“Throughout the past 12 months, our consistent execution and focus on portfolio diversification, growth with Key Customers, and operational excellence has been instrumental in our ability to navigate extremely volatile market conditions.   Our business profitability increased quarter over quarter yet again despite challenges in overall protein availability and lingering inflation,” said Fabio Sandri, Chief Executive Officer.

In the U.S., margins significantly improved from the first quarter despite continuing challenges in the market conditions of the commodity Big Bird segment, given an intense focus on our operational excellence efforts.   Case Ready and Small Bird maintained steady performance while cultivating promotional activity and growth with Key Customers. Prepared Foods continues its branded momentum as Just Bare® and Pilgrim’s® sales collectively grew over 56% from last year.

“Q2 was still challenging for the commodity segment. Although market conditions have recently improved, the team is in the process of executing a variety of action items to further drive operational excellence.   We maintain our commitment to profitable growth through our continued investment in automation, expansion at our Athens, Georgia facility, and construction of a new protein conversion plant in South Georgia,” remarked Fabio Sandri.

As for the U.K. and Europe business, momentum continued as profitability grew for the fifth straight quarter given benefits from recent network optimization, continued cost recovery efforts, and growth with Key Customers through innovation and strong service levels.

“Throughout the past year, the team has been exceptionally diligent in driving cost efficiencies throughout our manufacturing network, recovery of inflationary impacts, and synergies from back office integration.   We are pleased with the remarkable progress over the past year, we will continue to explore opportunities to profitably grow our business,” said Fabio Sandri.

Mexico results improved relative to both first quarter and prior year as supply and demand fundamentals became progressively balanced, overall live performance improved, and interest in our branded offerings increased.  

“Throughout the past several quarters, Mexico maintained strong service levels to Key Customers and grew its branded presence despite challenges in live operations.   We commend the team for their rapid response and operational excellence efforts to alleviate these issues.   Our continued investments in this region will further lessen future potential concerns and provide the foundation for additional profitable growth,” remarked Fabio Sandri.

Pilgrim’s continues to make progress in Sustainability as it recently completed an inventory of its GHG emissions footprint.   These efforts have been further amplified by energy audits, installation of metering systems, and training at its US locations.     

“The completion of our GHG inventory strengthens the foundation to reduce our emissions footprint throughout our supply chain. Equally important, we have implemented a variety of tools and management processes to evaluate our progress and identify additional opportunities in our production facilities,” said Fabio Sandri.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation

(Unaudited)

“EBITDA” is defined as the sum of net income plus interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. “Adjusted EBITDA” is calculated by adding to EBITDA certain items of expense and deducting from EBITDA certain items of income that we believe are not indicative of our ongoing operating performance consisting of: (1) foreign currency transaction losses, (2) costs related to litigation settlements, (3) restructuring activities losses, (4) transaction costs related to acquisitions, (5) property insurance recoveries for Mayfield, Kentucky tornado property damage losses, and (6) net income attributable to noncontrolling interests. EBITDA is presented because it is used by management and we believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, in addition to and not in lieu of results prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”), to compare the performance of companies. We believe investors would be interested in our Adjusted EBITDA because this is how our management analyzes EBITDA applicable to continuing operations. The Company also believes that Adjusted EBITDA, in combination with the Company’s financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, provides investors with additional perspective regarding the impact of certain significant items on EBITDA and facilitates a more direct comparison of its performance with its competitors. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of financial performance under U.S. GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for an analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. In addition, other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income as indicators of our operating performance or any other measures of performance derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These limitations should be compensated for by relying primarily on our U.S. GAAP results and using EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA only on a supplemental basis.

(a)Interest expense, net, consists of interest expense less interest income.
(b)The Company measures the financial statements of its Mexico reportable segment as if the U.S. dollar were the functional currency. Accordingly, we remeasure assets and liabilities, other than nonmonetary assets, of the Mexico reportable segment at current exchange rates. We remeasure nonmonetary assets using the historical exchange rate in effect on the date of each asset’s acquisition. Currency exchange gains or losses resulting from these remeasurements, as well as, from our U.K. and Europe reportable segment are included in the line item Foreign currency transaction losses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
(c)This represents expenses recognized in anticipation of probable settlements in ongoing litigation.
(d)Restructuring activities losses are primarily related to restructuring initiatives at multiple production facilities throughout our U.K. and Europe reportable segment.
(e)Transaction costs related to acquisitions includes those charges that are incurred in conjunction with business acquisitions.
(f)This represents property insurance recoveries for the property damage losses incurred as a result of the tornado in Mayfield, KY in December 2021.
  

The summary unaudited consolidated income statement data for the twelve months ended June 25, 2023 (the LTM Period) have been calculated by subtracting the applicable unaudited consolidated income statement data for the six months ended June 26, 2022 from the sum of (1) the applicable audited consolidated income statement data for the year ended December 25, 2022 and (2) the applicable unaudited consolidated income statement data for the six months ended June 25, 2023.

Adjusted net income attributable to Pilgrim's Pride Corporation (“Pilgrim's”) is calculated by adding to Net income (loss) attributable to Pilgrim's certain items of expense and deducting from Net income (loss) attributable to Pilgrim's certain items of income, as shown below in the table. Adjusted net income attributable to Pilgrim’s Pride Corporation per common diluted share is presented because it is used by management, and we believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, in addition to and not in lieu of results prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, to compare the performance of companies. Management also believe that this non-U.S. GAAP financial measure, in combination with our financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, provides investors with additional perspective regarding the impact of such charges on net income attributable to Pilgrim’s Pride Corporation per common diluted share. Adjusted net income attributable to Pilgrim’s Pride Corporation per common diluted share is not a measurement of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Management believes that presentation of adjusted net income attributable to Pilgrim’s provides useful supplemental information about our operating performance and enables comparison of our performance between periods because certain costs shown below are not indicative of our current operating performance.
