Pilgrim's Pride Corporation reported second quarter 2026 net sales of $4.6 billion, a 2.8% decrease from the prior year. GAAP net income fell sharply to $13.2 million, or $0.06 per share, down from $356 million in the same period last year, driven by commodity market pricing reductions and oversupply. Adjusted EBITDA declined 47.6% to $360.0 million, with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 7.8%. The company noted that while profitability declined year-over-year due to counter-seasonal market movements, margins improved sequentially from the previous quarter following plant upgrades and operational gains.
