First-Quarter Results

Net sales in the quarter, both as reported and organic, increased 15% versus the prior year to $2.6 billion. The combined impact of inflation-driven pricing and sales allowances more than offset volume declines.

Gross profit increased to $834 million from $722 million in the prior year. As a percent of sales, gross profit margin was 32.4% compared to 32.3% in the prior year. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted gross profit increased to $829 million from $727 million. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted gross profit margin decreased 30 basis points to 32.2% as continued cost inflation and higher other supply chain costs as well as unfavorable volume / mix were mostly mitigated by inflation-driven pricing actions and productivity improvements.

Marketing and selling expenses increased 18% to $201 million and represented approximately 8% of net sales. The increase was driven by higher advertising and consumer promotion expense (A&C), which increased 31% versus moderated levels in the prior year, and higher selling expenses, partially offset by increased benefits from cost savings initiatives.

Administrative expenses, on both a reported and an adjusted basis, increased 1% to $158 million and $155 million, respectively.

Other expenses were $18 million compared to other income of $1 million in the prior year. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted other expenses were $3 million compared to other income of $7 million in the prior year primarily due to lower pension and postretirement benefit income.

As reported EBIT increased to $436 million from $376 million in the prior year. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted EBIT increased 15% compared to the prior year to $449 million primarily due to higher adjusted gross profit, partially offset by higher marketing and selling expenses and higher adjusted other expenses.

Net interest expense was $46 million compared to $47 million in the prior year. The tax rate was 23.8% compared to 20.7% in the prior year. Excluding items impacting comparability, the adjusted tax rate was 23.8% compared to 20.8% in the prior year primarily due to the favorable resolution of several tax matters in the prior year.

As reported EPS increased to $0.99 per share compared to $0.86 per share in the prior year. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted EPS increased $0.13, or 15%, compared to the prior year to $1.02 primarily reflecting the increase in adjusted EBIT, partially offset by a higher adjusted effective tax rate.

Cash flow from operations decreased from $288 million in the prior year to $227 million primarily due to changes in working capital, partially offset by higher cash earnings. Capital expenditures were $77 million compared to $69 million in the prior year. In line with the company's commitment to return value to its shareholders, the company paid $115 million of cash dividends and repurchased common stock of approximately $41 million. At the end of the first quarter, the company had approximately $375 million remaining under the current $500 million strategic share repurchase program and approximately $131 million remaining under its $250 million anti-dilutive share repurchase program.

Cost Savings Program from Continuing Operations

In the first quarter, Campbell achieved $10 million of total savings under its multi-year cost savings program, inclusive of Snyder's-Lance integration synergies, bringing total program-to-date cost savings to $860 million. Campbell remains on track to deliver savings of $1 billion by the end of fiscal 2025.

Full-Year Fiscal 2023 Guidance

Based on the company's strong first quarter results which reflect continued demand for its products and improved supply chain execution, Campbell is raising its full-year fiscal 2023 net sales, adjusted EBIT and adjusted EPS guidance provided on September 1, 2022, while taking into account the volatile economic environment.

The full-year fiscal 2023 guidance is set forth in the table below:

	FY2022 Results	Previous FY2023 Guidance	Updated FY2023 Guidance
($ in millions, except per share)
Net Sales	$8,562	+4% to +6%	+7% to +9%
Organic Net Sales		+4% to +6%	+7% to +9%

Adjusted EBIT	$1,297*	+1% to +5%	+2.5% to +6.5%

Adjusted EPS	$2.85*	0% to +4%	+2% to +5%
		$2.85 to $2.95	$2.90 to $3.00

* Adjusted - refer to the detailed reconciliation of the reported (GAAP) financial information to the adjusted financial information at the end of this news release.

Note: A non-GAAP reconciliation is not provided for fiscal 2023 guidance as the company is unable to reasonably estimate the full-year financial impact of items such as actuarial gains or losses on pension and postretirement plans because these impacts are dependent on future changes in market conditions. The inability to predict the amount and timing of these future items makes a detailed reconciliation of these forward-looking financial measures impracticable.

Note: A detailed reconciliation of the reported (GAAP) net sales to organic net sales is included at the end of this news release.

Meals & Beverages

Net sales, both reported and organic, increased 15% in the quarter primarily due to increases in U.S. retail products, including U.S. soup and Prego pasta sauces, as well as gains in foodservice. Inflation-driven pricing and sales allowances and lower levels of promotional spending were partially offset by volume declines. Sales of U.S. soup increased 11% due to sales increases in ready-to-serve soups, condensed soups and broth.

Operating earnings in the quarter increased 18% primarily due to higher gross profit, partially offset by higher marketing and selling expenses. Gross profit margin increased driven by the impact of inflation-driven pricing actions, supply chain productivity improvements and lower levels of promotional spending, partially offset by higher cost inflation and other supply chain costs and unfavorable volume / mix.

