Rhea-AI Summary

The company experienced significant drops in profitability, with net earnings falling 64% to $4.8 million and earnings per diluted share decreasing to $0.25 from $0.69 year-over-year. The performance was impacted by theater channel weakness affecting Frozen Beverage volumes, the conclusion of limited-time-offer churro volumes, and continued cost inflation, particularly in chocolate prices.

The company demonstrated confidence by repurchasing approximately 39,000 shares for $5.0 million during the quarter.

Insights

Financial Analyst

J&J Snack Foods reported concerning Q2 results with dramatic profit declines across all segments despite modest sales decreases, indicating severe operational deleveraging.

The second quarter results for J&J Snack Foods reveal significant profitability challenges despite only modest revenue declines. Net sales decreased by $356.1 million, a 1% year-over-year decline, but bottom-line metrics deteriorated substantially: operating income fell 66% to $6.0 million, net earnings declined 64% to $4.8 million, and earnings per diluted share dropped from $0.69 to $0.25.

The company's gross margin compressed significantly from 30.1% to 26.9%. Management specifically attributed approximately 60 basis points of this compression to foreign exchange headwinds in the Frozen Beverage segment, while the loss of churro and pretzel volumes contributed approximately 190 basis points.

The operating income declines across all segments are particularly concerning:

• Food Service (63% of total sales): operating income fell 84.3% to $1.2 million on a 1.7% sales decline
• Retail Supermarket (15% of sales): operating income decreased 45.8% to $2.8 million despite 1.8% sales growth
• Frozen Beverages (21% of sales): operating income dropped 58.7% to $2.0 million on a 0.9% sales decline

Management is projecting improved performance in the second half of fiscal 2025, based on anticipated theater traffic recovery (estimated 30% or more increase in box office sales), implementation of selective price increases in Q3, and volume growth initiatives. The company continues to return capital to shareholders, repurchasing approximately 39,000 shares for $5.0 million during the quarter.

Consumer Goods Industry Expert

Theater channel weakness severely impacted results, with management banking on summer blockbusters and selective price increases to drive second-half recovery.

J&J Snack Foods' second quarter performance reveals how dependent certain segments are on movie theater traffic. The estimated 10% decline in North American box office sales directly translated to weakness in both the Frozen Beverage segment (beverages down 7.1%) and Food Service segment (pretzels down 7.9%).

Product performance varied significantly across categories:

• Churros declined 18.7%, primarily due to tough comparisons against limited-time offers in the prior year
• Pretzels fell 7.9% due to theater weakness and general category softness
• Handheld products increased 14.7% in Food Service
• Frozen novelties grew 14.7% in Retail
• Retail handheld sales declined 28.4% due to capacity constraints from a facility fire last year

The company's ability to implement price increases appears constrained, with management noting they had to balance price and volume considerations. This slowed the pace of increases despite continued cost inflation, particularly in chocolate for their bakery business.

Innovation remains a focus, with new product launches and additional distribution contributing $6.5 million in Food Service (primarily churro products) and $2.9 million in Retail (including Dippin' Dots Sundaes and pretzel dogs).

Management's recovery forecast hinges heavily on the summer movie season, with early positive signs from the Minecraft movie release in April already visible in U.S. Frozen Beverage volumes. The projected 30% or greater rebound in box office sales during the fiscal third quarter will be critical to achieving the company's expected second-half improvement.

MOUNT LAUREL, N.J., May 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- J & J Snack Foods Corp. (NASDAQ: JJSF) (the “Company”) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended March 29, 2025.

Dan Fachner, J&J Snack Foods Chairman, President, and CEO stated, “J & J Snack Foods total net sales for our fiscal second quarter declined 1.0% to $356.1 million as compared to the prior year quarter, which primarily was driven by lower sales in our Frozen Beverage and Food Service segments, partly offset by growth in our Retail business.  

“Our second quarter performance was primarily impacted by three factors. First, theater channel weakness impacted volumes in our Frozen Beverage business and, to a lesser extent, our Food Service business. The Frozen Beverage segment also was impacted by foreign exchange headwinds. Second, Food Service sales declined primarily due to the conclusion of limited-time-offer churro volumes from a year ago. Third, we experienced continued cost inflation, which was mostly chocolate in our bakery business.

“Despite the challenges in the quarter, we expect earnings to improve in the second half, driven by a rebound in theater traffic, as well as actions we are taking to implement additional price increases and to grow volume. North American box office sales, which are estimated to have declined by about 10% in our fiscal second quarter, are projected to rebound over the previous year by 30% or more during our fiscal third quarter. We have been pleased with the success of the Minecraft movie in April, which is evident in our U.S. Frozen Beverage volumes. Although we achieved price increases in the second quarter, the pace was slower than anticipated as we balanced price and volume considerations. We are implementing selective price increases in the third quarter.

“Underscoring our confidence in the long-term value of the business and our commitment to enhance shareholder value, we repurchased about thirty-nine thousand shares for approximately $5.0 million. We look forward to delivering a strong second half of fiscal 2025 and continuing to drive durable value creation for our shareholders.”

Second Quarter Highlights

Net sales declined 1.0% from the prior year quarter to $356.1 million due primarily to lower Frozen Beverage and Food Service sales.

