POST is repositioning its pet food brands with pricing changes and the Nutrish relaunch to improve volumes and category performance.
ST. LOUIS, July 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Post Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:POST), a consumer packaged goods holding company, today announced it will hold a conference call on Friday, August 7, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. ET to discuss financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 and fiscal year 2026 outlook and to respond to questions.
Post Holdings remains a Strong Buy, driven by robust free cash flow, aggressive buybacks, and a resilient portfolio despite macro headwinds. POST's H1 '26 free cash flow rose to $270.3 million, with a projected FY26 FCF that could reach ~$698 million, for a P/FCF ratio near 5.6x. Management is prioritizing high-yield buybacks over debt repayment, recently authorizing an additional $600 million program after retiring ~15% of shares in H1.
POST is balancing selective pricing, cost savings and private-label strength to manage inflation and support profitability.
