The Hershey Company (HSY) has released an update to notify the public and investors about termination and asset disposition expenses.
The Board of Directors of a company has greenlighted an ambitious productivity plan, “Advancing Agility & Automation,” aimed at refining the supply chain, reducing administrative costs, and embracing technology for better efficiency. The initiative, running until 2026, is projected to cost $200-$250 million, with the bulk going to restructuring and tech upgrades. It’s a tough pill to swallow with expected workforce cuts, but the payoff is a hefty $300 million in annual savings post-completion.
