(unaudited)

        The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the thirteen weeks ended August 27, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 3, 2006.

        The balance sheet at May 28, 2005 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

        For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Cal-Maine Foods, Inc.‘s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 28, 2005.

Hillandale Acquisition

        We have entered into an Agreement to Form a Limited Liability Company, Transfer Assets Thereto, and Purchase Units of Membership Therein, dated July 28, 2005, with Hillandale Farms, Inc. and Hillandale Farms of Florida, Inc. (together, “Hillandale”), and the Hillandale shareholders (the “Agreement”). Hillandale’s production facilities are principally located in Florida, where it began operations over 30 years ago. Hillandale has a strong marketing presence in Florida, Georgia and Alabama. When completed, the Hillandale acquisition is expected to increase our current egg production capacity by approximately 30%.

        Under the terms of the Agreement, we will acquire a majority interest in a new Florida limited liability company, named Hillandale, LLC, into which the two Hillandale companies will transfer substantially all their operational assets and liabilities. The two Hillandale companies will be the initial members of Hillandale, LLC, for formation purposes. Upon the completion of an evaluation of the assets and liabilities to be transferred to Hillandale, LLC, as agreed to by the parties to the Agreement, we will purchase 51% of the Units of Membership in Hillandale, LLC. The remaining 49% of the Units of Membership in Hillandale, LLC, are to be acquired in essentially equal annual installments over a four-year period, with the purchase price of the units equal to their book value as calculated in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. The acquisition will be made for cash, from our available funds, and borrowings to the extent necessary. We will acquire our initial 51% interest in Hillandale, LLC, at a presently estimated cost of approximately $26 to $29 million, subject to adjustment upwards or downwards, based upon the valuations agreed upon by the parties to the Agreement.

        We gained effective control of the Hillandale, LLC operations upon signing of the Agreement. Accordingly, the acquisition date for accounting purposes is July 28, 2005. The operations of Hillandale, LLC will be consolidated with our operations beginning July 29, 2005. Because all of the information to close the accounting records of Hillandale, LLC is not yet available, we will include the financial statements of Hillandale, LLC in our consolidated financial statements beginning in the second fiscal quarter of 2006. We believe the operating results of Hillandale, LLC for the period from July 28, 2005 through August 27, 2005 are not significant to our operations and financial position for the first quarter of fiscal 2006.

        During 2004, Hillandale sold approximately 129.3 million dozen eggs produced by its flock of approximately 5.5 million layers at eight production facilities located in Florida and Alabama, including approximately 3.9 million dozen produced under contract arrangements with others. Like us, Hillandale is a fully integrated producer with its own feed mills, hatchery, production, processing and distribution facilities.

Stock Based Compensation

We account for stock option grants in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.”

The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock- Based Compensation,” which require compensation cost for all stock-based employee compensation plans to be recognized based on the use of a fair value method (in thousands, except per share amounts):

New Stock Option Plan and New Stock Appreciation Rights Plan

On July 28, 2005, our Board of Directors approved the Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. 2005 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) and reserved 500,000 shares for issuance upon exercise of options granted under the Plan. Options issued pursuant to the Plan may be granted to any employee or non-employee member of the Board of Directors. The options may have a term of up to ten years and generally will vest ratably over five years. On August 17, 2005, we issued 360,000 options with an exercise price of $5.93. The options have ten-year terms and vest over five years beginning from the date of grant. The Plan is subject to ratification by our shareholders and is on the agenda for consideration at our annual meeting of shareholders to be held on October 13, 2005.

On July 28, 2005, our Board of Directors also approved the Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. Stock Appreciation Rights Plan (the “Rights Plan”). The Rights Plan covers 1,000,000 shares of our common stock of the Company. Stock Appreciation Rights (“SAR”) may be granted to any employee or non-employee member of the Board of Directors. Upon exercise of a SAR, the holder will receive shares of our common stock equal to the difference between the fair market value of a single share of common stock at the time of exercise and the strike price which is equal to the fair market value of a single share of common stock on the date of the grant. The SARs have a ten-year term and vest over five years. On August 17, 2005, we issued 592,500 SARs with a strike price of $5.93 and, on August 26, 2005, we issued 22,500 SARs with a strike price of $6.71. The Rights Plan is subject to ratification by our shareholders and also is on the agenda for consideration at our annual meeting of shareholders on October 13, 2005.

