Description: SMPL Simply Good Foods January 12, 2026
The Simply Good Foods Company (NASDAQ: SMPL) is a Denver-based CPG firm that develops, markets, and sells a broad portfolio of high-protein snacks and meal-replacement products-including bars, ready-to-drink shakes, cookies, chips, powders, and confectionery-under the Quest, Atkins, and OWYN brands. Its distribution network spans mass-merchandise, grocery, drug, club, convenience, gas-station, and e-commerce channels, with direct-to-consumer sites and major platforms such as Amazon.
Key data points to note: SMPL reported FY 2023 revenue of roughly $1.0 billion, up ~12% YoY, driven by a 20% surge in e-commerce sales and expanding presence in the fast-growing U.S. protein snack market, which is projected to compound at ~8% annually through 2027. The company’s gross margin has hovered around 45%, reflecting premium pricing but also higher ingredient costs; inflationary pressure on protein inputs remains a material risk. A notable sector driver is the continued consumer shift toward health-focused, low-sugar alternatives, which underpins demand for SMPL’s “clean label” offerings.
