General Mills, Inc. (GIS, Financial) has unveiled a comprehensive multi-year global transformation initiative aimed at boosting productivity through enhanced end-to-end business processes. This strategic move, approved on May 20, 2025, is expected to be largely completed by the end of fiscal 2028.

The initiative is projected to incur total charges of approximately $130 million, with around $120 million anticipated to be cash-related. A significant portion of these charges, approximately $70 million, is expected to be recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily due to severance expenses.

General Mills has indicated that the estimates and timing of these costs are based on several assumptions, and actual results may vary. Additionally, the company may incur other charges or cash expenditures not currently anticipated, depending on future events related to the transformation initiative.

This strategic transformation underscores General Mills' commitment to enhancing its operational efficiency and adapting to the evolving market landscape.
