CEO Comments

Mark Clouse, Campbell's President and CEO, said, 'While we recognized the third quarter would be a challenging net sales comparison to the demand surge at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic a year ago, we faced additional headwinds. Our results were impacted by a rising inflationary environment, short-term increases in supply chain costs, and some executional pressures as we continued to advance our transformation agenda, primarily in our Snacks division. We are confident that these are all addressable, and we are taking appropriate actions, including putting pricing in place for the next fiscal year. Our confidence is further strengthened by the underlying health of our brands. Nearly three-quarters

of our portfolio gained or held share in the quarter, with most of our core categories having grown at higher rates than pre-pandemic levels.'

Third-Quarter Results from Continuing Operations

Net sales decreased 11% to $1.98 billion and organic net sales decreased 12% primarily as a result of lapping unprecedented demand of food purchases for at-home consumption at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in the prior-year quarter.

Gross margin decreased to 31.7% from 34.5% last year. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted gross margin decreased 290 basis points to 31.8% as higher cost inflation and other supply chain costs, as well as unfavorable mix and reduced operating leverage were partially offset by a net benefit from the change in mark-to-market adjustments on outstanding commodity hedges, supply chain productivity improvements and cost savings initiatives.

Marketing and selling expenses decreased 15% to $202 million driven by lower advertising and consumer promotion expense (A&C), lower incentive compensation, lower selling expenses and the benefits of cost savings initiatives. A&C decreased 14% primarily due to a reduction of spending in U.S. soup. As a percentage of sales, marketing and selling expenses were 10.2% compared to 10.7% in the prior year.

2

Administrative expenses decreased 1% to $153 million. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted administrative expenses decreased by $2 million, or 1%, to $142 million driven primarily by lower incentive compensation partially offset by higher benefit-related costs.

Other income was $23 million compared to other expenses of $81 million in the prior year. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted other income was $19 million compared to $18 million in the prior year.

As reported EBIT of $272 million was comparable to prior year. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted EBIT decreased 27% to $283 million primarily due to sales volume declines and lower adjusted gross margin performance, partially offset by lower marketing and selling expenses.

Net interest expense was $53 million compared to $55 million in the prior year reflecting lower levels of debt. The tax rate was 24.2% as compared to 23.9% in the prior year. Excluding items impacting comparability, the adjusted tax rate increased 70 basis points to 24.3% from 23.6%.

As reported EPS from continuing operations were $0.54 per share. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted EPS from continuing operations decreased 31% to $0.57 primarily reflecting the decrease in adjusted EBIT.

Nine-Month Results from Continuing Operations

Net sales of $6.60 billion were comparable to prior year. Organic net sales increased 1% from the prior year driven by lower promotional spending in both divisions. Meals & Beverages increased 1%, driven by growth in U.S. soup and V8 beverages, partially offset by declines in foodservice. In Snacks, organic net sales were flat as declines in Lance sandwich crackers and in partner brands within the Snyder's-Lance portfolio were offset by gains in salty snacks and fresh bakery products.

As reported EBIT increased 21% to $1.13 billion. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted EBIT of $1.14 billion was comparable to prior year, reflecting lower adjusted gross margin performance and increased adjusted administrative expenses offset by lower adjusted marketing and selling expenses, higher adjusted other income and sales volume gains. Within marketing and selling expenses, lower selling and other marketing costs were partially offset by a 3% increase in A&C.

Net interest expense was $162 million compared to $281 million in the prior year. Excluding items impacting comparability in the prior year, adjusted net interest expense decreased 21% from $206 million in the prior year to $162 million reflecting lower levels of debt. The tax rate was 25.9% as compared to

3

23.2% in the prior year. Excluding items impacting comparability, the adjusted tax rate of 24.1% was comparable to the prior year.

The company reported EPS from continuing operations of $2.36 per share. Excluding items impacting comparability, adjusted EPS from continuing operations increased 4% to $2.43 per share primarily reflecting lower adjusted net interest expense.

Cash flows from operations decreased from $1.13 billion in the prior year to $881 million primarily due to changes in working capital, principally lower accrued liabilities and a significant increase in accounts payable in the prior year. Capital investments were $190 million compared to $220 million in the prior year. The decline was primarily due to capital expenditures associated with discontinued operations in the prior year. In line with the company's commitment to returning value to shareholders, the company paid $327 million of cash dividends.

