Flowers Foods 2Q EPS 28c

Flowers Foods (NYSE: FLO), a leading packaged bakery food company, is set to release its Q2 2025 earnings results on Friday, August 15th, before market open. Analysts are expecting the company to report earnings per share (EPS) of $0.29, a 19.4% year-over-year (YoY) decline, and revenue of $1.27 billion, a 3.3% YoY increase [1].

Over the past two years, Flowers Foods has beaten EPS estimates 63% of the time and revenue estimates 38% of the time. However, in the last three months, EPS estimates have seen six downward revisions, while revenue estimates have seen seven downward revisions, indicating a growing pessimism among analysts [1].

Last quarter, Flowers Foods missed analysts' revenue expectations by 2.7%, reporting revenues of $1.55 billion, down 1.4% year on year. The company also missed EBITDA and EPS estimates. This quarter, analysts expect revenue to grow 3.5% YoY to $1.27 billion, with adjusted earnings at $0.29 per share [2].

Flowers Foods' peers in the perishable food segment have shown positive results. Vital Farms delivered year-on-year revenue growth of 25.4%, beating estimates by 8%, and Fresh Del Monte Produce reported revenues up 3.8%, topping estimates by 2.2%. Both companies saw share price increases following their Q2 results [2].

Investors should pay close attention to Flowers Foods' Q2 earnings as the company has a history of beating estimates, but recent downward revisions suggest analysts are cautious. The company's peers' strong performance may influence investors' expectations for Flowers Foods' results.
