| Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
| NATURE OF OPERATIONS | NOTE 1 — NATURE OF OPERATIONS Dole plc is engaged in the worldwide sourcing, processing, distributing and marketing of high-quality fresh fruit and vegetables. Dole is a premier global leader in fresh produce, and the Company’s most significant products hold leading positions in their respective categories and territories. Dole is one of the largest producers of fresh bananas and pineapples, a major global exporter of grapes and have an expanding presence in avocados, mangos, kiwis, berries, cherries and organic produce. Dole conducts operations throughout North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Africa (primarily in South Africa). As a result of its global operating and financing activities, Dole is exposed to certain risks, including fluctuations in commodity and fuel costs, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, as well as other environmental and business risks in sourcing and selling locations. On August 1, 2025, the Company entered into a definitive agreement with OG Holdco LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“OG Holdco” or the “Buyer”), the parent company of organicgirl LLC, a portfolio company of Arable Capital Partners, LLC (“Arable”), pursuant to which Dole agreed to sell the fresh vegetables (“Fresh Vegetables”) division to OG Holdco (the “Vegetables Transaction”). On August 5, 2025, the Vegetables Transaction closed for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $140.0 million. Certain assets and liabilities of the Fresh Vegetables division were excluded from the Vegetables Transaction (“excluded assets and liabilities”). As a result of the Company’s exit of the Fresh Vegetables division (the “Vegetables exit process”), the Fresh Vegetables division’s results are reported separately as discontinued operations, net of income taxes, in the consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented and its assets and liabilities are separately presented in the consolidated balance sheets as assets and liabilities held for sale as of December 31, 2024. Additionally, its cash flows have been separately stated as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of cash flows for all periods presented. The excluded assets and liabilities of the Vegetables Transaction have been reclassified as continuing operations in the consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented as they no longer meet held-for-sale criteria. See Note 4 “Acquisitions and Divestitures” for additional detail.

| BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 2 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The financial statements herein are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”). In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements of Dole include all necessary adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, to present fairly Dole’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Dole’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of majority-owned subsidiaries over which Dole exercises control, entities that are not majority-owned but require consolidation, because Dole has the ability to exercise control over operating and financial policies or has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entities’ economic performance, and all variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which Dole is the primary beneficiary. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of consolidated entities are included from the effective date of control or, in the case of VIEs, from the date that Dole becomes the primary beneficiary. The results of subsidiaries sold or otherwise deconsolidated are excluded from consolidated results as of the date that Dole ceases to control the subsidiary or, in the case of VIEs, when Dole ceases to be the primary beneficiary. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts and disclosures reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the areas of customer and grower receivables, inventories, impairment of assets, useful lives of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, income taxes, retirement benefits, business combinations and divestitures, financial instruments and contingencies. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Revenue Recognition: Revenue is recognized when a performance obligation is satisfied as control of a good or service is transferred to a customer in the amount expected to be entitled at transfer. For each customer contract, the performance obligations are identified, the transaction price is allocated to the individual performance obligations, and revenue is recognized when these performance obligations are fulfilled and control of the good or service is transferred to the customer. The transfer of control of a good or service to customers is generally based on written sales terms that allow customers right of return when the good or service does not meet certain quality factors. Revenue consists primarily of product revenue, which includes the selling of fresh produce, health foods and consumer goods to third-party customers. Fresh produce comprises two main product categories, tropical fruit and diversified produce. Tropical fruit primarily consists of bananas, pineapples and plantains, and diversified produce primarily consists of all other fruit, vegetables and other produce. Product revenue also includes surcharges for additional product services such as freight, cooling, warehousing, fuel, containerization, handling and palletization related to the transfer of products. Additionally, the Company has certain marketing contracts where Dole is the principal, and the related product revenue and cost of sales are reported on a gross basis. Product revenue is recognized at a point in time when control of the goods has been transferred to the customer, which can be upon shipping or delivery, depending on the terms of sale. Revenue also includes service revenue, which includes third-party freight services and royalties for the use of the Company’s brands and trademarks. Additionally, the Company maintains a commercial cargo business where revenue is earned by providing handling and transportation services of containerized cargo on the Company’s vessels. Net service revenue was less than 10% of total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. See Note 5 “Revenue” for additional detail of the Company’s revenue by product and channel. Dole’s incremental costs of obtaining a contract have primarily consisted of sales commissions, and the Company has elected the practical expedient to expense these costs that are related to contracts that are less than one year. These costs are included in selling, marketing and general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. If these costs relate to contracts that are greater than one year, the incremental costs are capitalized as a contract asset and amortized over the period from which the contract is obtained until the performance obligations are met. Dole’s contracts are generally less than one year, and incremental costs of obtaining a contract are not material. The Company treats shipping and handling costs that occur after the customer obtains control of the good as a fulfillment cost rather than a service performance obligation. Additionally, Dole has elected the practical expedient to exclude sales tax and other taxes imposed by government authorities on revenue-producing transactions from the transaction price. The period between the transfer of a promised good or service to a customer and customer payment is expected to be less than one year and, as such, Dole has elected the practical expedient to not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component. Revenue is recorded net of any sales allowances, sales promotions and sales incentives. Sales allowances are calculated based on historical claims information. Dole offers sales promotions and sales incentives to its customers. Sales promotions are temporary price reductions on third-party sales, and sales incentives include consumer coupons and discounts, volume and timing rebates and product placement fees. Estimated sales discounts are recorded in the period in which the related sale is recognized. Volume rebates are recognized in the period of sale as a reduction of revenue based on Dole’s estimate of sales volume over the term of the arrangement. All other sales incentives are estimated using both historical trends and current volumes and assumptions. The Company also enters cooperative advertising arrangements in which Dole refunds a retailer for a portion of the costs incurred to advertise Dole’s products. The value of these arrangements is treated as a reduction of revenue, unless the arrangement is in exchange for a distinct good or service, in which case, these amounts are recorded in selling, marketing and general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Adjustments to sales estimates are made periodically as new information becomes available and actual sales volumes become known. Adjustments to these estimates have historically not been significant to Dole. Cost of Sales: Cost of sales primarily consists of costs associated with the production or purchasing of inventory, packaging materials, labor, depreciation, overhead, transportation and other distribution costs. Cost of sales also includes recurring agricultural costs and shipping and handling costs, which are detailed below. Agricultural Costs: Plant costs, including seeds, trees, vines and stems, and preproduction costs, including land preparation, pre-planting and planting costs, are generally capitalized into inventory and charged to cost of sales when the related crop is harvested and sold, with the exception of pineapples, in which the costs are generally expensed as incurred. Certain plant and preproduction costs are capitalized to property, plant and equipment, depending on the crop, and charged to cost of sales over their life. All land development costs, including farm and soil improvements, are capitalized to property, plant and equipment. The useful lives for plant, preproduction and land development costs capitalized to property, plant and equipment are 2 to 25 years and are based on historical yields, climate and weather conditions and likelihood of disease and pest interference. Recurring agricultural costs after the preproduction period, including ongoing pruning, fertilization, watering and farm labor, are generally capitalized into inventory and charged to cost of sales when the related crop is harvested and sold, with the exception of pineapples and bananas, in which the costs are expensed as incurred, due to the continuous nature of production and associated costs incurred throughout the year. Shipping and Handling Costs: Amounts billed to third-party customers for shipping and handling are included as a component of revenue. Shipping and handling costs incurred are included as a component of cost of sales and represent fulfillment costs incurred by Dole to ship products from the sourcing location to the end customer and are not considered separate performance obligations. Value-Added Taxes: Value-added taxes (“VAT”) that are collected from customers and remitted to taxing authorities are excluded from revenue and cost of sales. Receivables related to value-added taxes are included within other receivables, net, and other assets in the consolidated balance sheets, depending on the expected timing of collection. Payables related to VAT are included within payroll and other tax in the consolidated balance sheets. Marketing and Advertising Costs: Marketing and advertising costs, which include media, production and other promotional costs, are generally expensed in the period in which the marketing or advertising first takes place. Marketing and advertising costs, included in selling, marketing and general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations, amounted to $20.1 million, $19.5 million and $17.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Research and Development Costs: Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and are included in cost of sales or selling, marketing and general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations, depending on the nature of the project. Research and development costs amounted to $9.2 million, $8.9 million and $9.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Gain on Asset Sales: Gain on asset sales primarily consists of gains and losses incurred through the disposal of assets held for sale and actively marketed property and other property disposed in the ordinary course of business. See Note 11 “Assets Held For Sale and Actively Marketed Property” for additional detail. Gain on asset sales also includes gains or losses upon recognition of a sales-type lease. See Note 16 “Leases” for additional detail. Gain on Disposal of Businesses: Dole records and separately states the net gains and losses related to the disposal of businesses or subsidiaries. On February 27, 2024, Dole entered into a definitive agreement with PTF Holdings, LLC (“PTF Holdings”) pursuant to which Dole agreed to sell its 65% stake in Progressive Produce (the “Progressive Produce business”) to PTF Holdings for gross proceeds of $120.3 million in cash (the “Progressive Transaction”). On March 13, 2024, Dole completed the Progressive Transaction. As a result of the sale, Dole recognized an initial gain on the sale of $75.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. During the year ended December 31, 2025, Dole recognized an incremental gain on the sale of $0.4 million related to amounts that were released from escrow. See Note 4 “Acquisition and Divestitures” for further detail on the disposal of the Progressive Produce business. Interest Income: Interest income primarily comprises interest earned from funds invested and other receivables, such as interest earned on grower advances, and is recognized using the effective interest method over the term of the underlying agreement. Interest Expense: Interest expense comprises interest on borrowings, amortization of discounts and issuance costs related to borrowings, interest on finance lease liabilities, fees for the sale of trade receivables under securitization arrangements, debt extinguishment costs and arrangement fees for borrowings. Non-capitalized debt extinguishment costs and arrangement fees for borrowings incurred as a result of debt refinancing are included in other (expense) income, net. Income Taxes: Dole accounts for deferred taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amount and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in earnings in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount more likely than not to be realized. The Company recognizes the benefit of a tax position only to the extent that it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. If the tax position is deemed more-likely-than-not to be sustained, the tax position is then assessed to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the consolidated financial statements. The amount of the benefit that is recognized is the largest amount that is greater than 50.0% likely of being realized upon settlement. Income tax expense or benefit includes the effects of any resulting unrecognized tax benefits that are considered appropriate, as well as related net interest and penalties. In respect to undistributed earnings for foreign subsidiaries where those earnings are considered to be either indefinitely reinvested or could be distributed tax free, no deferred tax liability has been provided thereon. The Company releases income tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive loss as individual items in accumulated other comprehensive loss are settled or otherwise disposed. Discontinued Operations: The disposal or held for sale designation of a component or a group of components is presented as discontinued operations when it represents a strategic shift that had, or will have, a major effect on Dole’s operations and financial results. A component of an entity comprises operations and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished both operationally and for financial reporting purposes. The Fresh Vegetables division first met the held-for-sale criteria in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and management determined that it would represent a strategic shift that would have a material effect on the Company’s operations and results. As such, the results of the Fresh Vegetables division have been classified as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations for the periods presented, and its related assets and liabilities have been classified as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2024. See further detail in Note 4 “Acquisitions and Divestitures”. Earnings (loss) per share: Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net income or loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net income or loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, after the adjustment for the effects of potentially issuable shares, such as restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and stock options with a dilutive effect. Operating and Reportable Segments: Operating segments, defined as components of the Company that engage in business activities from which they earn revenue and incur expenses, are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The CODM, who is responsible for assessing performance and allocating resources amongst operating segments, is defined as the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Operating Officer (“COO”). Considering the exit from the Fresh Vegetables division, Dole has the following operating and reportable segments: Fresh Fruit, Diversified Fresh Produce – Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“Diversified Fresh Produce – EMEA”) and Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas and the Rest of the World (“Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas & ROW”). See further detail on operating and reportable segments in Note 6 “Segments”. Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and highly liquid investments, primarily money market funds and time deposits, with original maturities of three months or less. Whenever outstanding checks exceed cash balances, the balance of the book overdraft is reclassified to accounts payable in the consolidated balance sheets, and changes in book overdraft balances are presented within operating activities within the consolidated statements of cash flows. Restricted cash was not material as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and therefore are not separately stated in the consolidated balance sheets. Short-Term and Long-Term Investments: Dole sponsors various non-qualified benefit and executive compensation plans, with plan assets held in Rabbi Trusts. Short-term investments include the portion of the Rabbi Trust securities portfolio that approximates the short-term liability of the frozen non-qualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) defined benefit plan and the total liability of the non-qualified deferred compensation Excess Savings Plan (“ESP”). Long-term investments include the portion of the Rabbi Trust securities portfolio that will be used to fund a portion of the long-term liability of the SERP plan. Securities are recorded at fair value with realized and unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. Dole estimates the fair value of its investments using prices provided by its custodian. See Note 18 “Fair Value Measurements” for further detail on fair value disclosures. Trade Receivables: Trade receivables are recognized net of allowances, which approximates fair value. While in certain regions, the Company’s customer base consists of some large, key customers, credit risk related to trade receivables is mitigated due to the significant number of customers dispersed worldwide. To reduce credit risk, Dole performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers but does not generally require advance payments or collateral. Expected credit losses for newly recognized trade receivables, as well as changes to existing expected credit losses during the period, are recognized in selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Refer to Note 8 “Receivables and Allowances for Credit Losses” for further detail on how the Company estimates these credit losses. No individual customer accounted for more than 10.0% of Dole’s revenue during the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, nor accounted for greater than 10.0% of Dole’s account receivables as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Dole regularly sells a portion of its trade receivables under arrangements with third-party financial institutions. The Company accounts for the transfers of trade receivables as sales when it has surrendered control, at which point the receivables are derecognized. Determining when control has transferred requires evaluation of the nature and extent of the Company’s involvement with the transferred receivables as well as consideration of certain legal and other factors. See Note 8 “Receivables and Allowances for Credit Losses” for further detail. Grower Advances: Dole makes advances to third-party growers for various production needs. Some of these advances are secured with crop harvests or other collateral owned by the growers. Dole monitors these receivables on a regular basis and estimates expected credit losses for all outstanding grower advances to determine if a related impairment loss and allowance should be recognized. These expected credit losses are evaluated on a case-by-case basis and are based on factors such as historical credit loss information, the timing of the growing season and expected yields, the fair value of the collateral, macroeconomic indicators, weather conditions, and other miscellaneous factors. Grower advances are stated at the gross advance amount less allowances for expected credit losses. Dole generally considers an advance to a grower to be past due when the advance is not fully recovered by the excess cash proceeds on the current year crop harvest or when the advance is not repaid by the excess cash proceeds by the end of the supply term agreement. Grower advances are disaggregated into short-term advances that mature in one year or less, which are included within grower advance receivables, net, in the consolidated balance sheets and long-term advances that are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. See Note 8 “Receivables and Allowances for Credit Losses” for further detail on grower advances. Other Receivables: Other receivables consists primarily of receivables from governmental institutions, hedging receivables and miscellaneous non-trade receivables from customers, suppliers, and other third parties. These receivables are recorded net of allowances established based on specific account data and factors such as historical losses, current economic conditions, age of receivables, the value of any collateral and payment status compared to payment terms. Receivables are written off against the allowance once management determines the receivable is uncollectible. See Note 8 “Receivables and Allowances for Credit Losses” for further detail on other receivables. Concentration of Credit Risk: Financial instruments that potentially subject Dole to a concentration of credit risk principally consist of cash equivalents, investments, derivative contracts and grower advances. Credit risk related to trade receivables is mitigated through the Company’s significant customer base and periodic credit valuations. Dole’s cash and investments are maintained with high quality financial institutions. Dole’s derivative contracts, which are discussed in greater detail below, are with major financial institutions. Dole’s grower advances are principally with farming enterprises and may be secured by the underlying crop harvests or other collateral. Inventories: Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Costs related to fresh produce are determined on the first-in, first-out basis. Specific identification and average cost methods are also used primarily for certain packing materials and operating supplies. In the normal course of business, the Company incurs certain crop growing costs such as land preparation, planting, fertilization, grafting, pruning and irrigation. Based on the nature of these costs and type of crop production, these costs may be capitalized into inventory. Generally, all recurring direct and indirect costs of growing crops for fresh produce other than bananas and pineapples are capitalized into inventory. These costs are recognized into cost of sales during each harvest period. Due to the nature of the Company’s inventory, such as quick inventory turnover rates, reserves for excess production and obsolescence are not significant. Details of inventory in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were as follows:
Physical goods that have completed production and are held for sale in the ordinary course of business are classified as finished products. Inventories classified as raw materials represent goods that will be consumed in production, such as fresh fruit or vegetables to be modified from their original form and those awaiting packaging. Goods that are in the course of production are classified as work in progress. Packaging materials represent items such as consumer packing, labels and pallets utilized directly in the production process. Inventories classified as crop growing costs include costs incurred up to the time crops are produced in commercial quantities. In addition, agricultural and other operating supplies that are consumed indirectly in production, such as ripening agents, fertilizer and fuel, are also capitalized into inventory. Assets Held for Sale and Actively Marketed Property: Dole reports a business or assets as held for sale when management has approved or received approval to sell the business or assets and is committed to a formal plan, the business or assets are available for immediate sale, the business or assets are being actively marketed, the sale is anticipated to occur during the ensuing year and the other specified criteria for held for sale classification are met. In certain situations when timing of the sale of land is uncertain and held-for-sale criteria are not met, Dole classifies such assets as actively marketed property. A business or assets classified as held for sale or land classified as actively marketed property are recorded at the lower of their carrying amount or estimated fair value less cost to sell. If their carrying amount exceeds their estimated fair value, a loss is recognized. Depreciation is not recorded on assets classified as held for sale or on land improvements associated with actively marketed property. Assets and liabilities related to a business classified as held for sale and actively marketed property are segregated in the consolidated balance sheets, and major classes are separately disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, commencing in the period in which the business or assets are classified as held for sale or actively marketed. See Note 11 “Assets Held For Sale and Actively Marketed Property” for additional detail. Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates: Investments in unconsolidated affiliates and joint ventures with ownership by Dole of 20.0% to 50.0% are recorded using the equity method, provided Dole has the ability to exercise significant influence. In addition, entities in which the Company has variable interests are also recorded using the equity method when it is determined that the Company is not the primary beneficiary in the relationship but has the ability to exercise significant influence. Under the equity method of accounting, a share of earnings and losses based on Dole’s ownership percentage in the investment is recorded in earnings each period. All material equity method investments have the same fiscal year-end as Dole. Where appropriate, the accounting policies of equity method investments have been adjusted to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by Dole. All other unconsolidated investments where we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence are recorded at cost less impairment, adjusted for any observable price changes, as their fair value is not readily determinable. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, substantially all of Dole’s investments in unconsolidated affiliates have been accounted for under the equity method. Dole evaluates its equity method investments and investments held at cost for impairment when facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such investments may not be recoverable. Dole reviews several factors to determine whether the loss is other than temporary, such as the length and extent of the fair value decline, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the investee and whether Dole has the intent to sell or will be required to sell before the investment’s anticipated recovery. If a decline in fair value is determined to be other than temporary, an impairment charge is recorded in equity method earnings (loss) in the consolidated statements of operations. See Note 22 “Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates” for additional detail on the Company’s unconsolidated investments. Property, Plant and Equipment: Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost plus any asset retirement costs, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of these assets. Dole reviews long-lived assets to be held and used for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset group may not be recoverable. If an evaluation of recoverability is required, the estimated undiscounted future cash flows directly associated with the asset are compared to the asset’s carrying amount. If this comparison indicates that there is an impairment, the amount of the impairment is calculated by comparing the carrying value to discounted expected future cash flows or comparable market values, depending on the nature of the asset group. In the case that an asset is reclassified from held for sale to held for use due to a change in plan of sale, an impairment is calculated to record the asset at the lower of carrying amount (adjusted for depreciation had these assets been continuously classified as held and used) and fair value. Routine maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Dry-Docking Costs: Dole incurs costs for planned major maintenance activities related to its vessels during regularly scheduled dry dockings that occur approximately every 2 to 7 years, depending on the age of the vessel. Costs incurred during the dry-docking period, such as overhaul costs, are capitalized and amortized to the next overhaul. Routine repairs and maintenance related to vessels are expensed as incurred and included in cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations. Amortization costs related to dry-docking are also included in cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations. See Note 12 “Property, Plant and Equipment” for additional detail on the major classes of property, plant and equipment and their respective useful lives. Leases: Dole leases fixed assets for use in operations where leasing offers advantages of operating flexibility and is less expensive than alternative types of funding. Dole’s leases are evaluated at inception and any subsequent modification and, depending on the lease terms, are classified as either finance or operating leases. For leases with terms greater than one year, the Company recognizes a related asset (“right-of-use asset” or “lease asset”) and obligation (“lease liability”) on the lease commencement date, calculated as the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Right-of-use assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Dole’s leases may include rental escalation clauses, renewal options and termination options that are factored into the determination of lease payments and lease term when appropriate. Dole’s lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees. The majority of Dole’s leases are classified as operating leases. Dole’s principal operating leases have historically been for vessel containers that do not meet the finance lease criteria, ports, land, warehouse facilities, vehicles and machinery and equipment. Dole’s finance leases primarily have historically been for vessels, vessel containers and machinery and equipment that meet the finance lease criteria. Dole’s decision to exercise any renewal options is primarily dependent on the level of business conducted at the location and the profitability of the renewal. The Company has elected to account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component in contracts where Dole is the lessee. When available, the rate implicit in the lease is used to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of Dole’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company’s estimated incremental borrowing rate is used to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. When the Company acts as a lessor for contracts that contains a lease component, the Company allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of their relative standalone prices at inception or modification of the lease. Also, the Company determines whether each lease is classified as a sales-type, direct financing or an operating lease. Dole recognizes income earned from operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term as a part of other (expense), income, net, in the consolidated statements of operations. Goodwill and Intangible Assets: Goodwill represents the excess cost of a business acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired, including the amount assigned to identifiable intangible assets. Dole tests goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level annually on the first day of the fourth quarter of each fiscal year and when there is an indicator of impairment. Dole defines each of its operating business segments as reporting units. The reporting units with allocated goodwill include Fresh Fruit, Diversified Fresh Produce – EMEA, and Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas & ROW. Other indefinite-lived intangible assets are also reviewed for impairment annually on the first day of the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. For the annual goodwill impairment test, management may assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of each reporting unit with goodwill is less than its carrying amount. These qualitative factors include market and industry considerations, overall financial performance and other relevant events and factors affecting the reporting unit. If the results of the qualitative assessment indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, a quantitative assessment is required for that reporting unit. Alternatively, the Company may bypass the qualitative assessment and perform a quantitative assessment. In fiscal year 2025, Dole elected to bypass the qualitative test and performed a quantitative goodwill impairment assessment. The quantitative assessment involves comparing the fair value of each reporting unit with allocated goodwill to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds it estimated fair value, an impairment of goodwill is recognized up to the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. Fair values for reporting units are generally determined using a discounted cash flow model involving market multiples or appraised values, if appropriate. The present value models involve inputs which are sensitive and judgmental in nature, such as estimates of future financial performance, long-term cash flow projections and discount rates. Dole’s other indefinite-lived intangible assets, primarily consisting of the DOLE® brand, are considered to have an indefinite life, because they are expected to generate cash flows indefinitely and, as such, are not amortized. The Company may perform a qualitative assessment for each indefinite-lived intangible asset to determine if it is more likely than not that the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value, which would require a quantitative assessment. The quantitative test compares the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount exceeds fair value, an impairment loss is recognized. Dole may also elect to bypass the qualitative assessment and perform a quantitative assessment. In fiscal year 2025, Dole elected to bypass the qualitative assessment and perform a quantitative test for the DOLE® brand. Dole determined the fair value of the DOLE® brand by using a relief-from-royalty method, involving inputs such as projected revenue and long-term growth rates, royalty rates and discount rates. Dole’s definite-lived intangible assets include customer relationships, supplier relationships and local brands, that are initially recorded at fair value and amortized on a straight-line basis over 3 to 15 years. See Note 13 “Goodwill and Intangible Assets” for additional detail. Bank Overdrafts: The Company and its subsidiaries have a number of bank overdraft facilities which are primarily used to fund seasonal working capital requirements. The facilities contain covenants customary for unsecured facilities of this kind, including financial covenants on maximum leverage and minimum interest cover. Bank overdrafts are classified as a current liability in the consolidated balance sheets. See Note 14 “Debt” for additional detail. Debt: Debt is carried at the principal amount borrowed, including unamortized discounts and premiums and debt issuance costs, when applicable. Debt discounts and issuance costs are amortized over the term of the debt agreement using the effective interest method and are presented as a direct reduction of debt in the consolidated balance sheets, except for those issuance costs related to revolving credit facilities or line-of-credit arrangements which are amortized on a straight-line basis and presented as an other current asset or other asset, depending on maturity date, in the consolidated balance sheets. See Note 14 “Debt” for additional detail. Derivative Financial Instruments: Dole holds derivative instruments to hedge against risks in foreign currency exchange, fuel costs and interest rates on long-term borrowings. Dole estimates the fair value of its derivatives, including any credit valuation adjustments, using market-based inputs. All realized gains and losses under designated cash flow hedges are included in earnings in the consolidated statements of operations, and unrealized gains and losses are included in other comprehensive income (loss). For all other hedges not designated as hedging instruments, all realized and unrealized gains and losses are recorded in the same line item within the consolidated statements of operations as the activity that is being hedged from a financial risk management perspective, with the exception of non-designated interest rate swaps which are insignificant. We also classify the cash flows from our cash flow hedges and fair value hedges in the same category as the items being hedged on our consolidated statements of cash flows. Fair Value Hedges: The Company enters into fair value hedges to hedge foreign currency exposure of certain non-functional currency denominated assets and liabilities. Dole enters into foreign currency forward contracts primarily to hedge the changes in fair value of certain intercompany loans and certain receivables and payables denominated in a foreign currency. Cash Flow Hedges: The Company enters into cash flow hedges to hedge against variability in certain expected future cash flows related to foreign currency exchange and interest rates on long-term borrowings. Dole enters into foreign currency exchange forward contracts and option contracts to hedge a portion of its forecasted revenue, cost of sales and operating expense. In order to mitigate interest rate uncertainty on long-term debt, Dole also enters into interest rate swap agreements. See Note 17 “Derivative Financial Instruments” for additional detail on derivative instruments. Fair Value of Financial Instruments: Dole’s financial instruments primarily comprise of cash and cash equivalents, short and long-term investments, short-term trade and grower receivables, trade payables and notes receivable, as well as long-term grower receivables, finance lease obligations, asset-based loans, contingent consideration and term loan facilities. The carrying amounts of short-term instruments, excluding Dole’s short-term Rabbi Trust investments that are recorded at fair value, approximate fair value because of their short maturity. Dole’s contingent consideration and long-term Rabbi Trust investments are recorded at fair value. Carrying amounts of other long-term financial instruments, excluding Dole’s term loans and certain loan receivables, approximate fair value, since the instruments bear interest at variable or fixed rates which approximate market rates. See Note 18 “Fair Value Measurements” for additional detail. Dole also holds retirement plan assets which are measured at fair value. Dole estimates the fair value of its retirement plan assets based on quoted market prices, dependent on availability. In instances where quoted market prices are not readily available, the fair value of the investment securities is estimated based on pricing models using observable or unobservable inputs. As a practical expedient, the Company uses net asset value (“NAV”) to measure certain investments without a readily determinable fair value within the Company’s pension asset portfolio. See Note 15 “Employee Benefit Plans” for additional detail. Foreign Currency Exchange: The functional currency of Dole is the U.S. dollar. For subsidiaries with transactions that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency, the net foreign currency exchange transaction gains or losses resulting from the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities to the functional currency are included in the consolidated statements of operations. Transaction gains and losses were not material in the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Net foreign currency exchange gains or losses resulting from the translation of assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the U.S. Dollar are recorded as a part of the cumulative translation adjustment in stockholders’ equity. Pension and Postretirement Benefits: Dole sponsors several defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement benefit (“OPRB”) plans covering certain eligible employees. The funded status of these plans is recorded on the consolidated balance sheets, with overfunded plans presented in other assets and underfunded plans presented in pension and postretirement benefit liabilities. Net benefit obligations of underfunded plans that are due over the next year are presented as current liabilities. Actuarial assumptions including discount rates, salary increases, expected return on plan assets, mortality and other factors are used to measure the funded status and annual expense of the plans. Obligations and any assets associated with pension and postretirement benefit plans are measured at fair value as of December 31 each year. See Note 15 “Employee Benefit Plans” for additional detail. Stock-Based Compensation: Stock-based compensation for Dole consists of RSUs and stock options. At their grant date, RSUs with only a service condition are valued using the current share price, RSUs with a market condition are valued using a Monte Carlo simulation approach and stock options are valued using the Black Scholes pricing model. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period of each award. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest (“NCI”): If a put option is held by a NCI in a subsidiary undertaking, whereby the holder of the put option can require Dole to acquire the NCI's ownership in the subsidiary at a future date, the Company examines the nature of such a put option to determine whether the put option is a separate financial instrument to, or embedded within, the NCI. As the Company’s NCI containing put options have exercise prices based on future earnings of the related consolidated subsidiaries that are redeemable at the option of the holder and meet the criteria for mezzanine classification, they are classified as redeemable NCI as mezzanine equity in the consolidated balance sheets. The options do not contain a limit to the amount that the Company could be required to pay upon exercise by the holder, and the embedded put and call features do not meet the criteria for bifurcation. Both permanent and mezzanine-classified NCI are measured at fair value on the acquisition date. Each reporting period, net income and comprehensive income of a consolidated subsidiary is allocated to the controlling interest and NCI. When redemption of a mezzanine-classified NCI becomes probable, the NCI is accreted to its redemption value with the offset recorded to additional paid-in-capital in the consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity. These changes are accreted over the period prior to the earliest redemption date or recognized immediately. As of December 31, 2025, the $29.7 million of redeemable NCI in the consolidated balance sheets represents the carrying value of the redeemable NCI. The total gross redemption value of the instruments was $40.3 million, had the options been exercised as of December 31, 2025, payable over a maximum of four years. Guarantees: Dole makes guarantees as part of its normal business activities. Dole’s guarantees include guarantees of the indebtedness of some of its key fruit suppliers and other entities integral to Dole’s operations. Dole also issues bank guarantees as required by certain regulatory authorities, suppliers and other operating agreements, as well as to support the borrowings, leases and other obligations of its subsidiaries. The majority of Dole’s guarantees relate to guarantees of subsidiary obligations and are scoped out of the initial measurement and recognition accounting requirements related to guarantees. See Note 19 “Contingencies” for further detail on the Company’s guarantees. Business Combinations: Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Application of this method of accounting requires that (i) identifiable assets acquired (including identifiable intangible assets) and liabilities assumed generally be measured at fair value as of the acquisition date, and (ii) the excess of the purchase price over the net fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized as goodwill. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the allocation of the purchase price requires management to use significant judgment and estimates, especially with respect to intangible assets. Estimates in valuing certain identifiable assets include, but are not limited to, the selection of valuation methodologies, estimates of future revenue and cash flows, expected long-term market growth, future expected operating expenses, costs of capital and appropriate discount rates. Management's estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable, and as a result, actual values may differ from these estimates. During the measurement period, certain adjustments may be recorded to the carrying fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. After the measurement period, which could last up to one year after the transaction date, all adjustments are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. The NCI in acquired businesses are measured at fair value at the date of acquisition and are separately presented within stockholders' equity, distinct from equity attributable to Dole. Each reporting period, net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) of consolidated subsidiaries in which NCI are held are attributed to that NCI based on their equity interest in each consolidated subsidiary. Contingent consideration is recognized and measured at fair value at the acquisition date. Any obligation of the Company to pay contingent consideration in connection with a business combination is classified as a liability as required by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity; otherwise, it is classified as equity. Post-combination accounting for contingent consideration is impacted by its initial classification. When it is classified as a liability, it is remeasured at each reporting date at fair value, and any changes in fair value are reported within earnings. When it is classified as equity, the contingent consideration is not subsequently remeasured, and its settlement is accounted for within equity. Dole’s contingent consideration represents the provision for the net present value of the amounts expected to be payable for acquisitions which are subject to earn-out arrangements and is expected to be paid between 2026 and 2027. Contingencies: Estimated losses from contingencies are recognized at fair value if it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred as of the date of the financial statements and the amount of that loss can be reasonably estimated. Gain contingencies are not recognized until realized. Judgment is used to assess whether a loss contingency is probable and estimable, and actual results may differ from that estimate. See Note 19 “ Contingencies” for further detail on the Company’s contingencies.