        Inventories consisted of the following:

        On August 3, 2004, our Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to 2,000,000 shares of our common stock by July 31, 2005. The repurchase program, in which approximately 942,000 shares were repurchased, expired on July 31, 2005. We do not have any other stock repurchase programs. No shares were repurchased in the quarter ended August 27, 2005.

        We are defendants in certain legal actions. It is our opinion, based on advice of legal counsel, that the outcome of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or operations. Please refer to Part II, Item 1, of this report for description of certain pending legal proceedings.

        Basic loss per share is based on the weighted average common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per share includes any dilutive effects of options and warrants. Options and warrants representing 121,400 shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the thirteen week period ended August 27, 2005 because of the net loss for the period.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        This report contains numerous forward-looking statements relating to our shell egg business, including estimated production data, expected operating schedules, expected capital costs and other operating data. Such forward-looking statements are identified by the use of words such as “believes,” “intends,” “expects,”“hopes,” “may,” “should,” “plan,”“projected,” “contemplates,” “anticipates” or similar words. Actual production, operating schedules, results of operations and other projections and estimates could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. The factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements include (i) the risk factors set forth under Item 1 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 28, 2005, (ii) the risks and hazards inherent in the shell egg business (including disease, pests, and weather conditions), (iii) changes in the market prices of shell eggs, and (iv) changes or obligations that could result from our future acquisition of new flocks or businesses. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements. We disclaim any intent or obligation to update publicly these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

OVERVIEW

        Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our”, or the “Company”) is primarily engaged in the production, grading, packaging, marketing and distribution of fresh shell eggs. Our fiscal year end is the Saturday closest to May 31.

        Our operations are fully integrated. At our facilities we hatch chicks, grow and maintain flocks of pullets (young female chickens, usually under 20 weeks of age), layers (mature female chickens) and breeders (male or female birds used to produce fertile eggs to be hatched for egg production flocks), manufacture feed, and produce, process and distribute shell eggs. We are the largest producer and marketer of shell eggs in the United States. We market the majority of our shell eggs in 28 states, primarily in the southwestern, southeastern, mid-western and mid-Atlantic regions of the United States. We market our shell eggs through our extensive distribution network to a diverse group of customers, including national and regional grocery store chains, club stores, foodservice distributors and egg product manufacturers.

        We currently produce approximately 75% of the total number of shell eggs sold by us, with approximately 13% of such total shell egg production being through the use of contract producers. Contract producers operate under agreements with us for the use of their facilities in the production of shell eggs by layers owned by us. We own the shell eggs produced under these arrangements. Approximately 25% of the total number of shell eggs sold by us is purchased from outside producers for resale, as needed, by us.

        Although several of our production facilities are located in areas affected by the recent hurricanes Katrina and Rita, there has been no material adverse effect to our operations or properties at these facilities.

        Our operating income or loss is significantly affected by wholesale shell egg market prices, which can fluctuate widely and are outside of our control. Retail sales of shell eggs are generally greatest during the fall and winter months and lowest during the summer months. Prices for shell eggs fluctuate in response to seasonal factors and a natural increase in egg production during the spring and early summer.

        Our cost of production is materially affected by feed costs, which average about 55% of our total shell egg production cost. Changes in feed costs result in changes in cost of goods sold. The cost of feed ingredients is affected by a number of supply and demand factors such as crop production and weather, and other factors, such as the level of grain exports, over which we have little or no control.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, certain items from our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations expressed as a percentage of net sales.

