Mission Produce reported a weak fiscal Q2 2026 and executed major strategic moves. Net sales fell to $290.9 million from $380.3 million, as avocado prices dropped 36% while volume rose 15%. Gross profit declined to $20.5 million, and the company swung to a net loss attributable to Mission of $7.2 million, or $(0.10) per share, versus earnings of $3.1 million a year earlier.
Adjusted EBITDA dropped to $7.1 million from $19.1 million, pressured by lower per‑unit avocado margins, weaker blueberry results and $6.4 million of Calavo transaction advisory costs. Operating cash flow for the first six months was negative $21.0 million, reflecting seasonal working capital needs and inventory build.
After quarter‑end, Mission closed the acquisition of Calavo for approximately $465 million, funded with 17,530,823 Mission shares and about $266 million in cash, supported by new term loans under a $550 million senior credit facility. The board also authorized a new $100 million share repurchase program over 36 months, replacing a prior plan.
