LW is showing better operating momentum, led by higher volumes and improved North America profitability. The progress matters because customer wins and lower manufacturing costs are beginning to support earnings even as restaurant traffic remains subdued. The trade-off is that pricing pressure, International weakness and a valuation near the broader sector leave limited room for execution setbacks. That balance argues for weighing the recovery against still-visible earnings risks. Lamb Weston Volume Gains Support the Bull Case Fiscal fourth-quarter consolidated sales volume increased 7%, marking the sixth consecutive quarter of volume growth. North America volume rose 11%, driven by customer contract wins, share gains, strong retention and the benefit of an extra week. North America adjusted EBITDA increased 17% to $304.7 million. Higher volume and lower manufacturing costs per pound more than offset inflation, unfavorable price/mix and higher operating expenses, showing that the core business is gaining operating leverage as execution improves. Lamb Weston Price, Consensus and EPS SurpriseLamb Weston Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise Lamb Weston price-consensus-eps-surprise-chart | Lamb Weston Quote LW Valuation Leaves Less Room for Execution Misses LW trades at 16.98X forward 12-month earnings, versus 14.78X for the Zacks sub-industry and 17.18X for the Zacks Consumer Staples sector. The stock therefore carries a premium to its sub-industry while sitting close to the broader sector multiple. That valuation makes continued execution important. Conagra Brands CAG, a branded food company with a refrigerated and frozen portfolio, offers another packaged-food benchmark for investors assessing volume, pricing and margin trade-offs. The Kraft Heinz Company KHC, through its Ore-Ida frozen potato business, provides a more direct category reference point. Lamb Weston Pricing Pressure Clouds Revenue Quality Fiscal 2026 sales volume increased 7%, but price/mix declined 6%, limiting net sales growth to 2%. In the fourth quarter, company-wide price/mix fell 3%, including a 2% decline in North America. Management expects North America price/mix to decline in the low single digits in fiscal 2027. Pricing and trade support, combined with a mix shift toward faster-growing chain customers and private-label products, could keep revenue quality under pressure even if volumes remain positive. LW's International Drag Keeps Risk Elevated International adjusted EBITDA fell 55% to $115 million in fiscal 2026 and dropped 81% to $11.8 million in the fourth quarter. Lower organic sales, weaker price/mix, potato write-offs and underutilized facilities weighed on profitability. Story Continues Lamb Weston has taken capacity actions in Europe, including temporarily curtailing a line and planning to close an older Netherlands facility representing about 10% of EMEA production capacity. Fiscal 2027 guidance still calls for International net sales to decline in the low single digits, keeping the recovery dependent on better utilization and operating execution.Zacks Investment Research Image Source: Zacks Investment Research Lamb Weston's Hold Signal Favors Patience The operating case is improving, but the combination of sub-industry valuation premium, persistent price/mix pressure and International weakness leaves the risk-reward profile balanced. The current fiscal-year earnings estimate has also declined 1.3% over the past four weeks, which tempers the case for chasing the stock after its operational improvement. LW currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), with a Value Score of B, Growth Score of B, Momentum Score of D and VGM Score of B.

Management attributed the weak top-line performance to continued softness in U.S. consumption and lower sales volumes, while incremental investment in marketing and innovation began to show early signs of stabilization in select brands. CEO Steven Cahillane acknowledged, \"Nobody is doing a victory lap that we're declining less than we anticipated, but it is moving in the right direction,\" highlighting cautious optimism amid gradual improvement in consumption rates and market share trends. Looking forward, Kraft Heinz is increasing its investment in brand marketing and innovation, aiming to drive volume-led recovery and sustainable share gains through 2027. The company's updated guidance rests on further improvements in consumption rates, especially from new product launches and targeted campaigns behind core brands like Heinz and Mac & Cheese. CFO Andre Maciel emphasized, \"Having all these investments in the base now in '26 gives the optionality next year,\" underscoring a flexible approach to future spending as the company seeks to balance market share recovery with organic sales growth. Key Insights from Management's Remarks Management pointed to stepped-up brand investments, new product momentum, and improved market share as the primary factors shaping quarterly results and forward-looking priorities. U.S. consumption trends: Despite ongoing volume declines, management noted improved consumption rates in the latter part of the quarter, with categories like Taste Elevation and Capri Sun showing early signs of stabilization. These improvements were linked to targeted investments in innovation and marketing. Brand-specific innovation: New packaging and product launches in Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh, Lunchables Snackables, and PowerMac drove incremental sales for those brands. Cahillane described the performance of PowerMac as \"very, very incremental to us and to the category,\" signaling successful innovation execution. Emerging markets strength: Kraft Heinz reported robust growth internationally, with Heinz posting double-digit gains in emerging markets. Management credited expanded distribution and rising consumption in these regions as supporting overall company momentum. Away From Home recovery: The global Away From Home channel (which includes foodservice and hospitality) returned to growth after previous underperformance, aided by renewed product and distribution investments. Management identified this as a strategic focus area for future share gains. Marketing investment ramp: Only a third of the planned $600 million incremental marketing spend was deployed by quarter-end, with the remaining investment set to ramp evenly across the second half. The company subsequently added another $100 million to this pool, reinforcing its commitment to brand revitalization.

