Pilgrim’s Pride Reports Q1 Net Sales of $2.72 Billion, Operating Income of $137 Million and GAAP EPS of $0.34

GREELEY, Colo., May 1, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Pilgrim’s Pride Corporation (NASDAQ: PPC) reports first quarter 2019 financial results.

First Quarter Highlights
Net Sales of $2.72 billion.
Net Income of $84.0 million.
Operating Income margins of 6.1% in U.S., 2.9% in Mexico and 2.5% in Europe operations, respectively.
Adjusted EBITDA of $204.4 million (or a 7.5% margin), and Adjusted EPS of $0.35.
Significant sequential rebound in U.S. operations vs. Q4, driven by stronger markets as feature activities tracked much closer to seasonality. Our balanced portfolio has continued to evolve, realizing the results of investments made over the past few years to further widen our products and brands, strengthen key customer relationships, and improve margin consistency.
Weaker than seasonal markets in Mexico impacted results but conditions are already improving in Q2. Diversification into premium Pilgrim’s brand is gaining momentum and producing strong results, together with significant growth in Prepared Foods.
In-line with the industry, Europe continued to be impacted by a substantial increase in input costs. We are offsetting the increase through capture of synergies and adjustments in pricing models.

“After a very challenging market in 2018, we experienced a much better environment within our U.S. operations during Q1 particularly in commodity large bird deboning, with demand from retailers and QSR operators rebounding as they recognized the value of chicken. Feature activities normalized to seasonal levels throughout the quarter and the momentum has been sustained into early Q2. Commodity boneless prices have already surpassed levels from a year ago and are close to the five-year average, while wing prices are near historical highs. We have been heavily investing in further differentiating our portfolio to increase our capacities and capabilities to meet customer expectations. The investments in the operations and the focus of our people have yielded an increase in performance, and further growth prospects remain available. We are driving growth while continuing to pursue future opportunities by intensifying our efforts in innovation and marketing. We expect value added, differentiated products to account for a larger portion of our total results over the next few years as we continue to reduce the volatility of our commodity sales mix,” stated Jayson Penn, Chief Executive Officer of Pilgrim's.

“Market balance dynamics in Mexico were weaker than seasonal in Q1. Better than expected growing conditions and softer demand have impacted prices. Chicken demand was also affected by more availability of imported pork from the U.S. during the quarter but we believe chicken demand can continue to grow in-line with historical rates longer term. The environment has already started to recover in Q2 and prices have begun to react positively, with growing conditions reverting back to normal, demand improving, and competition from pork imports declining. Our Prepared Foods have continued to grow at a double digit rate and are generating great results under both premium Pilgrim’s and Del Dia brands to drive the evolution of our Mexican portfolio towards more differentiated, higher-value products giving us a clear path to margin expansion.”

“In-line with the whole industry, our European operations continued to be impacted by a substantial increase in input costs, including feed ingredients, higher utilities, labor and packaging. These increases were partially offset by cost reduction initiatives, synergies and price adjustments some of which have taken slightly longer than expected to be passed on and reflected in customer contracts. Despite the impact in results, we expect an improvement month over month as we adjust our prices based on key customer’s contracts and expect the full recovery within our pricing models.”

PILGRIM’S PRIDE CORPORATION
Selected Financial Information
(Unaudited)

“EBITDA” is defined as the sum of net income (loss) plus interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. “Adjusted EBITDA” is calculated by adding to EBITDA certain items of expense and deducting from EBITDA certain items of income that we believe are not indicative of our ongoing operating performance consisting of: (i) income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests, (ii) restructuring charges, (iii) reorganization items, (iv) losses on early extinguishment of debt and (v) foreign currency transaction losses (gains). EBITDA is presented because it is used by management and we believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, in addition to and not in lieu of results prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the US (“GAAP”), to compare the performance of companies. We believe investors would be interested in our Adjusted EBITDA because this is how our management analyzes EBITDA. The Company also believes that Adjusted EBITDA, in combination with the Company’s financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP, provides investors with additional perspective regarding the impact of certain significant items on EBITDA and facilitates a more direct comparison of its performance with its competitors. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of financial performance under GAAP. They should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity or an alternative to net income as indicators of our operating performance or any other measures of performance derived in accordance with GAAP.
