Jason Merriam, SeekingAlpha:
ConAgra (CAG) – equity; current yield 4%. The packaged food business is a tough spot to be in these days, with rising input costs and discounting (to protect market share) being the biggest challenges.

Yet, ConAgra’s management has focused on their businesses. In recent years, ConAgra has shed non-core operations and concentrated on its leading brands. The company's new line of “Steamers” entrees are quite palatable and a great quick-meal option.

What we like most about CAG though is how well management navigated difficult economic environments while maintaining a flexible but sturdy balance sheet. Packaged foods aren’t a sexy business and it's a very capital intensive industry. CAG has done a terrific job of recycling capital and maintaining consistent operating cash flows.

More impressive, the company has done this without excessive accruals and messy adjustments. ConAgra has also been very candid about missteps; as a long-time holder of CAG shares, I value this as much as profitability.

CAG is not a flashy stock and it looks to be about 6% above our fair-value estimate. It’s the yield we like most, currently at a respectable 4%. We believe the payout is sustainable.

I like this company, it has a good management, they know what has caused them the problems and are working to solidify their markets. There has been about a 5% inflation is costs and they still have to realize gains of 5% in order to match that inflationary spiral. I find that they have good fundamentals, decent amounts of cash flow and overall I do believe they will bounce back from this blip. Of course the others in this segment are also suffering, but since CAG is so big they get hit harder. They are diversified, and have attractive product lines. I already own this stock and if it goes appreciably lower will probably purchase more shares.
