Hershey Earnings: Sales Soar as Price Hikes Fail to Deter Consumers’ Hunger for Snacks; Shares Rich
Wide-moat Hershey’s mix of leading confectionery and salty snack fare continues to win with consumers, as evidenced by its 12% increase in first-quarter organic sales (a 9% benefit from price and around 3% volume growth). This mark is even more impressive when juxtaposed with the 11.5% gains posted a year ago.
