Darling Ingredients (DAR) announced robust financial results for the fourth quarter of 2025, significantly surpassing analyst expectations. The company reported earnings of 64 cents per share, exceeding Zacks Consensus Estimates, alongside net sales reaching $1.71 billion, also above forecasts. This strong performance was primarily driven by robust growth within its Feed and Food segments, coupled with substantial margin expansion. Looking ahead, Darling Ingredients anticipates a modest dip in its Feed segment for Q1 2026 due to fat prices. However, the company projects stable activity in the Fuel segment and maintains a positive outlook for its Food segment for the full year, indicating continued operational strength.