Share Repurchase

Effective today, the Board of Directors authorized a new anti-dilutive share repurchase program of up to $250 million to offset the impact of dilution from shares issued under the company's stock compensation programs. The program has no expiration date, but it may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Repurchases under the program may be made in open-market or privately negotiated transactions. The company's March 2017 strategic share repurchase program remains suspended.

Cost Savings Program from Continuing Operations

In the third quarter of fiscal 2021, Campbell achieved $20 million in savings under its multi-year cost savings program, inclusive of Snyder's-Lance synergies, bringing total program-to-date savings to approximately $780 million. Campbell remains on track to deliver annualized savings of $850 million by the end of fiscal 2022.

Campbell Updates Full-Year Fiscal 2021 Guidance

Campbell is updating its full-year fiscal 2021 guidance to reflect its third-quarter results and the impact of the sale of the Plum baby food and snacks business on May 3, 2021. In the fourth quarter, the company expects continued margin pressure related to its transition out of the COVID-19 environment, and more pronounced inflation while pricing actions take hold in the beginning of fiscal 2022. As a reminder, fiscal 2020 benefited from a 53rd week, which was estimated to be worth 2 percentage points of net sales, and approximately $0.04 on adjusted EPS.

Based on the foregoing, the company is now providing full-year fiscal 2021 guidance as set forth in the table below:

4

Continuing Operations	FY 2020 Results	Previous FY 2021 Guidance	Updated FY 2021 Guidance
($ in millions, except per share)
Net Sales	$8,691	-3.5% to -2.5%	-3.5% to -3.0%

Meals & Beverages

Net sales in the quarter decreased 14% and organic net sales decreased 15% primarily due to declines across U.S. retail products, including U.S. soup and Prego pasta sauces as well as declines in Canada and foodservice. Volume decreased in U.S. retail driven by lapping increased demand of food purchases for at-home consumption at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in the prior-year quarter. Sales of U.S. soup decreased 21% due to volume declines in condensed soups, ready-to-serve soups and broth.

Segment operating earnings decreased 35%. The decrease was primarily due to sales volume declines and lower gross margin performance partially offset by lower marketing and selling expenses. Gross margin performance was impacted by higher cost inflation and other supply chain costs, reduced operating leverage and unfavorable product mix, partially offset by the benefits of supply chain productivity improvements.

Snacks

Net sales in the quarter, both reported and organic, decreased 8% driven by volume declines within the salty snacks portfolio, including Pop Secret popcorn, Cape Cod potato chips and Snyder's of Hanover pretzels, as well as in Lance sandwich crackers, partner brands and fresh bakery. Volume declines were partially driven by lapping increased demand of food purchases for at-home consumption at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in the prior-year quarter.

Segment operating earnings decreased 29% for the quarter driven by lower gross margin performance and sales volume declines, partially offset by lower marketing and selling expenses and lower administrative expenses. Gross margin performance was impacted by higher cost inflation and other

6

supply chain costs, reduced operating leverage and unfavorable product mix, partially offset by the benefits of supply chain productivity improvements.

Corporate

Corporate expenses were $14 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to $156 million in the prior year. Corporate expenses in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 included costs of $13 million related to cost savings initiatives and pension settlement gains of $4 million. Corporate expenses in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 included pension settlement charges of $54 million, investment losses of $45 million and costs of $14 million related to cost savings initiatives. Excluding these amounts, the remaining decrease in expenses was primarily due to mark-to-market gains on outstanding commodity hedges in the current year compared to losses in the prior year, partially offset by higher administrative expenses.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Third Quarter Ended May 2, 2021

Campbell Soup Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission in certain communications. These non-GAAP financial measures are measures of performance not defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should be considered in addition to, not in lieu of, GAAP reported measures. Management believes that also presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures provides additional information to facilitate comparison of the company's historical operating results and trends in its underlying operating results, and provides transparency on how the company evaluates its business. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the company's performance.

Organic Net Sales

Organic net sales are net sales excluding the impact of currency, acquisitions and divestitures. Management believes that excluding these items, which are not part of the ongoing business, improves the comparability of year-to-year results. A reconciliation of net sales as reported to organic net sales follows.

Items Impacting Earnings
