FY 2024 Financial Summary

•Net Sales decreased 3.0 percent versus the year-ago period to $25.8 billion, including an unfavorable 0.7 percentage point impact from foreign currency, and a negative 0.2 percentage point impact from divestitures. Organic Net Sales(1) decreased 2.1 percent versus the prior year period. Price increased 1.4 percentage points versus the prior year period, with increases in the North America and Emerging Markets segments, while International Developed Markets was flat. Favorable price was primarily due to pricing taken in certain categories to mitigate higher input costs. Volume/mix declined 3.5 percentage points versus the prior year period, with declines in North America and International Developed Markets, partially offset by volume/mix growth in Emerging Markets. Unfavorable volume/mix was primarily driven by continued shifts in consumer behavior due to economic uncertainty and a decline in Lunchables.

•Operating income/(loss) decreased 63.2 percent versus the year-ago period to $1.7 billion as a result of non-cash impairment losses that were $3.0 billion higher in the current year period. The remaining change to operating income/(loss) was an increase of $118 million due to factors noted in Adjusted Operating Income. Adjusted Operating Income(1) increased 1.2 percent versus the year-ago period to $5.4 billion, primarily driven by higher pricing, lower variable compensation expense, and the beneficial impact from our efficiency initiatives, primarily in procurement and logistics. These factors more than offset unfavorable volume/mix, increased manufacturing expenses due, in part, to increased labor costs, increased SG&A due to investments in technology, and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency (0.4 pp).

•Diluted EPS was $2.26, down 2.2 percent versus the prior year period, primarily driven by higher non-cash impairment losses in the current year period. This more than offset a favorable impact from the tax rate in the current period, driven by the recognition of a $3.0 billion non-U.S. deferred tax asset and associated valuation allowance of $0.6 billion related to the transfer of certain business operations to a wholly-owned subsidiary in the Netherlands. Adjusted EPS(1) was $3.06, up 2.7 percent versus the prior year period, primarily driven by higher Adjusted Operating Income, fewer shares outstanding, and favorable changes in other expense/(income), which more than offset higher taxes on adjusted earnings.

•Net cash provided by/(used for) operating activities was $4.2 billion, up 5.2 percent versus the year-ago period. The increase was primarily due to lapping the prior year cash payments associated with the settlement of the consolidated securities class action lawsuit and the current year conversion of certain assets related to the U.S. postretirement medical plan to cash, which were partially offset by higher cash outflows for variable compensation in the 2024 period compared to the 2023 period and increased cash taxes. Free Cash Flow(1) was $3.2 billion, up 6.6 percent versus the prior year period driven by the same net cash provided by/(used for) operating activities discussed above.

•Capital Return: In fiscal year 2024, the Company paid $1.9 billion in cash dividends and repurchased $988 million of common stock. Of the $988 million in share repurchases in 2024, $800 million were repurchased under the Company’s publicly announced share repurchase program and $188 million were purchased to offset the dilutive effect of equity-based compensation. As of Dec. 29, 2024, the Company had remaining authorization to repurchase approximately $1.9 billion of common stock under the publicly announced share repurchase program.

Q4 2024 Financial Summary

•Net sales decreased 4.1 percent versus the year-ago period to $6.6 billion, including a negative 0.8 percentage point impact from foreign currency, and a negative 0.2 percentage point impact from divestitures. Organic Net Sales(1) decreased 3.1 percent versus the prior year period. Price increased 1.0 percentage points versus the prior year period, driven by increases in the North America and Emerging Markets segments, with flat pricing in International Developed Markets. Favorable price was primarily due to pricing taken in certain categories to mitigate higher input costs. Volume/mix declined 4.1 percentage points versus the prior year period, with declines in each reportable segment. Unfavorable volume/mix was primarily driven by continued shifts in consumer behavior due to economic uncertainty and a decline in U.S. Away From Home.

