[ ] Written communications pursuant to Rule 425 under the Securities Act (17 CFR 230.425)
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
Members of management of ConAgra Foods, Inc. (the "Company") will meet with members of the investment community on May 13, 14 and 15, 2009. During these meetings, management of the Company is expected to reaffirm previously issued guidance of fiscal 2009 diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, excluding items impacting comparability, of slightly above $1.50. A reconciliation for Regulation G purposes is attached as exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The Company expects to comment on its fiscal 2010 outlook with its Q4 2009 earnings release, scheduled to be issued on June 25, 2009. At its meetings with members of the investment community this week, senior management is also expected to reaffirm previously issued guidance of long-term annual earnings per share growth, excluding items impacting comparability, of 8-10% and long-term return on invested capital, excluding items impacting comparability, approaching 12-13% over long term. The inability to predict the timing and amount of future items impacting comparability makes a detailed reconciliation of earnings per share growth and return on invested capital impracticable.
