Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc. Reports First Quarter Earnings for Fiscal 2026

Historic Brand Reunification Strengthens Multi-Category Growth Platform

Portfolio Discipline and Segment Mix Support Margin Performance

Operating Cash Flow Supports Strategic Investment and Shareholder Returns

CORAL GABLES, FL. - May 5, 2026 - Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc. (NYSE: FDP) ("Fresh Del Monte" or the "Company") today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 27, 2026. For the first quarter of 2026, the Company reported earnings per diluted share of $0.21, or on an Adjusted basis, earnings per diluted share(1) of $0.63.

“Our first-quarter results reflect disciplined execution across a complex operating environment, with the business demonstrating resilience as we continue to strengthen and expand our portfolio,” said Mohammad Abu-Ghazaleh, Fresh Del Monte’s Chairman and CEO. “Importantly, the quarter included the initial contribution following the closing of the Del Monte Foods acquisition, expanding our portfolio and strengthening our position across both the perimeter and center of the store. We are encouraged by the initial performance of the Del Monte Foods business in its first week of ownership and remain focused on building on this momentum as we continue to scale the business and strengthen our overall platform.”

Following the Del Monte Foods transaction during the first quarter of 2026, the Company realigned its operating segments to align external reporting with the internal management reporting used to allocate resources and assess performance. As part of this realignment, the Company separated the prepared foods category from its fresh and value‑added products segment and established it as a distinct reportable segment. The prepared foods segment combines the recently acquired Del Monte Foods assets with Fresh Del Monte’s existing prepared foods operations.

The prepared foods segment primarily includes packaged food products such as Del Monte® and S&W® packaged vegetables; Del Monte®, Contadina®, and S&W® packaged tomato products; Del Monte® packaged meals and snacks; pineapple concentrate; beverages and juices; and prepared fruit products sold in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.

The Company’s remaining reportable segments are fresh and value‑added products, bananas, and other products and services. The fresh and value‑added products segment includes the Company’s fresh produce portfolio, primarily pineapples, fresh-cut fruit, fresh-cut vegetables (which includes fresh-cut salads), melons, vegetables, non-tropical fruit (including grapes, apples, citrus, blueberries, strawberries, pears, peaches, plums, nectarines, cherries, and kiwis), other fruit and vegetables, avocados, and other fresh food offerings. The other products and services segment primarily includes the Company’s third‑party freight and logistics services business, poultry and meats operations, and specialty ingredients business.

Financial highlights for the first quarter of 2026:

The Company announced its intent to divest its Mann Packing Inc. business operations ("Mann Packing") in the third quarter of 2025 and completed the transaction during the fourth quarter of 2025. Accordingly, the following financial highlights also include adjusted basis results to reflect the impact of the divestiture.

Page 2 of 15

Net sales for the first quarter of 2026 were $1,044.1 million. The decrease of 4.9% was primarily driven by lower net sales in the Company's fresh and value-added products segment, reflecting the strategic divestiture of its Mann Packing business in the fourth quarter of 2025, as well as lower net sales in its avocado product line due to industry-wide oversupply, which resulted in lower per-unit selling prices. The decrease was partially offset by net sales from the Company's acquisition of Del Monte Foods in March 2026, as well as the favorable impact of fluctuations in exchange rates primarily related to the Euro. On an Adjusted basis, net sales(1) were in line with reported net sales for the first quarter of 2026.

Gross profit for the first quarter of 2026 was $89.0 million. The decrease in gross profit was primarily driven by lower gross profit in the Company's other products and services business segment, reflecting lower per-unit selling prices in its poultry and meats business due to slower demand and the impact of the Middle East conflict. Gross profit was also negatively impacted in the Company's prepared foods business segment, driven by higher per-unit production and procurement costs. Across the portfolio, results were affected by supply chain disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz associated with geopolitical developments and the unfavorable impact of fluctuations in exchange rates due to a stronger Costa Rican colon. The decrease was partially offset by higher per-unit selling prices in the Company's banana and pineapple product lines, as well as the acquisition of Del Monte Foods. Gross margin increased to 8.5%. Adjusted gross margin was 8.7%.

