Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(columnar dollars in millions except per share amounts)

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The unaudited financial information reflects all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows for the periods presented. The adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, except as otherwise noted. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in the Conagra Brands, Inc. (the "Company", "Conagra Brands", "we", "us", or "our") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2020.

The results of operations for any quarter or a partial fiscal year period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for other periods or the full fiscal year.

Basis of Consolidation — The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Conagra Brands and all majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany investments, accounts, and transactions have been eliminated.

Revenue Recognition — Our revenues primarily consist of the sale of food products that are sold to retailers and foodservice customers through direct sales forces, broker, and distributor arrangements. These revenue contracts generally have single performance obligations. Revenue, which includes shipping and handling charges billed to the customer, is reported net of variable consideration and consideration payable to our customers, including applicable discounts, returns, allowances, trade promotion, consumer coupon redemption, unsaleable product, and other costs. Amounts billed and due from our customers are classified as receivables and require payment on a short-term basis and, therefore, we do not have any significant financing components.

We recognize revenue when (or as) performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of the goods to customers. Control is transferred upon delivery of the goods to the customer. Shipping and/or handling costs that occur before the customer obtains control of the goods are deemed to be fulfillment activities and are accounted for as fulfillment costs. We assess the goods and services promised in our customers' purchase orders and identify a performance obligation for each promise to transfer a good or service (or bundle of goods or services) that is distinct.

We offer various forms of trade promotions and the methodologies for determining these provisions are dependent on local customer pricing and promotional practices, which range from contractually fixed percentage price reductions to provisions based on actual occurrence or performance. Our promotional activities are conducted either through the retail trade or directly with consumers and include activities such as in-store displays and events, feature price discounts, consumer coupons, and loyalty programs. The costs of these activities are recognized at the time the related revenue is recorded, which normally precedes the actual cash expenditure. The recognition of certain promotional trade costs therefore requires management judgment regarding the volume of offers that will be redeemed by either the retail trade or consumer. These estimates are made using various techniques including historical data on performance of similar promotional programs. Differences between estimated expense and actual redemptions are recognized as a change in management estimate in a subsequent period.

Comprehensive Income — Comprehensive income includes net income, currency translation adjustments, certain derivative-related activity, and changes in prior service cost and net actuarial gains (losses) from pension (for amounts not in excess of the 10% corridor) and postretirement health care plans. For foreign investments we deem to be essentially permanent in nature, we do not provide for taxes on currency translation adjustments arising from converting an investment denominated in a foreign currency to U.S. dollars. When we determine that a foreign investment, as well as undistributed earnings, are no longer permanent in nature, estimated taxes will be provided for the related deferred tax liability (asset), if any, resulting from currency translation adjustments.

The following table details the accumulated balances for each component of other comprehensive income, net of tax:

|  | February 28, 2021 |  |  | May 31, 2020 |
Currency translation losses, net of reclassification adjustments |  | $ | (98.9 | ) |  | $ | (125.7 | )
Derivative adjustments, net of reclassification adjustments |  |  | 24.9 |  |  |  | 26.3 |
Pension and postretirement benefit obligations, net of reclassification adjustments |  |  | (11.7 | ) |  |  | (10.2 | )
Accumulated other comprehensive loss |  | $ | (85.7 | ) |  | $ | (109.6 | )

1Amounts in parentheses indicate income recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

Cash and cash equivalents — Cash and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition, including short-term time deposits and government agency and corporate obligations, are classified as cash and cash equivalents.

Reclassifications and other changes — Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with current year presentation.

Use of Estimates — Preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses as reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Accounting Changes — In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"), to update the methodology used to measure current expected credit losses. This ASU applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loans, net investments in leases, and trade accounts receivable as well as certain off-balance sheet credit exposures, such as loan commitments and guarantees. We adopted this ASU in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 using the modified retrospective transition method through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings in the period of adoption. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact to our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

3. RESTRUCTURING ACTIVITIES

Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan

In December 2018, our Board of Directors (the "Board") approved a restructuring and integration plan related to the ongoing integration of the operations of Pinnacle Foods Inc. ("Pinnacle"), which we acquired in October 2018 (the "Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan"), for the purpose of achieving significant cost synergies between the companies, as a result of which we expect to incur material charges for exit and disposal activities under U.S. GAAP. We expect to incur approximately $362.3 million of charges ($284.3 million of cash charges and $78.0 million of non-cash charges) for actions identified to date under the Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan. The Board and/or our senior management have authorized incurrence of these charges. In the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2021, we recognized charges of $5.4 million and $24.2 million, respectively, in connection with the Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan. In the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2020, we recognized charges of $19.6 million and $63.5 million, respectively, in connection with the Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan. We expect to incur costs related to the Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan over a multi-year period.

