Campbell Provides Fiscal 2013 Guidance
CAMDEN, N.J., Sept. 4, 2012-Campbell Soup Company (NYSE:CPB) today reported its fourth-quarter and full-year results for fiscal 2012.
Fourth-Quarter Overview
• | Reported Sales Were Comparable to Prior Year; Organic Sales Increased 3 Percent |
• | Adjusted Earnings Before Interest and Taxes (EBIT) Declined 10 Percent |
• | U.S. Simple Meals Sales Grew 7 Percent; Earnings Increased 3 Percent |
• | In Global Baking and Snacking, U.S. Beverages, and International Simple Meals and Beverages, Organic Sales Increased, While Earnings Declined |
Net earnings for the quarter ended July 29, 2012 were $127 million, or $0.40 per share, compared with $100 million, or $0.31 per share, in the prior year. The current quarter's reported net earnings included transaction costs associated with the Aug. 6, 2012 acquisition of Bolthouse Farms. The prior-year quarter's reported net earnings included charges associated with the previously announced June 2011 restructuring program. Excluding items impacting comparability in both periods, adjusted net earnings decreased 8 percent to $130 million compared with $141 million in the prior year's quarter, and adjusted net earnings per share decreased 5 percent to $0.41 compared with $0.43 in the year-ago quarter. A detailed reconciliation of current and prior-year adjusted financial information to the reported information is included at the end of this news release.
Denise Morrison, Campbell's President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “In the fourth quarter, we generated organic sales growth, with gains across most of our portfolio, including strong sales in U.S. Soup and U.S. Simple Meals. Retailers continue to respond favorably to our new product development, and we have started shipping new products for fiscal 2013 launches.”
Morrison continued, “In fiscal 2012, we advanced our strategies to stabilize and profitably grow North America soup and simple meals, to expand our international presence and to drive growth in healthy beverages and baked snacks. In the first year of our strategic transition, we've renewed our focus on consumer insights, reinvigorated our brand building efforts and significantly improved our innovation pipeline. With the acquisition of Bolthouse Farms, we positioned Campbell for growth in the rapidly expanding packaged fresh market. While we've had some important accomplishments this year, we also recognize that driving change at Campbell will require a sharper focus on execution. Our strategic framework is a roadmap to drive disciplined and successful change at Campbell. We will continue to enhance and grow our core business, while we broaden our appeal with new consumer groups, new product platforms and new geographies.”
Morrison concluded, “As we begin the new fiscal year, we are confident that we will improve our sales and earnings trends. Today, we've provided specific growth ranges for fiscal 2013 sales, adjusted EBIT and adjusted EPS.”
Campbell's fiscal 2013 guidance, which is included at the end of this news release, reflects improved trends in the company's core business, as well as the impact of Bolthouse Farms.
Fourth-Quarter Results
For the fourth quarter, sales were $1.613 billion, comparable to a year ago. Sales were impacted by the following factors:
▪Volume and mix added 3 percent
▪Price and sales allowances added 3 percent
▪Increased promotional spending subtracted 3 percent
▪Currency subtracted 3 percent
Fourth-Quarter Financial Details
▪ | Gross margin was 38.5 percent compared with 39.8 percent a year ago. The decrease in gross margin percentage was primarily due to cost inflation and increased promotional spending, partly offset by productivity improvements and higher selling prices. |
▪ | Marketing and selling expenses increased 5 percent to $206 million compared with $196 million in the prior year, primarily due to a 6-percent increase in advertising and consumer promotion expenses, higher spending to support innovation efforts and higher selling |
2
expenses, partly offset by a decline due to currency.
▪ | EBIT was $203 million compared with $169 million in the prior-year quarter. Excluding items impacting comparability in both periods, adjusted EBIT decreased 10 percent to $208 million compared with adjusted EBIT of $232 million a year ago. The decrease was primarily due to the decline in the gross margin percentage and higher marketing expenses, partly offset by an increase in sales volume. |
▪ | The tax rate in the quarter was 29.8 percent compared with 31.5 percent in the prior year. Excluding items impacting comparability in both periods, the adjusted tax rate was 30.1 percent compared with 32.5 percent a year ago. The decrease was primarily due to lower taxes on foreign earnings in the current year. |
▪ | Adjusted net earnings per share were $0.41 in the current quarter compared with adjusted net earnings per share of $0.43 in the prior-year quarter, a decrease of 5 percent. The decline reflected the lower EBIT, partially offset by the benefits of a lower tax rate and fewer shares outstanding. |
Full-Year Overview
• | Sales Were $7.7 Billion, Comparable to Prior Year |
• | Adjusted EBIT Declined 9 Percent |
• | Sales Increases in Global Baking and Snacking, North America Foodservice, and U.S. Beverages Were Offset by Declines in International Simple Meals and Beverages and U.S. Simple Meals |
• | U.S. Simple Meals Earnings Were Comparable to a Year Ago |
• | North America Foodservice Delivered Earnings Growth |

Net earnings for the fiscal year were $774 million, or $2.41 per share, compared with $805 million, or $2.42 per share, in the year-ago period. Excluding items impacting comparability in both periods, adjusted net earnings declined 7 percent to $783 million, compared to adjusted net earnings of $846 million. Adjusted net earnings per share declined 4 percent to $2.44 versus an adjusted $2.54 per share in the prior year.