Operating income for the first quarter of 2026 was $20.1 million. The decrease was primarily driven by higher asset impairment and other charges, net, when compared to the prior-year period. Adjusted operating income(1) for the first quarter of 2026 was $40.2 million.

Income from equity method investments for the first quarter of 2026 was $6.6 million. The increase was due to higher equity earnings of unconsolidated companies within the food and nutrition sector compared to the prior-year period. The higher equity earnings were due to distributions received in excess of the carrying value at the time of liquidation of a fund in which we previously held an interest.

FDP net income(2) for the first quarter of 2026 was $10.0 million. Adjusted FDP net income(1) was $29.9 million.

First Quarter of 2026 Business Segment Performance

Following the Del Monte Foods transaction during the first quarter of 2026, the Company realigned its operating segments to reflect the internal management reporting used by the management team to allocate resources and assess performance. As part of this realignment, the Company separated the prepared foods category from its fresh and value‑added products segment and established it as a distinct reportable segment. The prepared foods segment combines the recently acquired Del Monte® Foods assets with Fresh Del Monte’s existing prepared foods operations across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. The prepared foods segment primarily includes packaged food products, such as Del Monte® and S&W® packaged vegetables; Del Monte®, Contadina®, and S&W® packaged tomato products; Del Monte® packaged meals and snacks; pineapple concentrate; beverages and juices; and prepared fruit products sold in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. The Company's financial results are presented to reflect these reorganized reportable segments. Prior periods were retrospectively adjusted to conform to the new segment composition and will be reflected in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 27, 2026.

Fresh and Value-Added Products

Net sales for the first quarter of 2026 were $549.0 million. The decrease in net sales was primarily a result of strategic reductions in the Company's fresh and fresh-cut vegetables business, including the divestiture of its Mann Packing business, and lower per-unit selling prices in its avocado product line due to industry-wide oversupply. The decrease was partially offset by higher net sales in the Company's pineapple product line due to higher per-unit selling prices and the favorable impact of fluctuations in exchange rates primarily related to the euro. On an Adjusted basis, net sales(1) were in line with reported net sales for the first quarter of 2026.

Gross profit for the first quarter of 2026 was $59.8 million. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by the divestiture of the Company's Mann Packing business, which generated negative gross profit in the prior-year period, and higher per-unit selling prices in the Company's pineapple product line. The increase was partially offset by lower net sales, higher per-unit production costs in its melon product line, as well as weather-related events in North America that negatively impacted sales volume in the Company's fresh-cut fruit product line and contributed to lower per-unit selling prices in its melon product line. Gross margin increased to 10.9%. Adjusted gross profit(1) for the first quarter of 2026 was $60.6 million. Adjusted gross margin decreased to 11.0%.

Banana

Net sales for the first quarter of 2026 were $357.1 million. The decrease in net sales was primarily a result of lower sales volume in Asia due to lower supply, including the impact of supplier changes in the quarter, and in North America due to weak market demand and the impact of adverse weather. The decrease was partially offset by higher per-unit selling prices across all of the Company's regions, and the favorable impact of fluctuations in exchange rates, primarily related to the euro. On an Adjusted basis, net sales(1) were in line with the first quarter of 2026.

Gross profit for the first quarter of 2026 was $16.5 million. The decrease in gross profit was primarily driven by higher per-unit production and procurement costs, partially offset by higher per-unit selling prices. Gross margin was in line with the prior year at 4.6%. Adjusted gross profit(1) for the first quarter of 2026 was $18.0 million. Adjusted gross margin increased to 5.0%.