Conagra Restructuring Plan

In fiscal 2019, senior management initiated a restructuring plan (the "Conagra Restructuring Plan") for costs incurred in connection with actions taken to improve SG&A expense effectiveness and efficiencies and to optimize our supply chain network. Although we remain unable to make good faith estimates relating to the entire Conagra Restructuring Plan, we are reporting on actions initiated through the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2021, including the estimated amounts or range of amounts for each major type of costs expected to be incurred, and the charges that have resulted or will result in cash outflows. As of February 28, 2021, we have approved the incurrence of $171.0 million ($44.2 million of cash charges and $126.8 million of non-cash charges) for several projects associated with the Conagra Restructuring Plan. We have incurred or expect to incur $157.4 million of charges ($36.9 million of cash charges and $120.5 million of non-cash charges) for actions identified to date under the Conagra Restructuring Plan. In the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2021, we recognized charges of $10.0 million and $37.8 million, respectively, in connection with the Conagra Restructuring Plan. In the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2020, we recognized charges of $11.9 million and $52.6 million, respectively, in connection with the Conagra Restructuring Plan. We expect to incur costs related to the Conagra Restructuring Plan over a multi-year period.

4. LONG-TERM DEBT AND REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY

As of February 28, 2021, we had a revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") with a syndicate of financial institutions providing for a maximum aggregate principal amount outstanding at any one time of $1.6 billion (subject to increase to a maximum aggregate principal amount of $2.1 billion with the consent of the lenders). The Revolving Credit Facility matures on July 11, 2024 and is unsecured. The term of the Revolving Credit Facility may be extended for additional one-year or two-year periods from the then-applicable maturity date on an annual basis. As of February 28, 2021, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2021, we redeemed $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.20% senior notes due January 25, 2023, prior to maturity, resulting in a loss of $24.4 million within SG&A expenses as a cost of early extinguishment of debt.

On March 1, 2021, subsequent to the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2021, we repaid the remaining outstanding $195.9 million aggregate principal amount of our 9.75% subordinated notes on their maturity date.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2021, we issued $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 1.375% senior notes due November 1, 2027 (the "2027 Senior Notes"). We also redeemed the entire outstanding $1.20 billion aggregate principal amount of our 3.80% senior notes prior to their maturity date of October 22, 2021, resulting in a net loss of $44.3 million within SG&A expenses as a cost of early extinguishment of debt. This redemption was primarily funded using the net proceeds from the issuance of the 2027 Senior Notes.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2021, we also repaid the entire outstanding $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of our floating rate notes on the maturity date of October 9, 2020.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, we repaid the remaining outstanding $126.6 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.95% senior notes on their maturity date of August 15, 2020.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we entered into an unsecured term loan agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with a financial institution. The Credit Agreement provide d for delayed draw term loans to the Company in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $600.0 million (subject to increase to a maximum aggregate principal amount of $750.0 million) through October 9, 2020. We did not borrow under the Credit Agreement, and it was terminated in the second quarter of fiscal 2021.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we repaid $200.0 million of our borrowings under our term loan agreement (the "Term Loan Agreement"), which repayment consisted of $100.0 million of the three-year tranche loans and $100.0 million of the five-year tranche loans. In the third quarter of fiscal 2020, we repaid the remaining borrowings under the Term Loan Agreement of $200.0 million, which repayment consisted of $100.0 million of the three-year tranche loans and $100.0 million of the five-year tranche loans. The Term Loan Agreement was terminated after these repayments.

In fiscal 2020, we also redeemed the entire outstanding $525.0 million aggregate principal amount of our floating rate notes due October 22, 2020 in two separate redemptions totaling $250.0 million and $275.0 million in the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2020, respectively.

The Revolving Credit Facility generally requires our ratio of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") to interest expense not to be less than 3.0 to 1.0 and our ratio of funded debt to EBITDA not to exceed certain decreasing specified levels, ranging from 4.75 through the first quarter of fiscal 2022 to 3.75 from the second quarter of fiscal 2023 and thereafter, with each ratio to be calculated on a rolling four-quarter basis. As of February 28, 2021, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Net interest expense consists of:

|  | Thirteen weeks ended |  |  | Thirty-nine weeks ended |

5. GOODWILL AND OTHER IDENTIFIABLE INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The change in the carrying amount of goodwill for the first three quarters of fiscal 2021, excluding amounts classified as held for sale (see Note 2), was as follows:

|  | Grocery & Snacks |  |  | Refrigerated & Frozen |  |  | International |  |  | Foodservice |  |  | Total |
Balance as of May 31, 2020 |  | $ | 4,698.2 |  |  | $ | 5,648.3 |  |  | $ | 290.5 |  |  | $ | 752.0 |  |  | $ | 11,389.0 |
Currency translation |  |  | — |  |  |  | — |  |  |  | 6.6 |  |  |  | — |  |  |  | 6.6 |
Balance as of February 28, 2021 |  | $ | 4,698.2 |  |  | $ | 5,648.3 |  |  | $ | 297.1 |  |  | $ | 752.0 |  |  | $ | 11,395.6 |

