Once Upon a Farm, the organic baby food company co-founded by actress Jennifer Garner, reported first-quarter revenue that beat estimates following its February IPO, though losses widened to $0.59 per share. The company grew revenue 44% and raised its full-year guidance. CEO John Foraker attributed the strong performance to expansion of refrigerated coolers in baby aisles, which proved 11% more productive in Q1 than the previous quarter. The company expects to have 5,000 coolers installed by year-end, up from 3,700 currently. Foraker described the brand as "fairly inelastic", suggesting parents prioritise spending on children's food even during economic downturns. The company expanded gross margins through supply chain productivity improvements rather than price increases.

Once Upon a Farm, a childhood nutrition company, reported first quarter 2026 net sales of $72.7 million, up 43.7% year-over-year. Gross margin expanded to 40.8% from 37.7%, driven by lower slotting fees related to coolers. The company narrowed its net loss to $15.8 million from $19.5 million in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA loss improved to $3.1 million from a $7.5 million loss. Dollar productivity from cooler placements increased approximately 11% versus the prior quarter. Following its February 2026 IPO, Once Upon a Farm had $99.9 million in cash and no debt as of 31 March, compared to $10.9 million in cash and $60.2 million in debt at year-end 2025. The company raised its full-year 2026 net sales outlook to $313 million to $323 million, representing 30% to 34% growth.

Once Upon a Farm, a publicly traded organic children's food company, has formed its inaugural Public Benefit Corporation Advisory Board. The cross-disciplinary group will guide the company's mission to deliver nutritious food whilst creating positive social and environmental impact. As a PBC since 2021, Once Upon a Farm has legally codified its commitment to stakeholders alongside shareholders, making it one of few publicly traded companies with this structure. The advisory board includes experts from food systems, sustainability, public health and policy, including former executives from REI, Clif Bar and the USDA. The board will meet quarterly to review progress against public benefit commitments and provide strategic guidance on balancing stakeholder interests whilst scaling the business. The company currently offers organic, non-GMO snacks and meals for children.
