  • Ingredion’s 595 pence all-cash offer to acquire Tate & Lyle accepted by their shareholders

WESTCHESTER, Ill., Aug. 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ingredion Incorporated (NYSE: INGR), a leading global provider of ingredient solutions to the food and beverage manufacturing industry, today reported its second quarter 2026 results.

"Ingredion delivered a solid second quarter, with Texture & Healthful Solutions continuing its quarterly net sales volume growth and Food & Industrial Ingredients—U.S./CAN operating results sequentially improving during the quarter," said Jim Zallie, chairman, president and CEO of Ingredion. "Additionally, we completed the sale of our majority stake in the Pakistan business, and we are pleased to report that Tate & Lyle’s shareholders approved our recommended all-cash offer on July 28, marking an important step toward completing the transaction."

"Texture & Healthful Solutions delivered its ninth consecutive quarter of broad-based net sales volume growth, driven by continued strong customer demand for our solutions offerings, including clean-label ingredients, demonstrating the durability and margin enhancement of our solutions-selling model."

"Food & Industrial Ingredients—LATAM continued to deliver in line with expectations, which was a result of focused execution across the region, the resilience of our diversified businesses, and the advancement of network optimization opportunities, which included the announced closure of our Cabo, Brazil facility. We also successfully navigated foreign exchange headwinds and macroeconomic pressures.”

“In Food & Industrial Ingredients—U.S./CAN, reliability at our Argo plant improved, with sequentially better production rates and yields achieved throughout the quarter. We are pleased to say that the plant is operating at normal production rates across all major operating units.”

“Looking ahead, we are focused on continued operational execution across our Food & Industrial Ingredients businesses and accelerating the growth of our Texture & Healthful Solutions portfolio. We have also commenced the integration planning work for the pending acquisition of Tate & Lyle, which, when completed, will establish Ingredion as a more comprehensive global leader in ingredient solutions with the innovation expertise and geographic reach that will help create the future of food.”

Non-GAAP Information” in the Supplemental Financial Information that follows the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

Excluding foreign exchange translation impacts, reported operating income was down 32% and adjusted operating income was down 7% from a year ago.

  • Second quarter operating income (loss) for All Other increased $7 million from the prior year, reflecting continued improvements in the Protein Fortification business.

* All Other consists of the businesses of multiple operating segments that are not individually or collectively classified as reportable segments. Net sales from All Other are generated primarily by sweetener and starch sales from the Pakistan business, sales of stevia and other ingredients from our PureCircle and other sugar reduction businesses, and pea protein ingredients from our Protein Fortification business.

Other Financial Items

  • At June 30, 2026, total debt was $1.8 billion, and cash, including short-term investments, was $952 million, versus $1.8 billion and $1.0 billion, at December 31, 2025.
  • Net financing costs were $55 million in Q2 2026, compared to $12 million in Q2 2025, primarily due to a $47 million mark-to-market foreign exchange loss on derivatives used to hedge British pound sterling exposure related to the pending Tate & Lyle acquisition.
  • The reported and adjusted effective tax rates for the second quarter were 33.7% and 27.2%, compared to 23.6% and 27.2%, for the year-ago period. The increase in the reported effective tax rate was primarily attributable to the gain on the sale of a majority stake in the Pakistan business and the change in value of the Mexican peso relative to the U.S. dollar. These impacts were partially offset by the utilization of previously unbenefited capital losses.
  • Net capital expenditures totaled $210 million through June 30, 2026.

Dividends and Share Repurchases

In the second quarter, the Company paid $52 million in dividends to shareholders. On May 20, 2026, the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.82 per share, which was paid on July 21, 2026. Year-to-date, the Company has repurchased $14 million of common stock and remains committed to its $100 million full-year target.

Full-Year 2026 Outlook

Ingredion reaffirms its 2026 full year outlook after reflecting the impact of the sale of a majority stake in the Pakistan business on the second half of the year. The Company expects its full-year 2026 reported EPS to be in the range of $9.15 to $9.75, and its adjusted EPS to be in the range of $10.30 to $10.90.

The Company still expects full-year 2026 net sales to be flat to up low single digits, reflecting volume growth and favorable foreign exchange, partially offset by lower price mix as well as the impact of the previously mentioned sale of its majority stake in the Pakistan business.

Reported operating income is expected to be down low double digits, with adjusted operating income now expected to be down mid-single-digits for full-year 2026, which reflects the second half impact from the sale of a majority stake in the Pakistan business.

