THE J. M. SMUCKER COMPANY

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars and shares in millions, unless otherwise noted, except per share data)

Note 1: Basis of Presentation

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of The J. M. Smucker Company (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) have been prepared in accordance with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

Operating results for the nine months ended January 31, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending April 30, 2025. For further information, reference is made to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2024.

Note 2: Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. ASU 2024-03 will provide investors with more decision-useful information about an entity’s expenses by improving disclosures on income statement expenses. The amendments in this ASU will require public business entities to disclose disaggregated information about specific categories underlying certain income statement expense line items. It will be effective for our annual period beginning May 1, 2027, and interim periods beginning May 1, 2028, with the option to early adopt at any time prior to the effective dates on either a prospective or retrospective basis. We do not anticipate any impact to our financial statements upon adoption and are currently evaluating the impacts of the standard on our disclosures.

In March 2024, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) adopted the final rule under SEC Release Nos. 33-11275 and 34-99678, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors; however, in April 2024, the SEC stayed implementation of the final rule pending the outcome of a judicial review, and in February 2025, the SEC requested that litigation be paused so that it can determine the appropriate next steps. If the rules become effective, they would require registrants to provide certain climate-related information in their registration statements and annual reports. The rules would require the disclosure of significant effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions, as well as amounts related to carbon offsets and renewable energy credits or certificates, in the audited financial statements in certain circumstances. Disclosure of the actual and potential material impacts of any identified climate-related risks on the registrant’s strategy, business model, and outlook would also be required, along with the process used to identify, assess, and manage these risks. In addition, the rules would require disclosure of material climate-related targets or goals, material Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions, and the methodology used to calculate those emissions. We do not anticipate any impact to our financial statements if the rules are adopted and continue to evaluate the impacts on our disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 will improve the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures to better assess how operations and related tax risks affect tax rates and future cash flows on an interim and annual basis. It will be effective for us on May 1, 2025, and can be adopted either on a prospective or retrospective basis. We do not anticipate any impact to our financial statements upon adoption and are currently evaluating the impacts of the standard on our disclosures.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. ASU 2023-07 will improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses on an interim and annual basis. It will be effective for our annual period beginning May 1, 2024, and interim periods beginning May 1, 2025, with the option to early adopt at any time prior to the effective dates and will require adoption on a retrospective basis. We do not anticipate any impact to our financial statements upon adoption and are currently evaluating the impacts of the standard on our disclosures.

Note 3: Acquisition

On November 7, 2023, we completed a cash and stock transaction to acquire Hostess Brands, Inc. (“Hostess Brands”). The total purchase consideration in connection with the acquisition was $5.4 billion, which reflects an exchange offer of all outstanding shares of Hostess Brands common stock at a price of $34.25 per share, consisting of $30.00 in cash and 0.03002 shares of our common shares, based on the closing stock price on September 8, 2023, that were exchanged for each share of Hostess Brands common stock as of the transaction date.

The purchase price included the issuance of approximately 4.0 million of our common shares to Hostess Brands’ shareholders, valued at $450.2, as discussed in Note 17: Common Shares. In addition, we paid $3.9 billion in cash, net of cash acquired, and assumed $991.0 of debt from Hostess Brands and $67.8 of an other debt-like item, reflecting consideration transferred for the cash payment of Hostess Brands’ employee equity awards. New debt of $5.0 billion was borrowed, consisting of $3.5 billion in Senior Notes, an $800.0 senior unsecured delayed-draw Term Loan Credit Agreement (“Term Loan”), and $700.0 of short-term borrowings under our commercial paper program to partially fund the transaction and pay off the debt assumed as part of the acquisition. For additional information on the financing associated with this transaction, refer to Note 9: Debt and Financing Arrangements.

Hostess Brands is a manufacturer and marketer of sweet baked goods brands and included Hostess® Donettes®, Twinkies®, CupCakes, DingDongs®, Zingers®, CoffeeCakes, HoHos®, Mini Muffins, and Fruit Pies, and the Voortman® brand at the acquisition date. In addition to its headquarters in Lenexa, Kansas, the transaction included six manufacturing facilities located in Emporia, Kansas; Burlington, Ontario; Chicago, Illinois; Columbus, Georgia; Indianapolis, Indiana; and Arkadelphia, Arkansas, a distribution facility in Edgerton, Kansas, and a commercial center of excellence in Chicago, Illinois.

The transaction was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting, and accordingly, the results of Hostess Brands operations, including net sales of $278.6 and $927.8 and operating losses of $1,021.6 and $1,180.8, are included within the Sweet Baked Snacks segment for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2025, respectively. The operating loss for the nine months ended January 31, 2025, includes a $794.3 pre-tax impairment charge related to the goodwill of the Sweet Baked Snacks reporting unit, a $208.2 pre-tax impairment charge related to the Hostess brand indefinite-lived trademark, a $42.6 pre-tax loss on the Sweet Baked Snacks value brand disposal group classified as held for sale during the third quarter of 2025, a $268.4 pre-tax loss on the disposal of the Voortman business, and excludes special project costs related to transaction and integration costs recognized within the segment. For additional information, refer to Note 4: Divestitures and Note 8: Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.

The final purchase price was allocated to the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. We determined the estimated fair values based on independent appraisals, discounted cash flow analyses, quoted market prices, and estimates made by management. The purchase price exceeded the estimated fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired, and, as such, the excess was allocated to goodwill.

Table of Contents

The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date.


Assets acquired:
Cash and cash equivalents	$	135.0
Trade receivables – net	181.1
Inventories	66.0
Other current assets	6.0
Property, plant, and equipment – net	534.5
Operating lease right-of-use assets	17.2
Goodwill	2,446.8
Other intangible assets – net	3,038.6
Other noncurrent assets	43.2
Total assets acquired	$	6,468.4
Liabilities assumed:
Accounts payable	$	67.3

Other current liabilities	249.0
Deferred income taxes	639.4
Noncurrent operating lease liabilities	14.5
Other noncurrent liabilities	1.4
Total liabilities assumed	971.6
Net assets acquired	$	5,496.8

As a result of the acquisition, we recognized a total of $2.4 billion of goodwill within the Sweet Baked Snacks segment. Of the total goodwill, $196.6 was deductible for tax purposes at the acquisition date, of which $170.3 remains deductible as of January 31, 2025. The goodwill recognized at acquisition represented the value we expected to achieve through the implementation of operational synergies and growth opportunities as we integrate Hostess Brands into our Company. During the third quarter of 2025, we recognized total pre-tax impairment charges of $1.0 billion, of which $794.3 and $208.2 related to the goodwill of the Sweet Baked Snacks reporting unit and the Hostess brand indefinite-lived trademark, respectively. The remaining goodwill and indefinite-lived trademarks resulting from the acquisition remain susceptible to future impairment charges, as the carrying values approximate estimated fair values due to the impairment charges recognized during the third quarter of 2025 and being recently acquired. Any significant adverse change in our near or long-term projections or macroeconomic conditions would result in future impairment charges. For additional information, refer to Note 8: Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.

The following table summarizes the purchase price allocated to the identifiable intangible assets acquired.


Intangible assets with finite lives:
Customer and contractual relationships (25-year useful life)	$	1,238.5
Non-competition agreements (varying useful lives)	38.0
Trademarks (5-year useful life)	9.9
Intangible assets with indefinite lives:
Trademarks	$	1,752.2
Total intangible assets	$	3,038.6

The annual amortization expense for the finite-lived intangible assets based on the purchase price allocation is $71.6.

Table of Contents

Hostess Brands’ results of operations are included in our condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of the transaction within our Sweet Baked Snacks segment. If the transaction had occurred on May 1, 2022, unaudited pro forma consolidated results for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2024, would have been as follows:


	Three Months Ended January 31, 2024		Nine Months Ended January 31, 2024
Net sales	$	2,253.2	$	6,707.1
Net income (loss)	162.7		508.5
Net income (loss) per common share – assuming dilution	1.53		4.78

The unaudited pro forma consolidated results are based on our historical financial statements and those of Hostess Brands and do not necessarily indicate the results of operations that would have resulted had the acquisition been completed at the beginning of the applicable period presented. The most significant pro forma adjustments relate to interest expense associated with acquisition-related financing, the elimination of nonrecurring acquisition-related costs incurred prior to the close of the transaction, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and depreciation of acquired property, plant, and equipment. The unaudited pro forma consolidated results do not give effect to the synergies of the acquisition and are not indicative of the results of operations in future periods.

Note 4: Divestitures

On January 31, 2025, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell certain Sweet Baked Snacks value brands to JTM Foods, LLC (“JTM”). We expect the transaction to close during the fourth quarter of 2025. The transaction includes certain trademarks and licenses, a manufacturing facility in Chicago, Illinois, and approximately 400 employees who support the business. Under our ownership, these Sweet Baked Snacks value brands generated net sales of approximately $30.0 in 2024, which represents a partial year of net sales reported in the Sweet Baked Snacks segment results following the acquisition of Hostess Brands on November 7, 2023. The transaction is valued at approximately $40.0, subject to a working capital adjustment. As of January 31, 2025, the disposal group met the criteria to be classified as held for sale, and as a result, a valuation allowance was established to reflect the fair value of the disposal group less costs to sell, which was based on the expected proceeds and the estimated carrying value of the net assets to be disposed. The valuation allowance was included within assets held for sale – net in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, and the estimated pre-tax loss on the disposal group was included within loss (gain) on divestitures – net in the Condensed Statement of Consolidated Income and Condensed Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows.

The following table summarizes the net assets held for sale at January 31, 2025, inclusive of a valuation allowance, reflecting the fair value less costs to sell.

Under our ownership, the Voortman business generated net sales of approximately $65.0 in 2024, which represents a partial year of net sales reported in the Sweet Baked Snacks segment

results following the acquisition of Hostess Brands on November 7, 2023. Net proceeds from the divestiture were $290.5, net of a preliminary working capital adjustment and cash transaction costs. During the second quarter of 2025, the disposal group met the criteria to be classified as held for sale, and as a result, an estimated pre-tax loss of $260.8 was recognized within loss (gain) on divestitures – net in the Condensed Statement of Consolidated Income and Condensed Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows. Upon close of the transaction during the third quarter of 2025, the pre-tax loss was adjusted to $268.4, reflecting the fair value of the disposal group as of the transaction date.

