Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Description of Business

As used herein, unless the context otherwise indicates, the terms “we”, “us”, “our” or “Company” collectively refer to John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiary, JBSS Ventures, LLC. Our fiscal year ends on the final Thursday of June each year, and typically consists of fifty-two weeks (four thirteen-week quarters). Additional information on the comparability of the periods presented is as follows:

References herein to fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023 are to the fiscal year ending June 27, 2024 and the fiscal year ended June 29, 2023, respectively.
References herein to the third quarter of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023 are to the quarters ended March 28, 2024 and March 30, 2023, respectively.
References herein to the first three quarters or first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023 are to the thirty-nine weeks ended March 28, 2024 and March 30, 2023, respectively.

We are one of the leading processors and distributors of peanuts, pecans, cashews, walnuts, almonds and other nuts in the United States. These nuts are sold under our Fisher, Orchard Valley Harvest, Squirrel Brand and Southern Style Nuts brand names and under a variety of private brands. We also market and distribute, and in most cases, manufacture or process, a diverse product line of food and snack products, including peanut butter, almond butter, cashew butter, candy and confections, snack and trail mixes, nutrition bars, snack bars, snack bites, sunflower kernels, dried fruit, corn snacks, chickpea snacks, sesame sticks, other sesame snack products and baked cheese snack products under our brand names, including Just the Cheese, and under private brands. Finally, with our recent acquisition of assets relating to the snack bars business from TreeHouse Foods, Inc., which was completed in the second quarter of fiscal 2024, we are able to offer our private brand customers a complete portfolio of snack bars. Our products are sold through three primary distribution channels, including food retailers in the consumer channel, commercial ingredient users and contract packaging customers.

The accompanying unaudited financial statements fairly present the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity and consolidated statements of cash flows, and reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments which are necessary for the fair statement of the results of the interim periods. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.

The interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. The balance sheet data as of June 29, 2023 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Accordingly, these unaudited financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2023.

Lakeville Acquisition

Note 2 Lakeville Acquisition

On September 29, 2023, we completed the acquisition of certain assets from TreeHouse Foods, Inc. (the “Seller”) relating to its snack bars business. The acquired assets include inventory, a manufacturing facility and related equipment located in Lakeville, Minnesota, and product formulas (the “Lakeville Acquisition”). The initial purchase price was approximately $61,546 in cash, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. Following the closing, we received payments from the Seller of $2,572 for purchase price adjustments related to the actual inventory and fixed assets acquired, for a revised purchase price of $58,974, net. The purchase price for the Lakeville Acquisition was primarily funded from borrowings under the Credit Facility as amended by the Second Amendment (defined below).

The Lakeville Acquisition accelerates our strategy within the growing snack bar category and diversifies our product offerings. It also allows us to offer private brand customers a complete portfolio of snack bars, including fruit and grain, crunchy, protein, sweet and salty and chewy bars that complement internally developed nutrition bars. The Lakeville Acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations”.

The following table summarizes the preliminary amounts allocated to the fair values of certain assets acquired at the acquisition date:

Property, plant and equipment represent a manufacturing facility and related equipment located in Lakeville, Minnesota. The fair value for the property was primarily determined using a market approach. The fair values for the machinery and equipment were determined using a combination of the direct and indirect cost approaches, along with the market approach. All assets will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated remaining useful lives as determined in accordance with our accounting policies.

The product formulas asset represents the value of these formulas designed to replicate the taste, texture and appearance of branded snack bars. The fair value of the product formulas was determined using the income approach through a relief from royalty method analysis. We are amortizing formulas over a weighted average life of 5.4 years.

There were no recognized or unrecognized material contingencies associated with the acquired business.

The $61,950 fair value of the identifiable assets acquired exceeded the total purchase price of $58,974. Accordingly, this acquisition resulted in a bargain purchase and we recognized a gain of $2,226, net of taxes, which is reported in the caption “Bargain purchase gain, net” in our consolidated financial results for the thirty-nine weeks ended March 28, 2024. We believe the Lakeville Acquisition resulted in a bargain purchase gain because the Seller was motivated to divest such snack bars business, as its performance no longer supported the Seller's long-term growth targets.

