FLOWERS FOODS, INC. REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2026 RESULTS
Flowers Foods reported Q1 2026 net sales of $1.57 billion, up 1.1% year-over-year, driven by pricing/mix and the Simple Mills acquisition which offset volume declines of 3.3%. Diluted EPS fell to $0.20 from $0.25 in the prior year, while adjusted EPS declined to $0.29 from $0.35. Net income dropped 20.6% to $42.1 million due to higher interest expense and a challenging consumer environment.
