ACQUISITION AND DISPOSITION ACQUISITION AND DISPOSITIONS
Acquisition
On July 30, 2024, we acquired a dry sausage production facility located in Nashville, Tennessee from Cargill Meat Solutions Corporation for $38 million. The acquisition is part of our strategy to grow our value-added packaged meats business and serve the growing demand for high-quality pepperoni, deli, charcuterie and other dry sausage products. The total cost of the asset acquisition was allocated based on the relative fair value of the assets acquired. The allocated fair values of the assets acquired are as follows: equipment valued at $17 million, buildings valued at $11 million, inventory valued at $5 million and land valued at $5 million.
Dispositions
On June 30, 2025, we closed our leased Elizabeth, New Jersey dry sausage production facility and consolidated production across our network. Costs associated with closing the plant primarily include equipment that we disposed of prior to the end of the asset’s useful life. The charges associated with the closing were not material. This facility was accounted for in the Packaged Meats segment.
On August 30, 2024, we closed our Altoona, Iowa ham boning facility and consolidated production volume into other locations to improve manufacturing efficiencies. Costs associated with closing the plant primarily include operating lease assets and equipment that we disposed of prior to the expiration of the lease term or end of the
asset’s useful life. The charges associated with the closing were not material. This facility was accounted for in the Fresh Pork segment.
