What's wrong with Kraft Heinz stock? The company is hoping its turnaround strategy will spur growth in 2027 and beyond. By Catie Hogan - Oct 23, 2026 at 6:50AM EST Key points. * Kraft Heinz's stock price is down more than 35% over the past five years. * The stock's dividend yield is approaching 7% as the company continues to pay a quarterly dividend of $0.40 per share. * Motley Fool Issues First-Ever 9X Buy Alert" Investors in Kraft Heinz (KHC -1.16%) have been frustrated for a long time now. Unfortunately, this year isn't any different. In early October, the stock of this packaged food and beverage company was hovering above its 52-week low, and its price-to-sales ratio was near a 10-year low. There doesn't appear to be much optimism from Wall Street regarding Kraft's ability to grow in the future, either. So what exactly is wrong? First and foremost, Kraft's core business is shrinking. In the second quarter of 2026, net sales fell 1.4% year over year, adjusted operating income was down 18.4%, and Kraft recorded a $6.4 billion operating loss. While emerging markets sales rose, North America was down 2.7%. At the beginning of this year, the consumer staples giant appointed a new CEO, Steve Cahillane, who pivoted away from the company's plans to split into two businesses and instead chose to invest $600 million to revitalize its U.S. market. So far, the strategy doesn't have much to show for itself, but to be fair, it's still quite early in Cahillane's tenure and turnaround plan. KHC - Kraft Heinz. $24.80 -$0.29 (-1.16%) NYSE · As of 4:00 PM ET 10/23/26 KHC · 1Y +3.55% Key data points. Market cap $29.41B Day's range $24.56 - $25.23 52wk range $21.04 - $28.09 Volume 9.9M Avg volume 17.4M Gross margin 33.22% Dividend yield 6.45% Wall Street is divided on Kraft's comeback. The company's outlook has improved slightly, but business will still likely contract in the coming quarters. Kraft's dividend yield is quite high at 6.75%, and the payout is consistent at $0.40 per share quarterly. Ultimately, the low price doesn't warrant a buy from me quite yet. The company's turnaround strategy really needs to take hold over the coming year, and my unhealthy ketchup consumption alone isn't enough to do it. Is Kraft Heinz a smart long-term play?
