In other recent news, Flowers Foods reported its first-quarter 2025 earnings, revealing a slight miss on both earnings per share and revenue forecasts. The company posted an EPS of $0.35, falling short of the expected $0.38, and revenue came in at $1.55 billion, below the anticipated $1.6 billion. The earnings miss was attributed to challenging market conditions and a pullback in consumer spending. Jefferies analyst Scott Marks subsequently revised the price target for Flowers Foods, reducing it from $20 to $16, while maintaining a Hold rating. This adjustment reflects the company’s near-term challenges, including weaker performance in its private label and away-from-home segments. Additionally, Flowers Foods held its Annual Meeting of Shareholders, where all 11 director-nominees were elected, and the compensation of the company’s named executive officers was approved. The appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the company’s independent registered public accounting firm was also ratified. However, a proposal for an independent board chair was not approved. These developments indicate a complex market environment for Flowers Foods, with ongoing efforts to align with shareholder interests and navigate industry challenges.
