GAAP profitability was heavily impacted by $7.4 billion of non-cash impairment losses, leading to an operating loss of $6.4 billion and net loss of $5.5 billion. Gross profit margin fell 200 bps to 32.4%, while Adjusted Gross Profit Margin held at 34.1%. Adjusted Operating Income declined 18.4% to $1.0 billion and Adjusted EPS fell 18.8% to $0.56.

The Kraft Heinz Company amended and restated its by-laws effective July 22, 2026. The changes clarify the Board’s ability to postpone, reschedule, or cancel stockholder meetings and refine who may chair meetings, including allowing any director or officer to serve as chairperson.
The amendments redefine a quorum as holders of a majority in voting power of outstanding shares entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, and adjust rules for adjourned meetings. They also expand disclosure and procedural requirements for stockholder business proposals and director nominations, including additional background on proponents, beneficial owners, and nominees, and limit nominations to the number of seats up for election.
Other updates increase the maximum duration of a proxy from 11 months to three years, align notice, record date, written consent, and remote participation provisions with Delaware law, address Board and committee meeting mechanics, and designate U.S. federal district courts as the exclusive forum for Securities Act of 1933 claims.

The Kraft Heinz Company filed a resale prospectus supplement to register the potential resale by Berkshire Hathaway Inc. and an affiliated holder of up to 325,442,152 shares of its common stock. These shares are already outstanding and belong to the selling stockholder, so the company will not issue any new securities under this prospectus.
The company states that the filing itself is not a sale and does not mean the selling stockholder will actually sell any shares. If any shares are sold, all proceeds would go to the selling stockholder, not to Kraft Heinz. The 8‑K also notes that a legal opinion on the validity of the shares from Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP is included as an exhibit.
