out of 100
Smithfield Foods Inc earns a fundamental-quality score of 50 out of 100, profiling it as a company with demanding fundamentals. Its score rests mainly on its financial strength (net debt 0.03× EBITDA). Its weakest area is its growth (revenue -1.3%/yr). Whether it's cheap or expensive depends on the current price, which you can compute in the tool.
Smithfield Foods is the world's largest pork producer: from farm to packaged bacon, with century-old American brands and China's WH Group as majority owner. It returned to the US stock market in 2025 after a decade in Chinese hands.
