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 subsidiaries, JBSS Ventures, LLC and Sanfilippo (Shanghai) Trading Co. Ltd. Our fiscal year ends on the final Thursday of June each year, and typically consists of fifty-two weeks (four thirteen-week quarters). Fiscal 2016 consisted of fifty-three weeks, with our fourth quarter containing fourteen weeks. Additional information on the comparability of the periods presented is as follows:

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 a variety of private brands 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, almond butter, cashew butter, candy and confections, snacks and trail mixes, snack bites, sunflower kernels, dried fruit, corn snacks, sesame sticks and other sesame snack products under private brands and brand names. Our products are sold through three primary distribution channels to significant buyers of nuts, 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 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 30, 2016 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 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016.

Note 2 – Inventories

Inventories consist of the following:

Note 3 – Credit Facility

On July 7, 2016, we entered into the Seventh Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Seventh Amendment”) which extended the maturity date of the Credit Agreement from July 15, 2019 to July 7, 2021, and reduced by twenty-five basis points the interest rates charged for loan advances and letter of credit borrowings. The unused line fee was reduced to 0.25% per annum. The aggregate revolving loan commitment remained unchanged. In addition, the Seventh Amendment allows the Company to, without obtaining Bank Lender consent, (i) make up to one cash dividend or distribution on our stock per quarter, or (ii) purchase, acquire, redeem or retire stock in any fiscal quarter, in any case, in an amount not to exceed $60,000 in the aggregate per fiscal year, as long as no default or event of default exists and the excess availability under the Credit Agreement remains over $30,000 immediately before and after giving effect to any such dividend, distribution, purchase or redemption. The Seventh Amendment also permits an additional 5% of outstanding accounts receivable from a major customer to be included as eligible in the borrowing base calculation and reduced the amount available for letter of credit usage to $10,000.

At March 30, 2017, we had $52,488 of available credit under the Credit Facility which reflects borrowings of $61,337 and reduced availability as a result of $3,675 in outstanding letters of credit. As of March 30, 2017, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility and Mortgage Facility (as defined below).

Note 4 – Income Taxes

Upon adoption of ASU 2016-09“Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718)”, as described in Note 12 – “Recent Accounting Pronouncements”, we now recognize excess tax benefits that arise when the tax deduction exceeds the amount of expense recorded for financial reporting purposes as a component of income tax expense. During the thirty-nine weeks ended March 30, 2017, excess tax benefits of $950 were recorded as a component of income tax expense and favorably impacted the effective tax rate by approximately 2.2%.

Note 5 – Earnings Per Common Share

The following table presents the reconciliation of the weighted average shares outstanding used in computing basic and diluted earnings per share:

Anti-dilutive awards excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share were insignificant for all periods presented.

Note 6 – Stock-Based Compensation Plans

The following is a summary of restricted stock unit (“RSU”) activity for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017:

At March 30, 2017, there are 68,673 RSUs outstanding that are vested but deferred.

The following table summarizes compensation expense charged to earnings for all equity compensation plans for the periods presented:

As of March 30, 2017, there was $3,548 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested RSUs granted under our stock-based compensation plans. We expect to recognize that cost over a weighted average period of 1.5 years.

During the thirty-nine weeks ended March 30, 2017, 7,500 stock options were exercised at a weighted-average exercise price of $8.40 and an intrinsic value of $374. There are 2,000 stock options exercisable at March 30, 2017 with a weighted-average exercise price of $10.24, and an aggregate intrinsic value of $125.

Note 7 – Special Cash Dividends

On November 1, 2016, our Board of Directors, after considering the financial position of our Company and other factors, declared a special cash dividend of $2.50 per share on all issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and Class A Common Stock of the Company (the “ November 2016 Special Dividend”). The November 2016 Special Dividend of approximately $28,314 was paid on December 13, 2016 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 30, 2016.

On July 7, 2016, our Board of Directors, after considering the financial position of our Company and other factors, declared a special cash dividend of $2.50 per share on all issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and Class A Common Stock of the Company (the “July 2016 Special Dividend”). The July 2016 Special Dividend of approximately $28,150 was paid on August 4, 2016 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on July 21, 2016.