The 2026 full-year outlook further assumes the following: Texture & Healthful Solutions operating income is now expected to be up mid-to-high single-digits, driven by sales volume growth, partially offset by expected higher input cost inflation; Food & Industrial Ingredients—LATAM operating income is still anticipated to be down low single-digits, reflecting the continued strength of the Mexican peso; Food & Industrial Ingredients—U.S./CAN operating income is now expected to be down 20-25%, driven by the operational headwinds Argo incurred in the first half of 2026; and All Other’s operating loss is now anticipated to be approximately $(15) million, which reflects the removal of the second half earnings contribution of the Pakistan business.

Corporate costs for full-year 2026 are now expected to be down mid-single-digits.

For full-year 2026, the Company expects a reported effective tax rate of 27.4% to 28.9% and still expects an adjusted effective tax rate of 26.0% to 27.5%.

Cash from operations for the full year 2026 is now expected to be in the range of $700 million to $800 million. Capital expenditures for the full year are now expected to be approximately $450 to $490 million.

This guidance reflects tariff levels in effect as of the end of July 2026. In addition, this guidance excludes acquisition-related integration and restructuring costs, as well as any potential impairment costs.

Third Quarter 2026 Outlook

For the third quarter of 2026, compared to the same quarter last year, the Company expects net sales to be up low single-digits. Reported and adjusted operating income are both expected to be down mid-single-digits, which again reflects the impact of the sale of our majority stake in the Pakistan business.

II. Non-GAAP Information

To supplement the consolidated financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), non-GAAP historical financial measures are used, which exclude certain GAAP items such as acquisition/integration costs, restructuring costs, impairment charges, net (gain) on sale of business, Mexico tax item, and other specified items. The term “adjusted” is generally used when referring to these non-GAAP financial measures.

Management uses non-GAAP financial measures internally for strategic decision making, forecasting future results and evaluating current performance. By disclosing non-GAAP financial measures, management intends to provide investors with a more meaningful, consistent comparison of the Company’s operating results and trends for the periods presented. These non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP and reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company’s operations that, when viewed with its GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting its business. Expected financial measures may not reflect certain future charges, costs and/or gains that are inherently difficult to predict and estimate due to their unknown timing, effect and/or significance. Non-GAAP adjustments are generally made to adjusted financial measures, which increases management’s confidence in its ability to forecast adjusted financial measures than in its ability to forecast GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP measures, including non-GAAP expected measures, should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP; therefore, the Company’s non-GAAP information is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. A reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most comparable GAAP measure is provided in the tables below.

Notes

(i)   During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, we recorded pre-tax acquisition and integration costs of $53 million primarily related to our pending acquisition of Tate & Lyle, including a $47 million of acquisition-related foreign exchange hedging losses. There was no such activity during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

(ii)   During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, we recorded pre-tax impairment charges of $33 million, primarily related to the closure of our facility in Cabo, Brazil. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded a tax benefit for impairment charges to equity method investments. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded $6 million of pre-tax impairment charges on our equity investments.

(iii)   During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, we recorded pre-tax restructuring costs of $14 million and $25 million, primarily related to the closure of our facility in Cabo, Brazil, and costs related to our sale of the Pakistan business and other restructuring activity. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded pre-tax restructuring costs of $3 million and $4 million, primarily related to decommissioning costs for plant closures.

(iv)   During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, we recorded a net pre-tax gain of $44 million related to the sale of our Pakistan business. There was no such activity during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

(v)   During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, we recorded pre-tax charges of $19 million and $17 million primarily related to the Argo thermal event. During the three and six ended June 30, 2025, we recorded pre-tax benefits of $1 million and $11 million primarily related to insurance recoveries and a favorable judgment related to certain indirect taxes in Brazil.

(vi)   The tax amounts are result of the movement of the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar and its impact on the remeasurement of the Mexico financial statements during the period.

(vii)   During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026,we recorded a change in our accrual related to the permanent reinvestment of foreign earnings, recognized prior-year tax liabilities, associated tax impacts related to the above current and prior-year non-GAAP adjustments, and recapture of prior-year U.S. tax benefits. These were partially offset by the utilization of previously unbenefited capital losses, recognition of a deferred tax asset, and interest income on previously recognized tax benefits associated with certain Brazilian local incentives that were previously taxable.
