NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(Dollars in thousands, except where noted and per share data)
Note 1 — Basis of Presentation
As used herein, unless the context otherwise indicates, the terms “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our” or “our Company” collectively refer to John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. and JBSS Properties, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in 1979 as the successor by merger to an Illinois corporation that was incorporated in 1959. Our fiscal year ends on the final Thursday of June each year, and typically consists of fifty-two weeks (four thirteen week quarters). References herein to fiscal 2011 are to the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011 and will consist of fifty-three weeks (the fourth quarter consisting of fourteen weeks). References herein to fiscal 2010 are to the fiscal year ended June 24, 2010. References herein to the first quarter of fiscal 2011 are to the quarter ended September 23, 2010. References herein to the first quarter of fiscal 2010 are to the quarter ended September 24, 2009.
In the opinion of our management, the accompanying statements fairly present the consolidated statements of operations, consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of cash flows, and reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of our management, are necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the interim periods.
The interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. The balance sheet as of June 24, 2010 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. We suggest that you read these financial statements in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2010 Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 24, 2010.
Certain amounts were reclassified from “Accounts receivable” to “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” as of June 24, 2010 and September 24, 2009. Amounts of $2,180 and $1,227 were reclassified as of June 24, 2010 and September 24, 2009, respectively.
Note 2 — Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or market. Inventories consist of the following:

Note 3 — Acquisition of Orchard Valley Harvest, Inc.
On May 21, 2010, we acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities (the “Acquisition”) of Orchard Valley Harvest., Inc. (“OVH”) for a purchase price of $32,887, $115 of which was paid as part of a final working capital review that was performed during the first quarter of fiscal 2011. The purchase price may be increased up to $10,079, contingent upon performance of the acquired business for the 2010 and 2011 calendar years. The Acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 805, Business Combinations. As a result of the Acquisition, we expect to (i) expand our portfolio and market presence into the store perimeter beyond the traditional nut aisles, (ii) establish a platform to build a truly national produce nut program, and (iii) broaden our product breadth and production capabilities.
The initial OVH purchase price of $32,772 (which excluded the $115 paid in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 as a part of the final working capital review) was initially allocated to the fair values of certain assets acquired and certain liabilities assumed and reported on our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 24, 2010. We finalized the allocation of the purchase price of $32,887 (which includes the $115 paid in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 as part of the final working capital review) during the first quarter of fiscal 2011 as follows:

Goodwill, which is tax deductible, arises from intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition and expected synergies from combining operations of OVH and our Company. There were no material contingencies recognized or unrecognized associated with the Acquisition.
Under terms of the Purchase Agreement by and between us and OVH dated May 5, 2010 (the “Purchase Agreement”), future consideration from $0 up to $10,079 may be paid in addition to the $32,887 cash purchase price paid. This future consideration is contingent upon the future sales performance of the acquired business in the 2010 and 2011 calendar years. The following table summarizes the potential earnouts to be paid under terms of the Purchase Agreement. Net retail sales include packaged sales to the consumer distribution channel. Net sales are comprised of net retail sales plus bulk sales of products.
         
    Earnout  
Earnout Measurement   Payment  
Calendar 2010 net retail sales greater than $25,500

The earn-out liability recorded as of June 24, 2010 represents the fair value of the expected future payments, which was estimated by applying the income approach. The fair value is based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market, which ASC 820 refers to as Level 3 inputs. Key assumptions included a discount rate of 3.25% and a probability adjusted level of future sales performance levels for each periodic performance benchmark that triggers an amount payable under the agreement. Due to the relatively short timeframe for the earnout payments, the sensitivity of the above amounts is almost entirely dependent on the probability factors. We adjusted the probability factors at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2011 based upon strong net sales of OVH products during the first quarter of fiscal 2011 and recorded $620 of administrative expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2011.
We have established (i) a current liability of $5,021 and $4,411 as of September 23, 2010 and June 24, 2010, respectively, and (ii) a long-term liability of $1,436 and $1,426 as of September 23, 2010 and June 24, 2010, respectively. This expected fair value will be re-measured on a quarterly basis through the quarter ending December 29, 2011. Any quarterly change in the expected fair value will require an adjustment to the contingent consideration with the corresponding charge or credit to income from operations for that quarter.
NOTE 4 — Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Our recorded goodwill of $5,662 and $5,454 as of September 23, 2010 and June 24, 2010 relates wholly to the OVH acquisition on May 21, 2010. The $208 increase from June 24, 2010 to September 23, 2010 relates to final working capital adjustments during the first quarter of fiscal 2011.

Net intangible assets
  $ 15,499     $ 16,121     $ 462  
 
                 
Customer relationships and the non-compete agreement relate wholly to the Acquisition. Customer relationships are being amortized on a straight line basis over seven years. The non-compete agreement is being amortized based upon the expected pattern of cash flow annual benefit over a five year period. The brand name consists primarily of the Fisher brand name, which we acquired in a 1995 acquisition. The Fisher brand name will become fully amortized in fiscal 2011. The remainder of the brand name relates to the Acquisition and is being amortized on a straight line basis over five years.
Note 5 — Primary Financing Facilities
On February 7, 2008, we entered into a Credit Agreement with a bank group (the “Bank Lenders”) providing a $117.5 million revolving loan commitment and letter of credit subfacility (the “Credit Facility”). As of September 23, 2010, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility, as amended. As of September 23, 2010, we had $71.6 million of available credit under the Credit Facility. We would still be in compliance with all restrictive covenants under the Credit Facility if this entire amount were borrowed.
Also on February 7, 2008, we entered into a Loan Agreement with an insurance company (the “Mortgage Lender”) providing us with two term loans, one in the amount of $36.0 million (“Tranche A”) and the other in the amount of $9.0 million (“Tranche B”), for an aggregate amount of $45.0 million (the “Mortgage Facility”). As of September 23, 2010, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Mortgage Facility.
Note 6 — Income Taxes
At the beginning of fiscal year 2011, we had approximately $0.7 million of state (net of the federal effect) net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards for income tax purposes. The state NOL carryforwards relate to losses generated during the years ended June 26, 2008, June 28, 2007 and June 29, 2006, which generally have a carryforward period of approximately twelve years before expiration. We believe that the state NOL carryforwards will be fully utilized before expiration.
As of September 23, 2010, unrecognized tax benefits and accrued interest and penalties were not material. We recognize interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in the income tax (benefit) expense caption in the statement of operations. We file income tax returns with federal and state tax authorities within the United States of America. The Internal Revenue Service has completed auditing our tax return for fiscal 2004, and there was no material impact to our Company. The Illinois Department of Revenue has completed auditing our tax returns through fiscal 2007, and there was no material impact to our Company. No other tax jurisdictions are material to us.
As of September 23, 2010, there have been no material changes to the amount of unrecognized tax benefits. We do not anticipate that total unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the future.

