Does Campbell's (The) have pricing power in its industry?

Pricing power is moderate. Across FY25, net price realization flattened as prior increases rolled off, and volumes were mixed. In Q1 FY26, organic sales declined 1% with modest favorable price realization but weaker volume mix.

Management also disclosed tariff headwinds near 4% of cost of products sold in FY26, which will require mitigation via productivity and selected pricing. Premium Rao’s has brand permission for price, yet consumer discourse shows sensitivity and credible low-priced substitutes, which caps latent pricing upside.

We therefore see mid-cycle pricing power as adequate but not exceptional outside a few flagship SKUs. Citations: Q1 FY26 press release, FY25 Q2 and Q3 press materials, and social sentiment regarding premium sauce trade-downs or dupes.
