Forward guidance

The industry is expecting third quarter volumes to increase sequentially, but remain lower by approximately 10-15% versus the prior year period, primarily due to ongoing supply constraints in Mexico that are not expected to alleviate until the fiscal fourth quarter. Based on the expectation for sequentially improving volumes, the Company believes that the pricing environment should begin to rationalize during fiscal third quarter.

Tailwinds

  • Third quarter volumes are expected to increase sequentially.
  • Supply from Peru and California will partially offset third quarter supply pressure.
  • Pricing environment should begin to rationalize during fiscal third quarter.
  • Consumer demand remains strong.
  • Mission is uniquely able to address volume constraints through its strategy to invest in vertical integration.
