Question-and-Answer Session

Operator

Thank you. Our first question is coming from the line of Andrew Lazar with Barclays. Please proceed with your questions.

Andrew Lazar

Great. Thanks so much. Good morning everybody.

Michele Buck

Good morning, Andrew.

Steve Voskuil

Good morning.

Andrew Lazar

Good morning. Maybe first off you discussed in the prepared marks, say you expect a strong top and bottom line performance in 2023. I guess given where the markets are it seems like items like pension and interest expense will be sort of incremental headwinds obviously for the group as a whole next year. I was wondering if you would be able to help level set us a little bit on sort of where some of these items, at least that you do have visibility to might sit for next year. And I guess if they are material enough to kind of derail the earnings performance in the year.

Michele Buck

Sure. Andrew, let me start with a little bit of an overview and then I will let Steve dive into a few more of the specifics. So, overall, we believe we can deliver an on algorithm year next year. We believe our sales will be slightly ahead of algorithm. Pricing will be about comparable to 2021. We anticipate that our gross margins will be stable. We will have a step up in investment as we reinvest, reinstate some of the DME spend. Now that we have more capacity available to really be able to be able to take advantage of that and also to invest in capabilities to secure profitable, sustainable future. And we think all of that will net down to strong earnings performance that will likely be at the high end of our algorithm. So that’s a little bit of an overview, but Steve, I’ll let you kind of go a little bit deeper.

Steve Voskuil

Yes. Just on the discrete items, kind of to answer your question at a summary first, we don’t see any derailers in terms of those discrete areas, we will have more pension expense. Our estimate today would probably be $5 million more year-over-year for next year.

On the pension side this year we’ve picked up about $10 million of incremental pension expense. Next year I would, again, markets can change, but today I would probably estimate that is probably twice that number for next year. But neither of those are material enough to shift the needle.

Michele Buck

Yes. Sorry, just to clarify that first $5 million moves to interest for the year.

Steve Voskuil

Yes, sorry.

Michele Buck

And then the pension probably about a $20 million.

Steve Voskuil

Yes.

Andrew Lazar

That’s really helpful.

Steve Voskuil

Yes.

Andrew Lazar

Very helpful. And then just lastly, I mean, as you mentioned, you’ve got incremental pricing on top for 2023. And I appreciate you’re planning for greater elasticity than you’ve seen thus far, which is prudent, but obviously you delivered strong volume this year in the face of high single digit pricing. You’ve got more capacity coming online. I think ANC is expected to grow faster than sales next year. Dot’s entering, I think, the organic calculation to start the year and obviously strong underlying momentum. So I guess at a minimum, shouldn’t these help at least mitigate the potential for building elasticities in 2023? I’m just trying to make sure I’m not missing anything else on either side of the ledger. Thanks so much.

Steve Voskuil

Yes, I mean, I think, that’s the right way to think about it. As Michele said at the top, I think, we’ve got a lot of positives in the story for next year as some of the things you mentioned rolled through. And I’m sure we’ll have challenges, but we don’t see anything yet that is a derailing sort of a factor.

Andrew Lazar

Thank you very much.

Michele Buck

Thanks.

Operator

Thank you. Our next question comes from the line of Bryan Spillane with Bank of America. Please proceed with your questions.

Bryan Spillane

Hey, thanks operator. Good morning everyone. Hey Michele, in the prepared remarks you referenced consumer behavior and maybe seeing some changes in where people shop, I guess, channels and pack types. Could you just elaborate a little bit more on that and maybe how Hershey is adjusting to that?

Michele Buck

Yes, absolutely. So we are seeing some of those changes in how they are spending. Fortunately, we are seeing them continue to spend, but there is some reprioritization. So specifically value channels and value packs are selling well. We are also seeing some improvements in private label performance and really we’re seeing this across the board slightly more noticeable with lower income consumers, but really across all different income levels.

Within our categories the trends have really remained very strong as the consumer continues to prioritize snacking and particularly sweet treats. And obviously we have minimal private label presence. So we continue to see that our products remain an affordable treat for families and for consumers. And we know that part of that is they want to reward themselves when times are tough. They also use these products to relieve stress. And we think that those trends will continue.

I think on a class to trade basis just to augment relative to the channel piece we have seen particular strength in mass, in club, and in dollar. So certainly in channels that represent strong value.

Bryan Spillane

Okay, thank you.

Michele Buck

Sure.

Steve Voskuil

Thank you.

Operator

Our next question is in the line of Michael Lavery with Piper Sandler. Please proceed with your question.

Michael Lavery

Thank you. Good morning.

Steve Voskuil

Good morning.

Michele Buck

Good morning.