▪Increased promotional spending subtracted 1 percent
Full-Year Financial Details
▪ | Gross margin was 38.8 percent compared with 40.2 percent a year ago. The decrease in |
3
gross margin percentage was due to cost inflation, increased promotional spending and unfavorable mix, partly offset by higher selling prices and productivity improvements.
▪ | Marketing and selling expenses increased $13 million to $1.02 billion, primarily due to a 3-percent increase in advertising and consumer promotion expenses. |
▪ | Administrative expenses decreased $1 million to $611 million. |
▪ | EBIT was $1.212 billion compared with $1.279 billion in the prior year. Excluding items impacting comparability in both periods, adjusted EBIT declined 9 percent to $1.227 billion, compared to adjusted EBIT of $1.342 billion in the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to the decline in gross margin percentage. |
▪ | Adjusted net earnings per share were $2.44 compared with adjusted net earnings per share of $2.54 in the prior year, a decrease of 4 percent. The decline reflected the lower EBIT, partially offset by the benefit of fewer shares outstanding. |
▪ | Cash flow from operations was $1.120 billion compared with $1.142 billion in the prior year. The decline reflected the impact of lower cash earnings, partly offset by lower pension contributions. |
▪ | In fiscal 2012, Campbell repurchased 12.6 million shares for $412 million under its $1 billion strategic share repurchase program announced in June 2011 and the ongoing practice of buying back shares sufficient to offset those issued under incentive compensation plans. |
Summary of Fiscal 2012 Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year Results by Segment
U.S. Simple Meals

▪ | Sales of ready-to-serve soups increased 1 percent. Sales of “Campbell's Chunky” soups increased slightly while sales of “Campbell's Select Harvest” soups declined. “Campbell's Slow Kettle” soups, launched in July 2011, contributed to the sales growth. |

4
broths and the benefit of “Swanson Flavor Boost” concentrated broth launched in July 2011, partly offset by declines in canned broth.

U.S. Simple Meals operating earnings were $104 million compared with $101 million in the prior-year period, an increase of 3 percent. The increase in operating earnings reflected earnings gains in U.S. Soup, partly offset by a decline in U.S. Sauces.

U.S. Simple Meals operating earnings were $658 million compared with $657 million in the prior year, reflecting earnings gains in U.S. Soup that were mostly offset by lower earnings in U.S. Sauces. For the segment, higher selling prices, productivity improvements and lower promotional spending were mostly offset by volume declines and cost inflation.

Operating earnings for the quarter were $83 million compared with $92 million in the prior year. The decrease in operating earnings reflected lower earnings in Arnott's, partly offset by growth in Pepperidge Farm. For the segment, the 10-percent decline was primarily due to increased promotional spending and cost inflation, partly offset by higher selling prices and productivity improvements.

▪Price and sales allowances added 5 percent
▪Increased promotional spending subtracted 3 percent

Excluding the impact of currency, higher sales in Latin America, primarily beverage products, were partially offset by declines in Canada, while sales in Europe and in the Asia Pacific region were comparable to the year-ago period.
▪ | In Canada, sales decreased primarily due to the negative impact of currency and lower beverage sales. |
▪ | In Europe, excluding the negative impact of currency, sales growth in France was offset by lower sales in Germany. |
▪ | In the Asia Pacific region, excluding the negative impact of currency, sales growth in Japan and Malaysia was offset by declines in Australian soup. |

▪Volume and mix subtracted 3 percent

Excluding the impact of currency, sales declines in Canada, Europe and the Asia Pacific region were partly offset by gains in Latin America.
Operating earnings fell to $153 million compared with $185 million in the year-ago period. The decrease in operating earnings was primarily due to lower earnings in the Asia Pacific region and Canada, as well as increased costs associated with the company's market expansion in China.
U.S. Beverages
Sales for U.S. Beverages were $181 million for the fourth quarter, an increase of 3 percent compared to the year-ago period, due to gains from volume and mix.
Sales gains continued to outpace category growth and were primarily driven by double-digit increases in “V8 Splash” beverages and gains in “V8 V-Fusion” beverages, partially offset by declines in “V8” vegetable juice. Sales of “V8 V-Fusion” beverages benefited from the launch of new items, including Smoothies, Energy, Sparkling and Kids' drinks.
Operating earnings for the quarter were $25 million compared with $30 million in the year-ago period. The decrease in earnings was primarily due to an increase in marketing expenses and a decline in gross margin percentage, partly offset by higher sales volume.

▪ | Volume and mix added 3 percent |
▪ | Increased promotional spending subtracted 1 percent |
Sales of both “V8 Splash” beverages and “V8 V-Fusion” beverages increased, while sales of “V8” vegetable juice declined.
Operating earnings declined to $134 million from $182 million in the year-ago period, primarily due to cost inflation, particularly juice concentrates and packaging materials, increased promotional spending and higher advertising expenses, partly offset by productivity improvements.

On Aug. 6, 2012, Campbell completed the acquisition of Bolthouse Farms for $1.55 billion, subject to customary purchase price adjustments. In the fourth quarter, Campbell recorded pre-tax transaction costs of $5 million, $3 million after-tax, or $0.01 per share, related to the acquisition.

Fiscal 2013 Guidance
