On April 3, Goldman Sachs raised its price recommendation on Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. (NASDAQ:CALM) to $82 from $79. It maintained a Neutral rating on the shares. The firm described the company’s fiscal Q3 report as solid. It also noted that a “normalizing” supply backdrop could continue to weigh on egg prices in the near term, according to the analyst.

During the fiscal Q3 2026 earnings call, CEO Sherman Miller pointed to a clear shift in the company’s portfolio mix. He said specialty eggs accounted for 50.5% of total shell egg sales, up from 24.4%. Prepared Foods represented 9.5% of net sales, compared to just 0.8% before. Combined, specialty eggs and Prepared Foods made up 52.9% of net sales, versus 24% previously.

Miller also said market conditions appeared more stable than a year ago. He noted that the average layer flock increased by about 2.2% year over year, while depopulations declined by 70.6%. Retail volumes rose roughly 3% year to date, though wholesale prices remained under pressure as supply improved and inventory trends normalized. He added that M&A activity is helping tighten integration across the value chain. He pointed to the acquisition of shell egg, egg products, and prepared foods assets from Creighton Brothers and Crystal Lake, noting that the deal added nearby liquid egg capacity to support internal sourcing for Prepared Foods ingredients.

Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. (NASDAQ:CALM) produces, packages, markets, and distributes fresh shell eggs. Its portfolio includes conventional, cage-free, organic, brown, free-range, pasture-raised, and nutritionally enhanced eggs, along with ready-to-eat egg products.
