Commenting on the results, Casey Keller, President and Chief
Executive Officer of B&G Foods, stated, “B&G Foods remains
committed to execute against our long-term strategy to improve
organic growth and focus the portfolio, despite short-term weakness
in consumer packaged food demand. Second quarter results were
largely in line with expectations, showing gradual, sequential
improvement in base business net sales from the first quarter. Net
sales on the highest margin Spices & Flavor Solutions business
increased by 4.9% versus last year. As previously announced, we
recently refinanced a large portion of our long-term debt, pushing
out maturity dates several years into the future to reduce balance
sheet risk. We also continue to review and work possible
divestitures to reduce debt, increase focus on our core businesses,
and position B&G Foods for long-term organic and acquisition
growth.”
Financial Results for the Second Quarter of 2024 Net
sales for the second quarter of 2024 decreased $25.0 million, or
5.3%, to $444.6 million from $469.6 million for the second quarter
of 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to the Green Giant
U.S. shelf-stable divestiture, a decrease in unit volume, a
decrease in net pricing and the impact of product mix. Net sales of
the Green Giant U.S. shelf-stable product line, which the Company
divested on November 8, 2023, were $13.7 million in the second
quarter of 2023.
Base business net sales for the second quarter of 2024 decreased
$11.3 million, or 2.5%, to $444.6 million from $455.9 million for
the second quarter of 2023. The decrease in base business net sales
was driven by a decrease in unit volume of $9.3 million, or 2.0% of
base business net sales, a decrease in net pricing and the impact
of product mix of $1.8 million, or 0.4%, and the negative impact of
foreign currency of $0.2 million.
Gross profit was $92.0 million for the second quarter of 2024,
or 20.7% of net sales. Adjusted gross profit(1), which excludes the
negative impact of $1.2 million of acquisition/divestiture-related
expenses and non-recurring expenses included in cost of goods sold
during the second quarter of 2024, was $93.2 million, or 21.0% of
net sales. Gross profit was $102.3 million for the second quarter
of 2023, or 21.8% of net sales. Adjusted gross profit, which
excludes the negative impact of $0.4 million of
acquisition/divestiture-related expenses and non-recurring expenses
included in cost of goods sold during the second quarter of 2023,
was $102.7 million, or 21.9% of net sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $4.8
million, or 9.9%, to $43.1 million for the second quarter of 2024
from $47.9 million for the second quarter of 2023. The decrease was
composed of decreases in consumer marketing expenses of $3.4
million, selling expenses of $1.9 million, and warehousing expenses
of $0.1 million, partially offset by an increase in general and
administrative expenses of $0.6 million. Expressed as a percentage
of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses improved
by 0.5 percentage points to 9.7% for the second quarter of 2024, as
compared to 10.2% for the second quarter of 2023.
Net interest expense increased $2.0 million, or 5.6%, to $37.8
million for the second quarter of 2024 from $35.8 million for the
second quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to
higher interest rates on the Company’s long-term debt during the
second quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2023, as
well as the accelerated amortization of deferred debt financing
costs of $0.5 million resulting from the Company’s prepayment of
$21.3 million aggregate principal amount of tranche B term loans
and repurchase of $0.7 million aggregate principal amount of 8.00%
senior secured notes due 2028 during the second quarter of 2024,
partially offset by a reduction in average long-term debt
outstanding during the second quarter of 2024 compared to the
second quarter of 2023 and the accelerated amortization of deferred
debt financing costs relating to long-term debt prepayments during
the second quarter of 2023.
The Company’s net income was $3.9 million, or $0.05 per diluted
share, for the second quarter of 2024, compared to net income of
$10.6 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, for the second quarter
of 2023. The decrease in net income and diluted earnings per share
were primarily attributable to the reduction of base business net
sales in the second quarter of 2024, the impact of the Green Giant
U.S. shelf-stable divestiture and the negative impact on income tax
expense of $1.0 million, or $0.01 per share, resulting from return
to provision adjustments in the U.S. and Mexico. The Company’s
adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2024 was $6.6
million, or $0.08 per adjusted diluted share, compared to adjusted
net income of $10.7 million, or $0.15 per adjusted diluted share,
for the second quarter of 2023. The Company’s diluted earnings per
share and adjusted diluted earnings per share for the second
quarter of 2024 was negatively impacted by an increase to the
weighted average shares outstanding in the second quarter of 2024
compared to the second quarter of 2023.
