Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings Per Share and Net Debt are non-GAAP financial measures. Refer to the appendix of this release for an explanation and reconciliation of these and other non-GAAP financial measures used in this release to comparable GAAP financial measures.

2 Fresh Vegetables results are reported separately as discontinued operations, net of income taxes, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations, its assets and liabilities are separately presented in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, and its cash flows are included within the condensed consolidated cash flows for all periods presented. Unless otherwise noted, our discussion of our results included herein, outlook and all supplementary tables, including non-GAAP financial measures, are presented on a continuing operations basis.

Commenting on the results, Carl McCann, Executive Chairman, said:

"We are pleased to have started the year strongly and to have delivered Adjusted EBITDA growth in the first quarter.

During the quarter, we announced an agreement to sell our Fresh Vegetables division to Fresh Express. We are continuing to work through the regulatory process for the sale of this business.

We believe the Group is well-positioned for growth and continue to target Adjusted EBITDA of $350.0 million for the full year."

Group Results - First Quarter

Revenue increased 1.0%, or $18.9 million, primarily due to strong performance in the Fresh Fruit and Diversified EMEA segments, offset partially by the Diversified Americas segment. On a like-for-like basis3, revenue was 3.7%, or $72.8 million, ahead of prior year.

Adjusted EBITDA increased 9.3%, or $8.5 million, primarily driven by strong Fresh Fruit performance, offset partially by headwinds in the Diversified Americas segment. On a like-for-like basis, Adjusted EBITDA increased 9.9%, or $9.1 million.

Adjusted Net Income decreased $8.2 million, predominantly due to higher interest expense. Adjusted Diluted EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $0.34 compared to $0.43 in the prior year.

_________________________

3 Like-for-like basis refers to the measure excluding the impact of foreign currency translation movements and acquisitions and divestitures.

Fresh Fruit

Revenue increased 6.5%, or $49.1 million. Revenue was positively impacted by higher worldwide pricing of bananas and pineapples, as well as worldwide increases in volumes of bananas sold, partially offset by lower volumes of pineapples sold.

Adjusted EBITDA increased 14.6%, or $8.8 million. Adjusted EBITDA was positively impacted by strong revenue performance, partially offset by higher fruit sourcing costs and higher costs of shipping, packaging and handling.

Diversified Fresh Produce – EMEA

Revenue increased 0.9%, or $6.9 million, primarily driven by inflation-justified price increases across the segment, offset partially by an unfavorable impact of $53.4 million from foreign currency translation, as a result of the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against European currencies. On a like-for-like basis, revenue was 7.3%, or $58.1 million, ahead of prior year.

Adjusted EBITDA increased 21.4%, or $4.1 million. On a like-for-like basis, Adjusted EBITDA was 25.9%, or $4.9 million, ahead of prior year, primarily driven by strong performance in the U.K., an improved performance in South Africa and overall positive performance across the segment.

Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas & ROW

Revenue decreased 8.8%, or $40.9 million, primarily driven by timing differences for the Chilean cherry season, as well as a challenging quarter for berries and grapes, partially offset by continued strong performance in potatoes and onions in North America.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased 36.4%, or $4.4 million, primarily due to a challenging quarter for berries and grapes, partially offset by strong performance in potatoes and onions.

Vegetables Transaction

On January 30, 2023, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Fresh Express Acquisitions LLC (“Fresh Express”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Chiquita Holdings Limited, pursuant to which Fresh Express has agreed to acquire our Fresh Vegetables division for approximately $293.0 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the Agreement (the “Vegetables Transaction”). The Vegetables Transaction is expected to close after regulatory approvals are obtained, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions. As a result of the agreement to sell the Fresh Vegetables division, its results are reported separately as discontinued operations, net of income taxes, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented and its assets and liabilities are separately presented in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as assets and liabilities held for sale.

Cyber Incident

In February of 2023, Dole experienced a cybersecurity incident identified as ransomware. Upon detecting the attack, the Company promptly took steps to investigate and contain the threat, retaining the services of leading third-party cybersecurity experts and working with law enforcement. The incident had a limited impact on our operations overall, however it was disruptive for our Fresh Vegetables and Chilean businesses in particular. Direct costs related to the incident were $10.5 million of which $4.8 million related to continuing operations.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2023 were $19.9 million, which included investments in farm renovations and ongoing investments in IT, logistics and efficiency projects in our warehouses and processing facilities. This amount also includes $2.3 million of capital expenditures related to discontinued operations.

Net Debt

Net Debt as of March 31, 2023 was $1.0 billion.

Outlook for Fiscal Year 2023 (forward-looking statement)

The operating environment so far in 2023 continues to bring with it both new opportunities and new challenges. We see signs of improved logistical efficiencies in several areas, which is helping to bring more stability after a period of severe supply chain disruption.

We have also seen some unusual weather events, and as we progress through the second quarter, we are closely monitoring the impact of unprecedented rains this year in California, which continue to impact the vegetable and berry crops in that region.

We have continued to see positives for our business, with the strengthening Euro relative to the US Dollar, more stable fuel prices and continued signs of inflation moderating in certain areas. However, we are also seeing headwinds with interest rates remaining high and other unusual currency movements.

Overall, we believe our strong first quarter has put us in an excellent position to deliver on our full year financial targets.

Our business is well-positioned for growth, and while we remain cautious given that the environment we operate in remains dynamic, we continue to expect to deliver Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations of $350.0 million for full year 2023.