Prepared Foods

Net sales for the first quarter of 2026 were $82.5 million. The increase in net sales was primarily driven by the Company's acquisition of Del Monte Foods, which closed late in March 2026, partially offset by lower net sales in Europe due to a lower availability of fruit inputs, including pineapple, used in the Company's canned pineapple product line.

Gross profit for the first quarter of 2026 was $8.9 million. The decrease in gross profit was primarily driven by lower net sales in Europe and higher per-unit production and distribution costs, partially offset by the Company's acquisition of Del Monte Foods. Gross margin decreased to 10.8%.

Other Products and Services

Net sales for the first quarter of 2026 were $55.5 million. The increase in net sales was the result of higher net sales of the Company's third-party freight services business, partially offset by lower net sales in its poultry and meats business due to lower per-unit selling prices.

Gross profit for the first quarter of 2026 was $3.8 million. The decrease in gross profit was primarily a result of lower per-unit selling prices in its poultry and meats business. Gross margin decreased to 6.8%.

Cash Flows

Net cash provided by operating activities for the first quarter of 2026 was $44.1 million. The decrease compared to the prior-year period was primarily driven by lower net income, partially offset by changes in non-cash items, including higher asset impairments, and working capital fluctuations, primarily related to lower inventory levels and higher trade receivables due to the timing of period-end collections.

Long-Term Debt

Long-term debt increased to $438.0 million at the end of the first quarter of 2026, compared with $173.0 million at the end of fiscal year 2025, primarily reflecting debt incurred in connection with the acquisition of select assets of Del Monte Foods, which closed on March 19, 2026.

Quarterly Cash Dividend

On April 28, 2026, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share, payable on June 11, 2026, to shareholders of record on May 19, 2026.

Share Repurchase Program

During the first quarter of 2026, the Company repurchased 100,000 shares of common stock for $4.0 million at an average price of $40.24 per share. As of March 27, 2026, $116.2 million remained available under the current plan.

Non-GAAP Measures

The Company's results are determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Certain information presented in this press release reflects adjustments to GAAP measures that are referred to in this press release as “non-GAAP measures.” Management believes these non-GAAP measures provide a more comparable analysis of the underlying operating performance of the business.

These non-GAAP measures include the following: Adjusted net sales, Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted gross margin, Adjusted operating income, Adjusted FDP net income, Adjusted diluted EPS, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA margin, and Adjusted EBITDA margin. Adjusted net sales, Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted gross margin, Adjusted operating income, Adjusted FDP net income and Adjusted diluted EPS each reflect adjustments relating to the divestiture of Mann Packing, asset impairment and other charges, net, gain on disposal of property, plant and equipment, net and other product-related charges. EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc. excluding interest expense, net, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and share-based compensation expense. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA with additional adjustments for the divestiture of Mann Packing (excluding the impact of depreciation, amortization, asset impairment and other charges, net, gain on disposal of property, plant and equipment, net and income taxes already included within the EBITDA calculation), sales claims arising from delays and disruptions to shipments passing through the Strait of Hormuz, asset impairment and other charges, net, gain on disposal of property, plant and equipment, net, and other product-related charges. EBITDA margin represents EBITDA as a percentage of net sales, and Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of Adjusted net sales.

These non-GAAP measures provide the Company with an understanding of the results from the primary operations of its business. The Company uses these metrics because management believes they provide more comparable measures to evaluate period-over-period operating performance since they exclude special items that are not indicative of the Company's core business or operations. These measures may be useful to an investor in evaluating the underlying operating performance of the Company's business because these measures:

1.Are used by investors to measure a company's comparable operating performance;

2.Are financial measurements that are used by lenders and other parties to evaluate creditworthiness; and

3.Are used by the Company's management for various purposes, including as measures of performance of its operating entities, as a basis of strategic planning and forecasting, and in certain cases as a basis for incentive compensation.

Because all companies do not use identical calculations, the Company's presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are provided in the financial tables that accompany this release.
