GENERAL MILLS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(1) Background
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements of General Mills, Inc. (we, us, our, General Mills, or the Company) have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information
and with the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include certain information and disclosures
required for comprehensive financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature, including the elimination of all intercompany transactions.
Operating results for the fiscal quarter ended February 22, 2026, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the fiscal year ending May 31, 2026.
These statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes included in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 25, 2025. The accounting policies used in preparing these Consolidated Financial
Statements are the same as those described in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in that Form 10-K.
Certain reclassifications to our previously reported financial information have been made to conform to the current period
presentation.
Certain terms used throughout this report are defined in the “Glossary” section below.
(2) Acquisition and Divestitures
During the first quarter of fiscal 2026, we completed the sale of our United States yogurt business to Groupe Lactalis S.A. and
recorded a pre-tax gain of $1,046.5 million.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, we completed the sale of our Canada yogurt business to Sodiaal International and recorded a
pre-tax gain of $95.9 million. In the first quarter of fiscal 2026, we recorded a sale price adjustment that resulted in a $7.9 million
increase to the pre-tax gain.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, we acquired NX Pet Holding, Inc., representing Whitebridge Pet Brands’ North American
premium cat feeding and pet treating business, for a purchase price of $1.4 billion (Whitebridge Pet Brands acquisition). We financed
the transaction with cash on hand and new debt. We consolidated Whitebridge Pet Brands into our Consolidated Balance Sheets and
recorded goodwill of $1,086.7 million, an indefinite-lived intangible asset for the Tiki Pets brand totaling $289.0 million, and a finite-
lived customer relationship asset of $31.0 million. The goodwill is included in the North America Pet segment and is not deductible
for tax purposes. The pro forma effects of this acquisition were not material. The consolidated results are reported in our North
America Pet operating segment on a one-month lag. In fiscal 2026, we recorded a $31.9 million decrease to goodwill, primarily related
to adjustments to certain purchase accounting liabilities upon finalization of income tax returns recorded in the second quarter of fiscal
2026.
On March 16, 2026, subsequent to the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2026, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell our
business in Brazil to Café Três Corações S.A. (3corações) for a base purchase price of R$800.0 million, subject to certain specified
deductions and customary post-closing adjustments. The sale is anticipated to close by the end of calendar 2026, subject to regulatory
approvals and other customary closing conditions. We expect to record a pre-tax loss on the sale, which will include the recognition of
accumulated foreign currency translation losses that totaled $622.1 million as of February 22, 2026. Additionally, as of February 22,
2026, we have $238.3 million of net deferred tax assets held in Brazil.

In the third quarter of fiscal 2026, we did not undertake any new restructuring or transformation actions. We recorded $25.1 million of
restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 and $75.4 million of restructuring charges in the nine-month period ended
February 22, 2026, related to the multi-year organizational initiative to increase the competitiveness of our supply chain approved in
the second quarter of fiscal 2026. In the third quarter of fiscal 2026, we increased the estimate of restructuring charges that we expect
to incur related to these supply chain actions due to the identification of additional opportunities. As a result, we expect to incur a total
of approximately $96 million of restructuring charges for this initiative, of which approximately $28 million will be cash. These
charges are expected to consist of approximately $66 million of asset write-offs and $30 million of other costs, including severance.
We expect these actions to be completed by the end of fiscal 2029.
We recorded $7.7 million of restructuring and transformation charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 and $47.9 million of
restructuring and transformation charges in the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, related to actions previously announced.
We recorded a $0.6 million net recovery of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 and $3.6 million of restructuring
charges in the nine-month period ended February 23, 2025, related to restructuring actions previously announced. We expect these
actions to be completed by the end of fiscal 2028.
We paid net $67.1 million of cash in the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, related to restructuring and transformation
actions. We paid net $7.0 million of cash in the same period of fiscal 2025.
In the second quarter of fiscal 2026, we recorded a $52.9 million non-cash impairment charge related to our Uncle Toby’s brand
intangible asset. Please see Note 4 for additional information.
Restructuring, transformation, and impairment charges (recoveries) are recorded in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings as

The charges recognized in the roll forward of our reserves for restructuring, transformation, and other exit costs do not include items
charged directly to expense (e.g., asset write-offs, asset impairment charges, and the gain or loss on the sale of restructured assets) and
other periodic exit costs recognized as incurred, as those items are not reflected in our restructuring, transformation, and other exit cost
reserves on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Our annual goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment test was performed on the first day of the second quarter of
fiscal 2026. As a result of lower future sales and profitability projections for the business supporting our Uncle Toby’s brand
intangible asset, we determined that the fair value of the brand intangible asset no longer exceeded its carrying value and recorded a
$52.9 million non-cash impairment charge. We recorded the impairment charge in restructuring, transformation, impairment, and other
exit costs in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Our estimate of the fair value was determined based on a discounted cash flow
model using inputs which included our long-range cash flow projections for the business, the royalty rate, the weighted-average cost
of capital rate, and the tax rate. The fair value is a Level 3 asset in the fair value hierarchy.
All other intangible asset fair values were substantially in excess of the carrying values. In addition, while having significant coverage
as of our fiscal 2026 assessment date, the Progresso, Nudges, True Chews, and Kitano brand intangible assets had risk of decreasing
coverage. We will continue to monitor these businesses for potential impairment.