On January 2, 2024, we sold the Canada condiment business to TreeHouse Foods, Inc. (“TreeHouse Foods”). The transaction included Bick’s® pickles, Habitant® pickled beets, Woodman’s® horseradish, and McLarens® pickled onions brands, inclusive of certain trademarks. Under our ownership, these brands generated net sales of $43.8 in 2024, which were included in the International operating segment. Final net proceeds from the divestiture were $25.3, inclusive of a working capital adjustment and cash transaction costs, resulting in a final pre-tax loss of $5.7, of which $5.2 was recognized during the second quarter of 2024, as the disposal group met the criteria to be classified as held for sale, and a valuation allowance was established to reflect the fair value of the disposal group less costs to sell.

Upon close of the transaction during the third quarter of 2024, the pre-tax loss was adjusted to $5.7, reflecting the fair value of the disposal group as of the transaction date.

On November 1, 2023, we sold the Sahale Snacks® business to Second Nature. The transaction included products sold under the Sahale Snacks brand, inclusive of certain trademarks and licensing agreements, a leased manufacturing facility in Seattle, Washington, and approximately 100 employees who supported the brand. Under our ownership, the Sahale Snacks brand generated net sales of $24.1 in 2024, primarily included in the U.S. Retail Frozen Handheld and Spreads segment. Final net proceeds from the divestiture were $31.6, inclusive of a working capital adjustment and cash transaction costs, resulting in a final pre-tax loss of $6.7, of which $6.8 was recognized during the second quarter of 2024, as the disposal group met the criteria to be classified as held for sale, and a valuation allowance was established to reflect the fair value of the disposal group less costs to sell.

Final net proceeds from the divestiture were $1.2 billion, consisting of $683.9 in cash, net of a working capital adjustment and cash transaction costs, and approximately 5.4 million shares of Post common stock, valued at $491.6 at the close of the transaction. We recognized a pre-tax loss of $1.0 billion upon completion of this transaction during 2023. During the first half of 2024, we finalized the working capital adjustment and transaction costs, which resulted in an immaterial adjustment to the pre-tax loss. Furthermore, during the first quarter of 2024, we entered into equity forward derivative transactions under an agreement with an unrelated third-party to facilitate the forward sale of the Post common stock. All 5.4 million shares of Post common stock were settled for $466.3 under the equity forward contract on November 15, 2023. For additional information, see Note 11: Derivative Financial Instruments.

Note 5: Special Project Costs

Special project costs consist primarily of employee-related costs and other transition and termination costs related to certain divestiture, acquisition, integration, and restructuring activities. Employee-related costs include severance, retention bonuses, and relocation costs. Severance costs are generally recognized when deemed probable and reasonably estimable, retention bonuses are recognized over the estimated future service period of the impacted employees, and relocation costs are expensed as incurred. Other transition and termination costs include fixed asset-related charges, contract and lease termination costs, professional fees, and other miscellaneous expenditures associated with divestiture, acquisition, integration, and restructuring activities. With the exception of accelerated depreciation, these costs are expensed as incurred. These special project costs are reported in cost of products sold, other special project costs, other debt gains (charges) – net, and other income (expense) – net in the Condensed Statements of Consolidated Income and are not allocated to segment profit. The obligation related to employee separation costs is included in other current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Divestiture Costs: Total divestiture costs incurred to date related to the divested Sahale Snacks and Canada condiment businesses were $7.2, which included $4.3 and $2.9 of employee-related and other transition and termination costs, respectively, all of which were cash charges. We incurred divestiture costs of $1.3 and $1.7 during the three and nine months ended January 31, 2025, respectively, primarily consisting of employee-related costs. As of January 31, 2025, we have incurred the majority of the anticipated costs related to these divestitures and expect minimal costs to be incurred during the remainder of 2025. The obligation related to severance and retention bonuses was $2.5 at April 30, 2024 and was fully satisfied as of January 31, 2025.

Furthermore, we identified opportunities to address certain distribution inefficiencies, as a result of the recent divestitures. We anticipate incurring approximately $12.0 of costs related to these efforts, consisting primarily of other transition and termination charges. The majority of these costs are expected to be cash charges and incurred by the end of 2026, with approximately half of the costs expected to be recognized in 2025. We have recognized total cumulative costs of $3.1, of which $2.1 and $3.0 were recognized during the three and nine months ended January 31, 2025, respectively, primarily consisting of other transition and termination costs. For additional information, see Note 4: Divestitures.

The following table summarizes our integration costs incurred related to the acquisition of Hostess Brands.

Transaction costs	$	—	$	—	$	99.0
Employee-related costs	2.5		9.5		42.9
Other transition and termination costs	5.3		25.4		40.4
Total integration costs	$	7.8	$	34.9	$	182.3

Cumulative noncash charges incurred through January 31, 2025, were $16.4 and include $1.7 and $13.2 during the three and nine months ended January 31, 2025, respectively, which primarily consist of accelerated depreciation. Transaction costs primarily reflect equity compensation payouts, legal fees, and fees related to a 364-day senior unsecured Bridge Term Loan Credit Facility (“Bridge Loan”) that provided committed financing for the acquisition of Hostess Brands. Other transition and termination costs primarily consist of contract termination charges, accelerated depreciation, and consulting fees. We anticipate the remaining integration costs will be incurred by the end of 2026 and are expected to be split between employee-related and other transition and termination costs. The obligation related to severance and retention bonuses was $10.8 and $28.0 at January 31, 2025, and April 30, 2024, respectively. For additional information, see Note 3: Acquisition.

Note 6: Reportable Segments

We operate in one industry: the manufacturing and marketing of food and beverage products. We have four reportable segments: U.S. Retail Coffee, U.S. Retail Frozen Handheld and Spreads, U.S. Retail Pet Foods, and Sweet Baked Snacks. The presentation of International and Away From Home represents a combination of all other operating segments that are not individually reportable.

The U.S. Retail Coffee segment primarily includes the domestic sales of Folgers®, Dunkin’®, and Café Bustelo® branded coffee; the U.S. Retail Frozen Handheld and Spreads segment primarily includes the domestic sales of Uncrustables®, Jif®, and Smucker’s® branded products; the U.S. Retail Pet Foods segment primarily includes the domestic sales of Meow Mix®, Milk-Bone®, Pup-Peroni®, and Canine Carry Outs® branded products; and the Sweet Baked Snacks segment primarily includes all domestic and foreign sales of Hostess branded products in all channels. With the exception of Sweet Baked Snacks products, International and Away From Home includes the sale of all products that are distributed in foreign countries through retail channels, as well as domestically and in foreign countries through foodservice distributors and operators (e.g., healthcare operators, restaurants, educational institutions, offices, lodging and gaming establishments, and convenience stores).

Segment profit represents net sales, less direct and allocable operating expenses, and is consistent with the way in which we manage our segments. However, we do not represent that the segments, if operated independently, would report operating profit equal to the segment profit set forth below, as segment profit excludes certain expenses such as amortization expense and impairment charges related to intangible assets, gains and losses on divestitures, the net change in cumulative unallocated gains and losses on commodity and foreign currency exchange derivative activities (“change in net cumulative unallocated derivative gains and losses”), special project costs, as well as corporate administrative expenses.

Commodity and foreign currency exchange derivative gains and losses are reported in unallocated derivative gains and losses outside of segment operating results until the related inventory is sold. At that time, we reclassify the hedge gains and losses from unallocated derivative gains and losses to segment profit, allowing our segments to realize the economic effect of the hedge without experiencing any mark-to-market volatility. We would expect that any gain or loss in the estimated fair value of the derivatives would generally be offset by a change in the estimated fair value of the underlying exposures.

Note 7: Earnings per Share

We computed net income (loss) per common share (“basic earnings per share”) under the two-class method for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, due to certain unvested common shares that contained non-forfeitable rights to dividends (i.e., participating securities) during these periods. Further, we computed net income (loss) per common share – assuming dilution (“diluted earnings per share”) under the two-class and treasury stock methods to determine the method that was most dilutive, in accordance with FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. For the three and nine months ended January 31, 2024, the computation of diluted earnings per share was more dilutive under the treasury stock method, as compared to the two-class method. Therefore, the treasury stock method was used. For the three and nine months ended January 31, 2025, we recognized a net loss, and as a result, excluded the anti-dilutive effect of stock-based awards from the computation of diluted earnings per share.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share under the two-class method.

We review goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually on February 1, and more often if indicators of impairment exist.

During the second quarter of 2025, the disposal group for the Voortman business was classified as held for sale, and as a result, a portion of the goodwill within the Sweet Baked Snacks reporting unit was allocated to the disposal group based on a preliminary relative fair value analysis. There were no indicators of impairment for the remaining goodwill of the Sweet Baked Snacks reporting unit as of October 31, 2024.

During the third quarter of 2025, we completed our long-range planning process, following the integration of the Hostess Brands business and operations, resulting in a decline in forecasted net sales and segment profit for the Sweet Baked Snacks segment. The declines in forecast are in line with the underperformance during the current fiscal year for both net sales and segment profit, primarily driven by increased inflationary pressures and diminished consumer discretionary income, which has led to slower than anticipated recovery in the sweet baked goods category. In addition, we have not met expectations from a distribution, merchandising, and competitive standpoint, which has resulted in lost market share.

As a result of the decline in both actual and forecasted net sales, as compared to the long-term projections utilized in the purchase price allocation, in conjunction with the narrow differences between estimated fair value and carrying value as of April 30, 2024, we performed an interim impairment analysis on the goodwill of the Sweet Baked Snacks reporting unit and the Hostess brand indefinite-lived trademark. Furthermore, on December 2, 2024, we divested the Voortman business, and as a result, we disposed $251.1 of goodwill within the Sweet Baked Snacks reporting unit. The amount of goodwill allocated to the disposal group was determined based on a relative fair value analysis, utilizing the updated long-range plan. The interim impairment analysis was completed following the disposal of goodwill allocated to the Voortman business. We recognized total pre-tax impairment charges of $1.0 billion during the third quarter of 2025, of which $794.3 and $208.2 related to the goodwill of the Sweet Baked Snacks reporting unit and the Hostess brand indefinite-lived trademark, respectively, to the extent the carrying values exceeded the estimated fair values. These charges were included as noncash charges in our Condensed Statement of Consolidated Income and Condensed Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows.