Note 7 — Earnings Per Common Share
Earnings per common share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock and Class A Common Stock outstanding during the period. The following table presents the reconciliation of the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in computing earnings per share:
                 
    For the Quarter Ended  
    September 23,     September 24,  
    2010     2009  
Weighted average number of shares outstanding — basic
    10,657,282       10,621,842  
Effect of dilutive securities:
               
Stock options and restricted stock units
    108,284       42,883  
 
           
Weighted average number of shares outstanding — diluted
    10,765,566       10,664,725  
 
           
112,625 anti-dilutive stock options with a weighted average exercise price of $17.52 were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended September 23, 2010. 288,125 anti-dilutive stock options with a weighted average exercise price of $13.78 were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended September 24, 2009.
Note 8 — Incentive Plans
At our annual meeting of stockholders on October 30, 2008, our stockholders approved a new equity incentive plan (the “2008 Equity Incentive Plan”) pursuant to which awards of options and stock-based awards may be made to members of the Board of Directors, employees and other individuals providing services to our Company. A total of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock are authorized for grants of awards, which may be in the form of options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, Common Stock or dividends and dividend equivalents. A maximum of 500,000 of the 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock may be used for grants of Common Stock, restricted stock and restricted stock units. Additionally, awards of options or stock appreciation rights are limited to 100,000 shares annually to any single individual, and awards of Common Stock, restricted stock or restricted stock units are limited to 50,000 shares annually to any single individual. During the second quarter of fiscal 2009, 46,500 restricted stock units were awarded to employees and members of the Board of Directors. During the second quarter of fiscal 2010, 61,000 restricted stock units were awarded to employees and members of the Board of Directors. During the first quarter of fiscal 2011, 13,500 restricted stock units were awarded to employees. The vesting period is three years for awards to employees and one year for awards to non-employee members of the Board of Directors. We are recognizing expenses over the applicable vesting period based upon the fair market value of our Common Stock at the grant date. As of September 23, 2010, all 121,000 restricted unit awards remain outstanding, 10,000 of which have vested, with a weighted average remaining life of 1.6 years. Also, 1,000, 2,500 and 1,500 stock options were granted during the first quarter of fiscal 2011, fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009, respectively, under the 2008 Equity Incentive Plan. The exercise price of the options was determined as set forth in the 2008 Equity Incentive Plan by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors, and must be at least the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. Except as set forth in the 2008 Equity Incentive Plan, options expire upon termination of employment or directorship. The options granted under the 2008 Equity Incentive Plan are exercisable 25% annually commencing on the first anniversary date of grant and become fully exercisable on the fourth anniversary date of grant. Options generally will expire no later than ten years after the date on which they are granted. We issue new shares of Common Stock upon exercise of stock options. Additionally, 10,000 stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) were granted to a marketing consultant during the first quarter of fiscal 2011. The SARs vest over a three year period and have a ten year term. As of September 23, 2010, 864,000 shares of Common Stock remain authorized for future grants of awards.
The 2008 Equity Incentive Plan replaced a stock option plan approved at our annual meeting of stockholders on October 28, 1998 (the “1998 Equity Incentive Plan”) pursuant to which awards of options and stock-based awards could be made. There were 700,000 shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance to certain key employees and “outside directors” (i.e., directors who are not employees of our Company). The exercise price of the options was determined as set forth in the 1998 Equity Incentive Plan by the Board of Directors and was at least the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. Except as set forth in the 1998 Equity Incentive Plan, options expire upon termination of employment or directorship. The options granted under the 1998 Equity Incentive Plan are exercisable 25% annually commencing on the first anniversary date of grant and become fully exercisable on the fourth anniversary date of grant. Options generally will expire no later than ten years after the date on which they are granted. We issue new shares of Common Stock upon exercise of stock options issued pursuant to the 1998 Equity Incentive Plan. Through fiscal 2007, all of the options granted, except those granted to outside directors, were intended to qualify as incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code.

Effective fiscal 2008, all option grants are non-qualified awards. The 1998 Equity Incentive Plan terminated on September 1, 2008. However, all outstanding options issued pursuant to the 1998 Equity Incentive Plan will continue to be governed by the terms of the 1998 Equity Incentive Plan.
The following is a summary of stock option activity for the first quarter of fiscal 2011:

    266,690     $ 12.32       4.08     $ 702  
 
                       
The weighted average grant date fair value of stock options granted during the first quarter of fiscal 2011 was $6.71. No stock options were granted during the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The total intrinsic value of options exercised was $10 and $27 for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 and first quarter of fiscal 2010, respectively.
Compensation expense attributable to stock-based compensation during the first quarters of fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2010 was $152 and $87, respectively. As of September 23, 2010, there was $843 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested, share-based compensation arrangements granted under our stock-based compensation plans. We expect to recognize that cost over a weighted average period of 0.98 years.
The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:
         
