DARLING INGREDIENTS INC. 8-K

What Happened

• Darling Ingredients Inc. filed a Current Report on Form 8‑K (May 11, 2026) to furnish the slide presentation (Exhibit 99.1) used at its 2026 Investor Day.
• The Company states the slide deck will also be available via its investor relations/events webpage and provides a Regulation FD disclosure around the presentation.
• The filing emphasizes that the slides contain forward‑looking statements and refers investors to the Company’s Form 10‑K (fiscal year ended January 3, 2026) for additional risk factors.

Key Details

• Filing date: May 11, 2026; Exhibit: 99.1 (Investor Day slide presentation).
• Disclosure type: Item 7.01 (Regulation FD Disclosure); Exhibit furnished, not “filed” for Section 18 purposes and not automatically incorporated by reference.
• The presentation contains forward‑looking statements identified by common qualifiers (e.g., “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “could”) and warns actual results may differ materially.
• Lists a broad set of risks referenced in the slides and filings, including market demand for biofuels, raw material availability and prices, regulatory changes (e.g., biofuel tax credits and CFPC), operational/joint‑venture risks, disease outbreaks, trade issues, cyber risks, and macroeconomic factors.

Why It Matters

• The slide deck is the Company’s current public presentation of strategy, outlook and assumptions—investors should review it for management’s priorities and guidance context.
• Forward‑looking statements in the slides are subject to many specific risks; investors should read the related risk disclosures in Darling’s 10‑K to understand potential impacts.
• This 8‑K does not report new financial results or changes in management—its primary purpose is to make the Investor Day materials publicly available under Regulation FD.
