Sean Connolly, president and chief executive officer of Conagra Brands, commented, "I am pleased by the solid progress we made in the first quarter with top line improvement and continued strategic execution across our portfolio. We successfully delivered on key supply chain objectives, fully restored service levels, and advanced our portfolio reshaping which enabled us to further reduce net debt. While the operating environment remains dynamic with ongoing inflationary pressure and cautious consumer sentiment, our focus remains on disciplined execution and balanced capital allocation. Today, we are reaffirming our fiscal 2026 guidance."
Total Company First Quarter Results
In the quarter, net sales decreased 5.8% to $2.6 billion reflecting:
- a 5.1% decrease from the unfavorable impact of M&A
- a 0.6% decrease in organic net sales; and
- a 0.1% decrease from the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange.
The 0.6% decrease in organic net sales was driven by a 0.6% positive impact from price/mix, inclusive of favorable trade expense timing and product mix, and a 1.2% decrease in volume. In the quarter, the company gained volume share in categories including frozen desserts, refrigerated whipped topping, hot dogs, pudding, canned tomatoes, and frozen multi-serve meals.
Gross profit decreased 13.4% to $641 million in the quarter and adjusted gross profit decreased 11.3% to $644 million as productivity was more than offset by lower net sales, the negative impact of cost of goods sold inflation, and lost profit from divested businesses. Gross margin decreased 212 basis points to 24.3% in the quarter, and adjusted gross margin decreased 153 basis points to 24.4%.
Selling, general, and administrative expense (SG&A), which includes advertising and promotional expense (A&P), increased 0.1% to $336 million in the quarter, and adjusted SG&A, which includes A&P, increased 1.5% to $333 million primarily driven by higher incentive compensation compared to the prior year period. A&P increased 5.0% to $53 million compared to the prior year period.
Net interest expense was $94 million in the quarter, an 11.4% decrease compared to the prior year period driven by a reduction in net debt.
The average diluted share count in the quarter was 480 million shares, reflecting $15 million in share repurchases during the first quarter of fiscal 2026.
In the quarter, net income attributable to Conagra Brands decreased 64.8% to $165 million, or $0.34 per diluted share compared to $467 million, or $0.97 per diluted share in the prior year period. Adjusted net income attributable to Conagra Brands decreased 25.1% to $189 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, compared to $253 million, or $0.53 per diluted share in the prior year period primarily as a result of the decrease in adjusted gross profit.
Adjusted EBITDA, which includes equity method investment earnings and pension and postretirement non-service income (expense), decreased 16.4% to $441 million in the quarter, primarily driven by the decrease in adjusted gross profit.
Grocery & Snacks Segment First Quarter Results
Net sales for the Grocery & Snacks segment decreased 8.7% to $1.1 billion in the quarter, reflecting:
- a 7.7% decrease from the unfavorable impact of M&A; and
- a 1.0% decrease in organic net sales.
The decrease in organic net sales was driven by a price/mix increase of 0.6% and a volume decrease of 1.6%.
Operating profit for the segment increased 5.0% to $262 million in the quarter and adjusted operating profit decreased 12.9% to $221 million as productivity was more than offset by lower organic net sales, the negative impact of cost of goods sold inflation, higher SG&A inclusive of A&P, and lost profit from divested businesses.
Refrigerated & Frozen Segment First Quarter Results
Net sales for the Refrigerated & Frozen segment decreased 0.9% to $1.1 billion in the quarter, reflecting:
- a 1.1% decrease from the unfavorable impact of M&A; and
- a 0.2% increase in organic net sales.
The increase in organic net sales was driven by a price/mix decrease of 0.3% and a volume increase of 0.5%. Volume in the quarter was favorably impacted from lapping last year's supply constraints on Hebrew National.
Operating profit for the segment decreased 35.8% to $113 million in the quarter and adjusted operating profit decreased 28.1% to $114 million as higher organic net sales and productivity were more than offset by the negative impact of cost of goods sold inflation, unfavorable operating leverage, and lost profit from divested businesses.
International Segment First Quarter Results
Net sales for the International segment decreased 18.0% to $212 million in the quarter reflecting:
- a 13.2% decrease from the unfavorable impact of M&A;
- a 3.5% decrease in organic net sales; and
- a 1.3% decrease from the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange.
The decrease in organic net sales was driven by a price/mix increase of 1.7% and a volume decrease of 5.2%.
