Insights
Mission Produce's Q1 FY2025 results show impressive top-line growth with revenue up 29% to $334.2 million, though profitability metrics reveal some pressure points. The company achieved a return to profitability with net income of $3.9 million ($0.05 per share) compared to breakeven last year, while adjusted net income rose to $7.1 million ($0.10 per share) from $6.7 million.
The Marketing & Distribution segment drove performance with average selling prices up 25% coupled with 5% higher volumes - a significant achievement considering price elasticity concerns in consumer goods. However, Adjusted EBITDA declined 8% to $17.7 million, reflecting margin compression from higher Mexican fruit costs.
The Blueberries segment delivered impressive 70% volume growth but faced 33% lower selling prices, resulting in a 29% decrease in segment EBITDA. This illustrates the price/volume tradeoff many producers face in agricultural commodities.
Concerning cash flow metrics, the company reported $1.2 million used in operations versus $9.5 million generated last year, primarily from working capital increases due to higher inventory and receivable balances. Cash position decreased to $40.1 million from $58.0 million at fiscal year-end.
Looking ahead, management expects Q2 industry volumes consistent with last year but pricing approximately 5% higher, suggesting continued demand strength despite economic headwinds. The solid volume projections and anticipated pricing power point to ongoing momentum in their core business.
Mission's Q1 results illustrate the delicate supply-demand balance in specialty produce markets. Their performance amid industry supply constraints in Mexico showcases their robust sourcing network's ability to maintain volume despite challenging market conditions. The 25% avocado price increase coupled with 5% volume growth defies typical price elasticity expectations, indicating strong underlying demand resilience for avocados despite inflationary pressures on consumers.
The company's diversification strategy is proving effective, with their blueberry acreage expansion delivering 70% volume growth that partially offset margin pressure in avocados. This cross-category approach provides a natural hedge against the inherent volatility in specialized produce markets.
Their Q2 outlook highlights an important transitional period in global avocado sourcing, with Mexican volumes tapering while California and Peru harvests accelerate. This geographic diversification will be important as potential tariff situations remain uncertain. The expected 5% year-over-year price improvement suggests sustained consumer demand despite economic pressures.
The company's $50-55 million capital expenditure plan demonstrates continued commitment to vertical integration and supply chain control. Their investments in Guatemalan packhouse construction and Peruvian orchard development position them to further reduce reliance on any single growing region, creating more stable long-term supply.
For the agricultural sector, Mission's results indicate healthy consumption patterns for premium produce categories despite broader economic concerns, suggesting consumer prioritization of fresh, nutrient-dense foods even as discretionary spending tightens in other categories.

CEO Message
Steve Barnard, CEO of Mission, stated, “We were pleased to meet robust consumer demand in our fiscal first quarter and deliver volume growth despite industry supply challenges in Mexico. Our Marketing & Distribution segment drove volume growth despite higher pricing, demonstrating the underlying strength of the category. Additionally, our strategic investments in our Blueberries segment supported significant volume growth which led to solid segment EBITDA contribution. While the operating environment led to lower per unit avocado margins this year due to higher fruit costs, our diversification across categories and markets helped us deliver solid bottom-line results against a tough year-ago comparison. Looking ahead, while the impact of tariffs on Mexican supply dynamics continues to be uncertain and fluid, we will focus on leveraging our competitive strengths in the California and Peruvian sourcing markets to deliver for our customers. Combined with our strong balance sheet and disciplined approach to capital allocation, we believe we're well-positioned to continue creating value for our shareholders.”

International Farming
The vast majority of fruit sales from our International Farming segment are made to the Marketing & Distribution segment, with the remainder of revenue largely derived from services provided to third parties and our Blueberries segment. Affiliated sales are concentrated in the second half of the fiscal year in alignment with the Peruvian avocado harvest season, which typically runs from April through September of each year. As a result, adjusted EBITDA for the International Farming segment is generally concentrated in the third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year in alignment with the timing of sales. In addition, the Company operates approximately 700 acres of mangos in Peru. The timing of the mango harvest is generally concentrated in the fiscal second quarter.

Outlook
For the second quarter of fiscal year 2025, the Company is providing the following industry outlooks that will drive performance. Importantly, these assumptions do not consider any influence from potential tariffs that the U.S. administration and North American trading partners are considering:
- Industry volumes in the fiscal 2025 second quarter are expected to be consistent with the prior year period. Mexico volumes should taper off during the quarter as the industry harvest comes in lighter than initial expectations. However, California and Peruvian harvests should get off to a faster start based upon improved weather conditions, which should mitigate the impact on overall available volumes.
- At projected volume levels, pricing is expected to be higher on a year-over-year basis by approximately
5% compared to the$1.59 per pound average experienced in the second quarter of fiscal 2024, indicative of continued strength in demand. - Harvest timing of the Company’s Peruvian blueberry season this year is similar to the prior year with approximately
20% of the harvest to be sold through in the fiscal second quarter, which should translate to an increase in volumes sold of approximately 35-40% when applied to a larger total harvest from our farms for the 2024/2025 season. Average sales prices are expected to decline sequentially but be consistent with prices experienced in the second quarter of fiscal 2024. - For fiscal 2025, total capital expenditures are expected to remain in the range of
$50 t o$55 million .

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains the non-GAAP financial measures “adjusted net income” and “adjusted EBITDA.” Management believes these measures provide useful information for analyzing the underlying business results. These measures are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for or superior to, the comparable financial measures by generally accepted accounting principles.
Adjusted net income (loss) refers to net income (loss) attributable to Mission Produce, before stock-based compensation expense, unrealized gain (loss) on derivative financial instruments, foreign currency gain (loss), farming costs for nonproductive orchards (which represents land lease costs), recognition of deferred ERP costs, transaction costs, amortization of inventory adjustments and intangible asset recognized from business combinations, further adjusted by any special, non-recurring, or one-time items such as remeasurement, impairment or discrete tax charges that are distortive to results, and tax effects of these items, if any, and the tax-effected impact of these non-GAAP adjustments attributable to noncontrolling interest, allocable to the noncontrolling owners based on their percentage of ownership interest.
Adjusted EBITDA refers to net income (loss), before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, other income (expense), and income (loss) from equity method investees, further adjusted by asset impairment and disposals, farming costs for nonproductive orchards (which represents land lease costs), recognition of deferred ERP costs, transaction costs, and any special, non-recurring, or one-time items such as remeasurements or impairments, and any portion of these items attributable to the noncontrolling interest. Effective for the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company made a change in presentation of its reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to its comparable GAAP financial measure to include a subtotal of the non-GAAP adjustments before the effect of the noncontrolling interest adjustment called “adjusted EBITDA before adjustment for noncontrolling interest.” The presentation change has no impact to total adjusted EBITDA. The Company believes the addition of the subtotal within the reconciliation is useful because it better aligns with management’s sequence of review of the information in the reconciliation.
Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measure are provided in the table at the end of this press release.
