Commenting on the results, Carl McCann, Executive Chairman, said:

“The successful completion of the Ecuador port sale post quarter end for net proceeds of approximately $95 million supports our continued investment in growth opportunities, including recent acquisitions in EMEA.

We are pleased to deliver a second quarter result in line with our expectations. The quarter once again demonstrated the resilience of our diversified business model and our ability to navigate a challenging operating environment as we target full-year Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $400 million for 2026.”

Group Results - Second Quarter

Revenue increased 2.9%, or $71.0 million, primarily due to positive operational performance in the Diversified Fresh Produce - Americas & ROW segment and a favorable impact from foreign currency translation of $30.3 million. On a like-for-like basis², revenue increased 1.7%, or $40.7 million.

Gross Profit decreased $23.0 million, primarily due to higher cost of sales which were impacted by higher fruit sourcing costs in the Fresh Fruit segment, partially offset by higher revenue.

Operating Income decreased $55.7 million primarily due to lower Gross Profit, higher SMG&A expenses primarily due to a non-recurring charge associated with the settlement of a historical legal matter and some restructuring costs, and higher gains on asset sales in the prior year following the sale of land in Hawaii.

Other income increased year over year, primarily reflecting favorable fair value adjustments on financial instruments.

Net Income increased to $35.1 million from $18.0 million in the prior year. The prior year was impacted by a loss of $35.0 million in discontinued operations (Fresh Vegetables). The year over year increase also reflected higher other income, lower interest expense and lower tax expense, partially offset by lower Operating Income.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased 14.8%, or $20.4 million, primarily driven by higher fruit sourcing costs in the Fresh Fruit segment, partially offset by good performance in the Diversified Fresh Produce - Americas & ROW segment, as well as a favorable impact of foreign currency translation of $1.4 million.

Adjusted Net Income decreased 17.7%, or $9.4 million, predominantly due to the decrease in Adjusted EBITDA noted above, partially offset by lower tax expense and interest expense. Adjusted Diluted EPS for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was $0.46 compared to $0.55 in the prior year.

Second Quarter Segmental Commentary

Fresh Fruit

Revenue of $972.8 million is in line with prior year. Higher volumes of bananas sold in Europe and higher underlying banana pricing in North America were partially offset by lower banana volumes in North America. Pineapple volumes were lower across all markets, primarily due to adverse weather conditions affecting fruit availability.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased 30.9%, or $22.5 million, primarily driven by higher fruit sourcing costs, elevated shipping costs in both European and North American markets due to higher fuel costs, higher pineapple growing costs resulting from adverse weather conditions, as well as the continued strengthening of the Costa Rican Colón against the U.S. Dollar.

Diversified Fresh Produce – EMEA

Revenue increased 1.0%, or $10.6 million, primarily due to the favorable impact of foreign currency translation of $29.9 million, as a result of the strengthening of the Swedish krona and euro against the U.S. Dollar, as well as underlying growth in Scandinavia partially offset by lower revenue in Spain. On a like-for-like basis, revenue decreased 1.7%, or $19.2 million.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased 6.2%, or $3.1 million, primarily due to weaker performance in South Africa, the Netherlands and Spain. These decreases were partially offset by a favorable impact of $1.5 million from foreign currency translation, as well as strong performance in Scandinavia. On a like-for-like basis, Adjusted EBITDA decreased 8.2%, or $4.0 million.

Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas & ROW

Revenue increased 13.9%, or $53.8 million, primarily driven by higher volumes in our North America business, both from seasonal timing benefits with North American cherries and by good underlying growth in key products including kiwi and avocados. There was also higher revenue in our southern hemisphere export business due to positive season end pricing adjustments.

Adjusted EBITDA increased 33.8%, or $5.2 million, driven by a strong performance in our North American business, driven both by positive volume growth in kiwi and avocados and seasonal timing differences in cherries, as well as the continued benefit of the partial restructuring of our berry operations in the fourth quarter of 2025.

Capital Expenditures

Cash capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were $42.5 million. Expenditures included farming investments in Latin America, investments in distribution facilities and ripening rooms in Europe, as well as other machinery and equipment related to blueberry and avocado packing in Europe.

Free Cash Flow from Continuing Operations, Net Debt and Net Leverage

Free cash flow from continuing operations was an outflow of $51.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to an outflow of $132.6 million in the prior year. The improvement in free cash flow was due to lower seasonal working capital outflows and lower capital expenditures in the current year. Net Debt and Net Leverage as of June 30, 2026 was $746.1 million and 2.0x, respectively.

Net debt at quarter end was impacted by the first step of the Ecuador port sale transaction. As part of the transaction, the Company completed a pre-closing ownership restructuring in May, acquiring the remaining minority interest in the port business. The second and final step, the sale of the port business, closed on July 1, 2026 and the associated proceeds will be reflected in third quarter Net Debt and Net Leverage. The cumulative net cash proceeds of the Ecuador port sale transaction are expected to be approximately $95.0 million, including the pre-closing ownership restructuring, cash taxes to be paid and other transaction related costs.

Dividend

On August 7, 2026, the Board of Directors of Dole plc declared a cash dividend for the second quarter of 2026 of $0.085 per share, payable on October 7, 2026 to shareholders of record on September 16, 2026. A cash dividend of $0.085 per share was paid on July 8, 2026 for the first quarter of 2026.