9

        Approximately 95% of our net sales consist of shell egg sales with the 5% balance consisting of incidental feed sales to outside egg producers. Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 were $79.8 million, a decrease of $22.2 million, or 21.8%, as compared to net sales of $102.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2005. Total eggs sold and egg selling prices decreased in the current fiscal 2006 quarter as compared to the same fiscal 2005 quarter. Dozens sold for the 2006 current quarter were 135.5 million dozen, a decrease of 10.1 million dozen, or 6.9%, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2005. Our net average selling price per dozen for the fiscal 2006 first quarter was $.555, compared to $.674 for the first quarter of fiscal 2005, a decrease of 17.7%. Our net average selling price is the blended price for all sizes and grades of shell eggs, including non-graded egg sales, breaking stock and undergrades. During fiscal 2004, consumer demand increased and egg producers increased egg supply to meet the demand. Early in fiscal 2005, consumer demand decreased to normal levels, but egg supply continued at the higher levels, resulting in a drop in egg selling prices through the remainder of fiscal 2005 and continuing through the first quarter of fiscal 2006. There has been a reduction in the nation’s laying flock numbers, which currently has created a more favorable balance of egg supply and demand.

        Cost of sales consists of costs directly related to production and processing of shell eggs, including feed costs, and purchases of shell eggs from outside egg producers. Cost of sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 was $78.8 million, a decrease of $12.5 million, or 13.71%, as compared to the cost of sales of $91.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2005. The decrease is due to decreases in dozen sold, cost of feed, and in cost of purchases from outside egg producers. The decrease in dozens sold resulted from reduced production in Company operations and reduced eggs purchases from outside producers. Due to the decrease in egg selling prices, the cost of outside purchases decreased. Feed cost per dozen for the fiscal 2006 first quarter was $.219, compared to $.270 per dozen for the comparable fiscal 2005 first quarter, a decrease of 18.9%. On a cost per dozen sold basis, excluding the feed cost decrease, cost of sales was approximately the same for the current and last year first fiscal quarters. The decrease in egg selling prices exceeded the decrease in cost of sales and resulted in a decrease in gross profit from 10.5% of net sales for the quarter ended August 28, 2004 to 1.2% of net sales for the current quarter ended August 27, 2005.

        Selling, general and administrative expenses include costs of marketing, distribution, accounting and corporate overhead. Selling, general and administrative expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 was $10.9 million, a decrease of $745,000, or 6.4%, as compared to the expense of $11.7 million for the comparable period last fiscal year. Most of the decrease is due to a decrease in salaries and related benefits expense and salary incentive program expenses. Costs were also decreased in legal expenses due to the settlement of certain litigation in last fiscal year and in general business insurance premiums for the current fiscal year. On a cost per dozen sold basis, selling, general and administrative expense remained approximately the same range, from $.080 per dozen for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 to $.081 per dozen for the current fiscal 2006 quarter. Although expenses decreased, the net sales decrease for the current 2006 quarter resulted in selling, general and administrative expense increasing from 11.5% of net sales for the 2005 fiscal quarter to 13.7% for fiscal 2006.

10

        As a result of the above, operating loss was $9.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2006, as compared to operating loss of $981,000 for fiscal 2005 first quarter. As a percent of net sales, the first fiscal 2006 quarter had operating loss of 12.5% of net sales, compared to an operating loss of 1.0% for the first quarter of fiscal 2005.

        Other income or expense consists of costs or income not directly charged to, or related to, operations such as interest expense and equity in income (loss) of affiliates. Other expense for the first quarter ended August 27, 2005 was $2.1 million, an increase of $1.7 million, as compared to $416,000 for the quarter ended August 28, 2004. Although debt balances were lower for the first fiscal 2006 quarter as compared to the fiscal 2005 quarter, net interest expense increased $568,000, due to lower interest income received from reduced cash investment balances. Other expense was $449,000 for the 2006 first quarter as compared to other income of $711,000 for fiscal 2005 first quarter. All of the other expense increase, $1.2 million, was due to equity in losses of affiliates. As a percent of net sales, other expense increased from 0.4% for fiscal 2005 first quarter to 2.7% for fiscal 2006 first quarter.

        As a result of the above, we had a pre-tax loss of $12.1 million for the quarter ended August 27, 2005, compared to pre-tax loss of $1.4 million for the quarter ended August 28, 2004. For the current 2006 first quarter, an income tax benefit of $4.0 million was recorded with an effective tax rate of 33.0%, as compared to an income tax benefit of $510,000 with an effective tax rate of 36.5% for the fiscal 2005 first quarter.

