General Mills' 7.2% dividend yield looks safe for now, but earnings are falling

General Mills has kept its dividend while food rivals Conagra and Campbell's cut theirs this year, but its payout looks stretched. Inflation and the rise of appetite-curbing GLP-1 drugs have hurt the sector. For the quarter ended August 30, net sales fell 3%, due to the sale of its US yogurt business; organic sales were flat. Per-share profit was $0.75, down from $0.86 a year earlier. The $0.61 quarterly dividend gives a payout ratio of about 81%. Free cash flow over 12 months was $1.6 billion, against $1.3 billion paid in dividends. The yield is 7.2%, among the highest in the S&P 500. The dividend looks safe for now, but the buffer is thin. The stock is down 45% over five years.

Clorox vs. Campbell's: why the 6.1% yield beats the 5.3% after a 36% dividend cut

Campbell's cut its quarterly dividend 36% to $0.25 a share on September 3, 2026, to pay down debt faster. That leaves it yielding 5.3%, against 6.1% for Clorox. Clorox raised its quarterly dividend to $1.25 from $1.24 on July 31. Yet it paid out 149% of its free cash flow in dividends in fiscal 2026, against 69% for Campbell's. Analysts expect those ratios to fall to 71% and 40% in fiscal 2027. Clorox's figure depends on its free cash flow more than doubling to $881 million. Clorox expects fiscal 2027 sales to rise 13% to 14%, helped by its GOJO acquisition. Campbell's expects sales to fall 2% to 4%.

Campbell's backs Per Scholas manufacturing training in Milwaukee with $500K

Per Scholas, a nonprofit that provides no-cost training for high-growth careers, has partnered with The Campbell's Company to launch its first Advanced Manufacturing Technician program in Greater Milwaukee. Campbell's is investing $500,000, including $250,000 to fund the first cohort. The 15-week program will train 25 learners for entry-level manufacturing and industrial technology jobs. The 400+ hour curriculum covers industrial electricity, fluid power, motor-driven systems, and precision maintenance, along with OSHA-10 and NFPA 70E safety credentials. Per Scholas built the curriculum after a year of planning, site visits, and a benchmarking study of more than 200 technicians. It plans to use the programme as a blueprint for other communities. According to a Deloitte report, US manufacturing will need 1.9 million more workers by 2033.

Campbell's raises $300M in subordinated notes as sales slump and dividend is cut 36%

The Campbell's Company has completed a $300 million offering of fixed-to-floating rate subordinated, unsecured notes due April 5, 2057. The notes are callable and carry a variable coupon. The sale comes as investors weigh falling unit sales and pressure on earnings. Weak volumes in Snacks and Meals & Beverages remain the biggest risk to revenue and profit. Campbell's also cut its quarterly dividend by 36% to $0.25 per share. Together with the new debt, the move suggests the company is putting cash preservation and balance sheet strength ahead of near-term shareholder returns.

Campbell's slashes dividend 36% as EPS collapses to $2.17 while Smucker raises payout to $1.12

Campbell's slashed its dividend 36% to $0.25 per share after fiscal 2026 adjusted earnings per share collapsed to $2.17, down from $2.91. The cut followed a 37% drop in operating income to $852 million and a 6% decline in organic snacks sales. J.M. Smucker, by contrast, raised its quarterly dividend to $1.12 and guided full-year adjusted EPS to $10.50 to $11.00. First-quarter adjusted EPS hit $3.24, beating estimates, with revenue up 5% to $2.22 billion. However, Smucker faces similar pressures. Sweet Baked Snacks fell 7% and a $961.7 million Hostess impairment wiped out GAAP earnings. Despite this, operating cash flow swung to $425.7 million from negative territory. Analysts rate Smucker with eight strong buys and a $141 target, whilst Campbell's carries four strong sells and a $21 target. Year-to-date, Smucker is up 27% whilst Campbell's is down 27%.
