In the fiscal year ending December 30, 2023, the company reported net sales of $11.29 billion, a slight increase compared to the previous year's net sales of $11.15 billion. This increase in revenue indicates steady growth in the company's top-line performance.
The cost of sales for the same period in 2023 was $6.76 billion, higher than the previous year's cost of sales of $6.22 billion. This increase suggests higher expenses related to generating the revenue, potentially impacting the company's gross profit margin.
The gross profit for the fiscal year ending December 30, 2023, was $4.52 billion, lower than the previous year's gross profit of $4.93 billion. This decrease may be attributed to the higher cost of sales, impacting the overall profitability of the company.

The company reported a net income of $29.74 million for the fiscal year ending December 30, 2023, notably lower than the previous year's net income of $464.40 million. This substantial decrease in net income may raise concerns about the company's bottom-line performance and overall financial health.

These figures are significantly lower than the previous year's basic and diluted earnings per share of $7.70 and $7.65, respectively.
