The Hershey Company: Fairly Valued, But Cocoa Prices Are Rising
- I rate The Hershey Company (NYSE:) as a HOLD, waiting for the earnings hype to cool down before potentially buying.

Despite strong historical financial growth and dividend performance, the company's future growth may slow, making current valuation fair but without a margin of safety.

Hershey: Cocoa Headwinds Are Priced-In, But There Is A Catch
- The recent decline in Hershey's stock is now largely pricing-in the cost headwinds in 2025.

The business is also in a very delicate situation as far as price increases are concerned, and this could result in more short-term volatility.

Live Nasdaq Coverage: Nasdaq Composite Eyes Correction, TSM Bucks Downward Trend
- The markets are extending yesterday’s tariff-induced sell-off, with all three of the major stock market indices trading deep in the red. The Nasdaq Composite is teetering on correction territory and is only 0.5% away as the tech slump continues. The Trump tariffs are now in effect, including a hefty 25% on Mexico and Canada as well as 20% on China imports. Corporate America is responding amid expectations of retaliatory tariffs that will cut into profits. Taiwan Semiconductor (NYSE: TSM) is bucking the downward trend because it has committed to investing $100 billion in the U.S. on top of its previous commitment of $65 billion in a bid to sidestep tariffs. In a press conference with President Trump, Taiwan Semi CEO C.C. Wei said the company is “producing the most advanced chip made on U.S. soil” in Arizona, where it intends to build another three factories to create the world’s most powerful chips. TSM’s gains are failing to lift broader sentiment, with each of the Magnificent 7 stocks under pressure with the exception of Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL), which is posting fractional gains. Yesterday, Apple CEO Tim Cook teased “something in the Air” that is coming this week. The gold price has been benefiting from the tariff fears and weaker U.S. dollar as investors seek out a hedge of protection asset. The gold price is trading at $2,920 per ounce today. Here’s a look at the performance as of morning trading: Dow Jones Industrial Average: Down 636.35 (-1.4%) Nasdaq Composite: Down 315.06 (-1.68%) S&P 500: Down 92.68 (-1.58%) Key Points Stocks are in freefall as the Trump tariffs take effect. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite is encroaching on correction territory. Taiwan Semi is up on a robust spending plan the CEO outlined for the U.S. market. Market Movers Goldman Sachs has introduced the Goldman Sachs U.S. Large Cap Buffer 3 ETF (GBXC), its latest in a series of funds that are designed to provide downside protection to investors in the current uncertain climate. The buffer fund, as it’s known, will be reset on a quarterly basis and is designed to protect investors against losses between 5% and 15% in the corresponding S&P 500 ETF. Consumer stocks like Hershey (NYSE: HSY), McDonald’s (NYSE: MCD) and PepsiCo (NYSE: PEP) are all gaining ground as investors shift to a risk-off appetite. Tesla (Nasdaq: TSLA) is spiraling nearly 8% on the day as it continues its whipsaw performance of late. Weak China sales are to blame, as the company’s China-manufactured vehicle sales drop to their lowest level in three years. Tesla’s performance is the result of China’s EV pricing wars that have come as a result of heightened competition in the country.

Hershey thinks there will be trick-or-treating this Halloween despite COVID-19
- Hershey Co. is confident that consumers will want to take their kids trick-or-treating this Halloween despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. "It is an outdoor event. And it's an event where a lot of masks are already worn," said Michelle Buck, Hershey's chief executive on the company's recent second-quarter earnings call, according to a FactSet transcript. "There's no evidence of the virus being passed through packaging or food, so we feel pretty good based on what we're seeing so far from consumer feedback." Hershey reported a profit that beat expectations, but sales fell short. Hershey has already started shipping Halloween orders, Buck said, with shipments continuing through early October. Hershey didn't provide 2020 guidance due to the uncertainty caused by the pandemic, and Buck leaves the door open for a shift between now and Halloween. "[I]f trick-or-treat tends to be a little lower than expectation, clearly, we'll focus even more on the treat for me and the candy bowl occasion," she said. About half of the Halloween product sold is for "self-consumption," and some of the product has already shifted to "everyday packaging." Stifel analysts think that most of the orders for Halloween are set, but will still keep an eye on developments given the surge in coronavirus cases and lockdown measures. Analysts note that Halloween accounts for 10% of the company's sales and 40% of third-quarter sales. Stifel rates Hershey stock hold with a $140 price target. Hershey stock is down 0.3% for the year to date while the S&P 500 index is up 0.3% for the period.

