Jeffrey Ettinger, interim chief executive officer of Hormel Foods, discussed the company's fiscal 2026 third quarter results during an earnings call on August 27, 2026. He characterized the quarter as "solid" though not as strong as the second quarter, citing progress on priorities he outlined earlier in the year: strengthening execution, realizing benefits from profitability-improvement actions, and fostering greater collaboration across the enterprise. Ettinger noted that the company has established "solid momentum" and holds an advantageous position with its protein-centric model, while acknowledging a "choppier quarter" for international operations. He also mentioned increased attention on the Asia-Pacific region, with a leader relocating to Singapore to manage it directly.

He expressed optimism about the company's future, noting that he will remain on the board of directors and as a shareholder after his interim role concludes.