Note 8 – Retirement Plan

The Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan is an unfunded, non-qualified deferred compensation plan that will provide eligible participants with monthly benefits upon retirement, disability or death, subject to certain conditions. The monthly benefit is based upon each participant’s earnings and his or her number of years of service. Administrative expenses include the following net periodic benefit costs:

As described in Note 12 – “Recent Accounting Pronouncements”, upon our adoption of ASU 2017-07 in fiscal 2018, service cost will be presented together with other employee compensation costs and the remainder of net periodic benefit cost will be presented separately, below Income from Operations on the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Note 9 – Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

The table below sets forth the changes to accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCL”) for the thirty-nine weeks ended March 30, 2017 and March 24, 2016. These changes are all related to our defined benefit pension plan.

The reclassifications out of AOCL for the quarter and thirty-nine weeks ended March 30, 2017 and March 24, 2016 were as follows:

Note 10 – Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

We are currently a party to various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. While management presently believes that the ultimate outcomes of these proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not materially affect our Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows, legal proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable outcomes could occur. Unfavorable outcomes could include substantial monetary damages in excess of any appropriate accruals which management has established. Were such unfavorable final outcomes to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Note 11 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Authoritative guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels:

The carrying values of cash, trade accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values at each balance sheet date because of the short-term maturities and nature of these balances.

11

Table of Contents

The carrying value of our revolving credit facility borrowings approximates fair value at each balance sheet date because interest rates on this instrument approximate current market rates (Level 2 criteria), the short-term maturity and nature of this balance. In addition, there has been no significant change in our inherent credit risk.

The following table summarizes the carrying value and fair value estimate of our current and long-term debt, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs:

The estimated fair value of our long-term debt was determined using a market approach based upon Level 2 observable inputs, which estimates fair value based on interest rates currently offered on loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality or broker quotes. In addition, there have been no significant changes in the underlying assets securing our long-term debt.

Note 12 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The following recent accounting pronouncements have been adopted in the current fiscal year:

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09 “Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718)”. This ASU is part of the FASB’s simplification initiative. The areas for simplification in this update involve several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, forfeitures, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, statutory withholding requirements, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The Company early adopted this guidance during the first quarter of fiscal 2017. We now recognize forfeitures as they occur and excess tax benefits or deficiencies as a component of income tax expense. The cumulative adjustment for the impact of this change in accounting principle was immaterial. Cash flows related to excess tax benefits will prospectively be classified as operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Prior periods have not been adjusted. The Company anticipates increased volatility in income tax expense, mainly in the second quarter of each fiscal year, since historically most equity compensation granted in prior periods vests during that quarter.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-05 “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement”. This update provides guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license or service contract. This update became effective for the Company beginning the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The adoption of ASU 2015-05 did not have a material impact to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03 “Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs”. This update requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. ASU 2015-03 was effective for the Company beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The adoption of this standard required restatement of our Consolidated Balance Sheets. As a result, Other assets decreased approximately $244 and $262 as of June 30, 2016 and March 24, 2016, respectively, and these amounts were allocated within Current maturities of long term debt and Long term debt. Adoption of ASU 2015-03 did not have an effect on the Company’s stockholders’ equity, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02 “Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis”. This update focuses on a reporting company’s consolidation evaluation to determine whether it should consolidate certain legal entities. The guidance ASU 2015-02 became effective for the Company beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The adoption of ASU 2015-02 did not have any impact to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

12

Table of Contents

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15 “Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Topic 205-40)”. The guidance requires management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date the financial statements are issued. An entity must provide certain disclosures if conditions or events raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. ASU 2014-15 was effective for the Company beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

The following recent accounting pronouncements have not yet been adopted:

