The divestiture included the Canadian operations of several yogurt brands, including Yoplait and Liberté, as well as a manufacturing facility in Saint-Hyacinthe, Québec.
The company continues to expect the sale of its U.S. Yogurt business to Lactalis will close in calendar 2025, subject to receipt of requisite regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.

The EPS guidance revision was noted to reflect the impact of increased interest expense related to debt issued to fund the North American Whitebridge Pet Brands acquisition.
