Kellogg Co reported higher quarterly profit on Thursday, helped by strong performance in its Pringles business.

The world's largest cereal maker reported net income of $296 million, or 82 cents per share, for the third quarter, compared with $290 million, or 80 cents per share, a year earlier.

The results included 4 cents per share in integration costs related to the acquisition of Pringles.

Kellogg reaffirmed its outlook for full-year earnings per share of $3.18 to $3.30. (Reporting By Martinne Geller in New York; Editing by Gerald E. McCormick)
