“10-K Item 1A: 'The production and sale of fresh shell eggs, which accounted for 94.3% to 95.3% of our net sales in our last three fiscal years'”
“10-K Item 1: 'Our top three customers accounted for an aggregate of 49.2%, 49.0% and 50.1% of our net sales dollars for fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.'”
“10-K Item 1: 'Our largest customer, Walmart Inc. (including Sam's Club), accounted for 33.6%, 34.0% and 34.2% of net sales dollars for fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.'”
Cal-Maine Foods' business is defined by a stark product concentration: fresh shell egg production and sales accounted for 94.3% to 95.3% of net sales over the company's last three fiscal years, a high-share, structural exposure that reflects the company's identity as a single-product egg producer rather than a diversified food company. Layered on top of that near-total product concentration are two medium-share customer exposures. The top three customers accounted for an aggregate 49.2% of net sales dollars in fiscal 2025 (49.0% in fiscal 2024 and 50.1% in fiscal 2023), and within that group, the largest customer, Walmart Inc. (including Sam's Club), alone accounted for 33.6% of net sales dollars in fiscal 2025 (34.0% in fiscal 2024 and 34.2% in fiscal 2023). Together, these exposures show a company whose fortunes hinge almost entirely on a single commodity product, with a meaningful and fairly stable customer-concentration overlay: Walmart's share of net sales dollars sits within the broader top-three-customer aggregate, and both dependency-driven exposures have held steady rather than trended sharply across the three years disclosed. The structural shell-egg concentration is the dominant feature of Cal-Maine's risk profile, with customer concentration a secondary, persistent but non-worsening factor.