For the second quarter of 2024, adjusted EBITDA was $63.9
million, a decrease of $4.6 million, or 6.6%, compared to $68.5
million for the second quarter of 2023. The decrease in adjusted
EBITDA was primarily attributable to the reduction of base business
net sales in the second quarter of 2024 and the impact of the Green
Giant U.S. shelf-stable divestiture. Adjusted EBITDA as a
percentage of net sales was 14.4% for the second quarter of 2024,
compared to 14.6% for the second quarter of 2023.
Financial Results for First Two Quarters of 2024 Net
sales for the first two quarters of 2024 decreased $61.7 million,
or 6.3%, to $919.8 million from $981.5 million for the first two
quarters of 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to the
Green Giant U.S. shelf-stable divestiture, a decrease in unit
volume, and a decrease in net pricing and the impact of product
mix. Net sales of the Green Giant U.S. shelf-stable product line,
which the Company divested on November 8, 2023, were $28.2 million
in the first two quarters of 2023.
Base business net sales for the first two quarters of 2024
decreased $33.3 million, or 3.5%, to $919.9 million from $953.2
million for the first two quarters of 2023. The decrease in base
business net sales was driven by a decrease in net pricing and the
impact of product mix of $17.2 million, or 1.8% of base business
net sales and a decrease in unit volume of $16.1 million, or
1.7%.
Gross profit was $200.9 million for the first two quarters of
2024, or 21.8% of net sales. Adjusted gross profit, which excludes
the negative impact of $2.2 million of
acquisition/divestiture-related expenses and non-recurring expenses
included in cost of goods sold during the first two quarters of
2024, was $203.1 million, or 22.1% of net sales. Gross profit was
$216.5 million for the first two quarters of 2023, or 22.1% of net
sales. Adjusted gross profit, which excludes the negative impact of
$1.1 million of acquisition/divestiture-related expenses and
non-recurring expenses included in cost of goods sold during the
first two quarters of 2023, was $217.6 million, or 22.2% of net
sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $2.9
million, or 3.0%, to $91.7 million for the first two quarters of
2024 from $94.6 million for the first two quarters of 2023. The
decrease was composed of decreases in selling expenses of $3.0
million, consumer marketing expenses of $1.8 million, and
warehousing expenses of $0.7 million, partially offset by increases
in general and administrative expenses of $2.5 million and
acquisition/divestiture-related and non-recurring expenses of $0.1
million. Expressed as a percentage of net sales, selling, general
and administrative expenses increased by 0.4 percentage points to
10.0% for the first two quarters of 2024, as compared to 9.6% for
the first two quarters of 2023.
In connection with the Company’s transition from one reporting
segment to four reporting segments during the first quarter of
2024, the Company reassigned assets and liabilities, including
goodwill, between the reporting segments and completed a goodwill
impairment test both prior to and subsequent to the change. The
goodwill impairment test resulted in the Company recognizing
pre-tax, non-cash goodwill impairment charges of $70.6 million
within its Frozen & Vegetables reporting segment during the
first quarter of 2024.
Net interest expense increased $0.4 million, or 0.5%, to $75.6
million for the first two quarters of 2024 from $75.2 million for
the first two quarters of 2023. The increase was primarily
attributable to higher interest rates on the Company’s long-term
debt during the first two quarters of 2024 compared to the first
two quarters of 2023, as well as the accelerated amortization of
deferred debt financing costs of $0.5 million resulting from the
Company’s prepayment of $21.3 million aggregate principal amount of
tranche B term loans and repurchase of $0.7 million aggregate
principal amount of 8.00% senior secured notes due 2028 during the
second quarter of 2024, partially offset by a reduction in average
long-term debt outstanding during the first two quarters of 2024
compared to the first two quarters of 2023 and the accelerated
amortization of deferred debt financing costs relating to long-term
debt prepayments during the first two quarters of 2023.
The Company had a net loss of $36.3 million, or $0.46 per
diluted share, for the first two quarters of 2024, compared to net
income of $14.0 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the first
two quarters of 2023. The Company’s net loss for the first two
quarters of 2024 was primarily attributable to pre-tax, non-cash
impairment charges of $70.6 million for the impairment of goodwill
within the Company’s Frozen & Vegetables reporting segment, the
reduction of base business net sales in the first two quarters of
2024, the impact of the Green Giant U.S. shelf-stable divestiture
and the negative impact on income tax expense of $1.0 million, or
$0.01 per share, resulting from return to provision adjustments in
the U.S. and Mexico. The Company’s adjusted net income for the
first two quarters of 2024 was $21.0 million, or $0.27 per adjusted
diluted share, compared to adjusted net income of $29.8 million, or
$0.41 per adjusted diluted share, for the first two quarters of
2023. The Company’s adjusted diluted earnings per share for the
first two quarters of 2024 was negatively impacted by an increase
to the weighted average shares outstanding in the first two
quarters of 2024 compared to the first two quarters of 2023.
