Jana Partners, which together with its strategic and operating partners owns more than 5% of Lamb Weston (LW), and is one of the company’s largest shareholders, issued the following statement: “Today’s disastrous financial results and decision to swap its CEO for another long-standing Lamb Weston executive complicit in its widespread operational and strategic debacles is just the latest stick in the eye from a Board that has completely failed shareholders. Enough is enough: Lamb Weston requires significant board change or, in its absence, should be sold.”