(6) Risk Management Activities
Many commodities we use in the production and distribution of our products are exposed to market price risks. We utilize derivatives
to manage price risk for our principal ingredients and energy costs, including grains (oats, wheat, and corn), oils (principally soybean),
dairy products, natural gas, and diesel fuel. Our primary objective when entering into these derivative contracts is to achieve certainty
with regard to the future price of commodities purchased for use in our supply chain. We manage our exposures through a
combination of purchase orders, long-term contracts with suppliers, exchange-traded futures and options, and over-the-counter options
and swaps. We offset our exposures based on current and projected market conditions and generally seek to acquire the inputs at as
close as possible to or below our planned cost.
We use derivatives to manage our exposure to changes in commodity prices. We do not perform the assessments required to achieve
hedge accounting for commodity derivative positions. Accordingly, the changes in the values of these derivatives are recorded in cost
of sales in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings.
Although we do not meet the criteria for cash flow hedge accounting, we believe that these instruments are effective in achieving our
objective of providing certainty in the future price of commodities purchased for use in our supply chain. Accordingly, for purposes of
measuring segment operating performance, these gains and losses are reported in unallocated corporate items outside of segment
operating results until such time that the exposure we are managing affects earnings. At that time, we reclassify the gain or loss from
unallocated corporate items to segment operating profit, allowing our operating segments to realize the economic effects of the
derivative without experiencing any resulting mark-to-market volatility, which remains in unallocated corporate items.
Unallocated corporate items for the quarters and nine-month periods ended February 22, 2026, and February 23, 2025, included:

As of February 22, 2026, the net notional value of commodity derivatives was $140.5 million, of which $82.1 million related to
energy inputs and $58.4 million related to agricultural inputs. These contracts relate to inputs that generally will be utilized within the
next 12 months.
We also have net investments in foreign subsidiaries that are denominated in euros. As of February 22, 2026, we hedged a portion of
these investments with €3,645.1 million of euro-denominated bonds.
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, we entered into a €750.0 million notional amount interest rate swap to convert our €750.0
million fixed-rate notes due April 17, 2032, to a floating rate.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2025, in advance of planned debt financing, we entered into $350.0 million of treasury locks. The
treasury locks were terminated during the second quarter of fiscal 2025, in conjunction with the Company’s issuance of $750.0 million
of fixed-rate notes due January 30, 2035. Upon termination, a gain of $0.1 million was recognized in AOCI and will be amortized
through interest expense over the respective term of the debt.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2025, we entered into a $750.0 million notional amount interest rate swap to convert our $750.0
million of fixed-rate notes due January 30, 2030, to a floating rate.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2025, our $500.0 million notional amount interest rate swap to convert our $500.0 million of fixed-
rate notes due November 18, 2025, to a floating rate was called by the counterparty prior to the maturity date. The previously existing
swap was designated as a fair value hedge, and concurrent with the swap being called, we ceased recording market value adjustments
to the associated hedged debt.
The fair values of the derivative positions used in our risk management activities and other assets recorded at fair value were not
material as of February 22, 2026, and were Level 1 or Level 2 assets and liabilities in the fair value hierarchy. We did not significantly

We offer certain suppliers access to third-party services that allow them to view our scheduled payments online. The third-party
services also allow suppliers to finance advances on our scheduled payments at the sole discretion of the supplier and the third party.
We have no economic interest in these financing arrangements and no direct relationship with the suppliers, the third parties, or any
financial institutions concerning these services, including not providing any form of guarantee and not pledging assets as security to
the third parties or financial institutions. All of our accounts payable remain as obligations to our suppliers as stated in our supplier
agreements. As of February 22, 2026, $1,380.5 million of our total accounts payable were payable to suppliers who utilize these third-
party services. As of May 25, 2025, $1,427.5 million of our total accounts payable were payable to suppliers who utilize these third-
party services.

Long-Term Debt
The fair values and carrying amounts of long-term debt, including the current portion, were $12,848.4 million and $13,130.4 million,
respectively, as of February 22, 2026. The fair value of long-term debt was estimated using market quotations and discounted cash
flows based on our current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of instruments. Long-term debt is a Level 2 liability in the
fair value hierarchy.
In the third quarter of fiscal 2026, we repaid €600.0 million of 0.45 percent fixed-rate notes due January 15, 2026, using proceeds
from the issuance of commercial paper and cash on hand.
In the second quarter of fiscal 2026, we repaid €500.0 million of 0.125 percent fixed-rate notes due November 15, 2025, with cash on
hand.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, we issued €750.0 million of 3.6 percent fixed-rate notes due April 17, 2032. We used the net
proceeds to repay $800.0 million of 4.0 percent fixed-rate notes due April 17, 2025, and a portion of our outstanding commercial
paper, as well as for general corporate purposes.
In the third quarter of fiscal 2025, we repaid $500.0 million of 5.241 percent fixed-rate notes due November 18, 2025, using proceeds
from the issuance of commercial paper.
In the second quarter of fiscal 2025, we issued $750.0 million of 4.875 percent fixed-rate notes due January 30, 2030. We used the net
proceeds to fund the Whitebridge Pet Brands acquisition.
In the second quarter of fiscal 2025, we issued $750.0 million of 5.25 percent fixed-rate notes due January 30, 2035. We used the net

Certain of our long-term debt agreements contain restrictive covenants. As of February 22, 2026, we were in compliance with all of
these covenants.
(8) Noncontrolling Interest
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, we purchased the outstanding General Mills Cereals, LLC (GMC) Class A limited
membership interests (GMC Class A Interests) from the third-party holder for $252.8 million. The GMC Class A Interests represented
our principal noncontrolling interest. The third-party holder of the GMC Class A Interests received quarterly preferred distributions
from available net income based on the application of a floating preferred return rate to the holder’s capital account balance
established in the most recent mark-to-market valuation. On June 1, 2024, the floating preferred return rate was reset to the sum of the
three-month Term SOFR plus 261 basis points.