Share Repurchase Program

During the quarter, we repurchased 719,290 shares at an average price of $13.88 per share, totaling $10.0 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, we repurchased 1,025,660 shares at an average price of $14.25 per share, totaling $14.6 million. As of June 30, 2026, $85.4 million remained available for repurchase under the share repurchase program.

Outlook for Fiscal Year 2026 (forward-looking statement)

As we move into the second half of the year, fuel and shipping costs remain elevated and geopolitical developments continue to create uncertainty. While some of the sharp cost increases experienced during the second quarter appear to be moderating, the operating environment remains complex.

Consumer demand across our key markets has remained resilient, supported by long-term health and wellness trends. We also expect to benefit from contractual pricing mechanisms and cost saving initiatives in Fresh Fruit, the effectiveness of our dynamic pricing model across the Diversified businesses, and positive returns from recent investments and development activity.

Taking these factors together, we are targeting full-year Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $400 million for 2026.

We continue to expect routine capital expenditures of approximately $100 million and interest expense of approximately $58 million for the full year.

Net Debt and Net Leverage Reconciliation – Unaudited

Net Debt is the primary measure used by management to analyze the Company’s capital structure. Net Debt is a non-GAAP financial measure, calculated as cash and cash equivalents, less current and long-term debt. It also excludes debt discounts and debt issuance costs. Net Leverage is calculated as total Net Debt divided by Last Twelve Months ("LTM") Adjusted EBITDA as of the period end. The calculation of Net Debt and Net Leverage as of June 30, 2026 is presented below. Net Debt as of June 30, 2026 was $746.1 million and Net Leverage was 2.0x.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Dole plc’s results are determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

In addition to its results under U.S. GAAP, in this Press Release, we also present Dole plc’s Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS, Free Cash Flow from Continuing Operations, Net Debt and Net Leverage, which are supplemental measures of financial performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, U.S. GAAP (collectively, the "non-GAAP financial measures"). We present these non-GAAP financial measures, because we believe they assist investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results, cash flows or any other measure prescribed by U.S. GAAP. Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by any of the adjusted items or that any projections and estimates will be realized in their entirety or at all. In addition, adjustment items that are excluded from non-GAAP results can have a material impact on equivalent GAAP earnings, financial measures and cash flows.

Adjusted EBIT is calculated from GAAP net income by: (1) subtracting the income or adding the loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes; (2) adding the income tax expense or subtracting the income tax benefit; (3) adding interest expense; (4) adding mark to market losses or subtracting mark to market gains related to unrealized impacts from certain derivative instruments and foreign currency denominated borrowings, realized impacts on noncash settled foreign currency denominated borrowings, net foreign currency impacts on liquidated entities and fair value movements on contingent consideration; (5) other items which are separately stated based on materiality, which during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, included subtracting the gain or adding the loss on the disposal of business interests, subtracting the gain or adding the loss on asset sales for assets held for sale and actively marketed property or sales-type leases, adding impairment charges or held for sale classification losses on property, plant and equipment and lease assets, adding or subtracting asset write-downs from extraordinary events, net of insurance proceeds, subtracting interest income on deferred transaction consideration, adding acquisition and transaction costs, adding restructuring charges and costs for legal matters not in the ordinary course of business and adding debt refinancing expenses; and (6) the Company’s share of these items from equity method investments.

Last Twelve Months ("LTM") Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, for the last twelve months as of the period end, which for the six months ended June 30, 2026, is calculated as subtracting the Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from the Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2025 and then adding Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2026. LTM Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2025 is the same as Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Adjusted Net Income is calculated from GAAP net income attributable to Dole plc by: (1) subtracting the income or adding the loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes; (2) adding amortization charges on intangible assets; (3) adding mark to market losses or subtracting mark to market gains related to unrealized impacts from certain derivative instruments and foreign currency denominated borrowings, realized impacts on noncash settled foreign currency denominated borrowings, net foreign currency impacts on liquidated entities and fair value movements on contingent consideration; (4) other items which are separately stated based on materiality, which during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, included subtracting the gain or adding the loss on the disposal of business interests, subtracting the gain or adding the loss on asset sales for assets held for sale and actively marketed property or sales-type leases, adding impairment charges or held for sale classification losses on property, plant and equipment and lease assets, adding or subtracting asset write-downs from extraordinary events, net of insurance proceeds, adding acquisition and transaction costs, adding restructuring charges and costs for legal matters not in the ordinary course of business and adding debt refinancing expenses; (5) the Company’s share of these items from equity method investments; (6) excluding the tax effect of these items and discrete tax adjustments; and (7) excluding the effect of these items attributable to non-controlling interests.

Adjusted Earnings per Share is calculated from Adjusted Net Income divided by diluted weighted average number of shares in the applicable period.

Net Debt is a non-GAAP financial measure, calculated as GAAP cash and cash equivalents, less GAAP current and long-term debt. It also excludes GAAP unamortized debt discounts and debt issuance costs.

Net Leverage is a non-GAAP financial measure, calculated as Net Debt divided by LTM Adjusted EBITDA, both of which are defined above.

Free cash flow from continuing operations is calculated from GAAP net cash used in or provided by operating activities for continuing operations less GAAP capital expenditures.

Like-for-like basis refers to the U.S. GAAP measure or non-GAAP financial measure excluding the impact of foreign currency translation movements and acquisitions and divestitures. The impact of foreign currency translation represents an estimate of the effect of translating the results of operations denominated in a foreign currency to U.S. Dollar at prior year average rates, as compared to current year average rates.

Dole is not able to provide a reconciliation for projected FY'26 results without taking unreasonable efforts.
