A hotter-than-expected inflation report initially rattled markets on Wednesday morning, but investors found confidence to buy the dip, helping major indexes recover most losses by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/02/43656846/inflation-rises-more-than-expected-in-january-chills-interest-rate-cut-hopes">midday trading in New York.</a>
The S&amp;P 500 was down 0.2%, while the Nasdaq 100 was flat, both rebounding from sharp declines following the January Consumer Price Index report. Small-cap stocks underperformed, with the Russell 2000 slipping 0.8%.
The headline CPI rose 3% year over year in January, surpassing both December's 2.9% reading and economist forecasts of 2.9%.

캠벨 스프 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CPB#NYSE">CPB</a>)는 견고한 공급망, 성공적인 혁신 및 효과적인 마케팅 프로그램으로 인해 어려운 소비자 환경 속에서도 탄력을 보여주고 있다. 
회사의 비용 절감 계획 또한 이러한 성공 이야기에 이바지하고 있다. 2024 회계 연도 2분기까지 회사는 스나이더스 랜스(Snyder&#8217;s-Lance) 시너지를 포함한 여러 해 동안의 비용 절감 프로그램의 일환으로 9억 1500만 달러의 비용 절감을 발생시켰다. 경영진은 2025 회계 연도 말까지 10억달러 상당의 비용 절감을 실현할 것으로 예상되는 가운데 있는 것으로 보인다.
<h3>CPB에게 잘 작용하는 것들</h3>
캠벨 스프는 포트폴리오 내 다양한 기회에 잘 대응할 수 있는 위치에 있으며 변화하는 소비 트렌드와 일치시키기 위한 여러 기회를 잡을 수 있는 위치에 있다. 회사의 전략과 계획은 다음 세 가지 핵심 영역에 중점을 두고 있다.
1) 마진 목표의 범위 내에서 제품 가격을 경쟁력 있게 유지하고 경제적인 가격을 보장하는 것
2) 마케팅 및 혁신 계획을 유지하는 것
3) 투자 수익률과 영향력 있는 계획에 중점을 둔 수입 절복적 및 균형 있는 지출 방침을 준수하는 것.
이어지는 혁신 정책과 소보스 브랜즈(SOVOS Brands)의 인수가 보조되면서 캠벨 스프는 식품 산업에서의 위치를 단단히 다지고 가속화된 성장을 보일 수 있을 것으로 예상됩니다. 이번 인수는 캠벨의 밀 앤 비버리지(Meals &amp; Beverages) 포트폴리오를 라오(Rao)의 소스, 마이클 앤젤로(Michael Angelo&#8217;s)의 브랜드 및 누사(noosa)와 같은 고성장 브랜드로 강화한다. 소보스 브랜즈는 캠프벨에 파스타 소스, 건파스타, 수프, 냉동식품, 냉동 피자 및 요거트와 같은 프리미엄 제품군을 가져온다.
계속 진행 중인 이러한 추진력과 2024년 3월에 완료된 소보스 브랜즈의 인수를 통해 캠벨 스프는 높은 성장판을 구축하고 견고한 위치에 있다. 이런 이유로 캠벨 스프에는 비용의 하락과 수익의 증가에 연관되어있는 이점이 어느때보다 많아졌다. 비즈니스에서의 이익을 이끌어내기 위한 관리의 직접적인 점포 배송(DSD) 변환 프로젝트는 스낵 부문에서의 추가 성장과 이익을 기대하고 있다. 이 프로젝트는 3가지 핵심 요소를 통해 이루어질 것으로 예상된다. 첫번째는 스낵 DSD 로지스틱스 및 창고 네트워크를 하나로 조합하는 것, 두번째는 회사의 중요한 독립적 유통 파트너가 사용하는 도구 및 기술을 현대화하는 것 , 세번째는 DSD 경로에 중점을 둔 것이다.
