Fresh Vegetables results are reported separately as discontinued operations, net of income taxes, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations, its assets and liabilities are separately presented in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, and its cash flows are presented separately in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for all periods presented. Unless otherwise noted, our discussion of our results included herein, outlook and all supplementary tables, including non-GAAP financial measures, are presented on a continuing operations basis.
Commenting on the results, Carl McCann, Executive Chairman, said:
“We are pleased to deliver another positive result for the third quarter of 2024, continuing the good momentum we have built over the course of this year, with Adjusted EBITDA increasing 2.3% to $82.1 million on a like-for-like basis.
Our performance over the first nine months positions us well to deliver a strong result for the full year. Today, we are pleased to raise our full year Adjusted EBITDA target by $10.0 million to at least $380.0 million.”
Group Results - Third Quarter
Revenue increased 1.0%, or $19.7 million primarily due to positive operational performance across all segments and a $12.7 million net favorable impact of foreign currency translation, offset partially due to a net negative impact from acquisitions and divestitures of $110.9 million. On a like-for-like basis, revenue was 5.8%, or $117.9 million, ahead of prior year.
Net Income decreased 60.1%, or $32.5 million, primarily due to the benefit of an exceptional $28.8 million gain on sale of a non-core asset recorded in the prior period. There was also a decrease of other income of $9.3 million, primarily related to fair value adjustments of financial instruments.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased 3.7%, or $3.1 million, primarily driven by decreases in the Fresh Fruit and Diversified Fresh Produce - EMEA segments, partially offset by strong performance in the Diversified Fresh Produce - Americas & ROW segment. On a like-for-like basis, Adjusted EBITDA increased 2.3%, or $1.9 million.
Adjusted Net Income decreased $4.5 million, predominantly due to the decreases in Adjusted EBITDA noted above as well as higher income tax expense, offset partially by lower interest expense. Adjusted Diluted EPS for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $0.19 compared to $0.24 in the prior year.

Fresh Fruit
Revenue increased 6.6%, or $49.6 million, primarily due to higher worldwide volumes of bananas sold, as well as higher worldwide pricing of bananas and pineapples, partially offset by lower worldwide volumes for pineapples and lower pricing and volume for plantains.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased 4.9%, or $2.2 million, primarily driven by higher shipping costs in the North American market due to scheduled dry dockings as well as lower volumes of pineapples sold and lower commercial cargo profitability, partially offset by higher volumes of bananas sold and higher pricing for bananas and pineapples.
Diversified Fresh Produce – EMEA
Revenue increased 5.1%, or $43.3 million, primarily due to strong performance in Ireland, the U.K. and the Netherlands There was also a favorable impact from foreign currency translation of $13.6 million and an incremental positive impact from acquisitions of $1.8 million. On a like-for-like basis, revenue was 3.3%, or $27.9 million, ahead of prior year.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased 13.1%, or $4.6 million, primarily due to a decrease in the U.K. due to higher one-off IT charges and the impact of lower supply of certain categories and seasonal timing differences in Spain and South Africa. On a like-for-like basis, Adjusted EBITDA was 14.5%, or $5.1 million, behind the prior year.
Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas & ROW
Revenue decreased 17.0%, or $80.0 million, primarily due to the disposal of the Progressive Produce business in mid-March 2024. On a like-for-like basis, revenue was 7.2%, or $33.6 million, ahead of the prior year, primarily due to volume and pricing growth in most commodities in North America.
Adjusted EBITDA increased 70.7%, or $3.6 million, primarily driven by improved performance in our North America berries business and positive margin development in avocados, as well as revenue growth across most commodities in North America. These positive impacts were primarily offset by the disposal of the Progressive Produce business. On a like-for-like basis, Adjusted EBITDA was 178.1%, or $9.2 million, ahead of the prior year.
Capital Expenditures
Cash capital expenditures from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $56.8 million, which included investments in shipping containers, farming investments, efficiency projects in our warehouses and ongoing investments in IT and logistics assets. Additions through finance leases from continuing operations were $48.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. These additions were primarily related to $41.1 million of investments in two vessels during the three months ended September 30, 2024 that we had previously chartered and now have committed to purchase.
Free Cash Flow from Continuing Operations and Net Debt
Free cash flow from continuing operations was $49.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Free cash flow was primarily driven by normal seasonal impacts. There were higher outflows from receivables based on higher revenues (excluding the impact of divestitures) and timing of collections and lower inflows from inventories, partly offset by inflows from accounts payables, accrued liabilities and other liabilities. Net Debt as of September 30, 2024 was $732.0 million.