For the first two quarters of 2024, adjusted EBITDA was $139.0
million, a decrease of $11.8 million, or 7.9%, compared to $150.8
million for the first two quarters of 2023. The decrease in
adjusted EBITDA was primarily attributable to the reduction of base
business net sales in the first two quarters of 2024 and the impact
of the Green Giant U.S. shelf-stable divestiture. Adjusted EBITDA
as a percentage of net sales was 15.1% for the first two quarters
of 2024, compared to 15.4% for the first two quarters of 2023.
Tack-on Offering of Senior Secured Notes and Credit Agreement
Refinancing Tack-on Offering of 8.00% Senior Secured Notes Due
2028. On July 12, 2024, the Company completed its offering of an
additional $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.00%
senior secured notes due 2028. The new senior secured notes were
issued at a price of 100.5% of their face value plus accrued and
unpaid interest from March 15, 2024 to, but excluding, the closing
date. The new senior secured notes constitute an additional
issuance of senior secured notes under the indenture, dated as of
September 26, 2023, governing the Company’s previously issued 8.00%
senior secured notes due 2028. Following completion of the tack-on
offering, as of August 6, 2024, approximately $799.3 million
aggregate principal amount of 8.00% senior secured notes due 2028
are outstanding.
The Company used the net proceeds of the new senior secured
notes offering to repay a portion of its tranche B term loans and
revolving credit loans under its senior secured credit agreement
and to pay related fees and expenses.
Credit Agreement Refinancing. Also on July 12, 2024, the Company
completed the refinancing and amendment of its senior secured
credit agreement. As part of the refinancing and together with a
portion of the net proceeds of the tack-on offering, the Company
reduced the aggregate principal amount of tranche B term loans
outstanding from $507.3 million to $450.0 million by replacing
$507.3 million of outstanding tranche B term loans with $450.0
million of new tranche B term loans. The Company also extended the
maturity date for the tranche B term loans from October 10, 2026 to
October 10, 2029.
As part of the refinancing, the Company also prepaid $175.0
million aggregate principal amount of revolving credit loans with a
portion of the proceeds of the tack-on offering, decreased the
revolver capacity under the senior secured credit agreement from
$800.0 million to $475.0 million aggregate principal amount, and
extended the maturity date of its revolving credit facility from
December 16, 2025 to December 16, 2028. As of August 6, 2024, $30.0
million aggregate principal amount of revolving credit loans remain
outstanding.
Segment Results(2) Historically, the Company operated in
a single industry segment. However, beginning with the first
quarter of 2024, the Company now operates in, and has begun
reporting results by, four business segments. This change stemmed
from the Company’s recent formation and the evolution of the
Company’s four business units: Specialty, Meals, Frozen &
Vegetables and Spices & Flavor Solutions, which are further
described below. Prior period segment results in this earnings
press release have been recast to reflect the change from one
single operating segment to four operating segments.
Specialty — includes, among others, the
Crisco, Clabber Girl, Bear Creek, Polaner, Underwood, B&G,
Grandma’s, New York Style, B&M, TrueNorth, Don Pepino,
Sclafani, Baker’s Joy, Regina, SugarTwin and Brer Rabbit
brands.
Meals — includes, among others, the Ortega,
Maple Grove Farms, Cream of Wheat, Victoria, Las Palmas, Mama
Mary’s, Spring Tree, McCann’s, Carey’s and Vermont Maid brands.
Frozen & Vegetables — includes the Green
Giant and Le Sueur brands.
Spices & Flavor Solutions — includes,
among others, the Dash, Weber, Spice Islands, Tone’s, Ac’cent,
Trappey’s, Durkee and Wright’s brands.

For the second quarter of 2024, the decrease in Specialty
segment net sales was primarily due to a decrease in Crisco net
pricing driven by a decrease in commodity costs coupled with a
decrease in volumes across the rest of the Specialty portfolio in
the aggregate, partially offset by an increase in Crisco volumes.
