SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements, other than statements of historical or current fact included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, are forward-looking statements. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “plan,” “intend,” “believe,” “may,” “outlook,” “forecast,” “will,” “should,” “can have,” “likely,” “goals,” “objectives,” “priorities,” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events. For example, all statements the Company makes relating to its future results of operations, growth opportunities, operational improvements, changes to the margin environment, future demand, policy changes, global trade clarity, and pending litigation and investigations are forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are subject to significant risks, uncertainties and changes in circumstances that could cause actual results and outcomes to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, (1) operational risks related to equipment failure, natural disasters, epidemics, pandemics, adverse weather conditions, accidents, explosions, fires, war or acts of terrorism, cybersecurity incidents or other unexpected outages; (2) risks related to the availability and prices of agricultural commodities, agricultural commodity products, other raw materials and energy, including impacts from factors outside the Company’s control such as changes in market conditions, weather conditions, crop disease, plantings, climate change, competition and changes in global demand, as well as risks relating to global and regional economic downturns; (3) risks related to compliance with, and changes in, government programs, policies, laws, and regulations, including those related to trade, tariffs, sanctions, biofuels, sustainability, food safety and quality, the environment, tax, and financial markets; (4) risks related to international conflicts, acts of terrorism or war, sanctions, maritime piracy and other geopolitical events or economic disruptions, as well as other risks related to the disruption of global markets and trade flows; (5) risks and uncertainties relating to acquisitions, equity investments, joint ventures, integrations, divestitures, and other transactions; (6) risks relating to the Company’s execution of its strategic priorities, including achieving cost reductions and operational improvements, organic and inorganic growth and innovation in its products and services; (7) risks related to the Company’s technology systems and cybersecurity incidents; and (8) other risks, assumptions and uncertainties that are described in Item 1A, "Risk Factors" included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as may be updated in subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. For these statements, the Company claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. Accordingly, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Except to the extent required by law, the Company does not undertake, and expressly disclaims, any duty or obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statement whether as a result of new information, future events, changes in assumptions or otherwise.