<h3>기타 알아둬야할 사항</h3>
캠벨 스프는 변동성이 높은 소비자 풍토를 탐색하고 있다. 2024 회계 연도 2분기에 회사의 매출 비중은 43.7%를 차지한 스낵 사업으로부터 혜택을 보았다. 이 사업 부문의 순매출은 이번 분기 기준 유기적 기준으로 1% 증가한 7억 2500만달러를 기록하였으며 이는 8가지의 파워브랜드의 매출 급증 (4%) 이라는 결과로 이어졌다. 경제적인 현실이 더욱 어려워진 가운데 Goldfish, Lance, Kettle Brand 및 Cape Cod와 같은 브랜드의 강점으로 인해 매출이 강화된 것으로 보인다. 경영진은 DSD 전략을 통해 Snacks 부문에서의 더 많은 성장과 이익이 예상된다고 말하고 있다. 이는 다음과 같은 세 가지 핵심 요소를 통해 이루어 질 것으로 예상된다. 1) 스낵 DSD 로지스틱스 및 창고 네트워크를 하나로 조합하는 것 2) 회사의 중요한 독립적 유통 파트너가 사용하는 도구 및 기술을 현대화하는 것 3) DSD 경로에 중점을 둔 것이다.
<h3>다른 사항들</h3>
캠벨 스프는 변동성이 높은 소비자 풍토를 탐색하고 있다. 2024 회계 연도 2분기에 회사의 매출 비중은 43.7%를 차지한 스낵 사업으로부터 혜택을 보았다. 회사의 2024 회계 연도 2분기에는 연간 기준으로 다소 낮아진 소프트 볼륨/믹스(전년 동기대비 2% 감소)가 1% 상승한 순 가격실현 때문에 유기적 순매출이 1% 감소했다. 이러한 사업 중심의 영향으로 캠벨 스프의 매출은 1% 줄었지만 이는 기대를 하던 것보다 나은 성과이다. 근래 경제의 풍향이 갈수록 어려워지고 있는 가운데로 인해 일부 카테고리와 소비자 인구통계학적 요소에 영향을 미칠 것으로 보인다. 2024 회계 연도 중 회사는 당초 보고된 숫자들에 비해 0.5% 감소부터 1.5% 증가 사이의 순매출 유지를 예상하고 있다. 유기적 매출은 평평한 수준에서 2%까지의 증가를 보일 것으로 예상된다. 둘째 분기에 발표된 이익 보고서에 따르면 회사의 경영진은 캠벨 스프의 2024 회계 연도의 순매출에 대한 전망의 하측으로 진행하고 있다고 밝혔으며, 이에 따라 올해 내내 순차적인 개선을 지켜보고 있다. 3분기에는 회사의 경영진은 유기적 매출을 기준으로 수준이 하향되어 2학기에 이어 4분기에도 순차적인 증가가 예상된다고 말했다. 캠벨 스프는 장기간에 걸쳐 비용 인플레이션이 있었고, 기업은 2024 회계 연도 동안 주요 인플레이션 비율이 단일 숫자 범위 내에서 유지될 것으로 예상하고 있다. 회사는 2024 회계 연도 동안 브랜드 관련 투자를 지속할 것으로 예상하고 있습니다. 회사의 경영진은 올 해 회사의 마케팅 및 판매 비용 예산이 올 해 회계 연도 9월과 12월 사이에 총 매출의 9%에서 10% 사이로 늘어날 것으로 예상하고 있다. 그렇지만 회사는 올해 2분기에 기대 이익과 마진 개선을 통해 주로 4분기에 경제적인 풍토 개선이 나타날 것으로 예상하고 있다. 이러한 변화는 지속적인 생산성 향상 및 용량 추세의 증가를 통해 반영될 것으로 보인다.
캠벨 스프는 2024 회계 연도 동안 조정된 EBIT가 3-5% 증가할 것으로 예상된다. 조정된 EPS는 3-5% 증가하여 3.09~3.15%로 예상된다. 3분기에는 최근 1년간 68센트였던 EPS보다 낮은 70센트 정도의 EPS가 예상된다. 캠벨 스프의 주식은 지난 6개월 동안 15.3% 라는 산업의 성장률에 비해 11.5%의 상승을 기록했다.
