(a) Adjusted Operating Income is a non-GAAP financial measure. See the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section at the end of this item.

Operating income/(loss) decreased 19.4% to a loss of $6.4 billion for the three months ended June 27, 2026 compared to a loss of $8.0 billion for the three months ended June 28, 2025, primarily due to non-cash impairment losses that were $1.9 billion lower in the current year period. In addition to the impact of these non-cash impairment losses, operating income/(loss) decreased by $371 million driven by unfavorable changes in unrealized losses/(gains) on commodity hedges, increased advertising expenses, unfavorable volume/mix, inflationary pressures in manufacturing and logistics costs that outpaced our efficiency initiatives, and higher variable compensation and related tax expense. These unfavorable impacts to operating income/(loss) were partially offset by higher pricing and efficiency initiatives in procurement that outpaced inflationary pressures.

Net income/(loss) decreased 30.2% to a loss of $5.5 billion for the three months ended June 27, 2026 compared to a loss of $7.8 billion for the three months ended June 28, 2025. This decrease was due to the favorable changes in operating income/(loss) factors discussed above, lower income tax expense, and lower interest expense, partially offset by unfavorable changes in other expense/(income).

Our effective tax rate for the three months ended June 27, 2026 was a benefit of 14.4% on pre-tax loss, which included the net unfavorable effective tax rate impact of goodwill and intangible asset impairment losses of 9.0%. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended June 28, 2025 was a benefit of 4.2% on pre-tax loss. The year-over-year change in the effective tax rate for the three-month period was primarily due to the impact of non-deductible goodwill impairments and a more favorable geographic mix of pre-tax income in various non-U.S. jurisdictions.

Interest expense/(income) was $31 million of income for the three months ended June 27, 2026 compared to $240 million of expense for the three months ended June 28, 2025. This change was primarily driven by a $265 million gain on extinguishment of debt in connection with the Tender Offer.

Other expense/(income) was $24 million of income for the three months ended June 27, 2026 compared to $47 million of income for the three months ended June 28, 2025.

Adjusted Operating Income decreased 18.4% to $1.0 billion for the three months ended June 27, 2026 compared to $1.3 billion for the three months ended June 28, 2025, primarily due to increased advertising expenses, unfavorable volume/mix, inflationary pressures in manufacturing and logistics costs that outpaced our efficiency initiatives, and higher variable compensation and related tax expenses. These unfavorable impacts more than offset higher pricing and efficiency initiatives in procurement that outpaced inflationary pressures.

Operating income/(loss) decreased 22.0% to a loss of $5.3 billion for the six months ended June 27, 2026 compared to a loss of $6.8 billion for the six months ended June 28, 2025, primarily due to non-cash impairment losses that were $1.9 billion lower in the current year period. In addition to the impact of these non-cash impairment losses, operating income/(loss) decreased by $409 million driven by increased advertising expenses, inflationary pressures in manufacturing and logistics costs that outpaced our efficiency initiatives, unfavorable volume/mix, higher variable compensation and related tax expenses, and separation costs incurred in the current year. These unfavorable impacts to operating income/(loss) were partially offset by higher pricing, favorable changes in unrealized losses/(gains) on commodity hedges, and efficiency initiatives in procurement that outpaced inflationary pressures.

Net income/(loss) decreased 34.4% to a loss of $4.7 billion for the six months ended June 27, 2026 compared to a loss of $7.1 billion for the six months ended June 28, 2025. This decrease was due to the favorable changes in operating income/(loss) factors discussed above, lower income tax expense, lower interest expense, and favorable changes in other expense/(income).

Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 27, 2026 was a benefit of 13.1% on pre-tax loss, which included the net unfavorable effective tax rate impact of goodwill and intangible asset impairment losses of 10.8%. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 28, 2025 was a benefit of 0.6% on pre-tax loss, which included the net unfavorable effective tax rate impact of goodwill and intangible asset impairment losses of 24.7%. The year-over-year change in the effective tax rate for the six month period was primarily due to the impact of non-deductible goodwill impairments, and a more favorable geographic mix of pre-tax income in various non-U.S. jurisdictions.

Interest expense/(income) was $205 million of expenses for the six months ended June 27, 2026 compared to $469 million of expense for the six months ended June 28, 2025. This change was primarily driven by a $265 million gain on extinguishment of debt in connection with the Tender Offer.

Other expense/(income) was $125 million of income for the six months ended June 27, 2026 compared to $98 million of income for the six months ended June 28, 2025. This change was primarily driven by a $41 million favorable change in net pension and postretirement non-service benefits related to the settlement of our U.S. Retiree Life Insurance Plan in the first quarter of 2026.

Adjusted Operating Income decreased 15.2% to $2.1 billion for the six months ended June 27, 2026 compared to $2.5 billion for the six months ended June 28, 2025, primarily driven by increased advertising expenses, inflationary pressures in manufacturing and logistics costs that outpaced our efficiency initiatives, unfavorable volume/mix, and higher variable compensation and related tax expenses. These unfavorable impacts were partially offset by higher pricing and efficiency initiatives in procurement that outpaced inflationary pressures.
