FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

CONAGRA FOODS’ FISCAL 2008 SECOND-QUARTER EPS TO BE HIGHER THAN PLANNED

 

OMAHA, Neb., Dec. 5, 2007 – ConAgra Foods, Inc., (NYSE:CAG) announced today that diluted EPS from continuing operations for its fiscal 2008 second quarter, which ended Nov. 25, 2007, will be higher than planned. Previously the company had commented that it expected fiscal 2008 second-quarter diluted EPS from continuing operations to be in line with year-ago amounts. The higher EPS is attributable to stronger-than-expected performance in its Trading and Merchandising segment and its Food and Ingredients segment.

 

Because the company has not yet finalized the details of the quarter’s performance for all of its segments, the company will wait to discuss the specifics of the quarter’s results in the earnings release and conference call scheduled for Dec. 20, 2007.

 

ConAgra Foods, Inc., (NYSE:CAG) is one of North America’s leading packaged food companies, serving grocery retailers, as well as restaurants and other foodservice establishments. Popular ConAgra Foods consumer brands include Banquet, Chef Boyardee, Egg Beaters, Healthy Choice, Hebrew National, Hunt’s, Marie Callender’s, Orville Redenbacher’s, PAM and many others.