Most Read from Bloomberg China Unleashes $28 Trillion Capital Markets to Challenge US in AI Stocks Wobble on Hormuz Standoff as Nvidia Sinks: Markets Wrap Iran Shakes Up Security Team After Saying Oman Deal 'Very Close' Trump Amps Up Pressure on Billionaire Sargeant to Exit Venezuela GameStop's Ryan Cohen Weighs Pulling $56 Billion EBay Offer Chief executives and trade group representatives sent letters and called the White House in a bid to delay the release of a white paper marking the first federal effort to define the controversial food category. The industry argued that laying out the definition would open it up to litigation, increase costs and hurt business, according to the people, who weren't authorized to speak publicly. Leaders have been airing their concerns for several weeks, arguing the definition could make processed food more expensive and impact federal nutrition programs, an industry official said. The administration has been working on a definition of ultra-processed food that is expected to focus on whether it includes certain \"cosmetic\" ingredients aimed at altering a food's appearance, according to others familiar with the discussions, who asked to remain anonymous because the conversations aren't public. The definition is also expected to take into account whether the products include ingredients that aren't commonly used in home kitchens, they said. The effort to define ultra-processed food remains on track, an administration official told Bloomberg. The only special interest guiding the effort is the best interest of the American people, they said. The Health and Human Services Department held an event Monday billed as a celebration of two major food policy announcements, but then unveiled only one proposal targeting new food ingredients. Acting Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Kyle Diamantas told reporters on a call Monday that the administration has \"submitted for final review a proposed definition of ultra-processed foods aimed at creating a stronger foundation for future federal nutrition research.\" Additional information will be shared \"at a future time,\" he said. The white paper with the definition has not yet been cleared by the White House budget office, leaving many in the food industry uncertain as to when the administration is planning to release it. Story Continues Top health officials have said Americans are getting sick from ultra-processed food, a broad category of largely packaged products that account for much of what's sold in US supermarkets. But the federal government has not yet mapped out what it considers ultra-processed food. The definition will take the form of a white paper, rather than a formal regulation, according to a regulatory notice published when HHS submitted it for review to the White House budget office. It is expected to include an exemption for foods that meet an already-established \"healthy\" criteria by the Food and Drug Administration. That carve-out may spare foods with nutritional benefits, such as some yogurts and whole-grain breads, from being classified as ultra-processed. White House and HHS spokespeople said discussions about any changes should be considered speculation unless they are officially announced. \"The policy remains under interagency review and has not been finalized,\" the HHS spokesperson said. Americans currently get more than half of their daily calories from ultra-processed foods, which account for about 62% of childhood diets, according to a nutrition survey from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The food industry has been closely watching the administration's efforts to craft the definition that could affect a broad swath of packaged foods.

News Release", "content_text": "OMAHA, Neb., August 08, 2026--(BUSINESS WIRE)--(BRK.A; BRK.B) \u2013 Berkshire's operating results for the second quarter and first six months of 2026 and 2025 are summarized in the following paragraphs. However, we urge investors and reporters to read our 10-Q, which has been posted at www.berkshirehathaway.com. The limited information that follows in this press release is not adequate for making an informed investment judgment. Earnings of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries for the second quarter and first six months of 2026 and 2025 are summarized below. Earnings are stated on an after-tax basis. (Dollar amounts are in millions, except for per share amounts). Second Quarter First Six Months 2026 2025 2026 2025 Net earnings attributable to Berkshire shareholders $ 25,667 $ 12,370 $ 35,773 $ 16,973 Net earnings includes: Investment gains (losses) 12,684 4,970 11,444 (68 ) Other-than-temporary impairment of investment in Kraft Heinz \u2014 (3,760 ) \u2014 (3,760 ) Operating earnings 12,983 11,160 24,329 20,801 Net earnings attributable to Berkshire shareholders $ 25,667 $ 12,370 $ 35,773 $ 16,973 Net earnings per average equivalent Class A Share $ 17,868 $ 8,601 $ 24,889 $ 11,801 Net earnings per average equivalent Class B Share $ 11.91 $ 5.73 $ 16.59 $ 7.87 Average equivalent Class A shares outstanding 1,436,443 1,438,223 1,437,279 1,438,223 Average equivalent Class B shares outstanding 2,154,664,073 2,157,335,139 2,155,918,015 2,157,335,139 Note: Per share amounts for Class B shares are 1/1,500th of those shown for Class A shares. In the table above, investment gains (losses) in each period predominantly relate to our investments in equity securities. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (\"GAAP\") require that we include the changes in unrealized gains (losses) of our equity security investments as a component of investment gains (losses) in our earnings statements. Investment gains (losses) in 2026 include gains of $10.9 billion in the second quarter and $3.9 billion in the first six months and in 2025 include gains of $1.5 billion in the second quarter and losses of $5.9 billion in the first six months due to changes during the second quarter and the first six months in the unrealized gains that existed in our equity security investment holdings. Investment gains (losses) in 2026 also include after-tax realized gains on sales of investments of $1.8 billion in the second quarter and $7.5 billion in the first six months and in 2025 include $4.2 billion in the second quarter and $6.6 billion in the first six months. Investment gains (losses) in the table above also include losses of $0.7 billion in the second quarter and first six months of 2025 from other investments. Story Continues The amount of investment gains (losses) in any given quarter is usually meaningless and delivers figures for net earnings per share that can be extremely misleading to investors who have little or no knowledge of accounting rules.
