Forward guidance
For the remainder of fiscal 2021, USDA indicates domestic protein production (beef, pork, chicken and turkey) to be flat as compared to fiscal 2020 levels. We expect sales to be near the upper end of $42 billion to $44 billion for fiscal 2021.
Tailwinds
- We anticipate Prepared Foods results will improve in fiscal 2021 as compared to fiscal 2020
- The Pork segment will remain strong, although not at fiscal 2020 levels.
- We expect the Beef segment to deliver fiscal 2021 results that are similar or marginally lower as compared to fiscal 2020.
- We expect improved results from our foreign operations in fiscal 2021.
- Capital expenditures include spending for capacity expansion, growth, safety, animal well-being, infrastructure replacements and upgrades, and operational improvements that are expected to result in production and labor efficiencies, yield improvements and sales channel flexibility.
Headwinds
- At current grain prices, we believe Chicken results will likely be lower in fiscal 2021 as compared to fiscal 2020.
- These challenges are anticipated to increase our operating costs and negatively impact our volumes in fiscal 2021.
- We estimate that we will incur approximately $440 million of direct incremental expenses associated with the impact of COVID-19; however, some of these incremental expenses may become permanent over time.
- USDA projects a slightly lower outlook for chicken production in fiscal 2021 as compared to fiscal 2020.
- Based on current futures prices, we expect feed costs to increase in fiscal 2021 as compared to fiscal 2020.
