Packaged food and dairy products maker WhiteWave Foods Inc. (NYSE: WWAV) announced preliminary data for its second quarter after markets closed today. The company said it would report net sales of $616 million and adjusted EPS of $0.16. The revenue figure is higher than the consensus estimate of $608.17 million and the EPS figure is right on target. WhiteWave plans to report second quarter earnings on August 9th.

Shareholders are very unhappy, sending the stock down almost 13% after hours today, to $1.62, in a 52-week range of $0.80 to $2.04.