We estimate the fair value of each option on the grant date using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which requires us to make
predictive assumptions regarding future stock price volatility, employee exercise behavior, dividend yield, and the forfeiture rate. We
estimate our future stock price volatility using the historical volatility over the expected term of the option, excluding time periods of
volatility we believe a marketplace participant would exclude in estimating our stock price volatility. We also have considered, but did
not use, implied volatility in our estimate, because trading activity in options on our stock, especially those with tenors of greater than
6 months, is insufficient to provide a reliable measure of expected volatility. Our method of selecting the other valuation assumptions
is explained in Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended May 25, 2025.
The estimated fair values of stock options granted and the assumptions used for the Black-Scholes option-pricing model were as

(15) Income Taxes
On July 4, 2025, legislation known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) was signed into law. The OBBBA makes changes to
the United States corporate income tax system, including, among other provisions, the immediate expensing of research and
development expenditures, and 100 percent bonus depreciation on qualified property. The impacts of the OBBBA are reflected in our
results for the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, and there was no material impact to our income tax expense. As of the
nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, we expect certain provisions of the OBBBA will change the timing of cash tax payments
in the current fiscal year and future periods.
In December 2021, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) established a framework, referred to as
Pillar 2, designed to ensure large multinational enterprises pay a minimum 15 percent level of tax on the income arising in each
jurisdiction in which they operate. Numerous countries have already enacted the OECD model rules effective for taxable years
beginning after December 31, 2023, which for us was fiscal 2025. There was no material impact on our consolidated financial
statements. Several other countries have enacted or drafted legislation that is not yet effective for us, and we do not expect this
legislation to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We will continue to monitor for new legislation and
guidance and evaluate potential impact on our consolidated financial statements.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2024, we received a notice of proposed adjustment from the Internal Revenue Service associated
with a capital loss from fiscal 2019. We believe that we have meritorious defenses against this assessment and will vigorously defend
our position. We do not expect the resolution of the proposed adjustment to have a material impact on our financial position or
liquidity.
(16) Business Segment and Geographic Information
We operate in the packaged foods industry. Our operating segments are as follows: North America Retail, International, North
America Pet, and North America Foodservice. 
Our North America Retail operating segment reflects business with a wide variety of grocery stores, mass merchandisers, membership
stores, natural food chains, drug, dollar and discount chains, convenience stores, and e-commerce grocery providers. Our product
categories in this business segment include ready-to-eat cereals, soup, meal kits, refrigerated and frozen dough products, dessert and
baking mixes, frozen pizza and pizza snacks, snack bars, fruit snacks, savory snacks, and a wide variety of organic products including
ready-to-eat cereal, frozen vegetables, meal kits, fruit snacks, and snack bars.
Our International operating segment consists of retail and foodservice businesses outside of the United States and Canada. Our product
categories include super-premium ice cream and frozen desserts, meal kits, salty snacks, snack bars, dessert and baking mixes, shelf-
stable vegetables, and pet food products. We also sell super-premium ice cream and frozen desserts directly to consumers through
owned retail shops. Our International segment also includes products manufactured in the United States for export, mainly to
Caribbean and Latin American markets, as well as products we manufacture for sale to our international joint ventures. Revenues from
export activities are reported in the region or country where the end customer is located.
Our North America Pet operating segment includes pet food products sold primarily in the United States and Canada in national pet
superstore chains, e-commerce retailers, grocery stores, regional pet store chains, mass merchandisers, and veterinary clinics and
hospitals. Our product categories include dog and cat food (dry foods, wet foods, fresh foods, and treats) made with whole meats,
fruits, vegetables, and other high-quality natural ingredients. Our tailored pet product offerings address specific dietary, lifestyle, and
20
life-stage needs and span different product types, diet types, breed sizes for dogs, life-stages, flavors, product functions, and textures
and cuts for wet and fresh foods.
Our North America Foodservice segment consists of foodservice businesses in the United States and Canada. Our major product
categories in our North America Foodservice operating segment are ready-to-eat cereals, snacks, frozen meals, unbaked and fully
baked frozen dough products, baking mixes, and bakery flour. Many products we sell are branded to the consumer and nearly all are
branded to our customers. We sell to distributors and operators in many customer channels including foodservice, vending, and
supermarket bakeries.
Our chief operating decision maker (CODM) is the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. The CODM predominantly
uses segment operating profit in the annual planning process which includes segment operating profit performance targets. The
CODM assesses progress against performance targets by comparing segment operating profit actual-to-plan variances on a monthly
basis. The performance assessment completed by the CODM is used to determine whether resource allocations require adjustment and
contributes to the determination of incentive compensation.
Operating profit for these segments excludes unallocated corporate items, gain or loss on divestitures, and restructuring,
transformation, impairment, and other exit costs. Results from certain businesses managed by our Strategic Growth Office are
included within corporate and other net sales and unallocated corporate items within operating profit. Unallocated corporate items also
include corporate overhead expenses, variances to planned North American employee benefits and incentives, certain charitable
contributions, restructuring initiative project-related costs, gains and losses on corporate investments, and other items that are not part
of our measurement of segment operating performance. These include gains and losses arising from the revaluation of certain grain
inventories and gains and losses from mark-to-market valuation of certain commodity positions until passed back to our operating
segments. These items affecting operating profit are centrally managed at the corporate level and are excluded from the measure of
segment profitability reviewed by executive management. Under our supply chain organization, our manufacturing, warehouse, and
distribution activities are substantially integrated across our operations in order to maximize efficiency and productivity. As a result,
fixed assets and depreciation and amortization expenses are neither maintained nor available by operating segment.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
INTRODUCTION
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) should be read in
conjunction with the MD&A included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 25, 2025, for important
background regarding, among other things, our key business drivers. Significant trademarks and service marks used in our business
are set forth in italics herein. Certain terms used throughout this report are defined in the “Glossary” section below.
Our key priorities in fiscal 2026 are to return North America Retail to volume growth, accelerate North America Pet growth with an
expanded portfolio, and drive efficiencies to reinvest in growth. We expect category growth to be below our long-term projections,
reflecting less benefit from net price realization and mix amid a continued challenging consumer backdrop. To strengthen our
categories and market share performance, we plan to increase investment in consumer value, product news, innovation, and brand
building, guided by our remarkable experience framework. This included a significant strategic investment to launch Blue Buffalo into
the fast-growing United States fresh pet food sub-category in calendar 2025. We expect the combination of these growth investments,
input cost inflation, and normalization of corporate incentive will outpace expected Holistic Margin Management cost savings of 5
percent of cost of goods sold, savings from our global transformation initiative, and benefits from a 53rd week in fiscal 2026. In
addition, we expect the net impact of the divestitures of our North American yogurt businesses and the Whitebridge Pet Brands
acquisition will reduce adjusted operating profit growth by approximately 5 points in fiscal 2026.
CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Third Quarter Results
In the third quarter of fiscal 2026, net sales decreased 8 percent, including the net impact of the divestitures of our North American
yogurt businesses (Divestitures) and the acquisition of Whitebridge Pet Brands (Acquisition). Organic net sales decreased 3 percent
compared to the same period last year. Operating profit decreased 41 percent to $525 million, primarily driven by higher input costs, a
decrease in contributions from volume growth, a gain on divestiture related to the sale of our Canada yogurt business recorded in the
third quarter of fiscal 2025, and higher restructuring and transformation costs, partially offset by favorable net price realization and
mix and higher transaction costs recorded in fiscal 2025 related to the Divestitures and Acquisition. Operating profit margin of 11.8
percent decreased 660 basis points. Adjusted operating profit of $547 million decreased 32 percent on a constant-currency basis,
including the net impact of the Divestitures and Acquisition, primarily driven by higher input costs and a decrease in contributions
from volume growth, partially offset by favorable net price realization and mix. Adjusted operating profit margin decreased 420 basis
points to 12.3 percent. Diluted earnings per share of $0.56 decreased 50 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2026. Adjusted diluted
earnings per share of $0.64 decreased 37 percent on a constant-currency basis compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2025. See the
“Non-GAAP Measures” section below for a description of our use of measures not defined by GAAP.

