Over the five-year period, Campbell’s revenue has remained relatively stable with minor fluctuations. Revenue dipped slightly in 2021 at 8,476 million USD from 8,691 million USD in 2020, before recovering to 9,636 million USD in 2024—a modest growth trend overall. Gross profit, however, shows a pronounced swing: after a very low figure of 747 million USD in 2020, it soared to 2,811 million USD in 2021 before decreasing by about 6.6% to 2,627 million USD in 2022, then gradually recovering to 2,971 million USD in 2024. These wide swings, especially the jump from 747 to 2,811 million USD (a change of over 275%), could be reflective of non-recurring adjustments or changes in accounting classifications rather than pure operational performance. Operating income and net income trends further underscore the volatility in Campbell’s financial performance. Operating income increased from 1,107 million USD in 2020 to 1,545 million USD in 2021, but then dropped sharply by nearly 25% to 1,163 million USD in 2022. Although there was a partial bounce in 2023, operating income fell by over 20% in 2024 to 1,000 million USD. Net income followed a downward trend from 1,628 million USD in 2020 to 1,002 million USD in 2021 and further declined, hitting 567 million USD by 2024—a decline exceeding 30% from 2023’s 858 million USD. In the competitive packaged foods industry where cost pressures and shifting consumer preferences are common, these declines in profitability margins suggest that while revenue remains resilient, Campbell’s may be facing operational challenges that affect its bottom line sustainability.
