Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc. (FDP) Q4 2025 Earnings Call Transcript
My prior buy rating on Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc. gets reaffirmed, agreeing with today's bullish consensus of buy/strong buy (quant rating, analysts, Wall St). Despite tariff and macro headwinds, FDP has benefited from its balanced portfolio across multiple fruit/vegetable categories serving the global market need. Key positives for FDP are low balance sheet risk factors, proven cashflow and dividend growth, above-average dividend yield, and the strength of its global brand name and network.
Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc. remains a Buy as shares are undervalued despite rising revenue, profits, and cash flows. FDP's diversified fresh and value-added product segment, especially bananas and pineapples, drives steady growth amid industry challenges like tariffs and climate impacts. Valuation is attractive, with FDP trading cheaper than most peers on EV/EBITDA and price-to-cash-flow metrics.