contributions from volume growth, partially offset by favorable net price realization and mix and favorable foreign currency exchange
impacts, and includes the net impact of the Divestitures and Acquisition.

(a)Measured in tons based on the stated weight of our product shipments.
Organic net sales decreased 3 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to the same period in fiscal 2025, driven by a
decrease in contributions from organic volume growth and unfavorable organic net price realization and mix.
Cost of sales decreased $133 million to $3,070 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to the same period in fiscal 2025.
The decrease was primarily driven by a $349 million decrease attributable to lower volume, partially offset by a $202 million increase
attributable to product rate and mix, both of which include the net impact of the Divestitures and Acquisition. We recorded $8 million
of restructuring charges in cost of sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 (please refer to Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report). In addition, we recorded a $17 million net decrease in cost of sales related to the mark-to-
market valuation of certain commodity positions and grain inventories in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to a $23 million
net decrease in the third quarter of fiscal 2025.
Selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased $32 million to $813 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2026,
compared to the same period in fiscal 2025, primarily driven by lower other administrative costs, and including the net impact of the
Divestitures and Acquisition. SG&A expenses as a percent of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 increased 90 basis points
compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2025.
Divestitures loss (gain), net decreased $101 million, primarily due to a $96 million gain in the third quarter of fiscal 2025, related to
the sale of our Canada yogurt business (please refer to Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item I of this report).
Restructuring, transformation, impairment, and other exit costs (recoveries) totaled $24 million in the third quarter of fiscal
2026, compared to $1 million of net recoveries in the same period last year. In fiscal 2026, we approved a multi-year organizational
initiative to increase the competitiveness of our supply chain, and as a result, we recorded $17 million of charges in the third quarter of
fiscal 2026. In addition, we recorded $8 million of restructuring and transformation charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 related
to actions previously announced (please refer to Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report).
Benefit plan non-service income totaled $15 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $14 million in the same period
last year, primarily driven by lower interest costs partially offset by lower expected return on plan assets.
Interest, net for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 totaled $128 million, down $8 million from the third quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily
driven by lower average long-term debt levels.
25
The effective tax rate for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 was 24.3 percent compared to 19.8 percent for the third quarter of fiscal
2025. The 4.5 percentage point increase was primarily due to certain nonrecurring discrete tax benefits in fiscal 2025 and unfavorable
earnings mix by jurisdiction in fiscal 2026. Our effective tax rate excluding certain items affecting comparability was 24.0 percent in
the third quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to 21.0 percent in the same period last year (see the “Non-GAAP Measures” section below
for a description of our use of measures not defined by GAAP). The 3.0 percentage point increase was primarily due to certain
nonrecurring discrete tax benefits in fiscal 2025 and unfavorable earnings mix by jurisdiction in fiscal 2026.
The impacts of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) are reflected in our results for the quarter ended February 22, 2026, and there
was no material impact to our income tax expense. We expect certain provisions of the OBBBA will change the timing of cash tax
payments in the current fiscal year and future periods. Please refer to Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item
1 of this report for additional information.
After-tax (loss) earnings from joint ventures for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 was a $6 million after-tax loss compared to after-tax
earnings of $14 million in the same period in fiscal 2025, primarily driven by our share of transaction costs related to certain assets
held for sale at Cereal Partners Worldwide (CPW). On a constant-currency basis, after-tax loss from joint ventures decreased 129
percent (see the “Non-GAAP Measures” section below for a description of our use of measures not defined by GAAP).

