  • Prepared Foods sales $244.8M, up from $4.1M due to acquisitions; acquisition spend $427.8M; share repurchase $131.1M; dividends $231.6M paid

Risk Factors

  • DOJ antitrust investigation into nationwide egg price increases; settled June 2026, settlement pending court approval
  • Geopolitical conflicts and weather caused feed price volatility; corn and soybean meal costs increased four consecutive years before declining in fiscal 2026
  • HPAI outbreaks caused depopulation of 352,000 pullets at Maryland facility in March 2026, negatively impacting production capacity
  • Walmart accounted for 30.0% of net sales in fiscal 2026, posing customer concentration risk and pricing pressure potential
  • ERP system implementation underway with risks of delays, increased costs, or disruptions that could materially affect operations and financial results
