Shares of Flowers Foods Inc. (NYSE: FLO) are soaring in pre-market trading on Wednesday, up over 5% after the packaged bakery foods company reported better-than-expected earnings for the third quarter of fiscal 2024.
Flowers Foods posted adjusted earnings per share of $0.33 for Q3, beating the consensus estimate of $0.29. Net sales declined slightly to $1.19 billion, just shy of the $1.20 billion analysts were expecting.