Nine-Month Results
In the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, net sales decreased 7 percent, including the net impact of the Divestitures and
Acquisition. Organic net sales decreased 3 percent compared to the same period last year. Operating profit increased 6 percent to
$2,978 million, primarily driven by a divestiture gain related to the sale of our United States yogurt business, favorable net price
realization and mix, and lower SG&A expenses, partially offset by a decrease in contributions from volume growth, higher input costs,
and higher restructuring, transformation, and impairment charges. Operating profit margin of 21.6 percent increased 280 basis points
compared to the same period last year. Adjusted operating profit of $2,106 million decreased 23 percent on a constant-currency basis,
including the net impact of the Divestitures and Acquisition, primarily driven by a decrease in contributions from volume growth and
higher input costs, partially offset by favorable net price realization and mix and lower SG&A expenses. Adjusted operating profit
margin decreased 310 basis points to 15.2 percent. Diluted earnings per share of $3.56 in the nine-month period ended February 22,
2026, essentially matched the same period last year and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $2.60 decreased 25 percent on a
constant-currency basis compared to the same period last year (see the “Non-GAAP Measures” section below for a description of our

Organic net sales decreased 3 percent in the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, driven by unfavorable organic net price
realization and mix and a decrease in contributions from organic volume growth.
Cost of sales decreased $449 million to $9,223 million in the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, compared to the same
period in fiscal 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by an $889 million decrease attributable to lower volume, partially offset by a
$417 million increase attributable to product rate and mix, both of which include the net impact of the Divestitures and Acquisition.
We recorded $13 million of restructuring charges in the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, compared to $1 million of
restructuring charges in cost of sales in the same period last year (please refer to Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in
Part I, Item 1 of this report). In addition, we recorded a $13 million net decrease in cost of sales related to the mark-to-market
valuation of certain commodity positions and grain inventories in the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, compared to a $24
million net decrease in the nine-month period ended February 23, 2025.
SG&A expenses decreased $51 million to $2,500 million in the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, compared to the same
period in fiscal 2025, primarily driven by lower other administrative costs, and including the net impact of the Divestitures and
27
Acquisition. SG&A expenses as a percent of net sales increased 100 basis points in the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026,
compared to the same period of fiscal 2025.
Divestitures loss (gain), net totaled a $1,049 million gain in the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, primarily related to the
sale of our United States yogurt business. During the nine-month period ended February 23, 2025, we recorded a $96 million
divestiture gain related to the sale of our Canada yogurt business (please refer to Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in
Part I, Item 1 of this report).
Restructuring, transformation, impairment, and other exit costs (recoveries) totaled $163 million in the nine-month period ended
February 22, 2026, compared to $3 million in the same period last year. In fiscal 2026, we approved a multi-year organizational
initiative to increase the competitiveness of our supply chain, and as a result, we recorded $64 million of charges in fiscal 2026. We
also recorded a $53 million non-cash impairment charge related to our Uncle Toby’s brand intangible asset in fiscal 2026.  In addition,
we recorded $46 million of restructuring and transformation charges in the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, related to
actions previously announced (please refer to Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report).
Benefit plan non-service income totaled $46 million in the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, compared to $42 million in
the same period last year, primarily driven by lower interest costs partially offset by lower expected return on plan assets.
Interest, net for the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, increased $3 million to $387 million compared to the same period of
fiscal 2025, primarily driven by higher average long-term debt levels.
The effective tax rate for the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, was 24.8 percent compared to 20.5 percent in the same
period last year. The 4.3 percentage point increase was primarily due to certain unfavorable tax components related to the sale of our
United States yogurt business, certain nonrecurring discrete tax benefits in fiscal 2025, and unfavorable earnings mix by jurisdiction in
fiscal 2026. Our effective tax rate excluding certain items affecting comparability was 23.8 percent in the nine-month period ended
February 22, 2026, compared to 20.9 percent in the same period last year (see the “Non-GAAP Measures” section below for a
description of our use of measures not defined by GAAP). The 2.9 percentage point increase is primarily due to certain nonrecurring
discrete tax benefits in fiscal 2025 and unfavorable earnings mix by jurisdiction in fiscal 2026.
The impacts of the OBBBA are reflected in our results for the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, and there was no material
impact to our income tax expense. We expect certain provisions of the OBBBA will change the timing of cash tax payments in the
current fiscal year and future periods. Please refer to Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report
for additional information.
After-tax (loss) earnings from joint ventures for the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, was a $59 million after-tax loss
compared to after-tax earnings of $64 million in the same period in fiscal 2025, primarily driven by our $85 million pre-tax share of a
non-cash goodwill impairment charge at CPW in fiscal 2026, as a result of downward revisions of future sales and profitability
estimates in the Australian market.  On a constant-currency basis, after-tax loss from joint ventures decreased 191 percent (see the
“Non-GAAP Measures” section below for a description of our use of measures not defined by GAAP).