    Quarter Ended  
    September 23,  
    2010  
Weighted average expected stock-price volatility
    43.60 %
Average risk-free rate
    2.24 %
Average dividend yield
    0.00 %
Weighted average expected option life (in years)
    6.25  
Forfeiture percentage
    5.00 %
The 10,000 SARs granted during the first quarter of fiscal 2011 are being accounted for as a liability award whereby the fair value is measured at the end of each reporting period. We are using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine the fair value of the SARs. We recognized $10 of expense during the first quarter of fiscal 2011. The fair value of the SARs was determined using the following assumptions:
         
    September 23,  
    2010  
Weighted average expected stock-price volatility
    49.38 %
Average risk-free rate
    2.49 %
Average dividend yield
    0.00 %
Weighted average expected remaining life (in years)
    9.75  
Forfeiture percentage
    0.00 %
Virtually all of our salaried employees participate in our Sanfilippo Value Added Plan (“SVA Plan”) which is a non-equity incentive plan (an economic value added based program). We accrue expense related to the SVA Plan in the annual period that the economic performance underlying such performance occurs. This method of expense recognition properly matches the expense associated with improved economic performance with the period the improved performance occurs on a systematic and rational basis. The amount accrued includes amounts that will be paid currently and if current results exceed target, amounts that are payable in future periods, in the manner such payments are permitted by the provisions of the SVA Plan.

Note 9 — Retirement Plan
On August 2, 2007, our Compensation, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee approved a restated Supplemental Retirement Plan (the “SERP”) for certain of our named executive officers and key employees, effective as of August 25, 2005. The purpose of the SERP is to provide an unfunded, non-qualified deferred compensation benefit upon retirement, disability or death to certain executive officers and key employees. The monthly benefit is based upon each individual’s earnings and his or her number of years of service. Administrative expenses include the following net periodic benefit costs:

Note 11 — Comprehensive Income (Loss)
We account for comprehensive income (loss) in accordance with ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income”. This topic establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income (loss) and its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. The topic requires that all components of comprehensive income (loss) be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements.
Note 12 Commitments and Contingencies
We are a party to various lawsuits, proceedings and other matters arising out of the conduct of our business. It is management’s opinion that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material effect upon our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Note 13 Product Recall
On March 19, 2010, we announced a voluntary recall of certain bulk and packaged snack mix and cashew items containing black pepper as a precautionary measure because the product may be contaminated with salmonella. Our recall was a follow-up to the voluntary recall of black pepper announced by Mincing Overseas Spice Company, a supplier to us through a distributor, on March 5, 2010. As of September 23, 2010 and June 24, 2010, our accrued liability for estimated product recall costs related to black pepper was $180.
During the time period of March 31, 2009 through April 8, 2009, we voluntarily recalled roasted inshell pistachios, raw shelled pistachios and mixed nuts containing raw shelled pistachios. The recall was made as a precautionary measure because such products may be contaminated with salmonella. Our recall was a follow-up to the industry-wide voluntary recall of pistachios announced by Setton Pistachio of Terra Bella, Inc. (“Setton”), one of our pistachio suppliers. We do not currently anticipate any further recalls related to purchases of pistachios from Setton.
Our total net costs associated with the recall, which were all recorded in fiscal 2009, were approximately $2,400. As of September 23, 2010, June 24, 2010, and September 24, 2009, our accrued liability for estimated product recall costs related to pistachios was $346, $346 and $394, respectively.
We currently intend to pursue the recovery of our recall costs from Setton, Setton’s insurance and our own insurance; however, we can provide no assurance as to the likelihood, extent (if any) or timing of any such recovery.
Note 14 — Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of our fixed rate debt as of September 23, 2010, including current maturities, was estimated to approximate the carrying value of $30,400. The fair value of the fixed rate debt was determined using a market approach, which estimates fair value based on companies with similar credit quality and size of debt issuances for similar terms.
The fair value of the contingent consideration to be paid under terms of the OVH purchase agreement was determined using probability factors for specific earnout measurements discounted by our incremental short-term borrowing rate. Due to the relatively short timeframe of the earnout period (through calendar year 2011), the sensitivity of the determination of the fair value of the contingent consideration is almost entirely dependent upon the probability factors. Under the fair value measurement and disclosure provisions of ASC 820 for Level 3 inputs, we are required to re-measure the fair value of the contingent consideration on a quarterly basis and disclose the effect of the measurements on earnings for each quarterly period. See Note 3 for the effect of the remeasurement as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2011.
The carrying amounts of our other financial instruments also approximate their estimated fair values.
Note 15 Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R),” (“SFAS 167”) which amended the consolidation guidance applicable to variable interest entities (“VIEs”). The SFAS 167 amendments are effective as of the first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, and for interim periods within that first annual reporting period. SFAS 167 replaces Interpretation 46(R)’s risks-and-rewards-based quantitative approach to consolidation with a more qualitative approach that requires a reporting entity to have some economic exposure to a VIE along with “the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the entity.” The FASB also reminded its constituents that only substantive terms, transactions, and arrangements should affect the accounting conclusions under SFAS 167. The SFAS 167 provisions were included in Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-17, “Topic 810 — Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities,” (“ASU 2009-17”). The implementation of ASU 2009-17 had no material impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
As used herein, unless the context otherwise indicates, the terms “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our” or “our Company” collectively refer to John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. and JBSS Properties, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in 1979 as the successor by merger to an Illinois corporation that was incorporated in 1959. Our fiscal year ends on the final Thursday of June each year, and typically consists of fifty-two weeks (four thirteen week quarters). References herein to fiscal 2011 are to the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011 and will consist of fifty-three weeks (the fourth quarter consisting of fourteen weeks). References herein to fiscal 2010 are to the fiscal year ended June 24, 2010. References herein to the first quarter of fiscal 2011 are to the quarter ended September 23, 2010. References herein to the first quarter of fiscal 2010 are to the quarter ended September 24, 2009. The following discussion and analyses should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
We are one of the leading processors and marketers of peanuts, pecans, cashews, walnuts, almonds and other nuts in the United States. These nuts are sold under a variety of private labels and under the Fisher, Orchard Valley Harvest, and Sunshine Country brand names. We also market and distribute, and in most cases manufacture or process, a diverse product line of food and snack products, including peanut butter, candy and confections, natural snacks and trail mixes, sunflower seeds, dried fruit, corn snacks, sesame sticks and other sesame snack products. We distribute our products in the consumer, industrial, food service, contract packaging and export distribution channels.
Our business is seasonal. Demand for peanut and tree nut products is highest during the last four months of the calendar year. Pecans and walnuts, two of our principal raw materials, are primarily purchased between August and February and are processed throughout the year until the following harvest. As a result of this seasonality, our personnel requirements rise during the last four months of the calendar year. Our working capital requirements generally peak during the third quarter of our fiscal year.
We developed a five-year strategic plan during fiscal 2009 to help us achieve long-term profitable growth. Our long-term goals include (i) attaining recognition by global retailers, food service providers and consumers as a world class nut partner, (ii) attaining recognition as a high quality, well-run food business that utilizes our vast industry knowledge and innovation to achieve high growth and profitability, (iii) meeting the demands of nut consumers throughout the world, (iv) profitably increasing our market share in private brands by using innovation valued by our customers, (v) substantially increasing our presence in the food service distribution channel, (vi) providing the best total solution to retailers by increasing our presence beyond the traditional nut aisles of stores, (vii) utilizing our Fisher name recognition as a foundation for targeted sustained growth via value-added snack and baking products, and (viii) utilizing acquisitions, joint ventures and/or strategic alliances as they present themselves to grow our business and expand into new target markets. We have executed portions of this strategy during fiscal 2010 and the first quarter of fiscal 2011, including a significant increase in private label business at a customer and consummating the acquisition of certain assets of Orchard Valley Harvest, Inc. (“OVH”), which gives us a significant presence in the produce section of supermarkets.
We face a number of challenges in the future. Specific challenges, among others, include: substantial increases in commodity costs, including as a result of increased demand for pecans and walnuts in China, intensified competition, integrating the acquired OVH business into our operations and executing our strategic plan. We will focus on seeking additional profitable business to utilize the additional production capacity at our facility in Elgin, Illinois that houses our primary manufacturing operations and corporate headquarters (the “Elgin Site”). We expect to be able to continue to devote more funds to promote and advertise our Fisher brand in order to attempt to regain market share that has been lost in recent years. However, this effort may be challenging because, among other things, consumer preferences have shifted towards lower-priced private label products from higher-priced branded products as a result of current economic conditions. In addition, private label products generally provide lower margins than branded products. Also, we will continue to face the ongoing challenges specific to our business such as food safety and regulatory issues and the maintenance and growth of our customer base. See the information referenced in Part II, Item 1A — “Risk Factors”.

