Dolph
 
Baker,
 
chairman
 
and
 
chief
 
executive
 
officer
 
of
 
Cal-Maine
 
Foods,
 
commented,
 
“We
 
are
pleased
 
to
 
begin
 
fiscal
 
2023
 
with
 
record
 
quarterly
 
sales
 
for
 
Cal-Maine
 
Foods.
 
We
 
benefitted
 
from
higher
 
average
 
selling
 
prices
 
and
 
record
 
specialty
 
egg
 
sales
 
volumes
 
leading
 
to
 
historic
 
Company
record
 
revenue
 
for
 
both
 
conventional
 
and
 
specialty
 
shell
 
eggs.
 
We
 
continue
 
to
 
focus
 
on
 
offering
consumers
 
a
 
choice
 
with
 
a
 
favorable
 
product
 
mix
 
in
 
line
 
with
 
changing
 
demand
 
trends.
 
We
 
believe
this
 
strategy
 
has
 
created
 
momentum
 
across
 
retail
 
channels
 
and
 
delivered
 
a
 
performance
 
that
 
has
outpaced
 
the
 
industry.
“Our
 
operations
 
ran
 
well
 
during
 
the
 
quarter,
 
and
 
we
 
are
 
pleased
 
with
 
our
 
ability
 
to
 
manage
the
 
business
 
despite
 
significant
 
inflationary
 
pressures
 
contributing
 
to
 
rising
 
costs
 
for
 
feed,
 
labor,
packaging,
 
and
 
distribution,
 
among
 
other
 
costs.
 
We
 
remain
 
focused
 
on
 
the
 
aspects
 
of
 
the
 
business
we
 
can
 
control
 
with
 
a
 
shared
 
commitment
 
across
 
Cal-Maine
 
Foods’
 
operations
 
to
 
be
 
the
 
most
efficient
 
and
 
sustainable
 
producer
 
of
 
fresh
 
shell
 
eggs
 
and
 
egg
 
products
 
in
 
the
 
United
 
States.”
 
Max
 
Bowman,
 
chief
 
financial
 
officer
 
of
 
Cal-Maine
 
Foods,
 
added,
 
“Our
 
financial
 
performance
over
 
the
 
quarter
 
reflects
 
our
 
ability
 
to
 
execute
 
our
 
operating
 
strategy
 
in
 
dynamic
 
conditions,
 
while
continuing
 
to
 
meet
 
the
 
expanding
 
needs
 
of
 
our
 
customers.
 
The
 
significant
 
increase
 
in
 
pricing
 
and
favorable
 
volume
 
trends
 
in
 
specialty
 
egg
 
sales,
 
along
 
with
 
efficient
 
expense
 
management,
 
led
 
to
improved
 
profitability
 
with
 
a
 
gross
 
profit
 
margin
 
of
 
33.0%
 
for
 
the
 
first
 
quarter
 
of
 
fiscal
 
2023.
“Egg
 
prices
 
continued
 
to
 
move
 
higher
 
during
 
the
 
quarter
 
as
 
supply
 
tightened
 
due
 
to
 
the
impact
 
of
 
the
 
highly

compared
 
with

in
 
the

The
 
Company
 
reported
 
net

of
 
$125.3

or
 
$2.58
 
per

For

million
 
versus
254.6
 
million
 
in
 
the

quarter,
 
in
 
part
 
driven
 
by
 
strong
 
sales
 
volumes
 
in
 
the
 
specialty

category.
 
Conventional
 
egg
 
volumes

decreased
 
2.3%

while

increased
 
by

This
 
increase
 
in
 
demand
 
for
 
specialty

was
positively
 
affected
 
by
 
the
 
higher
 
conventional

The

continued
to

through
 
a
 
tight
 
labor
 
market
 
with
 
higher

as
 
evidenced
 
by

Product Mix & Cage-Free Eggs
Providing
 
customers
 
with
 
a
 
favorable
 
product
 
mix
 
is
 
an
 
important
 
differentiator
 
for
 
Cal-
Maine
 
Foods.
 
