The company reported revenues of USD 11,184.7 million for the fiscal year ended May 2021, an increase of 1.2% over 2020. Organic net sales for the company’s
retail segments (inclusive of Grocery & Snacks, Refrigerated & Frozen, and International) were positively impacted by the increase in at-home food consumption as
a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, with sales declines in its Foodservice segment due to lower traffic in away-from-home food outlets.
Grocery & Snacks net sales for fiscal 2021 included an increase in volumes of 4%, excluding the impact of divestitures and the 53rd week in fiscal 2020, compared
to the prior-year period. This result reflected an increase across multiple categories due to increased at-home eating and some replenishment of customer
inventory levels that had been depleted in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic.
Refrigerated & Frozen net sales for fiscal 2021 included an increase in volumes of 4%, excluding the impact of divestitures in 2020, compared to fiscal 2020. The
increase in sales volumes was a result of increased at-home eating and some replenishment of customer inventory levels that had been depleted in connection with
the COVID-19 pandemic.
International net sales for fiscal 2021 included an increase in price/mix of 4% compared to fiscal 2020 due to lower promotional trade activity, inflation-justified
pricing, favorable mix, and the favorable impact of a USD 2.8 million change in estimate associated with our fiscal 2020 fourth quarter trade accrual.
Foodservice net sales for fiscal 2021 included a decrease in volumes of 13%, excluding the impact of divestitures and the 53rd week in fiscal 2020, compared to
the prior-year period. The decline in volume reflected lower traffic in away-from-home food outlets as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
