Post Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/post#NYSE">POST</a>) is propelled by strategic initiatives amid a volatile consumer landscape marked by inflation, evolving preferences, and heightened competition in the staples sector. The company&#39;s established brand presence enables it to maintain a stable market position in the sector known for steady demand, as consumer staples are essential in daily life.
A major factor behind this success was the Post Consumer Brands segment, which experienced a 15.7% year-over-year increase in net sales, largely driven by $428.9 million from acquisitions.
Over the past three months, POST&#39;s stock has gained 12%, outpacing the industry&#39;s growth of 7.3%.

<h2>Factors Driving Post Holdings&#39; Momentum</h2>
Post Holdings has been capitalizing on strategic pricing actions to offset inflationary pressures, a trend that persisted in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. The company&#39;s top and bottom lines experienced growth, driven by higher average net selling prices, particularly in the Post Consumer Brands segment. This pricing strategy has played a critical role in bolstering the company&#39;s performance and is likely to remain a key driver of growth in the coming quarters.
Moving on to the Weetabix segment, it recorded notable growth of 1.4% in net sales, supported by the Deeside acquisition and a modest foreign currency tailwind of 80 basis points from a stronger British pound. This growth reflects the positive impact of strategic acquisitions and favorable currency movements.
Strategic acquisitions have been crucial for Post Holdings in broadening its market reach and solidifying its market position. In December 2023, Post Holdings acquired Perfection Pet, integrating it into its Post Consumer Brands segment. Additionally, on April 28, 2023, Post Holdings acquired a select pet food brand from The J.M. Smucker Co. This acquisition provides Post Holdings with a strategic entry into the burgeoning and lucrative pet food market, enhancing its presence in this growing category.
The third quarter of 2024 was marked by strong sales of branded and big cereal products, notable outperformance in the pet category against our underwriting case, and a substantial improvement in the value-added egg mix. It is envisioned that these favorable trends will continue throughout fiscal 2025.
<h2>POST Faces Some Concerns in the Near Term</h2>
Post Holdings has experienced a rise in SG&amp;A costs over recent quarters. In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, SG&amp;A expenses grew by 7.8%. This increase was due to ongoing targeted marketing investments in retail businesses. This increase was significantly influenced by the inclusion of Pet Food in the company&#39;s portfolio.
The Refrigerated Retail segment of Post Holdings reported a 7.1% decrease in net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Volumes decreased by 0.5%, and average net prices dropped due to increased trade promotions and a portfolio shift towards dinner sides. Adjusted EBITDA decreased by 37%, impacted by lower net pricing and higher selling costs.
While Post Holdings has demonstrated strong performance in certain areas, such as strategic pricing and acquisitions, challenges persist in segments like Refrigerated Retail. Maintaining positions in the stock appears prudent as it allows investors to stay engaged with the company while monitoring its ability to address current challenges and capitalize on growth opportunities.
Post Holdings currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).

Decoding 7 Analyst Evaluations For Pilgrims Pride

When deciding whether to buy, sell, or hold a stock, investors often rely on analyst recommendations. Media reports about rating changes by these brokerage-firm-employed (or sell-side) analysts often influence a stock&#39;s price, but are they really important?
Let&#39;s take a look at what these Wall Street heavyweights have to say about Pilgrim&#39;s Pride (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ppc#NYSE">PPC</a>) before we discuss the reliability of brokerage recommendations and how to use them to your advantage.
Pilgrim&#39;s Pride currently has an average brokerage recommendation of 1.80, on a scale of 1 to 5 (Strong Buy to Strong Sell), calculated based on the actual recommendations (Buy, Hold, Sell, etc.) made by five brokerage firms. An ABR of 1.80 approximates between Strong Buy and Buy.
Of the five recommendations that derive the current ABR, three are Strong Buy, representing 60% of all recommendations.
<h2>Brokerage Recommendation Trends for PPC</h2>
<img alt="Broker Rating Breakdown Chart for PPC" class="chart" src="https://staticx-tuner.zacks.com/images/yesopchart/brokerage_bar/PPC_08062024.png" style="width:100%" title="" /> 
The ABR suggests buying Pilgrim&#39;s Pride, but making an investment decision solely on the basis of this information might not be a good idea. According to several studies, brokerage recommendations have little to no success guiding investors to choose stocks with the most potential for price appreciation.
Do you wonder why? As a result of the vested interest of brokerage firms in a stock they cover, their analysts tend to rate it with a strong positive bias. According to our research, brokerage firms assign five &quot;Strong Buy&quot; recommendations for every &quot;Strong Sell&quot; recommendation.
In other words, their interests aren&#39;t always aligned with retail investors, rarely indicating where the price of a stock could actually be heading. Therefore, the best use of this information could be validating your own research or an indicator that has proven to be highly successful in predicting a stock&#39;s price movement.
With an impressive externally audited track record, our proprietary stock rating tool, the Zacks Rank, which classifies stocks into five groups, ranging from Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) to Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell), is a reliable indicator of a stock&#39;s near -term price performance. So, validating the Zacks Rank with ABR could go a long way in making a profitable investment decision.
<h2>Zacks Rank Should Not Be Confused With ABR</h2>
In spite of the fact that Zacks Rank and ABR both appear on a scale from 1 to 5, they are two completely different measures.
The ABR is calculated solely based on brokerage recommendations and is typically displayed with decimals (example: 1.28). In contrast, the Zacks Rank is a quantitative model allowing investors to harness the power of earnings estimate revisions. It is displayed in whole numbers -- 1 to 5.
Analysts employed by brokerage firms have been and continue to be overly optimistic with their recommendations. Since the ratings issued by these analysts are more favorable than their research would support because of the vested interest of their employers, they mislead investors far more often than they guide.
In contrast, the Zacks Rank is driven by earnings estimate revisions. And near-term stock price movements are strongly correlated with trends in earnings estimate revisions, according to empirical research.
In addition, the different Zacks Rank grades are applied proportionately to all stocks for which brokerage analysts provide current-year earnings estimates. In other words, this tool always maintains a balance among its five ranks.
There is also a key difference between the ABR and Zacks Rank when it comes to freshness. When you look at the ABR, it may not be up-to-date. Nonetheless, since brokerage analysts constantly revise their earnings estimates to reflect changing business trends, and their actions get reflected in the Zacks Rank quickly enough, it is always timely in predicting future stock prices.
<h2>Is PPC a Good Investment?</h2>
In terms of earnings estimate revisions for Pilgrim&#39;s Pride, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the current year has increased 12.7% over the past month to $4.79.
Analysts&#39; growing optimism over the company&#39;s earnings prospects, as indicated by strong agreement among them in revising EPS estimates higher, could be a legitimate reason for the stock to soar in the near term.
The size of the recent change in the consensus estimate, along with three other factors related to earnings estimates, has resulted in a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) for Pilgrim&#39;s Pride.
Therefore, the Buy-equivalent ABR for Pilgrim&#39;s Pride may serve as a useful guide for investors.
