FPA Queens Road Small Cap Value Fund made the following comment about United Natural Foods, Inc. (NYSE:UNFI) in its Q3 2023 investor letter:
“United Natural Foods, Inc. (NYSE:UNFI) distributes natural and organic food. Whole Foods is a 20% customer, but UNFI has done a reasonable job diversifying its product and customer base, with a big boost from its acquisition of SuperValu in 2018. The company’s share price has declined with three successive earnings misses and guidance revisions this year. 18 UNFI is suffering from a combination of volatile food prices, consumers trading down from high-priced organic food items, and pricing and execution mistakes by the company. Distribution is usually a resilient business model and, on a normalized basis, UNFI looks cheap. But the company is now in full-bore turnaround mode, and we have been judicious about adding to our position.”