Michael Lavery

You’ve got strong momentum on Reese’s obviously up, I think, it was 16% in the quarter and certainly adding capacity is paying off even Payday which we don’t hear too much about typically, is up very strongly behind some new capacity. Can you just maybe give us a little bit more specifics looking ahead in terms of how some of the capacity unfolds? I think you’ve given maybe like a five-year outlook, but in terms of say next year, would it be – is it about a fifth comes over the next five years? Do we have to wait longer? Is there a bigger bump near term? Just help us maybe think about some of the pacing because the capacity certainly is working when you can add it.

Michele Buck

So, we certainly have, I would say, a continuous effort against broadening our capacity, certainly focused only on where we see those really strong returns. Next year, for example, we are planning for five new manufacturing lines to start up throughout the year and that includes three new Reese’s lines. So we do expect a pretty nice increase in capacity. However, some of the investment that we have in 2023 will also be for production that doesn’t come online until 2024. So, not all of the incremental spend directly relates to 2023, but we do have continuous capacity coming online into the future years with a big focus on 2023 and 2024. Is that helpful?

Michael Lavery

That’s helpful, yes. It’s a little bit more near term skewed it sounds like. And just on Dot’s, if I could follow up there, very strong momentum, it looks like it came in about 40% ahead of what we had thought the run rate was when you bought that business. Can you just point to what some of the drivers are and how to think about the sustainability of that kind of momentum?

Michele Buck

Yes, absolutely. So on Dot’s, a big piece of our gains has been continuing to grow distribution. As we purchased the business, there was significant opportunity, particularly on the east coast and with certain customers we were somewhat underdeveloped with Walmart. So Walmart was a big gainer on distribution. Obviously that’s a huge customer. At the same time, we’re also focused on optimizing the consumer model and all of the spend to maximize impact and starting to drive incremental investment and brand building which is our model across our entire portfolio, which we think will give us further upside beyond the distribution going forward.

The other thing I want to just clarify on the capacity piece is while we have significant effort in 2023 and 2024, there will be continued – if you look across our entire portfolio, continued capacity coming online into the future years beyond that as well. If you look at confections, snacks, et cetera, across the board.

Michael Lavery

Really helpful color. Thank you.

Operator

Thank you. Our next question is in the line of Robert Moskow with Credit Suisse. Please proceed you with your questions.

Robert Moskow

Hi, thanks. Two very different questions. Are there any initial efforts being made to try to consolidate your snack brands together in either route to market or any other operating functions? My understanding is that they get to market in very different ways. And then also for Steve, just wanted to know if you can help us with seasonality in 2023. First half looks like a tough comparison but maybe that’s just OpEx [ph].

Michele Buck

Yes. So relative to our snack brands, to date we have been running those businesses separately as we have had a dedicated focus on continuing to drive ahead the amplified business and also to really integrate the Dot’s business as we just took it over in December.

Going forward, we are now starting to take a much more holistic look across all of salty with the focus as we go into 2023 on really how we integrate those businesses together across the board to really capture and leverage scale and synergy across everything. Supply chain, marketing, go-to-market, et cetera. So that’s really the phase that we are entering now, and I think we believe that’s how we will also begin to unlock some of the gross margin expansion that we need to go after on that business. Steve?

Steve Voskuil

Yes, very good. Nothing to add there. On the seasonality, I don’t think there is a big story. We’ve got a big year to laugh, full stop first and second half, and so I don’t think – we’re not thinking about a big nuance right now, first half versus second half. I don’t know if that’s helpful.

Robert Moskow

It’s simple. Thank you. I’ll take it.

Steve Voskuil

Thank you.

Operator

The next question comes from the line of Ken Goldman with J.P. Morgan. Please proceed with your questions.

Ken Goldman

Hi, just a very quick clarification. First Michele, I think, in response to Andrew’s question, if I heard correctly, you said that pricing in 2023 will be similar to 2021. I assume you meant similar to 2022. Unless I heard you wrong.

Michele Buck

Yes. Sorry about that.

Ken Goldman

That’s okay. I’ve lost time has lost all meeting to me post-COVID.

Steve Voskuil

I understand.

Ken Goldman

And then really just a quick summary of next year to make sure I heard you correctly there. So you’re talking about sales growth being very strong. You don’t have an EBIT algorithm, I think. But is it fair to assume, just to summarize that you’re expecting very strong sales growth, maybe a little bit higher than EBIT growth, which in turn is a little bit higher than EPS growth, but EPS growth still closer to maybe that 8% organic range with, I guess a small haircut from FX? Am I kind of summarizing that correctly?

