Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Lamb Weston Holdings, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company,” or “Lamb Weston”) is a leading global producer, distributor, and marketer of value-added frozen potato products; headquartered in Eagle, Idaho. We have two reportable segments: North America and International. See Note 13, Segments, for additional information on our reportable segments. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements present the financial results of Lamb Weston and its consolidated subsidiaries for the thirteen weeks ended August 24, 2025 and August 25, 2024, and have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America (“U.S.”). These consolidated financial statements are unaudited and include all adjustments that we consider necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements and consist only of normal recurring adjustments. The preparation of financial statements involves the use of estimates and accruals. The actual results that we experience may differ materially from those estimates. Results for interim periods should not be considered indicative of results for our full fiscal year, which ends the last Sunday in May. These financial statements and related condensed notes should be read together with the consolidated financial statements and notes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 25, 2025 (the “Form 10-K”), where we include additional information on our critical accounting estimates, policies, and the methods and assumptions used in our estimates. We filed the Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 23, 2025. Certain amounts from prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation. These reclassifications had no financial impact on previously reported net income, cash flows, or stockholders' equity. Accounting Pronouncements In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures , to enhance transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures, particularly around rate reconciliations and income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 is effective for our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2026, on a prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this guidance as of May 26, 2025, and will update disclosures within our fiscal 2026 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) , which requires companies to provide more detailed information of certain income statement expenses within the footnotes to the financial statements. ASU 2024-03 is effective for our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending May 28, 2028, and for our quarterly reports beginning fiscal year 2029, on a prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. There were no other accounting pronouncements recently issued that had or are expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. 8 Table of Contents 2. EARNINGS PER SHARE The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share for the periods presented: Thirteen Weeks Ended (in millions, except per share amounts) August 24, 2025 August 25, 2024 Numerator: Net income $ 64.3 $ 127.4 Denominator: Basic weighted average common shares outstanding 139.5 143.6 Add: Dilutive effect of employee incentive plans (a) 0.3 0.6 Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding 139.8 144.2 Earnings per share: Basic $ 0.46 $ 0.89 Diluted $ 0.46 $ 0.88 ___________________________________________ (a) Potential dilutive shares of common stock under employee incentive plans are determined by applying the treasury stock method to the assumed exercise of outstanding stock options and the assumed vesting of outstanding restricted stock units and performance awards. As of August 24, 2025 and August 25, 2024, 1.7 million and 0.8 million, respectively, shares of stock-based awards were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because they would be antidilutive. 3. INCOME TAXES Income tax expense for the periods presented were as follows: Thirteen Weeks Ended (in millions) August 24, 2025 August 25, 2024 Income before income taxes and equity method earnings $ 112.8 $ 166.9 Equity method investment earnings (loss) ( 0.6 ) 11.3 Income tax expense 47.9 50.8 Effective tax rate (a) 42.7 % 28.5 % ___________________________________________ (a) The effective income tax rate is calculated as the ratio of income tax expense to pre-tax income, inclusive of equity method investment earnings. The effective tax rate varies from the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21% principally due to the impact of U.S. state taxes, foreign taxes and currency, permanent differences, and discrete items. Compared to the thirteen weeks ended August 25, 2024, the effective tax rate is higher primarily due to having a larger proportion of losses in certain jurisdictions with no expected tax benefits. In addition, the thirteen weeks ended August 24, 2025 included $ 10.2 million of discrete tax expense, primarily related to the establishment of a full valuation allowance against certain international deferred tax assets. Income Taxes Paid Income taxes paid, net of refunds, were $ 9.7 million and $ 6.0 million during the thirteen weeks ended August 24, 2025 and August 25, 2024, respectively. 9 Table of Contents 4. RESTRUCTURING Restructuring expense includes charges from the Cost Savings Program, and the Company’s restructuring plan announced on October 1, 2024 (the “Restructuring Plan”, collectively referred to as the “Plans”). We expect to recognize total pre-tax cash charges of $ 70 million to $ 100 million, most of which will be paid in fiscal 2026, related to the Cost Savings Program. The charges in the first fiscal quarter of 2026 largely relate to professional service fees and employee severance and other one-time termination benefits related to headcount reductions. In connection with the Restructuring Plan, we have recognized $ 187.6 million of pre-tax charges since it was announced. We do not expect any future costs in connection with the Restructuring Plan at this time. For the thirteen weeks ended August 24, 2025, we recorded $ 31.9 million of pre-tax charges related to the Plans, all of which were cash charges. (in millions) Thirteen Weeks Ended August 24, 2025 Expenses related to: (a) Restructuring Plan Cost Savings Program Total Accelerated depreciation, retirement of assets, and other plant charges (b) $ 1.8 $ — $ 1.8 Employee-related costs (c) — 8.1 8.1 Professional services and other — 22.0 22.0 $ 1.8 $ 30.1 $ 31.9 ___________________________________________ (a) These charges were included in Cost of sales and Restructuring expense in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Earnings. They are included as “ unallocated corporate costs ” before being reconciled in the Segment Adjusted EBITDA to Net income table in Note 13, Segments, of these Condensed Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. (b) In the thirteen weeks ended August 24, 2025, all expenses relate to plant charges. (c) Includes employee severance and other one-time termination benefits related to reductions in headcount under the Cost Savings Program. Accruals remaining under the Plans are recorded as current liabilities within “Accounts payable” and “Accrued liabilities” in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet at August 24, 2025.