The goodwill and indefinite-lived trademark within the Sweet Baked Snacks segment remain susceptible to future impairment charges, as the carrying values approximate estimated fair values due to the impairment charges recognized during the third quarter of 2025 and the recent acquisition of Hostess Brands. Any significant adverse change in our near or long-term projections or macroeconomic conditions would result in future impairment charges for the Sweet Baked Snacks segment.

There were no other indicators of impairment, and as a result, we do not believe that any of our remaining reporting units or material indefinite-lived intangible assets are more likely than not impaired as of January 31, 2025.

In December 2024, we commenced cash tender offers to purchase up to $300.0 aggregate purchase price, not including accrued and unpaid interest, of certain outstanding Senior Notes. As a result, an aggregate principle amount of $122.5 of our 2.750% Senior Notes due 2041 and $138.8 of our 3.550% Senior Notes due 2050 were tendered and accepted, and $194.1 of our 2.125% Senior Notes due 2032 were tendered, of which $135.5 was accepted. We recorded a net gain on the extinguishment of debt of $30.3 during the three and nine months ended January 31, 2025, included within other debt gains (charges) – net on the Condensed Statement of Consolidated Income. Components of the net gain include debt carrying value write-off of $335.9 (inclusive of terminated interest rate contract, debt issuance costs, and discounts), net of the reacquisition price of $300.0, debt tender fees of $1.1, and a loss on the associated reverse treasury locks of $4.5. For additional information, see Note 11: Derivative Financial Instruments.

In October 2023, we completed an offering of $3.5 billion in Senior Notes due November 15, 2028, November 15, 2033, November 15, 2043, and November 15, 2053. The Senior Notes included $31.8 of capitalized debt issuance costs and $15.0 of offering discounts to be amortized to interest expense – net in the Condensed Statements of Consolidated Income over the time period for which the debt is outstanding. The net proceeds from the offering were used to partially finance the acquisition of Hostess Brands and pay off the debt assumed as part of the acquisition.

In September 2023, we entered into a Term Loan with a group of banks for an unsecured $800.0 term facility. In November 2023, the full amount was drawn on the Term Loan to partially finance the acquisition of Hostess Brands and to pay off the debt assumed as part of the acquisition, as discussed in Note 3: Acquisition. As of April 30, 2024, the $800.0 Term Loan was prepaid in full.

In September 2023, we entered into a commitment letter for a $5.2 billion Bridge Loan that provided committed financing for the acquisition of Hostess Brands, as disclosed in Note 3: Acquisition. No balances were drawn against this facility, as the commitment letter was terminated after completion of the Senior Notes offering and drawing on the Term Loan. Included in other debt gains (charges) – net on the Condensed Statement of Consolidated Income at January 31, 2024 was $19.5 related to financing fees associated with the Bridge Loan.

We have available a $2.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility with a group of 11 banks that matures in August 2026. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest on the prevailing U.S. Prime Rate, Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), Euro Interbank Offered Rate, or Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average, based on our election. Interest is payable either on a quarterly basis or at the end of the borrowing term. We did not have a balance outstanding under the revolving credit facility at January 31, 2025, or April 30, 2024.

We participate in a commercial paper program under which we can issue short-term, unsecured commercial paper not to exceed $2.0 billion at any time. The commercial paper program is backed by our revolving credit facility and reduces what we can borrow under the revolving credit facility by the amount of commercial paper outstanding. Commercial paper is used as a continuing source of short-term financing for general corporate purposes. As of January 31, 2025, and April 30, 2024, we had $462.0 and $591.0 of short-term borrowings outstanding, respectively, which were issued under our commercial paper program at weighted-average interest rates of 4.55 and 5.48 percent, respectively.

Interest paid totaled $126.9 and $20.6 for the three months ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $341.8 and $94.2 for the nine months ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. This differs from interest expense due to the timing of interest payments, capitalized interest, the effect of interest rate contracts, amortization of debt issuance costs and discounts, and the payment of other debt fees.

Our debt instruments contain covenant restrictions, including an interest coverage ratio. As of January 31, 2025, we are in compliance with all covenants.

In 2021, we transferred obligations related to our Canadian defined benefit pension plan to an insurance company through the purchase of an irrevocable group annuity contract (the “Canadian Buy-Out Contract”). The group annuity contract was purchased using assets from the pension trust. During the first quarter of 2024, we received corporate approval to proceed with distribution of the surplus that remains within the Canadian defined benefit pension plan. As a result, we recognized a noncash pre-tax settlement charge of $3.2 related to the acceleration of prior service cost for the portion of the plan surplus to be allocated to plan members, which is subject to regulatory approval before a payout can be made. The settlement charge was included within other income (expense) – net in the Condensed Statement of Consolidated Income. We did not recognize any charges related to the Canadian Buy-Out Contract during the three and nine months ended January 31, 2025.

During the first nine months of 2025, we made contributions of $1.0 to our U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plans. Additionally, we made direct benefit payments of $2.7 and $2.8 for the nine months ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Note 11: Derivative Financial Instruments

We are exposed to market risks, such as changes in commodity prices, foreign currency exchange rates, and interest rates. To manage the volatility related to these exposures, we enter into various derivative transactions. We have policies in place that define acceptable instrument types we may enter into and establish controls to limit our market risk exposure. By policy, we do not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes.

Commodity Derivatives: We enter into commodity derivatives to manage the price volatility and reduce the variability of future cash flows related to anticipated inventory purchases of key raw materials, notably green coffee, wheat, soybean meal, corn, and edible oils. We also enter into commodity derivatives to manage price risk for energy input costs, including diesel fuel and natural gas. Our derivative instruments generally have maturities of less than one year.

We do not qualify commodity derivatives for hedge accounting treatment, and as a result, the derivative gains and losses are immediately recognized in earnings. Although we do not perform the assessments required to achieve hedge accounting for derivative positions, we believe all of our commodity derivatives are economic hedges of our risk exposure.

Table of Contents

The commodities hedged have a high inverse correlation to price changes of the derivative instrument. Thus, we would expect that over time any gain or loss in the estimated fair value of its derivatives would generally be offset by an increase or decrease in the estimated fair value of the underlying exposures.

Foreign Currency Exchange Derivatives: We utilize foreign currency derivatives to manage the effect of foreign currency exchange fluctuations on future cash payments primarily related to purchases of certain raw materials and finished goods. The contracts generally have maturities of less than one year. We do not qualify instruments used to manage foreign currency exchange exposures for hedge accounting treatment.

Interest Rate Derivatives: From time to time, we utilize derivative instruments to manage interest rate risk associated with anticipated debt transactions, as well as to manage changes in the fair value of our long-term debt. At the inception of an interest rate contract, the instrument is evaluated and documented for qualifying hedge accounting treatment. If the contract is designated as a cash flow hedge, the mark-to-market gains or losses on the contract are deferred and included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and generally reclassified to interest expense in the period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. If the contract is designated as a fair value hedge, the contract is recognized at fair value on the balance sheet and changes in the fair value are recognized in interest expense. Generally, changes in the fair value of the contract are equal to changes in the fair value of the underlying debt and have no net impact on earnings.

In November 2024, we entered into reverse treasury locks to manage our exposure to interest rate fluctuations related to the tender offers. In December 2024, concurrent with the pricing of the tender offers, we settled the reverse treasury locks and realized a net loss of $4.5 during the three months ended January 31, 2025, recognized in earnings within other debt gains (charges) – net on the Condensed Statement of Consolidated Income, netting with the gain on extinguishment associated with the tender offers. For additional information, see Note 9: Debt and Financing Arrangements.

Equity Forward Derivative: During the first quarter of 2024, we began entering into equity forward derivative transactions under an agreement with an unrelated third-party to facilitate the forward sale of the Post common stock. We did not qualify the forward sale derivative contract for hedge accounting treatment, and as a result, derivative gains and losses associated with the economic hedge were immediately recognized in earnings within other income (expense) – net in the Condensed Statement of Consolidated Income, netting with the change in fair value of the underlying shares. All 5.4 million shares of Post common stock were hedged and later settled on November 15, 2023, for $466.3, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $5.4 during the year ended April 30, 2024, inclusive of a realized pre-tax loss of $28.2 and gain of $5.4 recognized during the three and nine months ended January 31, 2024, respectively. For additional information, see Note 4: Divestitures.

The following table presents the gross notional value of outstanding derivative contracts.

Table of Contents

We have elected to not offset fair value amounts recognized for our exchange-traded derivative instruments and our cash margin accounts executed with the same counterparty that are generally subject to enforceable netting agreements. We are required to maintain cash margin accounts in connection with funding the settlement of our open positions. Our cash margin accounts represented collateral pledged of $8.5 and collateral received of $1.9 at January 31, 2025, and April 30, 2024, respectively, and are included in other current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The change in the cash margin accounts is included in other – net, investing activities in the Condensed Statements of Consolidated Cash Flows. In the event of default and immediate net settlement of all of our open positions with individual counterparties, all of our derivative liabilities would be fully offset by either our derivative asset positions or margin accounts based on the net asset or liability position with our individual counterparties. Cash flows associated with the settlement of derivative instruments are classified in the same line item as the cash flows of the related hedged item, which is within operating activities in the Condensed Statements of Consolidated Cash Flows.

Economic Hedges

The following table presents the net gains and losses recognized in cost of products sold in the Condensed Statements of Consolidated Income on derivatives not designated as hedging instruments.


	Three Months Ended January 31,				Nine Months Ended January 31,
	2025		2024		2025		2024
Derivative gains (losses) on commodity contracts	$	60.1	$	(6.1)	$	50.7	$	(3.3)
Derivative gains (losses) on foreign currency exchange contracts	3.8		(3.3)		5.5		(0.7)
Total derivative gains (losses) recognized in cost of products sold	$	63.9	$	(9.4)	$	56.2	$	(4.0)

Commodity and foreign currency exchange derivative gains and losses are reported in unallocated derivative gains and losses outside of segment operating results until the related inventory is sold. At that time, we reclassify the hedge gains and losses from unallocated derivative gains and losses to segment profit, allowing our segments to realize the economic effect of the hedge without experiencing any mark-to-market volatility. The following table presents the net change in cumulative unallocated derivative gains and losses.


