"During 2025, market conditions remained attractive as input costs were relatively stable and the affordability of chicken continued to resonate among consumers," said Fabio Sandri, Pilgrim's CEO. "Given our effective strategies, competitive advantages, and consistent execution, we delivered another year of strong results"

The U.S. portfolio continues to evolve. The Fresh business outpaced industry growth, driven by ongoing strength of Case Ready in retail and Small Bird in QSR. Big Bird improved efficiencies in both plant and live operations. Prepared Foods accelerated the momentum of brand offerings as Just Bare- grew market share by nearly 300 basis points year over year.

"Our results in the U.S. are a testament to the strength of our operations and disciplined management approach," remarked Sandri. "Given our progress over the past year, we've developed a more resilient, well-balanced portfolio positioned to capture market upsides while minimizing downside risks."

Europe also delivered improved sales and adjusted EBITDA, supported through progress in manufacturing optimization, management integration, and enhanced mix. Key Customer demand remained positive with new product launches, whereas Fridge Raiders- and Rollover- again outpaced category growth.

"Over the past three years, Pilgrim's Europe has undergone a significant transformation," said Sandri. "As a result, we now have a stronger, more agile foundation to drive innovation, build Key Customer partnerships, and cultivate our branded portfolio."

Mexico improved sales and volume compared to 2024, while margins were pressured given weakened commodity fundamentals in the second half of the year. Diversification efforts continued to accelerate from ongoing growth in fresh branded offerings, rotisserie, and prepared foods.

"Mexico has great growth opportunities, given its long-term economic potential and our market presence," said Sandri. "As such, we are investing to create a broader geographical footprint in fresh and expand our presence in prepared foods, further diversifying our portfolio."

In the fourth quarter, the U.S. had mitigated softened commodity market fundamentals with strong Key Customer demand in Case Ready, Small Bird and Prepared Foods, while enhancing operational efficiencies in Big Bird.

"Our performance reflects both the progress and benefits of our long-term strategies," Sandri said. "Even with volatility in commodity cut-out values, the U.S. business delivered strong results."

In Europe, adjusted EBITDA rose nearly 9% compared to the same quarter last year. Demand for higher-attribute poultry offerings rose above category averages within select retailers. Pilgrim's portfolio of key brands grew and operational excellence continued to generate improvements.

"We continue to realize benefits from our focused efforts in Europe, improving in sales and adjusted EBITDA for Q4," said Sandri. "Moving forward, we'll continue to prioritize innovation, branded growth, and mix."

Mexico's profitability during the quarter was limited, given increased imports of animal protein and weakened commodity fundamentals. In Fresh, Key Customer partnerships remained steady, whereas branded sales rose nearly 10% compared to last year. Investments to expand the Fresh and Prepared Foods categories remained on track.

In sustainability, external agencies continue to recognize the company's progress, with improved scores across environmental and social metrics compared to 2024. Operations made progress against their direct and indirect emissions intensity used for processing.

"Our approach to sustainability aligns with our vision, strategy, and methods," Sandri concluded. "Through continued focus on doing the right thing, we are confident in our ability to become the best and most respected company in our industry while creating the opportunity of a better future for our team members."

Selected Financial Information
(Unaudited)

"EBITDA" is defined as the sum of net income (loss) 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 (gains), (2) costs related to litigation settlements, (3) restructuring activities losses, (4) loss on settlement of pension from plan termination, (5) inventory write-down as a result of hurricane, and (6) net income attributable to noncontrolling interest. 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)Prior to April 1, 2024, the Company measured the financial statements of its Mexico reportable segment as if the U.S. dollar were the functional currency. Accordingly, we remeasured assets and liabilities, other than nonmonetary assets, of the Mexico reportable segment at current exchange rates. We remeasured 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 were previously recognized in the line item Foreign currency transaction losses (gains) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Effective April 1, 2024, the Company changed the functional currency of its Mexico reportable segment from U.S. dollar to Mexican peso, which means all translation gains/losses on outstanding balances are now recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income. Transactional functional currency gains/losses are included in the line item Foreign currency transaction losses (gains) 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 related to costs incurred, such as severance, asset impairment, contract termination, and others, as part of multiple ongoing restructuring initiatives throughout our Europe reportable segment.
(e)This represents a loss recognized on the settlement of pension plan obligations related to a plan termination of our two U.S. defined benefit plans.
(f)This primarily represents broiler losses incurred as a result of Hurricane Helene in late September 2024.

The summary unaudited consolidated income statement data for the 12 months ended December 28, 2025 (the LTM Period) have been calculated by summing each of the unaudited three month periods within the audited year ended December 28, 2025.

(b)Prior to April 1, 2024, the Company measured the financial statements of its Mexico reportable segment as if the U.S. dollar were the functional currency. Accordingly, we remeasured assets and liabilities, other than nonmonetary assets, of the Mexico reportable segment at current exchange rates. We remeasured 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 were previously recognized in the line item Foreign currency transaction losses (gains) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Effective April 1, 2024, the Company changed the functional currency of its Mexico reportable segment from U.S. dollar to Mexican peso, which means all translation gains/losses on outstanding balances are now recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income. Transactional functional currency gains/losses are included in the line item Foreign currency transaction losses (gains) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Adjusted net income attributable to Pilgrim's Pride Corporation ("Pilgrim's") is calculated by adding to net income attributable to Pilgrim's certain items of expense and deducting from net income 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.

Favoritenwechsel
Das Börsenjahr 2026 ist für viele Anleger ernüchternd gestartet. Tech-Werte straucheln, der Nasdaq 100 tritt auf der Stelle und ausgerechnet alte Favoriten wie Microsoft und SAP rutschen zweistellig ab. KI ist plötzlich kein Rückenwind mehr, sondern ein Belastungsfaktor, weil Investoren beginnen, die finanzielle Nachhaltigkeit zu hinterfragen.

Gleichzeitig vollzieht sich an der Wall Street ein lautloser Favoritenwechsel. Während viele auf Wachstum setzen, feiern Value-Titel mit verlässlichen Cashflows ihr Comeback: Telekommunikation, Industrie, Energie, Pharma – die „Cashmaschinen“ der Realwirtschaft verdrängen hoch bewertete Hoffnungsträger.

In unserem aktuellen Spezialreport stellen wir fünf Aktien vor, die genau in dieses neue Marktbild passen: solide, günstig bewertet und mit attraktiver Dividende. Werte, die nicht nur laufende Erträge liefern, sondern auch bei Marktkorrekturen Sicherheit bieten.