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The fair values of cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, and short-term debt approximate their carrying amounts due to their short duration. The following table presents our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis based upon the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall: As of August 24, 2025 (in millions) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Fair Value of Assets (Liabilities) Derivative assets (a) $ — $ 16.2 $ — $ 16.2 Derivative liabilities (a) — ( 6.4 ) — ( 6.4 ) Deferred compensation liabilities (b) — ( 29.5 ) — ( 29.5 ) Fair value, net $ — $ ( 19.7 ) $ — $ ( 19.7 ) As of May 25, 2025 (in millions) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Fair Value of Assets (Liabilities) Derivative assets (a) $ — $ 10.2 $ — $ 10.2 Derivative liabilities (a) — ( 7.0 ) — ( 7.0 ) Deferred compensation liabilities (b) — ( 27.0 ) — ( 27.0 ) Fair value, net $ — $ ( 23.8 ) $ — $ ( 23.8 ) ___________________________________________ (a) Derivative assets and liabilities included in Level 2 primarily represent commodity swaps, option contracts, interest rate swap and currency contracts. The fair value of these derivatives were determined using valuation models that use market observable inputs including both forward and spot prices. Derivative assets are presented within “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” on our Consolidated Balance Sheets and derivative liabilities are presented within “Accrued liabilities” on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. (b) The fair values of our Level 2 deferred compensation liabilities were valued using third-party valuations, which are based on the net asset values of mutual funds in our retirement plans. While the underlying assets are actively traded on an exchange, the funds are not. Deferred compensation liabilities are primarily presented within “Other noncurrent liabilities” on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of August 24, 2025, we had $ 2,966.3 million of fixed-rate and $ 1,012.7 million of variable-rate debt outstanding. Based on current market rates, the fair value of our fixed-rate debt was estimated to be $ 2,888 million as of August 24, 2025. Any differences between the book value and fair value are due to the difference between the period-end market interest rate and the stated rate of our fixed-rate debt. The fair value of our variable-rate term debt approximates the carrying amount and approximates current market prices. 12.

As a result of how we manage the business, we have two operating segments, each of which is a reportable segment: North America and International. North America includes activity that occurs in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. International includes all activity that does not occur within the North America segment. Both segments primarily manufacture frozen potato products for sale to our customers. These reportable segments are each managed by a general manager and supported by a cross functional team assigned to support the segment. Our president and chief executive officer is our chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”). The CODM assesses the performance of our reportable segments and decides how to allocate resources based on segment adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”). The adjustments to EBITDA include unrealized mark-to-market derivative gains and losses (which are a component of both cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses), foreign currency exchange gains and losses (which are a component of selling, general and administrative expenses), blue chip swap transaction gains (which are a component of selling, general and administrative expenses), stock-based compensation (which is a component of selling, general and administrative expenses), and other items impacting comparability (which are a component of both cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses) that are described below (“Segment Adjusted EBITDA”). Net sales and Segment Adjusted EBITDA inform operating decisions, performance assessment, and resource allocation decisions at the segment level. Our CODM uses net sales and Segment Adjusted EBITDA in the annual operating plan and forecasting process and considers actual versus plan variances in assessing the performance of each segment. Total asset information by segment is not regularly provided to our CODM or utilized for purposes of assessing performance or allocating resources by segment and, as a result, such information has not been presented below. 15 Table of Contents The following table illustrates reportable segment net sales and Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the thirteen weeks ended August 24, 2025 and August 25, 2024, respectively. Thirteen Weeks Ended August 24, 2025 August 25, 2024 (in millions) North America International Total North America International Total Net Sales $ 1,084.6 $ 574.7 $ 1,659.3 $ 1,103.7 $ 550.4 $ 1,654.1 Other segment items (a) 824.6 517.5 1,342.1 825.7 499.0 1,324.7 Segment Adjusted EBITDA (b) $ 260.0 $ 57.2 $ 317.2 $ 278.0 $ 51.4 $ 329.4 Unallocated corporate costs (c) ( 15.0 ) ( 30.0 ) Depreciation and amortization (d) 96.3 91.4 Unrealized derivative gains ( 4.9 ) ( 8.9 ) Foreign currency exchange losses ( 4.7 ) 0.6 Blue chip swap gains (e) — ( 16.6 ) Stock-based compensation 10.6 9.5 Items impacting comparability: Cost Savings Program, Restructuring Plan, and other expenses (f) 31.9 — Shareholder activism expense (g) 4.0 — Pension settlement (h) 13.1 — Interest expense, net 43.7 45.2 Income before income taxes 112.2 178.2 Income tax expense 47.9 50.8 Net income $ 64.3 $ 127.4 ___________________________________________ (a) Other segment items include cost of sales, selling, general, and administrative expenses, and equity method investment income or loss for each segment. (b) Segment Adjusted EBITDA includes the following: i. Net income (loss) associated with our equity method investments. ii. For the thirteen weeks ended August 25, 2024, an estimated $ 39 million loss related to a voluntary product withdrawal