Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

Objective:

The following discussion provides an analysis of our financial condition and results of operations from management's perspective and should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Item 1, Financial Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our objective is to also provide discussion of material events and uncertainties known to management that are reasonably likely to cause reported financial information not to be indicative of future operating results or of future financial condition and to offer information that provides an understanding of our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Description of the Company: 

We manufacture and market food and beverage products, including condiments and sauces, cheese and dairy, meals, meats, refreshment beverages, coffee, and other grocery products throughout the world.

We manage our operating results through four operating segments: North America, Europe and Pacific Developed Markets (“EPDM” or “International Developed Markets”), West and East Emerging Markets (“WEEM”), and Asia Emerging Markets (“AEM”). We have two reportable segments defined by geographic region: North America and International Developed Markets. Our remaining operating segments, consisting of WEEM and AEM, are combined and disclosed as Emerging Markets.

See Note 17, Segment Reporting, in Item 1, Financial Statements, for our financial information by segment.

Proposed Separation Transaction:

On September 2, 2025, we announced our plan to separate the Company into two independent, publicly traded companies through a tax-free spin-off. The Separation is expected to allow each company to have greater strategic and operational focus to better serve customers, customize capital allocation, and accelerate profitable growth. We currently expect to complete the Separation in the second half of 2026. See Part II. Items 1A. Risk Factors of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion of risks relating to the Separation.

Acquisitions and Divestitures:

On July 9, 2025, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell our infant and specialty food business in Italy, within our International Developed Markets segment, which is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026. In the first quarter of 2024, we closed the sale of the Russia Infant Transaction and the Papua New Guinea Transaction, both within Emerging Markets. See Note 5, Acquisitions and Divestitures, in Item 1, Financial Statements, for additional information on divestiture activities.
