Cal-Maine Foods added Dudley D. Wooley, CEO of Ross & Yerger Insurance, Inc., as an independent Class III director, filling the seat left by Jim Poole, who recently passed away. Mr. Wooley joins the Compensation, Audit, and Nominating and Corporate Governance committees and receives standard non-employee director pay, which the filing does not show affecting company financial results.
Term runs until the 2027 annual meeting; Board determined he is independent under Nasdaq listing standards.
Annual director fee of $45,000, paid quarterly in advance; RSAs with a $100,000 target grant value approved March 31, 2026, vesting 100% on January 12, 2029.
Succeeds Jim Poole, who recently passed away; press release announcing the appointment dated April 1, 2026.
The filing dates the appointment to March 31, 2025, while the RSA grant is dated March 31, 2026, so the appointment date appears to contain an error.

Management attributed the decline mainly to much lower egg prices compared with the prior year, and the filing gives no updated numeric guidance, so shareholders face a sharply weaker quarter.

Briefs are written by AI from the filing text and can contain mistakes — open the filing before acting on anything. Impact (1-5) and tone are the AI's reading of the filing for shareholders, not a price forecast. Not investment advice.
Briefs marked “Written later” were written in November 2026 for filings that were by then more than three weeks old, so months before mid-October 2026 hold a selection: every material 8-K of the past year for the 100 largest companies we cover and the last 15 important 8-Ks of every other one. Briefs the number check holds back are not shown or counted. Also: the last 45 days, briefs by company, A–Z and the live SEC filings wire.