Net sales of $75,606 from the closing date of the Lakeville Acquisition on September 29, 2023 are included in our consolidated financial results for the thirty-nine weeks ended March 28, 2024. The closing date of the Lakeville Acquisition was on the first day of our second fiscal quarter. The Company also incurred acquisition-related costs of $142 and $811 for the quarter and thirty-nine weeks ended March 28, 2024, respectively. These costs are included in Administrative expenses.

The following reflects the unaudited pro forma results of operations of the Company as if the Lakeville Acquisition had taken place at the beginning of fiscal 2023. This pro forma information does not purport to represent what the Company’s actual results would have been if the Lakeville Acquisition had occurred as of the date indicated or what such results would be for any future periods.

These unaudited pro forma results have been calculated after applying our accounting policies and adjusting the results of the Lakeville Acquisition to reflect elimination of transaction costs and the bargain purchase gain and to record additional interest expense and cost of sales that would have been incurred, assuming the fair value adjustment to inventory had been applied from July 1, 2022, net of related income taxes in respect of pro forma net income and diluted earnings per share performance. The impact to the above pro forma information of incremental depreciation and amortization expense is insignificant and therefore excluded from the calculation of pro forma results.

Since the Lakeville Acquisition, we continue to operate in a single reportable operating segment that consists of selling various nut and nut-related products and snacks through three sales distribution channels. Revenues from the Lakeville Acquisition are primarily in our consumer distribution channel.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]  
Revenue Recognition

Note 3 – Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. For each customer contract, a five-step process is followed in which we identify the contract, identify performance obligations, determine the transaction price, allocate the contract transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognize the revenue when (or as) the performance obligation is transferred to the customer.

When Performance Obligations Are Satisfied

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account for revenue recognition. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s performance obligations are primarily for the delivery of raw and processed recipe and snack nuts, nut butters and trail mixes.

Our customer contracts do not include more than one performance obligation. If a contract were to contain more than one performance obligation, we are required to allocate the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. The standalone selling price for each distinct good is generally determined by directly observable data.

Revenue recognition is generally completed at a point in time when product control is transferred to the customer. For virtually all of our revenues, control transfers to the customer when the product is shipped or delivered to the customer based upon applicable shipping terms. This allows the customer to then direct the use and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the asset at that point in time. Therefore, the timing of our revenue recognition requires little judgment.

Variable Consideration

Some of our products are sold through specific incentive programs including, but not limited to, promotional allowances, volume and customer rebates, in-store display incentives and marketing allowances to consumer and some commercial ingredient customers. The ultimate cost of these programs is dependent on certain factors such as actual purchase volumes or customer activities. It is also dependent on significant management judgment when determining estimates. The Company accounts for these programs as variable consideration and recognizes a reduction in revenue (and a corresponding reduction in the transaction price) in the same period as the underlying program based upon the terms of the specific arrangements.

Trade promotions, consisting primarily of customer pricing allowances, merchandising funds and consumer coupons, are also offered through various programs to customers and consumers. A provision for estimated trade promotions is recorded as a reduction of revenue (and a reduction in the transaction price) in the same period when the sale is recognized. Revenues are also recorded net of expected customer deductions which are provided for based upon past experiences. Evaluating these estimates requires management judgment.

We generally use the most likely amount method to determine the variable consideration. We believe there will not be significant changes to our estimates of variable consideration when any related uncertainties are resolved with our customers. The Company reviews and updates its estimates and related accruals of variable consideration and trade promotions at least quarterly based on the terms of the agreements and historical experience. Any uncertainties in the ultimate resolution of variable consideration due to factors outside of the Company’s influence are typically resolved within a short timeframe. Therefore, no additional constraint on the variable consideration is required.