•Operating Income decreased 103.1 percent versus the year-ago period to $(40) million as a result of non-cash impairment losses of $1.4 billion in the current year period. This impairment charge was largely due to an intangible asset impairment on the Oscar Mayer brand. The remaining change to operating income/(loss) was an increase of $47 million driven by higher unrealized losses on commodity hedges in the prior year. Adjusted Operating Income(1) decreased 0.3 percent versus the year-ago period to $1.4 billion, primarily driven by unfavorable volume/mix, increased expenses in procurement and manufacturing due, in part, to increased labor costs, and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency (0.2 pp). These factors were partially offset by lower variable compensation expense, higher pricing, and the beneficial impact from our efficiency initiatives, primarily in procurement.

•Diluted EPS was $1.76, up 188.5 percent versus the prior year period, primarily driven by the recognition of a $3.0 billion non-U.S. deferred tax asset and associated valuation allowance of $0.6 billion related to the transfer of certain business operations to a wholly-owned subsidiary in the Netherlands. Adjusted EPS(1) was $0.84, up 7.7 percent versus the prior year period, primarily driven by lower taxes on adjusted earnings and fewer shares outstanding.

Outlook

For fiscal year 2025, the Company expects:

•Organic Net Sales(1)(2) flat to down 2.5 percent versus the prior year. The Company expects sequential improvement in Organic Net Sales throughout each quarter in 2025, with a flat to slightly positive contribution from price throughout the year.

•Constant Currency Adjusted Operating Income(1)(2) down 1 percent to down 4 percent versus the prior year. This includes the impact of lapping lower variable compensation in 2024, which is an approximate 210 basis point headwind. This also contemplates an Adjusted Gross Profit Margin(1)(2) that is expected to be flat to slightly expand versus the prior year.

•Adjusted EPS(1)(2) in the range of $2.63 to $2.74. The Company expects an effective tax rate on Adjusted EPS to be approximately 26 percent, which reflects an approximate $0.23 cent headwind year-over-year. This increase in the effective tax rate is primarily driven by the impact of several countries enacting the global minimum tax regulations, partially offset by the annual benefit related to the transfer of certain business operations completed in the fourth quarter of 2024. Additionally, the Company expects interest expense to be approximately $900 million and other expense/(income) to be approximately ($140) million for the full year. This guidance does not reflect any impact from future potential share repurchases.

•Free Cash Flow(1)(2) flat versus the prior year, with Free Cash Flow Conversion(1)(2) of approximately 95 percent. This is driven by working capital efficiencies and lower cash outflows for variable compensation, partially offset by a higher cash tax primarily driven by the impact of several countries enacting the global minimum tax regulations.

End Notes

(1)Organic Net Sales, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Operating Income, Constant Currency Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EPS, Free Cash Flow, Free Cash Flow Conversion, and Net Leverage are non-GAAP financial measures. Please see discussion of non-GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations at the end of this press release for more information.

(2)Guidance for Organic Net Sales, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Constant Currency Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted EPS, Free Cash Flow, and Free Cash Flow Conversion is provided on a non-GAAP basis only because certain information necessary to calculate the most comparable GAAP measure is unavailable due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty of predicting the occurrence and the future financial statement impact of such items impacting comparability, including, but not limited to, the impact of currency, acquisitions and divestitures, divestiture-related license income, restructuring activities, deal costs, unrealized losses/(gains) on commodity hedges, impairment losses, certain non-ordinary course legal and regulatory matters, equity award compensation expense, nonmonetary currency devaluation, and debt prepayment and extinguishment (benefit)/costs, among other items. Therefore, as a result of the uncertainty and variability of the nature and amount of future adjustments, which could be significant, the Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of these measures without unreasonable effort.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The non-GAAP financial measures provided in this press release should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, results prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