Steve Voskuil

Yes, I think you’re in the right zip code. Yes.

Ken Goldman

Perfect. That’s all I have. Thank you.

Steve Voskuil

All right.

Michele Buck

Thanks.

Operator

The next question is from the line of Alexia Howard with Bernstein. Please just proceed with your question.

Alexia Howard

Good morning everyone.

Steve Voskuil

Good morning.

Michele Buck

Good morning.

Alexia Howard

Can I ask about the high-single digit increase in cost in 2023? I think generally we’ve been expecting that things might get a little bit easier. Obviously that is easier than what we’ve seen in 2022, but it’s still a pretty big hurdle to get over. Specifically, where are the pain points? What’s continuing to go up? How much of it is locked in? Do you have good visibility into that? And is it likely to moderate through the course of the year? So maybe hiring the first half versus the second half. Thank you. And I’ll pass it on.

Steve Voskuil

Sure. Yes, as you said, it’s high. It’s not as high as this year. And to that extent I like to be in a position when we give more guidance for next year to say we’re sort of stabilizing gross margins overall. But nonetheless, still expecting high-single-digit inflation. And where is it coming from? On the commodity side, we still have some commodity pressure in some commodities where we don’t have complete hedging coverage, packaging costs, logistics, still seeing inflation in people costs, some energy costs. I would also say technology is probably another one that’s starting to be a bigger component. And so across that basket, we’re still seeing high-single-digit inflation.

I would hope by the time we get to the back half of next year, you’re again, starting to see more moderation as we start to lap more of those inflationary costs, but still expecting a pretty significant list next year.

Our visibility is pretty good. With our hedging and longer term contracts, I think, we do have pretty good perspective on that number today.

Alexia Howard

Great. Thank you very much. I’ll pass it on.

Operator

Our next question is from the line of Pamela Kaufman with Morgan Stanley. Please proceed with your questions.

Pamela Kaufman

Good morning.

Michele Buck

Good morning.

Melissa A. Poole

Good morning.

Pamela Kaufman

Can you discuss the shipment timing dynamics that impacted Q3 results? You pointed to earlier seasonal shipments and inventory replenishment benefiting top line in the quarter. So where are retailer inventory levels now and are there any additional timing shifts that we should be aware of over the coming quarters?

And then just on the Q4 implied guidance, which points to deceleration to low-single digit growth, is that largely reflection of the inventory dynamics or are there other factors contributing to the outlook?

Steve Voskuil

Sure. On the inventory timing for Q3 the two big factors that we talked about were one, some inventory build as we mentioned, we didn’t expect as much inventory build as we saw in Q3. Again, what we did see wasn’t as big as we saw earlier in the year but it was a factor of bottom point. And then we also saw some seasonal pull forward, and this continues a little bit of a trend of retailers pulling seasons in earlier and earlier and saw – we saw about a two-point benefit in the third quarter from that. As we look to the fourth quarter we also expect we’ll see some seasonal pull forward with Valentine’s and Easter, so that will have some impact potentially on Q4. But the – probably the biggest factor in the Q4 guided really just the assumptions around elasticity and again, being a little bit prudent as we think about what’s happening with the consumer and not being quite as aggressive as maybe more recent elasticity we’ve seen.

Pamela Kaufman

Great. And can you comment on current promotional levels? You indicated that they’re back to more normalized levels. Can you address what types of promotions you’re implementing and how you’re balancing higher promotions with the capacity constraints? And then do you expect promotions to continue to step up next year?

Michele Buck

Yes. So our promotions are pretty much in line with historical. When we do promotion in this category, it’s always our first objective to get display because these can drive – this category can drive a lot of impulse. So a focus on feature and display, display where possible and as usual we always put a big focus on our core brands. So we may use news to create some excitement on a display, but we know that our core brands are the strongest mover and that’s really where the bulk of the focus will be. So it’s a bit where we are on promotion. If we think about next year we think we’ll be at about the same level as we’ve been. There might be some shifts across the quarters, but pretty much in line.

Pamela Kaufman

Great, thanks. I’ll pass it on.

Operator

The next question is from the line of Nick Modi with RBC. Please proceed with your questions.

Nick Modi

Yes. Thank you. Good morning everyone.

Michele Buck

Hi, Nick.

Nick Modi

Hi, Michele. So I was just wondering in terms of growth drivers, we’ve been getting a lot of good feedback on the pantry pack especially on the online channel, so I was just hoping you could talk a little bit about that and what your insights are saying, and maybe how – where you can take that strategy going forward?

And then the second thing would be just on alternate channels. I mean obviously FDM has been a very strong area for Hershey, but there seems to be a lot of pockets of opportunity and in other channels not measured. And I just wanted to get your thoughts on that strategy as you move forward?

