Friday, January 4, 1:52 PM The FDA is proposing two new food safety rules for foodborne illness prevention. The first rule would require food makers to develop a formal plan for preventing their food products from causing foodborne illness, and for correcting any problems that might arise. The second proposes enforceable, scientific-based safety standards for the production and harvesting of produce on farms. 2 Comments [Consumer, Commodities]

Monday, December 31, 2012, 12:11 PM Shares of Cal-Maine Foods (CALM -10.2%) are getting hit today after its FQ2 bottom line missed estimates this morning. Net earnings fell 39% Y/Y as higher feed costs and acquisition expenses offset higher prices for fresh-shell eggs. The company also noted that feed costs are likely to remain high and volatile for the remainder of fiscal 2013, which will put further pressure on margins over the near term. Comment! [Consumer, Earnings, On the Move]
Monday, December 31, 2012, 7:01 AM Cal-Maine Foods (CALM): Q2 EPS of $0.60 misses by $0.37. Revenue of $328.9M (+13.3% Y/Y). (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Consumer]
Tuesday, October 30, 2012, 3:08 PM Cal-Maine Foods (CALM) acquires the commercial egg operations of Maxim Production, including a feed mill and two production complexes with capacity for approximately 3.5M laying hens with related pullet capacity. In addition, the acquisition will include contract capacity for approximately 500,000 laying hens. The company expects to close the transaction in November. Comment! [M&A, Consumer]
Monday, October 1, 2012, 6:36 AM Cal-Maine Foods (CALM): FQ1 EPS of $0.39 beats by $0.04. Revenue of $272.9M (-12% Y/Y) beats by $14M. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Consumer]
Monday, July 30, 2012, 4:02 PM Cal-Maine Foods (CALM +4%) moves higher into the close after beating FQ4 estimates earlier today. Net income soared as a large gain from a new venture in the specialty-egg market more than offset the higher operating costs. The company noted cautiously however that feed costs are going to continue to rise over the near term due to the severe drought and damage to the national corn crop. 1 Comment [Earnings, On the Move]
Monday, July 30, 2012, 6:47 AM Cal-Maine Foods (CALM): Q2 EPS of $1.56 beats by $0.74. Revenue of $275M (+13.5% Y/Y) beats by $10M. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Consumer]

Tuesday, December 27, 2011, 10:44 AM Shares of Cal-Maine Foods (CALM +5.1%) trade higher after the company knocks out a big FQ2 earnings beat despite production costs that were up 20% Y/Y on corn and soybean price increases. Comment! [On the Move]
Tuesday, December 27, 2011, 6:38 AM Cal-Maine Foods (CALM): FQ2 EPS of $0.97 beats by $0.27. Revenue of $290M (+23.8% Y/Y) beats by $18M. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Consumer]
Wednesday, December 14, 2011, 11:29 AM There's money to be made in trading poultry producers - and it ain’t just chicken feed - Peter Brandt believes. The corn market is poised for a 35% decline, he says, and a smart way to be short corn is to go long in chicken producers such as Pilgrims Pride (PPC), Tyson (TSN), Cal-Maine Foods (CALM) and Sanderson Farms (SAFM). 1 Comment [Quick Ideas, Commodities]
Monday, September 26, 2011, 10:58 AM Cal-Maine Foods (CALM -1.3%)) FQ1 beat on revenues but missed EPS estimates as higher feed costs dug into margins. The company also notes that feed costs are likely to remain very high and volatile for the year ahead as well. Separately, its Founder and Chairman Fred Adams Jr. suffered a mild stroke while attending an industry event on Friday. Comment! [On the Move]