	Three Months Ended January 31,				Nine Months Ended January 31,
	2025		2024		2025		2024
Net derivative gains (losses) recognized and classified as unallocated	$	63.9	$	(9.4)	$	56.2	$	(4.0)
Less: Net derivative gains (losses) reclassified to segment operating profit	3.9		(4.2)		14.5		17.1
Change in net cumulative unallocated derivative gains and losses	$	60.0	$	(5.2)	$	41.7	$	(21.1)

The net cumulative unallocated derivative gains were $64.3 and $22.6 at January 31, 2025, and April 30, 2024, respectively.

Cash Flow Hedges

In November 2023, we terminated interest rate contracts for $42.5 concurrent with the payment of the debt assumed with the acquisition of Hostess Brands. The interest rate contracts were designated as cash flow hedges and were used to manage exposure to changes in cash flows associated with variable rate debt.

In 2020, we terminated all outstanding interest rate contracts concurrent with the pricing of the Senior Notes due March 15, 2030 and March 15, 2050. The contracts were designated as cash flow hedges and were used to manage our exposure to interest rate volatility associated with the anticipated debt financing. The termination resulted in a pre-tax loss of $239.8, which was deferred and included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and is being amortized as interest expense over the life of the debt.

Table of Contents

The following table presents information on the pre-tax gains and losses recognized on all contracts previously designated as cash flow hedges.


	Three Months Ended January 31,				Nine Months Ended January 31,
	2025		2024		2025		2024
Gains (losses) recognized in other comprehensive income (loss)	$	—	$	—	$	—	$	—

Change in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)	$	59.9	$	3.3	$	66.7	$	10.1

(A)Interest expense – net, as presented in the Condensed Statements of Consolidated Income was $95.4 and $99.8 for the three months ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $294.5 and $167.0 for the nine months ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The reclassification includes terminated contracts which were designated as cash flow hedges.

(B)Other debt gains (charges) – net, as presented in the Condensed Statement of Consolidated Income was $30.3 for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2025. The reclassification is related to the debt extinguishment due to the tender offers, as discussed in Note 9: Debt and Financing Arrangements.

Included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) at January 31, 2025, and April 30, 2024, were deferred net pre-tax losses of $120.4 and $187.1, respectively, related to the terminated interest rate contracts. The related net tax benefit recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) at January 31, 2025, and April 30, 2024, was $28.3 and $44.0, respectively. Approximately $12.5 of the net pre-tax loss will be recognized over the next 12 months related to the terminated interest rate contracts.

Note 12: Other Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

Financial instruments, other than derivatives, that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash investments, short-term borrowings, and trade receivables. The carrying value of these financial instruments approximates fair value. Our remaining financial instruments, with the exception of long-term debt, are recognized at estimated fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The following table provides information on the carrying amounts and fair values of our financial instruments.


	January 31, 2025				April 30, 2024
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Marketable securities and other investments	$	21.2	$	21.2	$	22.1	$	22.1
Derivative financial instruments – net	25.0		25.0		28.2		28.2

Total long-term debt	(7,385.4)		(7,514.1)		(7,773.0)		(7,652.9)

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Valuation techniques are based on observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect readily obtainable data from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions.

Table of Contents

The following tables summarize the fair values and the levels within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall for our financial instruments.

Total financial instruments measured at fair value	$	(7,620.8)	$	18.2	$	—	$	(7,602.6)

(A)Marketable securities and other investments consist of funds maintained for the payment of benefits associated with nonqualified retirement plans. The funds include equity securities listed in active markets, municipal obligations valued by a third-party using valuation techniques that utilize inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data, and money market funds with maturities of three months or less. Based on the short-term nature of these money market funds, carrying value approximates fair value. As of January 31, 2025, our municipal obligations are scheduled to mature as follows: $0.2 in 2025, $0.8 in 2026, $3.9 in 2027, $0.4 in 2028, $3.3 in 2029, and the remaining $7.3 in 2030 and beyond.

(B)Level 1 commodity and foreign currency exchange derivatives are valued using quoted market prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 2 commodity and foreign currency exchange derivatives are valued using quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets. For additional information, see Note 11: Derivative Financial Instruments.

(C)Long-term debt is composed of public Senior Notes, which are traded in an active secondary market and valued using quoted prices. For additional information, see Note 9: Debt and Financing Arrangements.

During the third quarter of 2025, we recognized nonrecurring fair value adjustments of $1.0 billion, of which $794.3 and $208.2 related to the goodwill of the Sweet Baked Snacks reporting unit and the Hostess brand indefinite-lived trademark, respectively. These adjustments were included as noncash charges in our Condensed Statement of Consolidated Income. We utilized Level 3 inputs based on management’s best estimates and assumptions to estimate the fair value of the reporting unit and the indefinite-lived trademark. For additional information, see Note 8: Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.

As of January 31, 2025, the disposal group of certain Sweet Baked Snacks value brands met the criteria to be classified as held for sale, and as a result, a valuation allowance of $42.6 was established to reflect the fair value of the disposal group less costs to sell, which was based on the expected proceeds and the estimated carrying value of the net assets to be disposed. The estimated pre-tax loss on the disposal group was included within loss (gain) on divestitures – net in the Condensed Statement of Consolidated Income. We utilized Level 3 inputs based on management’s best estimates and assumptions to estimate the fair value of the disposal group. Furthermore, the valuation allowance for the disposal group included the impact of an allocation of $26.3 of goodwill from the Sweet Baked Snacks segment, which was determined based on a relative fair value analysis. For additional information, see Note 4: Divestitures.

Table of Contents

During the second quarter of 2025, the disposal group for the Voortman business was classified as held for sale, and as a result, an estimated pre-tax loss of $260.8 was recognized within loss (gain) on divestitures – net in the Condensed Statement of Consolidated Income. Upon close of the transaction during the third quarter of 2025, the pre-tax loss was adjusted to $268.4, reflecting the fair value of the disposal group as of the transaction date. We utilized Level 3 inputs based on management’s best estimates and assumptions to estimate the fair value of the disposal group. Furthermore, the pre-tax loss for the divested Voortman business included the impact of an allocation of $251.1 of goodwill from the Sweet Baked Snacks segment, which was determined based on a relative fair value analysis. For additional information, see Note 4: Divestitures and Note 8: Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.

Note 13: Leases

We lease certain warehouses, manufacturing facilities, office space, equipment, and vehicles, primarily through operating lease agreements. We have elected to not recognize leases with a term of 12 months or less in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Instead, we recognize the related lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Although the majority of our right-of-use asset and lease liability balances consist of leases with renewal options, these optional periods do not typically impact the lease term as we are not reasonably certain to exercise them. Certain leases also include termination provisions or options to purchase the leased property. Since we are not reasonably certain to exercise these types of options, minimum lease payments do not include any amounts related to these termination or purchase options. Our lease agreements generally do not contain residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants that are material.

We determine if an agreement is or contains a lease at inception by evaluating whether an identified asset exists that we control over the term of the arrangement. A lease commences when the lessor makes the identified asset available for our use. We generally account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Minimum lease payments do not include variable lease payments other than those that depend on an index or rate.

Because the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot be readily determined for the majority of our leases, we utilize our incremental borrowing rate to present value lease payments using information available at the lease commencement date. We consider our credit rating and the current economic environment in determining this collateralized rate.

The following table sets forth the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.


	January 31, 2025		April 30, 2024

Note 14: Income Taxes

Income taxes decreased $75.3, or 100 percent, during the three months ended January 31, 2025, as compared to the prior year. The effective income tax rate for the third quarter of 2025 varied from the U.S. statutory income tax rate of 21.0 percent primarily due to state income taxes and an unfavorable permanent impact associated with the goodwill impairment charge for the Sweet Baked Snacks reporting unit, partially offset by the reversal of a deferred tax liability upon completion of the sale of the Voortman Cookies Limited entity, and a favorable noncash deferred tax benefit associated with the integration of Hostess Brands into our Company. The effective income tax rate for the third quarter of 2024 varied from the U.S. statutory income tax rate of 21.0 percent primarily due to state income taxes and unfavorable tax impacts associated with the acquisition of Hostess Brands.

Income taxes decreased $32.3, or 18 percent, during the nine months ended January 31, 2025, as compared to the prior year. The effective income tax rate for the first nine months of 2025 varied from the U.S. statutory income tax rate of 21.0 percent primarily due to state income taxes and unfavorable permanent impacts associated with the goodwill impairment charge for the Sweet Baked Snacks reporting unit and the sale of the Voortman business, partially offset by the favorable noncash deferred tax benefit associated with the integration of Hostess Brands into our Company. The effective income tax rate for the first nine months of 2024 varied from the U.S. statutory income tax rate of 21.0 percent primarily due to state income taxes and unfavorable tax impacts associated with the acquisition of Hostess Brands, partially offset by a favorable tax impact of the sale of the Sahale Snacks business.

Within the next 12 months, it is reasonably possible that we could decrease our unrecognized tax benefits by an estimated $0.8, primarily as a result of the expiration of statute of limitation periods.

Note 15: Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The components of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), including the reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to net income (loss), are shown below.

Balance at January 31, 2024	$	(31.9)	$	(145.4)	$	(51.7)	$	1.6	$	(227.4)

(A)The reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is primarily composed of deferred gains (losses) related to terminated interest rate contracts which were reclassified to interest expense – net. In addition, a portion of the reclassification in 2025 was reclassified to other debt gains (charges) – net resulting from the extinguishment of debt from the tender offers. For additional information, see Note 11: Derivative Financial Instruments and Note 9: Debt and Financing Arrangements.

(B)The reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to other income (expense) – net is composed of settlement charges and amortization of net losses and prior service costs. For additional information, see Note 10: Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits.

