J.M. Smucker Co. Balances Divestment and Dividends Amid Market Underperformance
The J.M. Smucker Co. has announced various moves including declaring a dividend of $1.08 per share for December and diversifying for more growth and profitability. There's the ongoing concern about input cost inflation leading to downgrades for the Company. The firm decided to divest its Voortman Cookies brand to CapVest, a buyout firm, for $305 million. Despite this sale and the declaration of a larger dividend, the company's stock has been underperforming in the market. Still, Raymond James & Associates, Commerzbank Aktiengesellschaft FI, and other firms have been acquiring shares of the firm. The company is largely controlled by institutional shareholders, holding about 83% of the company. The company has also seen earnings growth over the past five years that's better than stock performance. The company has cut its full-year outlook, due to inflation impacting consumer discretionary spending. Smucker's CEO iterates the company's ongoing evolution, remaining optimistic about the future.