Operating profit for the segment increased 11.2% to $37 million in the quarter and adjusted operating profit increased 5.3% to $38 million as productivity and favorable foreign exchange rates more than offset lower organic net sales, the negative impact of cost of goods sold inflation, and lost profit from divested businesses.
Foodservice Segment First Quarter Results
Net sales for the Foodservice segment decreased 0.8% to $264 million in the quarter, reflecting:
- a 1.0% decrease from the unfavorable impact of M&A; and
- a 0.2% increase in organic net sales.
The increase in organic net sales was driven by a price/mix increase of 3.8% and a volume decrease of 3.6%.
Operating profit and adjusted operating profit for the segment decreased 21.1% to $28 million as higher organic net sales and productivity were more than offset by the negative impact of cost of goods sold inflation, unfavorable operating leverage, and lost profit from divested businesses.
Other First Quarter Items
Corporate expenses increased 0.1% to $92 million and adjusted corporate expenses increased 5.2% to $90 million in the quarter driven primarily by higher incentive compensation expense compared to the prior year quarter.
The company realized pension and post-retirement non-service income of $6 million in the quarter compared to $3 million in the prior year quarter.
In the quarter, equity method investment earnings were $29 million, a 1.0% increase compared to the prior year period.
In the quarter, the effective tax rate was 43.1% compared to (42.4)% in the prior year quarter. The company was negatively impacted in the current quarter by tax expense connected to the Chef Boyardee and frozen seafood divestitures in comparison to the prior year quarter, during which the company booked a large benefit related to a federal tax audit settlement. The adjusted effective tax rate was 25.0% compared to 22.1% in the prior year quarter, driven by reduced benefits from stock compensation vesting.
In the quarter, the company paid a dividend of $0.35 per share.
Cash Flow and Debt Update
For the first quarter of fiscal 2026, the company generated $121 million in net cash flows from operating activities compared to $269 million in the prior year period, driven primarily by lower operating profit and increased levels of inventory reflecting inflationary cost increases in addition to rebuilding some inventory due to previous supply chain constraints. Capital expenditures were $147 million compared to $133 million in the prior year period. Additionally, the company's free cash flow decreased from the prior year period by $162 million to $(26) million. Dividends paid were flat to prior year at $167 million.
The company ended the quarter with net debt of $7.6 billion, representing a 12.3% reduction in net debt versus the prior year period, resulting in a 3.55x net leverage ratio at the end of the quarter.
Outlook
The company is reaffirming the following guidance for fiscal 2026:
- Organic net sales growth of (1)% to 1% compared to fiscal 2025
- Adjusted operating margin between ~11.0% and ~11.5%
- Adjusted EPS between $1.70 and $1.85
The company now expects interest expense of approximately $390 million and an adjusted effective tax rate of approximately 24% for the fiscal year. All other guidance metrics including equity earnings contribution, pension income, capital expenditures, free cash flow conversion, net leverage ratio, and the adjusted EPS benefit of the 53rd week remain unchanged from what was provided in the company's fourth quarter fiscal 2025 earnings release.
Included in the above guidance, the company expects cost of goods sold inflation to continue at an elevated level in fiscal 2026. Guidance anticipates core inflation slightly higher than 4%. In addition, the company expects an impact to fiscal 2026 from previously announced U.S. tariffs. While the tariff situation remains fluid, guidance contemplates a 50% tariff rate on imported tin plate steel and aluminum, a 30% rate on limited imports from China, and various country-specific reciprocal rates. Combined, these tariffs are expected to increase cost of goods sold by approximately 3% annually, prior to mitigating actions including accelerated cost savings initiatives, sourcing alternatives, and targeted pricing actions. Taken together, the company now expects total cost of goods sold inflation in the low 7% range.
The inability to predict the amount and timing of the impacts of foreign exchange, acquisitions, divestitures, and other items impacting comparability makes a detailed reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures impracticable. For the same reasons, the company is unable to address the probable significance of these items, which could be material to future results. Please see the end of this release for more information.
Items Affecting Comparability of EPS
The following are included in the $0.34 EPS for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 (EPS amounts are rounded and after tax). Please see the reconciliation schedules at the end of this release for additional details.
- Approximately $0.04 per diluted share of net expense related to the loss on sale of businesses
- Approximately $0.01 per diluted share of net expense related to restructuring plans
The following are included in the $0.97 EPS for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 (EPS amounts are rounded and after tax). Please see the reconciliation schedules at the end of this release for additional details.
