CAL-MAINE FOODS REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER FISCAL 2021 RESULTS
RIDGELAND, Miss. (July 19, 2021) - Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. (NASDAQ: CALM) today reported results for the
fourth quarter (thirteen weeks) and fiscal year ended May 29, 2021.
Net sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021 were $349.8 million, compared to $453.3 million for the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2020. The Company reported a net loss of $4.2 million, or $0.09 per basic and diluted
share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, compared to net income of $60.5 million, or $1.25 per basic and
$1.24 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020.
For fiscal 2021, net sales were $1,349.0 million, compared with $1,351.6 million for the prior year. The
Company reported net income of $2.1 million, or $0.04 per basic and diluted share, for fiscal 2021, compared
to $18.4 million, or $0.38 per basic and diluted share, for the prior-year period.
Dolph Baker, chairman and chief executive officer of Cal-Maine Foods, Inc., stated, “Our results for
the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021 reflect a significant drop in average selling prices and lower volumes for
conventional eggs compared with the same period last year. The fourth quarter of 2020 was a period of very
high consumer demand, with market prices reaching record levels as more meals were being prepared at
home during the early restrictive phase of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our average sales price for shell eggs
was $1.32 per dozen for the fourth quarter this fiscal year compared with $1.58 per dozen for the same period
last year. For fiscal 2021, our average sales price for shell eggs was $1.22 per dozen, down slightly from
$1.23 per dozen for fiscal 2020.
“While retail demand has been strong for most of this fiscal year, that trend began to change in the
fourth quarter as consumers started dining out again and preparing fewer meals at home. As a result, food
service demand has improved as retail demand has slowed down, with overall demand for shell eggs
approaching a more normalized balance that is closer to pre-pandemic levels. Total dozens sold for the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2021 were down 9.4 percent over the same period last year, with 255.9 million dozens sold.
For fiscal 2021, we sold 1,073.2 million dozens of shell eggs, up slightly compared with 1,069.2 million dozens
sold in fiscal 2020.
“Hen numbers reported by the USDA as of June 1, 2021, were 315.7 million, which represents 5.3
million fewer hens than the adjusted number a year ago. The egg industry has experienced several years of
unfavorable economics, resulting in the lowest national supply of laying hens since October 2016. The USDA
also reported that the hatch from January 2021 through May 2021 increased 4.4 percent as compared to the
prior-year period, and as of June 1, 2021, eggs in incubators were up 2.5 percent over the same period last
year.
"We continue to see favorable trends for our specialty egg business, and we remain focused on
offering the right product mix of both conventional and specialty eggs to meet customer demand. For the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2021, sales of specialty eggs totaled $131.2 million, accounting for 38.7 percent of our egg
sales revenue, compared with $133.3 million, or 29.9 percent of egg sales revenue, in the fourth quarter of
fiscal 2020. The higher specialty egg revenue reflects a 1.6 percent increase in specialty dozens sold in the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to the same period last year.
"An important growth initiative for fiscal 2021 has been the continued expansion of our production
capacity in line with the growing customer demand for cage-free and specialty eggs. We are focused on
adjusting our production capacity to balance the changing state requirements with future customer
commitments. As always, we strive to offer a product mix that aligns with current and anticipated customer
purchase decisions.

“Following the end of fiscal 2021, Cal-Maine Foods completed the purchase of the remaining 50
percent membership interest in Red River Valley Egg Farm, LLC. With approximately 1.7 million cage-free
laying hens and cage-free pullet capacity, Red River Valley Egg Farm offers us additional opportunities to
expand our cage-free production capacity and further enhance our ability to provide exceptional service and
distribution capabilities to our customers. Including this purchase, we have invested over $476 million in
facilities, equipment, and related operations to expand our cage-free production since 2008. Importantly, we
have a strong balance sheet with ample liquidity and access to capital to continue to make the necessary
investments in our operations.
“For the fourth quarter, operating loss was $13.0 million compared with operating income of $76.1
million for the same period a year ago. Farm production costs per dozen produced for the fourth quarter of
fiscal 2021 were up 15.3 percent, or $0.112 per dozen, compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020. This
increase was primarily due to higher feed costs, which were up 27.7 percent compared with the prior-year
period. For the fourth quarter, the average Chicago Board of Trade (“CBOT”) daily market price was $6.10
per bushel for corn and $411.37 per ton for soybean meal, representing an increase of 82.7 percent and 37.6
percent, respectively, compared to the daily average CBOT prices for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020.
Increased export demand for both soybeans and corn, as well as weather-related shortfalls in production and
yields, have placed additional pressure on domestic supplies, resulting in higher and more volatile prices. For
the full year, our feed costs were up 9.0 percent over fiscal 2020. With the ongoing uncertainties and continued
supply chain disruptions related to the COVID-19 outbreak, weather fluctuations and geopolitical issues, we
expect to see further volatility in market prices for our primary feed ingredients.
“Fiscal 2021 has been a challenging year for Cal-Maine Foods, but we are proud of our ability to
navigate an uncertain environment as well as respond to new market opportunities. Our operations ran well,
and we demonstrated improvement in most of our key production metrics despite the more difficult
environment. We commend our dedicated employees who have continued to work under the extraordinary
conditions created by the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to their efforts, we were able to meet our primary
objective to support the nation’s food supply at a critical time. Across our operations, our managers came
together to service our customers, while remaining diligent in their efforts to provide a safe environment for
our employees, business partners, and the communities we serve.
“Looking ahead, we will continue to execute our growth strategy in fiscal 2022 and focus on managing
the aspects of our operations under our control, regardless of market conditions. We believe retail consumer
demand for eggs will be more consistent with typical seasonal trends, and we are optimistic that more
restaurants and food service operators are getting back to pre-pandemic business schedules. Our specialty
egg business is a key driver of our growth, and we will continue to make the strategic investments to expand
our capacity, especially for cage-free egg production. We are well positioned with sufficient capital to fund
internal expansion projects or consider potential acquisitions. Across our operations, we are focused on
efficient and sustainable management. Above all, we will strive to meet the demands of our valued customers
and deliver greater value to our shareholders,” added Baker.
Pursuant to Cal-Maine Foods’ variable dividend policy, for each quarter for which the Company
reports net income, the Company pays a cash dividend to shareholders in an amount equal to one-third of
such quarterly income. Following a quarter for which the Company does not report net income, the
Company will not pay a dividend with respect to that quarter or for a subsequent profitable quarter until the
Company is profitable on a cumulative basis computed from the date of the last quarter for which a dividend
was paid. Therefore, the Company will not pay a dividend with respect to the fourth quarter of f
iscal 2021.
