Hershey (NYSE:HSY) Beats Q3 Sales Expectations

Hershey's Q3 2025 earnings exceeded Wall Street's expectations, with a 6.5% revenue increase and a 20% jump in earnings per share. Strong innovation, smart brand investments, and solid business performance drove growth. However, operating margin dropped due to increased input costs. Hershey's full-year earnings guidance was in line with analysts' expectations, but modest revenue growth projections suggest potential challenges ahead. Despite mixed reactions from investors, Hershey's outperformance in a challenging market is notable. To accelerate growth, Hershey may need to explore new strategies, as the brand faces limitations in its existing channels.The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered. Hosted on Acast.
