Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls Say
Financial PerformanceCalavo is a show-me stock entering the fiscal year, and if it executes throughout the year, significant gains can follow from depressed levels.
Market DemandThe outlook is positive as pricing for larger retail-destined fruit has continued to rise, while Mexican producers have oversupplied smaller fruits.
Operational EfficiencyIf Calavo can maintain over 10% gross margins in fresh avocados, return the Prepared segment to growth with over 20% gross margins, and operate a lean operating expense model, an earnings step change can take place.
Bears Say
EarningsQ4’24 results disappointed, as market tailwinds only provided some lift, while a series of modest internal factors collectively drove margins and EBITDA down despite the strong macro backdrop.
Financial PerformanceMultiple individual dynamics converged, including a $5M YoY tomato revenue decline, higher year-end compensation expenses, continued elevated legal costs associated with the FCPA investigation, and Prepared segment volume/margin pressure via rising input costs.
Market SentimentThe market is clearly skeptical and will not give Calavo the benefit of the doubt until it is proven.
