<h2>Industry: Natural Food</h2>
Companies in the Zacks Natural Foods Products industry have been reaping the benefits of growing consumer health awareness and the rising demand for nutritious, wholesome products. To capitalize on this trend, many companies are expanding their product lines with innovative offerings and strategic acquisitions. Some industry players are increasing investments in digital capabilities to enhance customer engagement and streamline operations.
Despite the challenges posed by rising operating expenses, natural food companies are taking proactive steps to address cost inflation, particularly through strategic pricing initiatives. These positive factors bode well for companies like Performance Food Group Co.&nbsp;(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/pfgc#NYSE">PFGC</a>), Sprouts Farmers Market, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/sfm#NASDAQ">SFM</a>) and SpartanNash Co.&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/sptn#NASDAQ">SPTN</a>).
<h2>About the Industry</h2>
The Zacks Natural Foods Products industry comprises companies that manufacture and sell a wide range of organic and natural fruits, vegetables, dairy products, flour, bakery items, meat and seafood, as well as spices and condiments.

Some companies offer comfort food items like ice cream and soups. A few players provide personal care products as well as health supplements. The firms operating in this space sell their products mostly through wholesalers, distributors, large retail organizations, grocery chains, mass merchandisers, drug stores and e-commerce service providers. Some also cater to food service channels, including restaurants, cafes and hotels. Others offer services to schools, hospitals and industry caterers. Some players operate through independent retail stores.
<h2>Major Trends Shaping the Future of the Natural Food Industry</h2>
Shift Toward Healthier Eating Habits: Consumers are increasingly opting for nutritious and natural food choices, driving demand for fresh and organic products.

Restaurants and cafes are also responding by incorporating more wholesome ingredients into their menus to meet the preferences of health-conscious customers. Industry experts predict that the focus on healthier food options will persist, supporting the continued popularity of fresh and organic offerings.
Expanding Product Lines and Market Reach: Companies are diversifying their offerings and expanding market reach through strategic partnerships, acquisitions and retail growth. A key focus has been on research and development to create convenient, flavorful home-cooking options with minimal preservatives. Products based on plant-based, gluten-free and keto-friendly ingredients are gaining momentum.
To meet the rising demand for fresh and organic foods, companies are scaling up their production capabilities. The shift toward online shopping has benefited natural food companies, leading to investments in digital transformations, including e-commerce platforms, delivery systems and digital marketing initiatives.
Rising Operating Costs: Companies are facing rising operational expenses, particularly in personnel costs, including wages, salaries, commissions and benefits, which are putting pressure on budgets. Some companies are also seeing increased costs due to new store openings and higher marketing expenditures.

Jim Cramer Doesn't Like Carnival Right Now: Royal Caribbean Is 'The One You Want'

SpartanNash Launched Its Annual In-store And Online Fundraiser Through The SpartanNash Foundation, Benefiting Youth Education Nonprofit Junior Achievement

Performance Food Group Co. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/pfgc#NYSE">PFGC</a>) is one of the largest food service distributors in the United States. The company sources, markets, and delivers food and food-related products through a network of over 150 distribution facilities to over 125,000 businesses in the food service industry. The company is acquiring food service distributor Cheney Brothers for $2.1 billion, which will expand its footprint with restaurant and hospitality customers in the Southeastern region of the United States. The drop in inflation back under 3% and the impending interest rate cuts are positive tailwinds that the market anticipates for the company.
<h2>Disinflation Should Not Be Mistaken for Deflation </h2>
Performance Food Group is a benefactor of disinflation, which is not to be confused with deflation. Disinflation occurs when the rate of inflation slows down, which means prices are still rising but at a slower pace. For example, when inflation drops from 9% to 2.9%, as indicated by the recent July consumer price index (CPI) report. Disinflation eases procurement costs and improves gross margins. It also improves demand and business spending power. Interest rate cuts are meant to be disinflationary.
Deflation occurs when general prices actually fall. This can result in a negative inflation rate, which can be harmful to the economy. Deflation occurs during severe economic downturns.
Performance Food Group operates in the retail/wholesale sector, competing with food distributors such as Sysco Co. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/syy#NYSE">SYY</a>), United Natural Foods Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/unfi#NYSE">UNFI</a>), and SpartanNash Co. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/sptn#NASDAQ">SPTN</a>).
<h2>Performance Food&#39;s Exclusive Portfolio of Brands </h2>
The company has exclusive brands under its Performance Foodservice segment, with categories like Center of Plate (COP) and Seafood. These brands offer&nbsp;beef, poultry, and seafood to high-end luxury steakhouses, fast-food burger joints, and on-the-go food trucks. Its exclusive seafood brands include top-tier Bay Winds, Empire&#39;s Treasure, The Fresh Catch,&nbsp;and World Dock.
Its Bakery &amp; Desserts category carries exclusive products from Heritage Ovens, Sweet Encore, Piancone and Roma gelato, tiramisu, cannoli, and coffee and expresso from Italy. Performance sells thousands of products covering condiments to freshly caught fish from over 100 exclusive brands, including custom-cut meats. Its customers range from restaurants to convenience stores, hotels, schools, universities, retail, senior living, and healthcare facilities.

