Behind the estimate.
The model projects about $1.65bn of revenue and $265m of adjusted EBITDA, down 12.3% from a year earlier as higher potato, oil and freight costs move through inventory. North American volume growth partly offsets softer pricing and international demand.
Assumptions of $47m interest expense, a 28% adjusted tax rate and 137.7m diluted shares produce normalized EPS of $0.61.
The model assumes quarterly depreciation and amortization of $101.5m. The annual guidance does not specify its basis. A plausible $100.4m-$104.7m range gives EPS of roughly $0.59-$0.62, so the estimated edge over the Street is sensitive to this assumption.
The workbook was forecast and independently reviewed with Opus 5.5 High. The estimate remains a forecast, including the assumptions described here.
