The natural and organic food company said that a number of issues – including a product recall and product line rationalisation – resulted in a post-tax expenses of $6m. SunOpta said that profitability was also hit by “margin challenges on domestic raw materials”.

However, the company emphasised that sales in the period rose to  a “record” high of $285m, up 5.6% year-on-year.

SunOpta will report its full-year and fourth quarter results in early March.
