How to read these numbers
Challenge rate is the share of questions that pushed back, pressed for specifics or questioned management’s assumptions. It describes how questions were asked on the calls tracked here; it does not measure whether any view turned out to be right.
Rounding. Rates are rounded to whole percentages, so a small share can show as 0% even when some questions were challenging. The count beside each rate is exact; “none of N questions” means no question was challenging.
No questions recorded. “—” means there is nothing to calculate: no questions were recorded for that period on the calls tracked here. It does not mean there was no activity.
Fewer than 3 questions. A company-level rate is withheld when fewer than 3 questions were recorded for that company; the questions are still counted everywhere else.
Small samples. Profiles with fewer than 10 questions are marked Limited sample.
Reporting periods. Questions are grouped by the calendar quarter each company’s fiscal reporting period maps to, not by the date of the call. Periods without a calendar mapping are listed separately under their fiscal label.

Sean framed volume investment as asset preservation to avoid brand atrophy and valuation decline. Committed to updating investors if inflation or tariff assumptions change materially.
Are there any other like, categories or businesses within the portfolio that you're looking at in terms of maybe reevaluating the fit, as part of Conagra at this point?
Show response
Sean confirmed additional grocery divestiture candidates exist but declined to name them, noting those businesses play a role absorbing overhead and funding growth investments. Highlighted more divestitures than most peers over the last decade.

in terms of that improvement exiting the year, I assume that's mostly pricing net of any elasticity impact
Show response
Marcos confirmed Q4 implies same constant-currency growth level as full year. Volume growth expected to continue in Americas consumer despite pricing. Flavor Solutions will see more pricing contribution with volume expected flat for full year.
Calendar 2025 Q2
Could we expect that to be more concentrated in consumer or Flavor Solutions?
Show response
Marcos said both segments contribute in H2 but full-year Flavor Solutions is bigger OP driver. Consumer reinvests gross margin gains into brand marketing and technology to sustain volume momentum.
