As previously reported by FOX Business, when Campbell Soup announced that it would undertake a strategic review, its CEO Denise Morrison left the company. Kevin McLoughlin, a board member, is serving as CEO in the interim – and the results of the strategic review are expected in August.

Campbell Soup shares were rallying on Monday. If the rally continues, the company may post its largest percent increase on record. The current record is May 24, 2000, when shares rose 11.21%.

Prior to Monday's move higher Campbell Soup shareshad fallen about 20% this year. The company completed its $6.1 billion buyout of Snyder’s-Lance in March.
