(June 2, 2025)
 
Cal-Maine Foods,
 
Inc. (NASDAQ:
 
CALM) (“Cal-Maine
 
Foods” or
 
the
“Company”), today announced the closing of its acquisition of Echo Lake Foods.
The Company announced
 
in April that
 
it signed a
 
definitive agreement to
 
acquire Echo Lake
 
Foods in an
all-cash transaction
 
for approximately
 
$258 million,
 
which is
 
expected to
 
provide a
 
tax benefit
 
of ~$28
million equating
 
to
 
an effective
 
purchase price
 
of
 
~$230
 
million.
 
Echo
 
Lake Foods
 
produces,
 
packages,
markets
 
and
 
distributes
 
ready-to-eat
 
egg
 
products
 
and
 
breakfast
 
foods,
 
including
 
waffles,
 
pancakes,
scrambled
 
eggs,
 
frozen
 
cooked

Echo

had
 
annual
revenues of approximately $240 million in 2024 with a five-year CAGR of approximately
 
10%.
 
Highlights of the Transaction:
Compelling Strategic Rationale
Allows Cal-Maine Foods to
 
enter the large, growing
 
and highly stable value-added
 
food portion of
the egg category
Expands strategic
 
customer relationships
 
with retail,
 
quick service
 
restaurant and
 
other food
 
service
customers
Leverages Cal-Maine Foods’ extensive sales and supply chain distribution capabilities
Attractive Financial Returns
Provides access to additional long-term growth opportunities while reducing
 
earnings volatility
Estimated potential $15
 
million annual synergy
 
opportunity driven by
 
egg purchasing efficiencies
and SG&A savings
Expected mid-single digit percentage accretion to EPS (including synergies)
 
in FY2026.
Sherman Miller,
 
president and
 
chief executive
 
officer of Cal-Maine
 
Foods, stated,
 
“The addition
 
of Echo
Lake Foods advances our stated strategy to expand and diversify
 
our product portfolio and customer mix.
Echo Lake Foods is
 
a leading innovator with a
 
long history of providing quality ready-to-eat
 
egg products
and breakfast foods to
 
a blue-chip customer base. The
 
combined product lines and capabilities of
 
the two
companies
 
are
 
highly
 
complementary
 
and,
 
importantly,
 
we
 
share
 
similar
 
values
 
of
 
pursuing
 
operating
excellence and meeting the needs of our customers.
“The acquisition
 
of Echo
 
Lake Foods
 
meets our
 
disciplined set
 
of investment
 
criteria, including
 
relevant
geographic
 
markets,
 
operating
 
synergies,
 
product
 
mix,
 
proximity
 
to
 
customers
 
and
 
expected
 
financial
returns. The Echo
 
Lake Foods team
 
has built a
 
terrific business and
 
we look forward
 
to working together
on a
 
successful integration,
 
delivering on
 
a unique
 
opportunity for
 
our customers
 
and shareholders,
 
and
welcoming
 
Kathy
 
Brodhagen to
 
our
 
leadership
 
team
 
and
 
Echo

the

family,” added Miller.

The
 
announcement
 
and
 
completion
 
of
 
our
 
recent
 
Echo
 
Lake
 
Foods
 
acquisition
 
could
 
affect
 
the
relationships
 
of
 
the
 
Company
 
(including
 
Echo
 
Lake
 
Foods),
 
with
 
its
 
customers,

may
 
experience

challenges
 
in
 
integrating

As a
 
result, integrating Echo

if
 
the
 
business
 
of
 
Echo
 
Lake
 
Foods
 
is
 
successfully
 
integrated,
 
the
 
Company
 
may
 
not
 
realize
 
the
benefits
 
it
 
expects
 
from
 
the
 
acquisition,
 
including
 
the
 
synergies,
 
cost
 
savings,
 
earnings
 
accretion,
reduction
 
in
 
earnings
 
volatility,
 
return
 
of
