Gross Margin Increased By 180 Basis Points Compared to the Prior-Year Period: Driven by Fresh and Value-Added Products Segment
Strategic Decision on Mann Packing Finalized to Enhance Profitability and Position for Growth
CORAL GABLES, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc. (NYSE: FDP), ("Fresh Del Monte" or the "Company") today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 27, 2024.
"We are pleased to report strong performance in the third quarter. Our strategic focus on high-margin, value-added products continues to deliver positive results, demonstrating the strength of our product innovations and our commitment to driving long-term profitability and value for our shareholders,” said Fresh Del Monte Chairman and CEO Mohammad Abu-Ghazaleh. "As committed, we have announced our decision on Mann Packing following our strategic review—a defining step that we believe will boost profitability, reinforce resilience, and deliver sustained growth.”
Financial highlights for the third quarter 2024:
Net sales for the third quarter of 2024 were $1,019.5 million compared with $1,003.1 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 product segment due to higher sales volume, as well as increased per unit selling prices principally of avocado and pineapple, as a result of strong market demand. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in net sales in the Company's banana segment, primarily driven by competitive market pressures.
Gross profit for the third quarter of 2024 was $93.8 million compared with $74.4 million in the prior-year period. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by higher sales volume and higher per unit selling prices in the Company's fresh and value-added product segment, partially offset by higher per unit production and procurement costs, lower sales volume in the Company's banana segment, and the negative impact of fluctuations in exchange rates, primarily related to a stronger Costa Rican colon. Gross margin for the third quarter of 2024 increased to 9.2% compared with 7.4% in the prior-year period.
Gross profit for the third quarter of 2024 included $0.6 million of other product-related charges, net, primarily as a result of $1.0 million of additional logistic and inventory write-offs incurred as a result of Hurricane Beryl during July 2024, partially offset by $0.6 million of insurance recoveries related to shipment disruptions in the Red Sea during the second quarter of 2024. Gross profit for the third quarter of 2023 included $8.4 million of other product-related charges, net, comprised primarily of an inventory write-off and clean-up costs related to the flooding of a seasonal production facility in Greece due to heavy rainstorms. Excluding the net impact from the other product-related charges, Adjusted gross profit
(1)
for the third quarter of 2024 was $94.4 million compared with $82.8 million in the prior-year period.
Operating income for the third quarter of 2024 was $53.9 million compared with $25.4 million in the prior-year period. The increase in operating income was primarily driven by higher gross profit combined with the higher gain on the sale of property, plant and equipment.
Operating income for the third quarter of 2024 included asset impairment and other charges, net, of $0.2 million due to heavy wind and rainstorms in Chile, $7.7 million gain from the sale of a warehouse in Chile and $0.3 million gain from the sale of an idle packing facility in Costa Rica. In the prior-year period, operating income included the $8.4 million of inventory write-off primarily due to severe flooding in Greece, a $2.5 million of asset impairment and other charges related to impairments of grape vines in South America due to low productivity, idle land in Central America, and expenses incurred in connection with a cybersecurity incident in the first quarter of 2023. Additionally, there was a $2.0 million gain from the sale of underutilized assets in South and Central America. Excluding the net impact from the other product-related charges, Adjusted operating income
(1)
was $46.5 million compared with $34.3 million in the prior-year period.
Other (income) expense, net, for the third quarter of 2024 was a gain of $0.1 million compared with a loss of $7.1 million in the prior-year period. The change was primarily due to the equity earnings of unconsolidated companies within the food and nutrition sector and lower foreign currency losses as compared with the prior-year period.
FDP net income
(2)
for the third quarter of 2024 was $42.1 million compared with $8.4 million in the prior-year period and Adjusted FDP net income
(1)
was $37.0 million compared with $17.2 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted FDP net income for the third quarter of 2024, excludes the above-mentioned adjustments and the associated $2.3 million tax effect. In the prior-year period, Adjusted FDP net income excludes the above-mentioned adjustments and the associated $0.1 million tax effect.

Third Quarter 2024 Business Segment Performance
Fresh and Value-Added Products
Net sales
for the third quarter of 2024 were $623.7 million compared with $574.0 million in the prior-year period. The increase in net sales was primarily a result of higher sales volume, as well as higher per unit selling prices in the Company's avocado, pineapple, prepared food, and fresh-cut fruit product lines due to strong market demand. These increases were partially offset by lower net sales of vegetables due to lower sales volume as a result of strategic volume rationalization.
Gross profit
for the third quarter of 2024 was $63.3 million compared with $36.2 million in the prior-year period. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by higher net sales and lower per unit production costs of pineapple and fresh-cut fruit, partially offset by the negative impact of fluctuations in exchange rates, primarily a stronger Costa Rican colon. Gross margin increased to 10.1% compared with 6.3% in the prior-year period.
Gross Profit for the third quarter of 2024 included $0.2 million of other product-related charges, net, primarily as a result of $0.6 million of additional logistic and inventory write-offs incurred as a result of Hurricane Beryl during July 2024, partially offset by $0.6 million of insurance recoveries related to shipment disruptions in the Red Sea during the second quarter of 2024. Gross profit for the third quarter of 2023 included $8.4 million of other product-related charges due to severe flooding caused by heavy rainstorms in Greece that impacted a seasonal production facility.
Banana
Net sales
for the third quarter of 2024 were $345.3 million compared with $384.7 million in the prior-year period. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to lower sales volume in the Company's North America region, due to competitive market pressures, and lower sales volume in the Company's Asia region, caused by decreased supply from the Philippines as a result of weather-related events. The decrease was partially offset by higher per unit selling prices in Asia, resulting from lower industry supply.
Gross profit
for the third quarter of 2024 was $21.3 million compared with $31.9 million in the prior-year period. The decrease in gross profit was principally driven by lower net sales, higher per unit production costs, and the negative impact of fluctuations in exchange rates due to a stronger Costa Rican colon, partially offset by lower per unit ocean freight costs. Gross margin decreased to 6.2% compared with 8.3% in the prior-year period.
Gross profit for the third quarter of 2024 included $0.4 million of other product-related charges, primarily as a result of additional logistic and inventory write-offs incurred as a result of Hurricane Beryl during July 2024.
Other Products and Services
Net sales
for the third quarter of 2024 were $50.5 million compared with $44.4 million in the prior-year period. The increase in net sales was primarily driven by higher per unit selling prices in the Company's poultry and meats business, as well as higher net sales in the Company's third-party ocean freight services business due to higher rates.
Gross profit
for the third quarter of 2024 was $9.2 million compared with $6.3 million in the prior-year period. The increase in gross profit was primarily a result of higher per unit selling prices and lower per unit production costs in the Company's poultry and meats business. Gross margin increased to 18.2% compared with 14.2% in the prior-year period.
Cash Flows
Net cash provided by operating activities for the first nine months of 2024 was $187.2 million compared with $180.1 million in the prior-year period. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by higher net income during the first nine months of 2024, as well as proceeds received from the termination of the Company's interest rate swap. The increase was partially offset by the impact of working capital fluctuations, primarily related to inventory.
Long Term Debt
Long-term debt decreased to
$269.6 million at the end of the third quarter of 2024 from $401.0 million at the end of the third quarter of 2023, a decrease of approximately 33%.
Quarterly Cash Dividend
On October 29, 2024, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 per share, payable on December 6, 2024, to shareholders of record on November 14, 2024.

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, net, gain on disposal of property, plant and equipment, net, and subsidiary 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 asset impairment and other (credits) charges, net, gain on disposal of property, plant and equipment, net and subsidiary, 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 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.
