Specialty Eggs Account for Over Half of Cal-Maine's Total Sales -- Market Talk

Dow Jones04-01

1005 ET - Specialty eggs, which include free-range, pasture-raised and other premium varieties, are driving a greater portion of Cal-Maine's total sales. The segment accounts for just over half of the company's total egg sales in the latest quarter, up from about a quarter of total egg sales a year ago. The company for the past several quarters has been intentionally shifting its sales mix away from standard eggs toward premium varieties, which carry higher margins and sell at a premium. Cal-Maine shares climb 4.5% after posting higher-than-expected profit and sales. (connor.hart@wsj.com)
