Kraft Foods Reports Strong Operating Momentum in Third Quarter
(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20080605/AQTH531LOGO)
"Kraft had a strong quarter in a difficult environment," said
"As family budgets are squeezed, our ongoing programs to add value to our products through investments in quality, marketing and innovation are paying off. Consumers are increasingly coming home to Kraft for delicious food and great value. As a result, we remain confident that we will deliver our 2008 commitments, with strong momentum going into 2009."
-- Net revenues: Third quarter net revenues increased 19.4 percent to
Excluding these factors, organic net revenue growth(1) was 7.1 percent. Pricing contributed 8.4 percentage points, unfavorable mix reduced net revenue by 0.4 percentage points and volume was down 0.9 percent, reflecting the impact of significant cost-driven pricing actions.
-- Operating income: Reported operating income in the quarter increased
17.1 percent from the prior year to
-- Tax rate: Kraft's reported tax rate in third quarter 2008 was 26.0 percent. Excluding items(1), the third quarter rate was 29.2 percent compared to 30.7 percent in third quarter 2007, reflecting the geographic mix of earnings, recent legislative changes and several discrete items.

European Union 46.9 1.8 38.0 76.5 Developing Markets 38.2 19.1 63.6 55.2
U.S. Beverages
Organic net revenues grew 7.4 percent reflecting gains from cost-driven pricing as well as volume growth across coffee, ready-to-drink beverages and powdered beverages. Growth in coffee was attributable to share gains in mainstream coffee behind the continued success of the Maxwell House restage as well as double-digit growth in Tassimo on-demand coffee that was partially offset by softness in premium coffee. Share gains from improved marketing and quality improvements in Capri Sun Roarin' Waters and 100% Juice offerings and Kool-Aid contributed to ready-to-drink beverage growth. Powdered beverage revenue grew in the quarter due to the continued success of value-oriented consumer programs behind Kool-Aid. Operating income excluding items declined 1.8 percent as the benefit of price increases and volume growth was more than offset by higher input costs and, to a lesser extent, unfavorable product mix.
U.S. Cheese
Organic net revenues grew 7.0 percent reflecting significant, cost-driven price increases that were partially offset by lower volume and unfavorable product mix. Volume gains from new products such as Kraft Bagel-fuls were more than offset by volume weakness related to cost-driven price increases as well as planned volume declines in the lower-margin natural cheese business. Operating income excluding items increased 68.9 percent in the third quarter versus a weak third quarter last year. During the quarter, pricing more than offset the impact of higher input costs, lower volume and unfavorable product mix as the benefits of past pricing actions began to catch up to the escalation of costs experienced during prior quarters.
U.S. Convenient Meals
Organic net revenues grew 8.6 percent driven by cost-driven price increases and favorable product mix. Strong results for DiGiorno and California Pizza Kitchen pizzas, including the launch of the "For One" line of individual size pizzas, as well as ongoing gains from Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh meats and Oscar Mayer Deli Creations sandwiches drove revenue growth. Operating income excluding items declined 5.8 percent as pricing actions lagged input cost increases, unfavorable mix and higher marketing and overhead expenses.
U.S. Grocery
Organic net revenues grew 5.9 percent primarily due to cost-driven pricing. Significant volume and mix gains were achieved from marketing the value proposition of Kraft macaroni and cheese and Jell-O dry packaged desserts. Lower volumes of pourable and spoonable salad dressings related to cost-driven price increases partially offset the gains. Operating income excluding items increased 5.0 percent as gains, primarily from organic revenue growth, more than offset higher input costs.
U.S. Snacks
Organic net revenues grew 4.1 percent as pricing more than offset lower
volume and unfavorable product mix. In biscuits, investments in quality and
marketing behind core brands such as Oreo, Chips Ahoy!, and Ritz, as well as
the success of new Kraft Macaroni and Cheese crackers, contributed to strong
revenue gains in the quarter. These gains were partially offset by revenue
declines in snack bars, due in part to product pruning, and to a lesser
extent, pricing-related volume weakness in snack nuts. Operating income
excluding items increased 3.6 percent driven by the benefits of price
increases, the timing of marketing expenditures and lower overhead costs.
