About this update from The Middleby Corporation
The Middleby Corporation (NASDAQ: MIDD) today announced that it has completed the previously announced spin-off of its Food Processing business, now operating as Midera Food Processing, Inc. (“Midera”). Shares of Midera common stock will begin trading “regular way” on The Nasdaq Stock Market under the ticker symbol “MFP,” effective at the market opening on July 7, 2026. “This separation represents the culmination of strategic portfolio work to unlock the full value potential for our shareholders,” said Tim FitzGerald, Chief Executive Officer of Middleby. “Middleby emerges as a pure-play commercial foodservice leader with a differentiated platform built on innovation, connected solutions, and market-leading brands.
