MD&A excerpt

The filing discusses continued category destocking in US retail, price promotion to defend distribution, and a reduced manufacturing footprint after idling capacity. Management states that cash and facility-backed financing cover the near-term plan, while acknowledging that the plant-based meat category has not re-accelerated. Going-concern language is framed around cost takeout and distribution stabilization rather than a return to 2019 growth rates.
