Lamb Weston Holdings Inc. (LW) has encountered global demand challenges, leading to a
restructuring plan involving job cuts and a plant shutdown, affecting their forecast and share price. Despite these struggles, they reported a strong Q1 2025, surpassing earnings estimates with an EPS of $0.88 and revenue of $1.65 billion, which outperformed both market expectations and competitors. Intriguingly, Q1 earnings were a mixed bag, meeting some estimates and underperforming others, influenced partially by debt management. Notably, LW shares decreased over 40% over 6 months. However, Barclays has increased its price target for LW, predicting a potential uptick. Lamb Weston continues to make strategic moves such as pay-outs via
quarterly dividends and new board appointments. However, the market has expressed mixed sentiments about the company's outlook.
LW's full-year sales guidance optimistically beats revenue, while the financial performance indicates a
profit view cut amid a demand slowdown.
