Key Highlights
Net Sales:
Q2 2025 Net sales increased 2% to $5,240.1 million, compared to $5,139.4 million in Q2 2024. Organic net sales increased 1%.
For the first six months, net sales essentially matched the same period last year, totaling $10,088.2 million.

Operating Profit:
Q2 2025 operating profit increased 33% to $1,077.9 million, compared to $811.8 million in Q2 2024. This was primarily due to a goodwill impairment charge in fiscal 2024, lower restructuring charges, lower input costs, and a favorable change in the mark-to-market valuation of certain commodity positions and grain inventories.
For the six-month period, operating profit increased 10% to $1,909.4 million.
