Points to note

Even in the current inflationary environment, demand for protein has remained relatively steady and Tyson has benefited from this trend thanks to its diverse portfolio of products. In Q4, total company volume increased 2%. Chicken and beef volumes rose helped by higher domestic production and head throughput, but pork volumes declined due to limited hog supply and lower export demand. Volumes in the international segment rose the highest at 7% due to investments in capacity and brands.

Tyson expects chicken and beef volumes to remain steady in 2023 but pork volumes are likely to be affected by the same challenges it saw last year. In Q4, volumes in Prepared Foods gained from brand investments and market share growth. Volumes are expected to grow in the coming year as well helped by these brand investments and a pickup in the foodservice business.

Tyson is seeing strong growth in its retail and foodservice channels as well. Its core business lines grew volume share by 2.6 points in Q4 and it gained share in the majority of its core categories, including frozen protein breakfast, smoked sausage and corn dogs.

The company is taking several measures to drive volume growth and margin improvement and to generate cost savings. It is also implementing various degrees of pricing in its key categories to tackle inflationary pressures. These efforts are likely to have benefited results in the first quarter.