Other identifiable intangible assets, excluding amounts classified as held for sale, were as follows:

|  | February 28, 2021 |  |  | May 31, 2020 |
|  | Gross Carrying Amount |  |  | Accumulated Amortization |  |  | Gross Carrying Amount |  |  | Accumulated Amortization |
Non-amortizing intangible assets |  | $ | 3,390.6 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 3,388.7 |  |  | $ | — |
Amortizing intangible assets |  |  | 1,237.4 |  |  |  | 364.4 |  |  |  | 1,235.6 |  |  |  | 319.2 |
|  | $ | 4,628.0 |  |  | $ | 364.4 |  |  | $ | 4,624.3 |  |  | $ | 319.2 |

In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, management changed its reporting of certain brands within two reporting units in our Refrigerated & Frozen segment. The total goodwill in our Refrigerated & Frozen segment remains unchanged, but we reassigned goodwill between the two reporting units. We evaluated goodwill for impairment both prior to and subsequent to the change, and there were no impairments. For the Sides, Components, Enhancers reporting unit that was impacted by the management change, based upon

12

a quantitative impairment test, the excess fair value over the carrying value was approximately 20%, which remained relatively consistent with our prior year quantitative impairment test.

Fair value is typically estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis which requires us to estimate the future cash flows as well as to select a risk-adjusted discount rate to measure the present value of the anticipated cash flows. When determining future cash flow estimates, we consider historical results adjusted to reflect current and anticipated operating conditions. We estimate cash flows for a reporting unit over a discrete period (typically five years) and a terminal period (considering expected long-term growth rates and trends). We used a discount rate for our Sides, Components, Enhancers reporting unit of 6.25% and a terminal growth rate slightly in excess of 1%. Estimating the fair value of individual reporting units requires us to make assumptions and estimates in such areas as future economic conditions, industry-specific conditions, product pricing, and necessary capital expenditures. The use of different assumptions or estimates for future cash flows, discount rates, or terminal growth rates could produce substantially different estimates of the fair value of the reporting units.

For our non-amortizing intangible assets, which are comprised of brands and trademarks, we use a "relief from royalty" methodology in estimating fair value. During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we recorded impairment charges totaling $19.3 million within our Refrigerated & Frozen segment and Grocery & Snacks segment for certain brands for which management changed its business strategy and that continued to have lower than expected sales and profit margins. This impairment was included within SG&A expenses.

Amortizing intangible assets, carrying a remaining weighted average life of approximately 20 years, are principally composed of customer relationships and acquired intellectual property. Amortization expense was $14.9 million and $44.8 million for the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2021, respectively, and $14.9 million and $44.9 million for the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2020, respectively. Based on amortizing assets recognized in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of February 28, 2021, amortization expense is estimated to average $54.5 million for each of the next five years.

6. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Our operations are exposed to market risks from adverse changes in commodity prices affecting the cost of raw materials and energy, foreign currency exchange rates, and interest rates. In the normal course of business, these risks are managed through a variety of strategies, including the use of derivatives.

Commodity and commodity index futures and option contracts are used from time to time to economically hedge commodity input prices on items such as natural gas, vegetable oils, proteins, packaging materials, dairy, grains, and electricity. Generally, we economically hedge a portion of our anticipated consumption of commodity inputs for periods of up to 36 months. We may enter into longer-term economic hedges on particular commodities, if deemed appropriate. As of February 28, 2021, we had economically hedged certain portions of our anticipated consumption of commodity inputs using derivative instruments with expiration dates through October 2022.

In order to reduce exposures related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, we enter into forward exchange, option, or swap contracts from time to time for transactions denominated in a currency other than the applicable functional currency. This includes, but is not limited to, hedging against foreign currency risk in purchasing inventory and capital equipment, sales of finished goods, and future settlement of foreign-denominated assets and liabilities. As of February 28, 2021, we had economically hedged certain portions of our foreign currency risk in anticipated transactions using derivative instruments with expiration dates through November 2021.

From time to time, we may use derivative instruments, including interest rate swaps, to reduce risk related to changes in interest rates. This includes, but is not limited to, hedging against increasing interest rates prior to the issuance of long-term debt and hedging the fair value of our senior long-term debt.

