Insights
Mission Produce has posted a record revenue increase of 35% for its fiscal second quarter of 2024. This robust growth, driven primarily by a 22% rise in per-unit avocado selling prices and an 8% increase in avocado volume sold, highlights strong consumer demand. The company's net income of $7.0 million compared to a net loss of $(4.6) million in the same period last year is a significant turnaround, demonstrating effective cost management and improved operational efficiency.

As a retail investor, this signifies a potentially lucrative outlook in the short term, despite anticipated challenges due to El Niño's impact on the Peruvian avocado crop.

The notable increase in avocado prices and sales volume in Mission Produce’s Marketing & Distribution segment indicates strong market demand for avocados. This trend is likely driven by broader consumer preferences for healthier food options, which avocados fit well into. The company's ability to leverage this demand and implement effective pricing strategies has translated into significant revenue growth.
The Blueberries segment also showed strong performance, with a significant revenue increase to
However, the outlook for the next quarter suggests potential challenges with the Peruvian avocado crop due to warmer temperatures. This could contract supply and affect prices, impacting overall profitability. Nevertheless, Mission Produce's proactive approach in sourcing third-party fruit and focusing on cost optimization should help mitigate some of these risks.
For retail investors, it's important to consider both the company's strong current performance and its strategies for managing upcoming challenges.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
Cash and cash equivalents were
The Company’s operating cash flows are seasonal in nature and can be temporarily influenced by working capital shifts resulting from varying payment terms to growers in different source regions. In addition, the Company is building its growing crops inventory in its International Farming segment during the first half of the year for ultimate harvest and sale that will occur during the second half of the fiscal year. While these increases in working capital can cause operating cash flows to be unfavorable in individual quarters, it is not indicative of operating cash performance that management expects to realize for the full year.

Outlook
For the third quarter of fiscal year 2024, the Company is providing the following industry outlooks that will drive performance:
- Warmer temperatures correlated with El Niño have persisted through the development of our 2024 Peruvian avocado crop. The Company expects these warmer temperatures to negatively affect harvest yields for the second half of the fiscal year, reducing exportable volumes from owned farms to be more than
50% lower than recent seasons. The Company expects the decrease in volume will negatively impact absorption of fixed costs at its Peruvian farms. Though lower volumes are expected to generally support higher pricing, the Company does not expect higher pricing levels to offset the negative impact of volume decreases on gross profit for the International Farming segment for the fiscal year. - Overall industry volumes are expected to decline by 10
-15% in the fiscal 2024 third quarter versus the prior year period, primarily due to an earlier conclusion to the 2023/2024 Mexican harvest season and a weaker Peruvian harvest outlook. - Pricing is expected to be relatively flat on a sequential basis, which translates to an increase of approximately
15% on a year-over-year basis as compared to the$1.36 per pound average experienced in third quarter of fiscal 2023. - Capital expenditures now expected in the range of
$40 t o$45 million , reflecting an acceleration of planned investment in the Company’s blueberry joint venture to support near-term growth utilizing operating cash flows generated during the strong 2023/2024 harvest season.
