OAK BROOK, Ill., May 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- TreeHouse Foods, Inc. (NYSE: THS) today reported financial results for the first quarter of 2025.

"I am grateful to the entire TreeHouse team for its execution this quarter, which resulted in Adjusted EBITDA that exceeded the upper-end of our guidance range," said Steve Oakland, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and President. "We restored production capacity at our Brantford frozen griddle facility and implemented plans to drive margin and execution consistent with our focus on profitability and cash flow growth. I continue to believe private brands are well positioned to offer value to our customers and the consumer."

Mr. Oakland continued, "As we look ahead, we are remaining steadfast in the plan I articulated last quarter. We are controlling the controllables and ensuring that we provide best in class service for our retail customers at a time when they need us. These actions have and will enable us to grow profits and cash flow regardless of the environment and position the business for significant operating leverage when our categories return to higher growth rates."

 

FIRST QUARTER 2025 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Net Sales — Net sales for the first quarter of 2025 totaled $792.0 million compared to $820.7 million for the same period last year, a decrease of $28.7 million, or 3.5%. The change in net sales from 2024 to 2025 was due to the following:

Total change in adjusted net sales(1)


(3.2) %

The net sales decrease of 3.5% was primarily due to unfavorable volume/mix related to planned margin management actions, broader macroeconomic consumption trends, and service impacts related to the voluntary recall of frozen griddle products. Additionally, the RTD business exit contributed to the decrease. This was partially offset by the acquisition of the private brand tea business, favorable pricing to recover commodity inflation, and distribution gains.
