Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc. Reports Second Quarter Earnings for Fiscal 2025
Net sales rose 4% and gross profit increased 6% year-over-year, with gross margin expanding 30 basis points to 10.2%, driven by strong seasonal execution
Sales grew across both the fresh and value-added products and banana business segments, with gross profit gains driven by specialty pineapple varieties and fresh-cut fruit offerings
Balance sheet remained strong, supported by robust cash flow and low debt levels
Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc. (NYSE:FDP), ("Fresh Del Monte" or the "Company") today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 27, 2025.
"Fresh Del Monte's second quarter 2025 results reflect the strength of a strategy rooted in consistency, discipline, and long-term vision. Sales growth was fueled by continued demand for our core products, including our proprietary pineapple varieties, and strong momentum across our fresh-cut business—an area where we're seeing encouraging progress and expanding margins," said Mohammad Abu-Ghazaleh, Fresh Del Monte's Chairman and CEO. "Our global leadership in proprietary pineapple varieties is the result of decades of innovation and investment—a commitment that now drives our momentum across the fresh and value-added products segment and beyond. These results affirm the power of focus and execution, as well as the long-term advantage created by differentiated offerings. We remain committed to building on this foundation and creating sustained value for our shareholders."
Financial highlights for the second quarter 2025:
Net sales for the second quarter of 2025 were $1,182.5 million compared with $1,139.7 million in the prior-year period. The increase in net sales was primarily driven by higher net sales in the Company's fresh and value-added products and banana segments due to higher per unit selling prices and the favorable impact of fluctuations in exchange rates, primarily related to the Euro, Japanese yen and British pound. The increase in net sales also reflects tariff-related price adjustments in North America.
Gross profit for the second quarter of 2025 was $120.1 million compared with $113.2 million in the prior-year period. The increase in gross profit for the quarter was primarily driven by higher net sales in the Company's fresh and value-added products segment, partially offset by higher per unit production and procurement costs, as well as higher distribution costs, including the impact of tariff-related charges in North America. Gross margin for the second quarter of 2025 increased to 10.2% compared with 9.9% in the prior-year period.
Adjusted gross profit(1) for the second quarter of 2025 was $120.1 million compared with $114.4 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted gross profit for the second quarter of 2024 included $1.2 million of other product-related charges, primarily related to shipment disruptions in the Red Sea and clean-up costs associated with the flooding of a seasonal production facility in Greece during 2023. No other product-related charges were recorded during the second quarter of 2025.
Operating income for the second quarter of 2025 was $68.3 million compared with $68.2 million in the prior-year period. The increase in operating income was primarily driven by higher gross profit, partially offset by a lower gain on disposal of property, plant and equipment, net, in the current year period.
Adjusted operating income(1) for the second quarter of 2025 was $68.8 million compared with $64.5 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted operating income for the second quarter of 2025 excluded an impairment charge related to a leased farm in Chile. In the prior-year period, Adjusted operating income, primarily excluded the above mentioned other product related charges, a $3.4 million gain on asset sale of a European warehouse and $2.0 million of insurance recoveries associated with fire damage to a warehouse facility in South America during 2023, partially offset by impairment charges of banana-related fixed assets in the Philippines.
Other (income) expense, net, for the second quarter of 2025 was a gain of $6.2 million compared with a gain of $2.3 million in the prior-year period. The change was primarily due to equity earnings from unconsolidated companies within the food and nutrition sector.
FDP net income(2) for the second quarter of 2025 was $56.8 million compared with $53.6 million in the prior-year period and Adjusted FDP net income(1) was $59.1 million compared with $50.9 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted FDP net income for both periods excludes the above-mentioned adjustments and the tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments.

Second Quarter 2025 Business Segment Performance
Fresh and Value-Added Products
Net sales for the second quarter of 2025 were $722.6 million compared with $694.1 million in the prior-year period. The increase in net sales was primarily a result of higher per unit selling prices in the Company's pineapple product line, higher sales volume and per unit selling prices in it's fresh-cut fruit product line due to strong market demand, the favorable impact of fluctuations in exchange rates, primarily related to the British pound, Euro and Japanese yen, and tariff-related price adjustments in North America. The increase was partially offset by lower net sales in the Company's fresh-cut vegetable and vegetable product lines due to strategic operational reductions during the fourth quarter of 2024, which included the sale of certain assets of Fresh Leaf Farms.
Gross profit for the second quarter of 2025 was $84.9 million compared with $77.9 million in the prior-year period. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by higher net sales, partially offset by higher per unit production and procurement costs, as well as increased distribution costs, including the impact of tariff-related charges in North America. Gross margin increased to 11.7% compared with 11.2% in the prior-year period.
Banana
Net sales for the second quarter of 2025 were $410.0 million compared with $394.3 million in the prior-year period. The increase in net sales was primarily driven by higher per unit selling prices across all of the Company's regions, combined with the favorable impact of fluctuations in exchange rates, primarily related to the Euro, and tariff-related price adjustments in North America. Sales volume increased in the Middle East, reflecting a recovery from the prior-year shipment disruptions caused by the Red Sea conflict. These gains were partially offset by lower sales volume in Asia and North America.
Gross profit for the second quarter of 2025 was $30.0 million compared with $29.8 million in the prior-year period. The slight increase in gross profit reflects the benefit of higher net sales, partially offset by higher per unit production and procurement costs resulting from adverse weather conditions in the Company's growing regions and higher distribution costs, including the impact of tariff-related charges in North America. Gross margin decreased to 7.3% compared with 7.6% in the prior-year period.
Other Products and Services
Net sales for the second quarter of 2025 were $49.9 million, compared with $51.3 million in the prior-year period. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to lower net sales in the Company's poultry and meats business due to lower per unit selling prices.
Gross profit for the second quarter of 2025 was $5.2 million compared with $5.5 million in the prior-year period. The decrease in gross profit was primarily a result of lower net sales in the Company's poultry and meats business. Gross margin decreased to 10.4% compared with 10.7% in the prior-year period.
Cash Flows
Net cash provided by operating activities for the first six months of 2025 was $159.2 million compared with $143.7 million in the prior-year period. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to higher net income and working capital fluctuations, mainly driven by higher levels of accounts payable and accrued expenses, as a result of the timing of period end payments to suppliers. The increase was partially offset by higher levels of inventory when compared to the prior-year period.
Long Term Debt
Long-term debt decreased to $201.0 million at the end of the second quarter of 2025, an $84 million or 29% reduction from $285.0 million at the end of the second quarter of 2024.
Quarterly Cash Dividend
On July 29, 2025, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share, payable on September 5, 2025, to shareholders of record on August 13, 2025.
Share Repurchase Program
During the second quarter of 2025, the Company did not repurchase shares as part of the $150.0 million share repurchase program. As of June 27, 2025, $142.4 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 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 gross profit, Adjusted gross margin, Adjusted operating income, Adjusted FDP net income and Adjusted diluted EPS each reflect adjustments relating to asset impairment and other charges (credits), net, gain on disposal of property, plant and equipment, net and other product-related (credits) 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 asset impairment and other charges (credits), net, gain on disposal of property, plant and equipment, net, and other product-related (credits) charges. EBITDA margin represents EBITDA as a percentage of net sales, and Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of 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:
- Are used by investors to measure a company's comparable operating performance;
- Are financial measurements that are used by lenders and other parties to evaluate creditworthiness; and
- 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.
