“We are pleased to report a good outcome for the third quarter of 2025. Our Diversified Fresh Produce segments delivered excellent results, partially offsetting an anticipated decline in Fresh Fruit in the quarter.
The momentum within the overall business gives us confidence that our full year Adjusted EBITDA should be at the upper end of our targeted range of $380 million to $390 million.
In August, we were pleased to successfully complete the sale of the Fresh Vegetables Division, providing us with greater flexibility in our capital allocation strategy. As part of this strategy, our Board of Directors has granted authorization for the Group to opportunistically repurchase up to $100 million of its ordinary shares.”
