— 1 · The Locked Call

General Mills keeps its FY27 adj-EPS guidance floor at Q1 — P = 0.82.

We lock a binary: at its Q1 FY2027 results, General Mills does not cut the lower bound of its FY2027 adjusted diluted EPS guidance ($3.00), per the company's release. Confidence 82%.

— 2 · Why it's nail-able — and why only 82%

Full-year guides are rarely cut one quarter in — but packaged food is under real volume pressure.

Companies seldom trim a freshly-issued full-year guide at the first quarter, and General Mills' defensive staples base supports the floor. We hold 82%, not higher, because packaged-food volumes have been soft and a weak Q1 or a promotional step-up could prompt an early guidance trim. Resolves against the Q1 FY2027 guidance.