        As a result of the above, the net loss for the first quarter ended August 27, 2005 was $8.1 million, or $.35 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $887,000, or $.04 per basic and diluted share for the quarter ended August 28, 2004. As a percent of net sales, the net loss was 10.2% for the quarter ended August 27, 2005, compared to a net loss of 0.9% for the quarter ended August 28, 2004.

        Our working capital at August 27, 2005 was $68.8 million compared to $73.6 million at May 28, 2005. Our current ratio was 2.35 at August 27, 2005 as compared with 2.41 at May 28, 2005. Our need for working capital generally is highest in the last and first fiscal quarters ending in May and August, respectively, when egg prices are normally at seasonal lows. Seasonal borrowing needs frequently are higher during these quarters than during other fiscal quarters. We have a $35.0 million line of credit with three banks, $2.6 million of which was utilized as a standby letter of credit at August 27, 2005. Our long-term debt at August 27, 2005, including current maturities, amounted to $81.3 million, as compared to $83.0 million at May 28, 2005.

        For the thirteen weeks ended August 27, 2005, $8.2 million in net cash was used in operating activities. This compares to net cash provided of $234,000 for the same period in last fiscal year. In the current 2006 fiscal quarter, approximately $14.4 million was provided from the maturity of short-term investments and net $866,000 was provided from notes receivable and investments. Approximately $1.5 million was provided from disposal of property, plant and equipment and $1.6 million was used for purchases of property, plant and equipment. Approximately $46,000 was provided by issuance of common stock, $292,000 was used for payments of dividends on common stock and $1.7 million was used for principal payments on long-term debt. The net result of these activities was an increase in cash of approximately $5.0 million since May 28, 2005.

        Substantially all trade receivables and inventories collateralize our revolving line of credit and property, plant and equipment collateralize our long-term debt under our loan agreements with our lenders. Unless otherwise approved by our lenders, we are required by provisions of these loan agreements to (1) maintain minimum levels of working capital (ratio of not less than 1.25 to 1) and net worth (minimum of $90.0 million tangible net worth); (2) limit dividends to an aggregate amount not to exceed $500,000 per quarter (allowed if no default), capital expenditures (not to exceed depreciation for the same four fiscal quarters), lease obligations and additional long-term borrowings (total funded debt to total capitalization not to exceed 55%); and (3) maintain various current and cash-flow coverage ratios (1.25 to 1), among other restrictions. At August 27, 2005, we were in compliance with the provisions of all loan agreements. Under certain of the loan agreements, the lenders have the option to require the prepayment of any outstanding borrowings in the event we undergo a change in control.

11

        Under the terms of our Agreement with Hillandale and the Hillandale shareholders, the egg production and marketing operations to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed by us will be transferred to a new Florida limited liability company named Hillandale, LLC. The two Hillandale companies will be the initial members of Hillandale, LLC, for formation purposes. Upon the completion of an evaluation of the assets and liabilities to be acquired and assumed by us, as agreed to by the parties to the Agreement, we will purchase 51% of the Units of Membership in Hillandale, LLC. The remaining 49% of the Units of Membership in Hillandale, LLC, are to be acquired in essentially equal annual installments over a four-year period, with the purchase price of the units equal to their book value as calculated in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. Funding of the Hillandale acquisition is expected to be provided by our cash balances and borrowings under a new loan agreement that will be secured by the assets acquired. We will acquire our initial 51% interest in Hillandale, LLC, at a presently estimated cost of approximately $26 to $29 million, subject to adjustment upwards or downwards, based upon the valuations agreed upon by the parties to the Agreement. The anticipated borrowings will require waivers, to which our lenders have agreed, for the capital expenditure restriction provisions of our existing loan agreements mentioned above.

