Post Holdings beats Q4 estimates, issues fiscal 2025 outlook

  • November 15, 2024

ST. LOUIS - Post Holdings Inc. (NYSE: POST ) reported fourth quarter earnings that surpassed analyst expectations, as revenue growth offset higher costs.

Post Holdings stock was flat in after-hours trading following the earnings release.

The consumer packaged goods company posted adjusted earnings per share of $1.53 for the quarter ended September 30, beating the consensus estimate of $1.21. Revenue rose 3.3% year-over-year to $2.01 billion, also topping forecasts of $1.96 billion.

Post's net sales increase was driven primarily by its Foodservice segment, which saw volume growth and a shift to higher value-added products. This offset declines in the Post Consumer Brands and Refrigerated Retail segments.

For fiscal 2025, Post expects adjusted EBITDA between $1.41 billion and $1.46 billion. The company also forecasts capital expenditures of $380 million to $420 million, including investments in network optimization and pet food capacity.
