The Spin

Narrative A

This is a bold move from Ferrero that will strengthen its foothold in U.S. markets while the firm continues with its aims of expanding globally. This acquisition, if it proceeds, makes strategic sense for the company.

Narrative B

As consumers are switching over to healthier options, convenience food firms have struggled to adjust and have seen their profits decline. This is a risky play for Ferrero.
