Key developments for Sara Lee Corp. (SLE)
Sara Lee Corp. reported unaudited consolidated earnings results for first quarter ended September 26, 2009. For the quarter, the company reported net income of $284 million or $0.41 per diluted share on net sales of $2,588 million compared to net income of $230 million or $0.32 per diluted share on net sales of $2,794 million for the same period a year ago. Income from continuing operations before income taxes was $296 compared to income from continuing operations before income of $268 million for the same period a year ago. Net sales fell as a result of unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates, volume declines and strategic business exits. Cash from operations was driven by higher operating income, favorable working capital and lower pension contributions. Net cash from operating activities was $187 million compared to net cash used in operating activities of $38 million for the same period a year ago. Purchase of property and equipment was $59 million compared to purchase of property and equipment of $57 million for the same period a year ago. The company currently expects full-year fiscal 2010 diluted EPS to be in the range of $1.12 to $1.18 per share, which includes $0.19 per share of contingent sale proceeds received in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 from the sale of its tobacco business in fiscal 1999, and a $0.03 per share net gain from significant items realized in the first quarter of fiscal 2010. Full-year 2010 diluted EPS, excluding contingent sale proceeds and significant items, is expected to be in the range of $0.90-$0.96 per share, compared to $0.82 in fiscal 2009. EPS guidance includes anticipated benefits from a 53rd week and favorable currency exchange rates in addition to underlying business improvements. These factors are partially offset by substantive investments in the business and a comparison against one-time benefits in general corporate expenses in the prior year. Guidance does not include any additional significant items that may occur during the remainder of fiscal 2010, such as one-time expenses related to Project Accelerate.
Sara Lee Corp. expected to Report Q2 2010 Results on February 4, 2010. This event was calculated by Capital IQ (Created on November 5, 2009).