Specialty
 
eggs
 
are
 
an
 
integral
 
part
 
of
 
the
 
Company’s
 
growth
 
strategy
 
and
 
remain
 
a
primary
 
focus
 
for
 
fiscal
 
2023.
 
Cal-Maine
 
Foods
 
continues
 
to
 
make
 
significant
 
investments
 
in
production
 
capacity
 
to
 
meet
 
the
 
demand
 
for
 
specialty
 
eggs,
 
including
 
cage-free
 
eggs,
 
as
 
customer
demand
 
has
 
evolved
 
in
 
line
 
with
 
state
 
requirements.
A
 
significant
 
number
 
of
 
Cal-Maine
 
Foods’
 
customers
 
have
 
previously
 
announced
 
goals
 
to
offer
 
cage-free
 
eggs
 
exclusively
 
on
 
or
 
before
 
2026,
 
subject
 
in
 
most
 
cases
 
to
 
availability
 
of
 
supply,
affordability
 
and
 
customer
 
demand,
 
among
 
other
 
contingencies.
 
Some
 
of
 
these
 
customers
 
have
recently
 
changed
 
those
 
goals
 
to
 
offer
 
70%
 
cage-free
 
eggs
 
by
 
the
 
end
 
of
 
2030.
 
The
 
Company’s
customers
 
typically
 
do
 
not
 
commit
 
to
 
long-term
 
purchases
 
of
 
specific
 
quantities
 
or
 
types
 
of
 
eggs,
and
 
as
 
a
 
result,
 
it
 
is
 
difficult
 
to
 
accurately
 
predict
 
customer
 
requirements
 
for
 
cage-free
 
eggs.
 
The
Company
 
continues
 
to
 
engage
 
with
 
its
 
customers
 
in
 
efforts
 
to
 
achieve
 
a
 
smooth
 
transition
 
toward
meeting
 
their
 
announced
 
goals
 
and
 
needs.
 
Sales
 
of
 
cage-free
 
eggs
 
represented
 
approximately
 
19.4%
of
 
shell
 
egg
 
revenues
 
for
 
the
 
first
 
quarter
 
of
 
fiscal
 
2023.
 
Cage-free
 
dozens
 
sold
 
increased
 
58%
 
in
 
the
first

fiscal
 
2023
 
as
 
compared
 
to
 
the
 
first
 
quarter
 
of

2022.
Cal-Maine
 
Foods
 
has
 
invested
 
significant
 
capital
 
in
 
recent
 
years
 
to
 
acquire
 
and
 
construct
cage-free
 
facilities
 
and
 
remains
 
focused
 
on
 
future
 
expansion
 
projects
 
that
 
will
 
include
 
cage-free
facilities.
 
At
 
the
 
same
 
time,
 
the
 
Company
 
understands
 
the
 
importance
 
of
 
continuing
 
to
 
provide
 
more
affordable
 
conventional
 
eggs
 
in
 
order
 
to
 
provide
 
its
 
customers
 
with
 
a

of

choices
 
and
 
to
address
 
hunger
 
in
 
more
 
communities.

The
 
USDA
also
 
reported
 
that
 
the
 
hatch
 
from
 
April
 
2022
 
through
 
August
 
2022
 
decreased
 
0.5%
 
as
 
compared
with
 
the
 
prior-year
 
period.
 
As
 
of
 
September
 
1,
 
2022,
 
however,
 
eggs
 
in
 
incubators
 
were
 
up
 
9.0%
 
year-
over-year,
 
indicating
 
that
 
layer
 
flocks
 
may
 
increase
 
in
 
the
 
future.
Cal-Maine
 
Foods
 
continues
 
to
 
monitor
 
the
 
current
 
outbreak
 
of
 
highly
 
pathogenic
 
avian
influenza
 
(“HPAI”),
 
that
 
was
 
first
 
detected
 
in
 
commercial
 
flocks
 
in
 
the
 
U.S.
 
in
 
February
 
2022
 
and,
which
 
was
 
most
 
recently
 
detected
 
in
 
commercial
 
flocks
 
in
 
the
 
U.S.
 
in
 
September
 
2022.
 
According
to
 
the
 
U.S.
 