Note 16: Contingencies

We, like other food manufacturers, are from time to time subject to various administrative, regulatory, and other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We are currently a defendant in a variety of such legal proceedings, and while we cannot predict with certainty the ultimate results of these proceedings or potential settlements associated with these or other matters, we have accrued losses for certain contingent liabilities that we have determined are probable and reasonably estimable at January 31, 2025. Based on the information known to date, with the exception of the matters discussed below, we do not believe the final outcome of these proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Class Action Lawsuits: We are defendants in a series of putative class action lawsuits that were transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri for coordinated pre-trial proceedings. The plaintiffs assert claims arising under various state laws for false advertising, consumer protection, deceptive and unfair trade practices, and similar statutes. Their claims are premised on allegations that we have misrepresented the number of servings that can be made from various canisters of Folgers coffee on the packaging for those products. The outcome and the financial impact of these cases, if any, cannot be predicted at this time. Accordingly, no loss contingency has been recorded for these matters as of January 31, 2025, as the likelihood of loss is not considered probable or reasonably estimable. However, if we are required to pay significant damages, our business and financial results could be adversely impacted, and sales of those products could suffer not only in these locations but elsewhere.

Product Recall: We are defendants in ongoing consumer litigation associated with a voluntary recall of select Jif peanut butter products initiated in May 2022. The outcome and financial impact of this litigation cannot be predicted at this time. Accordingly, no loss contingency has been recorded for these matters as of January 31, 2025, as the likelihood of loss is not considered probable or reasonably estimable.

Voortman Contingency: In December 2020, Hostess Brands asserted claims for indemnification against the sellers (the “Sellers”) under the terms of a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which Hostess Brands acquired Voortman Cookies Limited (“Voortman”). The claims were for damages arising out of alleged breaches by the Sellers of certain representations, warranties, and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement relating to periods prior to the closing of the acquisition. Hostess Brands also submitted claims relating to these alleged breaches under the representation and warranty insurance policy (“RWI”) that was purchased in connection with the acquisition. In the third quarter of calendar 2022, the RWI insurers paid Hostess Brands $42.5 CAD (the RWI coverage limit) (the “Proceeds”) related to these breaches. Per agreement with the RWI insurers, we will not be required to return the Proceeds under any circumstances.

On November 3, 2022, pursuant to the agreement with the RWI insurers, Voortman brought claims in the Ontario (Canada) Superior Court of Justice (the “Claim”), related to the breaches against certain of the Sellers. The Claim alleges the seller defendants made certain non-disclosures and misrepresentations to induce Hostess Brands to overpay for Voortman. We are seeking damages of $109.0 CAD representing the amount of the aggregate liability of the Sellers for indemnification under the Purchase Agreement, $5.0 CAD in punitive or aggravated damages, interest, proceedings fees, and any other relief the presiding court deems appropriate. A portion of any recovery will be shared with the RWI insurers. Although we believe that the Claim is meritorious, no assurance can be given as to whether we will recover all, or any part, of the amounts being pursued. We retained rights to the Claim upon the divestiture of the Voortman business in the third quarter of 2025.

Note 17: Common Shares

The following table sets forth common share information.


	January 31, 2025	April 30, 2024
Common shares authorized	300.0	300.0
Common shares outstanding	106.4	106.2
Treasury shares	44.1	44.3

Repurchase Program: During the nine months ended January 31, 2025, we did not repurchase any common shares under a repurchase plan authorized by the Board of Directors (the “Board”). As of January 31, 2025, approximately 1.1 million common shares remain available for repurchase pursuant to the Board’s authorizations.

On March 2, 2023, we entered into a share repurchase plan (the “10b5-1 Plan”) established in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act in connection with the remaining common shares authorized for repurchase by the Board, which was approximately 3.5 million common shares as of April 30, 2023. In accordance with the 10b5-1 Plan, our designated broker had

the authority to repurchase approximately 2.4 million common shares, which commenced upon the sale of certain pet food brands on April 28, 2023, and expired 45 calendar days after the closure of the transaction. During the first quarter of 2024, we repurchased approximately 2.4 million common shares for $362.8 under the 10b5-1 Plan. In accordance with The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, H.R. 5376 (the “Inflation Reduction Act”), a one percent excise tax was applied to share repurchases after December 31, 2022. As a result, an excise tax of $3.6 was accrued on the repurchased shares during the first quarter of 2024 and included within additional capital in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. An accrued excise tax of $6.7 was paid during the nine months ended January 31, 2025, which was related to the shares repurchased under the 10b5-1 Plan during 2023 and 2024.

All other share repurchases during the nine months ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, consisted of shares repurchased from stock plan recipients in lieu of cash payments.

Shares Issued: On November 7, 2023, we acquired Hostess Brands, and as a result, we issued approximately 4.0 million common shares valued at $450.2 in exchange for the outstanding shares of Hostess Brands common stock to partially fund the acquisition. The shares issued were based on each outstanding share of Hostess Brands common stock receiving $30.00 per share in cash and 0.03002 shares of our common shares, which represented a value of $4.25 based on the closing stock price of our common shares on September 8, 2023, the last trading day preceding September 11, 2023, the date on which the execution of the Hostess Brands merger agreement was publicly announced. For additional information on the acquisition of Hostess Brands, see Note 3: Acquisition.

Note 18: Supplier Financing Program

As part of ongoing efforts to maximize working capital, we work with our suppliers to optimize our terms and conditions, which includes the extension of payment terms. Payment terms with our suppliers, which we deem to be commercially reasonable, range from 0 to 180 days. We have an agreement with a third-party administrator to provide an accounts payable tracking system and facilitate a supplier financing program which allows participating suppliers the ability to monitor and voluntarily elect to sell our payment obligations to a designated third-party financial institution. Participating suppliers can sell one or more of our payment obligations at their sole discretion, and our rights and obligations to our suppliers are not impacted. We have no economic interest in a supplier’s decision to enter into these agreements. Our rights and obligations to our suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment terms, are not impacted by our suppliers’ decisions to sell amounts under these arrangements. However, our right to offset balances due from suppliers against our payment obligations is restricted by the agreement for those payment obligations that have been sold by our suppliers. The payment of these obligations is included in cash provided by operating activities in the Condensed Statements of Consolidated Cash Flows. Included in accounts payable in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of January 31, 2025, and April 30, 2024, were $315.1 and $384.9 of our outstanding payment obligations, respectively, that were elected and sold to a financial institution by participating suppliers. During the first nine months of 2025 and 2024, we paid $1,211.9 and $1,280.6, respectively, to a financial institution for payment obligations that were settled through the supplier financing program.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

(Dollars and shares in millions, unless otherwise noted, except per share data)

This discussion and analysis deals with comparisons of material changes in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2025 and 2024. All comparisons presented are to the corresponding period of the prior year, unless otherwise noted.

On January 31, 2025, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell certain Sweet Baked Snacks value brands to JTM. We expect the transaction to close during the fourth quarter of 2025. The transaction includes certain trademarks and licenses, the manufacturing facility in Chicago, Illinois, and approximately 400 employees who support the business. Under our ownership, these Sweet Baked Snacks value brands generated net sales of approximately $30.0 in 2024, which represents a partial year of net sales reported in the Sweet Baked Snacks segment results following the acquisition of Hostess Brands on November 7, 2023. The transaction is valued at approximately $40.0, subject to a working capital adjustment. As of January 31, 2025, the disposal group met the criteria to be classified as held for sale, and as a result, a valuation allowance was established to reflect the fair value of the disposal group less costs to sell, which was based on the expected proceeds and the estimated carrying value of the net assets to be disposed. The valuation allowance was included within assets held for sale – net in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, and the estimated pre-tax loss on the disposal group of $42.6 was included within loss (gain) on divestitures – net in the Condensed Statement of Consolidated Income and Condensed Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows.

On December 2, 2024, we sold the Voortman business to Second Nature. The transaction included products sold under the Voortman brand, inclusive of certain trademarks, a leased manufacturing facility in Burlington, Ontario, and approximately 300 employees who supported the business. Under our ownership, the Voortman business generated net sales of approximately $65.0 in 2024, which represents a partial year of net sales reported in the Sweet Baked Snacks segment results following the acquisition of Hostess Brands on November 7, 2023. Net proceeds from the divestiture were $290.5, net of a preliminary working capital adjustment and cash transaction costs. During the second quarter of 2025, the disposal group met the criteria to be classified as held for sale, and as a result, an estimated pre-tax loss of $260.8 was recognized within loss (gain) on divestitures – net in the Condensed Statement of Consolidated Income and Condensed Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows. Upon close of the transaction during the third quarter of 2025, the pre-tax loss was adjusted to $268.4, reflecting the fair value of the disposal group as of the transaction date.

On January 2, 2024, we sold the Canada condiment business to TreeHouse Foods. The transaction included Bick’s pickles, Habitant pickled beets, Woodman’s horseradish, and McLarens pickled onions brands, inclusive of certain trademarks. Under our ownership, these brands generated net sales of $43.8 in 2024, included in the International operating segment. Final net proceeds from the divestiture were $25.3, inclusive of a working capital adjustment and cash transaction costs, resulting in a final pre-tax loss of $5.7, of which $5.2 was recognized during the second quarter of 2024, as the disposal group met the criteria to be classified as held for sale, and a valuation allowance was established to reflect the fair value of the disposal group less costs to sell. The valuation allowance was included within loss (gain) on divestitures – net in the Condensed Statement of Consolidated Income and Condensed Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows. Upon close of the transaction during the third quarter of 2024, the pre-tax loss was adjusted to $5.7, reflecting the fair value of the disposal group as of the transaction date.

