The company expected full-year 2025 net sales to be flat, with volume growth in Texture & Healthful Solutions or T&HS offset by a weaker price mix due to lower raw material cost pass-through and anticipated foreign exchange impacts.

Both reported and adjusted operating income are expected to increase by mid-single digits for full-year 2025.

For full-year 2025, the company expects reported EPS of $11.25 to $11.75 and adjusted EPS of $11.10 to $11.60, based on tariff levels as of July 2025 and excluding integration, restructuring, and potential impairment costs.

Net sales are projected to remain flat, with growth in T&HS volumes offset by lower price mix from raw material cost pass-through and foreign exchange headwinds.

Reported and adjusted operating income are both expected to rise by mid-single digits.

Segment outlooks include low double-digit operating income growth for T&HS, low single-digit growth for Food & Industrial Ingredients ATAM, a low single-digit decline for Food & Industrial Ingredients U.S./CAN, and breakeven performance for All Other.
