A review of of the company's G&A and operating cost structures was expected to yield a $35 million annual cost savings opportunity over three years.
The non-executive Chair of the Board, Mary Kay Haben, said that CEO candidates are being vetted and that an update on the search process would be provided "as soon as it is warranted."
Chief Financial Officer Mark Hood commented, "Our third-quarter results reflect improved net sales in both our Bob Evans Restaurants and BEF Foods business segments. The improvement in sales combined with lower sow costs and improved plant efficiencies at BEF Foods led to solid profit growth at BEF Foods in the third quarter. While Bob Evans Restaurants' same-store sales increased 3.8 percent in the quarter, higher discounting, food, and labor costs resulted in a decline in the segment's operating income, demonstrating the challenges we face in turning around performance."