To supplement the financial information provided, the Company has presented Organic Net Sales, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Operating Income, Constant Currency Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income/(Loss), Adjusted EPS, Free Cash Flow, and Net Leverage which are considered non-GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures presented may differ from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies, and other companies may not define these non-GAAP financial measures in the same way. These measures are not substitutes for their comparable GAAP financial measures, such as net sales, net income/(loss), gross profit, diluted earnings per share (“EPS”), net cash provided by/(used for) operating activities, or other measures prescribed by GAAP, and there are limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to assist in comparing the Company’s performance on a consistent basis for purposes of business decision making by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect the Company’s underlying operations. The Company believes:

•Organic Net Sales, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Operating Income, Constant Currency Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income/(Loss), and Adjusted EPS provide important comparability of underlying operating results, allowing investors and management to assess the Company’s operating performance on a consistent basis; and

•Free Cash Flow and Net Leverage provide a measure of the Company’s core operating performance, the cash-generating capabilities of the Company’s business operations, and are factors used in determining the Company’s borrowing capacity and the amount of cash available for debt repayments, dividends, acquisitions, share repurchases, and other corporate purposes.

Management believes that presenting the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because it (i) provides investors with meaningful supplemental information regarding financial performance by excluding certain items, (ii) permits investors to view performance using the same tools that management uses to budget, make operating and strategic decisions, and evaluate historical performance, and (iii) otherwise provides supplemental information that may be useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s results. The Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations to those measures, provides investors with additional understanding of the factors and trends affecting the Company’s business than could be obtained absent these disclosures.

Definitions

Organic Net Sales is defined as net sales excluding, when they occur, the impact of currency, acquisitions and divestitures, and a 53rd week of shipments. The Company calculates the impact of currency on net sales by holding exchange rates constant at the previous year's exchange rate, with the exception of highly inflationary subsidiaries, for which the Company calculates the previous year's results using the current year's exchange rate.

Adjusted Operating Income is defined as operating income/(loss) excluding, when they occur, the impacts of restructuring activities, deal costs, unrealized gains/(losses) on commodity hedges (the unrealized gains and losses are recorded in general corporate expenses until realized; once realized, the gains and losses are recorded in the applicable segment’s operating results), impairment losses, and certain non-ordinary course legal and regulatory matters. The Company also presents Adjusted Operating Income on a constant currency basis (Constant Currency Adjusted Operating Income). The Company calculates the impact of currency on Adjusted Operating Income by holding exchange rates constant at the previous year's exchange rate, with the exception of highly inflationary subsidiaries, for which it calculates the previous year's results using the current year's exchange rate.

Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Net Income/(Loss), and Adjusted EPS are defined as gross profit, net income/(loss), and diluted earnings per share, respectively, excluding, when they occur, the impacts of restructuring activities, deal costs, unrealized losses/(gains) on commodity hedges, impairment losses, certain non-ordinary course legal and regulatory matters, losses/(gains) on the sale of a business, other losses/(gains) related to acquisitions and divestitures (e.g., tax and hedging impacts), nonmonetary currency devaluation (e.g., remeasurement gains and losses), debt prepayment and extinguishment (benefit)/costs, and certain significant discrete income tax items, and including when they occur, adjustments to reflect preferred stock dividend payments on an accrual basis. Adjusted Gross Profit Margin is defined as Adjusted Gross Profit divided by net sales.

Net Leverage is defined as debt less cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments divided by Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income/(loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, other expense/(income), provision for/(benefit from) income taxes, and depreciation and amortization (excluding restructuring activities); in addition to these adjustments, the Company excludes, when they occur, the impacts of divestiture-related license income, restructuring activities, deal costs, unrealized losses/(gains) on commodity hedges, impairment losses, certain non-ordinary course legal and regulatory matters, and equity award compensation expense (excluding restructuring activities).

Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by/(used for) operating activities less capital expenditures. The use of this non-GAAP measure does not imply or represent the residual cash flow for discretionary expenditures since the Company has certain non-discretionary obligations such as debt service that are not deducted from the measure.
