- INGR enjoyed a fantastic second quarter, as consumers ventured back out to restaurants and recent investments paid off.
- Though INGR's core, legacy business in starches and sweeteners (e.g. high fructose corn syrup) is slow-growing or stagnant, the company has pushed hard into faster growing specialty ingredients.
- Among these specialty ingredients are zero-calorie sweeteners like stevia and plant-based proteins like pea protein concentrate.
- I believe INGR is well-positioned to benefit from long-term consumer trends toward plant-based alternative meats and non-calorically sweetened beverages.
