Adjusted EPS came in at $0.56, falling short of the $0.58 consensus estimate by 3.45%, while net sales declined 4.3% year-over-year to $2.78 billion, also missing the $2.88 billion Wall Street expected by 3.45%. The shortfall was driven in large part by a 12.1% drop in gross profit to $707.20 million, as cost of goods sold inflation and unfavorable operating leverage overwhelmed productivity gains, compressing adjusted gross margin by 184 basis points to 25.8%. Shares fell to their lowest level since 2012 in the aftermath. The pain is unlikely to ease quickly; fiscal 2026 guidance calls for adjusted EPS of just $1.70 to $1.85, reflecting approximately 7% total COGS inflation, including an estimated 3% tariff-related impact on tin plate steel, aluminum, and Chinese goods, with organic net sales expected to range from -1% to 1%.

Key Takeaways

  • Volume declines of 2.5% driven by lower consumption trends
  • Negative price/mix impact of 1.0%
  • Higher than expected COGS inflation offsetting productivity gains
  • Unfavorable foreign exchange impact of 0.6%
  • Lower incentive compensation reducing SG&A
  • Volume share gains in frozen desserts, microwave popcorn, refrigerated whipped topping, and pudding
  • Ardent Mills joint venture delivered 30.9% increase in adjusted equity method investment earnings

“I'm proud of the Conagra team for their hard work throughout fiscal 2025 as we navigated an environment that proved to be more challenging than we anticipated. We entered the year focused on returning volume to growth and delivered consistent progress through the first half. This resulted in a return to absolute volume growth in domestic retail in the second quarter, best-in-class market share performance, and first half EPS in line with our plan. While the second half was impacted by higher than expected inflation, foreign exchange headwinds, and supply constraints, our long-term value creation strategy remains unchanged.”