Derivatives Designated as Cash Flow Hedges

During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, we entered into deal-contingent forward starting interest rate swap contracts to hedge a portion of the interest rate risk related to our issuance of long-term debt to help finance the acquisition of Pinnacle. We settled these contracts during the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and deferred a $47.5 million gain in accumulated other comprehensive income that is being amortized as a reduction of interest expense over the lives of the related debt instruments. The unamortized amount at February 28, 2021 was $39.0 million. The portion written off in fiscal 2021 in connection with the second quarter early extinguishment of debt totaled $0.5 million (see Note 4).

Economic Hedges of Forecasted Cash Flows

Many of our derivatives do not qualify for, and we do not currently designate certain commodity or foreign currency derivatives to achieve, hedge accounting treatment. We reflect realized and unrealized gains and losses from derivatives used to economically hedge anticipated commodity consumption and to mitigate foreign currency cash flow risk in earnings immediately within general corporate expense (within cost of goods sold). The gains and losses are reclassified to segment operating results in the period in which the underlying item being economically hedged is recognized in cost of goods sold. In the event that management determines a particular derivative entered into as an economic hedge of a forecasted commodity purchase has ceased to function as an economic hedge, we cease recognizing further gains and losses on such derivatives in corporate expense and begin recognizing such gains and losses within segment operating results immediately.

Economic Hedges of Fair Values — Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We may use options and cross currency swaps to economically hedge the fair value of certain monetary assets and liabilities (including intercompany balances) denominated in a currency other than the functional currency. These derivatives are marked-to-market with gains and losses immediately recognized in SG&A expenses. These substantially offset the foreign currency transaction gains or losses recognized as values of the monetary assets or liabilities being economically hedged change.

All derivative instruments are recognized on our balance sheets at fair value (refer to Note 14 for additional information related to fair value measurements). The fair value of derivative assets is recognized within prepaid expenses and other current assets, while the fair value of derivative liabilities is recognized within other accrued liabilities. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, we offset certain derivative asset and liability balances, as well as certain amounts representing rights to reclaim cash collateral and obligations to return cash collateral, where master netting agreements provide for legal right of setoff. At February 28, 2021 and May 31, 2020, $0.1 million, representing an obligation to return cash collateral, and $1.1 million, representing a right to reclaim cash collateral, respectively, were included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Derivative assets and liabilities and amounts representing a right to reclaim cash collateral or an obligation to return cash collateral were reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows:

|  | February 28, 2021 |  |  | May 31, 2020 |
Prepaid expenses and other current assets |  | $ | 8.8 |  |  | $ | 8.0 |
Other accrued liabilities |  |  | 3.5 |  |  |  | 0.4 |

The following table presents our derivative assets and liabilities, at February 28, 2021, on a gross basis, prior to the setoff of $1.6 million to total derivative assets and $1.5 million to total derivative liabilities where legal right of setoff existed:

|  | Derivative Assets |  |  | Derivative Liabilities |
|  | Balance Sheet Location |  | Fair Value |  |  | Balance Sheet Location |  | Fair Value |
Commodity contracts |  | Prepaid expenses and other current assets |  | $ | 10.4 |  |  | Other accrued liabilities |  | $ | 1.5 |
Foreign exchange contracts |  | Prepaid expenses and other current assets |  |  | — |  |  | Other accrued liabilities |  |  | 3.5 |

Total gains (losses) from derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments |  | $ | 1.4 |  |  | $ | (12.5 | )

As of February 28, 2021, our open commodity contracts had a notional value (defined as notional quantity times market value per notional quantity unit) of $55.0 million and $45.2 million for purchase and sales contracts, respectively. As of May 31, 2020, our open commodity contracts had a notional value of $102.0 million and $3.4 million for purchase and sales contracts, respectively. The notional amount of our foreign currency forward contracts as of February 28, 2021 and May 31, 2020 was $104.4 million and $107.6 million, respectively.

We enter into certain commodity, interest rate, and foreign exchange derivatives with a diversified group of counterparties. We continually monitor our positions and the credit ratings of the counterparties involved and limit the amount of credit exposure to any one party. These transactions may expose us to potential losses due to the risk of nonperformance by these counterparties. We have not incurred a material loss due to nonperformance in any period presented and do not expect to incur any such material loss. We also enter into futures and options transactions through various regulated exchanges.

At February 28, 2021, the maximum amount of loss due to the credit risk of the counterparties, had the counterparties failed to perform according to the terms of the contract, was $3.2 million.

7. SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS

For the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2021, we recognized total stock-based compensation expense (including restricted stock units, cash-settled restricted stock units, performance shares, and performance-based restricted stock units) of $10.4 million and $42.4 million, respectively. For the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2020, we recognized total stock-based compensation expense of $9.3 million and $33.8 million, respectively. In the first three quarters of fiscal 2021, we granted 0.9 million restricted stock units at a weighted average grant date price of $36.70 and 0.5 million performance shares at a weighted average grant date price of $36.82.

