Mission Produce (NASDAQ: AVO) posts Q1 2026 loss while pushing $490M Calavo acquisition
Mission Produce reported a net loss of $0.7 million in Q1 2026, primarily due to $7.0 million in advisory costs related to its pending $490 million acquisition of Calavo Growers. Despite a 17% revenue decline to $278.6 million as avocado prices dropped, the company achieved 14% volume growth and an improved gross margin, leading to a 5% increase in adjusted EBITDA to $18.5 million. The Calavo merger is expected to close in Q3 2026, bringing anticipated annual synergies of at least $25 million and expanding Mission Produce's product portfolio.