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07 “Compensation—Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost”. The amendments in this update require the service cost component of pension expense to be disaggregated from the other components of net periodic benefit cost and be presented in the same line items as other employee compensation costs. All other components of net periodic benefit cost must be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations. This update is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted as long as it is early adopted in the first interim period of an annual year and financial statements have not been issued or made available for issuance prior to adoption. The amendments in this update should be applied using a retrospective transition method, however, a practical expedient is offered with regard to the prior comparative periods. The Company plans to early adopt this update beginning in fiscal 2018 and does not expect the impact of this new guidance to have a significant impact on its financial position, results of operations and disclosures.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-17 “Consolidation (Topic 810): Interests Held Through Related Parties That Are Under Common Control”. This update is amending ASU 2015-02 and affects reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate a variable interest entity in certain situations involving entities under common control. ASU 2016-17 will be effective for the Company in fiscal 2018 and will require retrospective application. The Company does not expect ASU 2016-17 to have any impact to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15 “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments”. This update addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the perceived diversity in practice. The amendments in this update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The amendments in this update should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. The Company does not expect a material impact to our statement of cash flows once ASU 2016-15 is adopted in fiscal 2019.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)”. The primary goal of this update is to require the lessee to recognize all lease commitments, both operating and finance, by initially recording a lease asset and liability on the balance sheet at the lease commencement date. Additionally, enhanced qualitative and quantitative disclosures will be required. ASU 2016-02 is effective for public business entities for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. This new guidance will be effective for the Company beginning in fiscal year 2020 and we do not expect to early adopt. This guidance must be adopted using a modified retrospective approach. The Company expects this new guidance to have a significant impact on its total assets and total liabilities, and lead to increased financial statement disclosures.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” and created a new ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and added ASC Subtopic 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs — Contracts with Customers. The guidance in this update supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance throughout the industry topics of the codification. Under the new guidance, an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Several other amendments have been subsequently released, each of which provide additional narrow scope clarifications or improvements. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Deferral of the Effective Date” which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for one year. Consequently, this new revenue recognition guidance will be effective for the Company beginning in fiscal year 2019, which is our anticipated adoption date. We are currently evaluating the method of adoption. We have completed our initial analysis of this accounting standard update which included a review of all material customer contracts and we currently do not believe this standard will have a material impact to our recognition of revenue.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

OVERVIEW

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Our fiscal year ends on the final Thursday of June each year, and typically consists of fifty-two weeks (four thirteen week quarters). Fiscal 2016 consisted of fifty-three weeks, with our fourth quarter containing fourteen weeks. Additional information on the comparability of the periods presented is as follows:

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 subsidiaries, JBSS Ventures, LLC and Sanfilippo (Shanghai) Trading Co. Ltd. Our Company’s Credit Facility and Mortgage Facility, as defined below, are sometimes collectively referred to as “our financing arrangements.”

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 a variety of private brands 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, almond butter, cashew butter, candy and confections, snacks and trail mixes, snack bites, sunflower kernels, dried fruit, corn snacks, sesame sticks and other sesame snack products under private brands and brand names. We distribute our products in the consumer, commercial ingredients and contract packaging distribution channels.

The Company’s long-term objective to drive profitable growth, as identified in our strategic plan (the “Strategic Plan”), includes continuing to grow Fisher and Orchard Valley Harvest into leading nut brands by focusing on consumers demanding quality nuts in the snacking, recipe and produce categories and providing integrated nut solutions to grow non-branded business at existing key customers in each distribution channel. We executed on our Strategic Plan during fiscal 2017 by expanding our distribution and product offerings for our Fisher recipe nuts and Orchard Valley Harvest produce nuts and by expanding distribution of peanuts and trail mixes to contract packaging customers. In the third quarter of fiscal 2017, our Board of Directors adopted a dividend policy under which it intends to pay an annual cash dividend on its common stock and Class A common stock. It is contemplated that this annual dividend would be declared around the conclusion of the Company’s fiscal year and paid in the first quarter of each fiscal year. One of the key factors that will be taken into account in determining the annual dividend amount (and whether any such dividend will be paid) will be the liquidity position of the Company, in particular the borrowing availability under our Credit Facility.

We face a number of challenges in the future which include, among others, volatile commodity costs for certain tree nuts, especially cashews, and intensified competition for market share from both private brand and name brand nut products. Acquisition costs for almonds declined significantly during the second half of fiscal 2016 which has resulted in lower selling prices for products that contain almonds. Since sales of almonds comprise a significant percentage of our total net sales, we anticipate that lower selling prices will continue to result in a significant reduction in net sales in future comparisons until the impact of lower retail prices ultimately drives increased sales volume for almonds.

We will continue to focus on seeking profitable business opportunities to further utilize our additional production capacity at our primary manufacturing, processing and distribution facility located in Elgin, Illinois (the “Elgin Site”). We expect to maintain our recent level of promotional, sampling and advertising activity for our Fisher and Orchard Valley Harvest brands. We will continue to face the ongoing challenges specific to our business, such as food safety and the maintenance and growth of our customer base. See the information referenced in Part II, Item 1A — “Risk Factors” of this report for additional information about our risks, challenges and uncertainties.