| BUSINESS COMBINATIONS AND TRANSACTIONS | ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES Vegetables Exit Process On August 1, 2025, the Company entered into the Vegetables Transaction with OG Holdco, pursuant to which Dole agreed to sell the Fresh Vegetables division to OG Holdco for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $140.0 million comprising of approximately $90.0 million in cash and $50.0 million in the form of a non-contingent seller note (“seller note”) (collectively, the “Purchase Price”), and a $10.0 million potential earn-out payment (“earn-out”). The seller note accrues interest quarterly (5.0% paid-in-kind) and the outstanding principal is due on December 31, 2030 with no prepayment penalty. The earn-out is contingent on the Fresh Vegetables division meeting certain return on investment (“ROI”) targets over a 4-year period beginning in fiscal year 2027. The cash portion of the Purchase Price is subject to customary adjustments for net working capital, cash and indebtedness. On August 5, 2025 (“closing date”), the Vegetables Transaction closed and the Company completed the Vegetables exit process. The carrying value of net assets and noncontrolling interests sold (the “disposal group”) of the Fresh Vegetables division amounted to $141.8 million, including cash of $28.0 million, comprising substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the former Fresh Vegetables reportable segment. Total estimated consideration of the Purchase Price (including estimates of net working capital, cash and indebtedness) and the earn-out was recorded at fair value of $144.2 million, of which $11.0 million was allocated to lease transactions for the right to use certain cooler facilities (“cooler facilities”) for up to five years which were excluded from the disposal group. The seller note was recorded at fair value by assessing the expected future cash flows and discounting to net present value. The Company performed a probability assessment of the likelihood of the disposal group meeting the established ROI targets based on historical performance and forecasted earnings to record the earn-out at fair value. The aggregate total estimated fair value of the seller note and earn-out was $40.0 million as of the closing date based on unobservable (Level 3) inputs. The Company recognized a pre-tax loss on the disposal of the Fresh Vegetables division of $14.7 million which includes $6.1 million of transaction costs. The pre-tax loss is included in loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, in the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025. The total income tax impact of the Vegetables Transaction, including the release of deferred tax liabilities associated with the disposal group as a result of the Vegetables Transaction being structured as an asset sale, is a net income tax benefit of $3.5 million, included within the income tax benefit of discontinued operations in the year ended December 31, 2025. Total cash inflows from the Vegetables Transaction were $68.0 million, adjusted for estimated net working capital adjustments, indebtedness items and amounts held in escrow, and is also net of transaction costs paid. The net cash inflow is included in continuing operations proceeds from the sale of businesses in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The cooler facilities, along with certain leases, employee-related and legal liabilities, were excluded from the disposal group of the Vegetables Transaction. The cooler facilities are being leased back to the Buyer through the terms of the Vegetables Transaction. The excluded assets and liabilities have been reclassified as held and used in continuing operations in the consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. The property, plant and equipment, net and operating lease right-of-use assets associated with the excluded assets and liabilities have been reclassified as held and used at the lower of carrying amount (adjusted for depreciation and amortization had these assets been continuously classified as held and used) and fair value, resulting in aggregate impairment charges of $8.2 million, included in impairment and asset write-downs of property, plant and equipment and lease assets in the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Fresh Vegetables division first met the held-for-sale criteria in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and the Company determined that it would represent a strategic shift that would have a material effect on the Company’s operations and results. As such, the results of the Fresh Vegetables division have been classified as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations for the periods presented, and its related assets and liabilities have been classified as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2023 and onwards. As a result, depreciation on property, plant and equipment and amortization on operating lease right-of-use assets have ceased as of March 31, 2023. The total amount of depreciation and amortization not recorded from March 31, 2023 to closing date was $103.6 million. In accordance with held for sale disposal group measurement guidance, an after-tax cumulative loss of $123.5 million (gross cumulative loss of $165.8 million less a deferred tax credit of $42.3 million) has been recorded prior to the closing date to adjust the carrying amount of the Fresh Vegetables division to its estimated fair value, less costs to sell. The after-tax impact of this loss in the year ended December 31, 2025 was $45.3 million (gross loss of $60.9 million net of a deferred tax credit of $15.5 million). The estimated fair value was based on ongoing negotiations with potential market participants and therefore utilizes unobservable (Level 3) inputs. Dole does not anticipate having significant continuing involvement with the Fresh Vegetables division with the exception of limited transition services arrangements that are not expected to be material to Dole’s continuing operations. Any subsequent transactions with the Buyer will be at arms-length terms. The following tables present the results of the Fresh Vegetables division as reported in (loss) income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, in the consolidated statements of operations and the carrying value of assets and liabilities as presented within discontinued operations assets and liabilities held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets.
1 Net interest expense presented within discontinued operations is net of interest income. 2 Loss on disposal of business and classification as held for sale before income taxes includes the loss on disposal of $14.7 million and the loss upon classification as held for sale of $60.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. 3 Income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2025 includes a net benefit (expense) of $3.5 million from the Transaction, comprised of a $7.1 million income tax expense related to the disposal and $10.6 million income tax benefit upon release of the deferred tax liabilities associated with the disposal group due to the Transaction being structured as an asset sale. 4 Represents results up to the closing date of the Fresh Vegetables transaction, including the financial effects of the Vegetables Transaction.
1As of December 31, 2024, Fresh Vegetables sold its trade receivables under the facility with recourse provisions described in Note 8 “Receivables and Allowances for Credit Losses”, amounting to $62.2 million. Prior to the closing date, Fresh Vegetables’ position under the facility was settled and these receivables were included within the disposal group. Sale of Progressive Produce On February 27, 2024, Dole entered into the Progressive Transaction pursuant to which Dole agreed to sell its 65.0% stake in the Progressive Produce business to PTF Holdings. The Progressive Produce business was reported within the Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas and ROW reportable segment. For the year ended December 31, 2024, Dole recognized net cash proceeds of $117.8 million and a gain on the sale of $75.9 million, included within gain on disposal of businesses in the consolidated statements of operations. The carrying amount of net assets sold amounted to $41.9 million, including allocated goodwill of $36.0 million. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, Progressive Produce comprised $77.9 million and $426.4 million, respectively of Dole’s consolidated net revenue. Associated transaction costs were not material. During the year ended December 31, 2025, Dole recognized an incremental gain on the sale of $0.4 million related to amounts that were released from escrow. Port Sale Transaction On December 13, 2025, a subsidiary of the Company entered into a series of sales and purchases agreements that, if and when completed, will result in the sale of 100% of the membership interests in the Company’s port properties and associated operations in Guayaquil, Ecuador (the “Ecuadorian Port Business”), to Terminal Investment Limited Holding S.A. (the “Port Buyer”) (collectively referred to herein as the “Port Sale Transaction”). Net cash proceeds of the Port Sale Transaction, after costs and customary transaction completion adjustments, are expected to be approximately $75.0 million. The sales and purchase agreements for the Port Sale Transaction contain customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification provisions, and the consummation of the Port Sale Transaction is subject to regulatory approvals under the laws of Ecuador. The Port Transaction is expected to close in 2026 at a net gain. The Company is expected to continue to utilize the Ecuadorian Port Business after closing pursuant to an agreement with the Port Buyer to provide terminal services on arm’s length terms, including the loading and discharging of containers. As a result of the planned disposal of Ecuadorian Port Business, its assets and liabilities (“Port disposal group”) have been reclassified into held for sale as of December 31, 2025. See Note 11 “Assets Held for Sale and Actively Marketed Property” for additional detail. Other Acquisitions and Divestitures The Company normally engages in acquisitions to grow its business and product offerings and in divestitures to align with Dole’s long-term strategy. Other acquisitions and divestitures of subsidiaries in the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were not material. See Note 22 “Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates” for additional detail on acquisitions and divestitures related to investments in unconsolidated affiliates.

| SEGMENTS | SEGMENTS Accounting for the exit from the Fresh Vegetables division, Dole has the following three reportable segments, which align with the manner in which the business is managed: Fresh Fruit, Diversified Fresh Produce – EMEA and Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas & ROW. The Company’s reportable segments are based on (i) financial information reviewed by the CODM, defined as the CEO and COO, (ii) internal management and related reporting structures and (iii) the basis upon which the CODM assesses performance and allocates resources. Fresh Fruit: The Fresh Fruit reportable segment primarily sells bananas, pineapples and plantains which are sourced from Dole-owned and leased farms or local growers, predominately located in Latin America, and sold throughout North America, Europe, Latin America and Asia. This segment also operates a commercial cargo business, which offers available capacity to transport third party cargo on company-owned vessels that are primarily used internally for transporting bananas and pineapples between Latin America, North America and Europe.

Segment performance is evaluated based on a variety of factors, of which revenue and adjusted earnings before interest expense, income taxes and depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) are the financial measures regularly reviewed by the CODM. The CODM uses Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA in assessing the performance of each segment. Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA are used to monitor budget versus actual operating results to evaluate the performance of a segment, make decisions on capital and operating funding, consider opportunities to increase profitability and establish management’s compensation. Management does not use assets by segment to evaluate performance or allocate resources. Therefore, assets by segment are not disclosed. All transactions between reportable segments are eliminated in consolidation. Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled below to net income by (1) adding the income or subtracting the loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes; (2) subtracting the income tax expense or adding the income tax benefit; (3) subtracting interest expense; (4) subtracting depreciation charges; (5) subtracting amortization charges on intangible assets; (6) subtracting mark to market losses or adding mark to market gains related to unrealized impacts from certain derivative instruments and foreign currency denominated borrowings, realized impacts on noncash settled foreign currency denominated borrowings, net foreign currency impacts on liquidated entities and fair value movements on contingent consideration; (7) other items which are separately stated based on materiality, which, during the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, included subtracting impairment charges on goodwill, adding or subtracting asset write-downs from extraordinary events, net of insurance proceeds, adding the gain or subtracting the loss on the disposal of business interests, adding the gain or subtracting the loss on asset sales for assets held for sale and actively marketed property or sales-type leases, subtracting impairment charges or held for sale classification losses on property, plant and equipment and lease assets, adding interest income on deferred transaction consideration, subtracting acquisition and transaction costs, subtracting restructuring charges and costs for legal matters not in the ordinary course of business, subtracting debt refinancing expenses and subtracting costs incurred for the cyber-related incident; and (8) the Company’s share of these items from equity method investments. The following tables provide revenue, other segment items and Adjusted EBITDA by reportable segment:
1 The difference between Segment Revenue and Segment Adjusted EBITDA is other segment items for each segment. Other segment items for each segment include the following: 1) cost of sales, inclusive of intersegment amounts and exclusive of depreciation and mark-to-market activity as defined above; 2) selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses, exclusive of depreciation, amortization and restructuring and legal costs not in the normal course of business; 3) gain on asset sales for disposals of property, plant and equipment that do not qualify as assets held for sale or actively marketed property or sales-type leases; 4) impairment and asset write-downs of property, plant and equipment that are not extraordinary in nature; 5) other (expense) income, net, exclusive of debt refinancing expenses, acquisition and transaction costs and mark-to-market activity as defined above; 6) interest income, exclusive of interest income on deferred transaction consideration; and 7) equity method earnings, exclusive of the Company’s share of depreciation, amortization, income taxes, interest and other items.

| Receivables [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| RECEIVABLES AND ALLOWANCES FOR CREDIT LOSSES | RECEIVABLES AND ALLOWANCES FOR CREDIT LOSSES Trade Receivables Trade receivables as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were $539.8 million and $473.5 million, net of allowances for credit losses of $20.6 million and $19.5 million, respectively. Trade receivables are also recorded net of allowances for sales deductions under the scope of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. As a result of Dole’s robust credit monitoring practices, the industry in which it operates and the nature of its customer base, the credit losses associated with trade receivables have historically not been significant in comparison to net revenue and gross trade receivables. The allowance for credit losses on trade receivables is measured on a collective pool basis, when the Company believes similar risk characteristics exist among customers. Trade receivables that do not share similar risk characteristics are evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Dole estimates expected credit losses based on ongoing monitoring of customer credit, macroeconomic indicators and historical credit losses based on customer and geographic region. A rollforward of the allowance for credit losses for trade receivables for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was as follows:
Dole utilizes third-party trade receivables sales arrangements to help manage its liquidity. Certain arrangements contain recourse provisions in which Dole’s maximum financial loss is limited to a percentage of receivables sold under the arrangements. In May 2025, the Company amended and extended its arrangement with Rabobank, which contains such recourse provisions, with the revised end date of May 7, 2028. Dole derecognizes all sold receivables from the consolidated balance sheets, as it accounts for the transfers as sales under ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing. Total facility amounts under these recourse trade receivable arrangements were $255.0 million as of December 31, 2025. Total facility amounts under other non-recourse trade receivables arrangements were $30.0 million as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The facilities mature on May 7, 2028. For those arrangements with recourse provisions, a recourse liability is recorded at fair value and remeasured quarterly to take into account activity during the period, as well as changes in the estimate for anticipated credit losses. Changes in the recourse liability’s value attributable to revised estimates of anticipated credit losses have been and are expected to be immaterial, as the underlying receivables are short-term and do not have a high credit risk profile. The valuation of the recourse liability falls within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had derecognized trade receivables under non-recourse facilities and facilities with recourse provisions of $24.2 million and $222.9 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had derecognized trade receivables under non-recourse facilities and facilities with recourse provisions of $21.4 million and $255.0 million, respectively. The carrying amount of the related recourse liability for the facilities with recourse provisions was $5.3 million and $3.3 million as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. This balance is recorded within accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. During the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company sold a total of $3.5 billion, $3.2 billion and $3.9 billion, respectively, of trade accounts receivables under these programs in exchange for cash for the face value of the sold receivables. The fees associated with the sales of such receivables are recorded in interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations and were $13.2 million, $16.3 million and $14.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The Company continues to service sold receivables, and the fair value of any resulting servicing liability is immaterial. Grower Advances Dole makes cash advances and materials advances to third-party growers for various production needs, including labor, fertilization, irrigation, pruning and harvesting costs, and additionally incurs other supply chain costs on behalf of third-party growers that are recorded as grower advance receivables. Some of these advances are secured by collateral owned by the growers. Grower advances are categorized as either working capital advances or term advances. Working capital advances are made to the growers during a normal seasonal growing cycle to support operational working capital needs. These advances are short-term in nature and are intended to be repaid with excess cash proceeds from the current crop harvest. Short-term grower loans and advances, whether secured or unsecured, are classified as grower advance receivables, net, in the consolidated balance sheets. Term advances are made to support longer-term grower investments. These advances are long-term in nature, are typically secured by long-term grower assets and usually involve a long-term supply agreement for the marketing of fruit. These advances typically have structured repayment terms which are payable over the term of the advance or supply agreement with excess cash proceeds from the crop harvest, after payment of any outstanding working capital advances. The term of supply agreements and term advances is generally to ten years. The current portion of term advances is classified as grower advance receivables, net, and the non-current portion of term advances is classified as other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Both working capital advances and term advances may bear interest. Accrued interest on these arrangements has not historically been significant to the financial statements. The following table summarizes growers advances as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 based on whether the advances are secured or unsecured:
Of the $159.7 million and $125.8 million of net advances to growers and suppliers as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $9.3 million and $12.6 million was considered past due, respectively. A rollforward of the allowance for expected credit losses related to grower advances for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was as follows:
Other Receivables Other receivables, net, are recognized at net realizable value, which reflects the net amount expected to be collected. Current and non-current balances of other receivables are included in other receivables, net, and other assets, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheets. Other receivables primarily comprise VAT receivables, hedging receivables, other receivables from government and tax authorities and non-trade receivables from customers, suppliers and other third parties. Based on the nature of these agreements, the timing of collection is dependent on many factors, including government legislation and the timing of settlement of the contract or arrangement. Other receivables as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were $143.9 million and $143.6 million, net of allowances for credit losses of $21.7 million and $19.8 million, respectively. Of these amounts outstanding, VAT receivables represent $44.3 million and $39.6 million, net of allowances of $13.8 million and $13.9 million, respectively. VAT receivables are primarily related to purchases by production units and are refunded by certain taxing authorities. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the allowance related to non-trade receivables from customers, suppliers and other third parties

