<h3>The Importance of Insider Transactions</h3>
Insider transactions shouldn't be used primarily to make an investing decision, however an insider transaction can be an important factor in the investing decision. 
In legal terms, an "insider" refers to any officer, director, or beneficial owner of more than ten percent of a company's equity securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This can include executives in the c-suite and large hedge funds. These insiders are required to let the public know of their transactions via a Form 4 filing, which must be filed within two business days of the transaction.
When a company insider makes a new purchase, that is an indication that they expect the stock to rise.
Insider sells, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean that the seller thinks the stock will go down. 
<h3>Transaction Codes To Focus On</h3>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">Investors</a> prefer focusing on transactions that take place in the open market, indicated in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 indicates a purchase, while S indicates a sale. Transaction code C indicates the conversion of an option, and transaction code A indicates the insider may have been forced to sell shares in order to receive compensation that had been promised upon being hired by the company.

<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?utm_source=insights">According to Benzinga Pro,</a> during Q4, National Beverage (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FIZZ#NASDAQ">FIZZ</a>) earned $36.30 million, a 5.65% increase from the preceding quarter.

<h3>What Is Return On Capital Employed?</h3>
Return on Capital Employed is a measure of yearly pre-tax profit relative to capital employed by a business. Changes in earnings and sales indicate shifts in a company's ROCE. A higher ROCE is generally representative of successful growth of a company and is a sign of higher earnings per share in the future. A low or negative ROCE suggests the opposite. In Q4, National Beverage posted an ROCE of 0.1%.
Keep in mind, while ROCE is a good measure of a company's recent performance, it is not a highly reliable predictor of a company's earnings or sales in the near future. 
ROCE is a powerful metric for comparing the effectiveness of capital allocation for similar companies. A relatively high ROCE shows National Beverage is potentially operating at a higher level of efficiency than other companies in its industry. If the company is generating high profits with its current level of capital, some of that money can be reinvested in more capital which will generally lead to higher returns and, ultimately, earnings per share (EPS) growth. 
For National Beverage, the positive return on capital employed ratio of 0.1% suggests that management is allocating their capital effectively. Effective capital allocation is a positive indicator that a company will achieve more durable success and favorable long-term returns.
<h3>Upcoming Earnings Estimate</h3>
National Beverage reported Q4 earnings per share at $0.39/share, which did not meet analyst predictions of $0.39/share.

National Beverage: Growth Fizzing Out With Questionable Earnings Quality

As the food and beverage industry transitions, companies with strong regional presence are thriving amidst shifting consumer trends and rising online grocery demand. With robust market dominance, fundamentally solid food & beverage stocks Lancaster Colony (LANC), Cal-Maine Foods (CALM), and National Beverage (FIZZ) present promising investment opportunities. Keep reading... As consumer preferences and industry dynamics evolve, the food and beverage sector continues to show promising investment opportunities, particularly among companies with strong regional presence.
Therefore, solid food &amp; beverage stocks Lancaster Colony Corporation (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/LANC/">LANC</a>), Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/CALM/">CALM</a>), and National Beverage Corp. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/FIZZ/">FIZZ</a>) could be ideal picks. These stocks excel due to regional strength, innovative products, and adaptability to changing consumer demands, making them attractive options for investors targeting growth in the food and beverage sector.
The food and beverage market remains resilient amid persistent macroeconomic challenges, driven by evolving consumer preferences, advancements in digital technologies such as AI and ML, and the growth of the global population, which together create compelling opportunities for the industry.
According to recent data, the global food delivery market generated over <a href="https://www.statista.com/markets/423/topic/451/food-beverage/#statistic2">$1 trillion</a> in 2023, with $640 billion from grocery delivery alone. Despite the rise of convenience stores, supermarkets and grocery stores dominate, holding 85% of the market in 2022.
Further, the growing demand for online shopping has significantly boosted food and beverage sales, increasing their share of total retail e-commerce from 9.3% in 2017 to nearly 16% in 2023. This trend is expected to continue, with projections indicating a rise to <a href="https://www.statista.com/topics/1660/food-retail/#topicOverview">21.5% by 2027</a>.
Given these favorable trends, let's take a closer look at the food and beverage stocks:

On November 18, 2024, LANC announced the $75 million acquisition of a sauce and dressing production facility in Atlanta, Georgia, to enhance operational efficiency, expand capacity, and improve customer proximity.
On November 6, LANC declared a quarterly dividend of 95 cents per share, payable on December 31, 2024. It pays an annual dividend of $3.80, which translates to a dividend yield of 2.04% at the prevailing price levels.

In addition, the company's net income and net income per common share came in at $44.70 million and $1.62, up 1.7% and 1.9% over the prior-year quarter, respectively.
Analysts expect LANC's EPS and revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, to increase 3.7% and 2.1% year-over-year to $1.94 and $495.90 million, respectively.
