M&A, including the acquisitions of soup maker Protenergy Foods and of assets owned by dairy co-op Associated Milk Producers, pushed up sales by 14 percentage points.

The preliminary results come ahead of a full announcement next month. TreeHouse said its adjusted earnings for the quarter “are expected to be very close to consensus estimates for the quarter”.
