Net sales of $2.4 billion, up 1%
Pre-tax earnings of $307 million, up 1%

COMMENTARY
"We had a solid quarter with sales growth from Refrigerated Foods, Grocery Products and International,"
said Jim Snee, chairman of the board, president and chief executive officer. "Three of our four segments
generated earnings growth, which keeps us on track to deliver our full-year guidance."

“Our new Hormel Deli Solutions division is off to a great start as the next growth engine for our
company," Snee said. "In addition, many branded value-added businesses performed well this quarter,
including our business in China and both Hormel and Jennie-O foodservice divisions. We also saw
impressive growth from many retail brands, including SPAM", Dinty Moore", Herdez”, Wholly
Guacamole”, Applegate", Natural Choice” and Hormel” pepperoni."

“Again this quarter, our well-developed strategy of shifting our mix toward branded, value-added product
in our domestic and international businesses more than offset significant declines in the commodity
businesses," Snee said. "We continue to intentionally transition our portfolio away from commodity
products and the associated earnings volatility."

CYTOSPORT DIVESTITURE
"Earlier this week we announced a definitive agreement to sell the CytoSport business to PepsiCo," Snee
said, "We made strong progress with innovation and sales growth in the food, drug and mass channel.
However, it became clear to us over time that PepsiCo is the right long-term owner of this business as they
have deep expertise in this space. PepsiCo has been a long-standing distribution partner for CytoSport and
the Muscle Milk" brand, which puts them in a strong position to grow this dynamic business."