UNALLOCATED CORPORATE ITEMS
Unallocated corporate expenses totaled $75 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $56 million in the same period in
fiscal 2025. We recorded $8 million of restructuring charges in cost of sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2026. In the third quarter of
fiscal 2026, we recorded a $17 million net decrease in expense related to the mark-to-market valuation of certain commodity positions
32
and grain inventories, compared to a $23 million net decrease in expense in the same period last year. Certain compensation and
benefit related expenses increased in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to the same period of last year. We recorded $2 million
of transaction costs primarily related to the Divestitures in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $24 million of transaction costs
related to the Divestitures in the same period last year. In addition, we recorded $3 million of net gains related to valuation
adjustments on certain corporate investments in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $2 million of net losses in the third
quarter of fiscal 2025. We recorded $2 million of integration costs in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to $3 million of
integration costs during the same period last year, related to the Acquisition and the fiscal 2024 acquisition of a pet food business in

the same period in fiscal 2025. We recorded $13 million of restructuring charges in cost of sales in the nine-month period ended
February 22, 2026, compared to $1 million of restructuring charges in cost of sales in the same period in fiscal 2025. In the nine-

Certain compensation and benefit related expenses increased in the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, compared to the same
period of fiscal 2025. We recorded $17 million of transaction costs primarily related to the Divestitures in the nine-month period
ended February 22, 2026, compared to $33 million of transaction costs related to the Divestitures and the Acquisition in the same

adjustments on certain corporate investments, compared to $5 million of net losses related to valuation adjustments of certain
corporate investments in the same period in fiscal 2025.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, cash provided by operations was $1,614 million compared to $2,307 million
in the same period last year. The $692 million decrease was primarily driven by a $1,047 million decrease in net earnings excluding
the pretax gain on the Divestitures, which includes the related net impact of the Divestitures and Acquisition. This was partially offset
by a $153 million change in deferred income taxes, primarily driven by a change in the timing of cash tax payments due to certain
provisions of the OBBBA, a $123 million change in after-tax loss (earnings) from joint ventures, including a non-cash impairment
charge to goodwill at CPW in fiscal 2026, and a $113 million change in restructuring, transformation, impairment, and other exit costs
(recoveries), including the non-cash impairment charge to our Uncle Toby's brand intangible asset in fiscal 2026.
Cash provided by investing activities during the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, was $1,433 million compared to cash
used by investing activities of $1,579 million for the same period in fiscal 2025. In the first quarter of fiscal 2026, we completed the
sale of our United States yogurt business for $1,798 million cash. We also received an additional $6 million of cash related to a sale
price adjustment related to the sale of our Canada yogurt business in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. In the third quarter of fiscal 2025,
we completed the sale of our Canada yogurt business for $242 million cash. During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, we acquired
Whitebridge Pet Brands for $1,410 million cash, net of cash acquired. In addition, we spent $356 million on purchases of land,
buildings, and equipment in the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, compared to $405 million in the same period last year.
Cash used by financing activities during the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, was $2,644 million compared to $610
million in the same period in fiscal 2025. We had $1,119 million of net debt payments in the nine-month period ended February 22,
2026, compared to $1,397 million of net debt issuances in the same period a year ago. In addition, we paid $500 million for purchases
of common stock for treasury in the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, compared to $902 million in the same period in
fiscal 2025. We paid $987 million of dividends in the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, compared to $1,008 million in the
same period last year.
As of February 22, 2026, we had $698 million of cash and cash equivalents in foreign jurisdictions. In anticipation of repatriating
funds from foreign jurisdictions, we record local country withholding taxes on our international earnings, as applicable. We may
repatriate our cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries without such funds being subject to further U.S. income tax
liability. Earnings prior to fiscal 2018 from our foreign subsidiaries remain permanently reinvested in those jurisdictions.

Certain of our long-term debt agreements and our credit facilities contain restrictive covenants. As of February 22, 2026, we were in
compliance with all of these covenants.
We have $2,138 million of long-term debt maturing in the next 12 months that is classified as current, including €250 million of
floating-rate notes due April 22, 2026, €500 million of floating-rate notes redeemable April 22, 2026, $500 million of 4.7 percent
fixed-rate notes due January 30, 2027, and $750 million of 3.2 percent fixed-rate notes due February 10, 2027. We believe that cash
flows from operations, together with available short- and long-term debt financing, will be adequate to meet our liquidity and capital
needs for at least the next 12 months.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 25, 2025. The accounting policies used in preparing our interim fiscal 2026 Consolidated
Financial Statements are the same as those described in our Form 10-K. Please refer to Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional information.
Our critical accounting estimates are those that have meaningful impact on the reporting of our financial condition and results of
operations. These estimates include our accounting for revenue recognition, valuation of long-lived assets, intangible assets, income
taxes, and defined benefit pension, other postretirement benefit, and postemployment benefit plans. The assumptions and
methodologies used in the determination of those estimates as of February 22, 2026, are the same as those described in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 25, 2025.
Our annual goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment test was performed on the first day of the second quarter of
fiscal 2026. As a result of lower future sales and profitability projections for the business supporting our Uncle Toby’s brand
intangible asset, we determined that the fair value of the brand intangible asset was less than its book value and recorded a $53 million
non-cash impairment charge. We recorded the impairment charge in restructuring, transformation, impairment, and other exit costs in
our Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Our estimate of the fair value was determined based on a discounted cash flow model using
inputs which included our long-range cash flow projections for the business, the royalty rate, the weighted-average cost of capital rate,
and the tax rate. The fair value is a Level 3 asset in the fair value hierarchy.
All other intangible asset fair values were substantially in excess of the carrying values. In addition, while having significant coverage
as of our fiscal 2026 assessment date, the Progresso, Nudges, True Chews, and Kitano brand intangible assets had risk of decreasing
coverage. We will continue to monitor these businesses for potential impairment.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In September 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2025-06,
amending the accounting for costs related to internal-use software. The ASU removes reference to software development project
stages. Additionally, the ASU requires capitalization of software costs to begin when management has authorized and committed to
funding the software and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function
intended. The requirements of the new standard are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim
periods within those annual periods, which for us is the first quarter of fiscal 2029. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments
may be applied on a prospective, retrospective, or modified basis. We are in the process of analyzing the impact on our results of
operations and financial position.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 requiring additional income statement disclosures. The ASU requires the
disaggregation of specific categories of expenses underlying the line items presented on the income statement. Additionally, the ASU
requires enhanced disclosure of selling expenses. The requirements of the ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after
December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. For us, annual reporting requirements
will be effective for fiscal 2028 and interim reporting requirements will be effective beginning with our first quarter of fiscal 2029.
Early adoption is permitted and the amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted. We
are in the process of analyzing the impact of the ASU on our related disclosures. 
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 requiring enhanced income tax disclosures. The ASU requires disclosure of
specific categories and disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation table. The ASU also requires disclosure of
disaggregated information related to income taxes paid, income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or
benefit, and income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations. The requirements of the ASU are effective for annual periods
beginning after December 15, 2024, which for us is fiscal 2026. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments should be applied on
a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted. We are in the process of analyzing the impact of the ASU on our related
disclosures.

