change in sales follows:

Fiscal Year Ended July 31, 2011
Campbell Soup Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and
Exchange Commission in certain communications. These non-GAAP financial measures are measures of
performance not defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should
be considered in addition to, not in lieu of, GAAP reported measures.

Items Impacting Earnings
The company believes that financial information excluding certain transactions not considered to be
part of the ongoing business improves the comparability of year-to-year results. Consequently, the
company believes that investors may be able to better understand its earnings results if these
transactions are excluded.
The following items impacted earnings:
(1) | In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, the company announced a series of initiatives to improve supply chain efficiency and reduce overhead costs across the organization to help fund plans to drive the growth of the business. The company also announced its intent to close its office in Moscow and exit the Russian market. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, the company recorded pre-tax restructuring charges of $63 million ($41 million after tax or $.12 per share) related to these initiatives. | ||
In fiscal 2008, the company announced initiatives to improve operational efficiency and long-term profitability, including selling certain salty snack food brands and assets in Australia, closing certain production facilities in Australia and Canada, and streamlining the companys management structure. In the third quarter of fiscal 2010, the company recorded pre-tax restructuring charges of $12 million ($8 million after tax or $0.02 per share) for pension benefit costs related to these initiatives. | |||
(2) | In the third quarter of fiscal 2010, the company recorded deferred tax expense of $10 million ($0.03 per share) due to the enactment of U.S. health care legislation in March 2010. The law changed the tax treatment of subsidies to companies that provide prescription drug benefits to retirees. Accordingly, the company recorded the non-cash charge to reduce the value of the deferred tax asset associated with the subsidy. |
