In its third quarter earnings report for fiscal 2025, Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc. announced a strategic shift with the divestiture of Mann Packing and the exit from underperforming banana farms. The company reported a slight increase in net sales, driven by higher per-unit selling prices in its banana segment, despite challenges in other areas.
Key financial highlights include net sales of $1,021.9 million, with adjusted net sales at $959.5 million after accounting for the planned divestiture. The company faced a net loss of $29.1 million, while adjusted net income was $33.1 million. The gross margin decreased to 7.9%, impacted by higher production and distribution costs.
The company is focusing on higher-margin, value-added products and expects the strategic moves to enhance long-term profitability. Fresh Del Monte’s management remains optimistic about future growth and operational resilience, aiming to deliver sustained value to shareholders.
Looking ahead, Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc. plans to streamline its operations and concentrate on high-margin categories, positioning itself for stronger earnings and continued shareholder value creation.
