Various reports suggest that Kraft Heinz Company (KHC) is nearing a possible deal to break up the company, aiming to unlock shareholder value. Despite a slowed Q2 report, KHC's stock saw an increase with news of the possible split. JPMorgan has given a neutral rating, with the dividend cited as a significant investor draw. The potential split-off of a grocery business is being considered, adding an estimated value of $20 billion.
The company's focus on, and push in, the plant-based sector was noted as driving innovation. KHC is looking to revive its old brands following a challenging merger in 2015. However, strategic moves such as the removal of synthetic dyes from its food and a continued product innovation have shown a promising valuation opportunity.
Despite the company seeing a sustained decline leading to a $9 billion charge, they remain committed to exploring strategic options including a shakeup of its portfolio. With the company backing its full-year guidance, analysts speculate the earnings reset could signal a period of rebuilding for Kraft Heinz.
