WK Kellogg: Hard-Pressed To Start My Investment Day With This Cereal Company
WK Kellogg's post-spin-off performance remains challenged, with persistent volume declines and only modest margin improvement despite ambitious turnaround plans. Shares have rallied over 30% since late 2023, but this re-rating appears disconnected from underlying fundamentals, as sales and cash flow trends remain negative. Leverage has increased due to weak cash generation and continued high dividends, raising financial risk amid ongoing operational softness.
