Lancaster Colony: Q3 Reflects The Impact Of Consumer Weakness Lancaster Colony's fiscal Q3 reflected a weaker consumer. Foodservice sales declined especially much based on weaker restaurant traffic, and retail performance also showed weaker demand. The weak sales performance was offset in the bottom line by Lancaster's supply chain and cost initiatives. With a healthier long-term outlook, I estimate Lancaster's stock to have a fair value of $154.5. seekingalpha.com - 2 weeks ago
