Ingredion: Delivering On Real Margin Performance Here
Ingredion's shares are appealing due to improved margins, low double-digit earnings multiples, and modest leverage, even after solid returns over the past year. The company has shown significant earnings improvements in 2024, driven by lower corn input costs and effective cost control, boosting adjusted earnings guidance to $10.50 per share.