Performance shares are granted to selected executives and other key employees with vesting contingent upon meeting various Company-wide performance goals. The performance goals for the three-year performance periods ending in fiscal 2021 (the "2021 performance period") and fiscal 2022 ("2022 performance period") are based on our diluted earnings per share ("EPS") compound annual growth rate ("CAGR"), subject to certain adjustments, measured over the defined performance periods. The performance goal for one-third of the target number of performance shares for the three-year performance period ending in fiscal 2023 (the "2023 performance period") is based on our fiscal 2021 diluted EPS CAGR, subject to certain adjustments. The performance goal for the final two-thirds of the target number of performance shares granted for the 2023 performance period is expected to be set following the end of fiscal 2021. For each of the 2021 performance period, 2022 performance period, and 2023 performance period, the awards actually earned will range from zero to two hundred percent of the targeted number of performance shares for such performance period. Dividend equivalents are paid on the portion of performance shares actually earned at our regular dividend rate in additional shares of common stock.

15

Awards, if earned, will be paid in shares of our common stock. Subject to limited exceptions set forth in our performance share plan, any shares earned will be distributed after the end of the performance period, and only if the participant continues to be employed with the Company through the date of distribution. For awards where performance against the performance target has not been certified, the value of the performance shares is adjusted based upon the market price of our common stock and current forecasted performance against the performance targets at the end of each reporting period and amortized as compensation expense over the vesting period. Forfeitures are accounted for as they occur.

8. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is calculated on the basis of weighted average outstanding shares of common stock. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of basic weighted average outstanding shares of common stock adjusted for the dilutive effect of stock options, restricted stock unit awards, and other dilutive securities.

The following table reconciles the income and average share amounts used to compute both basic and diluted earnings per share:

|  | Thirteen weeks ended |  |  | Thirty-nine weeks ended |
|  | February 28, 2021 |  |  | February 23, 2020 |  |  | February 28, 2021 |  |  | February 23, 2020 |
Net income attributable to Conagra Brands, Inc. common stockholders: |  | $ | 281.4 |  |  | $ | 204.4 |  |  | $ | 989.3 |  |  | $ | 638.7 |
Weighted average shares outstanding: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Basic weighted average shares outstanding |  |  | 485.7 |  |  |  | 487.4 |  |  |  | 487.4 |  |  |  | 487.1 |
Add: Dilutive effect of stock options, restricted stock unit awards, and other dilutive securities |  |  | 1.9 |  |  |  | 1.4 |  |  |  | 1.8 |  |  |  | 1.3 |
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding |  |  | 487.6 |  |  |  | 488.8 |  |  |  | 489.2 |  |  |  | 488.4 |

For the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2021, there were 0.5 million and 0.7 million stock options outstanding, respectively, that were excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average shares because the effect was antidilutive. For the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2020, there were 1.7 million and 1.9 million stock options outstanding, respectively, that were excluded from the calculation.

9. INVENTORIES

The major classes of inventories were as follows:

|  | February 28, 2021 |  |  | May 31, 2020 |
Raw materials and packaging |  | $ | 274.8 |  |  | $ | 291.6 |
Work in process |  |  | 157.6 |  |  |  | 125.2 |
Finished goods |  |  | 1,067.4 |  |  |  | 877.7 |
Supplies and other |  |  | 79.4 |  |  |  | 73.3 |
Total |  | $ | 1,579.2 |  |  | $ | 1,367.8 |

10. INCOME TAXES

In the third quarter of fiscal 2021 and 2020, we recognized income tax expense of $101.6 million and $68.9 million, respectively. In the first three quarters of fiscal 2021 and 2020, we recognized income tax expense of $269.0 million and $141.5 million, respectively. The effective tax rate (calculated as the ratio of income tax expense to pre-tax income, inclusive of equity method investment earnings) was 26.5% and 25.2% for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 and 2020, respectively. The effective tax rate for the first three quarters of fiscal 2021 and 2020 was 21.3% and 18.1%, respectively.

The effective tax rate in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 reflected additional tax expense associated with non-deductible goodwill related to the divestiture of the Peter Pan® peanut butter business.

The effective tax rate for the first three quarters of fiscal 2021 reflects the above-cited item, as well as release of valuation allowance associated with the capital gains from the divestiture of the Peter Pan® peanut butter business, a benefit from statute lapses on state tax issues that were previously reserved, and a benefit resulting from the regulation issued by the U.S. Treasury and Internal Revenue Service on certain provisions of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

16

The effective tax rate in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 reflect ed additional state income tax expense related to uncertain tax positions and an adjustment of valuation allowance associated with the Wesson® oil business.

