Description: TSN Tyson Foods December 19, 2025

Tyson Foods (NYSE:TSN) is a global food processor organized into four core segments-Beef, Pork, Chicken, and Prepared Foods-covering everything from live animal processing to value-added, ready-to-eat products sold under brands such as Jimmy Dean, Hillshire Farm, and Ball Park.

Key operational metrics: FY 2024 net sales topped $48 billion, with chicken contributing roughly 55 % of revenue; the company’s adjusted EBITDA margin hovered around 8 %, reflecting tight cost control despite volatile feed-grain prices. Tyson’s exposure to commodity inputs (corn, soy) makes grain-price inflation a primary driver of earnings, while rising protein demand in emerging markets supports long-term volume growth.

Distribution channels span grocery retailers, warehouse clubs, food-service operators, and military commissaries, giving Tyson a diversified revenue base that buffers against cyclical swings in any single outlet.