Hershey profit beats estimates as sales fall short
- Hershey Co. said Thursday it had net income of $268.9 million, or $1.29 a share, in the second quarter, down from $313.3 million, or $1.48 a share, in the year-earlier period. Adjusted per-share earnings came to $1.31, ahead of the $1.12 FactSet consensus. The chocolate maker's sales fell to $1.707 billion from $1.767 billion, below the $1.740 billion FactSet consensus. "The impact of recent spikes in coronavirus cases on consumer mobility, retail operations, government regulations, and the macroeconomic environment, however, remains unclear," the company said in a statement. "As a result, the company is not providing new fiscal 2020 guidance at this time." The company expects sales to pick up in the second half, due to momentum exiting the second quarter. In North America, it expects elevated at-home consumption and the replenishment of retailer and distributor inventory levels to boost sales. Its international segment will continue to be pressured by less duty-free sales given current travel trends, government and macro trends. Shares rose 1.1% premarket, but are down 6% in the year to date, while the S&P 500 has gained 1.4%.

Hershey hopeful COVID-19 will not haunt Halloween sales
- The period around the October holiday is Hershey's busiest time of the year, making up about 10% of the company's annual sales, as kids and their parents stock up on Twizzlers, Jolly Ranchers and Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.But with the COVID-19 pandemic showing no signs of slowing in the United States, analysts have cautioned that demand could suffer this year, with people being hesitant to send their children door-to-door for candy. Buck said retailers have been making Halloween orders since May and if people were hesitant to go outdoors in October, the company would focus instead on self-consumption products such as candy bowls. Hershey said it expects sales to accelerate in the coming months.

