Key Highlights

Net Sales Increased 3% Consolidated Net Sales reached $8,158.1M, marking a 3% increase driven by strong Foodservice segment performance.
Foodservice Segment Profit Surges Foodservice profit grew 30% to $399.7M, fueled by egg pricing and inclusion of PPI potato products volumes.

Debt Increased Post Acquisitions Total debt reached $7,452.2M following 8th Avenue and PPI acquisitions, increasing financing obligations for the period.

Risk Factors

Input Costs and Supply Chain Risk Volatility in raw material, energy, and freight costs continues to pressure margins despite easing input cost pressures in FY2025.
High Leverage Limits Flexibility Substantial debt level of $7.45B limits financing options and liquidity, especially if credit ratings are revised downward.
Cereal Category Continues Weakness Post Consumer Brands and Weetabix face continued weakness in the mature ready-to-eat cereal category impacting sales volumes.
Goodwill Impairment Recorded Recorded $29.8M goodwill impairment charge in Refrigerated Retail segment due to narrowing branded/private label pricing gap.

Outlook

Pasta Business Divestiture Planned Entered agreement to sell 8th Avenue’s Pasta Business, expected to close in Q1 fiscal 2026, generating approximately $375.0M cash.
Focus on Growth and Innovation Strategy centers on expanding market penetration, entering new markets, and enhancing product portfolio with innovative offerings.
Pension Funding Uncertainties Remain Future pension contributions remain uncertain, dependent on actuarial assumptions and actual return on plan assets beyond fiscal 2026.
