Cal-Maine Foods (NASDAQ: CALM) has been identified as one of the 10 fastest-growing dividend stocks. Goldman Sachs recently raised its price target for Cal-Maine Foods to $82, citing a solid fiscal Q3 report, despite potential near-term pressure on egg prices due to normalizing supply. The company’s CEO noted a significant shift towards specialty eggs and prepared foods, which now constitute a larger portion of net sales, and highlighted more stable market conditions compared to the previous year.

The U.S. Justice Department is reportedly preparing an antitrust lawsuit against major egg producers, including Cal-Maine Foods and Versova, over alleged price coordination. This comes amidst a wave of class action lawsuits and consumer frustration regarding skyrocketing egg prices, which have been influenced by bird-flu outbreaks and rising producer prices. Cal-Maine Foods had previously stated its cooperation with a Justice Department investigation into potential price-fixing.

Shares of Cal-Maine Foods dropped in extended trading Friday after a report indicated the Justice Department might be close to filing an antitrust lawsuit against the egg producer and its competitors. This potential action follows a period of elevated egg prices in 2024 and 2025, which were largely attributed to a significant bird-flu outbreak that reduced supplies. The crackdown would address concerns over the cost-of-living increases faced by consumers.

Cal-Maine Foods (CALM) reported strong Q1 results, exceeding revenue and profit expectations despite declining egg prices. The company is considered 22.1% undervalued by its most followed narrative, with a fair value of $98 per share, largely due to anticipated shifts towards specialty egg and prepared foods offerings. However, a different view notes that its current P/E ratio is higher than its estimated fair ratio, posing a question for investors about potential risks versus market valuation.
