LW's second-quarter results are likely to show softer revenues and pricing pressure, partly offset by steady volume growth and benefits from restructuring efforts.
Lamb Weston Holdings, Inc. faces margin pressure from rising input costs and competitive pricing, prompting a Hold rating despite reasonable valuation. LW's international segment growth was acquisition-driven; organic sales declined 9% due to weak demand and strategic exits from low-margin businesses. North America revenue is flat as price cuts to defend market share offset only modest volume gains, reflecting a challenging environment.
Lamb Weston (LW) has an impressive earnings surprise history and currently possesses the right combination of the two key ingredients for a likely beat in its next quarterly report.
