The Kraft Heinz Company (Nasdaq: KHC) (“Kraft Heinz” or the
“Company”) today reported financial results for the second quarter
of 2024.
“Our second quarter net sales growth came in lower than
originally anticipated, as consumer sentiment remains cautious,”
said Kraft Heinz CEO Carlos Abrams-Rivera. “While we are now
expecting a more gradual top-line improvement in the back half of
the year, we continue to unlock efficiencies that are allowing us
to make accretive investments in our brands, grow profits, and
drive future sales growth.
“As we enter the second half of 2024, many drivers are giving us
optimism for improved top-line trends. We are anticipating a
continued ramp up of both innovation and renovation, particularly
in North America Retail, and we are increasing our marketing
investment to continue to drive brand superiority across our
portfolio. In Away From Home and Emerging Markets, we expect to
increase distribution through our go-to-market strategy and global
activations. Finally, understanding that the consumer is looking
for value, we will selectively increase investments in
promotions.”
Abrams-Rivera continued, “We remain confident in our strategy
and in the attractive categories in which we compete. We are
committed to managing our business in a disciplined manner that
preserves our ability to drive sustainable, long-term growth.”

Q2 2024 Financial Summary
- Net sales decreased 3.6 percent versus the year-ago
period to $6.5 billion, including a negative 1.0 percentage point
impact from foreign currency and a negative 0.2 percentage point
impact from divestitures. Organic Net Sales(1) decreased 2.4
percent versus the prior year period. Price increased 1.0
percentage points versus the prior year period, with increases in
the North America and Emerging Markets segments partially offset by
lower price in International Developed Markets. Favorable price was
primarily due to pricing taken in certain categories to mitigate
higher input costs. Volume/mix declined 3.4 percentage points
versus the prior year period, with declines in the North America
and International Developed Markets segments partially offset by
volume/mix growth in Emerging Markets. Unfavorable volume/mix was
primarily due to waning consumer sentiment.
- Operating Income decreased 62.1 percent versus the
year-ago period to $0.5 billion, primarily driven by non-cash
impairment losses of $854 million in the current year period.
Adjusted Operating Income(1) increased 2.0 percent versus
the year-ago period to $1.4 billion, primarily driven by gross
savings, including lower commodity and logistics costs, and higher
pricing. This more than offset unfavorable volume/mix, increased
selling, general and administrative expenses primarily driven by
investments in marketing and technology, and an unfavorable impact
from foreign currency (0.7 pp).
- Diluted EPS was $0.08, down 90.1 percent versus the
prior year period, primarily driven by non-cash impairment losses
in the current year period. Adjusted EPS(1) was $0.78, down
1.3 percent versus the prior year period, primarily driven by
lapping a one-time tax benefit in the prior year associated with a
net decrease in uncertain tax position reserves. The lapping of
this one-time tax benefit more than offset higher Adjusted
Operating Income, fewer shares outstanding, and favorable changes
in other expense/(income).
- Year-to-date net cash provided by/(used for) operating
activities was $1.7 billion, up 8.1 percent versus the year-ago
period. This increase was primarily due to favorable improvements
in working capital, predominantly within inventory and accounts
payable, as well as higher Adjusted Operating Income. These impacts
were partially offset by higher cash outflows for variable
compensation in the 2024 period compared to the 2023 period.
Free Cash Flow(1) was $1.2 billion, up 8.7 percent versus
the prior year period, driven by the same net cash provided
by/(used for) operating activities discussed above. These factors
more than offset an increase of $35 million in capital expenditures
in the current year.
- Capital Return: Year to date, the Company paid $969
million in cash dividends and repurchased $537 million of common
stock. Of the $537 million in share repurchases in 2024, $350
million were repurchased under the Company’s publicly announced
share repurchase program and $187 million were purchased to offset
the dilutive effect of equity-based compensation. As of June 29,
2024, the Company had remaining authorization to repurchase $2.4
billion of common stock under the publicly announced share
repurchase program.
Outlook
For fiscal year 2024, the Company now expects:
- Organic Net Sales(2) to be down 2 percent to flat versus
the prior year, compared to the previous expectation of 0 to 2
percent growth.
- Adjusted Operating Income(2) growth of 1 to 3 percent
versus the prior year, compared to the previous expectation of 2 to
4 percent growth. This contemplates expected Adjusted Gross Profit
Margin(1)(2) expansion in the range of 75 to 125 basis points
versus the prior year, compared to the previous expectation of 50
to 100 basis points versus the prior year.
- Adjusted EPS(2) growth of 1 to 3 percent, or in the
range of $3.01 to $3.07, which is the same as prior expectations.
The Company continues to expect an effective tax rate on Adjusted
EPS to be in the range of 20 to 22 percent. Additionally, the
Company expects an unfavorable impact of approximately $30 million
within interest expense and other expense/(income) versus the prior
year. The outlook does not contemplate any potential additional
share repurchases in 2024.
End Notes
(1)
Organic Net Sales, Adjusted Gross Profit,
Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted
EPS, and Free Cash Flow are non-GAAP financial measures. Please see
discussion of non-GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations
at the end of this press release for more information.
(2)
Guidance for Organic Net Sales, Adjusted
Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Operating Income, and Adjusted EPS is
provided on a non-GAAP basis only because certain information
necessary to calculate the most comparable GAAP measure is
unavailable due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty of
predicting the occurrence and the future financial statement impact
of such items impacting comparability, including, but not limited
to, the impact of currency, acquisitions and divestitures,
divestiture-related license income, restructuring activities, deal
costs, unrealized losses/(gains) on commodity hedges, impairment
losses, certain non-ordinary course legal and regulatory matters,
equity award compensation expense, nonmonetary currency
devaluation, and debt prepayment and extinguishment
(benefit)/costs, among other items. Therefore, as a result of the
uncertainty and variability of the nature and amount of future
adjustments, which could be significant, the Company is unable to
provide a reconciliation of these measures without unreasonable
effort.