QUARTERLY HIGHLIGHTS
Our net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 increased by $20.0 million, or 15.8%, to $146.8 million from $126.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The increase in net sales came mainly from a 10.5% increase in overall net average selling prices and a 4.8% increase in sales volume, as measured in pounds shipped to customers. The average selling price increase occurred due to higher acquisition costs for all major commodities except peanuts. We had higher net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2010 in all distribution channels. We experienced sales volume increases for the same time comparison in all distribution channels except export. Approximately 50% of the net sales and sales volume increases in the consumer distribution channel occurred due to sales related to our acquisition of certain assets of OVH during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010.
Our gross profit margin, as a percentage of net sales, decreased from 18.8% for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 to 14.0% for the first quarter of fiscal 2011, and gross profit decreased by $3.3 million. Gross profit margins declined significantly on sales of walnuts and pecans because of the need to purchase high cost shelled walnuts and pecans in the spot market during the current quarter. The prices for shelled walnuts and pecans during the current quarter were unusually high due to low inventories in the industry. Shelled walnut purchases were made to supply an increase in sales volume with existing customers that in many cases exceeded forecasted volume by a considerable amount. Shelled pecan purchases were made during the current quarter to supply new pecan business that started shipping in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 and to supplement a shortfall in inshell pecan purchases from the 2009 crop due to the unprecedented amount of inshell pecans that were exported to China over the last twelve months. Gross profit margin also declined on sales of cashews because of significantly higher acquisition costs. Our gross profit and gross profit margins will continue to be negatively affected by the significant increases in most of our key commodities unless and until we are able to secure adequate sales price increases from our customers. There can be no assurance that we will be able to implement sales price increases or that sales price increases actually obtained will be in an amount sufficient to offset our increased commodity costs. If we are unable to secure adequate sales price increases from our customers, it may have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
We successfully converted the OVH business operation to our corporate information systems during the first quarter of fiscal 2011. We continue to integrate all OVH activities with the rest of our business to achieve the greatest efficiencies possible. We recorded a $0.6 million charge to operating expenses during the first quarter of fiscal 2011 to increase our estimate of the liability to be paid as additional consideration to the acquisition price if OVH related sales exceed certain targets.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Sales
Our net sales increased by 15.8% to $146.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 from $126.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The increase in net sales came mainly from a 10.5% increase in overall net average selling prices and a 4.8% increase in sales volume, as measured in pounds shipped to customers. The average selling price increase occurred due to higher acquisition costs for all major commodities except peanuts. We had higher net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2010 in all distribution channels. We experienced sales volume increases for the same time comparison in all distribution channels except export. Approximately 50% of the net sales and sales volume increases in the consumer distribution channel occurred due to sales related to our acquisition of certain assets of OVH during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010.

