Conagra Brands stock (ISIN US2058871029) was last at USD 14.16 on the NYSE on September 28, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. ET, down 1.08 percent. The next catalyst is fiscal 2027 first quarter results due September 30, 2026, according to MarketScreener.
Sales pressure sets the backdrop
Conagra's latest completed fiscal year ended May 31, 2026. According to StockTitan, fiscal 2026 net sales fell 2.9 percent to USD 11.3 billion, while the company reported a net loss of USD 1.9 billion, or USD 4.00 per diluted share, compared with earnings of USD 2.40 in fiscal 2025.
The adjusted picture was less severe but still weaker. Adjusted EPS declined to USD 1.72 from USD 2.30, and adjusted EBITDA fell to USD 1.84 billion, according to the same fiscal 2026 filing summary. Operating cash flow stood at USD 1.4 billion for the year.
Margins and guidance face the test
Conagra issued fiscal 2027 guidance for organic net sales down 3 percent to down 1 percent, adjusted operating margin of 10.0 percent to 10.5 percent, and adjusted EPS of USD 1.40 to USD 1.50, StockTitan reported from the company filing. The range makes margin recovery and demand stabilization the key checkpoints for the September 30 update.
At the September 23, 2026 annual meeting, shareholders elected all 11 director nominees and approved executive compensation, according to StockTitan. The governance vote adds a management accountability angle as CEO John Brase works on restoring margins, increasing brand investment and simplifying operations.
Stock stays below its yearly high
Conagra Brands stock was last at USD 14.16 on September 28, 2026 on the NYSE, with a session range of USD 14.09 to USD 14.46 and volume of 14,426,784 shares. The price stood 30.31 percent below the 52-week high of USD 20.32 and USD 1.63 above the 52-week low of USD 12.53.
Market capitalization was USD 6.8 billion as of September 28, 2026. The combination of a 1.08 percent daily decline, a 2.9 percent full-year sales contraction and the upcoming results gives the earnings release a clear operating test rather than a simple calendar event.