On November 7, 2023, we completed a cash and stock transaction to acquire Hostess Brands. The total purchase consideration in connection with the acquisition was $5.4 billion, which reflects an exchange offer of all outstanding shares of Hostess Brands common stock at a price of $34.25 per share, consisting of $30.00 in cash and 0.03002 shares of our common shares, based on the closing stock price on September 8, 2023, that were exchanged for each share of Hostess Brands common stock as of the transaction date. The purchase price included the issuance of approximately 4.0 million of our common shares to Hostess Brands’ shareholders, valued at $450.2. In addition, we paid $3.9 billion in cash, net of cash acquired, and assumed $991.0 of debt from Hostess Brands and $67.8 of an other debt-like item, reflecting consideration transferred for the cash payment of Hostess Brands’ employee equity awards. New debt of $5.0 billion was borrowed, consisting of $3.5 billion in Senior Notes, an $800.0 Term Loan, and $700.0 of short-term borrowings under our commercial paper program to partially fund the transaction and pay off the debt assumed as part of the acquisition. Hostess Brands is a manufacturer and marketer of sweet baked goods brands and included Hostess Donettes, Twinkies, CupCakes, DingDongs, Zingers, CoffeeCakes, HoHos, Mini Muffins, and Fruit Pies, and the Voortman brand at the acquisition date. In addition to its headquarters in Lenexa, Kansas, the transaction included six manufacturing facilities located in Emporia, Kansas; Burlington, Ontario; Chicago, Illinois; Columbus, Georgia; Indianapolis, Indiana; and Arkadelphia, Arkansas, a distribution facility in Edgerton, Kansas, and a commercial center of excellence in Chicago, Illinois. During the first nine months of 2025, the acquired business contributed net sales of $927.8. We anticipate cost synergies of approximately $100.0, which are expected to be achieved by the end of 2026. To date, we have achieved cost synergies of approximately $64.0, of which approximately $53.0 was achieved during the first nine months of 2025.

On November 1, 2023, we sold the Sahale Snacks business to Second Nature. The transaction included products sold under the Sahale Snacks brand, inclusive of certain trademarks and licensing agreements, a leased manufacturing facility in Seattle, Washington, and approximately 100 employees who supported the brand. Under our ownership, the Sahale Snacks brand generated net sales of $24.1 in 2024, primarily included in the U.S. Retail Frozen Handheld and Spreads segment. Final net proceeds from the divestiture were $31.6, inclusive of a working capital adjustment and cash transaction costs, resulting in a final pre-tax loss of $6.7, of which $6.8 was recognized during the second quarter of 2024, as the disposal group met the criteria to be classified as held for sale, and a valuation allowance was established to reflect the fair value of the disposal group less costs to sell. The valuation allowance was included within loss (gain) on divestitures – net in the Condensed Statement of Consolidated Income and Condensed Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows. Upon close of the transaction during the third quarter of 2024, the pre-tax loss was adjusted to $6.7, reflecting the fair value of the disposal group as of the transaction date.

On April 28, 2023, we sold certain pet food brands to Post. The transaction included the Rachael Ray Nutrish, 9Lives, Kibbles ’n Bits, Nature’s Recipe, and Gravy Train brands, as well as the private label pet food business, inclusive of certain trademarks and licensing agreements, manufacturing and distribution facilities in Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, manufacturing facilities in Meadville, Pennsylvania and Lawrence, Kansas, and approximately 1,100 employees who supported these pet food brands. Final net proceeds from the divestiture were $1.2 billion, consisting of $683.9 in cash, net of a working capital adjustment and cash transaction costs, and approximately 5.4 million shares of Post common stock, valued at $491.6 at the close of the transaction. We recognized a pre-tax loss of $1.0 billion upon completion of this transaction in 2023. During the first half of 2024, we finalized the working capital adjustment and transaction costs, which resulted in an immaterial adjustment to the pre-

Table of Contents

tax loss. Furthermore, during the first quarter of 2024, we entered into equity forward derivative transactions under an agreement with an unrelated third-party to facilitate the forward sale of the Post common stock. All 5.4 million shares of Post common stock were settled for $466.3 under the equity forward contract on November 15, 2023.

Trends Affecting our Business

During the first nine months of 2025, we continued to experience input cost inflation and a dynamic macroeconomic environment, which we anticipate will persist through the remainder of 2025. Further, the higher costs have required price increases across our business, and we anticipate the price elasticity of demand will remain elevated during 2025 as consumers continue to experience broader inflationary pressures. In response to the inflationary pressures, we continue to focus on the delivery of our company-wide transformation initiative to deliberately translate our continuous improvement mindset into sustainable productivity initiatives in order to grow our profit margins and reinvest in the Company to enable future growth and cost savings.

In addition, it is possible significant disruptions in our supply chain could occur if certain geopolitical events continue to impact markets around the world, including the impact of potential shipping delays due to supply and demand imbalances, as well as labor shortages and tariffs. We also continue to work closely with our customers and external business partners, taking additional actions to ensure safety, business continuity, and maximize product availability. We have maintained production at all our facilities and availability of appointments at distribution centers. Furthermore, we have implemented measures to manage order volumes to ensure a consistent supply across our retail partners during periods of high demand. However, to the extent that high demand levels or supply chain disruptions delay order fulfillment, we may experience volume loss and elevated penalties. Although we do not have any operations in Russia, Ukraine, Israel, or Palestine, we continue to monitor the environment for any significant escalation or expansion of economic or supply chain disruptions, including broader inflationary costs, as well as regional or global economic recessions.

Overall, broad-based supply chain disruptions and the impact of inflation remain uncertain. We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent to which supply chain disruptions and inflation will impact our business, supply chain, including labor availability and attrition, results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity.

(A) Net sales excluding acquisition, divestitures, and foreign currency exchange is a non-GAAP financial measure used to evaluate performance internally. This measure provides useful information to investors because it enables comparison of results on a year-over-year basis.

Net sales in the third quarter of 2025 decreased $43.2, or 2 percent, which includes incremental net sales in the current year of $20.1 related to the Hostess Brands acquisition, partially offset by $30.6 of noncomparable net sales in the prior year related to divestitures. Net sales excluding acquisition, divestitures, and foreign currency exchange decreased $28.5, or 1 percent. Volume/mix decreased net sales by 5 percentage points, primarily driven by decreases for coffee, dog snacks, and lower contract manufacturing sales related to the divested pet food brands, partially offset by an increase for Uncrustables sandwiches. Net price realization contributed 3 percentage points to net sales, primarily reflecting higher net pricing for coffee.

Net sales in the first nine months of 2025 increased $609.3, or 10 percent, which includes incremental net sales in the current year of $669.3 related to the Hostess Brands acquisition, partially offset by $88.1 of noncomparable net sales in the prior year related to divestitures. Net sales excluding acquisition, divestitures, and foreign currency exchange increased $34.9, or 1 percent. Net price realization contributed 1 percentage point to net sales, reflecting higher net pricing for coffee, partially offset by lower net pricing for cat food and dog snacks. Volume/mix decreased net sales by 1 percentage point, primarily driven by lower contract manufacturing sales related to the divested pet food brands and decreases for coffee and dog snacks, partially offset by an increase for Uncrustables sandwiches.

Gross profit increased $55.0, or 7 percent, in the third quarter of 2025, primarily reflecting higher net price realization, lower costs, and the noncomparable benefit of Hostess Brands, partially offset by unfavorable volume/mix and the noncomparable impact of divestitures.

Operating income (loss) decreased $891.4, primarily reflecting noncash impairment charges of $794.3 and $208.2 related to the goodwill of the Sweet Baked Snacks reporting unit and Hostess brand indefinite-lived trademark, respectively, and the $50.2 net pre-tax loss on divestitures, reflecting the $42.6 pre-tax loss on the disposal group of certain Sweet Baked Snacks value brands classified as held for sale and a $7.6 adjustment to the Voortman brand disposal group. These impacts were partially offset by an $88.8 decrease in other special project costs, primarily related to integration costs associated with the acquisition of Hostess Brands, and the increase in gross profit.

Our non-GAAP financial measures are adjusted to exclude amortization expense and impairment charges related to intangible assets, special project costs, gains and losses on divestitures, the change in net cumulative unallocated derivative gains and losses, and other infrequently occurring items that do not directly reflect ongoing operating results. Refer to “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” in this discussion and analysis for additional information. Gross profit excluding non-GAAP adjustments (“adjusted gross profit”) decreased $9.1, or 1 percent, as compared to the prior year, primarily reflecting the exclusion of the change in net cumulative unallocated derivative gains and losses as compared to GAAP gross profit. Operating income (loss) excluding non-GAAP adjustments (“adjusted operating income”) increased $6.3, or 1 percent, as compared to the prior year, further reflecting the exclusion of the noncash impairment charges of $1.0 billion associated with the goodwill of the Sweet Baked Snacks reporting unit and Hostess brand indefinite-lived trademark, the $50.2 net pre-tax loss on divestitures, and other special project costs.

Gross profit increased $359.3, or 16 percent, in the first nine months of 2025, primarily reflecting the noncomparable benefit of Hostess Brands, higher net price realization, lower costs, and favorable volume/mix, partially offset by the noncomparable impact of divestitures.

Operating income (loss) decreased $974.6, or 108 percent, primarily reflecting noncash impairment charges of $794.3 and $208.2 related to the goodwill of the Sweet Baked Snacks reporting unit and Hostess brand indefinite-lived trademark, respectively, the $311.0 net pre-tax loss on divestitures, reflecting the $42.6 pre-tax loss on the disposal group of certain Sweet Baked Snacks value brands classified as held for sale and the $268.4 pre-tax loss on the divested Voortman business, and a $127.1 increase in selling, distribution, and administrative (“SD&A”) expenses. These impacts were partially offset by the increase in gross profit, a $77.8 decrease in other special project costs primarily related to integration costs associated with the acquisition of Hostess Brands, and lapping a $39.1 charge in the prior year related to the termination of a supplier agreement.

Adjusted gross profit increased $308.2, or 14 percent, as compared to the prior year, primarily reflecting the exclusion of the change in net cumulative unallocated derivative gains and losses and the exclusion of special project costs as compared to GAAP gross profit. Adjusted operating income increased $227.7, or 19 percent, as compared to the prior year, further reflecting the exclusion of the noncash impairment charges of $1.0 billion associated with the goodwill of the Sweet Baked Snacks reporting unit and Hostess brand indefinite-lived trademark, the $311.0 net pre-tax loss on divestitures, and other special project costs.

Interest Expense

Net interest expense decreased $4.4 during the third quarter of 2025, primarily reflecting a decrease in interest expense related to the Term Loan that was prepaid in full during the fourth quarter of 2024. Net interest expense increased $127.5 during the first nine months of 2025, primarily due to increased interest expense related to the new Senior Notes issued during 2024 to partially finance the acquisition of Hostess Brands. For additional information, refer to Note 9: Debt and Financing Arrangements.