Net sales in the consumer distribution channel increased by 15.7% in dollars and 4.4% in volume in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2010. Private label consumer sales volume decreased by 1.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2010, despite contribution from OVH, primarily due to (i) losses of $3.4 million and $3.2 million in business at two former private label customers, and (ii) a $2.4 million reduction in business at a major customer. These decreases were partially offset by a $5.3 million increase in business at a major customer. Fisher brand sales volume was virtually unchanged for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2010. Marginal increases in Fisher snack nut business were offset by decreases in Fisher baking nut business.
Net sales in the industrial distribution channel increased by 25.6% in dollars and 3.3% in sales volume in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The sales volume increase is primarily due to higher almond sales partially offset by lower pecan sales mainly from a limited supply of pecans available for the industrial distribution channel.
Net sales in the food service distribution channel increased by 20.5% in dollars and 13.4% in volume in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The sales volume increase is primarily due to higher peanut butter sales at food service distributors.
Net sales in the contract packaging distribution channel increased by 5.9% in dollars and 3.3% in volume in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The sales volume increase is due to increased business with our major contract packaging customer.
Net sales in the export distribution channel increased by 1.0% in dollars but decreased 2.5% in volume in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The decrease in volume is due primarily to lower almond sales to our industrial export customers.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 decreased 14.0% to $20.5 million from $23.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2010. Gross profit margin decreased to 14.0% of net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 from 18.8% for the first quarter of fiscal 2010. Gross profit margins declined significantly on sales of walnuts and pecans because of the need to purchase high cost shelled walnuts and pecans in the spot market during the current quarter. The prices for shelled walnuts and pecans during the current quarter were unusually high due to low inventories in the industry. Shelled walnut purchases were made to supply an increase in sales volume with existing customers that in many cases exceeded forecasted volume by a considerable amount. Shelled pecan purchases were made during the current quarter to supply new pecan business that started shipping in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 and to supplement a shortfall in inshell pecan purchases from the 2009 crop due to the unprecedented amount of inshell pecans that were exported to China over the last twelve months. Gross profit margin also declined on sales of cashews because of significantly higher acquisition costs. Our gross profit and gross profit margins will continue to be negatively affected by the significant increases in most of our key commodities unless and until we are able to secure adequate sales price increases from our customers. There can be no assurance that we will be able to implement sales price increases or that sales price increases actually obtained will be in a amount sufficient to offset our increased commodity costs. If we are unable to secure adequate sales price increases from our customers, it may have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Operating Expenses
Selling and administrative expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 increased to 11.6% of net sales from 11.2% of net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2010. Selling expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 were $10.2 million, an increase of $1.5 million, or 17.0%, from the first quarter of fiscal 2010. This increase is primarily due to (i) a $0.9 million increase in marketing and advertising expenditures, (ii) a $0.6 million increase in freight costs, and (iii) a $0.3 million increase in compensation expense. These increases in selling expenses were partially offset by a $0.5 million reduction in incentive compensation expense due to less favorable operating results. We accrue expense related to our non-equity incentive plan (an economic value added based program) in the annual period that the economic performance underlying such performance occurs. This method of expense recognition properly matches the expense associated with improved economic performance with the period the improved performance occurs on a systematic and rational basis. The amount accrued includes amounts that will be paid currently and if current results exceed target, amounts that are payable in future periods, in the manner such payments are permitted by the provisions of the plan agreement. In certain circumstances, forfeiture of the amounts that are payable can occur. Administrative expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 were $6.9 million, an increase of $1.4 million, or 25.9%, from the first quarter of fiscal 2010. This increase is primarily due to (i) a $0.6 million increase in the projected earnout payments related to the OVH acquisition, (ii) a $0.5 million in amortization related to OVH intangibles, (iii) a $0.3 million increase in contingency reserves, and (iv) a $0.3 million increase in compensation expense. These increases in administrative expenses were partially offset by a $0.9 million reduction in incentive compensation expense due to less favorable operating results.
Income from Operations
Due to the factors discussed above, income from operations decreased to $3.5 million, or 2.4% of net sales, for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 from $9.7 million, or 7.7% of net sales, for the first quarter of fiscal 2010.
Interest Expense
Interest expense was $1.4 million for both the first quarter of fiscal 2011 and first quarter of fiscal 2010.
Rental and Miscellaneous Expense, Net
Net rental and miscellaneous expense was $0.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to $0.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The reduction in net expense was due to a $0.1 million increase in rental income for space at the office building on the Elgin site.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $0.7 million, or 37.7% of income before income taxes, for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to $3.1 million, or 39.3% for the first quarter of fiscal 2010.
Net Income
Net income was $1.1 million, or $0.10 per common share (basic and diluted), for the first quarter of fiscal 2011, compared to $4.8 million, or $0.45 per common share (basic and diluted), for the first quarter of fiscal 2010.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
General
The primary uses of cash are to fund our current operations, fulfill contractual obligations, pursue our strategic plan, repay indebtedness and potentially pay contingent earn-out liabilities. Also, various uncertainties could result in additional uses of cash. The primary sources of cash are results of operations and availability under our Credit Facility (as defined below). We continue to actively manage our working capital as a result of the current economic situation. We anticipate that expected net cash flow generated from operations and amounts available pursuant to the Credit Facility will be sufficient to fund our operations for the next twelve months. The increase in our available credit under our Credit Facility due to our improved financial performance in fiscal 2009 and fiscal 2010 allowed us to consummate the OVH acquisition, devote more funds to promote our products, especially our Fisher brand, and explore other growth strategies outlined in our strategic plan, including further acquisitions. To be consummated, any future acquisitions would generally require the approval of our lenders under the Credit Facility.
Cash flows from operating activities have historically been driven by net income but are also significantly influenced by inventory requirements, which can change based upon fluctuations in both quantities and market prices of the various nuts we buy and sell. Current market trends in nut prices and crop estimates also impact nut procurement.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $5.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to $24.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2010. This decrease is primarily due to an approximately 47% increase in the weighted average purchase cost for commodities for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2010. We anticipate that increased commodity costs will continue to negatively impact our net cash provided by operating activities throughout the remainder of fiscal 2011.
We repaid $1.0 million of long-term debt during the first quarter of fiscal 2011, $0.8 million of which was related to the Mortgage Facility. The net decrease in our Credit Facility was $3.6 million from June 24, 2010 to September 23, 2010. This decrease was less than the $18.2 million decrease experienced during the first quarter of fiscal 2010 due to the significant increase in our weighted average purchase cost for commodities.
Total inventories were $115.8 million at September 23, 2010, an increase of $1.4 million, or 1.2%, from the balance at June 24, 2010, and an increase of $16.3 million, or 16.4%, from the balance at September 24, 2009. The slight increase from June 24, 2010 to September 23, 2010 is primarily due to significantly higher commodity costs offset by lower quantities on hand due to the timing of crop receipts. The 16.4% increase from September 24, 2009 to September 23, 2010 occurred despite a 16.1% reduction in pounds in inventory again due to significantly higher commodity costs. The reduction in pounds occurred despite the inclusion of OVH inventory as of September 23, 2010.
Net accounts receivable were $47.2 million at September 23, 2010, an increase of $7.3 million, or 18.3%, from the balance at June 24, 2010, and an increase of $13.0 million, or 38.1%, from the balance at September 24, 2009. The increase in net accounts receivable from June 24, 2010 to September 23, 2010 is due primarily to higher sales in the month of September 2010 compared to June 2010 due to the seasonality in our business and higher average selling prices. The increase in net accounts receivable from September 24, 2009 to September 23, 2010 is due to higher sales in September 2010 compared to September 2009 due largely to OVH sales and higher average selling prices. Accounts receivable allowances were $3.3 million, $2.1 million and $2.9 million at September 23, 2010, June 24, 2010 and September 24, 2009, respectively. The increase in accounts receivable allowances at September 23, 2010 compared to June 24, 2010 and September 23, 2009 basically corresponds to the higher monthly sales in September 2010 compared to June 2010 and September 2009.
Current economic conditions may continue to adversely impact demand for consumer products. These conditions could, among other things, have a material adverse effect on the cash received from our operations. See Part II, Item 1A — “Risk Factors”.
Real Estate Matters
In August 2008, we completed the consolidation of our Chicago-based facilities into the Elgin Site. As part of the facility consolidation project, on April 15, 2005, we closed on the $48.0 million purchase of the Elgin Site. The Elgin Site includes both an office building and a warehouse, and affords us increased production capacity, such that we are currently able to offer our services to existing and new customers on an expanded basis. We leased 41.5% of the office building back to the seller for a three year period which ended in April 2008. The seller did not exercise its option to renew its lease and vacated the office building. Accordingly, we are currently attempting to find replacement tenant(s) for the space that was rented by the seller of the Elgin Site. Until replacement tenant(s) are found, we will not receive the benefit of rental income associated with such space. Approximately 75% of the office building is currently vacant. There can be no assurance that we will be able to lease the unoccupied space and further capital

