PUERTO RICO HURRICANE IMPACT | PUERTO RICO HURRICANE IMPACT Hurricane Maria became the strongest storm to make landfall in Puerto Rico in 85 years when it came ashore on September 20, 2017. The Company suffered significant damage because of the storm. Pilgrim’s lost 2.1 million birds on the island, many of the Company’s contract growers lost their poultry houses, and the Company incurred damage at its processing plant, feed mill and hatchery. PPC does not expect that its operations on the island will be fully functional until the fourth quarter of 2018. Estimated damages incurred by the Company through September 30, 2018 included property and casualty losses totaling $5.2 million and a business interruption claim totaling $14.8 million. Pilgrim’s expects to receive insurance proceeds related to these damages in the amount of $11.5 million and has recorded a receivable from its insurance provider for that amount. The amount of insurance recovery related to both the property and casualty losses and the business interruption claim are included in Cost of sales in the Condensed Consolidated and Combined Statements of Income and are recognized in the U.S. segment.
