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 16, Segment Reporting, in Item 1, Financial Statements, for our financial information by segment.

Acquisitions and Divestitures:

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 4, Acquisitions and Divestitures, in Item 1, Financial Statements, for additional information on divestiture activities.

Business Trends and Items Affecting Comparability of Financial Results

Inflation, Supply Chain, and Tariff Impacts:

During the six months ended June 28, 2025, we experienced inflationary pressures at a slightly elevated rate compared to the inflationary pressures experienced throughout 2024. We are closely monitoring the recent tariff and trade policy actions changes taken by the United States and foreign governments. As the situation continues to remain fluid due to the rapidly changing global trade environment, we continue to evaluate the potential implications of these actions on our business. If enacted as currently outlined, we expect that the proposed trade policy changes would primarily impact a subset of our North America segment (primarily within our Hydration and Coffee platforms). We anticipate an increase in cost of products sold due to certain raw materials currently sourced from outside