Michele Buck

Yes, absolutely. So as we approach innovation we’ve really evolved our strategy over time to continue to provide product news, but also really to look at packaging as a big unlock because packaging enables us to provide consumers with our core brands, which they love but in a different packaging format that tends to open up a new occasion and that can be very powerful and very sustainable and that’s really what the pantry pack did. As consumers are spending more time at home it’s almost the ability to have their own single-serve dispenser in their pantry or in their refrigerator if they so desire.

So we’re really pleased with how it’s doing to date. We still have some distribution upside opportunity to further capture but it’s done what we were hoping to and we’ll continue to focus on packaging for new occasions. Relative to non measured and alternate channels, yes, this has always been a focus for us. I would say its capacity got tight, we pulled back a little bit, de-prioritized a little bit during COVID but we are really leaning back in now and the team is aggressively focused on really trying to get our products everywhere that they possibly can.

Nick Modi

Thank you. I’ll pass it on.

Operator

Our next question comes from the line of Jason English with Goldman Sachs. Please proceed with your question.

Jason English

Hey folks, good morning. Thanks for slotting me in.

Michele Buck

Good morning.

Jason English

A couple of questions. And so first in prepare remarks; I think you noted that you’re expecting growth trends on everyday products to moderate. Can you elaborate on what you’re seeing and also comment on how this influences your view of I guess how much more capacity you have to push price on every day and whether or not you should be looking to layer on a bit more promotion to counter whatever trend you’re seeing?

Michele Buck

So we’ve been pretty happy with the strong trends that we have seen on retail takeaway. And certainly throughout the year we’ve been trying to balance the seasonal sell through with everyday business and really look at the two somewhat holistically. I think we’ve been held back a little bit as you mentioned through capacity. We’re excited that next year we open up a bit more capacity, which then allows us to reinstate some of the spending that we had pulled back on, which we think will also provide some momentum for us going forward.

Jason English

Okay. Switching gears; M&A, your track record of late has been pretty successful. Your balance sheet certainly suggests you have capacity for more. Do you have organizational bandwidth to do more anytime soon or is all eyes of detention focused on integrating dots and also it sounds like not just integrating dots, but addressing the whole structure of salty snacks as you look to combine those businesses and leverage those synergies you discussed?

Michele Buck

I mean, certainly I would say job one for us is the integration and continued growth and acceleration of the entire salty portfolio. So we do really have scale there now and a lot of opportunity ahead of us. Great top line momentum and then opportunity to leverage that scale to improve the margin structure; so that’s clearly job one. That said we are always looking and evaluating the marketplace and given the health of our balance sheet, we certainly would consider something that made sense for us that we believe we could execute well.

Jason English

Understood.

Michele Buck

Yes.

Jason English

Understood. Thank you. I’ll pass it on.

Operator

The next question comes from the line of Chris Growe with Stifel. Please proceed with your questions.

Chris Growe

Hi, good morning.

Michele Buck

Good morning.

Steve Voskuil

Good morning.

Chris Growe

Hi. I just wanted to ask a little more of a near-term question around the fourth quarter. You had – it sounds like you have some further pull forward of next year’s season or 2023 seasons? And then I also think you have an easy shipping comparison with the previous year we had less shipping days in the fourth quarter of 2021. I just wanted to get a sense what that means for a volume in the fourth quarter with little extra seasons and then a little extra benefit from the shipping day factor?

Steve Voskuil

Yes. On the season side, it’s not a net benefit because we’ve pulled some of the Q4 into Q3 season, so we got a little bit of a deficit that will be potentially partly made up by pull forward at 2023 seasons, that’s probably the biggest piece; in terms of calendar-days it really not a big factor for shipping days.

Chris Growe

You had two less shipping days on the fourth quarter of 2021. Does that not compare beneficially to this year no?

Steve Voskuil

Not.

Michele Buck

I think the calendar only shift by maybe one-day this year, so it shouldn’t have a material impact.

Chris Growe

Okay. Got it. And I did – a quick question around the gross margin as I look at the gross margin decline year-over-year and look at the margins by division, I’m just curious is there more of a gross margin kind of lag or shortfall basically a pricing versus cost inflation shortfall in salty snacks versus confectionary. I’m just trying to get a sense of the pricing coming through in confectionary, should that benefit the margin and would that therefore benefit the overall gross margin more so? Or is it salty snacks that needs more pricing here to offset the inflation?

