Cautious Hold Rating on Lamb Weston Holdings Amidst Stabilizing EBITDA and Industry ChallengesWe view Lamb Weston's 4Q results, FY26 outlook, and cost savings initiatives as a sign that the business is stabilizing its EBITDA declines and poised for better performance when supply / demand conditions in the industry improve over time. That said, we don't expect the stock to rally further (+16% yesterday) until there's a clearer path for positive EBITDA inflection. Why Did The Stock Rally So Much? The stock faded into the print on concerns that 4Q would miss and that price cuts would cause another EBITDA decline in FY26. Instead, 4Q beat due to volume growth and stronger business execution and management laid out a credible plan for improving their reputation with investors after two years of missing expectations.
