Post Holdings reported mixed results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026. Net sales were $1,948.0 million for the quarter, down 2%, but rose 4% year‑to‑date to $6,165.5 million. Net earnings fell 42% to $63.4 million for the quarter and 15% to $242.1 million for nine months, reflecting higher interest expense, losses related to Crystal Farms and the Pasta business, and restructuring and facility actions.
Post Consumer Brands grew from the 8th Avenue acquisition, while Foodservice and Weetabix increased year‑to‑date profit on lower egg costs and favorable mix. Refrigerated Retail sales and margins declined after the Crystal Farms sale and lower egg pricing. Operating cash flow was strong at $691.3 million. The company issued $1,300.0 million of 6.50% notes and $600.0 million of additional 6.250% notes, redeemed $1,235.0 million of 5.50% notes, fully repaid revolver borrowings, and repurchased 9.1 million shares for $917.4 million, ending with long‑term debt of $7,631.3 million and cash and cash equivalents of $265.6 million.
Post Holdings delivered higher sales and profits for the quarter and first half ended March 31, 2026, while actively reshaping its portfolio and capital structure. Quarterly net sales rose to $2,042.9 million, up 5% year over year, with growth across all four segments.
Operating profit for the quarter increased 16% to $211.9 million, and net earnings rose to $81.9 million, helped by strong Foodservice and Refrigerated Retail performance and favorable currency at Weetabix. For the first six months, net sales reached $4,217.5 million (up 7%) and net earnings were $178.7 million.
Post closed the Pasta Business sale, agreed to sell the Crystal Farms Business, and completed major acquisitions of 8th Avenue and PPI. It also issued new 6.50% and additional 6.250% senior notes, redeemed 5.50% notes, and repaid its revolving credit borrowings while repurchasing 7.0 million shares for $716.5 million. Long-term debt stood at $7,629.1 million and operating cash flow was $478.0 million for the first half.
Post Holdings reported higher sales but lower profit for the quarter ended December 31, 2025. Net sales rose to $2.17 billion from $1.97 billion, helped by the 8th Avenue and PPI acquisitions, while net earnings fell to $96.8 million from $113.3 million as interest and debt-extinguishment costs increased.
Post Consumer Brands sales grew 15% to $1.10 billion, largely from adding 8th Avenue, though pet food sales declined. Foodservice sales rose 9% and segment profit jumped 36%, aided by lower raw material costs. Refrigerated Retail sales were flat but profit improved 26%, and Weetabix delivered 8% sales growth and 36% higher profit.
Operating cash flow was $235.7 million, down from $310.4 million, while investing activities benefited from $378.5 million of proceeds from selling the Pasta Business. The company issued $1.3 billion of 6.50% senior notes due 2036, redeemed $1.235 billion of 5.50% notes, and repurchased 3.7 million shares for $382.2 million, ending with $7.51 billion of total debt and $3.47 billion of shareholders’ equity.
Post Holdings’ Q3 FY25 (quarter ended 6/30/25) showed margin expansion and double-digit earnings growth despite muted top-line momentum. Net sales inched up 1.9% to $1.98 bn, driven by a 19% jump in Foodservice (egg & potato products) that offset a 9% decline in Post Consumer Brands cereal and pet food. Gross profit rose 3.3% to $596 m, expanding gross margin 40 bp to 30.0%. SG&A fell 4%, and amortization was stable, lifting operating profit 15.5% to $235 m.
Net earnings advanced 9% to $109 m; diluted EPS increased 17% to $1.79. For the nine-month period, revenue was flat at $5.91 bn while diluted EPS improved 6% to $4.60, reflecting higher margins and lower SG&A.
Balance sheet & cash flow: Cash rose to $1.06 bn (vs. $0.79 bn at 9/24). Long-term debt climbed to $7.35 bn after issuing $1.0 bn of 6.25% 2034 notes and drawing $400 m on the revolver; leverage covenant remains compliant (secured net leverage ≤4.25×). Operating cash flow was steady at $697 m; FCF absorbed $361 m of capex and $124 m for acquisitions. Share buybacks totaled $438 m YTD, shrinking basic shares 7% YoY.
Strategic moves: Closed $129 m purchase of Potato Products of Idaho (integrated into Refrigerated Retail & Foodservice). Subsequent to quarter-end (7/1/25) Post bought the remaining 39.5% of 8th Avenue plus preferred stock for $799 m and assumed $111 m of lease liabilities, bringing the business fully on-balance-sheet. Three cereal plant closures (Lancaster, Sparks, Cobourg) are progressing; cumulative restructuring charge $16 m with $5 m more expected.
Outlook implications: Margin gains, mix shift toward Foodservice, and accretive acquisitions support earnings, but higher leverage and flat nine-month sales warrant monitoring.
