Next results ~December 17, 2026 (estimated)

Mission Produce, Inc.'s trailing-twelve-month revenue fell 6.2% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of -0.2%.

Our discounted-cash-flow model values the business at ~$2.9 per share in the base case (~$1.1–$5.2 across growth scenarios) — model values under stated assumptions, not a price target.

Moat

15 /100

Weak moat

How hard Mission Produce's competitive advantage looks for rivals to wear away, judged from 6 years of its own filings: returns on capital, pricing power, profit durability, cash conversion and discipline.

  • Returns on capital 1 / 20

    Net income has been a median 2.5% of total assets over 6 years.

  • Pricing power 8 / 20

    Gross margin has been a median 11.1%, moving by 2.0 percentage points (standard deviation) across 6 years.

  • Durability 0 / 20

    Operating margin has been a median 3.1%; its worst year was -4.5%.

  • Cash conversion 3 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 2 of 6 years, at a median -1.3% of revenue.

AI disruption exposure: Low. In this industry, the business rests on physical assets, regulated networks or products AI itself depends on.
