Our business is subject to various risks and uncertainties. Any of the risks described below could materially, adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Added

Business and Industry Risks

Reworded

BusinessThe andcategories Industryin Riskswhich we participate are very competitive, and if we are not able to compete effectively, our results of operations could be adversely affected.

Added

The human and pet food categories in which we participate are very competitive. Our principal competitors in these categories are manufacturers, as well as retailers with their own branded and private label products. Competitors market and sell their products through brick-and-mortar stores and e-commerce. All of our principal competitors have substantial financial, marketing, and other resources. In most product categories, we compete not only with other widely advertised branded products, but also with regional brands and with generic and private label products that are generally sold at lower prices. Competition in our product categories is based on product innovation, product quality, price, brand recognition and loyalty, effectiveness of marketing, promotional activity, convenient ordering and delivery to the consumer, and the ability to identify and satisfy consumer preferences. If our large competitors were to seek an advantage through pricing or promotional changes, we could choose to do the same, which could adversely affect our margins and profitability. If we did not do the same, our revenues and market share could be adversely affected. Our market share and revenue growth could also be adversely impacted if we are not successful in introducing innovative products in response to changing consumer demands or by new product introductions of our competitors. If we are unable to build and sustain brand equity by offering recognizably superior product quality, we may be unable to maintain premium pricing over generic and private label products.

Added

There has been significant consolidation in the grocery industry, resulting in customers with increased purchasing power. In addition, large retail customers may seek to use their position to improve their profitability through improved efficiency, lower pricing, increased reliance on their own brand name products, increased emphasis on generic and other economy brands, and increased promotional programs. If we are unable to use our scale, marketing expertise, product innovation, knowledge of consumers’ needs, and category leadership positions to respond to these demands, our profitability and volume growth could be negatively impacted. In addition, the loss of any large customer could adversely affect our sales and profits. In fiscal 2026, Walmart accounted for 22 percent of our consolidated net sales and 31 percent of net sales of our North America Retail segment. For more information on significant customers, please see Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this report.

Reworded

Price changes for the commodities we depend on for raw materials, packaging, and energy may adversely affect our profitability.

Reworded

The principal raw materials that we use are commodities that experience price volatility caused by external conditions such as weather, climate change, product scarcity, limited sources of supply, commodity market fluctuations, currency fluctuations, trade tariffs (including recent tariffs imposed or threatened to be imposed China,by Mexico,the United States on other countries and any retaliatory actions taken by such countries), pandemics, war (including sanctions imposed on Russia for its invasion of Ukraine), and changes in governmental agricultural and energy policies and regulations. Commodity prices have become, and may continue to be, more volatile. Commodity price changes may result in unexpected increases in raw material, packaging, energy, and transportation costs. If we are unable to increase productivity to offset these increased costs or increase our prices, we may experience reduced margins and profitability. We do not fully hedge against changes in commodity prices, and the risk management procedures that we do use may not always work as we intend.

Reworded

We could be adversely affected if consumers in our principal markets lose confidence in the safety and quality of certain of our products or ingredients. Adverse publicity about these types of concerns, whether or not valid, may discourage consumers from buying our products or cause production and delivery disruptions.

Reworded

Reworded

Our success depends in part on our ability to anticipate the tastes, eating habits (including the impact of weight loss drugs), and purchasing behaviors of consumers and to offer products that appeal to their preferences in channels where they shop. Consumer preferences and category-level consumption may change from time to time and can be affected by a number of different trends and other factors. If we fail to anticipate, identify or react to these changes and trends, such as adapting to emerging e-commerce channels, or to introduce new and improved products on a timely basis, we may experience reduced demand for our products, which would in turn cause our revenues and profitability to suffer. Similarly, demand for our products could be affected by consumer concerns regarding the health effects of ingredients such as sodium, genetically modified organisms, sugar and sugar alternatives, color additives, preservatives, processed wheat and other ingredients, grain-free or legume-rich pet food, or other product ingredients or attributes.

Reworded

The food industry’s growth potential is constrained by population growth. Our success depends in part on our ability to grow our business faster than populations are growing in the markets that we serve. One way to achieve that growth is to enhance our portfolio by adding innovative new products in faster growing and more profitable categories. Our future results will also depend on our ability to increase market share in our existing product categories. If we do not succeed in developing innovative products for new and existing categories, our growth and profitability could be adversely affected.