Steve Voskuil

Yes. So there’s a lot in there. I think obviously pricing on confectionary is great in the plan. We’ll see – we’ll see the full effect of that in the fourth quarter and it’ll be a big factor in the 2023 outlook. On salty we have taken price, it probably hasn’t come to the market quite as fast and as Michelle said, as we look at strengthening that business and the gross margins and at the same time continuing the rapid growth on the top line pricing is a lever like it is for all our businesses that we’ll continue to look at. And what I’m pleased with is we look at the progression of the salty margins even this year. We started out the first quarter order of magnitude, I think 1,200 basis points down year-over-year, that’s improved sequentially and we’d expect that to approve again in the fourth quarter. So as we get to the – as we get to next year continuing to drive margin improvement in that business through all levers available is going to be a high priority.

Chris Growe

Thank you.

Operator

The next question is from the line of Cody Ross with UBS. Please proceed with your question.

Cody Ross

Good morning. Thank you for taking our questions. Based on the prepared remarks, it sounds like your underlying volume excluding the seasonal shipments and retailer inventory replenishment was down. Is that correct? And how did that compare to your expectations?

Steve Voskuil

Q3 is roughly flat overall and I would say it was in line with expectations. Like I said, we probably put a little more inventory than we expected, but where we landed on base volume was more or less in line with what we expected.

Cody Ross

Thank you for that. And then I think you mentioned your chocolate market share was up versus pre pandemic. Can I assume that’s dollar share? Can you just comment on how that compares from a volume share perspective? Thank you.

Michele Buck

Yes. That was dollar share and it is similar from a volume share perspective.

Cody Ross

Okay, great. I’ll pass it on. Thank you.

Operator

The next question is from the line of Jonathan Feeney with Consumer Edge. Please proceed with your question.

Jonathan Feeney

Good morning. Thank you. Michele, you mentioned in your prepared remarks about a lot of food industry leaders have mentioned while reporting pretty good numbers in the past couple of weeks. A sense of, I think it was concern about or concern about the stress that inflation was bringing to consumers. And I think that’s certainly true and it’s certainly an impact on retailers, but if I just dived into the data you have like where are you seeing that, if anywhere? Is trade down behavior happening? And how, if you think about I don’t know prior periods where there’s nothing quite like this period, but say consumer distress accompanied by rising inflation. I think we had something like that dynamic in 2010. How did consumers behave and as you look forward how is this go around with the consumer reacting to a tougher environment driven by crowding out factor some other costs; how does this compare?

Michele Buck

Yes. So we remain very focused on the consumer and certainly we are aware of the pressures that are on them. What I would say is overall it has not impacted our total performance and overall product performance to a large degree. Yes, there are some shifts in terms of seeing more consumers buying value packs, purchasing in value channels, and then certainly in other categories where private label has really dialed up. But I would say overall we need to continue to be always focused on the consumer and when they could hit a breaking point, but to date as we look at our elasticity we really aren’t seeing signs of that impacting our business. That said, we’re going to be very focused on it going forward because we don’t want to – we don’t want to miss a trend. I would say historically our category has tended to fare pretty well during these times because it is an affordable indulgence when consumers can’t afford a lot of other things.

Jonathan Feeney

Very clear. Thank you.

Operator

Our next question is from the line of David Palmer with Evercore ISI. Please proceed with your question.

David Palmer

Thanks. Good morning. You mentioned in the prepared remarks that capacity was added for Reese’s and Gummies in 3Q. How much of a capacity increase was that? And were you in any way constrained on these platforms before this or is this just simply anticipatory of ongoing growth?

Michele Buck

Yes. We’re not going to get into a lot of the specifics around specific brand capacity just for overall competitive reasons. But yes, we were constrained on both and this capacity did allow us to unlock whether it was broader distribution, reinstating of promotions, upping our marketing spend selectively et cetera.

David Palmer

Yes. Understood on that. I wanted to ask on convenience channels and single-serve packaging, I’ve heard certain retail measures of food service like convenience store, food service have gotten stronger lately. I wonder where is your volume in convenience and single-serve packaging? If you look at checkout counters too; how does that compare versus pre-COVID? Are you all the way back is – is that ramping more quickly than some of your other packaging?

Michele Buck

I would say that overall for convenience stores in total not specific to our business, some of the trends have moderated particularly with regard to unit purchase, though I’d say snacking and confection products continued outpace the overall store and they are growing double digits. So certainly we had seen a pretty significant decline when consumers were not mobile and now that consumers are much more mobile than they were previously, we’ve seen that business really come back.

David Palmer

Is that going to be a meaningful help to profitability mix or is it not a big deal?

Michele Buck

No, not really. I mean, overall we sell single-serve in other units or in other channels as well. So no.

David Palmer

Thank you.

Operator
