Opinion:
Simply Good Foods Company is currently moving higher after reporting earnings this morning. The company produced a solid earnings report with both EPS and Revenue beating expectations. They both increased by solid growth rates compared to a year ago. Simply Good Foods also saw Net Income of 18.5M and an increase of 27.1% in adjusted EBITDA. They also commented on outlook for the rest of the year which shows an increase in net sales of about 13-15%. This company is definitely headed in the right direction and is starting to pick up companies such as Quest and Atkins. They have also showed tremendous growth as a company over the life of the company. The stock has seen nothing but growth over its 5 years on the stock market. Personally, I really like the attributes of this company. They have reported some solid earnings and the financials look square. However, I would like to see them keep a little more cash now that the business is starting to develop, and they need to start hammering some of that debt they still owe. For a young company, they are not in a bad place at all, but I am going to stick to roots and invest in companies that have been around forever and are staples such as Hormel and others. If you like volatility and want to have potential to return some big gains, then you might want to pull the trigger on this stock. I just see a more safer play with Hormel and other stocks, and plus they pay a dividend, where Simply Good Foods isn't quite to that point yet.
