PARSIPPANY, N.J. (AP) β€” B&G Foods Inc. on Thursday reported second-quarter net income of $256,000.

On a per-share basis, the New Jersey-based company said it had net income of less than 1 cent. Earnings, adjusted for one-time gains and costs, were 7 cents per share.

The results missed Wall Street expectations. The average estimate of four analysts surveyed by Zacks Investment Research was for earnings of 27 cents per share.
