Ralcorp saw net sales leap 26% during the three months to the end of June, thanks mainly to recent acquisitions, including Bloomfield Bakers. Revenue reached US$583.5m.


However, net earnings slumped from $30.2m a year ago to $11.6m due to losses on contracts related to Vail Resorts, the leading mountain resort operator in the US.
