PRESS RELEASE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Cagle's Inc. Announces Results for First Quarter Ended July 01, 2006

 And the Sale of Interest in Cagle’s Keystone LLC

Cagle’s Inc. reported a first quarter fiscal year 2007 loss of ($1.76) million or ($.37) per diluted share as compared with a net income of $1.44 million or $.30 per diluted share for the first three months of fiscal 2006.

First quarter poultry revenues decreased 7.4%; considerably less than overall poultry markets which declined 21% relative to the first quarter of fiscal 2006. Leg quarter and drumstick markets were more than 30% lower than this period last year influenced by the continued lack of international demand (due in most part from the impact of Avian Influenza outbreaks in Asia and Eastern Europe). As of this release, export markets showed positive gains with leg quarter prices improving by 40% versus the first quarter 2007 average. Cagle’s decreased slaughter production in the fall of 2005 by 4.4% and this summer our competitors followed suit announcing cutbacks ranging from 3% to 4.3%. We believe these cutbacks will result in stable to improving poultry prices for the balance of this calendar year.

Cagle’s cost of sales per pound decreased 6.41% despite escalating energy and transportation costs. The cost of feed ingredients remained essentially flat with a .3% increase from the first quarter of 2006. Both corn and soy crops appear to be in position to provide our industry with reasonable feed cost continuing on through the end of this fiscal year. However, the cost of corn may be impacted in future periods due to its increasing use in the making of ethanol, an alternative energy source. If the Company continues to constrain cost of sales and export markets remain stable, we expect to experience improving earnings during the remaining quarters of fiscal 2007.

Additionally, on August 1, 2006,  Cagle’s, Inc. accepted an offer from Grow-Out Holdings, LLC to purchase the company’s thirty percent (30%) interest in Cagle’s Keystone LLC.  Grow-Out Holdings, LLC owns the other seventy percent (70%) of Cagle’s Keystone LLC.

The purchase price is $28,000,000 cash.  The parties will enter into a purchase agreement containing standard representations and warranties

Cagle's Inc.
