We see the merits of its technology modernization effort (buoying future sales growth), as it is replacing a system that has been in place since the early 2000s when the firm was half the size it is now.
If consumers' penchant for at-home food consumption (jump-started by the pandemic) persists (as a means to stretch budgets), McCormick's sales could surpass our expectations.
Even with lingering supply chain disruptions, McCormick's service levels are improving relative to the start of the pandemic as its manufacturing operations are catching up, aiding its retail relationships.