Outlook for Fiscal Year 2024 (forward-looking statement)
We are pleased to have delivered another robust performance in the third quarter putting us in an excellent position to deliver a strong result for the full year.
As we move towards the end of the year, we are raising our full year adjusted EBITDA target by $10.0 million to at least $380.0 million for 2024.
Following our strategic decision to bring two additional vessels into our shipping fleet, we now expect total capital expenditure from continuing operations, including additions by finance lease, to be in the range of $130.0 million to $140.0 million for financial year 2024.
Additionally, as our debt levels and market interest rates have reduced, we now expect our full year interest expense, including discontinued operations, to be approximately $75.0 million for financial year 2024.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Dole plc’s results are determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
In addition to its results under U.S. GAAP, in this Press Release, we also present Dole plc’s Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS, Free Cash Flow from Continuing Operations and Net Debt, which are supplemental measures of financial performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, U.S. GAAP (collectively, the "non-GAAP financial measures"). We present these non-GAAP financial measures, because we believe they assist investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results, cash flows or any other measure prescribed by U.S. GAAP. Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by any of the adjusted items or that any projections and estimates will be realized in their entirety or at all. In addition, adjustment items that are excluded from non-GAAP results can have a material impact on equivalent GAAP earnings, financial measures and cash flows.
Adjusted EBIT is calculated from GAAP net income by: (1) subtracting the income or adding the loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes; (2) adding the income tax expense or subtracting the income tax benefit; (3) adding interest expense; (4) adding mark to market losses or subtracting mark to market gains related to unrealized impacts from certain derivative instruments and foreign currency denominated borrowings, realized impacts on noncash settled foreign currency denominated borrowings, net foreign currency impacts on liquidated entities and fair value movements on contingent consideration; (5) other items which are separately stated based on materiality, which during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, included adding or subtracting asset write-downs from extraordinary events, net of insurance proceeds, subtracting the gain or adding the loss on the disposal of business interests, subtracting the gain or adding the loss on asset sales for assets held for sale and actively marketed property, adding impairment charges on goodwill and adding costs incurred for the cyber-related incident; and (6) the Company’s share of these items from equity method investments.
Adjusted EBITDA is calculated from GAAP net income by: (1) subtracting the income or adding the loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes; (2) adding the income tax expense or subtracting the income tax benefit; (3) adding interest expense; (4) adding depreciation charges; (5) adding amortization charges on intangible assets; (6) adding mark to market losses or subtracting mark to market gains related to unrealized impacts from certain derivative instruments and foreign currency denominated borrowings, realized impacts on noncash settled foreign currency denominated borrowings, net foreign currency impacts on liquidated entities and fair value movements on contingent consideration; (7) other items which are separately stated based on materiality, which during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, included adding or subtracting asset write-downs from extraordinary events, net of insurance proceeds, subtracting the gain or adding the loss on the disposal of business interests, subtracting the gain or adding the loss on asset sales for assets held for sale and actively marketed property, adding impairment charges on goodwill and adding costs incurred for the cyber-related incident; and (8) the Company’s share of these items from equity method investments.
Adjusted Net Income is calculated from GAAP net income attributable to Dole plc by: (1) subtracting the income or adding the loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes; (2) adding amortization charges on intangible assets; (3) adding mark to market losses or subtracting mark to market gains related to unrealized impacts from certain derivative instruments and foreign currency denominated borrowings, realized impacts on noncash settled foreign currency denominated borrowings, net foreign currency impacts on liquidated entities and fair value movements on contingent consideration; (4) other items which are separately stated based on materiality, which during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, included adding or subtracting asset write-downs from extraordinary events, net of insurance proceeds, subtracting the gain or adding the loss on the disposal of business interests, subtracting the gain or adding the loss on asset sales for assets held for sale and actively marketed property, adding impairment charges on goodwill and adding costs incurred for the cyber-related incident; (5) the Company’s share of these items from equity method investments; (6) excluding the tax effect of these items and discrete tax adjustments; and (7) excluding the effect of these items attributable to non-controlling interests.
Adjusted Earnings per Share is calculated from Adjusted Net Income divided by diluted weighted average number of shares in the applicable period.
Net Debt is a non-GAAP financial measure, calculated as GAAP cash and cash equivalents, less GAAP current and long-term debt. It also excludes GAAP unamortized debt discounts and debt issuance costs.
Free cash flow from continuing operations is calculated from GAAP net cash used in or provided by operating activities for continuing operations less GAAP capital expenditures.
Like-for-like basis refers to the U.S. GAAP measure or non-GAAP financial measure excluding the impact of foreign currency translation movements and acquisitions and divestitures.
Dole is not able to provide a reconciliation for projected FY'24 results without taking unreasonable efforts.