        We currently have a $2.1 million deferred tax liability due to a subsidiary’s change from a cash basis to an accrual basis taxpayer on May 29, 1988. The Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 provides that this liability is payable ratably over the 20 years beginning in fiscal 1999. However, such taxes will be due in their entirety in the first fiscal year in which there is a change in ownership control so that we no longer qualify as a “family farming corporation.” We are currently making annual payments of approximately $150,000 related to this liability. However, while these current payments reduce cash balances, payment of the $2.1 million deferred tax liability would not impact our consolidated statement of operations or stockholders’ equity, as these taxes have been accrued and are reflected on our consolidated balance sheet.

        Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards. Please refer to Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, in our Annual Report Form 10-K for the year ended May 28, 2005 for a discussion of the impact of recently issued accounting standards. There were no accounting standards issued during the quarter ended August 27, 2005 that we expect will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

         Critical Accounting Policies. We suggest that our Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, as described in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. and Subsidiaries annual report on Form10-K for the fiscal year ended May 28, 2005, be read in conjunction with this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. There have been no changes to critical accounting policies identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 28, 2005.

ITEM 3. QUANTATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES OF MARKET RISK

        There have been no material changes in the market risk reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 28, 2005.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

        Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by it in its periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Based on an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures conducted by our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, together with other financial officers, such officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has significantly affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         Except as noted below, there have been no new matters or changes to matters identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 28, 2005.

        On May 2, 2005, Cal-Maine Farms, Inc. (“Cal-Maine Farms”), one of our subsidiaries, was added as a defendant in an ongoing action in a case styled Leslie Carroll Et al vs. Alpharma, Inc in the Circuit Court of Washington County, Arkansas. There are approximately 80 plaintiffs in the action. The plaintiffs complain of a wide variety of medical problems which they attribute to the use of chicken manure and litter throughout Washington County, Arkansas. The theory of liability is the same as in the McWhorter suit previously reported in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and summarized below. An Answer has been filed, but no discovery has begun and no trial date been set. At this stage it is impossible to evaluate the potential exposure, if any, of Cal-Maine Farms to damages in this suit.

        On February 3, 2004, Cal-Maine Farms was served with process in a civil complaint filed in the Circuit Court of Washington County, Arkansas, on behalf of Keith McWhorter and Patsy McWhorter, individually and as next friends and guardians of Hunter McWhorter. Other defendants include Alpharma Inc., Alpharma Animal Health Co., Cargill, Incorporated, George’s Farms, Inc., Peterson Farms, Inc., Simmons Foods, Inc., Simmons Poultry Farms, Inc., and Tyson Foods, Inc., each of which is engaged in the broiler business, and an individual.

        The McWhorter suit alleges that the plaintiffs have suffered medical problems resulting from living near land upon which “litter” from the defendants’ flocks was spread as fertilizer. The suit focuses on a feed ingredient that contains arsenic and is alleged to be in the litter that was spread. We do not use this particular feed ingredient in our shell egg production feed formulation. The suit addresses conditions alleged to exist in Washington County. The suit seeks unspecified actual damages and requests unspecified punitive damages. An answer has been filed on behalf of Cal-Maine Farms and no discovery has taken place. At this stage, it is impossible to evaluate the potential exposure, if any, of Cal-Maine Farms to damages in this suit.

13

        On June 18, 2005, the State of Oklahoma filed suit, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Oklahoma, against a number of companies, including us and Cal-Maine Farms. We and Cal-Maine Farms filed our joint answer and motion to dismiss the suit on October 3, 2005. The State of Oklahoma claims that through the disposal of chicken litter the defendants have polluted the Illinois River Watershed. This watershed provides water to eastern Oklahoma. The Complaint seeks injunctive relief and monetary damages. The parties participated in a series of mediation meetings without success. It is anticipated that the first substantive actions will be an effort by the State of Oklahoma to obtain injunctive relief curtailing the use of chicken litter as a fertilizer in the watershed. We no longer have any operations in the watershed. Accordingly, we do not anticipate that we will be materially affected by this aspect of the litigation. We are not able at present to provide an opinion regarding the ultimate resolution of this action.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

        On October 6, 2005, we issued a press release announcing our financial results for the quarter ended August 27, 2005. A copy of our press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 10-Q Quarterly Report.
