About Lamb Weston
Lamb Weston is North America's largest and the world's second-largest producer of branded and private-label frozen potato products, both by volume and value. The company's portfolio is anchored by french fries, but it also sells sweet potato fries, tater tots, diced potatoes, mashed potatoes, hash browns, and chips. Roughly two thirds of revenue comes from its home market of North America, with none of the other 100 countries the company sells into representing a significant share. McDonald's is Lamb Weston's single-largest customer at 15% of fiscal 2025 sales, with no other company representing more than 10%. Lamb Weston became an independent company in 2016 when it was spun off from Conagra.

What the Analysts think about Lamb Weston
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Lamb Weston stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
For the fiscal fourth quarter ended May 25, Lamb Weston reported net income of $119.9 million and net sales of $1.68 billion, both above Wall Street forecasts, sending its shares nearly 20% higher before the market opened.
International segment net sales climbed 15% in Q4, helping offset a 1% decline in North America, highlighting effective diversification beyond the U.S.
The new "Focus to Win" strategy aims for at least $250 million in annual ongoing cost savings and $120 million in working capital improvements by the end of FY 2027, supporting future profitability and cash flow.
Rising menu prices and fewer restaurant visits have reduced demand for french fries, exposing Lamb Weston’s reliance on foodservice traffic and affecting its core sales volumes.
The company expects to incur $70 million to $100 million in pretax restructuring charges in fiscal 2026, which may pressure near-term earnings as upfront costs are realized for efficiency efforts.
Fiscal 2026 sales are projected at $6.35 billion to $6.55 billion, roughly unchanged from FY 2025’s $6.451 billion, indicating limited revenue growth in the near term.