NON-GAAP MEASURES
We have included in this report measures of financial performance that are not defined by GAAP. We believe that these measures
provide useful information to investors, and include these measures in other communications to investors.
For each of these non-GAAP financial measures, we are providing below a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP
measure and the most directly comparable GAAP measure, an explanation of why we believe the non-GAAP measure provides useful
information to investors, and any additional material purposes for which our management or Board of Directors uses the non-GAAP
measure. These non-GAAP measures should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of, the comparable GAAP measure.
Significant Items Impacting Comparability
Several measures below are presented on an adjusted basis. The adjustments are either items resulting from infrequently occurring
events or items that, in management’s judgment, significantly affect the year-to-year assessment of operating results.
The following are descriptions of significant items impacting comparability of our results.
Divestitures loss (gain), net
Net divestitures gain primarily related to the sale of our United States yogurt business in fiscal 2026 and Canada yogurt business in
fiscal 2025. Please refer to Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report.
CPW asset impairments and transaction costs
CPW non-cash goodwill impairment charge related to the Australian market, and other asset impairment charges and transaction costs
related to certain assets held for sale recorded in fiscal 2026.
Restructuring and transformation charges (recoveries)
Restructuring and transformation charges related to supply chain actions and previously announced actions recorded in fiscal 2026.
Restructuring charges (recoveries) related to previously announced restructuring actions recorded in fiscal 2025. Please refer to Note 3
to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report.
Other intangible assets impairment
Non-cash impairment charge related to our Uncle Toby’s brand intangible asset in fiscal 2026. Please refer to Note 4 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report.
Transaction costs
Fiscal 2026 transaction costs primarily related to the sale of our United States yogurt business. Fiscal 2025 transaction costs related to
the Whitebridge Pet Brands acquisition and the sale of our North American yogurt businesses. Please refer to Note 2 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report.
Mark-to-market effects
Net mark-to-market valuation of certain commodity positions recognized in unallocated corporate items. Please refer to Note 6 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report.
Investment activity, net
Valuation adjustments of certain corporate investments in fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025.
Acquisition integration costs
Integration costs related to the Whitebridge Pet Brands acquisition in fiscal 2025 and the acquisition of a pet food business in Europe
in fiscal 2024 recorded in fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025. Please refer to Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1
of this report.
Project-related costs
Restructuring initiative project-related costs related to previously announced restructuring actions recorded in fiscal 2025.
Organic Net Sales Growth Rates
We provide organic net sales growth rates for our consolidated net sales and segment net sales. This measure is used in reporting to
our Board of Directors and executive management and as a component of the measurement of our performance for incentive
compensation purposes. We believe that organic net sales growth rates provide useful information to investors because they provide
transparency to underlying performance in our net sales by excluding the effect that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations,
acquisitions, divestitures, and a 53rd week, when applicable, have on year-to-year comparability. A reconciliation of these measures to
reported net sales growth rates, the relevant GAAP measures, are included in our Consolidated Results of Operations and Results of
Segment Operations discussions in the MD&A above.

Adjusted Operating Profit and Related Constant-currency Growth Rate
This measure is used in reporting to our Board of Directors and executive management and as a component of the measurement of our
performance for incentive compensation purposes. We believe that this measure provides useful information to investors because it is
the operating profit measure we use to evaluate operating profit performance on a comparable year-to-year basis. Additionally, the
measure is evaluated on a constant-currency basis by excluding the effect that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations have on
year-to-year comparability given the volatility in foreign currency exchange markets.
Our adjusted operating profit growth on a constant-currency basis is calculated as follows:

