Farm Production

Feed

costs

per

dozen

produced

decreased

9.6%

in

the

third

quarter

of

fiscal

to

the

third

quarter

of

fiscal 2024.

This decrease

was primarily

due to

lower prices

for soybean

meal, one

of our

primary feed

ingredients.

The decrease in feed cost per dozen resulted in a decrease in cost of sales of $15.2 million for the third quarter of fiscal

2025 compared to the prior period quarter.

For the

the average Chicago

Board of Trade

(“CBOT”) daily

market price was

$4.68 per

bushel

of

corn

and

$298

per

ton

of

soybean

meal,

representing

an

of

3.8%

and

a

decrease

of

19.3%,

respectively, as compared to the average CBOT daily market prices for the third quarter of fiscal 2024.

Other farm production

costs decreased primarily due

to lower flock

amortization. Feed costs reached

their peak in the

second quarter of

fiscal 2023 and

have since trended

downward. Lower costs

result in lower

capitalized values of

the

flocks during the grow out phase, which reduced amortization cost over time.

Feed costs per

dozen produced decreased

13.3% in the

thirty-nine weeks ended

same

fiscal 2024, primarily

due to

lower feed

ingredient prices. The

decrease in

feed cost

per dozen

decrease in cost of sales of $63.6 million compared to the prior year period.

For the

year-to-date period,

CBOT daily

market price

was $4.29

per bushel

of corn

and $316

per ton

of

soybean meal, representing decreases of

11.8%

and 21.5%, respectively,

compared to the average CBOT

daily market

prices for the comparable period in the prior year.

Other farm production costs decreased due to lower flock amortization, for the reasons described above.

Processing, packaging, and warehouse

Processing,

SELLING, GENERAL, AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Selling,

includes contract trucking expense

that

are

to

the

EB

We

also obtained

some new

business and

additional shipping routes in order to meet our customers’ needs at their locations.

The decrease in marketing

expense is primarily due to

a decrease in franchise fees.

The higher prices for conventional

eggs compared to specialty eggs diminished the need to promote specialty eggs; as a result EB temporarily reduced the

related franchise fees for certain specialty egg brands to encourage continued production of these branded

eggs.

Other general and administrative expense

The

in

other

general

is

due

both

to

an

and to the

increased adjustment to

Other general and administrative expense

The increase in other

associated with the acquisition of ISE assets that occurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

GAIN ON INVOLUNTARY

CONVERSION

In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, we recorded a gain of $9.9 million due to recoveries under indemnity and insurance programs

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Working Capital and Current Ratio

Our working

capital was

$1.5 billion

at March

1, 2025

$1.0 billion

at June

1, 2024.

The calculation

of working

capital is defined as current

assets less current liabilities. Our current ratio

was 3.9 at March 1,

2025 compared to 5.5 at June

1,

  1. The

decrease in

our current

ratio is

to the

both income

taxes and

trade payables.

The current

ratio is calculated by dividing current assets by current liabilities.

Share Repurchase Program

On February

25, 2025,

the Board

of Directors

approved a

new $500

million share

repurchase program.

program authorizes the Company, in management’s discretion, to repurchase Common Stock from time to time for an aggregate

purchase price

up to

$500 million

(exclusive of

any fees,

taxes, commissions

or other

expenses related

to such

repurchases),

subject to

market conditions

factors. The

actual timing,

number and

value of

shares repurchased

under the

program

will be

determined by

management in

its discretion

and will

depend on

a number

of factors,

including, but

not limited

to, the

market price of the Common Stock and general market and economic conditions.

The Company expects to strategically and opportunistically repurchase shares from time to time through solicited or unsolicited

transactions in the

open market, in

privately negotiated transactions

or by other

means in accordance

with securities laws.

It is

also

possible

that

the

Company could

use

a

portion of

its share

program to

some of

the

shares

of

the

Common

Stock

held

by

the

family

of

our

late

founder,

Fred

R.

Adams

Jr.,

as

part

of

their

portfolio

diversification.

Any

repurchases

from

the

family

would

require

special

approval

from

a

Special

Committee

of

the

Board

of

Directors.

The

Company

expects

that

share

repurchases

under

the

program

will

be

funded

from

one

or

a

combination

of

existing cash

balances and

future free

cash flow.

repurchase program

does not

obligate the

Company to

any specific

amount of

shares, does

not have

an expiration

date, and

may be

suspended, modified

or discontinued

at any

time

without prior notice.

Dividends

In

with

our

variable

dividend

policy,

we

will

pay

a

cash

dividend

totaling

$169.5

or

approximately $3.456 per share, to holders

of our Common Stock and Class

A Common Stock with respect to

our third quarter

of fiscal 2025. The amount paid per share will vary based on

the number of outstanding shares on the record date. The dividend

is payable on May 15, 2025 to holders of record on April 30, 2025.

Material Cash Requirements

Material cash

requirements for operating

activities primarily consist

of feed

ingredients, processing, packaging

and warehouse

costs, employee related costs, and

other general operating expenses, which

we expect to be paid

from our cash from operations

and cash and investment

securities on hand for

at least the next

12 months. While volatile

egg prices and feed

ingredient costs,

among

other

things, make

long-term predictions

difficult,

we

have

substantial liquid

assets and

availability under

our

Credit

Facility to fund future operating requirements.

Our material cash

requirements for capital expenditures

consist primarily of our

construction projects to

increase our cage-free

capacity.

We

continue to

monitor the

increasing demand

eggs and

to

engage with

our

in

efforts

to achieve

a smooth

transition toward

their announced

timelines for

sales. The

following table

These projects

include the

We

the

layer

hens

and

We

are

also

investing

$15

million

to

expand our egg products processing facility in Blackshear, Georgia to add extended shelf-life liquid eggs products.

We

believe our

current cash

balances, investments,

projected cash

operations, and

available borrowings

under our

Facility

will

be

sufficient

to

fund

our

to

our

capital commitments currently in place thereafter.