For the first two quarters of 2024, the decrease in Specialty
segment net sales was primarily due to a decrease in Crisco pricing
driven by a decrease in commodity costs coupled with a decrease in
volumes for Crisco and a decrease in volumes for the rest of the
Specialty portfolio in the aggregate. The decrease in Specialty
segment adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter and first two
quarters of 2024 was primarily due to lower volumes, partially
offset by rate improvements across key materials and freight
costs.

For the second quarter and first two quarters of 2024, the
decrease in Frozen & Vegetables segment net sales was primarily
due to the Green Giant U.S. shelf-stable divestiture (which
negatively impacted net sales versus the prior year period by $13.8
million and $28.3 million, respectively), a decrease in volumes,
increased promotional trade spending, and the impact of product mix
in frozen. The decrease in Frozen & Vegetables segment adjusted
EBITDA was primarily due to the Green Giant U.S. shelf-stable
divestiture, a decrease in net sales, increases in material costs
and the negative impact of foreign currency, partially offset by
improvements in freight costs.

For the second quarter of 2024, the increase in Spices &
Flavor Solutions segment net sales was primarily due to increased
volumes across the Spices & Flavor Solutions portfolio in the
aggregate. The increase in Spices & Flavor Solutions segment
adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to an increase in net sales and
improvements in freight costs, partially offset by increases in
material costs. For the first two quarters of 2024, Spices &
Flavor Solutions segment net sales and segment adjusted EBITDA were
essentially flat.
Full Year Fiscal 2024 Guidance B&G Foods revised its
net sales guidance for fiscal 2024 to a range of $1.945 billion to
$1.970 billion, revised its adjusted EBITDA guidance to a range of
$300 million to $315 million, and revised its adjusted diluted
earnings per share guidance to a range of $0.70 to $0.90.
B&G Foods provides earnings guidance only on a non-GAAP
basis and does not provide a reconciliation of the Company’s
forward-looking adjusted EBITDA and adjusted diluted earnings per
share guidance to the most directly comparable GAAP financial
measures because of the inherent difficulty in forecasting and
quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such
reconciliations, including adjustments that could be made for
deferred taxes; acquisition/divestiture-related expenses, gains and
losses (which may include third-party fees and expenses,
integration, restructuring and consolidation expenses, amortization
of acquired inventory fair value step-up and gains and losses on
the sale of certain assets); gains and losses on extinguishment of
debt; impairment of assets held for sale; impairment of intangible
assets; non-recurring expenses, gains and losses; and other charges
reflected in the Company’s reconciliation of historic non-GAAP
financial measures, the amounts of which, based on past experience,
could be material. For additional information regarding B&G
Foods’ non-GAAP financial measures, see “About Non-GAAP Financial
Measures and Items Affecting Comparability” below.
Conference Call B&G Foods will hold a conference call
at 4:30 p.m. ET today, August 6, 2024 to discuss second quarter
2024 financial results. The live audio webcast of the conference
call can be accessed at www.bgfoods.com/investor-relations. A
replay of the webcast will be available following the conference
call through the same link.
About Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Items Affecting
Comparability “Adjusted net income” (net income (loss) adjusted
for certain items that affect comparability), “adjusted diluted
earnings per share” (diluted earnings (loss) per share adjusted for
certain items that affect comparability), “base business net sales”
(net sales without the impact of acquisitions until the
acquisitions are included in both comparable periods and without
the impact of discontinued or divested brands), “EBITDA” (net
income (loss) before net interest expense, income taxes, and
depreciation and amortization), “adjusted EBITDA” (EBITDA as
adjusted for cash and non-cash acquisition/divestiture-related
expenses, gains and losses (which may include third-party fees and
expenses, integration, restructuring and consolidation expenses,
amortization of acquired inventory fair value step-up and gains and
losses on the sale of certain assets), gains and losses on
extinguishment of debt, impairment of assets held for sale,
impairment of intangible assets, and non-recurring expenses, gains
and losses), “segment adjusted EBITDA” (adjusted EBITDA for
operating segments), “adjusted gross profit” (gross profit adjusted
for acquisition/divestiture-related expenses and non-recurring
expenses included in cost of goods sold) and “adjusted gross profit
percentage” (gross profit as a percentage of net sales adjusted for
acquisition/divestiture-related expenses and non-recurring expenses
included in cost of goods sold) are “non-GAAP financial measures.”