18

expenditures may be necessary to lease the remaining space, including the space previously rented by the seller of the Elgin Site.
On March 28, 2006, JBSS Properties, LLC acquired title by quitclaim deed to the site that was originally purchased in Elgin, Illinois (the “Old Elgin Site”) for our facility consolidation project and JBSS Properties, LLC entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the City of Elgin (the “City”). Under the terms of the Agreement, the City assigned to us the City’s remaining rights and obligations under a development agreement entered into by and among our Company, certain related party partnerships and the City (the “Development Agreement”). We subsequently entered into a sales contract with a potential buyer of the Old Elgin Site. The sales contract was terminated as the potential buyer was unable to secure financing. While the Old Elgin Site is available for sale and we are currently actively searching for new potential buyers, we cannot ensure that a sale will occur in the next twelve months. The Mortgage Facility is secured, in part, by the Old Elgin Site. We must obtain the consent of the Mortgage Lender prior to the sale of the Old Elgin Site. A portion of the Old Elgin Site contains an office building (which we began renting during the third quarter of fiscal 2007) that may or may not be included in any future sale. Our total costs under the Development Agreement were $6.8 million as of September 23, 2010, June 24, 2010 and September 24, 2009, (i) $5.6 million of which is recorded as a component of “Property, Plant and Equipment”, and (ii) $1.2 million of which is recorded as “Rental Investment Property”. We have reviewed the assets under the Development Agreement that are available for sale for potential impairment and concluded that the current fair value is not less than the carrying value.
Financing Arrangements
On February 7, 2008, we entered into a Credit Agreement with a bank group (the “Bank Lenders”) providing a $117.5 million revolving loan commitment and letter of credit subfacility (the “Credit Facility”). Also on February 7, 2008, we entered into a Loan Agreement with an insurance company (the “Mortgage Lender”) providing us with two term loans, one in the amount of $36.0 million (“Tranche A”) and the other in the amount of $9.0 million (“Tranche B”), for an aggregate amount of $45.0 million (the “Mortgage Facility”). The Credit Facility and Mortgage Facility replaced our prior revolving credit facility (the “Prior Credit Facility”) and long-term financing facility (the “Prior Note Agreement”). We currently expect to be in compliance with all financial covenants under the Credit Facility and Mortgage Facility for the foreseeable future and we currently have full access to our new financing.
The Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of our assets other than real property and fixtures. The Mortgage Facility is secured by mortgages on essentially all of our owned real property located in Elgin, Illinois, Gustine, California and Garysburg, North Carolina (the “Encumbered Properties”). The encumbered Elgin, Illinois real property includes almost all of the Old Elgin Site that was purchased prior to the Elgin Site purchase.
On March 8, 2010, we entered into a First Amendment to the Credit Facility (the “First Amendment”). The First Amendment modified the Credit Facility to permit us to make acquisitions, subject to restrictions on the amount that can be spent on acquisitions during the term of the Credit Facility and meeting specified other criterion including loan availability levels and pro forma financial covenant compliance. In addition, the First Amendment alters the borrowing base calculation, which is based upon accounts receivable, inventory and machinery and equipment (the “Borrowing Base Calculation”), to allow us increased availability from inventory under the Credit Facility during January, February, March, October, November and December, which are the months in which our Company purchases most of its inventory.
The Credit Facility, as amended, matures on February 7, 2013. At our election, borrowings under the Credit Facility accrue interest at either (i) a rate determined pursuant to the administrative agent’s prime rate plus an applicable margin determined by reference to the amount of loans which may be advanced under the Borrowing Base Calculation, ranging from 0.00% to 0.50% or (ii) a rate based upon the London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) plus an applicable margin based upon the Borrowing Base Calculation, ranging from 2.50% to 3.00%. The face amount of undrawn letters of credit accrues interest at a rate of 2.00% to 2.50%, based upon the Borrowing Base Calculation. The portion of the Borrowing Base Calculation based upon machinery and equipment decreases by $1.5 million per year for the first five years to coincide with amortization of the machinery and equipment collateral. As of September 23, 2010, the weighted average interest rate for the Credit Facility was 2.93%. The terms of the Credit Facility contain covenants that require us to restrict investments, indebtedness, capital expenditures, and certain sales of assets, cash dividends, redemptions of capital stock and prepayment of indebtedness (if such prepayment, among other things, is of a subordinate debt). If loan availability under the Borrowing Base Calculation falls below $25.0 million, we will be required to maintain a specified fixed charge coverage ratio, tested on a monthly basis. All cash received from customers is required to be applied against the Credit Facility. The Bank Lenders are entitled to require immediate repayment of our obligations under the Credit Facility in the event of default on the payments required under the Credit Facility, a change in control in the ownership of our Company, non-compliance with the financial covenants or upon the occurrence of certain other defaults by us under the Credit Facility (including a default under the Mortgage Facility). As of September 23, 2010, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility and we

