Briefing
Reported strong sales growth driven by pricing actions, but impacted by a significant non-cash LIFO charge.
Seneca Foods reported a net sales increase for the first quarter of fiscal 2023, driven by higher selling prices and increased sales volume. However, the gross margin decreased due to a substantial LIFO charge resulting from historic inflation.
- Net sales increased to $265.2 million compared to $235.0 million in the prior year.
- Higher selling prices and improved sales mix contributed $21.2 million to the net sales increase.
- Increased sales volume accounted for $9.0 million of the net sales increase.
- Gross margin decreased to 8.6% compared to 14.3% in the prior year, mainly due to a $16.4 million increase in the LIFO charge.