Snacks

Net sales, both reported and organic, increased 15% driven by sales of power brands, which were up 21%. Sales growth was driven by increases in cookies and crackers, primarily Goldfish crackers, and in salty snacks, primarily Snyder's of Hanover pretzels, and both Kettle Brand and Cape Cod potato chips. Inflation-driven pricing and sales allowances were partly offset by volume declines and increased promotional spending relative to moderated levels in the prior-year quarter.

Operating earnings in the quarter increased 20% primarily due to higher gross profit and lower administrative expenses, partially offset by higher marketing and selling expenses. Gross profit margin decreased driven by higher cost inflation and other supply chain costs, unfavorable volume / mix and higher levels of promotional spending, partially offset by the impact of inflation-driven pricing actions and supply chain productivity improvements.

Corporate

Corporate expense was $48 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $32 million in the prior year. Corporate expense in the current quarter included pension actuarial losses of $15 million, costs of $3 million related to cost savings initiatives and unrealized mark-to-market gains on outstanding undesignated commodity hedges of $5 million. Corporate expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 included pension actuarial losses of $6 million, costs of $4 million related to cost savings initiatives and unrealized mark-to-market losses on outstanding undesignated commodity hedges of $3 million. After factoring in these items, the remaining increase in Corporate expense was primarily due to lower pension and postretirement benefit income.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures

First Quarter Ended October 30, 2022

Campbell Soup Company (the "company") uses certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission in certain communications. These non-GAAP financial measures are measures of performance not defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should be considered in addition to, not in lieu of, GAAP reported measures. Management believes that also presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures provides additional information to facilitate comparison of the company's historical operating results and trends in its underlying operating results, and provides transparency on how the company evaluates its business. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the company's performance. Management considers quantitative and qualitative factors in assessing whether to adjust for the impact of items that may be significant or that could affect an understanding of the company's performance and trends in its underlying operating results. The adjustments on earnings may include but are not limited to items such as: unusual or non-recurring gains or charges; restructuring charges and related costs; actuarial gains or losses on pension and postretirement plans; unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses on outstanding undesignated commodity hedges; gains or losses on the extinguishment of debt; gains or losses on divestitures; or impairment charges. Depending upon facts or circumstances, management may change these adjustments. When these adjustments change, the company will provide updated definitions of its non-GAAP financial measures. When items no longer impact the company's current or future presentation of non-GAAP operating results, the company will remove these items from its non-GAAP definitions.

Organic Net Sales

Organic net sales are net sales excluding the impact of currency, acquisitions and divestitures. Management believes that excluding these items, which are not part of the ongoing business, improves the comparability of year-to-year results. A reconciliation of net sales as reported to organic net sales follows.

Items Impacting Earnings

Adjusted Net earnings are net earnings excluding the impact of restructuring charges and related costs, actuarial gains or losses on pension and postretirement plans, unrealized mark-to-market gains or losses on outstanding undesignated commodity hedges, and losses on the extinguishment of debt. Management believes that financial information excluding certain items that are not considered to reflect the ongoing operating results, such as those listed below, improves the comparability of year-to-year results. Consequently, management believes that investors may be able to better understand its results excluding these items.

The following items impacted earnings:

(1)	The company has implemented several cost savings initiatives in recent years.
	In the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the company recorded implementation costs and other related costs of $3 million in Administrative expenses ($.01 per share) related to these initiatives. In the first quarter of fiscal 2022, the company recorded implementation costs and other related costs of $2 million in Administrative expenses and $2 million in Cost of products sold (aggregate impact of $3 million after tax, or $.01 per share) related to these initiatives. For the year ended July 31, 2022, the company recorded Restructuring charges of $5 million and implementation costs and other related costs of $20 million in Administrative expenses, $5 million in Cost of products sold and $1 million in Marketing and selling expenses (aggregate impact of $24 million after tax, or $.08 per share) related to these initiatives.
(2)	In the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the company recognized actuarial losses in Other expenses / (income) of $15 million ($11 million after tax, or $.04 per share). In the first quarter of fiscal 2022, the company recognized actuarial losses in Other expenses / (income) of $6 million ($5 million after tax, or $.01 per share). The actuarial losses related to interim remeasurements of certain pension plans due to lump sum distributions that exceeded or are expected to exceed service and interest costs resulting in settlement accounting for the plans. For the year ended July 31, 2022, the company recognized actuarial losses on pension and postretirement plans in Other expenses / (income) of $44 million ($33 million after tax, or $.11 per share).
(3)	In the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the company recognized gains in Cost of products sold of $5 million ($4 million after tax, or $.01 per share) associated with unrealized mark-to-market adjustments on outstanding undesignated commodity hedges. In the first quarter of fiscal 2022, the company recognized losses in Cost of products sold of $3 million ($2 million after tax, or $.01 per share) associated with unrealized mark-to-market adjustments on outstanding undesignated commodity hedges. For the year ended July 31, 2022, the company recognized losses in Cost of products sold of $59 million ($44 million after tax, or $.15 per share) associated with unrealized mark-to-market adjustments on outstanding undesignated commodity hedges.
(4)	For the year ended July 31, 2022, the company recorded a loss in Interest expense of $4 million ($3 million after tax, or $.01 per share) on the extinguishment of debt.
