Calavo Growers

CVGW

Market cap $370M

Calavo Growers has transformed into a specialized avocado platform, focusing on operational discipline, margin expansion, and a fortified balance sheet. CVGW's restructuring, debt repayment, and cost reductions have driven profitability, with forward P/E in the low teens and a stable dividend yield near 3.7%. Potential catalysts include operational growth, expansion in prepared products, capital allocation flexibility, and ongoing strategic review, including a possible buyout.

Calavo Growers (CVGW) is deeply undervalued, trading at just 12x earnings with a strong balance sheet and nearly 4% dividend yield. CVGW remains attractive due to ongoing strategic alternatives review, including a potential buyout, despite recent share price weakness and market skepticism. Recent tariff rollbacks on avocados and tomatoes, plus a $25 million share buyback, enhance the company's near-term outlook and financial flexibility.
