Smithfield Foods, Inc.'s share price was $18.36 at the close on 3 November 2026. It has been moving sideways for 13 weeks. That is 23.4% below its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $18 and $29, and at that close it was at the low of that range. Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, and it has been behind for 21 weeks running. Over the last 1 year the share price moved −15% while the S&P 500 moved +25%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. It was last ahead over 13 weeks in the week of 12 June 2026. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does Smithfield Foods pay? Smithfield Foods, Inc. paid $1.13 per share over the last four reported quarters. The most recent declaration was $0.31 for Jun 2026. At today's price of $18.36 that is a yield of 6.15%, based on dividends already paid, not a forecast. ## Which stock lists is Smithfield Foods on? Smithfield Foods is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list. ## Is Smithfield Foods profitable? Smithfield Foods, Inc. earned $239 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +27.1% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 3rd quarter in a row of profit growth. Full-year FY25 profit was $998 M. Over 12 years profit has grown 15.1% a year on average. That is 6.5% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $188 M. 1 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. For the full year, FY25 profit was $998 M (+2.9% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed −2.3% on a year earlier and the margin moved +0.4 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +19.4% and revenue +4.5%. Profit is growing faster than sales: fixed costs are spread over more sales, so each extra dollar of revenue adds more to profit. ## How much revenue does Smithfield Foods make, and is it growing? Smithfield Foods, Inc. reported $3.7 B of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, −2.3% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 12 years it has grown 1.4% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $15.5 B. The last four reported quarters add to $15.5 B. FY25 revenue was $15.5 B, +9.8% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +4.5% on average, against 1.4% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +4.3%, against +4.3% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew +15.8%, against +67.7% a year (rolling over). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Smithfield Foods keep? Smithfield Foods, Inc.'s operating margin was 8.4% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 0.4 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Its latest full-year margin is the highest it has ever reported. Across 8 years it has been between 0.3% and 8.6%. The latest quarter is within that range. Across 8 years it has been between 0.3% and 8.6%, and FY25's 8.6% is the highest of them. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +0.4 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +0.1 points. So the gain came mostly from costs below the gross margin, such as staff and overheads, measured against sales. When margins are at a record, every ratio built on profit looks better than usual, so watch whether they hold. ## Is Smithfield Foods' profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 162% of Smithfield Foods, Inc.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $1.1 B of operating cash against $998 M of profit. After $355 M of spending on assets, $704 M was left over as free cash. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason. What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Smithfield Foods' cash go? Smithfield Foods, Inc. does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent $1.1 B on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 2.5% of FY25 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: $1.1 B over the last 3 years. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. ## What is Smithfield Foods' P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Smithfield Foods, Inc.'s P/E is 8.1×, with too little history to compare. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved +0.1% while the price moved −17.1%. Earnings did better than the price, which pulled the multiple down within its own range. In short: there is too little history to say whether the multiple is high or low for this company, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Smithfield Foods business getting better or worse? Smithfield Foods, Inc.'s business is giving mixed signals. Growth is slowing from a very fast pace: profit growth has eased from +374.5% at its peak to +15.8%, but the business is still expanding, with ROCE steady at 13.6%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: when the lines disagree, each line above matters more than any single label. ## How much does Smithfield Foods earn on its capital? Smithfield Foods, Inc. earned a ROE of 14% in FY25. That is up from a low of 0% in FY23. We cannot compare its return on capital used with its cost of capital from the data we have. It comes from a 6.4% net margin and 1.28× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 6.4% net margin × 1.28× asset turnover × 1.72× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 14.1% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. The 11.2% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY25 at 13.5%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Smithfield Foods have too much debt? Smithfield Foods, Inc. has total debt of $2.4 B against shareholder equity of $7.3 B as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.33× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.81 in FY13 to 0.34 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the Smithfield Foods shareholding pattern? 12.7% of Smithfield Foods, Inc.'s tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so a large group of traders is betting against it. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 2.8 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. Why it is at this level: the figure does not say who holds the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story. ## How far is Smithfield Foods from balance-sheet trouble? For Smithfield Foods, Inc., the Z-score is 3.49. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is well clear of danger. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 3.49 is well clear of the danger zone, so the balance sheet is not the risk here. ## How does Smithfield Foods rank in its industry? 50.6 out of 100, rank 10 of 30 in Packaged Foods, with 81% of the evidence available. Smithfield Foods, Inc. scores 50.6 out of 100 against the 30 companies it is compared with in Packaged Foods, ranking 10. The evidence is balanced: no factor stands out, so another reported quarter is needed before the picture is clearer. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 21.4 + 13.4 + 14.5 + 1.3 = 50.6. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if profit growth turns negative or margins stop improving while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is Smithfield Foods compared with?

Missing figures are not scored as bad. They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Sep 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.
