Executive Summary
Kraft Heinz Foods Company (guaranteed by The Kraft Heinz Company) filed a preliminary prospectus supplement for a senior notes offering, with proceeds intended to fund a concurrent tender offer for up to $1.1B of its outstanding 4.375% and 4.875% senior notes due 2046/2049. The filing follows a Q1 2026 earnings release (8-K, May 6) that showed adjusted EPS down 6.5% and adjusted operating income down 11.8%, providing context for the liability management transaction. The offering is a routine refinancing with no material equity impact, and key terms (size, coupon, maturity) remain undisclosed in this preliminary filing.
Key Facts
- Preliminary prospectus supplement filed May 7, 2026 for two series of senior notes (terms TBD).

- As of March 28, 2026, total debt was ~$21.018B (all unsecured) with $4B revolver capacity.
- Earnings (8-K, May 6) reported Q1 2026 GAAP EPS $0.67 (+13.6% YoY) but adjusted EPS fell 6.5% to $0.58.

Financial Impact
Undisclosed; new debt issued to refinance up to $1.1B of higher-coupon notes; net debt unchanged.
Risk Factors
