JBS N.V. Earnings Call Transcripts
Fiscal Year 2026
-
Q1 2026 saw record net sales of $22B (+11% YoY), but margins were pressured by U.S. beef headwinds and higher CapEx. Diversification and operational adjustments supported resilience, with Seara and JBS Brazil delivering strong margins. Leverage rose to 2.77x, but liquidity remains robust.
Fiscal Year 2025
-
Record annual revenue of $86 billion and net income of $2 billion were achieved, with strong global performance across segments and robust capital discipline. Continued investment in expansion, a $1 per share dividend, and a resilient balance sheet position the company for further growth amid ongoing market volatility.
-
Record Q3 net sales and strong global demand drove robust results, with all segments showing growth. U.S. beef margins remain pressured by tight supply, while Brazil and Australia benefit from export demand. Leverage is stable, and expansion projects and lifted export bans support future growth.
-
Record Q2 results with $21B in sales and $1.8B adjusted EBITDA, driven by strong poultry and prepared foods. U.S. beef margins remain pressured, but pork and Australia segments show resilience. Capital allocation includes $1.2B in dividends and a $400M buyback.
-
First-quarter net sales rose 8.5% and net profit jumped 50.5% year-over-year, with strong results in poultry, pork, and Australia offsetting US beef margin pressures from high cattle prices and tariffs. Leverage improved to 1.99x EBITDA, and $789 million in dividends were approved.
