    Priya Ohri-Gupta's questions to Pilgrims Pride Corp (PPC) leadership • Q4 2024

    Question

    Priya Ohri-Gupta asked about the 2025 outlook for working capital's contribution to free cash flow, given input cost volatility. She also inquired about the potential business impact of proposed tariffs, particularly with Mexico.

    Answer

    CFO Matthew Galvanoni stated that after a significant working capital benefit in 2024, he anticipates a more 'flattish' impact in 2025, not a major drag but not the same level of uplift. CEO Fabio Sandri expressed doubt about major tariff disruptions with Mexico, citing Mexico's concern for food inflation, but noted that Pilgrim's large in-country operation provides a natural hedge against potential trade policy changes.