The following table provides details of the principal components of our deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024:
As of December 31, 2025, Dole had approximately $1.1 billion of operating loss carryforwards expiring as follows:
As of December 31, 2025, U.S. state tax credit carryforwards of $0.3 million include $0.3 million which will expire between 2026 and 2029. In addition, Dole has $2.1 million of U.S. federal foreign tax credit carryforwards. If unused, $0.7 million will expire in 2029, $0.3 million will expire in 2032, $0.1 million will expire in 2033, $0.4 million will expire in 2034 and $0.6 million will expire in 2035. The following table presents the movement in the valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:
The valuation allowance increased by $24.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2025 and decreased by $11.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2024, and $15.5 million in the year ended year ended December 31, 2023. The 2025 increase includes a net increase of $19.9 million recognized in the consolidated statements of operations, a $4.1 million increase from discontinued operations and $0.7 million increase of exchange rate translation adjustments. Dole is an Irish holding company that operates a significant number of foreign subsidiaries. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had not recognized a deferred tax liability on approximately $719.7 million of undistributed earnings for certain foreign subsidiaries, because these earnings are intended to be indefinitely reinvested. If such earnings were distributed, some countries may impose additional taxes. The unrecognized deferred tax liability (the amount payable if distributed) is approximately $75.1 million. Dole recognizes deferred tax assets on potential foreign tax credits expected to be generated by the repatriation of undistributed earnings only when the repatriation has occurred or is apparent to occur in the foreseeable future. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits (excluding interest and penalties) is as follows:
The total of unrecognized tax benefits was $6.9 million and $10.2 million as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. If recognized, it is estimated that Dole’s effective tax rate would be affected by additional income tax benefit of $6.9 million and $8.9 million as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to income taxes within income tax expense in the income statement. Dole recognized a benefit of $2.4 million for interest and penalties for the year ended December 31, 2025, an expense of $1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 and a benefit of $0.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2023. A liability was recognized for accrued interest and penalties of $3.1 million and $5.5 million as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The tax years 2021 to 2024 remain subject to examination by taxing authorities in the United States. The tax years 2020 to 2024 remain subject to examination by taxing authorities in the U.K. The tax years 2020 to 2024 remain subject to examination by taxing authorities in Ireland, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Germany and Guatemala.

| ASSETS HELD-FOR-SALE AND ACTIVELY MARKETED PROPERTY | ASSETS HELD FOR SALE AND ACTIVELY MARKETED PROPERTY Dole continuously reviews its assets in order to identify those assets that do not meet Dole’s future strategic direction or internal economic return criteria. As a result of this review, Dole has identified and is in the process of selling certain assets which are classified as either held for sale or actively marketed property. The assets that have been identified are available for sale in their present condition and an active program is underway to sell the assets or properties. For property classified as held for sale, their sale is anticipated to occur during the ensuing year, while the timing of the sale of property specifically classified as actively marketed is uncertain.

| GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS | NOTE 13 — GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS The gross balance of goodwill was $499.6 million, with accumulated impairment losses of $49.3 million, as of December 31, 2025 and $477.4 million, with accumulated impairment losses of $47.8 million, as of December 31, 2024. A rollforward of goodwill by reportable segment for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, was as follows:
Details of Dole’s intangible assets as of December 31, 2025 were as follows:
Details of Dole’s intangible assets as of December 31, 2024 were as follows:
A rollforward of intangible assets, excluding goodwill, for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was as follows:
Amortization expense for definite-lived intangible assets was $7.1 million, $7.6 million and $10.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, the estimated amortization expense associated with Dole’s intangible assets for each of the next five fiscal years was as follows:
Dole evaluates goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually during the fourth quarter, or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate that an impairment may exist. During fiscal year 2025, the Company performed a quantitative assessment of goodwill and the DOLE® brand indefinite-lived intangible asset in conjunction with the annual impairment assessment. As of the October 1, 2025 testing date, one of Dole’s reporting units with allocated goodwill was considered at risk of future impairment. The fair value of the Fresh Fruit reporting unit was less than 1% and above its carrying amounts.The fair value of the Diversified Fresh Produce – EMEA and Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas & ROW reporting units and the DOLE® brand were sufficiently above their carrying amounts. Unfavorable changes to key assumptions, market conditions, and macroeconomic circumstances could result in future impairment. On December 13, 2025, the Company entered into the Port Sale Transaction and the planned disposal of the Ecuadorian Port Business disposal group met the criteria for held for sale classification as of December 31, 2025. As a result of the reclassification, $16.0 million of goodwill was allocated to the Ecuadorian Port Business disposal group and was included within assets held for sale. The Company assessed qualitative factors to determine whether it was more likely than not that the fair value of the remaining Fresh Fruit reporting unit was less than its carrying value as of December 31, 2025. Qualitative factors considered included market conditions, overall financial performance and other relevant events and factors. Based on the qualitative impairment test performed as of December 31, 2025, the Company determined that there was no impairment to the goodwill allocated to the Fresh Fruit reporting unit. On February 27, 2024, Dole entered into a definitive agreement with PTF Holdings to which Dole agreed to sell its 65.0% stake in the Progressive Produce business to PTF Holdings for gross proceeds of $120.3 million in cash. On March 13, 2024, Dole completed the Progressive Transaction, and the Company concluded that the Progressive Transaction was a triggering event for the Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas & ROW reporting unit. As a result of the sale, $36.0 million of goodwill was allocated to the Progressive Produce business and was included within the carrying amount of the net assets sold. To determine the fair value of the remaining Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas & ROW reporting unit as of March 31, 2024, the Company utilized the income approach to estimate the reporting unit’s projected long-term performance. Level 3 inputs were utilized within the quantitative analysis. Based on the results of the analysis, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $36.7 million in March 2024. There was no impairment of goodwill or intangible assets recorded for the years ended December 31, 2023.

| DEBT | DEBT Short-term borrowings, bank overdrafts and long-term debt consisted of the following:
Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility On May 1, 2025, the Company entered into the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which includes: 1) a multicurrency five-year senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Corporate Revolving Credit Facility”) that provides for borrowings up to $600.0 million; 2) a new five-year U.S. dollar senior secured term loan A facility (“New Term Loan A”) of $250.0 million; and 3) a seven-year U.S. dollar senior secured Farm Credit term loan facility (“Farm Credit Term Loan”) of $350.0 million (collectively, the “New Senior Secured Facilities”). The proceeds of the Corporate Revolving Credit Facility and New Term Loan A and Farm Credit facilities (“Term Loan Facilities”) were used to refinance all outstanding amounts under the Credit Agreement immediately prior to giving effect to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Refinancing”), including repayment of its previous Corporate Revolving Credit Facility of $175.9 million and previous Term Loan Facilities of $702.3 million and payment of fees and expenses in connection therewith. The Corporate Revolving Credit Facility and New Term Loan A have expiration dates of May 1, 2030. The Farm Credit Term Loan has an expiration date of May 1, 2032. Principal payments of the New Term Loan A and Farm Credit Term Loan are due quarterly based on the aggregate principal amount as of the closing date of the Amended and restated Credit Agreement, adjusted for principal repayments, multiplied by 0.625% and 0.25%, respectively, until maturity. Interest under the Corporate Revolving Credit Facility and New Term Loan A is payable, at the option of Dole, either at (i) SOFR, or the respective benchmark rate depending on the currency of the loan, plus 1.00% to 2.25%, with a benchmark floor of 0.00% or (ii) a base rate plus 0.00% to 1.25%, in each case, to be determined based on the Company’s total net leverage ratio. Interest under the Farm Credit Term Loan is payable at SOFR plus 1.75% to 2.75%, to be determined based on the Company’s total net leverage ratio. As discussed in Note 17 “Derivative Financial Instruments”, the Company enters into interest rate swap arrangements to fix a portion of the Credit Agreement’s variable rate debt to fixed rate debt. As a result of the Refinancing, the Company recognized a net expense of $3.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2025, which is included in other (expense) income, net, in the consolidated statements of operations. The components of the $3.2 million net expense were a $2.9 million write-off of previously capitalized fees and $1.3 million of new third-party fees, net of a $1.0 million unrealized gain upon hedge de-designation of certain interest rate swaps. As a result of the Refinancing, the Company capitalized new lender and third-party fees of approximately $5.3 million. As of December 31, 2025, amounts outstanding under Term Loan facilities were $595.1 million, in the aggregate, and borrowings under the Corporate Revolving Credit Facility were $67.8 million. After taking into account $4.4 million of related outstanding letters of credit, Dole had $527.8 million available for cash borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility as of December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2024, amounts outstanding under the previous Term Loan Facilities were $703.7 million, in the aggregate, and borrowings under the Corporate Revolving Credit Facility were $19.0 million. After taking into account $5.8 million of related outstanding letters of credit, Dole had $575.2 million available for cash borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility as of December 31, 2024. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the Company’s material U.S. assets of wholly owned subsidiaries, certain European assets and by the equity interests of substantially all Dole subsidiaries located in the U.S. and certain subsidiaries located in Europe. Vessel Financing Loans On December 11, 2015, Dole entered into three secured loan agreements (“first vessel facility”) of up to $111.0 million, in the aggregate, to finance a portion of the acquisition costs of three new vessels. The first vessel facility consists of three tranches, each tied to a specific vessel, which allowed the Company to borrow up to 70%, or $37.0 million, of the contract cost of each vessel, collateralized by the completed vessel. Principal and interest payments are due quarterly in arrears for 48 consecutive installments. The first vessel facility bears interest at a rate per annum equal to SOFR plus a spread adjustment that varies from 0.11% to 0.72%, depending on the tenor of the borrowing, plus 2.00% to 3.25% and will mature on May 18, 2028. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Dole’s borrowings under the first vessel facility were $20.9 million and $30.1 million, respectively. On October 30, 2020, Dole entered into two additional secured loan agreements (“second vessel facility”) of $49.1 million, in the aggregate, to finance a portion of the acquisition costs of two new vessels, which were delivered in 2021. Each agreement was tied to a specific vessel which allowed Dole to borrow 60%, or $24.5 million, of the contract cost of each vessel, collateralized by the completed vessel. On January 14, 2021 and April 7, 2021, the first and second loans were funded for $24.5 million each and mature on January 14, 2030 and April 7, 2030, respectively. The second vessel facility bears interest at a rate per annum equal to SOFR plus a spread adjustment of 0.10%, plus 3.25% and principal and interest payments are due semi-annually in arrears for 18 consecutive installments. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Dole’s borrowings under the second vessel facility were $24.5 million and $30.0 million, respectively. These facilities were repaid in full subsequent to year end. See Note 25 “Subsequent Events” for further details. Other Financing Arrangements Dole’s other financing arrangements consist of a number of loan agreements entered into to finance other capital expenditures and working capital requirements. On October 7, 2024, certain subsidiaries located in Honduras entered into a secured financing arrangement of $38.5 million in the aggregate. The arrangement provide for 10 year loans with principle and interest payments due monthly in arrears. The facilities bear interest at a fixed rate per annum equal to 8.90% for the first year, and a variable rate of SOFR plus 3.50% thereafter, with a floor rate of 8.00% per annum. The arrangements will mature on September 30, 2034. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 borrowings under the facility were $34.0 million and $37.9 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had $20.5 million and $26.3 million, respectively, of remaining other financing arrangements, none of which are individually significant. Other Credit Facilities In addition to amounts available under the Corporate Revolving Credit Facility, Dole’s subsidiaries had other lines of credit and bank overdraft facilities at various local banks of $313.0 million, of which $243.8 million was available for use as of December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2024, there were lines of credit of $277.3 million, of which $228.5 million was available for use. These lines are primarily used to fund seasonal working capital requirements, short-term borrowings and bank guarantees. They consist of both secured and unsecured facilities, committed and uncommitted, and some are guaranteed by the Company and certain subsidiaries. The majority of Dole’s other lines of credit extend indefinitely but may be cancelled at any time by Dole or the banks, and if cancelled, any outstanding amounts would be due on demand. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, total bank overdrafts were $9.6 million and $11.4 million, respectively, and other amounts outstanding under these lines were $66.6 million and $46.2 million, respectively. Finance Lease Obligations As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Dole’s finance lease obligations of $44.9 million and $74.0 million, respectively, primarily relate to machinery and equipment and containers, which continue through 2033. Covenants and Restrictions The credit facilities require Dole to maintain compliance with a maximum leverage ratio of 4.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of the company. As of December 31, 2025, Dole was in compliance with all applicable covenants. A breach of a covenant or other provision in any debt instrument governing Dole’s current or future indebtedness could result in a default under that instrument and, due to customary cross-default and cross-acceleration provisions, could result in a default under Dole’s other debt instruments. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the credit facilities or other debt instruments, the lenders or holders of such debt could elect to declare all amounts outstanding to be immediately due and payable and terminate all commitments to extend further credit. If Dole were unable to repay those amounts, the lenders could proceed against the collateral granted to them, if any, to secure the indebtedness. If the lenders under Dole’s indebtedness were to accelerate the payment of the indebtedness, Dole cannot give assurance that its assets would be sufficiently liquid to repay in full its outstanding indebtedness on an accelerated basis. Debt Discounts and Debt Issuance Costs Debt discounts and issuance costs are amortized over the term of the debt agreement using the effective interest method. Debt discounts and issuance costs are presented as a direct reduction of debt in the consolidated balance sheets, except for those issuance costs related to revolving credit facilities and line-of-credit arrangements which are recorded as an other current asset or other asset in the consolidated balance sheets, depending on the maturity date. The amortization expense related to Dole’s deferred debt discounts and issuance costs is recorded as interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations. For the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, amortization expense related to deferred debt discounts and issuance costs was $4.1 million, $6.1 million and $5.8 million, respectively. Maturities of Current and Long-Term Debt Stated maturities with respect to current and long-term debt, excluding finance lease obligations, as of December 31, 2025 were as follows:
For maturities of finance lease obligations, refer to Note 16 “Leases”.

| EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS | NOTE 15 — EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS Dole sponsors a number of defined benefit pension plans covering certain employees worldwide. Benefits under these plans are generally based on each employee’s eligible compensation and years of service, except for certain plans covering union employees, which are based on negotiated benefits. In addition to pension plans, Dole also has OPRB plans that provide certain health care and life insurance benefits for eligible retired employees. The Company sponsors six funded defined benefit pension plans including a U.S. qualified plan and five plans outside of the U.S., two of which are based in Ireland, two are based in the U.K., and one is based in Canada. The Company also sponsors unfunded international pension plans (primarily in Latin America) and OPRB plans. The Company continues a strategy to de-risk its exposure to defined benefit schemes. Substantially all U.S. pension benefits were frozen on December 31, 2001. The plans in Ireland are closed to new entrants, and salaries for defined benefit purposes have been capped, with any salary increases above the cap eligible on a defined contribution basis since 2009. Starting in 2017, Enhanced Transfer Value (“ETV”) programs and buy-in contracts have been initiated for certain members of the Irish plans. Under ETV programs, accumulated accrued benefits for affected members were transferred from the Irish Plans which eliminated future accrual of benefits and entitled the members to receive a transfer value above the statutory minimum amount. Bulk annuity policies (buy-in contracts) were purchased from insurers that provide payments back to the pension scheme to cover the benefits for the affected members. Under the buy-in contracts, the responsibility to pay the pension obligations still rests with the plan and the obligation is still recorded by the Company. Both of the U.K. schemes are closed to new entrants and to new accruals. Dole’s SERP is a non-qualified benefit and executive compensation plan, and Dole’s ESP plan is a non-qualified deferred compensation plan. Both are funded through investments in Rabbi Trusts. See Note 18 “Fair Value Measurements” for additional detail on the measurement of these assets. Following a change of control event, Dole is obligated, under the provisions of the respective trust agreements, to contribute an amount sufficient to meet the ESP obligation for benefits earned through the change in control year and the ongoing value of the projected benefit obligation of the SERP. The assets held in the Rabbi Trusts are subject to the claims of Dole’s general unsecured creditors and are not included in plan assets. As of December 31, 2025, $6.4 million of the assets was classified as short-term and included in short-term investments in the consolidated balance sheets, and $13.8 million was classified as long-term and included in long-term investments in the consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2024, $6.0 million was classified as short-term and $14.6 million was classified as long-term. Obligations and Funded Status The funded status of Dole’s defined benefit pension plans was as follows:
1 Includes $4.6 million of benefit obligation related to the Port Sale Transaction, which has been classified as liabilities held for sale in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025. Amounts included within accumulated other comprehensive loss (income), before tax, were as follows:

The Company classifies the non-service components of net periodic pension cost (income) within other (expense) income, net, in the consolidated statements of operations. Non-service components include interest costs, expected return on plan assets, amortization of net (gain) loss and prior service benefit and other curtailment, settlement or termination costs. Assumptions Weighted average assumptions used to determine benefit obligations were as follows:
Weighted average assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit cost were as follows:
International plan discount rates and assumed rates of increase in future compensation differ from the assumptions used for U.S. plans due to differences in the local economic conditions in the countries in which the international plans are based. No rate of compensation increase is shown for U.S. plans, because benefits under the U.S. plans are frozen, except for a group of employees whose benefits are negotiated under collective bargaining agreements. The assumption for the rate of compensation increase for these employees reflects the rate negotiated in those bargaining agreements. The accumulated pension benefit obligation for Dole’s OPRB plans was determined using the following assumed annual rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered health care benefits:
Plan Assets The following is the target asset mix for Dole’s pension plans, which management believes provides the optimal trade-off of diversification and long-term asset growth:
Dole’s pension plan weighted average asset allocation by asset category was as follows:1
1 Certain investments are in funds measured at net asset value as presented in the fair value table below. The plans’ asset allocation includes a mix of fixed income and other investments designed to reduce volatility and equity investments designed to maintain funding ratios and long-term financial health of the plan. The equity investments are diversified across U.S. and international stocks as well as growth, value and small and large capitalization. Dole employs a total return investment approach whereby a mix of fixed income, equity and other investments is used to maximize the long-term return of plan assets with a prudent level of risk. The objectives of this strategy are to achieve full funding of the accumulated benefit obligation and to achieve investment experience over time that will minimize pension expense volatility and minimize Dole’s contributions required to maintain full funding status. Risk tolerance is established through careful consideration of plan liabilities, plan funded status and corporate financial condition. Investment risk is measured and monitored on an ongoing basis through annual liability measurements, periodic asset/liability studies and quarterly investment portfolio reviews. Dole determines the expected return on pension plan assets based on an expectation of average annual returns over an extended period of years. Dole also considers the weighted-average historical rate of returns on investments with similar characteristics to those in which Dole’s pension assets are invested. Fair Value of Retirement Plan Assets Dole estimates the fair value of its retirement plan assets based on current quoted market prices. In instances where quoted market prices are not readily available, the fair value of the investments is estimated by the trustee. In obtaining such data from the trustee, Dole has evaluated the methodologies used to develop the estimate of fair value in order to assess whether such valuations are representative of fair value, including net asset value. Fair values for Level 1 investments are determined based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities. For Level 2 investments, the fair values are determined using observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but corroborated by market data. There were no identified Level 3 investments as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The carrying value and estimated fair values of Dole’s retirement plan assets are summarized below:
Plan Contributions and Estimated Future Benefit Payments During the year ended December 31, 2025, Dole did not make any contributions to its qualified U.S. pension plan. Future contributions to the U.S. pension plan in excess of the minimum funding requirement are voluntary and may change depending on Dole’s operating performance or at management’s discretion. Contributions and benefits paid directly by Dole related to its other U.S. and international pension and OPRB plans totaled $15.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2025. Dole expects to make $2.8 million of contributions and $20.3 million of direct benefit payments related to its pension and OPRB plans in fiscal year 2026. The following table presents estimated future benefit payments:
Defined Contribution Plans and Other Arrangements Dole offers defined contribution plans to eligible employees. Such employees may defer a percentage of their annual compensation in accordance with plan guidelines. Some of these plans provide for a company match that is subject to a maximum contribution as defined by the plan. Dole’s contributions to its defined contribution plans totaled $17.1 million, $19.0 million and $23.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Dole is also party to industry-wide collective bargaining agreements that provide pension benefits. Total contributions to multi-employer defined benefit plans for eligible participants were not material for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023. Dole has collective bargaining agreements with various unions covering approximately 24.8% of Dole’s workforce. Of these unionized employees, 12.0% are covered under a collective bargaining agreement that will expire within one year, and the remaining 88.0% are covered under collective bargaining agreements expiring beyond the upcoming year. These agreements are subject to periodic negotiation and renewal. Failure to renew any of these collective bargaining agreements may result in a strike or work stoppage; however, management does not expect that the outcome of these negotiations and renewals will have a material adverse impact on Dole’s financial condition or results of operations.

| DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS | NOTE 17 — DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Dole is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, bunker fuel price fluctuations and interest rate changes in the normal course of its business. As part of its risk management strategy, Dole uses derivative instruments to hedge some of these exposures. Dole’s objective is to offset gains and losses resulting from these exposures with losses and gains from the derivative contracts used to hedge them, thereby reducing the volatility of earnings. Dole does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The types of derivative instruments utilized by Dole are described below: Foreign currency hedges: Dole enters into foreign currency exchange forward and option contracts to hedge exposure to changes in certain foreign currency exchange rates. Dole enters into fair value hedges to hedge foreign currency exposure of non-functional currency assets and liabilities and cash flow hedges to hedge foreign currency exposure of forecasted revenue, cost of sales and operating expenses. Interest rate swaps: Dole enters into interest rate swaps to mitigate a significant portion of the interest rate risk associated with its variable-rate debt. The interest rate swaps pay a fixed rate of interest at rates between 0.77% and 3.31%, with the receiving rates variable based on SOFR, which was 3.69% as of December 31, 2025. All interest rate swap arrangements are classified within the consolidated balance sheets based on ultimate maturity date of the arrangement. Refer to Note 14 “Debt” for further information on the Company’s variable debt. As a result of the Refinancing described in Note 14 “Debt”, there was a de-designation of certain interest rate swaps in which the forecasted interest payments are no longer probable, resulting in a de-designation gain of $1.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2025, which was recorded in other (expense), income net. Bunker fuel contracts: Dole incurs significant fuel costs from shipping products from sourcing locations to end customer markets. As a result, Dole is exposed to commodity and fuel cost risks and enters into bunker fuel contracts to hedge the risk of unfavorable fuel prices. Hedge Accounting Election The Company performs an analysis of its hedging portfolio at inception and on a quarterly basis. The Company uses the following criteria in evaluating derivative instruments for hedge accounting: 1.Hedged risk is eligible 2.Hedged item or transaction is eligible 3.Hedging instrument is eligible 4.Hedging relationship is highly effective 5.Designation and documentation requirements are met Dole designates the interest rate swaps and certain foreign currency cash flow hedges for hedge accounting and records the changes in fair value of these instruments in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The changes in fair value of foreign currency fair value hedges, non-designated cash flow hedges and bunker fuel hedges are recorded in earnings. Notional Amounts of Derivative Instruments Dole had the following derivative instruments outstanding as of December 31, 2025:
Quantitative Disclosures Derivatives are presented gross in the consolidated balance sheets. The following table presents the balance sheet location and fair value of the derivative instruments by type:
Refer to Note 18 “Fair Value Measurements” for the presentation of fair value instruments within the consolidated balance sheets, which includes derivative financial instruments. The following tables represent Dole’s pre-tax realized and unrealized derivative gains (losses) and respective location in the financial statements for all derivative instruments for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:
As of December 31, 2025, the Company expects approximately $4.1 million of deferred net gains from cash flow hedges to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings over the next 12 months. Of the $4.1 million of net deferred gains, $6.7 million relates to deferred gains on interest rate swap contracts and is expected to offset future interest expense on the New Senior Secured Facilities, and $2.6 million relates to net deferred losses on cash flow hedges and is expected to offset future operational net gains on foreign currency exchange rates. Refer to Note 21 “Stockholders’ Equity” for details on reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

| FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | NOTE 18 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The inputs used to measure fair value are based on a hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used in valuation techniques. These levels, in order of highest to lowest priority, are described below: Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but corroborated by market data. Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data. Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis The following tables present the fair values of the Company’s assets and liabilities remeasured at fair value as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
The assets and liabilities that are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis are derivative instruments, contingent consideration and Rabbi Trust investments. The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments are determined using Level 2 inputs, which are defined as “observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but corroborated by market data.” The fair values of the foreign currency forward contracts, the interest rate swaps and bunker fuel hedges were estimated using internal discounted cash flow calculations based upon forward foreign currency exchange rates, bunker fuel futures, interest rate yield curves or quotes obtained from brokers for contracts with similar terms, less any credit valuation adjustments based on Dole’s own credit risk and any counterparties' credit risk. Dole sponsors a non-qualified deferred compensation plan and a frozen non-qualified supplemental defined benefit plan for executives. The plans are funded through investments in Rabbi Trusts. Securities are recorded at fair value with realized and unrealized holding gains or losses included in earnings. As of December 31, 2025, securities totaled $20.2 million, of which $6.4 million was classified as short-term and included in short-term investments in the consolidated balance sheets, and $13.8 million was classified as long-term and included in long-term investments in the consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2024, securities totaled $20.6 million, of which $6.0 million was classified as short-term and $14.6 million was classified as long-term. Dole estimates the fair value of its Rabbi Trust investments using prices provided by its custodian, which are based on various third-party pricing services or valuation models developed by the underlying fund managers. The Rabbi Trust investments are held by the custodian in various Master Trust Units (“MTUs”), where the fair value is derived from the individual investment components. Each investment within the MTU is individually valued, after considering gains, losses, contributions and distributions, and the collective value of the MTU represents the total fair value. Dole has evaluated the methodologies used by the custodian to develop the estimate of fair value and assessed whether such valuations are representative of fair value, including net asset value. Dole has determined the valuations to be Level 3 inputs, because they are based upon significant unobservable inputs. The table below sets forth a summary of changes in the fair value of the Level 3 Rabbi Trust investments for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024:
* Net amount comprised realized gains of $0.6 million and unrealized gains of $1.2 million recorded in other (expense) income, net, in the consolidated statements of operations. The carrying value of contingent consideration in the consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value based on the present value of the expected payments, discounted using a risk-adjusted rate. The expected payments are determined by forecasting the acquiree's earnings over the applicable period. Dole has determined the valuations are Level 3 inputs, because they are based upon significant unobservable inputs. The table below sets forth a summary of changes in the fair value of the Level 3 contingent consideration for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024:
Fair Value of Financial Instruments In estimating the Company’s fair value disclosures for financial instruments, Dole used the following methods and assumptions: Cash and cash equivalents: These items have carrying values reported in the consolidated balance sheets that approximate fair value due to their liquid nature, and they are classified as Level 1. Short-term trade and grower receivables: These items have carrying values reported in the consolidated balance sheets that are net of allowances, and they are classified as Level 2. Trade payables: These items have carrying values reported in the consolidated balance sheets that approximate fair value, and they are classified as Level 2. Notes receivable and notes payable: These items have carrying values reported in the consolidated balance sheets that approximate fair value, and they are classified as Level 2. Long-term grower receivables: These items have carrying values reported in the consolidated balance sheets that are net of allowances, and they are classified as Level 2. Finance and operating leases: The carrying value of finance lease obligations reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value based on current interest rates, which contain an element of default risk. The fair value of finance lease obligations is estimated using Level 2 inputs based on quoted prices for those or similar instruments. For operating leases, Dole uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount leases payments to present value, when available. However, most leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company’s incremental borrowing rate is used to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. Interest-bearing loans and borrowings: The carrying value of interest-bearing loans and borrowings reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value. As these instruments are illiquid, have little observable data with which to determine fair value, and have pricing that is affected by a variety of non-financial factors, they are classified as Level 3. Credit Risk The counterparties to the foreign currency exchange contracts consist of a number of major international financial institutions. Dole has established counterparty guidelines and regularly monitors its positions and the financial strength of these institutions. While counterparties to hedging contracts expose Dole to credit-related losses in the event of a counterparty’s non-performance, the risk would be limited to the unrealized gains on such affected contracts. Dole does not anticipate any such losses.

| Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
| COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | NOTE 19 — CONTINGENCIES Guarantees and Other Contingencies Dole provides guarantees for obligations of subsidiaries to third parties directly and indirectly through letters of credit from its revolving credit facilities, guarantees issued by major banking institutions and surety bonds issued by insurance companies. These letters of credit, bank guarantees and surety bonds are required by certain regulatory authorities, suppliers and other operating agreements and generally have contract terms of to twenty years, often with an option to renew. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, total letters of credit, bank guarantees and surety bonds outstanding under these arrangements were $67.9 million and $55.0 million, respectively, which represents the maximum potential future payments that Dole could be required to make. Any potential payments under these guarantees are not significant as of December 31, 2025. Additionally, the Company guarantees certain bank borrowings and other obligations of certain equity method investees. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, total guarantees under these arrangements were $7.8 million and $4.9 million, respectively, which represents the maximum potential future payments that Dole could be required to make. Each of the following Irish registered subsidiaries of the Company may avail of the exemption from filing its statutory financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 as permitted by Section 357 of the Companies Act 2014. If any of these Irish registered subsidiaries of the Company elects to avail of this exemption, there will be in force an irrevocable guarantee from the Company in respect of all commitments entered into by such wholly-owned subsidiary, including amounts shown as liabilities (within the meaning of Section 357 (1) (b) of the Companies Act 2014) in such wholly-owned subsidiary’s statutory financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025: •Dole Management Services Limited •Finantic Limited •Total Produce International Holdings Limited •Dole Ireland Limited •Total Produce Limited •Dole Receivables DAC Hawaii Spillway In February of 2020, the State of Hawaii and Department of Land and Natural Resources provided notice to Dole of a deficiency in the spillway and embankment stability of a Company-owned reservoir that requires mediation by 2025. Dole contracted a third party to perform an improvement study which resulted in an estimate of costs to modify the spillway of approximately $20.0 million. On July 5, 2023, Hawaii Senate Bill 833 was signed into law by the Governor of Hawaii, pursuant to which the Office of the Governor will negotiate the acquisition of Dole’s interests in the reservoir and associated irrigation system. Discussions with the State of Hawaii are ongoing. The bill also appropriates funds for the State to repair and maintain the irrigation system and the associated spillway. The Company does not deem a resulting loss from the contingency associated with the costs to modify the spillway to be probable and, thus, has not recognized a liability in the consolidated balance sheets. Legal Contingencies Dole is involved from time to time in claims and legal actions incidental to its operations, both as plaintiff and defendant. Legal fees are expensed as incurred or expected to be incurred when the resulting loss from legal matters related to underlying events that have already occurred is probable and estimable. Dole has established what management currently believes to be adequate accruals for pending legal matters. These accruals are established as part of an ongoing worldwide assessment of claims and legal actions that takes into consideration such items as changes in the pending case load (including resolved and new matters), opinions of legal counsel, individual developments in court proceedings, changes in the law, changes in business focus, changes in the litigation environment, changes in opponent strategy and tactics, new developments as a result of ongoing discovery and past experience in defending and settling similar claims. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the claims or actions to which Dole is a party are not expected to have a material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, on Dole’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. DBCP Cases: Dole Food Company, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries are involved in lawsuits pending in the U.S. and in foreign countries alleging injury because of exposure to the agricultural chemical DBCP (1,2- dibromo-3-chloropropane) or seeking enforcement of Nicaraguan judgments related to DBCP. These lawsuits are in various stages of proceedings, although most are inactive. In addition, there are multiple labor cases pending in Costa Rica under that country’s national insurance program. Currently, claimed damages in DBCP cases worldwide total approximately $17.8 billion, with lawsuits in Nicaragua representing almost all of this amount. 24 of the cases in Nicaragua have resulted in judgments, although not all of the individual judgment holders are seeking recovery. The Company believes that none of the Nicaraguan judgments that remain will be enforceable against any Dole entity in the U.S. or in any other country. As to all the DBCP matters, Dole has denied liability and asserted substantial defenses. The Company believes there is no reliable scientific basis for alleged injuries from the agricultural field application of DBCP. Although no assurance can be given concerning the outcome of the DBCP cases, in the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel and based on experience defending and resolving DBCP claims, neither the pending lawsuits and claims nor their resolution are expected to have a material adverse effect on Dole’s financial position or results of operations, because the probable loss is not material. Former Shell Site: Beginning in 2009, Shell Oil Company and Dole Food Company, Inc. were sued in several cases filed in Los Angeles Superior Court by the City of Carson and persons claiming to be current or former residents in the area of a housing development built in the 1960’s by a predecessor of what is now a Dole subsidiary, Barclay Hollander Corporation (“BHC”), on land that had been owned and used by Shell as a crude oil storage facility for 40 years prior to the housing development. The homeowner and City of Carson complaints have been settled and the litigation has been dismissed. On May 6, 2013, Shell filed a complaint against Dole Food Company, Inc. (which was later voluntarily dismissed), BHC and Lomita Development Company (“Lomita”), seeking indemnity for the costs associated with the lawsuits discussed above (approximately $90.0 million plus attorney fees) and for the cleanup discussed below (approximately $310.0 million). Shell’s indemnification claims were based on an early entry side agreement between Shell and an entity related to BHC and on claims based in equity. The trial court dismissed Shell’s contract-based claims and eliminated Shell’s demands for indemnification related to the homeowner and City of Carson cases. Shell’s equitable claims related to the cleanup costs were tried and, on November 9, 2022, the jury delivered a verdict deciding that Shell properly incurred and will incur a total of $266.6 million in cleanup costs, and that BHC should bear 50.0% of those costs, or $133.3 million. BHC has filed an appeal. In June 2023, the trial court granted Shell’s motion to add Dole Food Company, Inc. to the BHC judgment as an alter ego of BHC and ordered Shell to reimburse BHC approximately $26.7 million in attorney’s fees, which serves as an offset to the BHC judgment amount. Dole Food Company, Inc., has appealed the alter ego ruling and secured a bond sufficient to stay enforcement of the judgment. Shell has appealed the award of the attorney’s fees. The California Regional Water Quality Control Board (“Water Board”) is supervising the cleanup on the former Shell site. On March 11, 2011, the Water Board issued a Cleanup and Abatement Order (“CAO”) naming Shell as the Discharger and a Responsible Party and ordering Shell to assess, monitor and cleanup and abate the effects of contaminants discharged to soil and groundwater at the site. On April 30, 2015, the CAO was amended to also name BHC as a discharger. BHC appealed this CAO revision to the California State Water Resources Control Board, which appeal was denied by operation of law when the Water Board took no action. On September 30, 2015, BHC filed a writ petition in the Superior Court challenging the CAO on several grounds. The trial court denied BHC’s petition, which denial was subsequently upheld by the California Court of Appeals, thereby ending BHC’s challenge to the CAO revision naming BHC as a discharger. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the claims or actions related to the CAO are not expected to have a material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, on Dole’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows, because management believes the risk of loss is remote.

| STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY | NOTE 21 — STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY Common Stock As of December 31, 2025, the Company was authorized to issue 600.0 million total shares of capital stock, consisting of 300.0 million shares of common stock and 300.0 million shares of preferred stock. As of December 31, 2025, there were 95.2 million shares of common stock outstanding and no shares of preferred stock outstanding. A rollforward of share activity as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was as follows:
Stock-Based Compensation The Company’s primary stock-based compensation plan is the 2021 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (“the Plan”), under which to date, share options and two different types of RSUs have been issued. The purpose of the Plan is to benefit and advance the interests of Dole by attracting, retaining and motivating participants and to compensate participants for contributions to the success of the Company. Upon exercise of stock options or vesting of RSUs, new shares are issued from existing authorization. A total of 7.4 million shares of the Company’s common stock were initially reserved for issuance pursuant to the Omnibus Plan. Upon the exercise of any option or vesting of any RSU, the related award is cancelled to the extent of the number of shares exercised or vested, and that number of shares is no longer available under the Plan. If any part of the award terminates without delivery of the related shares, the extent of the award will then be available for future grant under the Plan. As of December 31, 2025, there were 5.4 million shares available for future grant under the Plan and 1.4 million shares available for future issue under awards granted. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company issued RSU awards under the Plan that vest over service periods ranging from to three years. The Company also issued RSU awards that vest over a three-year period subject to the achievement of specified market conditions, including stock price targets (“share hurdle awards”) and relative total shareholder return compared to a defined peer group (“relative total shareholder awards”). Compensation expense under these awards that include a market condition, including previously issued awards in prior years, is determined based on the grant date fair value of the award using a Monte Carlo simulation approach. Compensation expense for stock options is determined based on the grant date fair value of the award, calculated using the Black Scholes options-pricing model. Company stock options generally vest over a three year-service period and expire ten years from the date of grant. Forfeitures are estimated on the date of grant based on historical forfeiture rates, and compensation expense is adjusted based on actual forfeitures. For the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, stock-based compensation expense related to the Plan was $6.9 million, $8.0 million and $6.1 million, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense related to the Plan is recorded in selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. The following table summarizes the assumptions used for estimating the fair values of the stock options and RSUs with a market condition upon grant date:
1 Dividend yield assumption is not applicable for relative total shareholder awards and thus only applies to share hurdle awards. The volatility range and stock return correlation valuation assumptions for the total shareholder award peer group were 20.7% to 56.4% and 0.42 to 0.68, respectively. A rollforward of share-based compensation awards outstanding by number and weighted-average exercise price of stock options or weighted-average grant-date fair value of RSU’s and RSUs with a market condition for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was as follows:
The total unrecognized compensation cost related to the unvested awards as of December 31, 2025 was $8.1 million. The remaining unrecognized compensation cost as of December 31, 2025 will be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.9 years. Dividends Declared The following table summarizes dividends per share declared in the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:
The following table summarizes total dividends declared for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:
Dole’s ability to declare and pay dividends is subject to limitations contained in its various debt agreements. As of December 31, 2025, Dole had the ability to make dividend payments of $688.6 million before these limitations would come into effect. See Note 25 “Subsequent Events” for additional detail on dividends declared and paid. Share Repurchase Program On November 7, 2025, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized a share repurchase program (“Share Repurchase Program”) under which the Company may repurchase up to $100.0 million in the aggregate of its Ordinary shares with no set expiration date. Shares may be repurchased from time to time through open-market transactions or other methods. The timing and volume of repurchases will be at the discretion of the Company’s management and will be based on several factors including market conditions, available capital resources and alternative investment opportunities. The Share Repurchase Program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular number of shares and may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time at the Board’s discretion. No shares were repurchased under the Share Repurchase Program for the year ended December 31, 2025. See Note 25 “Subsequent Events” for additional detail on the Share Repurchase Program. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss Dole’s accumulated other comprehensive loss primarily consists of unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses, unrealized derivative gains and losses and pension and postretirement obligation adjustments. A rollforward of the changes in accumulated other comprehensive loss, disaggregated by component, was as follows for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
The following table includes details about gross (gains) losses reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss by component of accumulated other comprehensive loss:

| INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES | NOTE 22 — INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES As of December 31, 2025, Dole’s investments in unconsolidated affiliates were $142.1 million, of which $135.6 million represented equity method investments, and $6.5 million represented investments in which Dole does not have significant influence. As of December 31, 2024, Dole’s investments in unconsolidated affiliates were $129.3 million, of which $126.2 million represented equity method investments, and $3.1 million represented investments in which Dole does not have significant influence. There are no significant investees in which Dole holds 20.0% or more of their voting stock that are not accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Dole’s consolidated net income includes its proportionate share of the net income or loss of equity method investments in affiliates. When Dole records its proportionate share of net income, it increases equity method earnings in the consolidated statements of operations and the carrying value in that investment in the consolidated balance sheets. Conversely, when Dole records its proportionate share of a net loss, it decreases equity method earnings in the consolidated statements of operations and the carrying value in that investment in the consolidated balance sheets. Cash dividends received from investments in which Dole does not have significant influence are recorded in other (expense) income, net, and have historically not been significant. Investments in Unconsolidated affiliates A rollforward of the carrying amount of Dole’s investments in unconsolidated affiliates as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was as follows:
The Company’s investees recognized investee income tax expense of $7.0 million, $4.9 million and $5.8 million during the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively, related to equity method investments. These amounts are included within equity method earnings in the consolidated statements of operations. Impairment of equity method investment For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized aggregate impairment losses of $0.9 million, related to investments in Chile and the Netherlands. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $7.2 million on an investment in North America. Impairment losses for December 31, 2023 were not material. Disposal of equity method investees During the year ended December 31, 2025, Dole divested of a portion of ownership shares in an equity method investment located in the U.S. and recognized a gain in equity method earnings of $7.7 million ($6.9 million, net of income tax). The Company continues to hold ownership in the investment and will account for it as an investment in which the Company does not have significant influence. This disposal was part of a non-cash transaction whereby Dole effectively exchanged a portion of its ownership shares in this equity method investment for an additional shareholding in a non-wholly owned consolidated subsidiary in the U.S. During the year ended December 31, 2025, Dole also completed the sale of equity method investments in the Netherlands, recognizing an aggregate gain of $4.0 million. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company disposed of its 26% investment in South African company which had a carrying value of $0.5 million as of the disposal date. As a result of this disposal, the Company recognized a loss of $0.5 million. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company disposed of its 50% investment in a U.S. company, which had a carrying value of $1.1 million as of the disposal date. As a result of this disposal, the Company recognized a gain of $0.5 million. Summarized Financial Information - Equity Method Investments Summarized aggregated financial information for equity method investments for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 are as follows in the tables below.

| VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES | NOTE 23 — VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES Judgment is used when determining (i) whether an entity is a VIE; (ii) who are the variable interest holders; (iii) the elements and degree of control that each variable interest holder has; and (iv) ultimately which party is the primary beneficiary. Unconsolidated VIEs The VIEs in which Dole has variable interests but is not the primary beneficiary are not consolidated and are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The Company holds variable interests in a fresh produce business, El Parque, which is considered a VIE in which Dole is not the primary beneficiary. On December 16, 2016, the Company acquired shares in El Parque. As of December 31, 2025, Dole has 50.000% of the series A shares and 49.995% of the series B shares in El Parque, with remaining series A shares held by Inversiones Dona Isidora Limitada (“IDI”) and remaining series B shares held by individual investors. The El Parque Board of Directors comprises four members, two from Dole and two from IDI. Dole and IDI both have equal management representation on the board and equity participation, as only series A shares have voting rights. Further, all significant activities of El Parque are managed by the unanimous consent of the board. Therefore, Dole does not meet the power criteria required to be considered the primary beneficiary nor holds a controlling financial interest in El Parque. During the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company did not provide any financial support to or guarantees in respect of debt issued by El Parque. Dole’s maximum exposure to loss represents the amount that would be absorbed by the Company in the event that all assets held in El Parque had no value. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Dole’s maximum exposure to loss in El Parque was equivalent to the carrying value of its investment in the entity of $14.3 million and $11.8 million, respectively. Consolidated VIEs Dole consolidates the results of one VIE, EurobananCanarias S.A. (“EBC”), a Canary Islands fruit produce business, as Dole holds 50.0% of its shares and is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. Since EBC’s incorporation in 1993, Dole has had an economic interest of 50.0% and a power to appoint its managing director, who influences all decisions related to operations. Dole’s economic interest is not equal to the Company’s voting interest (decision making right for all relevant activities); thus, the conditions of Dole being the primary beneficiary are met, and EBC is consolidated. Dole has not provided any financial or other support to EBC during the periods presented within the consolidated financial statements.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies) |
12 Months Ended |
|---|---|
Dec. 31, 2025 | |
| Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
| Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition: Revenue is recognized when a performance obligation is satisfied as control of a good or service is transferred to a customer in the amount expected to be entitled at transfer. For each customer contract, the performance obligations are identified, the transaction price is allocated to the individual performance obligations, and revenue is recognized when these performance obligations are fulfilled and control of the good or service is transferred to the customer. The transfer of control of a good or service to customers is generally based on written sales terms that allow customers right of return when the good or service does not meet certain quality factors. Revenue consists primarily of product revenue, which includes the selling of fresh produce, health foods and consumer goods to third-party customers. Fresh produce comprises two main product categories, tropical fruit and diversified produce. Tropical fruit primarily consists of bananas, pineapples and plantains, and diversified produce primarily consists of all other fruit, vegetables and other produce. Product revenue also includes surcharges for additional product services such as freight, cooling, warehousing, fuel, containerization, handling and palletization related to the transfer of products. Additionally, the Company has certain marketing contracts where Dole is the principal, and the related product revenue and cost of sales are reported on a gross basis. Product revenue is recognized at a point in time when control of the goods has been transferred to the customer, which can be upon shipping or delivery, depending on the terms of sale. Revenue also includes service revenue, which includes third-party freight services and royalties for the use of the Company’s brands and trademarks. Additionally, the Company maintains a commercial cargo business where revenue is earned by providing handling and transportation services of containerized cargo on the Company’s vessels. Net service revenue was less than 10% of total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. See Note 5 “Revenue” for additional detail of the Company’s revenue by product and channel. Dole’s incremental costs of obtaining a contract have primarily consisted of sales commissions, and the Company has elected the practical expedient to expense these costs that are related to contracts that are less than one year. These costs are included in selling, marketing and general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. If these costs relate to contracts that are greater than one year, the incremental costs are capitalized as a contract asset and amortized over the period from which the contract is obtained until the performance obligations are met. Dole’s contracts are generally less than one year, and incremental costs of obtaining a contract are not material. The Company treats shipping and handling costs that occur after the customer obtains control of the good as a fulfillment cost rather than a service performance obligation. Additionally, Dole has elected the practical expedient to exclude sales tax and other taxes imposed by government authorities on revenue-producing transactions from the transaction price. The period between the transfer of a promised good or service to a customer and customer payment is expected to be less than one year and, as such, Dole has elected the practical expedient to not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component. Revenue is recorded net of any sales allowances, sales promotions and sales incentives. Sales allowances are calculated based on historical claims information. Dole offers sales promotions and sales incentives to its customers. Sales promotions are temporary price reductions on third-party sales, and sales incentives include consumer coupons and discounts, volume and timing rebates and product placement fees. Estimated sales discounts are recorded in the period in which the related sale is recognized. Volume rebates are recognized in the period of sale as a reduction of revenue based on Dole’s estimate of sales volume over the term of the arrangement. All other sales incentives are estimated using both historical trends and current volumes and assumptions. The Company also enters cooperative advertising arrangements in which Dole refunds a retailer for a portion of the costs incurred to advertise Dole’s products. The value of these arrangements is treated as a reduction of revenue, unless the arrangement is in exchange for a distinct good or service, in which case, these amounts are recorded in selling, marketing and general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Adjustments to sales estimates are made periodically as new information becomes available and actual sales volumes become known. Adjustments to these estimates have historically not been significant to Dole.
|
| Cost of Sales | Cost of Sales: Cost of sales primarily consists of costs associated with the production or purchasing of inventory, packaging materials, labor, depreciation, overhead, transportation and other distribution costs. Cost of sales also includes recurring agricultural costs and shipping and handling costs, which are detailed below. |
| Agricultural Costs | Agricultural Costs: Plant costs, including seeds, trees, vines and stems, and preproduction costs, including land preparation, pre-planting and planting costs, are generally capitalized into inventory and charged to cost of sales when the related crop is harvested and sold, with the exception of pineapples, in which the costs are generally expensed as incurred. Certain plant and preproduction costs are capitalized to property, plant and equipment, depending on the crop, and charged to cost of sales over their life. All land development costs, including farm and soil improvements, are capitalized to property, plant and equipment. The useful lives for plant, preproduction and land development costs capitalized to property, plant and equipment are 2 to 25 years and are based on historical yields, climate and weather conditions and likelihood of disease and pest interference. Recurring agricultural costs after the preproduction period, including ongoing pruning, fertilization, watering and farm labor, are generally capitalized into inventory and charged to cost of sales when the related crop is harvested and sold, with the exception of pineapples and bananas, in which the costs are expensed as incurred, due to the continuous nature of production and associated costs incurred throughout the year. |
| Shipping and Handling Costs | Shipping and Handling Costs: Amounts billed to third-party customers for shipping and handling are included as a component of revenue. Shipping and handling costs incurred are included as a component of cost of sales and represent fulfillment costs incurred by Dole to ship products from the sourcing location to the end customer and are not considered separate performance obligations. |
| Value-Added Taxes | Value-Added Taxes: Value-added taxes (“VAT”) that are collected from customers and remitted to taxing authorities are excluded from revenue and cost of sales. Receivables related to value-added taxes are included within other receivables, net, and other assets in the consolidated balance sheets, depending on the expected timing of collection. Payables related to VAT are included within payroll and other tax in the consolidated balance sheets. |
| Marketing and Advertising Costs | Marketing and Advertising Costs: Marketing and advertising costs, which include media, production and other promotional costs, are generally expensed in the period in which the marketing or advertising first takes place. |
| Research and Development Costs | Research and Development Costs: Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and are included in cost of sales or selling, marketing and general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations, depending on the nature of the project. |
| Gain on Asset Sales | Gain on Asset Sales: Gain on asset sales primarily consists of gains and losses incurred through the disposal of assets held for sale and actively marketed property and other property disposed in the ordinary course of business. |
| Interest Income | Interest Income: Interest income primarily comprises interest earned from funds invested and other receivables, such as interest earned on grower advances, and is recognized using the effective interest method over the term of the underlying agreement. |
| Interest Expense | Interest Expense: Interest expense comprises interest on borrowings, amortization of discounts and issuance costs related to borrowings, interest on finance lease liabilities, fees for the sale of trade receivables under securitization arrangements, debt extinguishment costs and arrangement fees for borrowings. Non-capitalized debt extinguishment costs and arrangement fees for borrowings incurred as a result of debt refinancing are included in other (expense) income, net.
|
| Income Taxes | Income Taxes: Dole accounts for deferred taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amount and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in earnings in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount more likely than not to be realized. The Company recognizes the benefit of a tax position only to the extent that it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. If the tax position is deemed more-likely-than-not to be sustained, the tax position is then assessed to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the consolidated financial statements. The amount of the benefit that is recognized is the largest amount that is greater than 50.0% likely of being realized upon settlement. Income tax expense or benefit includes the effects of any resulting unrecognized tax benefits that are considered appropriate, as well as related net interest and penalties. In respect to undistributed earnings for foreign subsidiaries where those earnings are considered to be either indefinitely reinvested or could be distributed tax free, no deferred tax liability has been provided thereon. The Company releases income tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive loss as individual items in accumulated other comprehensive loss are settled or otherwise disposed.
|
| Discontinued Operations | Discontinued Operations: The disposal or held for sale designation of a component or a group of components is presented as discontinued operations when it represents a strategic shift that had, or will have, a major effect on Dole’s operations and financial results. A component of an entity comprises operations and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished both operationally and for financial reporting purposes. The Fresh Vegetables division first met the held-for-sale criteria in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and management determined that it would represent a strategic shift that would have a material effect on the Company’s operations and results. As such, the results of the Fresh Vegetables division have been classified as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations for the periods presented, and its related assets and liabilities have been classified as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2024. S
|
| Earnings (loss) per share ("EPS") | Earnings (loss) per share: Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net income or loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net income or loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, after the adjustment for the effects of potentially issuable shares, such as restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and stock options with a dilutive effect.
|
| Operating and Reportable Segments | Operating and Reportable Segments: Operating segments, defined as components of the Company that engage in business activities from which they earn revenue and incur expenses, are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The CODM, who is responsible for assessing performance and allocating resources amongst operating segments, is defined as the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Operating Officer (“COO”). Considering the exit from the Fresh Vegetables division, Dole has the following operating and reportable segments: Fresh Fruit, Diversified Fresh Produce – Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“Diversified Fresh Produce – EMEA”) and Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas and the Rest of the World (“Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas & ROW”).
|
| Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and highly liquid investments, primarily money market funds and time deposits, with original maturities of three months or less. Whenever outstanding checks exceed cash balances, the balance of the book overdraft is reclassified to accounts payable in the consolidated balance sheets, and changes in book overdraft balances are presented within operating activities within the consolidated statements of cash flows. Restricted cash was not material as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and therefore are not separately stated in the consolidated balance sheets.
|
| Short-Term and Long-Term Investments | Short-Term and Long-Term Investments: Dole sponsors various non-qualified benefit and executive compensation plans, with plan assets held in Rabbi Trusts. Short-term investments include the portion of the Rabbi Trust securities portfolio that approximates the short-term liability of the frozen non-qualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) defined benefit plan and the total liability of the non-qualified deferred compensation Excess Savings Plan (“ESP”). Long-term investments include the portion of the Rabbi Trust securities portfolio that will be used to fund a portion of the long-term liability of the SERP plan. Securities are recorded at fair value with realized and unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. Dole estimates the fair value of its investments using prices provided by its custodian. |
| Trade Receivables, Grower Advances and Other Receivables | Trade Receivables: Trade receivables are recognized net of allowances, which approximates fair value. While in certain regions, the Company’s customer base consists of some large, key customers, credit risk related to trade receivables is mitigated due to the significant number of customers dispersed worldwide. To reduce credit risk, Dole performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers but does not generally require advance payments or collateral. Expected credit losses for newly recognized trade receivables, as well as changes to existing expected credit losses during the period, are recognized in selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Refer to Note 8 “Receivables and Allowances for Credit Losses” for further detail on how the Company estimates these credit losses. No individual customer accounted for more than 10.0% of Dole’s revenue during the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, nor accounted for greater than 10.0% of Dole’s account receivables as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Dole regularly sells a portion of its trade receivables under arrangements with third-party financial institutions. The Company accounts for the transfers of trade receivables as sales when it has surrendered control, at which point the receivables are derecognized. Determining when control has transferred requires evaluation of the nature and extent of the Company’s involvement with the transferred receivables as well as consideration of certain legal and other factors. See Note 8 “Receivables and Allowances for Credit Losses” for further detail. Grower Advances: Dole makes advances to third-party growers for various production needs. Some of these advances are secured with crop harvests or other collateral owned by the growers. Dole monitors these receivables on a regular basis and estimates expected credit losses for all outstanding grower advances to determine if a related impairment loss and allowance should be recognized. These expected credit losses are evaluated on a case-by-case basis and are based on factors such as historical credit loss information, the timing of the growing season and expected yields, the fair value of the collateral, macroeconomic indicators, weather conditions, and other miscellaneous factors. Grower advances are stated at the gross advance amount less allowances for expected credit losses. Dole generally considers an advance to a grower to be past due when the advance is not fully recovered by the excess cash proceeds on the current year crop harvest or when the advance is not repaid by the excess cash proceeds by the end of the supply term agreement. Grower advances are disaggregated into short-term advances that mature in one year or less, which are included within grower advance receivables, net, in the consolidated balance sheets and long-term advances that are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. See Note 8 “Receivables and Allowances for Credit Losses” for further detail on grower advances. Other Receivables: Other receivables consists primarily of receivables from governmental institutions, hedging receivables and miscellaneous non-trade receivables from customers, suppliers, and other third parties. These receivables are recorded net of allowances established based on specific account data and factors such as historical losses, current economic conditions, age of receivables, the value of any collateral and payment status compared to payment terms. Receivables are written off against the allowance once management determines the receivable is uncollectible.
|
| Concentration of Credit Risk | Concentration of Credit Risk: Financial instruments that potentially subject Dole to a concentration of credit risk principally consist of cash equivalents, investments, derivative contracts and grower advances. Credit risk related to trade receivables is mitigated through the Company’s significant customer base and periodic credit valuations. Dole’s cash and investments are maintained with high quality financial institutions. Dole’s derivative contracts, which are discussed in greater detail below, are with major financial institutions. Dole’s grower advances are principally with farming enterprises and may be secured by the underlying crop harvests or other collateral.
|
| Inventories | Inventories: Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Costs related to fresh produce are determined on the first-in, first-out basis. Specific identification and average cost methods are also used primarily for certain packing materials and operating supplies. In the normal course of business, the Company incurs certain crop growing costs such as land preparation, planting, fertilization, grafting, pruning and irrigation. Based on the nature of these costs and type of crop production, these costs may be capitalized into inventory. Generally, all recurring direct and indirect costs of growing crops for fresh produce other than bananas and pineapples are capitalized into inventory. These costs are recognized into cost of sales during each harvest period. Due to the nature of the Company’s inventory, such as quick inventory turnover rates, reserves for excess production and obsolescence are not significant. Physical goods that have completed production and are held for sale in the ordinary course of business are classified as finished products. Inventories classified as raw materials represent goods that will be consumed in production, such as fresh fruit or vegetables to be modified from their original form and those awaiting packaging. Goods that are in the course of production are classified as work in progress. Packaging materials represent items such as consumer packing, labels and pallets utilized directly in the production process. Inventories classified as crop growing costs include costs incurred up to the time crops are produced in commercial quantities. In addition, agricultural and other operating supplies that are consumed indirectly in production, such as ripening agents, fertilizer and fuel, are also capitalized into inventory.
|
| Assets Held-for-Sale and Actively Marketed Property | Assets Held for Sale and Actively Marketed Property: Dole reports a business or assets as held for sale when management has approved or received approval to sell the business or assets and is committed to a formal plan, the business or assets are available for immediate sale, the business or assets are being actively marketed, the sale is anticipated to occur during the ensuing year and the other specified criteria for held for sale classification are met. In certain situations when timing of the sale of land is uncertain and held-for-sale criteria are not met, Dole classifies such assets as actively marketed property. A business or assets classified as held for sale or land classified as actively marketed property are recorded at the lower of their carrying amount or estimated fair value less cost to sell. If their carrying amount exceeds their estimated fair value, a loss is recognized. Depreciation is not recorded on assets classified as held for sale or on land improvements associated with actively marketed property. Assets and liabilities related to a business classified as held for sale and actively marketed property are segregated in the consolidated balance sheets, and major classes are separately disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, commencing in the period in which the business or assets are classified as held for sale or actively marketed. |
| Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates | Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates: Investments in unconsolidated affiliates and joint ventures with ownership by Dole of 20.0% to 50.0% are recorded using the equity method, provided Dole has the ability to exercise significant influence. In addition, entities in which the Company has variable interests are also recorded using the equity method when it is determined that the Company is not the primary beneficiary in the relationship but has the ability to exercise significant influence. Under the equity method of accounting, a share of earnings and losses based on Dole’s ownership percentage in the investment is recorded in earnings each period. All material equity method investments have the same fiscal year-end as Dole. Where appropriate, the accounting policies of equity method investments have been adjusted to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by Dole. All other unconsolidated investments where we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence are recorded at cost less impairment, adjusted for any observable price changes, as their fair value is not readily determinable. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, substantially all of Dole’s investments in unconsolidated affiliates have been accounted for under the equity method. Dole evaluates its equity method investments and investments held at cost for impairment when facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such investments may not be recoverable. Dole reviews several factors to determine whether the loss is other than temporary, such as the length and extent of the fair value decline, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the investee and whether Dole has the intent to sell or will be required to sell before the investment’s anticipated recovery. If a decline in fair value is determined to be other than temporary, an impairment charge is recorded in equity method earnings (loss) in the consolidated statements of operations. See Note 22 “Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates” for additional detail on the Company’s unconsolidated investments.
|
| Property, Plant and Equipment | Property, Plant and Equipment: Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost plus any asset retirement costs, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of these assets. Dole reviews long-lived assets to be held and used for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset group may not be recoverable. If an evaluation of recoverability is required, the estimated undiscounted future cash flows directly associated with the asset are compared to the asset’s carrying amount. If this comparison indicates that there is an impairment, the amount of the impairment is calculated by comparing the carrying value to discounted expected future cash flows or comparable market values, depending on the nature of the asset group. In the case that an asset is reclassified from held for sale to held for use due to a change in plan of sale, an impairment is calculated to record the asset at the lower of carrying amount (adjusted for depreciation had these assets been continuously classified as held and used) and fair value. Routine maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.
|
| Leases, lessor | Leases: Dole leases fixed assets for use in operations where leasing offers advantages of operating flexibility and is less expensive than alternative types of funding. Dole’s leases are evaluated at inception and any subsequent modification and, depending on the lease terms, are classified as either finance or operating leases. For leases with terms greater than one year, the Company recognizes a related asset (“right-of-use asset” or “lease asset”) and obligation (“lease liability”) on the lease commencement date, calculated as the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Right-of-use assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Dole’s leases may include rental escalation clauses, renewal options and termination options that are factored into the determination of lease payments and lease term when appropriate. Dole’s lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees. The majority of Dole’s leases are classified as operating leases. Dole’s principal operating leases have historically been for vessel containers that do not meet the finance lease criteria, ports, land, warehouse facilities, vehicles and machinery and equipment. Dole’s finance leases primarily have historically been for vessels, vessel containers and machinery and equipment that meet the finance lease criteria. Dole’s decision to exercise any renewal options is primarily dependent on the level of business conducted at the location and the profitability of the renewal. The Company has elected to account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component in contracts where Dole is the lessee. When available, the rate implicit in the lease is used to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of Dole’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company’s estimated incremental borrowing rate is used to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. When the Company acts as a lessor for contracts that contains a lease component, the Company allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of their relative standalone prices at inception or modification of the lease. Also, the Company determines whether each lease is classified as a sales-type, direct financing or an operating lease. Dole recognizes income earned from operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term as a part of other (expense), income, net, in the consolidated statements of operations.