Income Taxes

Income taxes decreased $75.3, or 100 percent, during the three months ended January 31, 2025, as compared to the prior year. The effective income tax rate for the third quarter of 2025 varied from the U.S. statutory income tax rate of 21.0 percent primarily due to state income taxes and an unfavorable permanent impact associated with the goodwill impairment charge for the Sweet Baked Snacks reporting unit, partially offset by the reversal of the deferred tax liability upon completion of the sale of the Voortman Cookies Limited entity, and a favorable noncash deferred tax benefit associated with the integration of Hostess Brands into our Company. The effective income tax rate for the third quarter of 2024 varied from the U.S. statutory income tax rate of 21.0 percent primarily due to state income taxes and unfavorable tax impacts associated with the acquisition of Hostess Brands.

Table of Contents

Income taxes decreased $32.3, or 18 percent, during the nine months ended January 31, 2025, as compared to the prior year. The effective income tax rate for the first nine months of 2025 varied from the U.S. statutory income tax rate of 21.0 percent primarily due to state income taxes and the unfavorable permanent impacts associated with the goodwill impairment charge for the Sweet Baked Snacks reporting unit and the sale of the Voortman business, partially offset by the favorable noncash deferred tax benefit associated with the integration of Hostess Brands into our Company. The effective income tax rate for the first nine months of 2024 varied from the U.S. statutory income tax rate of 21.0 percent primarily due to state income taxes and unfavorable tax impacts associated with the acquisition of Hostess Brands, partially offset by a favorable tax impact of the sale of the Sahale Snacks business.

For additional information, refer to Note 4: Divestitures and Note 14: Income Taxes.

Special Project Costs

Integration Costs: Total integration costs related to the acquisition of Hostess Brands are anticipated to be approximately $210.0 and include transaction costs, employee-related costs, and other transition and termination charges, with the majority expected to be cash charges. We have recognized total cumulative integration costs of $182.3, of which $7.8 and $34.9 were recognized during the three and nine months ended January 31, 2025, respectively. We anticipate the remaining integration costs will be incurred by the end of 2026 and are expected to be split between employee-related and other transition and termination costs.

For further information on these costs, refer to Note 5: Special Project Costs.

U.S. Retail Coffee

The U.S. Retail Coffee segment net sales increased $13.1 in the third quarter of 2025. Net price realization increased net sales by 9 percentage points, primarily driven by higher net pricing for the Folgers and Café Bustelo brands. Volume/mix decreased net sales by 7 percentage points, reflecting decreases for the Folgers and Dunkin’ brands, partially offset by an increase for the Café Bustelo brand. Segment profit increased $0.8, primarily reflecting higher net price realization and favorable property taxes, mostly offset by higher commodity costs and unfavorable volume/mix.

The U.S. Retail Coffee segment net sales increased $29.7 in the first nine months of 2025. Net price realization increased net sales by 4 percentage points, primarily driven by higher net pricing for the Folgers and Café Bustelo brands, partially offset by lower net pricing for the Dunkin’ brand. Volume/mix decreased net sales by 2 percentage points, primarily reflecting decreases for the Dunkin’ and Folgers brands, partially offset by an increase for the Café Bustelo brand. Segment profit increased $35.0, primarily reflecting higher net price realization, lapping the $39.1 charge in the prior year related to the termination of a supplier agreement, lower marketing spend, favorable property taxes, and lower selling expense, partially offset by higher commodity costs and unfavorable volume/mix.

U.S. Retail Frozen Handheld and Spreads

The U.S. Retail Frozen Handheld and Spreads segment net sales increased $8.4 in the third quarter of 2025. Volume/mix contributed 2 percentage points to net sales, primarily reflecting an increase for Uncrustables sandwiches, partially offset by decreases for fruit spreads and peanut butter. Net price realization was neutral to net sales, as higher trade spend for peanut butter was mostly offset by higher net pricing for toppings and syrups. Segment profit decreased $4.9, primarily reflecting higher costs, partially offset by lower pre-production expenses primarily related to the new Uncrustables sandwiches manufacturing facility.

The U.S. Retail Frozen Handheld and Spreads segment net sales increased $62.1 in the first nine months of 2025, inclusive of the impact of $15.1 of noncomparable net sales in the prior year related to the divested Sahale Snacks business. Excluding the noncomparable impact of the divestiture, net sales increased $77.2, or 6 percent. Volume/mix contributed 6 percentage points to net sales, primarily reflecting increases for Uncrustables sandwiches and peanut butter, partially offset by a decrease for fruit spreads. Net price realization was neutral to net sales as lower net pricing for Uncrustables sandwiches was mostly offset by higher net pricing for Jif peanut butter, reflecting a list price increase for peanut butter implemented in the prior year, and Smucker’s toppings and syrups. Segment profit decreased $4.0, primarily reflecting higher marketing spend, pre-production

expenses related to the new Uncrustables sandwiches manufacturing facility, higher costs, and lower net price realization, partially offset by favorable volume/mix.

U.S. Retail Pet Foods

The U.S. Retail Pet Foods segment net sales decreased $42.2 in the third quarter of 2025. Volume/mix decreased net sales by 9 percentage points, primarily reflecting a decrease for dog snacks and lower contract manufacturing sales related to the divested pet food brands, partially offset by an increase for cat food.

Segment profit increased $7.3, primarily reflecting lower costs, partially offset by unfavorable volume/mix.

The U.S. Retail Pet Foods segment net sales decreased $102.1 in the first nine months of 2025. Volume/mix decreased net sales by 6 percentage points, primarily reflecting lower contract manufacturing sales related to the divested pet food brands and a decrease for dog snacks, partially offset by an increase for cat food. Net price realization decreased net sales by 2 percentage points, primarily reflecting higher trade spend for cat food and dog snacks. Segment profit increased $65.5, reflecting lower costs, favorable volume/mix, and lower distribution expenses, partially offset by lower net price realization.

Sweet Baked Snacks

We acquired Hostess Brands on November 7, 2023, as discussed in Note 3: Acquisition. During the third quarter of 2025, the Sweet Baked Snacks segment contributed net sales of $278.6 and segment profit of $54.8.

Volume/mix decreased net sales by 5 percentage points, primarily reflecting decreases for snack cakes and private label products, partially offset by an increase for donuts. Net price realization decreased net sales by 2 percentage points, primarily reflecting lower net pricing across the portfolio. Segment profit decreased $13.2 and increased $131.8 during the three and nine months ended January 31, 2025, respectively, primarily reflecting lower net price realization, the impact of noncomparable segment profit in the prior year related to the divested Voortman business, higher marketing spend, and unfavorable volume/mix, partially offset by the impact of noncomparable segment profit in the current year related to the Hostess Brands acquisition and lower costs.

International and Away From Home

International and Away From Home net sales decreased $0.8 in the third quarter of 2025, including the noncomparable impact of $10.4 of net sales in the prior year related to the divested Canada condiment business and $4.2 of unfavorable foreign currency exchange. Excluding the noncomparable impact of the divested business and foreign currency exchange, net sales increased $13.8, or 5 percent.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity

Our principal source of funds is cash generated from operations, supplemented by borrowings against our commercial paper program and revolving credit facility. Total cash and cash equivalents decreased to $47.2 at January 31, 2025, compared to $62.0 at April 30, 2024.

The following table presents selected cash flow information.


	Nine Months Ended January 31,
	2025		2024
Net cash provided by (used for) operating activities	$	816.5	$	801.3
Net cash provided by (used for) investing activities	(18.5)		(3,861.2)
Net cash provided by (used for) financing activities	(810.6)		2,439.5

Net cash provided by (used for) operating activities	$	816.5	$	801.3
Additions to property, plant, and equipment	(298.8)		(455.9)
Free cash flow (A)	$	517.7	$	345.4

(A)Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure used by management to evaluate the amount of cash available for debt repayment, dividend distribution, acquisition opportunities, share repurchases, and other corporate purposes.

The $15.2 increase in cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of 2025 was primarily driven by higher net income (loss) adjusted for noncash items in the current year, partially offset by higher working capital requirements in 2025 and lapping the $42.5 proceeds received from settlement of the interest rate contracts assumed as part of the acquisition of Hostess Brands in the prior year. The cash required to fund working capital increased compared to the prior year primarily driven by an increase in cash used for accrued liabilities reflecting timing of interest payments and a decrease in the payable for transition services agreements entered into in connection with the divestitures and an increase in cash used for inventories, reflecting higher inventory levels in the current year. These uses of cash were partially offset by an increase in cash from trade receivables due to timing of sales and payments.

Cash used for investing activities in the first nine months of 2025 consisted primarily of $298.8 in capital expenditures, reflecting our investments in the new Uncrustables sandwiches manufacturing and distribution facilities in McCalla, Alabama, as well as plant maintenance across our facilities, and also included an increase of $10.4 in our derivative cash margin account balances. These uses of cash for 2025 were partially offset by net proceeds received of $290.5 from the divested Voortman business. Cash used for investing activities in the first nine months of 2024 consisted primarily of $3.9 billion related to the acquisition of Hostess Brands, including $67.8 of consideration transferred for the cash payment of Hostess Brands’ employee equity awards, and $455.9 in capital expenditures, primarily driven by investments in Uncrustables sandwiches to support the new manufacturing and distribution facilities in McCalla, Alabama, as well as plant maintenance across our facilities. These uses of cash for 2024 were partially offset by proceeds of $466.3 received from the settlement of our equity investment in Post common stock and net proceeds received of $50.5 from the divested Sahale Snacks and Canada condiment businesses.

Cash used for financing activities in the first nine months of 2025 consisted primarily of dividend payments of $340.9, long-term debt repayments of $300.0, and a net decrease in short-term borrowings of $153.2. Cash provided by financing activities in the first nine months of 2024 consisted primarily of proceeds from long-term debt of $4.3 billion to partially finance the acquisition of Hostess Brands and a net increase in short-term borrowings of $413.2. These proceeds were partially offset by the $991.0 repayment of Hostess Brands debt assumed, the $450.0 Term Loan prepayment, purchase of treasury shares of $372.5, dividend payments of $325.5, and the $86.4 payment to terminate the tax receivable agreement assumed with the acquisition of Hostess Brands.