Reworded

Maintaining and continually enhancing the value of our many iconic brands is critical to the success of our business. The value of our brands is based in large part on the degree to which consumers react and respond positively to these brands. Brand value could diminish significantly due to a number of factors, including consumer perception that we have acted in an irresponsible manner, adverse publicity about our products, our failure to maintain the quality of our products, concerns or perceptions about the nutrition profile and health effects of ingredients or substances (including the processing thereof) in our products or packaging, the failure of our products to deliver consistently positive consumer experiences, concerns about food safety, or our products becoming unavailable to consumers. Consumer demand for our products may also be impacted by changes in the level of advertising or promotional support.

Added

The use of social and digital media by consumers, us, and third parties increases the speed and extent that information or misinformation and opinions can be shared. Negative posts or comments about us, our brands, or our products on social or digital media could seriously damage our brands and reputation. If we do not maintain the favorable perception of our brands, our business results could be negatively impacted.

Reworded

Our future success and earnings growth depend in part on our ability to be efficient in the production and manufacture of our products in highly competitive markets. Gaining additional efficiencies may become more difficult over time. Our failure to reduce costs through productivity gains or by eliminating redundant costs resulting from acquisitions or divestitures could adversely affect our profitability and weaken our competitive position. Many productivity initiatives involve complex reorganization of manufacturing facilities and production lines. Such manufacturing realignment may result in the interruption of production, which may negatively impact product volume and margins. We periodically engage in restructuring, transformation, and cost savings initiatives designed to increase our efficiency and reduce expenses. If we are unable to execute those initiatives as planned, we may not realize all or any of the anticipated benefits, which could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Removed

Reworded

Our ability to make, move, and sell products is critical to our success. Damage or disruption to raw material supplies or our manufacturing or distribution capabilities due to weather, climate change, natural disaster, fire, terrorism, cyber-attack, pandemics, war, governmental restrictions or mandates, labor shortages, strikes, import/export restrictions, or other factors could impair our ability to manufacture or sell our products. Many of our product lines are manufactured at a single location or sourced from a single supplier.

Reworded

The failure of third parties on which we rely, including those third parties who supply our ingredients, packaging, capital equipment and other necessary operating materials, contract manufacturers, commercial transport, distributors, contractors, and external business partners, to meet their obligations to us, or significant disruptions in their ability to do so, may negatively impact our operations. Our suppliers’ policies and practices can damage our reputation and the quality and safety of our products. Disputes with significant suppliers, including disputes regarding pricing or performance, could adversely affect our ability to supply products to our customers and could materially and adversely affect our sales, financial condition, and results of operations. Failure to take adequate steps to mitigate the likelihood or potential impact of such events, or to effectively manage such events if they occur, particularly when a product is sourced from a single location or supplier, could adversely affect our business and results of operations, as well as require additional resources to restore our supply chain.

Our key priorities in fiscal 2027 are to strengthen our organic net sales growth, accelerate our enterprise transformation efforts, and drive disciplined capital allocation and returns. Amid a continued challenging macroeconomic backdrop for consumers, we expect category growth to be consistent with recent trends and below our long-term growth projections. With our price investments completed in fiscal 2026, our plans in fiscal 2027 are focused on delivering product innovation and renovation news centered on the benefits that matter most to today’s consumers, including better-for-you benefits like protein and fiber, bold flavors, fun and indulgence, and pet humanization, all of which should help support stronger topline growth. We expect to generate at least $750 million in total savings from our ongoing Holistic Margin Management (HMM) productivity program, our global transformation initiative, and other cost savings actions. These savings are part of our $3 billion cumulative cost savings target through fiscal 2030 and will help offset our forecast for 4 to 5 percent input cost inflation and increased investments in product innovation and renovation in fiscal 2027. In addition to these factors, we expect decreases of approximately 9 points on operating profit and 11 points on EPS in fiscal 2027 from lapping the 53rd week in fiscal 2026, normalizing corporate incentive expense, and the impact of fiscal 2026 divestitures.

Our key priorities in fiscal 2026 are to return North America Retail to volume growth, accelerate North America Pet growth with an expanded portfolio, and drive efficiencies to reinvest in growth. We expect category growth to be below our long-term projections, reflecting less benefit from net price realization and mix amid a continued challenging consumer backdrop. To strengthen our categories and market share performance, we plan to increase investment in consumer value, product news, innovation, and brand building, guided by our remarkable experience framework. This included a significant strategic investment to launch Blue Buffalo into the fast-growing United States fresh pet food sub-category in calendar 2025. We expect the combination of these growth investments, input cost inflation, and normalization of corporate incentive will outpace expected Holistic Margin Management cost savings of 5 percent of cost of goods sold, savings from our global transformation initiative, and benefits from a 53rd week in fiscal 2026. In addition, we expect the net impact of the divestitures of our North American yogurt businesses and the Whitebridge Pet Brands acquisition will reduce adjusted operating profit growth by approximately 5 points in fiscal 2026.
