    Today, Utz Brands, Inc. released its second quarter 2024 financial results. Chief Executive Officer Howard Friedman said, "I'm pleased with our continued strong momentum in the second quarter, as we gained dollar, pound and unit share in the Salty Snack category for the third consecutive quarter(2). In addition, we delivered our sixth consecutive quarter of year-over-year Adjusted EBITDA Margin expansion, driven by strong Adjusted Gross Profit Margin growth, and we increased Adjusted Earnings per Share by 46%. We made necessary adjustments to our promotional activities during the quarter to address consumer value expectations. Our accelerated productivity cost savings provide us the flexibility to continue to expand our margins and increase investments behind our brands and support our geographic expansion. We expect our growth opportunities will drive strong volume growth in the second half of the year. I’d like to thank our 3,000-plus Utz associates around the country for their hard work and dedication in a dynamic environment, and I look forward to delivering a strong 2024 for all our stakeholders.“