Supplier Financing Program

As part of ongoing efforts to maximize working capital, we work with our suppliers to optimize our terms and conditions, which includes the extension of payment terms. Payment terms with our suppliers, which we deem to be commercially reasonable, range from 0 to 180 days. We have an agreement with a third-party administrator to provide an accounts payable tracking system and facilitate a supplier financing program, which allows participating suppliers the ability to monitor and voluntarily elect to sell our payment obligations to a designated third-party financial institution. Participating suppliers can sell one or more of our payment obligations at their sole discretion, and our rights and obligations to our suppliers are not impacted. We have no economic interest in a supplier’s decision to enter into these agreements. Our rights and obligations to our suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment terms, are not impacted by our suppliers’ decisions to sell amounts under these arrangements. As of January 31, 2025, and April 30, 2024, $315.1 and $384.9 of our outstanding payment obligations, respectively, were elected and sold to a financial institution by participating suppliers. During the first nine months of 2025 and 2024, we paid $1,211.9 and $1,280.6, respectively, to a financial institution for payment obligations that were settled through the supplier financing program.

Contingencies

Product Recall: We are defendants in ongoing consumer litigation associated with the voluntary recall of select Jif peanut butter products initiated in May 2022. The outcome and financial impact of this litigation cannot be predicted at this time. Accordingly, no loss contingency has been recorded for these matters as of January 31, 2025, as the likelihood of loss is not considered probable or reasonably estimable.

Voortman Contingency: In December 2020, Hostess Brands asserted claims for indemnification against the Sellers under the terms of the Purchase Agreement pursuant to which Hostess Brands acquired Voortman. The claims were for damages arising out of alleged breaches by the Sellers of certain representations, warranties, and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement relating to periods prior to the closing of the acquisition. Hostess Brands also submitted claims relating to these alleged breaches under RWI that was purchased in connection with the acquisition. In the third quarter of calendar 2022, the RWI insurers paid Hostess Brands the Proceeds related to these breaches. Per agreement with the RWI insurers, we will not be required to return the Proceeds under any circumstances.

On November 3, 2022, pursuant to the agreement with the RWI insurers, Voortman brought the Claim related to the breaches against certain of the Sellers. The Claim alleges the seller defendants made certain non-disclosures and misrepresentations to induce Hostess Brands to overpay for Voortman. We are seeking damages of $109.0 CAD representing the amount of the aggregate liability of the Sellers for indemnification under the Purchase Agreement, $5.0 CAD in punitive or aggravated damages, interest, proceedings fees, and any other relief the presiding court deems appropriate. A portion of any recovery will be shared with the RWI insurers. Although we believe that the Claim is meritorious, no assurance can be given as to whether we will recover all, or any part, of the amounts being pursued. We retained rights to the Claim upon the divestiture of the Voortman business in the third quarter of 2025.

Capital Resources

The following table presents our capital structure.


	January 31, 2025		April 30, 2024
Current portion of long-term debt	$	999.9	$	999.3
Short-term borrowings	461.9		591.0

Shareholders’ equity	6,907.3		7,693.9
Total capital	$	14,754.6	$	16,057.9

In December 2024, we commenced the tender offers to purchase up to $300.0 in aggregate purchase price, not including accrued and unpaid interest, of certain outstanding Senior Notes. As a result, an aggregate principle amount of $122.5 of our 2.750% Senior Notes due 2041 and $138.8 of our 3.550% Senior Notes due 2050 were tendered and accepted, and $194.1 of our 2.125% Senior Notes due 2032 were tendered, of which $135.5 was accepted.

In October 2023, we completed an offering of $3.5 billion in Senior Notes due November 15, 2028, November 15, 2033, November 15, 2043, and November 15, 2053. The net proceeds from the offering were used to partially finance the acquisition of Hostess Brands and pay off the debt assumed as part of the acquisition.

We have available a $2.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility with a group of 11 banks that matures in August 2026. Additionally, we participate in a commercial paper program under which we can issue short-term, unsecured commercial paper not to exceed $2.0 billion at any time. The commercial paper program is backed by our revolving credit facility and reduces what we can borrow under the revolving credit facility by the amount of commercial paper outstanding. Commercial paper is used as a continuing source of short-term financing for general corporate purposes. As of January 31, 2025, we had $462.0 of short-term borrowings outstanding, which were issued under our commercial paper program at a weighted-average interest rate of 4.55 percent.

We are in compliance with all our debt covenants as of January 31, 2025, and expect to be for the next 12 months. For additional information on our long-term debt, sources of liquidity, and debt covenants, see Note 9: Debt and Financing Arrangements.

Dividend payments were $340.9 and $325.5 in the first nine months of 2025 and 2024, respectively, and dividends declared per share were $3.24 and $3.18 in the first nine months of 2025 and 2024, respectively. The declaration of dividends is subject to the discretion of our Board and depends on various factors, such as our net income (loss), financial condition, cash requirements, future events, and other factors deemed relevant by the Board.

During the nine months ended January 31, 2025, we did not repurchase any common shares under a repurchase plan authorized by the Board. As of January 31, 2025, approximately 1.1 million common shares remain available for repurchase pursuant to the Board’s authorizations. There is no guarantee as to the exact number of shares that may be repurchased or when such purchases may occur.

On March 2, 2023, we entered into the 10b5-1 Plan established in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act in connection with the remaining common shares authorized for repurchase by the Board, which was approximately 3.5 million common shares as of April 30, 2023. In accordance with the 10b5-1 Plan, our designated broker had the authority to repurchase approximately 2.4 million common shares, which commenced upon the sale of certain pet food brands on April 28, 2023, and expired 45 calendar days after the closure of the transaction. During the first quarter of 2024, we repurchased approximately 2.4 million common shares for $362.8 under the 10b5-1 Plan. In accordance with the Inflation Reduction Act, a one percent excise tax was applied to share repurchases after December 31, 2022. As a result, an excise tax of $3.6 was accrued on the repurchased shares during the first quarter of 2024 and included within additional capital in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. An accrued excise tax of $6.7 was paid during the three and nine months ended January 31, 2025, which was related to the shares repurchased under the 10b5-1 Plan during 2023 and 2024.

All other share repurchases during the nine months ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, consisted of shares repurchased from stock plan recipients in lieu of cash payments.

On November 7, 2023, we acquired Hostess Brands, and as a result, we issued approximately 4.0 million common shares valued at $450.2 in exchange for the outstanding shares of Hostess Brands common stock to partially fund the acquisition. The

Table of Contents

shares issued were based on each outstanding share of Hostess Brands common stock receiving $30.00 per share in cash and 0.03002 shares of our common shares, which represents a value of $4.25 based on the closing stock price of our common shares on September 8, 2023, the last trading day preceding September 11, 2023, the date on which the execution of the Hostess Brands merger agreement was publicly announced. For additional information on the acquisition of Hostess Brands, see Note 3: Acquisition.

In November 2021, we announced plans to invest $1.1 billion to build a new manufacturing facility and distribution center in McCalla, Alabama dedicated to the production of Uncrustables sandwiches. Construction of this facility began in 2022 and production began during the second quarter of 2025. The project demonstrates our commitment to meet increasing demand for this highly successful product and deliver on our strategy to focus on brands with the most significant growth opportunities. Construction of the facility and production will occur in three phases over multiple years, with financial investments and job creation aligning across each of the three phases.

Absent any material acquisitions, apart from the recent acquisition of Hostess Brands, or other significant investments, we believe that cash on hand, combined with cash provided by operations, borrowings available under our revolving credit facility and commercial paper program, and access to capital markets, will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements for the next 12 months, including the payment of quarterly dividends, principal and interest payments on debt outstanding, and capital expenditures. We intend to use a combination of the aforementioned sources of liquidity to fund our obligations with respect to the Senior Notes due March 15, 2025. However, as a result of the current macroeconomic environment and the recent acquisition, we may experience an increase in the cost or the difficulty to obtain debt or equity financing, or to refinance our debt in the future. We continue to evaluate these risks, which could affect our financial condition or our ability to fund operations or future investment opportunities.

As of January 31, 2025, total cash and cash equivalents of $40.9 was held by our foreign subsidiaries, primarily in Canada. During the first nine months of 2025, we returned $35.0 of foreign cash to the U.S. from Canada, reflecting intercompany debt repayments, and as a result, there were no tax impacts. There was no other foreign cash repatriated to the U.S. during the first nine months of 2025.

Material Cash Requirements

We do not have material off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as variable interest entities. Transactions with related parties are in the ordinary course of business and are not material to our results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

As of January 31, 2025, there were no other material changes to our material cash requirements as previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2024.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

We use non-GAAP financial measures including: net sales excluding acquisition, divestitures, and foreign currency exchange, adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating income, adjusted income, adjusted earnings per share, and free cash flow, as key measures for purposes of evaluating performance internally. We believe that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing these performance measures. Furthermore, these non-GAAP financial measures are used by management in preparation of the annual budget and for the monthly analyses of our operating results. The Board also utilizes certain non-GAAP financial measures as components for measuring performance for incentive compensation purposes.

Non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain items affecting comparability that can significantly affect the year-over-year assessment of operating results, which include amortization expense and impairment charges related to intangible assets, special project costs, gains and losses on divestitures, the change in net cumulative unallocated derivative gains and losses, and other infrequently occurring items that do not directly reflect ongoing operating results. Income taxes, as adjusted is calculated using an adjusted effective income tax rate that is applied to adjusted income before income taxes and reflects the exclusion of the previously discussed items, as well as any adjustments for one-time tax related activities, when they occur. While this adjusted effective income tax rate does not generally differ materially from our GAAP effective income tax rate, certain exclusions from non-GAAP results, such as the unfavorable permanent tax impacts associated with the goodwill impairment charge for the Sweet Baked Snacks reporting unit and the sale of the Voortman Cookies Limited entity and the favorable noncash deferred tax benefit associated with the integration of Hostess Brands into our Company, can significantly impact our adjusted effective income tax rate.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to replace the presentation of financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Rather, the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures supplements other metrics we use to internally evaluate

Table of Contents

our business and facilitate the comparison of past and present operations and liquidity. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies and may exclude certain nondiscretionary expenses and cash payments.

The following table reconciles certain non-GAAP measures to the comparable GAAP financial measure. See page 31 for a reconciliation of net sales adjusted for certain noncomparable items to the comparable GAAP financial measure.