The gains more than offset higher input costs, as well as the impact of
lower volume and unfavorable product mix. In addition, results were
negatively impacted by approximately
Organic net revenues grew 4.5 percent behind cost-driven pricing as well
as volume growth.
European Union
Organic net revenues grew 1.8 percent reflecting cost-driven pricing actions that more than offset a volume decline due partly to product pruning activity. Further investments in marketing and innovation behind the Milka brand drove solid volume growth in chocolate. Ongoing investments in the Philadelphia brand drove cheese growth in the quarter while coffee revenue declined modestly as gains in Gevalia and Tassimo were offset by planned volume losses in less profitable brands. Additionally, the LU biscuit business delivered 4.5 percent like-for-like growth in the quarter. Operating income excluding items grew 76.5 percent, including a 59.1 percentage point contribution from the acquisition of the LU biscuit business. The benefits of higher pricing, favorable product mix and lower marketing investments and overhead costs more than offset higher input costs and lower volume.
Developing Markets
Organic net revenues grew 19.1 percent driven by strong results in every
region. Successful investments in chocolate and coffee drove significant
volume and revenue growth across all key markets in the
Outlook(1)

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements regarding our 2008 guidance, in particular, expected organic revenue growth and EPS; our belief that ongoing programs to add value to our products through investments in quality, marketing and innovation are paying off; our confidence that we will deliver our 2008 commitments; our expectation for strong momentum going into 2009; with regard to our 2008 outlook, our full-year effective tax rate and our expectation for cumulative annualized savings related to our restructuring program; our 2009 organic net revenue growth and EPS; and our intent to backstop our plans and provide an update on 2009 EPS. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted in any such forward-looking statements. Such factors, include, but are not limited to, continued higher input costs, pricing actions, increased competition, increased costs of sales, our ability to realize the expected cost savings and spending from our planned restructuring program, unexpected safety or manufacturing issues, unanticipated expenses such as litigation or legal settlement expenses, our ability to successfully integrate the LU biscuit business, a shift in our product mix to lower margin offerings, risks from operating internationally, and tax law changes. For additional information on these and other factors that could affect our forward-looking statements, see our filings with the SEC, including our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K/A and subsequent reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K. We disclaim and do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement in this press release.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The company reports its financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The company is presenting various operating results, such as operating income, operating income margin, effective tax rate, net earnings and EPS on both a reported basis and on a basis excluding items that affect comparability of results. When the company uses operating results, such as operating income, operating income margin, effective tax rate, net earnings and EPS, excluding items, they are considered non-GAAP financial measures. The term "items" includes asset impairment, exit and implementation costs primarily related to a restructuring program that began in the first quarter of 2004 (the "Restructuring Program"). These restructuring charges include separation-related costs, asset write-downs, and other costs related to the implementation of the Restructuring Program. Other excluded items pertain to asset impairment charges on certain long-lived assets, gains and losses on divestitures, interest from tax reserve transfers from Altria Group, Inc., the favorable resolution of Altria Group, Inc.'s 1996-1999 IRS Tax Audit in 2006, other one-time costs related to the company's European Union segment reorganization, charges from certain legal matters, and a deferred tax reconciliation item.
Management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures and corresponding ratios provide additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. More specifically, management believes these non-GAAP financial measures reflect fundamental business performance because they exclude certain items that affect comparability of results.
The company's top-line guidance measure is organic net revenues, which excludes the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and currency. The company uses organic net revenues and corresponding growth ratios as non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes this measure better reflects revenues on a going-forward basis and provides improved comparability of results.
Management uses segment operating income and segment operating income excluding items to evaluate segment performance and allocate resources. Beginning in the second quarter of 2008, we began excluding unrealized gains and losses on hedging activity from segment operating income in order to provide better transparency of our segment operating results. Once realized, the gains and losses on hedging activities are recorded within segment operating results. Segment operating income now excludes unrealized gains and losses on hedging activity (which is a component of cost of sales), general corporate expenses and amortization of intangibles for all periods presented. Management believes it is appropriate to disclose this measure to help investors analyze segment performance and trends. Additionally, "certain commodity hedging activities" include the timing impacts of realized gains and losses on commodity hedges recorded earlier in the year.
The company measures EPS growth excluding the impacts of timing from
certain commodity hedging activities. EPS growth was negatively impacted by