QUARTERLY HIGHLIGHTS

Our net sales of $173.4 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 decreased 19.6% from our net sales of $215.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2016. Net sales for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017 decreased by $75.5 million, or 10.5%, to $645.0 million from net sales of $720.5 million for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2016.

Sales volume, measured as pounds sold to customers, decreased 6.8 million pounds, or 10.8%, in the third quarter of fiscal 2017, compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2016. Sales volume decreased 3.8 million pounds, or 1.9%, compared to the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2016.

Gross profit increased by $2.8 million and our gross profit margin, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 16.4% for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to 11.9% for the third quarter of fiscal 2016. Gross profit increased by $4.5 million in the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017, and our gross profit margin increased to 16.8% from 14.4% compared to the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2016.

Total operating expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 decreased by $2.1 million, or 10.6%, compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2016. As a percentage of net sales, total operating expenses in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 increased to 10.4% from 9.3% for the third quarter of fiscal 2016. For the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017, total operating expenses decreased by $3.3 million, but increased to 9.5% of net sales compared to 9.0% for the first three quarters of fiscal 2016.

The total value of inventories on hand at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2017 decreased by $5.9 million, or 2.9%, in comparison to the total value of inventories on hand at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2016.

We have seen a significant increase in acquisition cost for pecans in the 2016 crop year (which falls into our current 2017 fiscal year), as well as an increase in cashew acquisition costs. Conversely, we have seen acquisition costs for domestic tree nuts such as almonds decrease in the 2016 crop year. We have completed procurement of inshell walnuts during the first half of fiscal 2017, and the final total payments due to our walnut growers were determined in the current quarter. The final prices paid, and remaining to be paid to the walnut growers, were based upon current market prices and other factors, such as crop size and export demand. A large majority of payments to walnut growers were completed in the third quarter of fiscal 2017. Remaining amounts to be paid to walnut growers as of March 30, 2017 are final and are not subject to revision. We increased our walnut grower liability by approximately $2.5 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2017, as the final payments to walnut growers were slightly more than the amounts estimated at the end of last quarter. This increase is insignificant compared to our total inshell walnut procurement costs for the year, and the adjustment to cost of sales was immaterial to our results of operations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Sales

Our net sales decreased 19.6% to $173.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to net sales of $215.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2016. The decrease in net sales in the quarterly comparison was primarily due to a 10.8% decrease in sales volume, which is defined as pounds sold to customers, and a 9.9% decline in the weighted average sales price per pound which was driven primarily by lower selling prices for almonds. Sales volume declined in all distribution channels.

For the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017 our net sales were $645.0 million, a decrease of $75.5 million, or 10.5%, compared to the same period of fiscal 2016. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to an 8.8% decrease in the weighted average sales price per pound, which primarily occurred as a result of lower selling prices for almonds and walnuts. The decrease in net sales was also partially due to a 1.9% decrease in sales volume. Sales volume increased in the consumer and contract packaging distribution channels, and declined in the commercial ingredients distribution channel. The sales volume decline was mainly attributable to lower sales volume for almonds and mixed nuts, which was offset in part by sales volume increases for peanuts, snack and trail mixes and walnuts.

The following table summarizes sales by product type as a percentage of total gross sales. The information is based upon gross sales, rather than net sales, because certain adjustments, such as promotional discounts, are not allocable to product type.

The following table shows a comparison of net sales by distribution channel (dollars in thousands):

Table of Contents

The following table shows a comparison of net sales by distribution channel (dollars in thousands):

Net sales in the consumer distribution channel decreased by 14.8% in dollars and sales volume decreased 6.1% in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2016. The sales volume decrease was driven by decreased sales of cashews and mixed nuts with private brand customers and decreased sales of our branded products. Sales volume for Fisher recipe nuts decreased 3.2% due to inventory reduction initiatives implemented by some customers during the current third quarter. Sales volume for Fisher snack nuts decreased 9.4%, primarily as a result of decreased merchandising activity. A 5.5% decrease in combined sales volume of Orchard Valley Harvest and Sunshine Country produce brands also contributed to the sales volume decrease. The decrease in sales volume for our produce brands resulted from a decline in sales volume for Sunshine Country produce products due to lost distribution, which was partially offset by a 4.6% increase in sales volume for our Orchard Valley Harvest produce products due to increased merchandising activity.