A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of financial
performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different
than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the
United States (GAAP) in B&G Foods’ consolidated balance sheets
and related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive
(loss) income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows.
Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation
or as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measures.
The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures may be different from
non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures to adjust for
certain items that affect comparability. This information is
provided in order to allow investors to make meaningful comparisons
of the Company’s operating performance between periods and to view
the Company’s business from the same perspective as the Company’s
management. Because the Company cannot predict the timing and
amount of these items that affect comparability, management does
not consider these items when evaluating the Company’s performance
or when making decisions regarding allocation of resources.
Additional information regarding EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA,
segment adjusted EBITDA and reconciliations of EBITDA, adjusted
EBITDA and segment adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) and, in the
case of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, to net cash provided by
operating activities, is included below for the second quarter and
first two quarters of 2024 and 2023, along with the components of
EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and segment adjusted EBITDA. Also included
below are reconciliations of the non-GAAP terms adjusted net
income, adjusted diluted earnings per share and base business net
sales to the most directly comparable measure calculated and
presented in accordance with GAAP in the Company’s consolidated
balance sheets and related consolidated statements of operations,
comprehensive (loss) income, changes in stockholders’ equity and
cash flows.

depreciation and amortization, acquisition/divestiture-related and
non-recurring expenses, impairment of intangible assets, gains and
losses on sales of assets, interest expense, and income tax expense
or benefit. Unallocated corporate items consist of centrally
managed corporate functions, including selling, marketing,
procurement, centralized administrative functions, insurance, and
other similar expenses not directly tied to segment operating
performance. Depreciation and amortization expenses are neither
maintained nor available by operating segment, as the Company’s
manufacturing, warehouse, and distribution activities are centrally
managed. These items that are centrally managed at the corporate
level, and therefore excluded from the measure of segment adjusted
EBITDA, are reviewed by the CODM. Expenses that are managed
centrally but can be attributed to a segment, such as warehousing
and transportation expenses, are generally allocated based on
sales.

_____________________________
(1)
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP
financial measures used by management to measure operating
performance. A non-GAAP financial measure is defined as a numerical
measure of the Company’s financial performance that excludes or
includes amounts so as to be different from the most directly
comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP
in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and related
consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive (loss) income,
changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows. The Company defines
EBITDA as net income (loss) before net interest expense, income
taxes, and depreciation and amortization. The Company defines
adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for cash and non-cash
acquisition/divestiture-related expenses, gains and losses (which
may include third-party fees and expenses, integration,
restructuring and consolidation expenses, amortization of acquired
inventory fair value step-up, and gains and losses on the sale of
certain assets); gains and losses on extinguishment of debt;
impairment of assets held for sale; impairment of intangible
assets; and non-recurring expenses, gains and losses.
Management believes that it is useful to
eliminate these items because it allows management to focus on what
it deems to be a more reliable indicator of ongoing operating
performance and the Company’s ability to generate cash flow from
operations. The Company uses EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA in the
Company’s business operations to, among other things, evaluate the
Company’s operating performance, develop budgets and measure the
Company’s performance against those budgets, determine employee
bonuses and evaluate the Company’s cash flows in terms of cash
needs. The Company also presents EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA because
the Company believes they are useful indicators of the Company’s
historical debt capacity and ability to service debt and because
covenants in the Company’s credit agreement and the Company’s
senior notes indentures contain ratios based on these measures. As
a result, reports used by internal management during monthly
operating reviews feature the EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA metrics.
However, management uses these metrics in conjunction with
traditional GAAP operating performance and liquidity measures as
part of its overall assessment of company performance and
liquidity, and therefore does not place undue reliance on these
measures as its only measures of operating performance and
liquidity.
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are not
recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be alternatives
to operating income (loss), net income (loss) or any other GAAP
measure as an indicator of operating performance. EBITDA and
adjusted EBITDA are not complete net cash flow measures because
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are measures of liquidity that do not
include reductions for cash payments for an entity’s obligation to
service its debt, fund its working capital, capital expenditures
and acquisitions and pay its income taxes and dividends. Rather,
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are potential indicators of an entity’s
ability to fund these cash requirements. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA
are not complete measures of an entity’s profitability because they
do not include certain costs and expenses and gains and losses
described above. Because not all companies use identical
calculations, this presentation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA may
not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other
companies. However, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA can still be useful
in evaluating the Company’s performance against the Company’s peer
companies because management believes these measures provide users
with valuable insight into key components of GAAP amounts.