Centers
 
for
 
Disease
 
Control
 
and
 
Prevention,
 
these
 
detections
 
do
 
not
 
present
 
an
immediate
 
public
 
health
 
concern.
 
There
 
have
 
been
 
no
 
positive
 
tests
 
for
 
HPAI
 
at
 
any
 
Cal-Maine
Foods’
 
owned
 
or
 
contracted
 
production
 
facility
 
as
 
of
 
September
 
27,
 
2022.
 
The
 
USDA
 
division
 
of
Animal
 
and
 
Plant
 
Health
 
Inspection
 
Service
 
(“APHIS”)
 
reported
 
that
 
approximately
 
35.6
 
million
commercial
 
layer
 
hens
 
and
 
1.0
 
million
 
pullets
 
have
 
been
 
depopulated
 
due
 
to
 
HPAI.
 
According
 
to
APHIS,
 
the
 
most
 
recently
 
reported
 
outbreaks
 
of
 
HPAI
 
affecting
 
commercial
 
layer
 
hens
 
and
 
pullets
occurred
 
September
 
21,
 
2022,
 
and
 
June
 
9,
 
2022,
 
respectively.
 
The
 
Company
 
believes
 
that
 
HPAI
outbreak
 
will
 
continue
 
to
 
have
 
an
 
impact
 
on
 
the
 
overall
 
supply
 
of
 
eggs
 
through
 
the
 
balance
 
of

and
 
possibly

According
 
to
 
LEAP
 
Market
 
Analytics,
 
layer
 
hen
 
inventory
 
is
 
not
projected
 
to
 
exceed
 
the
 
320
 
million
 
mark
 
until
 
October
 
of
 
2023.
While
 
no
 
farm
 
is
 
immune
 
from
 
HPAI,
 
Cal-Maine
 
Foods
 
believes
 
it
 
has
 
implemented
 
and
continues
 
to
 
maintain
 
robust
 
biosecurity
 
programs
 
across
 
all
 
its
 
locations.
 
The
 
Company
 
is
 
also
working
 
closely
 
with
 
federal,
 
state
 
and
 
local
 
government
 
officials
 
and
 
focused
 
industry
 
groups
 
to
mitigate
 
the
 
risk
 
of
 
this
 
and
 
future
 
outbreaks
 
and
 
effectively
 
manage
 
a
 
response,
 
if
 
needed.
Dividend Payment
For
 
first
 
quarter
 
2023,
 
Cal-Maine
 
Foods
 
will
 
pay
 
a
 
cash
 
dividend
 
of
 
approximately
 
$o.85
 
per
share
 
to
 
holders
 
of
 
its
 
common
 
and
 
Class
 
A
 
common
 
stock.
 
Pursuant
 
to
 
Cal-Maine
 
Foods’
 
variable
dividend
 
policy,
 
for
 
each
 
quarter
 
in
 
which
 
the
 
Company
 
reports
 
net
 
income,
 
the
 
Company
 
pays
 
a
cash
 
dividend
 
to
 
shareholders
 
in
 
an
 
amount
 
equal
 
to
 
one-third
 
of
 
such
 
quarterly
 
income.
 
Following
a
 
quarter
 
for
 
which
 
the
 
Company
 
does
 
not
 
report
 
net
 
income,
 
the
 
Company
 
will
 
not
 
pay
 
a
 
dividend
with
 
respect
 
to
 
that
 
quarter
 
or
 
for
 
a
 
subsequent
 
profitable
 
quarter
 
until
 
the
 
Company
 
is
 
profitable
on
 
a
 
cumulative
 
basis
 
computed
 
from
 
the
 
date
 
of
 
the
 
most
 
recent
 
quarter
 
for
 
which
 
a
 
dividend
 
was
paid.
 
The
 
amount
 
paid
 
per
 
share
 
will
 
vary
 
based
 
on
 
the
 
number
 
of
 
outstanding
 
shares
 
on
 
the
 
record
date.
 
The
 
dividend
 
is
 
payable
 
on
 
November
 
10,
 
2022,
 
to
 
holders
 
of
 
record
 
on
 
October
 
26,
 
2022.