In the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017, net sales in the consumer distribution channel decreased by 5.8% in dollars but increased 3.3% in sales volume, compared to the same period of fiscal 2016. Sales volume for Fisher recipe nuts increased 17.8% due to distribution gains with new customers, the introduction of larger package sizes for walnuts, and increased promotional activity. Sales volume of our branded produce products increased 38.8% in the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017 driven by increased merchandising activity. Private brand snack sales volume increased approximately 5.2% in the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017. Partially offsetting the above noted sales volume increases, sales volume for Fisher snack nuts decreased 3.5% primarily for the same reasons cited in the quarterly comparison.

Net sales in the commercial ingredients distribution channel decreased by 38.9% in dollars and 26.3% in sales volume in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2016 which resulted mainly from lost business with a bulk almond butter customer, which occurred in the second quarter of fiscal 2017. In the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017, net sales in the commercial ingredients distribution channel decreased by 30.4% in dollars and 19.1% in sales volume compared to the same period of fiscal 2016. The sales volume decrease for the thirty-nine week period was primarily due to the loss of a bulk almond butter customer and decreased sales of bulk inshell walnuts to international customers.

Net sales in the contract packaging distribution channel decreased by 6.1% in dollars and 3.9% in sales volume in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2016. The sales volume decrease for the quarterly period was primarily due to a reduction in merchandising activity implemented by one customer in this channel. In the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017, net sales in the contract packaging distribution channel increased by 4.3% in dollars and 5.6% in sales volume compared to the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2016. The sales volume increase for the thirty-nine week period was primarily due to increased sales of snack and trail mixes, peanuts, cashews and almonds to existing customers.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased by $2.8 million, or 11.1%, to $28.4 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2016. Our gross profit margin, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 16.4% for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to 11.9% for the third quarter of fiscal 2016. The increases in gross profit and gross profit margin were mainly attributable to lower acquisition costs for almonds and improved alignment of selling prices and acquisition costs for pecans and walnuts.

Gross profit increased by $4.5 million, or 4.3%, to $108.3 million for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017 compared to the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2016. Our gross profit margin increased to 16.8% for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017 compared to 14.4% for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2016. The increases in gross profit and gross profit margin primarily occurred for the same reasons cited in the quarterly comparison.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 decreased by $2.1 million to $18.0 million. Total operating expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 increased to 10.4% of net sales from 9.3% of net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2016 as a result of a lower sales base.

Selling expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 were $10.3 million, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 9.3%, from the third quarter of fiscal 2016. The decrease was driven primarily by a $1.0 million decrease in advertising expenses due to a later Easter holiday compared to fiscal 2016.

Administrative expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 were $7.7 million, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 12.1%, from the third quarter of fiscal 2016. The decrease was driven primarily by a $0.8 million decrease in compensation related expenses.

Total operating expenses for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017 decreased by $3.3 million, or 5.1%, to $61.6 million. Operating expenses increased to 9.5% of net sales for the first three quarters of fiscal 2017 compared to 9.0% of net sales for the first three quarters of fiscal 2016 as a result of a lower sales base.

Selling expenses for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017 were $36.9 million, a decrease of $2.2 million, or 5.6%, from the amount recorded for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2016. The decrease was driven primarily by a $2.1 million decrease in sampling and advertising expense, a $0.9 million decrease in compensation related expenses, and a $0.8 million decrease in sales commissions expense. Partially offsetting these decreases was a $1.4 million increase in shipping expense due to an increase in delivered sales pounds.

Administrative expenses for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017 were $24.6 million, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 4.5%, compared to the same period of fiscal 2016. The decrease was due primarily to a $1.0 million decrease in compensation related expenses.

Income from Operations

Due to the factors discussed above, income from operations was $10.4 million, or 6.0% of net sales, for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to $5.5 million, or 2.5% of net sales, for the third quarter of fiscal 2016.

Due to the factors discussed above, income from operations increased to $46.7 million, or 7.2% of net sales, for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017 from $38.9 million, or 5.4% of net sales, for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2016.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $0.9 million for both the third quarter of fiscal 2017 and third quarter of fiscal 2016. Interest expense decreased 20.0% to $2.1 million for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017 compared to the same period of fiscal 2016. The decrease in interest expense for the thirty-nine week comparison was due primarily to lower debt levels during the first half of the current fiscal year.