Glossary
AOCI. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
Adjusted diluted EPS. Diluted EPS adjusted for certain items affecting year-to-year comparability.
Adjusted operating profit. Operating profit adjusted for certain items affecting year-to-year comparability.
Adjusted operating profit margin. Operating profit adjusted for certain items affecting year-over-year comparability, divided by net
sales.
Constant currency. Financial results translated to United States dollars using constant foreign currency exchange rates based on the
rates in effect for the comparable prior-year period. To present this information, current period results for entities reporting in
currencies other than United States dollars are translated into United States dollars at the average exchange rates in effect during the
corresponding period of the prior fiscal year, rather than the actual average exchange rates in effect during the current fiscal year.
Therefore, the foreign currency impact is equal to current year results in local currencies multiplied by the change in the average
foreign currency exchange rate between the current fiscal period and the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.
Derivatives. Financial instruments such as futures, swaps, options, and forward contracts that we use to manage our risk arising from
changes in commodity prices, interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and stock prices.
Fair value hierarchy. For purposes of fair value measurement, we categorize assets and liabilities into one of three levels based on
the assumptions (inputs) used in valuing the asset or liability. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, while Level 3
generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1:Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in
active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets.
Level 3:Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.
Free cash flow. Net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of land, buildings, and equipment.
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Guidelines, procedures, and practices that we are required to use in recording
and reporting accounting information in our financial statements.
Goodwill. The difference between the purchase price of acquired companies plus the fair value of any noncontrolling interests and the
related fair values of net assets acquired. 
Gross margin. Net sales less cost of sales.
Hedge accounting. Accounting for qualifying hedges that allows changes in a hedging instrument’s fair value to offset corresponding
changes in the hedged item in the same reporting period. Hedge accounting is permitted for certain hedging instruments and hedged
items only if the hedging relationship is highly effective, and only prospectively from the date a hedging relationship is formally
documented.
Holistic Margin Management (HMM). Company-wide initiative to use productivity savings, mix management, and price realization
to offset input cost inflation, protect margins, and generate funds to reinvest in sales-generating activities.
Mark-to-market. The act of determining a value for financial instruments, commodity contracts, and related assets or liabilities based
on the current market price for that item.
Net mark-to-market valuation of certain commodity positions. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivative contracts
that will be allocated to segment operating profit when the exposure we are hedging affects earnings.
Net price realization. The impact of list and promoted price changes, net of trade and other price promotion costs.
Noncontrolling interests. Interests of subsidiaries held by third parties.
Notional amount. The amount of a position or an agreed upon amount in a derivative contract on which the value of financial
instruments are calculated.
OCI. Other Comprehensive Income (Loss).
40
Organic net sales growth. Net sales growth adjusted for foreign currency translation, acquisitions, divestitures and a 53rd fiscal week,
when applicable.
Project-related costs. Costs incurred related to our restructuring initiatives not included in restructuring charges.
Reporting unit. An operating segment or a business one level below an operating segment.
SOFR. Secured Overnight Financing Rate.
Strategic Revenue Management (SRM). A company-wide capability focused on generating sustainable benefits from net price
realization and mix by identifying and executing against specific opportunities to apply tools including pricing, sizing, mix
management, and promotion optimization across each of our businesses.
Supply chain input costs. Costs incurred to produce and deliver product, including costs for ingredients and conversion, inventory
management, logistics, and warehousing.
Translation adjustments. The impact of the conversion of our foreign affiliates’ financial statements to United States dollars for the
purpose of consolidating our financial statements.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT RELEVANT TO FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION FOR THE PURPOSE OF “SAFE
HARBOR” PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
This report contains or incorporates by reference forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995 that are based on our current expectations and assumptions. We also may make written or oral forward-looking
statements, including statements contained in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in our reports to
stockholders.
The words or phrases “will likely result,” “are expected to,” “may continue,” “is anticipated,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” or similar
expressions identify “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such
statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results and
those currently anticipated or projected. We caution you not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements.
In connection with the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we are identifying important
factors that could affect our financial performance and could cause our actual results in future periods to differ materially from any
current opinions or statements.
Our future results could be affected by a variety of factors, such as: imposed and threatened tariffs by the United States and its trading
partners; disruptions or inefficiencies in the supply chain; competitive dynamics in the consumer foods industry and the markets for
our products, including new product introductions, advertising activities, pricing actions, and promotional activities of our
competitors; economic conditions, including changes in inflation rates, interest rates, tax rates, tariffs, or the availability of capital;
product development and innovation; consumer acceptance of new products and product improvements; consumer reaction to pricing
actions and changes in promotion levels; acquisitions or dispositions of businesses or assets; changes in capital structure; changes in
the legal and regulatory environment, including tax legislation, labeling and advertising regulations, and litigation; impairments in the
carrying value of goodwill, other intangible assets, or other long-lived assets, or changes in the useful lives of other intangible assets;
changes in accounting standards and the impact of critical accounting estimates; product quality and safety issues, including recalls
and product liability; changes in consumer demand for our products; effectiveness of advertising, marketing, and promotional
programs; changes in consumer behavior, trends, and preferences, including weight loss trends; consumer perception of health-related
issues, including obesity; consolidation in the retail environment; changes in purchasing and inventory levels of significant customers;
fluctuations in the cost and availability of supply chain resources, including raw materials, packaging, energy, and transportation;
effectiveness of restructuring, transformation, and cost saving initiatives; volatility in the market value of derivatives used to manage
price risk for certain commodities; benefit plan expenses due to changes in plan asset values and discount rates used to determine plan
liabilities; failure or breach of our information technology systems; foreign economic conditions, including currency rate fluctuations
and tariffs; and political unrest in foreign markets and economic uncertainty due to terrorism or war.
You should also consider the risk factors that we identify in Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended May 25, 2025, which could also affect our future results.
We undertake no obligation to publicly revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of those
statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.
Item 3.      Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
The estimated maximum potential value-at-risk arising from a one-day loss in fair value for our interest rate, foreign exchange,

summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and (2)
accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in a manner
that allows timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934) during the quarter ended February 22, 2026, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