- Approximately $0.44 per diluted share of net benefit related to a valuation allowance adjustment
- Approximately $0.03 per diluted share of net benefit related to fire-related insurance recoveries
- Approximately $0.01 per diluted share of net expense related to restructuring plans

We caution readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements included in this document, which speak only as of the date of this document. We undertake no responsibility to update these statements, except as required by law.
Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This document includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EPS, organic net sales, adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating profit, adjusted SG&A, adjusted corporate expenses, adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating margin, adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted net income attributable to Conagra Brands, free cash flow, net debt, net leverage ratio, and adjusted EBITDA. Management considers GAAP financial measures as well as such non-GAAP financial information in its evaluation of the company's financial statements. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors to facilitate year-over-year comparisons by removing non-recurring items and other items impacting comparability such as the impacts of foreign exchange, divested businesses and acquisitions, as well as the impact of any 53rd week, as noted in more detail for each measure below. We also believe the below financial measures are used by investors and analysts to assess the company's operating performance and financial position. These measures should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of, the company's diluted earnings per share, operating performance and financial measures as calculated in accordance with GAAP.
Organic net sales excludes, from reported net sales, the impacts of foreign exchange, divested businesses and acquisitions, as well as the impact of any 53rd week to provide a more transparent view of year-over-year comparability. All references to changes in volume and price/mix throughout this release are on an organic net sales basis.
Free cash flow is net cash from operating activities less additions to property, plant and equipment. Free cash flow conversion is free cash flow divided by adjusted net income attributable to Conagra Brands, Inc. We use this non-GAAP financial measure to provide additional information about the amount of cash available for debt repayment, dividend distributions, acquisition opportunities, and share repurchases after all of the company's business needs and obligations are met.
References to adjusted items throughout this release refer to measures computed in accordance with GAAP less the impact of items impacting comparability. Items impacting comparability are income or expenses (and related tax impacts) that management believes have had, or are likely to have, a significant impact on the earnings of the applicable business segment or on the total corporation for the period in which the item is recognized, and are not indicative of the company's core operating results. We exclude these items that we believe affect comparability of underlying results from period to period and may obscure trends in our underlying profitability.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, we revised our calculation methodology for Adjusted SG&A to include advertising and promotional (A&P) expense. Prior-year periods have been recast to reflect this new calculation methodology. Please refer to the tables in this press release for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measures using the updated calculation method to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP which include information about A&P expense in the footnotes.
References to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) refer to net income attributable to Conagra Brands before the impacts of discontinued operations, income tax expense (benefit), interest expense, depreciation, and amortization. For adjusted EBITDA, we exclude items resulting from infrequently occurring events or items that we believe significantly affect the year-to-year assessment of the company's operating results.
Hedge gains and losses are generally aggregated, and net amounts are reclassified from unallocated corporate expense to the operating segments when the underlying commodity or foreign currency being hedged is expensed in segment cost of goods sold. The net change in the derivative gains (losses) included in unallocated corporate expense during the period is reflected as a comparability item, Corporate hedging derivate gains (losses). Since our hedging contracts are generally for future periods, this adjustment facilitates year-over-year comparisons of cost of goods sold, matching the derivative gains and losses with the underlying economic exposure being hedged for the period.
Note on Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Our fiscal 2026 guidance includes certain non-GAAP financial measures (organic net sales growth, adjusted operating margin, adjusted EPS, net leverage ratio, and adjusted effective tax rate) that are presented on a forward-looking basis. Historically, the company has calculated these non-GAAP financial measures excluding the impact of certain items such as, but not limited to, foreign exchange, acquisitions, divestitures, restructuring expenses, the extinguishment of debt, hedging gains and losses, impairment charges, legacy legal contingencies, and unusual tax items. Reconciliations of these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are not provided because the company is unable to provide such reconciliations without unreasonable effort, due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty of predicting the timing and financial impact of such items. For the same reasons, the company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.

1 Includes advertising and promotion (A&P) expense of $52.9 million and $50.4 million for Q1 FY26 and Q1 FY25, respectively. A&P as a percentage of net sales was 2.0% and 1.8% for Q1 FY26 and Q1 FY25, respectively. During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, we revised our calculation methodology for Adjusted SG&A to include advertising and promotional (A&P) expense. Prior-year periods have been recast to reflect this new calculation methodology. |
