Cal-Maine Foods reports Q2 EPS $4.47 vs 35c last year

Reports Q2 revenue $954.7M vs $523.234M last year. Sherman Miller, president and chief executive officer of Cal-Maine Foods (CALM), stated, “Cal-Maine Foods delivered a very strong financial and operating performance in the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Robust demand for shell eggs resulted in a significant increase in dozens sold for the quarter, which included the seasonal boost leading up to the Thanksgiving holiday and sales from our latest acquisition completed in June. Our results also reflect higher market prices, which have continued to rise this fiscal year as supply levels of shell eggs have been restricted due to recent outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza (“HPAI”). Our team did an outstanding job in managing our production as well as making outside purchases in order to meet the needs of our valued customers. We were fortunate to have the ability to leverage our significant scale and benefit from recent acquisitions, which have helped support our production capacity in this challenging supply environment.”
