Tyson Foods Cuts Fiscal 2026 Outlook on Beef Segment Pressure

Tyson Foods lowered its fiscal 2026 outlook, now expecting revenue growth of 1.5% to 2.0% and adjusted operating income of $1.85 billion to $2.05 billion, citing volatile cattle prices, a severe U.S. cattle shortage and fourth-quarter Beef margin compression. The company forecasts an adjusted Beef operating loss of $625 million to $775 million, while projecting $1.85 billion to $1.95 billion for Chicken and $200 million to $250 million for Pork; it said a Beef network restructuring around three central U.S. facilities should begin reducing costs in fiscal 2027.
