ConAgra Foods (CAG-N) is currently trading at a price-to-earnings ratio of 8.5x for 2027, which some experts view as attractive considering its well-managed operations and strong product line. Despite this, there are concerns about the high 7.7% dividend yield that may signal underlying issues, with some analysts urging caution due to potential down earnings as the company approaches its next report. A single strong performance in the upcoming quarter could turn around the stock's negative trajectory, although one expert highlights a lack of growth, exacerbating skepticism around the sustainability of high dividends. Overall, while ConAgra has solid brands that generate revenue, the overall lack of growth and expectations of disappointing earnings cast a shadow over its prospects.

He bets their frozen food sales are strong because of stay-at-homers, but it yields only 2.4% and is cheaper than peer Pepsico. He's on the sidelines because it lacks longer-term consistency. They report Thursday.
Arguably one of the leaders in the tier 2 brands. Made a huge acquisition in 2012, which hasn’t worked out well. Have had several write-downs since then because of that, and have had to reduce prices to increase sales. As a result, margins have been hammered. Over the last year or so, the stock has done quite well because a private equity firm stepped in. The company has indicated 10% year-over-year EPS growth over the next 3 years. Not a bad time to start some buying, but be careful in the short term. The stock had a considerable run up, and on a valuation basis it is not cheap. As a buyer, take a half position and wait for a pullback.
Just made a major acquisition. His issues with this and others in this area are that there is inflation pressure on the cost side. They are not getting a follow through on the pricing side so their margins are being squeezed and he fears for flattish earnings growth. 2.9% dividend yield.
