Lamb Weston (ISIN US5132721045) was trading at EUR 43.19 at Lang & Schwarz on October 6, 2026 at 4:03 p.m. CEST, plus 7.44 percent versus the prior close of EUR 40.20. In a release dated October 6, 2026, Yahoo Finance reported that Lamb Weston raised its fiscal 2027 outlook for adjusted diluted earnings per share to USD 3.05-3.35 from USD 2.95-3.25, while adjusted EBITDA guidance increased to USD 1.125-1.215 billion from USD 1.10-1.20 billion.

First quarter shows a split

Yahoo Finance reported first-quarter fiscal 2027 net sales of USD 1.67 billion, up from USD 1.66 billion in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted diluted EPS reached USD 0.75, compared with USD 0.74 a year earlier, while GAAP diluted EPS fell to USD 0.21 from USD 0.46.

The comparison shows why the higher outlook is not a simple volume story. Sales volume rose 2.00 percent, but price and mix declined 2.00 percent, leaving total net sales only 1.00 percent higher year over year. Adjusted EBITDA fell 5.00 percent to USD 286 million as higher volume and cost savings did not fully offset input costs and international weakness.

North America offsets Europe

North America net sales increased 5.00 percent to USD 1.14 billion in the first quarter of fiscal 2027, and segment adjusted EBITDA rose 11.00 percent to USD 287 million, according to Yahoo Finance. International net sales declined 8.00 percent to USD 529 million, while international segment adjusted EBITDA dropped 54.00 percent to USD 27 million.

The regional split leaves North American execution as the main support for the revised outlook, while Europe remains the key pressure point. Investing.com reported on October 5, 2026, that analysts were watching European potato crop conditions and procurement costs as risks to fiscal 2027 margins.