The effective tax rate for the first three quarters of fiscal 2020 reflected the above-cited items, as well as the impact of benefits from the settlement of tax issues that were previously reserved, a change in deferred state tax rates due to the integration of Pinnacle activity for tax purposes, a tax planning strategy that will allow utilization of certain state attributes, state tax law changes, additional tax expense associated with non-deductible goodwill related to assets for which an impairment charge was recognized, a benefit from statute lapses on tax issues that were previously reserved, and an income tax benefit associated with a deduction of a prior year federal income tax matter.

The amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions was $34.4 million as of February 28, 2021 and $35.8 million as of May 31, 2020. Included in those amounts was $0.8 million and $0.7 million, respectively, for tax positions for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. The gross unrecognized tax benefits excluded related liabilities for gross interest and penalties of $8.7 million and $7.4 million as of February 28, 2021 and May 31, 2020, respectively.

The net amount of unrecognized tax benefits at February 28, 2021 and May 31, 2020 that, if recognized, would impact the Company's effective tax rate was $29.2 million and $30.3 million, respectively. Included in those amounts is $6.5 million that would be reported in discontinued operations. Recognition of these tax benefits would have a favorable impact on the Company's effective tax rate.

We estimate that it is reasonably possible that the amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by up to $12.1 million over the next twelve months due to various federal, state, and foreign audit settlements and the expiration of statutes of limitations.

As of February 28, 2021 and May 31, 2020, we had a deferred tax asset of $654.7 million and $685.2 million, respectively, that was generated from the capital loss realized on the sale of the Private Brands operations with corresponding valuation allowances of $653.7 million and $685.2 million, respectively, to reflect the uncertainty regarding the ultimate realization of the tax asset. Federal capital loss carryforwards related to the Private Brands divestiture will expire in fiscal 2021.

We have not provided any deferred taxes on undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries. Deferred taxes will be provided for earnings of non-U.S. affiliates and associated companies when we determine that such earnings are no longer indefinitely reinvested and will result in a tax liability upon distribution.

11. CONTINGENCIES

Litigation Matters

We are a party to certain litigation matters relating to our acquisition of Beatrice Company ("Beatrice") in fiscal 1991, including litigation proceedings related to businesses divested by Beatrice prior to our acquisition of the company. These proceedings have included suits against a number of lead paint and pigment manufacturers, including ConAgra Grocery Products Company, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ("ConAgra Grocery Products") as alleged successor to W. P. Fuller & Co., a lead paint and pigment manufacturer owned and operated by a predecessor to Beatrice from 1962 until 1967. These lawsuits generally seek damages for personal injury, property damage, economic loss, and governmental expenditures allegedly caused by the use of lead-based paint, and/or injunctive relief for inspection and abatement. When such lawsuits have been brought, ConAgra Grocery Products has denied liability, both on the merits of the claims and on the basis that we do not believe it to be the successor to any liability attributable to W. P. Fuller & Co. Decisions favorable to us were rendered in Rhode Island, New Jersey, Wisconsin, and Ohio. ConAgra Grocery Products was held liable for the abatement of a public nuisance in California, and the case was dismissed pursuant to settlement in July 2019 as discussed in the following paragraph. We remain a defendant in one active suit in Illinois. The Illinois suit seeks class-wide relief for reimbursement of costs associated with the testing of lead levels in blood. We do not believe it is probable that we have incurred any liability with respect to the Illinois case, nor is it possible to estimate any potential exposure.

In California, a number of cities and counties joined in a consolidated action seeking abatement of an alleged public nuisance in the form of lead-based paint potentially present on the interior of residences, regardless of its condition. On September 23, 2013, a trial of the California case concluded in the Superior Court of California for the County of Santa Clara, and on January 27, 2014, the court entered a judgment (the "Judgment") against ConAgra Grocery Products and two other defendants ordering the creation of a California abatement fund in the amount of $1.15 billion. Liability was joint and several. The Company appealed the Judgment, and on November 14, 2017 the California Court of Appeal for the Sixth Appellate District reversed in part, holding that the defendants were not liable to pay for abatement of homes built after 1950, but affirmed the Judgment as to homes built before 1951. The Court of