19


Table of Contents

currently expect to be in compliance with the financial covenant in the Credit Facility for the foreseeable future. As of September 23, 2010, we had $71.6 million of available credit under the Credit Facility. We would still be in compliance with all restrictive covenants under the Credit Facility if this entire amount were borrowed.
We are subject to interest rate resets for each of Tranche A and Tranche B. Specifically, on the March 1, 2018 (the “Tranche A Reset Date”) and March 1, 2012 and every two years thereafter (each, a “Tranche B Reset Date”), the Mortgage Lender may reset the interest rates for each of Tranche A and Tranche B, respectively, in its sole and absolute discretion. If the reset interest rate for either Tranche A or Tranche B is unacceptable to us and we (i) do not have sufficient funds to repay amounts due with respect to Tranche A or Tranche B on the Tranche A Reset Date or Tranche B Reset Date, in each case, as applicable, or (ii) are unable to refinance amounts due with respect to Tranche A or Tranche B on the Tranche A Reset Date or Tranche B Reset Date, in each case, as applicable, on terms more favorable than the reset interest rates, then depending on the extent of the changes in the reset interest rates our interest expense could increase materially.
The Mortgage Facility matures on March 1, 2023. Tranche A under the Mortgage Facility accrues interest at a fixed interest rate of 7.63% per annum, payable monthly. As mentioned above, such interest rate may be reset by the Mortgage Lender on the Tranche A Reset Date. Monthly principal payments in the amount of $0.2 million commenced on June 1, 2008. Tranche B under the Mortgage Facility accrues interest, as reset on March 1, 2010, at a floating rate of the greater of one month LIBOR plus 5.50% per annum or 6.50%, payable monthly. The margin on such floating rate may be reset by the Mortgage Lender on each Tranche B Reset Date; provided, however, that the Mortgage Lender may also change the underlying index on each Tranche B Reset Date occurring on or after March 1, 2016. Monthly principal payments in the amount of $0.1 million commenced on June 1, 2008. We do not currently anticipate that any change in the floating rate or the underlying index will have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition or results of operations.
The terms of the Mortgage Facility contain covenants that require us to maintain a specified net worth of $110.0 million and maintain the Encumbered Properties. The Mortgage Facility is secured, in part, by the Old Elgin Site. We must obtain the consent of the Mortgage Lender prior to the sale of the Old Elgin Site. A portion of the Old Elgin Site contains an office building (which we began renting during the third quarter of fiscal 2007) that may or may not be included in any future sale (assuming one were to occur). The Mortgage Lender is entitled to require immediate repayment of our obligations under the Mortgage Facility in the event we default in the payments required under the Mortgage Facility, non-compliance with the covenants or upon the occurrence of certain other defaults by us under the Mortgage Facility. As of September 23, 2010, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Mortgage Facility. We currently believe that we will be in compliance with the financial covenant in the Mortgage Facility for the foreseeable future and therefore $28.0 million has been classified as long-term debt as of September 23, 2010. This $28.0 million represents scheduled principal payments due under Tranche A beyond twelve months of September 23, 2010.
As of September 23, 2010, we had $4.3 million in aggregate principal amount of industrial development bonds (the “bonds”) outstanding, which was originally used to finance the acquisition, construction and equipping of our Bainbridge, Georgia facility. The bonds bear interest payable semiannually at 4.55% (which was reset on June 1, 2006) through May 2011. On June 1, 2011, and on each subsequent interest reset date for the bonds, we are required to redeem the bonds at face value plus any accrued and unpaid interest, unless a bondholder elects to retain his, her or its bonds. Any of the bonds redeemed by us at the demand of a bondholder on the reset date are required to be remarketed by the underwriter of the bonds on a “best efforts” basis. Funds for the redemption of the bonds on the demand of any bondholder are required to be obtained from the following sources in the following order of priority: (i) funds supplied by us for redemption; (ii) proceeds from the remarketing of the bonds; (iii) proceeds from a drawing under the bonds’ Letter of Credit held by the Bank Lenders (the “IDB Letter of Credit”); or (iv) in the event that funds from the foregoing sources are insufficient, a mandatory payment by us. Drawings under the IDB Letter of Credit to redeem the bonds on the demand of any bondholder are payable in full by us upon demand by the Bank Lenders. In addition, we are required to redeem the bonds in varying annual installments, ranging from $0.5 million in fiscal 2011 to $0.8 million in fiscal 2017. We are also required to redeem the bonds in certain other circumstances (for example, within 180 days after any determination that interest on the bonds is taxable). We have the option, subject to certain conditions, to redeem the bonds at face value plus accrued interest, if any. Since the bonds may be payable at the interest reset date of June 1, 2011, the entire aggregate balance of $4.3 million is classified as a current liability as of September 23, 2010.
In September 2006, we sold our Selma, Texas properties to two related party partnerships for $14.3 million and are leasing them back. The selling price was determined by an independent appraiser to be the fair market value which also approximated our carrying value. The lease for the Selma, Texas properties has a ten-year term at a fair market value rent with three five-year renewal options. Also, we have an option to purchase the properties from the partnerships after five years at 95% (100% in certain circumstances) of the then fair market value, but not less than