Rental and Miscellaneous Expense, Net

Net rental and miscellaneous expense was $0.4 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to $0.3 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2016. Net rental and miscellaneous expense was $1.1 million for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017 compared to $1.2 million for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2016.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was $2.9 million, or 31.1% of income before income taxes (the “Effective Tax Rate”), for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to $1.2 million, or 27.7% of income before income taxes, for the third quarter of fiscal 2016. For the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017, income tax expense was $14.2 million, or 32.5% of income before income taxes, compared to $12.0 million, or 34.2% of income before income taxes, for the comparable period last year. The Effective Tax Rate for the quarterly and thirty-nine week comparison was favorably impacted approximately 2.4% and 2.2%, respectively, by excess tax benefits that prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-09 were recorded in Capital in excess of par value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Net Income

Net income was $6.3 million, or $0.56 per common share basic and $0.55 per common share diluted, for the third quarter of fiscal 2017, compared to $3.1 million, or $0.27 per common share (basic and diluted), for the third quarter of fiscal 2016.

Net income was $29.4 million, or $2.60 per common share basic and $2.58 per share diluted, for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017, compared to net income of $23.1 million, or $2.06 per common share basic and $2.04 per share diluted, for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2016.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

General

The primary uses of cash are to fund our current operations, fulfill contractual obligations, pursue our Strategic Plan and repay indebtedness. Also, various uncertainties could result in additional uses of cash. The primary sources of cash are results of operations and availability under our Credit Agreement, dated February 7, 2008 and subsequently amended most recently in July 2016 (as amended, the “Credit Facility”), that provides a revolving loan commitment and letter of credit subfacility. 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. Our available credit under our Credit Facility has allowed us to devote more funds to promote our products (especially our Fisher and Orchard Valley Harvest brands), reinvest in the Company through capital expenditures, develop new products, pay a special cash dividend the past five years, consummate business acquisitions and explore other growth strategies outlined in our Strategic Plan.

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 and nut products we buy and sell. Current market trends in nut prices and crop estimates also impact nut procurement.

The following table sets forth certain cash flow information for the first three quarters of fiscal 2017 and 2016, respectively (dollars in thousands):

Table of Contents

Operating Activities Net cash provided by operating activities was $15.4 million for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017 compared to $41.0 million for the comparative period of fiscal 2016. This decrease in cash was due primarily to a $44.8 million increase in inventories during the first three quarters of fiscal 2017 compared to a $9.3 million increase in inventories during the same nine-month period last year.

Total inventories were $201.4 million at March 30, 2017, an increase of $44.8 million, or 28.6%, from the inventory balance at June 30, 2016, and a decrease of $5.9 million, or 2.9%, from the inventory balance at March 24, 2016. The increase at March 30, 2017 compared to June 30, 2016 was primarily due to larger quantities of pecans and walnuts on hand and higher acquisition costs for those commodities. The decrease in inventories at March 30, 2017 compared to March 24, 2016 was primarily driven by lower quantities of finished goods combined with a lower weighted average cost per pound for finished goods.

Raw nut and dried fruit input stocks, some of which are classified as work in process, decreased by 0.9 million pounds, or 1.2%, at March 30, 2017 compared to March 24, 2016. The weighted average cost per pound of raw nut input stocks on hand at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2017 increased 1.4% compared to the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2016 due to higher acquisition costs for pecans, which were largely offset by lower acquisition costs for almonds.

Net accounts receivable were $59.4 million at March 30, 2017, a decrease of $18.7 million, or 23.9%, from the balance at June 30, 2016, and a decrease of $12.1 million, or 16.9%, from the balance at March 24, 2016. The decrease in net accounts receivable from June 30, 2016 to March 30, 2017 is due primarily to lower dollar sales in March 2017 compared to June 2016.

Accounts payable were $40.2 million at March 30, 2017, a decrease of $3.5 million, or 8.1%, from the balance at June 30, 2016, and a decrease of $19.1 million, or 32.3%, from the balance at March 24, 2016. The decrease in accounts payable at March 30, 2017 compared to March 24, 2016 is mainly due to the earlier receipt and subsequent payment of this year’s pecan crop combined with fewer almond purchases at a lower cost compared to the thirty-nine weeks ended March 24, 2016.

