Commenting on the results, Carl McCann, Executive Chairman, said:
"We are pleased to report another strong result for the second quarter of 2024, with Adjusted EBITDA increasing 2.2% to $125.4 million and 8.2% on a like-for-like basis.
Following the completion of our sale of Progressive Produce, we repaid $100 million of our Term Loan facilities in April, and at the end of the quarter, our Net Debt was $767.5 million.
Our strong first half of the year, and positive momentum within the business, positions us well to deliver a good result for the 2024 financial year. Today, we are pleased to raise our full year Adjusted EBITDA target to at least $370.0 million."
1 Like-for-like basis refers to the measure excluding the impact of foreign currency translation movements and acquisitions and divestitures.

Group Results - Second Quarter
Revenue decreased 0.8%, or $17.1 million, primarily due to a net negative impact from acquisitions and divestitures of $100.3 million and a $9.6 million net unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation. On a like-for-like basis, revenue was 4.3%, or $92.8 million, ahead of prior year, due to strong operational performance across all segments.
Net Income increased 68.4% or $35.8 million, due to strong trading results across the Group.
Adjusted EBITDA increased 2.2%, or $2.7 million, primarily driven by strong performance in the Fresh Fruit segment. On a like-for-like basis, Adjusted EBITDA increased 8.2%, or $10.1 million.
Adjusted Net Income decreased $1.3 million, predominantly due to higher tax expense, partially offset by the increases in Adjusted EBITDA noted above. Adjusted Diluted EPS for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $0.49 compared to $0.51 in the prior year.

Fresh Fruit
Revenue increased 1.5%, or $12.4 million, primarily due to higher volumes of bananas in Europe and North America, higher worldwide pricing of bananas and higher volume of plantains sold, partially offset by lower volumes and pricing for pineapples.
Adjusted EBITDA increased 7.3%, or $4.8 million, driven by higher revenue and lower fruit sourcing costs, partially offset by higher shipping costs.
Diversified Fresh Produce – EMEA
Revenue increased 3.2%, or $29.2 million, primarily due to strong performance in Ireland, the U.K. and Spain, as well as an incremental positive impact from acquisitions of $7.8 million, partially offset by a $8.7 million unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation. On a like-for-like basis, revenue was 3.3%, or $30.2 million, ahead of prior year.
2

Adjusted EBITDA increased 0.2%, or $0.1 million, primarily driven by strong performance in the Nordics, Spain and South Africa, as well as a positive impact of $0.3 million from acquisitions, offset primarily by a $0.3 million unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation. On a like-for-like basis, Adjusted EBITDA was 0.3%, or $0.1 million, ahead of prior year.
Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas & ROW
Revenue decreased 14.7%, or $61.6 million, primarily due to the disposal of the Progressive Produce business in mid-March 2024. On a like-for-like basis, revenue was 11.3%, or $47.4 million, ahead of the prior year, primarily due to seasonal timing benefits as well as positive underlying revenue growth in most commodities in North America.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased 15.1%, or $2.2 million, primarily driven by the disposal of the Progressive Produce business. On a like-for-like basis, Adjusted EBITDA was 36.4%, or $5.2 million, ahead of the prior year, primarily due to improved performance in our North American diversified business and the benefit of continued seasonal timing differences in South America.
Capital Expenditures
Cash capital expenditures from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were $35.7 million, which included investments in shipping containers, farming investments, efficiency projects in our warehouses and ongoing investments in IT and logistics assets. Additions through finance leases from continuing operations were $7.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Sale of Progressive Produce
On March 13, 2024, the Company completed the sale of its 65.0% equity interest in the Progressive Produce business to PTF Holdings. As a result of the sale, Dole received gross proceeds of $120.3 million in cash and recognized a gain on the sale of $75.9 million. On April 25, 2024, Dole voluntarily prepaid $100.0 million of its Term Loan facilities with proceeds from the sale of Progressive Produce.
Free Cash Flow from Continuing Operations and Net Debt
Free cash flow from continuing operations was an outflow of $30.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Free cash flow was primarily driven by normal seasonal impacts. There were higher outflows from receivables based on higher revenues (excluding the impact of divestitures) and timing of collections and lower inflows from inventories, partly offset by inflows from accounts payables, accrued liabilities and other liabilities. Net Debt as of June 30, 2024 was $767.5 million.
Outlook for Fiscal Year 2024 (forward-looking statement)
We are very pleased that we have consolidated our strong start to the year with another very good performance in the second quarter, putting us in an excellent position to deliver a strong result for the full year.
While forecasting remains complex, our first half result gives us confidence to raise our full year Adjusted EBITDA target to at least $370.0 million for 2024.
For financial year 2024, we are maintaining our previously issued guidance for both capital expenditure from continuing operations and interest expense.
Dividend
On August 13, 2024, the Board of Directors of Dole plc declared a cash dividend for the second quarter of 2024 of $0.08 per share, payable on October 3, 2024 to shareholders of record on September 11, 2024. A cash dividend of $0.08 per share was paid on July 5, 2024 for the first quarter of 2024.

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, Free Cash Flow from Continuing Operations 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.