The above outlook includes non-GAAP financial measures. Please refer to the appendix of this release for an explanation and reconciliation of our historical non-GAAP financial measures used in this release to comparable GAAP financial measures.

Dividend

On May 17, 2023, the Board of Directors of Dole plc declared a cash dividend for the first quarter of 2023 of $0.08 per share, payable on July 6, 2023 to shareholders of record on June 16, 2023. A cash dividend of $0.08 per share was paid on April 21, 2023 for the fourth quarter of 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Dole plc’s results are determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

In addition to its results under U.S. GAAP, in this Press Release we also present Dole plc’s Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS, and Net Debt, which are supplemental measures of financial performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, U.S. GAAP (collectively, the "non-GAAP financial measures"). We present these non-GAAP financial measures, because we believe they assist investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results, cash flows or any other measure prescribed by U.S. GAAP. Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by any of the adjusted items, or that any projections and estimates will be realized in their entirety or at all. In addition, adjustment items that are excluded from non-GAAP results can have a material impact on equivalent GAAP earnings, financial measures and cash flows.

Adjusted EBIT is calculated from GAAP net income by: (1) adding the loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, or subtracting the income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes; (2) adding the income tax expense or subtracting the income tax benefit; (3) adding interest expense; (4) adding mark to market losses or subtracting mark to market gains related to unrealized impacts from derivative instruments and foreign currency denominated borrowings, realized impacts on noncash settled foreign currency denominated borrowings, net foreign currency impacts on liquidated entities and fair value movements on contingent consideration; (5) other items which are separately stated based on materiality, which include adding merger, transaction and other related costs, adding incremental costs for produce recalls, adding or subtracting asset write-downs, net of insurance proceeds, subtracting the gain or adding the loss on the disposal of business interests, adding the incremental costs from the fair value uplift for biological assets and inventory related to the acquisition of Legacy Dole, adding impairment charges on property, plant and equipment, subtracting the fair value gain or adding the fair value loss on the acquisition of investments previously accounted for under the equity method, subtracting the gain or adding the loss on the sale of investments accounted for under the equity method, subtracting the gain or adding the loss on asset sales for assets held-for-sale and actively marketed property and adding restructuring charges, costs for legal matters not in the ordinary course of business and costs incurred for cyber-related incidents; and (6) other adjustments from equity method investments, which includes the Company’s share of these items within equity method earnings.

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated from GAAP net income by: (1) adding the loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, or subtracting the income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes; (2) adding the income tax expense or subtracting the income tax benefit; (3) adding interest expense; (4) adding depreciation charges; (5) adding amortization charges; (6) adding mark to market losses or subtracting mark to market gains related to unrealized impacts from derivative instruments and foreign currency denominated borrowings, realized impacts on noncash settled foreign currency denominated borrowings, net foreign currency impacts on liquidated entities and fair value movements on contingent consideration; (7) other items which are separately stated based on materiality, which include adding merger, transaction and other related costs, adding incremental costs for produce recalls, adding or subtracting asset write-downs, net of insurance proceeds, subtracting the gain or adding the loss on the disposal of business interests, adding the incremental costs from the fair value uplift for biological assets and inventory related to the acquisition of Legacy Dole, adding impairment charges on property, plant and equipment, subtracting the fair value gain or adding the fair value loss on the acquisition of investments previously accounted for under the equity method, subtracting the gain or adding the loss on the sale of investments accounted for under the equity method, subtracting the gain or adding the loss on asset sales for assets held-for-sale and actively marketed property and adding restructuring charges, costs for legal matters not in the ordinary course of business and costs incurred for cyber-related incidents; and (8) other adjustments from equity method investments, which includes the Company’s share of these items within equity method earnings.

Adjusted Net Income is calculated from GAAP net income attributable to Dole plc by: (1) adding the loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, or subtracting the income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes (2) adding amortization charges; (3) adding mark to market losses or subtracting mark to market gains related to unrealized impacts from derivative instruments and foreign currency denominated borrowings, realized impacts on noncash settled foreign currency denominated borrowings, net foreign currency impacts on liquidated entities and fair value movements on contingent consideration; (4) other items which are separately stated based on materiality, which include adding merger, transaction and other related costs, adding incremental costs for produce recalls, adding or subtracting asset write-downs, net of insurance proceeds, subtracting the gain or adding the loss on the disposal of business interests, adding the incremental costs from the fair value uplift for biological assets and inventory related to the acquisition of Legacy Dole, adding impairment charges on property, plant and equipment, subtracting the fair value gain or adding the fair value loss on the acquisition of investments previously accounted for under the equity method, subtracting the gain or adding the loss on the sale of investments accounted for under the equity method, subtracting the gain or adding the loss on asset sales for assets held-for-sale and actively marketed property and adding restructuring charges, costs for legal matters not in the ordinary course of business and costs incurred for cyber-related incidents; (5) other adjustments from equity method investments, which includes the Company’s share of these items within equity method earnings; (6) excluding the tax effect of these items and discrete tax adjustments; and (7) excluding the effect of these items attributable to non-controlling interests.

Adjusted Earnings per Share is calculated from Adjusted Net Income divided by diluted weighted average number of shares in the applicable period.

Net Debt is a non-GAAP financial measure, calculated as GAAP cash and cash equivalents, less GAAP current and long-term debt. It also excludes GAAP debt discounts and debt issuance costs.

Dole is not able to provide a reconciliation for projected FY'23 results without taking unreasonable efforts.
