I’ve spent several hours this weekend doing a deeper dive into the food producers sector.
While I opened a small position in CAG a few weeks ago, I thought it would be prudent to study the sector more.
I ran debt to income ratios and forward PE ratios to determine my order.
While some are more growth driven, I’m looking for more conservative, value & stable dividends.
PPC supplies chicken to Chick-fil-A
No dividend, but has solid growth potential.
They do special payouts.
$8.40 in 2025.
Debt Coverage: The company's debt is well-supported, with an interest coverage ratio of 16.4x, meaning its earnings are more than 16 times greater than its interest payments
CPB forward PE is around 9 and dividend 7.43%
INGR- low DTI - 80% of food products contain their ingredients
GIS - forward PE 10-13 and Divy at 6.87% and has paid a dividend for 127 years.
HRL- forward PE 14 and Divy at 5.5%
Do some research and see what might fit your portfolio. 👍