Key highlights include:

• Food Service segment sales decreased 1.7%
• Retail Supermarket segment sales increased 1.8%
• Frozen Beverage segment sales decreased 0.9%
  

Gross profit decreased from $108.2 million in the prior year quarter to $95.7 million, while gross margin declined from 30.1% to 26.9%. The softness in our Frozen Beverage segment was primarily caused by lower volumes and foreign exchange headwinds, which contributed to approximately 60 basis points of gross margin compression. The loss of churro and pretzel volumes in Food Service together contributed to approximately 190 basis points of gross margin compression.

Total operating expenses of $89.7 million represented 25.2% of sales for the quarter, compared to 25.1% in Q2 ’24.

• Marketing and selling expenses were $28.5 million or 8.0% of sales, up from 7.7% last year, and increased 3.1% versus the prior year quarter. Just over half of the increase was related to higher brand amortization expenses associated with a legacy churro brand that is being phased out for the Hola churro brand.
• Distribution costs were $41.8 million or 11.7% of sales, down from 12.3% in the prior year. Costs declined by 5.5%, which primarily reflects the impact of start-up costs at our regional distribution centers last year.
• Administrative expenses were $19.8 million or 5.5% of sales in the current quarter, versus 5.1% in the prior year period. Costs increased by 6.7%, reflecting higher compensation costs as well as higher non-recurring legal expenses. 
  

Operating income was $6.0 million in the second quarter, compared to $17.9 million in the prior year period. Net earnings were $4.8 million, compared to $13.3 million in the prior year period. The effective tax rate was 27.2%, compared to 26.6% in the prior year.

Food Service Segment Second Quarter Highlights

• Food Service sales decreased 1.7% to $226.1 million  
• Churro sales declined 18.7% due to the loss of strong limited time offer volumes in the prior year.   Pretzel sales declined 7.9% due to weakness in theaters as well as general category softness.   Handheld sales increased 14.7%.
• Sales of new products and added placement with new customers were approximately $6.5 million in the quarter, driven primarily by the addition of churro related products and new distribution of cookies.
• Operating income decreased 84.3% to $1.2 million driven primarily by volume declines.

Retail Supermarket Segment Second Quarter Highlights

• Retail sales increased 1.8% to $53.8 million
• Frozen novelties sales increased 14.7% on continued volume growth and mix improvements. Handheld sales declined 28.4% due to capacity constraints caused by a fire at a facility last year.
• Sales of new products and added placement with new customers were approximately $2.9 million in the quarter driven by the recent launch of our Dippin’ Dots Sundaes as well as additional distribution of pretzel dogs.
• Operating income decreased 45.8% to $2.8 million.

Frozen Beverages Segment Second Quarter Highlights  

• Frozen beverage segment sales decreased 0.9% to $76.2 million
• Beverage sales declined 7.1% attributed to weakness in the theater channel caused by underperforming movie releases.
• Machine Service revenues increased 4.2% on higher call volumes, while equipment sales increased 17.0%, primarily attributed to growth for convenience customers.
• Operating income decreased 58.7% to $2.0 million driven primarily by weak frozen beverage volumes and foreign exchange related headwinds.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA consists of net earnings adjusted to exclude: income taxes (benefit); investment income; interest expense; depreciation and amortization; share-based compensation expense; net (gain) loss on sale or disposal of assets; impairment charges, restructuring costs, merger and acquisition costs, acquisition related inventory adjustments, strategic business transformation costs, integration costs, and non-recurring legal expenses.

Adjusted Operating Income consists of operating income adjusted to exclude: impairment charges, restructuring costs, merger and acquisition costs, acquisition related amortization expenses and inventory adjustments, strategic business transformation costs, integration costs and non-recurring legal expenses.

Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share consists of net earnings adjusted to exclude: impairment charges, restructuring costs, merger and acquisition costs, acquisition related amortization expenses and inventory adjustment, strategic business transformation costs, integration costs, and non-recurring legal expenses. For purposes of comparability, the income tax effect of pre-tax adjustments is determined using statutory tax rates.

This press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures; Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Operating Income, and Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share. A "non-GAAP financial measure" is a numerical measure of a company's financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in the statements of income, balance sheets, or statements of cash flow of the company. Pursuant to applicable reporting requirements, the company has provided reconciliations below of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

The non-GAAP financial measures presented within the Company's earnings release are not indicators of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to the applicable GAAP measure. These non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. In addition, in evaluating these non-GAAP measures, you should be aware that in the future we may incur income, expenses, gains and losses, similar to the adjustments in this press release. Our presentation of these non-GAAP measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or infrequent items. We compensate for these limitations by providing equal prominence to our GAAP results and using non-GAAP measures only as supplemental presentations.

The non-GAAP measures presented are utilized by management to evaluate the Company's business performance and profitability by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our recurring core business operating results. The Company believes that these measures provide additional clarity for investors by excluding specific income, expenses, gains, and losses, in an effort to show comparable business operating results for the periods presented. Similarly, Management believes these adjusted measures are useful performance measures because certain items included in the calculations may either mask or exaggerate trends in the Company’s ongoing operating performance.
