CEO Comments

Mark Clouse, Campbell’s President and CEO, stated, “Fiscal 2021 is off to a strong start with first-quarter sales growth across both divisions and double-digit gains in EBIT and EPS. Our Meals & Beverages division continued to drive impressive sales and margin growth as we positioned our brands to align with macro consumer trends, and retailers rebuilt inventory for the holidays and the heart of soup season. Snacks continued to deliver strong results while increasing capacity in key power brands. We continue to build a high-performing Snacks business with differentiated brands and improving margins."

Clouse continued: "The Board approved a 6% increase in our quarterly dividend, reflecting the company’s strong earnings performance, cash flows and increasing confidence in our long-term growth prospects, as well as our continued commitment to shareholder returns.”

First-Quarter Results from Continuing Operations

Net sales increased 7% to $2.34 billion driven by gains in both Meals & Beverages and Snacks. Organic net sales grew 8% driven by a 6% increase in volume and mix and a 2% increase from lower levels of promotional spending. The volume increase reflected heightened demand as at-home food consumption remained elevated as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic as well as improved retailer soup inventories. Organic net sales exclude the impact from the sale of the European chips business in fiscal 2020.

Gross margin increased from 33.8% to 34.7%. Excluding items impacting comparability in the current year, adjusted gross margin increased 100 basis points to 34.8% driven primarily by moderated promotional spending and favorable mix, offset partly by slightly higher net supply chain costs as productivity improvements and improved operating leverage were more than offset by cost inflation, other operational costs and COVID-19 related costs.

Marketing and selling expenses increased 1% to $208 million, driven primarily by increased investments in advertising and consumer promotion, partly offset by the benefits of cost savings initiatives, lower marketing overhead and lower selling expenses. Administrative expenses increased 5% to $141 million. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted administrative expenses increased by $11 million, or 9%, driven primarily by higher benefit costs, general administrative costs and inflation, partially offset by the benefits of cost savings initiatives.

Other income was $18 million compared to other expenses of $56 million in the prior year. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted other income was $14 million compared to $8 million in the prior year.

As reported EBIT increased 45% to $461 million. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted EBIT increased 18% to $463 million primarily due to higher sales volumes, improved gross margin performance and lower selling expenses, offset partly by increased marketing investment and higher adjusted administrative expenses.

Net interest expense was $55 million compared to $80 million in the prior year reflecting lower levels of debt. Taxes increased to $97 million compared to $68 million in the prior year. Excluding items impacting comparability, the adjusted tax rate decreased 20 basis points to 23.8% from 24.0%.

As reported and adjusted EPS from continuing operations were $1.02 per share. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted EPS from continuing operations increased 31% reflecting an increase in adjusted EBIT and lower net interest expense.

Cash flows from operations of $180 million were comparable to the prior year. Capital expenditures were $74 million compared to $98 million in the prior year. The decline was due to capital expenditures associated with discontinued operations in the prior year. Capital expenditures for continuing operations were comparable to the prior year. In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the company paid $108 million of cash dividends, or the equivalent of $0.35 per share, reflecting our commitment to shareholder returns.

Cost Savings Program from Continuing Operations

In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, Campbell achieved $15 million in savings under its multi-year cost savings program, inclusive of Snyder’s-Lance synergies, bringing total program-to-date savings to $740 million. Campbell remains on track to deliver annualized savings of $850 million by the end of fiscal 2022.

Quarterly Dividend Increase

The company’s Board of Directors has approved an increase in its quarterly dividend from $0.35 per share to $0.37 per share, an increase of 6%, or $1.48 on an annualized basis. The quarterly dividend is payable Feb. 1, 2021, to shareholders of record at the close of business Jan. 9, 2021.

Campbell Provides Second-Quarter Fiscal 2021 Guidance

The impact of the continuing pandemic on the company's fiscal 2021 results is uncertain and makes it difficult to provide a full-year outlook at this time. Based on our expectation of a continued elevated demand landscape and increased investment in our brands, the company is providing second-quarter fiscal 2021 guidance as set forth in the table below:

Note: A detailed reconciliation of the reported (GAAP) net sales to organic net sales is included at the end of this news release.