(2)
Net interest expense for the second
quarter and first two quarters of 2023 was reduced by $0.8 million
as a result of a gain on extinguishment of debt related to the
Company’s repurchase of $24.4 million aggregate principal amount of
its 5.25% senior notes due 2025 in open market purchases at an
average discounted repurchase price of 95.74% of such principal
amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, which results in a pre-tax
gain of $0.8 million, net of the accelerated amortization of
deferred debt financing costs of $0.2 million.
(3)
Acquisition/divestiture-related and
non-recurring expenses for the second quarter and first two
quarters of 2024 of $1.7 million (or $1.3 million, net of tax) and
$3.4 million (or $2.5 million, net of tax), respectively, primarily
includes non-recurring expenses related to Crisco,
divestiture-related expenses for the Green Giant U.S. shelf-stable
and Back to Nature divestitures, and other non-recurring expenses.
Acquisition/divestiture-related and non-recurring expenses for the
second quarter and first two quarters of 2023 of $1.0 million (or
$0.8 million, net of tax) and $2.2 million (or $1.7 million, net of
tax), respectively, primarily includes acquisition and integration
expenses for the Crisco acquisition and the acquisition of the
frozen vegetable manufacturing operations of Growers Express, LLC,
which was completed on May 5, 2022, and divestiture-related
expenses for the Back to Nature divestiture.
(4)
In connection with the Company’s
transition from one reporting segment to four reporting segments
during the first quarter of 2024, the Company reassigned assets and
liabilities, including goodwill, between the reporting segments and
completed a goodwill impairment test both prior to and subsequent
to the change. The goodwill impairment test resulted in the Company
recognizing pre-tax, non-cash goodwill impairment charges of $70.6
million (or $53.4 million, net of tax) within its Frozen &
Vegetables reporting segment during the first quarter of 2024.
(5)
Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted
earnings per share are non-GAAP financial measures used by
management to measure operating performance. The Company defines
adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share as net
income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per share adjusted for
certain items that affect comparability. These non-GAAP financial
measures reflect adjustments to net income (loss) and diluted
earnings (loss) per share to eliminate the items identified in the
reconciliation above. This information is provided in order to
allow investors to make meaningful comparisons of the Company’s
operating performance between periods and to view the Company’s
business from the same perspective as the Company’s management.

items, management does not consider these items when evaluating the
Company’s performance or when making decisions regarding allocation
of resources.

Base business net sales is a non-GAAP
financial measure used by management to measure operating
performance. The Company defines base business net sales as the
Company’s net sales excluding (1) the net sales of acquisitions
until the net sales from such acquisitions are included in both
comparable periods and (2) net sales of discontinued or divested
brands. The portion of current period net sales attributable to
recent acquisitions for which there is no corresponding period in
the comparable period of the prior year is excluded. For each
acquisition, the excluded period starts at the beginning of the
most recent fiscal period being compared and ends on the first
anniversary of the acquisition date. For discontinued or divested
brands, the entire amount of net sales is excluded from each fiscal
period being compared. The Company has included this financial
measure because management believes it provides useful and
comparable trend information regarding the results of the Company’s
business without the effect of the timing of acquisitions and the
effect of discontinued or divested brands.
(2)
For the second quarter and first two
quarters of 2023, reflects net sales of the Green Giant U.S.
shelf-stable product line, which was sold on November 8, 2023,
partially offset by a net credit paid to customers relating to
discontinued brands. For the second quarter and first two quarters
of 2024, reflects a net credit paid to customers relating to
discontinued and divested brands.

_____________________________
(1)
Adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross
profit percentage are non-GAAP financial measures used by
management to measure operating performance. The Company defines
adjusted gross profit as gross profit adjusted for
acquisition/divestiture-related expenses and non-recurring expenses
included in cost of goods sold and adjusted gross profit percentage
as gross profit percentage (i.e., gross profit as a percentage of
net sales) adjusted for acquisition/divestiture-related expenses
and non-recurring expenses included in cost of goods sold. These
non-GAAP financial measures reflect adjustments to gross profit and
gross profit percentage to eliminate the items identified in the
reconciliation above. This information is provided in order to
allow investors to make meaningful comparisons of the Company’s
operating performance between periods and to view the Company’s
business from the same perspective as the Company’s management.
Because the Company cannot predict the timing and amount of these
items, management does not consider these items when evaluating the
Company’s performance or when making decisions regarding allocation
of resources.
