Ingredion ( (INGR) ) has shared an update.

On February 9, 2026, Ingredion’s board appointed President and CEO James P. Zallie as chairman, consolidating the roles of chief executive and board leader at the ingredients maker. The move marks a leadership transition at the board level, as former non-executive chairman Gregory B. Kenny stepped down from that role but remains a director, signaling continuity alongside the governance shift.

To balance the new executive chair structure and preserve independent oversight, the board’s independent directors elected Victoria J. Reich as lead director. In this position, Reich will act as the main liaison between the independent directors and Zallie, underscoring the board’s emphasis on maintaining checks and communication channels as it adjusts its leadership configuration.

The most recent analyst rating on (INGR) stock is a Hold with a $124.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Ingredion stock, see the INGR Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on INGR Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, INGR is a Outperform.

The score is driven primarily by strengthening financial fundamentals (higher profitability and lower leverage) and attractive valuation (low P/E with a solid dividend). These positives are tempered by declining revenue and uneven cash flow, plus near-term operational headwinds highlighted on the earnings call and technically overextended momentum.
