Kingdom Capital Advisors stated the following regarding United Natural Foods, Inc. (NYSE:UNFI) in its fourth quarter 2025 investor letter:

"Our largest Q4 detractors were United Natural Foods, Inc. (NYSE:UNFI) and Total Site Solutions, Inc. (TSSI). For FY25, our top contributors were UNFI and NVRI. Despite UNFI's December investor day where management laid out their path to $800M EBITDA by FY28, the stock pulled back on weakening investor sentiment. Presumably, some investors were hoping to hear more details around long-term capital allocation. We view this as temporary noise relative to their fundamental progress, and we were satisfied that UNFI subsequently pointed towards prioritizing stock buybacks after debt paydown progresses."
