Forward Guidance
For fiscal 2020, USDA indicates domestic protein production (beef, pork, chicken and turkey) should increase approximately 3-4% from fiscal 2019 levels, but we expect export markets to absorb the increased production.
Positive Outlook
- Beef – We expect industry fed cattle supplies to increase approximately 1% in fiscal 2020 as compared to fiscal 2019. We expect ample supplies in regions where we operate our plants.
- Beef - For fiscal 2020, we believe our Beef segment's adjusted operating margin will be toward the upper end of 6.5% to 7.5%, absent additional impacts from ASF.
- Pork – We expect industry hog supplies to increase approximately 4% in fiscal 2020 as compared to fiscal 2019.
- International/Other – We expect improved results in fiscal 2020 from improvement in our foreign operations as well as the impact of a full year of our recently acquired operations.
- Liquidity – We expect total liquidity, which was approximately $1.4 billion at December 28, 2019, to remain above our minimum liquidity target of $1.0 billion.
Challenges Ahead
- Chicken – USDA projects a 4% increase in chicken production in fiscal 2020 as compared to fiscal 2019.