<h2>PFGC Stock Is Back in an Ascending Parallel Price Channel</h2>
The daily candlestick chart for PFGC shows an ascending price channel pattern. The ascending upper trendline connects the higher highs, and the lower trendline connects the higher lows. While PFGC fell out of the channel before its earnings report, the price gap from $67.34 to $70.73 placed shares firmly back into the channel. The daily relative strength index (RSI) rose to the 70-band. Pullback support levels are at $70.73, $67.34 gap fill, $65.19, and $63.35.
<h2>The Turnaround Is Accelerating </h2>
Performance Food Group reported fiscal Q4 2024 EPS of $1.45, beating consensus estimates of $1.37 by 8 cents. Adjusted EBITDA rose 18.4% to $456.2 million. Revenues rose 2.3% YoY to $15.2 billion versus $15.25 billion. Total case volume grew 1.1% YoY. Organic independent food service case volume rose by 3.7%. Net income rose 10.9% YoY to $166.5 million. Overall, product cost inflation for its food service business rose 2.9% in the quarter. Its Foodservice segment sales rose 4.6% to $7.7 billion. The Vistar segment had a 1.8% drop in net sales to $1.2 billion. The Convenience segment&#39;s net sales dropped by&nbsp; 0.5% YoY to $6.3 billion.
<h2>Performance Food Group Issues Mixed Guidance </h2>
For fiscal Q1 2025, Performance Food Group issued downside revenue guidance of $15.2 billion to $15.5 billion versus the $15.54 billion consensus. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be around $400 million to $425 million. Business results for Jose Santiago are expected to be added to the quarter.
For the fiscal full year 2025, the company expects revenues of $60 billion to $61 billion versus $60.83 billion consensus estimates. Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal full year 2025 is expected to be between $1.6 billion and $1.7 billion.
Performance Food Group CEO George Holm commented on the 2 recent acquisitions, &quot;While small relative to PFG&#39;s total business, we believe Jos&eacute; Santiago will be accretive to earnings, cash flow, and margins immediately. Taken together, we believe these two deals position PFG very well for the future growth of the Southeastern United States and the Caribbean territories.&quot;

Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts' Views On 3 Defensive Stocks Delivering High-Dividend Yields

Tuesday marks the last chance for investors to receive the next dividend payout from SpartanNash (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPTN#NASDAQ">SPTN</a>). 
<h3>What's Happening</h3>
The company announced on Wednesday that it would pay shareholders a quarterly dividend of 21.75 cents per share. On Wednesday, SpartanNash will go ex-dividend, meaning the stock will trade lower to reflect that payout. In other words, the stock will likely open 21.75 cents lower than it would have opened on any other day.
In order to be eligible to receive a company's dividend, shareholders must own the stock prior to the ex-dividend date—in this case, Wednesday. Shareholders who own SPTN as of the end of Tuesday's session are eligible to receive the 21.75 cents dividend payout for every share that they own. 
According to the company, this dividend will be paid out to shareholders on March 28, 2024. Investors will then be able to either reinvest those dividends back into the stock or use the payment in some other way.