17

Appeal remanded the case to the trial court with directions to recalculate the amount of the abatement fund estimated to be necessary to cover the cost of remediating pre-1951 homes, and to hold an evidentiary hearing regarding appointment of a suitable receiver. ConAgra Grocery Products and the other defendants petitioned the California Supreme Court for review of the decision, which we believe to be an unprecedented expansion of current California law. On February 14, 2018, the California Supreme Court denied the petition and declined to review the merits of the case, and the case was remanded to the trial court for further proceedings. ConAgra Grocery Products and the other defendants sought further review of certain issues from the Supreme Court of the United States, but on October 15, 2018, the Supreme Court declined to review the case. On September 4, 2018, the trial court recalculated its estimate of the amount needed to remediate pre-1951 homes in the plaintiff jurisdictions to be $409.0 million. As of July 10, 2019, the parties reached an agreement in principle to resolve this matter, which agreement was approved by the trial court on July 24, 2019, and the action against ConAgra Grocery Products was dismissed with prejudice. Pursuant to the settlement, ConAgra Grocery Products will pay a total of $101.7 million in seven installments to be paid annually from fiscal 2020 through fiscal 2026. As part of the settlement, ConAgra Grocery Products has provide d a guarantee of up to $15.0 million in the event co-defendant, NL Industries, Inc., defaults on its payment obligations.

As of February 28, 2021, we have remaining amounts accrued of $11.3 million and $52.1 million, within other accrued liabilities and other noncurrent liabilities, respectively, for this matter. The extent of insurance coverage is uncertain and the Company's carriers are on notice; however, any possible insurance recovery has not been considered for purposes of determining our liability.

We are party to a number of putative class action lawsuits challenging various product claims made in the Company's product labeling. These matters include Briseno v. ConAgra Foods, Inc. in which it is alleged that the labeling for Wesson® oils as 100% natural is false and misleading because the oils contain genetically modified plants and organisms. In February 2015, the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California granted class certification to permit plaintiffs to pursue state law claims. The Company appealed to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, which affirmed class certification in January 2017. The Supreme Court of the United States declined to review the decision and the case was remanded to the trial court for further proceedings. On April 4, 2019, the trial court granted preliminary approval of a settlement in this matter. In the second quarter of fiscal 2020, a single objecting class member appealed the court's decision approving the settlement to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. The settlement will not be final until the appeal has been resolved.

We are party to matters challenging the Company's wage and hour practices. These matters include a number of class actions consolidated under the caption Negrete v. ConAgra Foods, Inc., et al., pending in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, in which the plaintiffs allege a pattern of violations of California and/or federal law at several current and former Company manufacturing facilities across the State of California. The Company has notified the Court that it has reached a settlement in principle with the plaintiffs, which requires preliminary and final approval of the Court. While we cannot predict with certainty the results of this or any other legal proceeding, we do not expect this matter to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or business.

We are party to a number of matters asserting product liability claims against the Company related to certain Pam® and other cooking spray products. These lawsuits generally seek damages for personal injuries allegedly caused by defects in the design, manufacture, or safety warnings of the cooking spray products. We have put the Company's insurance carriers on notice. While we cannot predict with certainty the results of these or any other legal proceedings, we do not expect these matters to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or business.

The Company, its directors, and several of its executive officers are defendants in several class actions alleging violations of federal securities laws. The lawsuits assert that the Company's officers made material misstatements and omissions that caused the market to have an unrealistically positive assessment of the Company's financial prospects in light of the acquisition of Pinnacle, thus causing the Company's securities to be overvalued prior to the release of the Company's consolidated financial results on December 20, 2018 for the second quarter of fiscal year 2019. The first of these lawsuits, captioned West Palm Beach Firefighters' Pension Fund v. Conagra Brands, Inc., et al., with which subsequent lawsuits alleging similar facts have been consolidated, was filed on February 22, 2019 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. That consolidated lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice on December 23, 2020 for failure to state a claim. On January 22, 2021, the plaintiff filed a notice of appeal of the trial court’s decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit. In addition, on May 9, 2019, a shareholder filed a derivative action on behalf of the Company against the Company's directors captioned Klein v. Arora, et al. in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois asserting harm to the Company due to alleged breaches of fiduciary duty and mismanagement in connection with the Pinnacle acquisition. On July 9, 2019, September 20, 2019, and March 10, 2020, the Company received three separate demands from stockholders under Delaware law to inspect the Company's books and records related to the Board of Directors' review of the Pinnacle business, acquisition, and the Company's public statements related to them. On July 22, 2019 and August 6, 2019, respectively, two additional shareholder derivative lawsuits captioned Opperman v. Connolly, et al. and Dahl v. Connolly, et al. were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois asserting similar facts and claims as the Klein v. Arora, et al. matter. On October 21,

18

2019, the Company received an additional demand from a stockholder under Delaware law to appoint a special committee to investigate the conduct of certain officers and directors in connection with the Pinnacle acquisition and the Company's public statements. All remaining shareholder lawsuits and demands are currently stayed by agreement pending the final outcome of the West Palm Beach Firefighters' Pension Fund matter. We have put the Company's insurance carriers on notice of each of these securities and shareholder matters. While we cannot predict with certainty the results of these or any other legal proceedings, we do not expect these matters to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or business.

