World's largest frozen French fry producer; $6.3B FY2024 revenue; CEO transition 2024; QSR traffic softening (McDonald's volume reduction) creating excess capacity pressure; NYSE: LW.
Lamb Weston Holdings is the world's largest producer of frozen potato products—primarily French fries and potato appetizers—spun off from ConAgra Brands in November 2016 and headquartered in Eagle, Idaho, trading on NYSE (LW). The company generated approximately $6.3 billion in revenues for fiscal year 2024 (ending May 2024) under a leadership transition: longtime CEO Tom Werner departed in 2024, succeeded by Michael Smith, as the company navigated a challenging volume environment driven by softening quick-service restaurant traffic, higher consumer out-of-pocket costs, and the resulting reduction in restaurant French fry orders from major customers including McDonald's and Burger King. Lamb Weston supplies frozen potato products to foodservice operators, retail grocery chains, and food manufacturers across North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Americas.
Richmond VA tobacco and nicotine (NYSE: MO) ~$9.7B net revenue FY2024; Marlboro 40%+ US cigarette share, on! oral pouch competing with Zyn, 50%+ operating margins, ABI stake, competing with Reynolds/BAT.
Altria Group, Inc. is a Richmond, Virginia-based tobacco and nicotine company — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: MO) as an S&P 500 Consumer Staples component — manufacturing and selling cigarettes (Marlboro — the best-selling cigarette brand in the United States), smokeless tobacco (Copenhagen, Skoal, Red Seal, Husky chewing tobacco/moist snuff brands), oral nicotine pouches (on! brand), and maintaining a 10.7% ownership stake in Anheuser-Busch InBev (SABMiller acquisition consideration shares) and a 35% stake in JUUL Labs (vaping — original $12.8B investment written down to minimal value following JUUL's regulatory and litigation difficulties) through approximately 5,500 employees. In fiscal year 2024, Altria reported revenues of approximately $20.6 billion (net revenues after excise taxes approximately $9.7 billion), with the cigarette segment (Marlboro generating 40%+ US cigarette market share) contributing the majority of operating income at 50%+ adjusted operating margins — the highest margins in the consumer staples sector reflecting cigarettes' inelastic demand and regulated market structure. CEO Billy Gifford has pivoted Altria's strategy from cigarettes toward smoke-free nicotine products: the on! oral nicotine pouch (acquired full ownership of Helix Innovations in 2023, rebranding as on! to compete with Swedish Match Zyn, the dominant US oral nicotine pouch brand) represents Altria's primary nicotine product diversification vehicle as cigarette volume declines 7-8% annually through consumer quit rates and secular health awareness trends.