For leases with terms greater than one year, the Company recognizes a related asset (“right-of-use asset” or “lease asset”) and obligation (“lease liability”) on the lease commencement date, calculated as the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Right-of-use assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Dole’s leases may include rental escalation clauses, renewal options and termination options that are factored into the determination of lease payments and lease term when appropriate. Dole’s lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees. The majority of Dole’s leases are classified as operating leases. Dole’s principal operating leases have historically been for vessel containers that do not meet the finance lease criteria, ports, land, warehouse facilities, vehicles and machinery and equipment. Dole’s finance leases primarily have historically been for vessels, vessel containers and machinery and equipment that meet the finance lease criteria. Dole’s decision to exercise any renewal options is primarily dependent on the level of business conducted at the location and the profitability of the renewal. The Company has elected to account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component in contracts where Dole is the lessee. When available, the rate implicit in the lease is used to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of Dole’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company’s estimated incremental borrowing rate is used to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. When the Company acts as a lessor for contracts that contains a lease component, the Company allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of their relative standalone prices at inception or modification of the lease. Also, the Company determines whether each lease is classified as a sales-type, direct financing or an operating lease. Dole recognizes income earned from operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term as a part of other (expense), income, net, in the consolidated statements of operations.

| Goodwill and Intangible Assets | Goodwill and Intangible Assets: Goodwill represents the excess cost of a business acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired, including the amount assigned to identifiable intangible assets. Dole tests goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level annually on the first day of the fourth quarter of each fiscal year and when there is an indicator of impairment. Dole defines each of its operating business segments as reporting units. The reporting units with allocated goodwill include Fresh Fruit, Diversified Fresh Produce – EMEA, and Diversified Fresh Produce – Americas & ROW. Other indefinite-lived intangible assets are also reviewed for impairment annually on the first day of the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. For the annual goodwill impairment test, management may assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of each reporting unit with goodwill is less than its carrying amount. These qualitative factors include market and industry considerations, overall financial performance and other relevant events and factors affecting the reporting unit. If the results of the qualitative assessment indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, a quantitative assessment is required for that reporting unit. Alternatively, the Company may bypass the qualitative assessment and perform a quantitative assessment. In fiscal year 2025, Dole elected to bypass the qualitative test and performed a quantitative goodwill impairment assessment. The quantitative assessment involves comparing the fair value of each reporting unit with allocated goodwill to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds it estimated fair value, an impairment of goodwill is recognized up to the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. Fair values for reporting units are generally determined using a discounted cash flow model involving market multiples or appraised values, if appropriate. The present value models involve inputs which are sensitive and judgmental in nature, such as estimates of future financial performance, long-term cash flow projections and discount rates. Dole’s other indefinite-lived intangible assets, primarily consisting of the DOLE® brand, are considered to have an indefinite life, because they are expected to generate cash flows indefinitely and, as such, are not amortized. The Company may perform a qualitative assessment for each indefinite-lived intangible asset to determine if it is more likely than not that the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value, which would require a quantitative assessment. The quantitative test compares the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount exceeds fair value, an impairment loss is recognized. Dole may also elect to bypass the qualitative assessment and perform a quantitative assessment.
|
| Bank Overdrafts | Bank Overdrafts: The Company and its subsidiaries have a number of bank overdraft facilities which are primarily used to fund seasonal working capital requirements. The facilities contain covenants customary for unsecured facilities of this kind, including financial covenants on maximum leverage and minimum interest cover. Bank overdrafts are classified as a current liability in the consolidated balance sheets. |
| Debt | Debt: Debt is carried at the principal amount borrowed, including unamortized discounts and premiums and debt issuance costs, when applicable. Debt discounts and issuance costs are amortized over the term of the debt agreement using the effective interest method and are presented as a direct reduction of debt in the consolidated balance sheets, except for those issuance costs related to revolving credit facilities or line-of-credit arrangements which are amortized on a straight-line basis and presented as an other current asset or other asset, depending on maturity date, in the consolidated balance sheets. |
| Derivative Financial Instruments, Fair Value Hedges and Cash Flow Hedges | Derivative Financial Instruments: Dole holds derivative instruments to hedge against risks in foreign currency exchange, fuel costs and interest rates on long-term borrowings. Dole estimates the fair value of its derivatives, including any credit valuation adjustments, using market-based inputs. All realized gains and losses under designated cash flow hedges are included in earnings in the consolidated statements of operations, and unrealized gains and losses are included in other comprehensive income (loss). For all other hedges not designated as hedging instruments, all realized and unrealized gains and losses are recorded in the same line item within the consolidated statements of operations as the activity that is being hedged from a financial risk management perspective, with the exception of non-designated interest rate swaps which are insignificant. We also classify the cash flows from our cash flow hedges and fair value hedges in the same category as the items being hedged on our consolidated statements of cash flows. Fair Value Hedges: The Company enters into fair value hedges to hedge foreign currency exposure of certain non-functional currency denominated assets and liabilities. Dole enters into foreign currency forward contracts primarily to hedge the changes in fair value of certain intercompany loans and certain receivables and payables denominated in a foreign currency. Cash Flow Hedges: The Company enters into cash flow hedges to hedge against variability in certain expected future cash flows related to foreign currency exchange and interest rates on long-term borrowings. Dole enters into foreign currency exchange forward contracts and option contracts to hedge a portion of its forecasted revenue, cost of sales and operating expense. In order to mitigate interest rate uncertainty on long-term debt, Dole also enters into interest rate swap agreements. See Note 17 “Derivative Financial Instruments” for additional detail on derivative instruments.
|
| Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments: Dole’s financial instruments primarily comprise of cash and cash equivalents, short and long-term investments, short-term trade and grower receivables, trade payables and notes receivable, as well as long-term grower receivables, finance lease obligations, asset-based loans, contingent consideration and term loan facilities. The carrying amounts of short-term instruments, excluding Dole’s short-term Rabbi Trust investments that are recorded at fair value, approximate fair value because of their short maturity. Dole’s contingent consideration and long-term Rabbi Trust investments are recorded at fair value. Carrying amounts of other long-term financial instruments, excluding Dole’s term loans and certain loan receivables, approximate fair value, since the instruments bear interest at variable or fixed rates which approximate market rates. See Note 18 “Fair Value Measurements” for additional detail. Dole also holds retirement plan assets which are measured at fair value. Dole estimates the fair value of its retirement plan assets based on quoted market prices, dependent on availability. In instances where quoted market prices are not readily available, the fair value of the investment securities is estimated based on pricing models using observable or unobservable inputs. As a practical expedient, the Company uses net asset value (“NAV”) to measure certain investments without a readily determinable fair value within the Company’s pension asset portfolio.
|
| Foreign Currency Exchange | Foreign Currency Exchange: The functional currency of Dole is the U.S. dollar. For subsidiaries with transactions that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency, the net foreign currency exchange transaction gains or losses resulting from the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities to the functional currency are included in the consolidated statements of operations. Transaction gains and losses were not material in the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Net foreign currency exchange gains or losses resulting from the translation of assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the U.S. Dollar are recorded as a part of the cumulative translation adjustment in stockholders’ equity.
|
| Pension and Postretirement Benefits | Pension and Postretirement Benefits: Dole sponsors several defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement benefit (“OPRB”) plans covering certain eligible employees. The funded status of these plans is recorded on the consolidated balance sheets, with overfunded plans presented in other assets and underfunded plans presented in pension and postretirement benefit liabilities. Net benefit obligations of underfunded plans that are due over the next year are presented as current liabilities. Actuarial assumptions including discount rates, salary increases, expected return on plan assets, mortality and other factors are used to measure the funded status and annual expense of the plans. Obligations and any assets associated with pension and postretirement benefit plans are measured at fair value as of December 31 each year. |
| Share-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation: Stock-based compensation for Dole consists of RSUs and stock options. At their grant date, RSUs with only a service condition are valued using the current share price, RSUs with a market condition are valued using a Monte Carlo simulation approach and stock options are valued using the Black Scholes pricing model. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period of each award. |
| Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest ("NCI") | Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest (“NCI”): If a put option is held by a NCI in a subsidiary undertaking, whereby the holder of the put option can require Dole to acquire the NCI's ownership in the subsidiary at a future date, the Company examines the nature of such a put option to determine whether the put option is a separate financial instrument to, or embedded within, the NCI. As the Company’s NCI containing put options have exercise prices based on future earnings of the related consolidated subsidiaries that are redeemable at the option of the holder and meet the criteria for mezzanine classification, they are classified as redeemable NCI as mezzanine equity in the consolidated balance sheets. The options do not contain a limit to the amount that the Company could be required to pay upon exercise by the holder, and the embedded put and call features do not meet the criteria for bifurcation. Both permanent and mezzanine-classified NCI are measured at fair value on the acquisition date. Each reporting period, net income and comprehensive income of a consolidated subsidiary is allocated to the controlling interest and NCI. When redemption of a mezzanine-classified NCI becomes probable, the NCI is accreted to its redemption value with the offset recorded to additional paid-in-capital in the consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity. These changes are accreted over the period prior to the earliest redemption date or recognized immediately. As of December 31, 2025, the $29.7 million of redeemable NCI in the consolidated balance sheets represents the carrying value of the redeemable NCI. The total gross redemption value of the instruments was $40.3 million, had the options been exercised as of December 31, 2025, payable over a maximum of four years.
|
| Guarantees | Guarantees: Dole makes guarantees as part of its normal business activities. Dole’s guarantees include guarantees of the indebtedness of some of its key fruit suppliers and other entities integral to Dole’s operations. Dole also issues bank guarantees as required by certain regulatory authorities, suppliers and other operating agreements, as well as to support the borrowings, leases and other obligations of its subsidiaries. The majority of Dole’s guarantees relate to guarantees of subsidiary obligations and are scoped out of the initial measurement and recognition accounting requirements related to guarantees. |
| Business Combination | See Note 19 “Contingencies” for further detail on the Company’s guarantees. Business Combinations: Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Application of this method of accounting requires that (i) identifiable assets acquired (including identifiable intangible assets) and liabilities assumed generally be measured at fair value as of the acquisition date, and (ii) the excess of the purchase price over the net fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized as goodwill. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the allocation of the purchase price requires management to use significant judgment and estimates, especially with respect to intangible assets. Estimates in valuing certain identifiable assets include, but are not limited to, the selection of valuation methodologies, estimates of future revenue and cash flows, expected long-term market growth, future expected operating expenses, costs of capital and appropriate discount rates. Management's estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable, and as a result, actual values may differ from these estimates. During the measurement period, certain adjustments may be recorded to the carrying fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. After the measurement period, which could last up to one year after the transaction date, all adjustments are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. The NCI in acquired businesses are measured at fair value at the date of acquisition and are separately presented within stockholders' equity, distinct from equity attributable to Dole. Each reporting period, net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) of consolidated subsidiaries in which NCI are held are attributed to that NCI based on their equity interest in each consolidated subsidiary. Contingent consideration is recognized and measured at fair value at the acquisition date. Any obligation of the Company to pay contingent consideration in connection with a business combination is classified as a liability as required by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity; otherwise, it is classified as equity. Post-combination accounting for contingent consideration is impacted by its initial classification. When it is classified as a liability, it is remeasured at each reporting date at fair value, and any changes in fair value are reported within earnings. When it is classified as equity, the contingent consideration is not subsequently remeasured, and its settlement is accounted for within equity. Dole’s contingent consideration represents the provision for the net present value of the amounts expected to be payable for acquisitions which are subject to earn-out arrangements and is expected to be paid between 2026 and 2027. Contingencies: Estimated losses from contingencies are recognized at fair value if it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred as of the date of the financial statements and the amount of that loss can be reasonably estimated. Gain contingencies are not recognized until realized. Judgment is used to assess whether a loss contingency is probable and estimable, and actual results may differ from that estimate. See Note 19 “ Contingencies” for further detail on the Company’s contingencies.

| Schedule of Fair Value, Assets and Liabilities Measured on Recurring Basis | The following tables present the fair values of the Company’s assets and liabilities remeasured at fair value as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
The assets and liabilities that are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis are derivative instruments, contingent consideration and Rabbi Trust investments. The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments are determined using Level 2 inputs, which are defined as “observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but corroborated by market data.” The fair values of the foreign currency forward contracts, the interest rate swaps and bunker fuel hedges were estimated using internal discounted cash flow calculations based upon forward foreign currency exchange rates, bunker fuel futures, interest rate yield curves or quotes obtained from brokers for contracts with similar terms, less any credit valuation adjustments based on Dole’s own credit risk and any counterparties' credit risk. Dole sponsors a non-qualified deferred compensation plan and a frozen non-qualified supplemental defined benefit plan for executives. The plans are funded through investments in Rabbi Trusts. Securities are recorded at fair value with realized and unrealized holding gains or losses included in earnings. As of December 31, 2025, securities totaled $20.2 million, of which $6.4 million was classified as short-term and included in short-term investments in the consolidated balance sheets, and $13.8 million was classified as long-term and included in long-term investments in the consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2024, securities totaled $20.6 million, of which $6.0 million was classified as short-term and $14.6 million was classified as long-term. Dole estimates the fair value of its Rabbi Trust investments using prices provided by its custodian, which are based on various third-party pricing services or valuation models developed by the underlying fund managers. The Rabbi Trust investments are held by the custodian in various Master Trust Units (“MTUs”), where the fair value is derived from the individual investment components. Each investment within the MTU is individually valued, after considering gains, losses, contributions and distributions, and the collective value of the MTU represents the total fair value. Dole has evaluated the methodologies used by the custodian to develop the estimate of fair value and assessed whether such valuations are representative of fair value, including net asset value. Dole has determined the valuations to be Level 3 inputs, because they are based upon significant unobservable inputs.
