J&J Snack Foods posted a 13% drop in third-quarter net earnings yesterday (24 July), citing the high cost of wheat, dairy and fuel.


 


Earnings sank to US$10.8m, or $0.57 per share, down from $12.5m, or $0.66 per share, reported for the comparable period of last year.


 


Sales, however, were up 9% for the quarter, increasing to $176.8m from $162.5m.