Table of Contents

the $14.3 million purchase price. The provisions of the arrangement are not eligible for sale-leaseback accounting and therefore the financing obligation is being accounted for similarly to the accounting for a capital lease, whereby $14.3 million was recorded as a debt obligation. No gain or loss was recorded on the transaction. As of September 23, 2010, $13.3 million of the debt obligation was outstanding.
Capital Expenditures
We spent $1.4 million on capital expenditures during the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to $2.2 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2010. We expect total capital expenditures for equipment upgrades, facility maintenance and food safety enhancements for fiscal 2011 to be under $10.0 million. Absent any material acquisitions or other significant investments, we believe that cash on hand, combined with cash provided by operations and borrowings available under the Credit Facility, will be sufficient to meet cash requirements for capital expenditures.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R),” (“SFAS 167”) which amended the consolidation guidance applicable to variable interest entities (“VIEs”). The SFAS 167 amendments are effective as of the first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, and for interim periods within that first annual reporting period. SFAS 167 replaces Interpretation 46(R)’s risks-and-rewards-based quantitative approach to consolidation with a more qualitative approach that requires a reporting entity to have some economic exposure to a VIE along with “the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the entity.” The FASB also reminded its constituents that only substantive terms, transactions, and arrangements should affect the accounting conclusions under SFAS 167. The SFAS 167 provisions were included in Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-17, “Topic 810 – Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities,” (“ASU 2009-17”). The implementation of ASU 2009-17 had no material impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
The statements contained in this filing that are not historical (including statements concerning our Company’s expectations regarding market risk) are “forward looking statements.” These forward-looking statements may be generally identified by the use of forward-looking words and phrases such as “will”, “anticipates”, “intends”, “may”, “believes”, and “expects” and are based on our current expectations or beliefs concerning future events and involve risks and uncertainties. Our Company cautions that such statements are qualified by important factors, including the factors referred to in Part II, Item 1A — “Risk Factors”, and other factors that are beyond our Company’s control. Consequently, our actual results could differ materially. We undertake no obligation to update publicly or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or other factors that affect the subject of these statements, except where expressly required to do so by law. Among the factors that could cause results to differ materially from current expectations are: (i) the risks associated with our vertically integrated model with respect to pecans, peanuts and walnuts; (ii) sales activity for our products, including a decline in sales to one or more key customers; (iii) changes in the availability and costs of raw materials and the impact of fixed price commitments with customers; (iv) the ability to measure and estimate bulk inventory, fluctuations in the value and quantity of our nut inventories due to fluctuations in the market prices of nuts and bulk inventory estimation adjustments, respectively, and decreases in the value of inventory held for other entities, where we are financially responsible for such losses; (v) our ability to lessen the negative impact of competitive and pricing pressures; (vi) losses associated with product recalls or the potential for lost sales or product liability if customers lose confidence in the safety of our products or in nuts or nut products in general, or are harmed as a result of using our products; (vii) our ability to retain key personnel; (viii) the effect of the group that owns the majority of our voting securities (which may make a takeover or change in control more difficult), including the effect of the agreements pursuant to which such group has pledged a substantial amount of our Company’s securities that it owns; (ix) the potential negative impact of government regulations, including the Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act and laws and regulations pertaining to food safety; (x) our ability to do business in emerging markets; (xi) uncertainty in economic conditions, including the potential for another economic downturn; (xii) our ability to obtain additional capital, if needed; (xiii) the risk that expected synergies, operational efficiencies and cost savings from the OVH acquisition may not be fully realized or realized within the expected timeframe and the risk that unexpected liabilities may arise from the OVH acquisition; and (xiv) the timing and occurrence (or nonoccurrence) of other transactions and events which may be subject to circumstances beyond our control.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There has been no material change in our assessment of our sensitivity to market risk since our presentation set forth in item 7A “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 24, 2010.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) as of September 23, 2010. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 23, 2010, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
In connection with the evaluation by our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) during the quarter ended September 23, 2010 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are a party to various lawsuits, proceedings and other matters arising out of the conduct of our business. Currently, it is our management’s opinion that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this report on Form 10-Q, you should also consider the factors which could materially affect our Company’s business, financial condition or future results as discussed in Part I, “Item 1A — Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 24, 2010. There were no significant changes to the risk factors identified on the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 24, 2010 during the first quarter of fiscal 2011 other than the following:
We could be party to litigation that could adversely affect us by increasing our expenses or subjecting us to significant money damages and other remedies.
We may become involved in employment litigation as these types of lawsuits have become more prevalent in the current economic environment. Plaintiffs in these types of lawsuits often seek recovery of very large or indeterminate amounts, and the magnitude of the potential loss relating to such lawsuits may not be accurately estimated. Regardless of whether any claims against us are valid, or whether we are ultimately held liable, such litigation may be expensive to defend and may divert time and money away from our operations and hurt our performance. A judgment for significant monetary damages could adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations. Any adverse publicity resulting from these allegations may also adversely affect our reputation, which in turn could adversely affect our results.