Contract Balances

Contract assets or liabilities result from transactions with revenue recorded over time. If the measure of remaining rights exceeds the measure of the remaining performance obligations, the Company records a contract asset. Conversely, if the measure of the remaining performance obligations exceeds the measure of the remaining rights, the Company records a contract liability. There was no contract asset balance for any periods presented. The Company generally does not have material deferred revenue or contract liability balances arising from transactions with customers.

Leases

Note 4 – Leases

Description of Leases

We lease equipment used in the transportation of goods in our warehouses, as well as a limited number of automobiles and a small warehouse near our Bainbridge, Georgia facility. Our leases generally do not contain non-lease components and do not contain any explicit guarantees of residual value. Our leases for warehouse transportation equipment generally require the equipment to be returned to the lessor in good working order.

Through a review of our contracts, we determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception and analyze the lease to determine if it is operating or finance. Operating lease right-of-use assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental collateralized borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Implicit rates are used when readily determinable. None of our leases currently contain options to extend the term. In the event of an option to extend the term of a lease, the lease term used in measuring the liability would include options to extend or terminate the lease if it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. Our leases have remaining terms of up to 5.3 years.

It is our accounting policy not to apply lease recognition requirements to short term leases, defined as leases with an initial term of 12 months or less. As such, leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We have also made the policy election to not separate lease and non-lease components for all leases.

The following table provides supplemental information related to operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities:

At March 28, 2024, the Company has additional operating leases of approximately $19,576 that have not yet commenced and therefore are not reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and tables above. The leases are scheduled to commence in the next two fiscal quarters with initial lease terms ranging from 5 to 7.5 years. On April 23, 2024, the Company entered into a 7.5 year lease for a warehouse of approximately 444,600 square feet. The warehouse is located in Huntley, IL near our largest facility in Elgin, IL. The warehouse will be utilized to store finished goods inventory and as a distribution center.

Lessor Accounting

We lease office space in our four-story office building located in Elgin, Illinois. As a lessor, we retain substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership of the investment property and under Topic 842: Leases we continue to account for all of our leases as operating leases. Lease agreements may include options to renew. We accrue fixed lease income on a straight‑line basis over the terms of the leases. There is generally no variable lease consideration and an immaterial amount of non-lease components such as recurring utility and storage fees. Leases between related parties are immaterial.

Our Second Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment”) dated September 29, 2023 provides for a $150,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), which was increased from $117,500, to provide extra available capacity for our short-term working capital requirements due to the Lakeville Acquisition. The Second Amendment also extends the maturity of the Credit Facility to September 29, 2028 and allows the Company to pay up to $100,000 in dividends per year, subject to meeting availability tests. The Credit Facility is secured by substantially all our assets other than machinery and equipment, real property and fixtures.

At March 28, 2024, we had $114,114 of available credit under the Credit Facility which reflects borrowings of $32,093 and reduced availability as a result of $3,793 in outstanding letters of credit. As of March 28, 2024, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under the Credit Facility.

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

Note 9 – Stock-Based Compensation Plans

At our annual meeting of stockholders on November 2, 2023, our stockholders approved a new equity incentive plan (the “2023 Omnibus Plan”) under which awards of options and stock-based awards may be made to employees, officers or non-employee directors of our Company. A total of 747,065 shares of Common Stock are authorized for grants of awards thereunder, which may be in the form of options, restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), stock appreciation rights (SARs”), performance shares, performance units, Common Stock or dividends and dividend equivalents.

The total number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which options or SARs may be granted in any calendar year to any participant may not exceed 500,000 shares (this limit applies separately with respect to each type of award). Additionally, for awards of restricted stock, RSUs, performance shares or other stock-based awards that are intended to qualify as performance-based compensation: (i) the total number of shares of Common Stock that may be granted in any calendar year to any participant may not exceed 250,000 shares (this limit applies separately to each type of award) and (ii) the maximum amount that may be paid to any participant for awards that are payable in cash or property other than Common Stock in any calendar year is $5,000.
