Review of Premium Brands Holdings Corporation

APR 03, 2025 - Its investment cycles have negatively impacted its earnings, but sales growth rates have been robust overall, and management is guiding for a strong FY2025. Valuation has compressed as its profit margins have slid lower and it is facing uncertain times with the threat of US tariffs. Management feels that it can navigate US tariffs well with its manufacturing plants that are positioned in the jurisdictions that it sells to. We believe that this could mark an inflection point for the company’s fundamentals, particularly as it has paused its dividend increases and plans to focus on business
acquisitions. Its price momentum over the past few years has been weak, but it offers an attractive dividend yield at these prices, and it has the potential to see multiple expansion if it can execute on its growth strategy for the coming years. We feel that management is taking the appropriate steps to turn the business in the right direction, and therefore we are maintaining our rating of ‘B’.