Investing Activities Cash used in investing activities, primarily for capital expenditures, was $8.1 million during the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017 compared to $12.6 million for the same period last year. We expect total capital expenditures for new equipment, facility upgrades, and food safety enhancements for fiscal 2017 to be approximately $10 to $12.5 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 the cash requirements for planned capital expenditures.

Financing Cash used by financing activities was $7.6 million during the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017 compared to $27.5 million for the same period last year. Net short term borrowings under our Credit Facility provided $49.3 million during the first three quarters of fiscal 2017 compared to a usage of $6.0 million for repayments during the first three quarters of fiscal 2016. The increase in borrowings during the first three quarters of fiscal 2017 was primarily due to increased inventory purchases compared to the first three quarters of fiscal 2016. Offsetting the above noted source of cash were $56.5 million of dividends paid in the first three quarters of fiscal 2017 compared to $22.5 million during the same period last year.

Real Estate Matters

In August 2008, we completed the consolidation of our Chicago-based facilities into the Elgin Site. The Elgin Site includes both an office building and a warehouse. We are currently attempting to find additional tenants for the available space in the office building at the Elgin Site. Until additional tenant(s) are found, we will not receive the benefit of rental income associated with such space. Approximately 69% of the office building is currently vacant and approximately 75% of the office building has been built-out. There can be no assurance that we will be able to lease the unoccupied space and further capital expenditures may be necessary to lease the remaining space.

Financing Arrangements

On February 7, 2008, we entered into the Credit Facility with a bank group (the “Bank Lenders”) providing a $117.5 million revolving loan commitment and letter of credit subfacility. 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, as most recently amended in July 2016, is secured by substantially all of our assets other than machinery and equipment, real property, and fixtures and matures on July 7, 2021. 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”).

Credit Facility

At our election, borrowings under the Credit Facility currently 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 0.25% to 0.75% or (ii) a rate based upon the London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) plus an applicable margin based upon the borrowing base calculation, ranging from 1.25% to 1.75%.

At March 30, 2017, the weighted average interest rate for the Credit Facility was 2.57%. The terms of the Credit Facility contain covenants that, among other things, require us to restrict investments, indebtedness, acquisitions and certain sales of assets and limit annual cash dividends or distributions, transactions with affiliates, 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, until loan availability equals or exceeds $25.0 million for three consecutive months. All cash received from customers is required to be applied against the Credit Facility. The Bank Lenders have the option to accelerate and demand 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 the Company, non-compliance with the financial covenant or upon the occurrence of other defaults by us under the Credit Facility (including a default under the Mortgage Facility). As of March 30, 2017, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility, and we currently expect to be in compliance with the financial covenant in the Credit Facility for the foreseeable future. At March 30, 2017, we had $52.5 million of available credit under the Credit Facility. If this entire amount were borrowed at March 30, 2017, we would still be in compliance with all restrictive covenants under the Credit Facility.

Mortgage Facility

We are subject to interest rate resets for each of Tranche A and Tranche B. Specifically, on March 1, 2018 (the “Tranche A Reset Date” and the “Tranche B reset Date”) and every two years thereafter, 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 Tranche A is unacceptable to us, and we (i) do not have sufficient funds to repay the amount due with respect to Tranche A on the Tranche A Reset Date, or (ii) are unable to refinance the amount due with respect to Tranche A on the Tranche A Reset Date, on terms more favorable than the reset interest rate, then our interest expense would increase.

21

Table of Contents

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, 2016, at a floating rate of the greater of (i) one month LIBOR plus 3.50% per annum or (ii) 4.25%, payable monthly (the “Floating Rate”). 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, 2018. 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 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 March 30, 2017, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Mortgage Facility.

Selma Property

In September 2006, we sold our Selma, Texas properties (the “Selma 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 Properties has a ten-year term at a fair market value rent with three five-year renewal options. In September 2015, we exercised two of the five-year renewal options which extended the lease term to September 2026. The lease extension also reduced the monthly lease payment on the Selma Properties, beginning in September 2016, to reflect then current market conditions. One five-year renewal option remains. Also, we have an option to purchase the Selma Properties from the owner at 95% (100% in certain circumstances) of the then fair market value, but not less than the original $14.3 million purchase price. The provisions of the arrangement are not eligible for sale-leaseback accounting, and the $14.3 million was recorded as a debt obligation. No gain or loss was recorded on the Selma Properties transaction. As of March 30, 2017, $11.2 million of the debt obligation was outstanding.