Hershey Reports Second-Quarter 2020 Financial Results; Provides 2020 Business Update
- HERSHEY, Pa., July 23, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Hershey Company (NYSE: HSY) today announced net sales and earnings for the second quarter ended June 28, 2020. Second-Quarter 2020 Financial Results Summary1 * Consolidated net sales of $1,707.3 million, a decrease of 3.4%. * Organic, constant currency net sales decreased 3.5%. * The net impact of acquisitions and divestitures on net sales was a 0.8 point benefit, while foreign currency exchange was a 0.7 point headwind. * Reported net income of $268.9 million, or $1.29 per share-diluted, a decrease of 12.8%. * Adjusted earnings per share-diluted of $1.31, flat versus the same period a year ago.1 All comparisons for the second quarter of 2020 are with respect to the second quarter ended June 30, 2019“We delivered profitable sales growth in North America in the second quarter despite the increased complexities presented by the COVID-19 pandemic. Our iconic brands and great execution enabled us to gain 225 basis points of confectionery market share. In addition, strong cost management enabled us to offset many of the COVID-19 related financial pressures and deliver adjusted earnings per share in line with last year,” said Michele Buck, The Hershey Company President and Chief Executive Officer. “I could not be prouder of how the company focused its time and resources on our employees’ physical, emotional and economic well-being while serving the needs of our customers, consumers and communities during this difficult time. We are encouraged by the improvements in our business performance and the momentum we have exiting the second quarter. We believe our great brands, advantaged margin structure, strong supply chain, and agile investment mindset will enable us to deliver solid stockholder returns going forward.” 2020 Full-Year Financial Outlook Summary The operating environment continues to evolve, and the company’s performance improved over the course of the second quarter. The impact of recent spikes in coronavirus cases on consumer mobility, retail operations, government regulations, and the macroeconomic environment, however, remains unclear. As a result, the company is not providing new fiscal 2020 guidance at this time. The company does expect accelerated sales growth in the second half of the year based on momentum exiting the second quarter, assuming no significant disruption to current consumer trends. The company also expects pricing and cost management to drive margin expansion in the second half of the year. We remain confident that our healthy balance sheet and strong cash flow will enable us to meet current business needs, invest for the future and return cash to stockholders.In the North America segment, the company expects stronger second half sales growth driven by continued elevated at-home consumption, price realization, the replenishment of retailer and distributor inventory levels, and recovering sales in food service and specialty retail channels. The company does not currently expect seasonal performance to have a material effect on second half financial results, though the ramifications of a resurgence of COVID-19 cases on consumer participation in seasonal activities and the resulting retail impact remains uncertain.In the International and Other segment, the company expects a slower recovery given current travel, retail, government and macroeconomic trends. Sales trends are expected to improve versus the second quarter; however, will fall short in the second half versus the prior year by double digits.The company expects: * An adjusted effective tax rate of approximately 16 to 17 percent; and * Total cash returns to stockholders of approximately $800 million, comprised of dividends of approximately $650 million and share repurchases of $150 million completed earlier this year.In addition, the company now expects foreign currency exchange to be a 70 basis point headwind on full year net revenue based on current exchange rates.The company reaffirms its long-term financial objectives and capital allocation priorities remain unchanged.Second-Quarter 2020 Results Consolidated net sales were $1,707.3 million in the second quarter of 2020 versus $1,767.2 million in the year ago period, a decrease of 3.4%. Volume was a 7.0 point headwind, driven by COVID-19 pressures in the company’s International and Other segment and price elasticity in North America. Foreign currency exchange was a 0.7 point headwind. Price realization partially offset these declines, providing 3.5 points of net benefit for the second quarter. The net impact of acquisitions and divestitures was a 0.8 point benefit driven by the acquisition of ONE Brands.The company’s second-quarter 2020 results, as prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), included items positively impacting comparability of $3.8 million, or $0.02 per share-diluted, as outlined in the table below. For the second quarter of 2019, items negatively impacting comparability totaled $39.7 million, or $0.17 per share-diluted.Reported gross margin was 46.4% in the second quarter of 2020, compared to 49.5% in the second quarter of 2019, a decrease of 310 basis points. The decline reflects a higher derivative mark-to-market commodity gain in the prior period. Adjusted gross margin was 46.4% in the second quarter of 2020, compared to 46.5% in the second quarter of 2019, a decrease of 10 basis points as price realization gains were more than offset by incremental COVID-19 manufacturing costs and unfavorable mix.Selling, marketing and administrative expenses decreased 9.9% in the second quarter of 2020 versus the second quarter of 2019 driven by media cost efficiencies and brand investment optimization related to COVID-19. Advertising and related consumer marketing expenses decreased 14.0% in the second quarter of 2020 versus the same period last year driven by media cost efficiencies and select brand investment optimization related to COVID-19 sales trends. Selling, marketing and administrative expenses, excluding advertising and related consumer marketing, decreased 7.6% versus the second quarter of 2019. This decrease was driven by savings in travel and meeting expenses due to COVID-19 related travel restrictions and lower incentive compensation costs.Second-quarter 2020 reported operating profit of $383.4 million decreased 6.5% versus the second quarter of 2019, resulting in an operating profit margin of 22.5%, a decrease of 70 basis points. This decrease was driven by lower gross profit due to the previously mentioned higher derivative mark-to-market commodity gain in the prior period. Adjusted operating profit of $386.1 million increased 4.4% versus the second quarter of 2019. This resulted in an adjusted operating profit margin of 22.6%, an increase of 170 basis points versus the second quarter of 2019 as strong corporate and operational cost management more than offset incremental COVID-19 costs.The effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2020 was 19.8%, an increase of 610 basis points versus the second quarter of 2019. The adjusted tax rate in the second quarter of 2020 was 19.4%, an increase of 460 basis points versus the second quarter of 2019. Both the effective and adjusted tax rate increases were driven by a prior year benefit recognized in conjunction with valuation allowance releases in select international markets. The following table presents a summary of items impacting comparability in each period (see Appendix I for additional information): Pre-Tax (millions) Earnings Per Share-Diluted Three Months Ended Three Months Ended June 28, 2020 June 30, 2019 June 28, 2020 June 30, 2019 Derivative Mark-to-Market Losses (Gains)$0.5 $(53.5) $— $(0.25) Business Realignment Activities1.3 6.4 0.01 0.03 Acquisition-Related Activities(0.6) 2.3 — 0.01 Pension Settlement Charges Relating to Company-Directed Initiatives1.9 — 0.01 — Long-Lived Asset Impairment Charges1.6 4.7 — 0.02 Noncontrolling Interest Share of Business Realignment and Impairment Charges(0.9) 0.4 (0.01) — Tax effect of all adjustments reflected above— — 0.01 0.02 $3.8 $(39.7) $0.02 $(0.17) The following are comments about segment performance for the second quarter of 2020 versus the year-ago period. See the schedule of supplementary information within this press release for additional information on segment net sales and profit.North America (U.S. and Canada) Hershey’s North America net sales were $1,583.8 million in the second quarter of 2020, an increase of 1.0% versus the same period last year. Price realization was a 4.2 point benefit and the net impact of acquisitions and divestitures was a 0.8 point benefit. Volume and foreign currency exchange were a 3.8 point and 0.2 point headwind, respectively. Total Hershey U.S. retail takeaway for the 12 weeks ended June 28, 20204 in the expanded multi-outlet combined plus convenience store channels (IRI MULO + C-Stores) increased 4.1% versus the prior-year period. Hershey’s U.S. candy, mint and gum retail takeaway increased 3.2%, resulting in a category market share gain of 225 basis points. Sales for Hershey’s baking items, including peanut butter, syrup, chips, and cocoa grew 41%, contributing a point to the company's overall U.S. retail takeaway. Gross margin expanded 20 basis points as strong net price realization more than offset incremental COVID-19 manufacturing costs and unfavorable mix. North America advertising and related consumer marketing expenses decreased by 10.8% in the second quarter of 2020 versus the same period last year driven by media cost efficiencies and brand investment optimization related to COVID-19. These gross margin gains and prudent cost management resulted in a segment income increase of 5.7% to $497.
