Post Holdings Provides Avian Influenza Update

St. Louis, Missouri - May 12, 2015 - Post Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:POST), a consumer packaged goods holding company, today provided an update on the recent avian influenza (“AI”) outbreak impacting Post’s egg business.

Chicken flocks at company owned and third party farms in Nebraska and Iowa, respectively, have tested positive for AI. Including these two new incidents, Post now estimates that approximately 20% of its egg supply has been affected.

On May 7, 2015, Post provided Adjusted EBITDA guidance for fiscal 2015 of between $585.0 million and $610.0 million. This included an estimated negative impact of $20.0 million related to AI based on information available at that time. Post will update the estimated impact of AI as soon as practicable.