Meals & Beverages

Net sales, both reported and organic, in the quarter increased 12% reflecting increases across U.S retail products, including gains in U.S. soup, inclusive of Pacific Foods soups and broths, Prego pasta sauces, V8 beverages, Campbell’s pasta and Pace Mexican sauces, as well as gains in Canada, partially offset by declines in foodservice. Volume was favorable in U.S. retail and Canada, driven by increased demand of food purchases for at-home consumption, offset partly by the negative impact on foodservice as a result of shifts in consumer behavior and continued COVID-19 related restrictions. Sales of U.S. soup increased 21% due to retailers rebuilding inventory for the upcoming soup season, in-market gains in condensed soups and broth and moderated promotional activity.

Segment operating earnings increased 18%. The increase was primarily due to sales volume gains and improved gross margin performance, offset partly by increased marketing investment. Gross margin

performance was impacted by the lower levels of promotional spending and favorable mix, as productivity improvements and improved operating leverage were offset by other operational costs, cost inflation and COVID-19 related costs.

Snacks

Net sales in the quarter increased 1%. Excluding the impact from the sale of the European chips business, organic sales increased 4% fueled by our power brands. Contributors to growth were lower levels of promotional spending as well as healthy velocity on the majority of the base business including volume gains in fresh bakery products, Late July snacks, Pop Secret popcorn, Pepperidge Farm cookies, Snack Factory Pretzel Crisps as well as Kettle Brand potato chips, partly offset by declines in Lance sandwich crackers. Sales of Goldfish crackers were relatively flat in the quarter, as increased demand for family size products was offset by reduced away-from-home consumption.

Segment operating earnings increased 11% driven by lower selling expenses, lower marketing overhead and sales volume gains partly offset by higher administrative expenses. Gross margin performance was consistent with prior year as lower levels of promotional spending were offset by higher net supply chain costs as productivity improvements, cost savings initiatives and improved operating leverage were more than offset by cost inflation and COVID-19 related costs.

Corporate

Corporate expenses were $10 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to $87 million in the prior year. Corporate expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 included costs related to cost savings initiatives of $5 million and pension settlement gains of $4 million. Corporate expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 included charges related to the sale of the European chips business of $64 million and costs of $8 million related to cost savings initiatives. Excluding these amounts, the remaining decrease in expenses primarily reflects losses on investments in the prior year.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures

First Quarter Ended November 1, 2020

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. Management believes that also presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures provides additional information to facilitate comparison of the company's historical operating results and trends in its underlying operating results, and provides transparency on how the company evaluates its business. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the company's performance.

Organic Net Sales

Organic net sales are net sales excluding the impact of currency, acquisitions, and divestitures. Management believes that excluding these items, which are not part of the ongoing business, improves the comparability of year-to-year results. A reconciliation of net sales as reported to organic net sales follows.

Items Impacting Earnings

Management believes that financial information excluding certain items that are not considered to reflect the ongoing operating results, such as those listed below, improves the comparability of year-to-year results. Consequently, management believes that investors may be able to better understand its results excluding these items.

The following items impacted earnings:

Continuing Operations

(1)The company has implemented several cost savings initiatives in recent years.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the company recorded Restructuring charges of $1 million and implementation costs and other related costs of $4 million in Administrative expenses and $1 million in Cost of products sold (aggregate impact of $5 million after tax, or $.02 per share) related to these initiatives. In the first quarter of fiscal 2020, the company recorded Restructuring charges of $3 million and implementation costs and other related costs of $8 million in Administrative expenses (aggregate impact of $8 million after tax, or $.03 per share) related to these initiatives. In the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the company recorded Restructuring charges of $7 million and implementation costs and other related costs of $13 million in Administrative expenses, $2 million in Cost of products sold, $2 million in Marketing and selling expenses, and $1 million in Research and development expenses (aggregate impact of $19 million after tax, or $.06 per share) related to these initiatives.

(2)In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the company recognized pre-tax pension settlement gains in Other expenses / (income) of $4 million ($3 million after tax, or $.01 per share). In the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the company recognized pre-tax pension settlement gains in Other expenses / (income) of $11 million ($8 million after tax, or $.03 per share).

(3)In the first quarter of fiscal 2020, the company recorded a loss in Other expenses / (income) of $64 million ($60 million after tax, or $.20 per share) on the sale of its European chips business. In the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the company recorded a tax benefit of $19 million ($.06 per share) on the sale of its European chips business.

(4)In the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the company recorded a loss in Interest expense of $75 million ($57 million after tax, or $.19 per share) on the extinguishment of debt.
