Cal-Maine Foods is the largest US shell egg producer with a strong quality score (Q86) and a net-cash balance sheet, but the scores reflect extraordinary avian-influenza-driven egg prices that are now normalising, and forward consensus has been cut 32.7% with the weakest momentum in this batch (M33). The company also faced antitrust and price-gouging scrutiny during the price spike. That earnings cliff is the dominant fact.