that was initiated in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. The total charge to reporting segments was approximately $ 21 million to the North America segment and approximately $ 18 million to the International segment. (c) Unallocated corporate costs include costs related to corporate support staff and support services, which include, but are not limited to, our administrative, information technology, human resources, finance, and accounting functions that are not specifically allocated to the segments. In the table, unallocated corporate costs exclude unrealized derivative gains and losses, foreign currency exchange gains and losses, blue chip swap transaction gains, and items impacting comparability. These items are added back to reconcile Segment Adjusted EBITDA to net income. (d) Depreciation and amortization includes interest expense, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization from equity method investments of $ 2.2 million and $ 2.1 million for the thirteen weeks ended August 24, 2025 and August 25, 2024, respectively. (e) We entered into blue chip swap transactions to transfer U.S. dollars into Argentina primarily related to funding our capacity expansion in Argentina, which is now substantially complete. The blue chip swap rate can diverge significantly from Argentina's official exchange rate. (f) Cost Savings Program, Restructuring Plan, and other expenses relate to costs related to implementing the Plans. See Note 4, Restructuring, of these Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information (g) Represents advisory fees related to shareholder activism matters. (h) The Pension settlement charge was to fully fund the Company’s defined benefit pension plan, enabling lump sum payments to participants and transferring the remaining obligations and related plan assets to an insurer through a group annuity contract. 16 Table of Contents 14. COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES, GUARANTEES AND LEGAL PROCEEDINGS We have financial commitments and obligations that arise in the ordinary course of our business. These include long-term debt, lease obligations, and purchase commitments for goods and services. There have been no material changes to the commitments, contingencies, and guarantees disclosed in Note 14, Commitments, Contingencies, Guarantees, and Legal Proceedings, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in “Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of the Form 10-K. Legal Proceedings In June 2024, two putative class actions were filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Idaho against the Company and certain of our current and former executive officers alleging violations of the federal securities laws. The lawsuits were consolidated in November 2024. The amended consolidated complaint alleges the defendants made misrepresentations and omissions regarding the design and implementation of our enterprise resource planning system and the Company’s pricing practices. The complaint asserts claims on behalf of a proposed class of purchasers of the Company’s common stock between July 25, 2023 and December 19, 2024. On April 25, 2025, defendants filed a motion to dismiss. Briefing is complete but no hearing date has been set. In June 2025, a purported Company stockholder filed a verified stockholder derivative complaint (nominally on behalf of the Company) against certain of our current and former directors and officers, alleging violations of the federal securities laws and breach of fiduciary duty stemming from the same or similar purported misrepresentations and omissions regarding the design and implementation of our enterprise resource planning system as the putative class actions. The derivative lawsuit has been stayed pending resolution of the motion to dismiss in the securities class action. We believe the lawsuits lack merit and intend to vigorously defend against the allegations. We are currently unable to predict the outcome of this matter or estimate the range of potential loss, if any, that may result. In November 2024, a class action complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against the Company, certain of our subsidiaries and a number of other producers of frozen potato products alleging violations of antitrust laws. Additional class action complaints were later filed in the same court, based on similar allegations, bringing antitrust claims on behalf of putative classes of direct purchasers, commercial and institutional indirect purchasers, and end-consumer indirect purchasers. Some complaints name a data provider and a trade association as defendants, in addition to producers of frozen potato products. The complaints allege, among other things, that beginning at least as early as January 1, 2021, the defendants conspired to raise the price of frozen potato products above competitive levels in violation of U.S. antitrust laws by coordinating prices of frozen potato products and imposing lockstep price increases, allegedly facilitated by the exchange of non-public information about prices and production. The complaints on behalf of the putative classes of indirect purchasers also assert claims under various state laws, including state antitrust laws, unfair competition laws, consumer protection statutes, and common law unjust enrichment. The relief sought in the complaints includes treble damages, injunctive relief, pre- and post-judgment interest, costs and attorneys’ fees. The complaints for each putative class have been ordered to be consolidated and amended. Class actions based on similar allegations have also been filed in Canada, in the Supreme Court of British Columbia and the Superior Court of Quebec. We believe these complaints lack merit and intend to vigorously defend against the allegations. Given the preliminary stage of the proceedings, we are currently unable to predict the outcome of this matter or estimate the range of potential loss, if any, that may result. We are also a party to various other legal actions arising in the ordinary course of our business. These claims, legal proceedings and litigation principally arise from alleged casualty, product liability, employment, and other disputes. In determining loss contingencies, we consider the likelihood of loss as well as the ability to reasonably estimate the amount of such loss or liability. An estimated loss is recognized when it is considered probable that a liability has been incurred and when the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. While any claim, proceeding or litigation has an element of uncertainty, we believe the outcome of any of these that are pending or threatened will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows . 17 Table of Contents
