Item 5. Other Information

Restructuring Plan

We are reporting the following information for the purpose of providing the disclosure required under Form 8-K Item 2.05 “Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.”

On October 1, 2024, our board of directors approved a restructuring plan (the “Restructuring Plan”) that is designed to drive operational and cost efficiencies and improve cash flows, while positioning the Company to continue to make strategic investments to drive long-term value for our stakeholders. The Restructuring Plan is being implemented in response to current operating environment facing the Company and includes:

The permanent closure of our manufacturing facility in Connell, Washington, effective October 1, 2024;

The temporary curtailment of certain production lines and schedules across our manufacturing network in North America;

A reduction in operating expenses, including headcount reductions approximating 4% of our global workforce and the elimination of certain unfilled job positions; and

A $100 million reduction in fiscal 2025 capital expenditures to $750 million from our previous estimate of $850 million.

In connection with the Restructuring Plan, we expect to record in fiscal 2025 total pre-tax charges of $200 million to $250 million. We estimate that approximately 80% (or approximately $160 million to $200 million) of these charges will result in future cash expenditures and 20% (or approximately $40 million to $50 million) will be non-cash charges. These charges primarily relate to the costs associated with contracted raw potatoes that will not be used due to production line curtailments, accelerating depreciation of assets, the write-down of inventory and long-lived assets, employee severance and other one-time termination benefits, and other costs. We expect to record most of the pre-tax charges in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, with the remainder expected to be recorded during the second half of fiscal 2025.

For additional information regarding the Restructuring Plan, see “Part I, Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of this report.