We use our investor relations website, ir.kraftheinzcompany.com, as a routine channel for
distribution of important, and often material, information about
Kraft Heinz, including quarterly and annual earnings results and
presentations, press releases and other announcements, webcasts,
analyst presentations, investor days, sustainability initiatives,
financial information, and corporate governance practices, as well
as archives of past presentations and events. We encourage you to
follow our investor relations website in addition to our filings
with the SEC to receive timely information about the Company. The
information on our website is not part of this press release and
shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any
filings we make with the SEC.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The non-GAAP financial measures provided in this press release
should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for,
results prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
To supplement the financial information provided, the Company
has presented Organic Net Sales, Adjusted Operating Income,
Constant Currency Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Gross Profit,
Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Net Income/(Loss), Adjusted
EPS, Free Cash Flow, and Net Leverage which are considered non-GAAP
financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures presented may
differ from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures presented
by other companies, and other companies may not define these
non-GAAP financial measures in the same way. These measures are not
substitutes for their comparable GAAP financial measures, such as
net sales, net income/(loss), gross profit, diluted earnings per
share (“EPS”), net cash provided by/(used for) operating
activities, or other measures prescribed by GAAP, and there are
limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures.
Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to assist in
comparing the Company’s performance on a consistent basis for
purposes of business decision making by removing the impact of
certain items that management believes do not directly reflect the
Company’s underlying operations. The Company believes:
- Organic Net Sales, Adjusted Operating Income, Constant Currency
Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross
Profit Margin, Adjusted Net Income/(Loss), and Adjusted EPS provide
important comparability of underlying operating results, allowing
investors and management to assess the Company’s operating
performance on a consistent basis; and
- Free Cash Flow and Net Leverage provide measures of the
Company’s core operating performance, the cash-generating
capabilities of the Company’s business operations, and are factors
used in determining the Company’s borrowing capacity and the amount
of cash available for debt repayments, dividends, acquisitions,
share repurchases, and other corporate purposes.
Management believes that presenting the Company’s non-GAAP
financial measures is useful to investors because it (i) provides
investors with meaningful supplemental information regarding
financial performance by excluding certain items, (ii) permits
investors to view performance using the same tools that management
uses to budget, make operating and strategic decisions, and
evaluate historical performance, and (iii) otherwise provides
supplemental information that may be useful to investors in
evaluating the Company’s results. The Company believes that the
presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered
together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures and the
reconciliations to those measures, provides investors with
additional understanding of the factors and trends affecting the
Company’s business than could be obtained absent these
disclosures.
Definitions
Organic Net Sales is defined as net sales excluding, when
they occur, the impact of currency, acquisitions and divestitures,
and a 53rd week of shipments. The Company calculates the impact of
currency on net sales by holding exchange rates constant at the
previous year's exchange rate, with the exception of highly
inflationary subsidiaries, for which the Company calculates the
previous year's results using the current year's exchange rate.
Adjusted Operating Income is defined as operating
income/(loss) excluding, when they occur, the impacts of
restructuring activities, deal costs, unrealized gains/(losses) on
commodity hedges (the unrealized gains and losses are recorded in
general corporate expenses until realized; once realized, the gains
and losses are recorded in the applicable segment’s operating
results), impairment losses, and certain non-ordinary course legal
and regulatory matters. The Company also presents Adjusted
Operating Income on a constant currency basis (Constant Currency
Adjusted Operating Income). The Company calculates the impact
of currency on Adjusted Operating Income by holding exchange rates
constant at the previous year's exchange rate, with the exception
of highly inflationary subsidiaries, for which it calculates the
previous year's results using the current year's exchange rate.
Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Net Income/(Loss), and
Adjusted EPS are defined as gross profit, net income/(loss),
and diluted earnings per share, respectively, excluding, when they
occur, the impacts of restructuring activities, deal costs,
unrealized losses/(gains) on commodity hedges, impairment losses,
certain non-ordinary course legal and regulatory matters,
losses/(gains) on the sale of a business, other losses/(gains)
related to acquisitions and divestitures (e.g., tax and hedging
impacts), nonmonetary currency devaluation (e.g., remeasurement
gains and losses), debt prepayment and extinguishment
(benefit)/costs, and certain significant discrete income tax items
(e.g., U.S. and non-U.S. tax reform), and including when they
occur, adjustments to reflect preferred stock dividend payments on
an accrual basis. Adjusted Gross Profit Margin is defined as
Adjusted Gross Profit divided by net sales.
Net Leverage is defined as debt less cash, cash
equivalents and short-term investments divided by Adjusted EBITDA.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income/(loss) from
continuing operations before interest expense, other
expense/(income), provision for/(benefit from) income taxes, and
depreciation and amortization (excluding restructuring activities);
in addition to these adjustments, the Company excludes, when they
occur, the impacts of divestiture-related license income,
restructuring activities, deal costs, unrealized losses/(gains) on
commodity hedges, impairment losses, certain non-ordinary course
legal and regulatory matters, and equity award compensation expense
(excluding restructuring activities).
Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by/(used
for) operating activities less capital expenditures. The use of
this non-GAAP measure does not imply or represent the residual cash
flow for discretionary expenditures since the Company has certain
non-discretionary obligations such as debt service that are not
deducted from the measure.
