Deep Analysis

Revenue Growth (YoY) of 2.5% means the company’s sales increased by that percentage compared to the same quarter one year earlier.

Against its sector peers, this result places HRL well below the sector median of 8.0%, landing at the 19th percentile — meaning 81% of peers grew faster. Trend data is unavailable: the year-over-year change is listed as N/A, the quarter-over-quarter change is N/A, and only one historical value (2.5%) is provided for the last eight quarters. With a low growth level and no trend to assess, the metric signals a persistent lack of momentum relative to the industry. This weak competitive standing increases risk, as HRL may struggle to capture market share or justify its valuation. The 2.5% growth rate directly contradicts the overall CAUTIOUS verdict — it reinforces caution by showing the company’s revenue expansion is well behind its sector.