Environmental Matters

Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") regulations require us to disclose certain information about environmental proceedings if a governmental authority is a party to such proceedings and such proceedings involve potential monetary sanctions that we reasonably believe will exceed a stated threshold. Pursuant to the SEC regulations, the Company uses a threshold of $1.0 million for purposes of determining whether disclosure of any such proceedings is required.

We are a party to certain environmental proceedings relating to our acquisition of Beatrice in fiscal 1991. Such proceedings include proceedings related to businesses divested by Beatrice prior to our acquisition of Beatrice. The current environmental proceedings associated with Beatrice include litigation and administrative proceedings involving Beatrice's possible status as a potentially responsible party at approximately 40 Superfund, proposed Superfund, or state-equivalent sites (the "Beatrice sites"). These sites involve locations previously owned or operated by predecessors of Beatrice that used or produced petroleum, pesticides, fertilizers, dyes, inks, solvents, polychlorinated biphenyls, acids, lead, sulfur, tannery wastes, and/or other contaminants. Reserves for these Beatrice environmental proceedings have been established based on our best estimate of the undiscounted remediation liabilities, which estimates include evaluation of investigatory studies, extent of required clean-up, the known volumetric contribution of Beatrice and other potentially responsible parties, and its experience in remediating sites. The accrual for Beatrice-related environmental matters totaled $55.8 million ($2.0 million within other accrued liabilities and $53.8 million within other noncurrent liabilities) as of February 28, 2021, a majority of which relates to the Superfund and state-equivalent sites referenced above. During the third quarter of fiscal 2017, a final Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study was submitted for the Southwest Properties portion ("Operating Unit 4") of the Wells G&H Superfund site, which is one of the Beatrice sites. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") issued a Record of Decision ("ROD") for the Southwest Properties portion of the site on September 29, 2017 and has entered into negotiations with potentially responsible parties to determine final responsibility for implementing the ROD. Additionally, in conjunction with the conclusion of the fifth Five-Year Review period for Operating Unit 1 of the Wells G&H site, which spanned from October 1, 2014 to September 30, 2019, we are negotiating with the EPA to allow us to begin testing different environmental remediation methods to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of our current cleanup efforts affecting both Operating Units 1 and 2. As a result, in the second quarter of fiscal 2020, we increased our environmental reserves by $6.6 million associated with these expected cleanup efforts.

Guarantees and Other Contingencies

In certain limited situations, we will guarantee an obligation of an unconsolidated entity. We guarantee an obligation of the Lamb Weston business pursuant to a guarantee arrangement that existed prior to the spinoff of the Lamb Weston business (the "Spinoff"). The guarantee remained in place following completion of the Spinoff and it will remain in place until such guarantee obligation is substituted for guarantees issued by Lamb Weston. Pursuant to the separation and distribution agreement, dated as of November 8, 2016 (the "Separation Agreement"), between us and Lamb Weston, this guarantee arrangement is deemed a liability of Lamb Weston that was transferred to Lamb Weston as part of the Spinoff. Accordingly, in the event that we are required to make any payments as a result of this guarantee arrangement, Lamb Weston is obligated to indemnify us for any such liability, reduced by any insurance proceeds received by us, in accordance with the terms of the indemnification provisions under the Separation Agreement. Lamb Weston is a party to an agricultural sublease agreement with a third party for certain farmland through 2025 (subject, at Lamb Weston's option, to extension for one additional five-year period). Under the terms of the sublease agreement, Lamb Weston is required to make certain rental payments to the sublessor. We have guaranteed the sublessor Lamb Weston's performance and the payment of all amounts (including indemnification obligations) owed by Lamb Weston under the sublease agreement, up to a maximum of $75.0 million. We believe the farmland associated with this sublease agreement is readily marketable for lease to other area farming operators. As such, we believe that any financial exposure to the Company, in the event that we were required to perform under the guarantee, would be largely mitigated.

We also guarantee a lease resulting from an exited facility. As of February 28, 2021, the remaining term of this arrangement did not exceed six years and the maximum amount of future payments we have guaranteed was $14.5 million.

General

After taking into account liabilities recognized for all of the foregoing matters, management believes the ultimate resolution of such matters should not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity; however, it is reasonably possible that a change of the estimates of any of the foregoing matters may occur in the future which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

19

Costs of legal services associated with the foregoing matters are recognized in earnings as services are provided.

12. PENSION AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

We have defined benefit retirement plans ("plans") for eligible salaried and hourly employees. Benefits are based on years of credited service and average compensation or stated amounts for each year of service. We also sponsor postretirement plans which provide certain medical and dental benefits ("other postretirement benefits") to qualifying U.S. employees.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2020, we amended a certain hourly pension plan that froze future compensation and service periods. As a result, we remeasured the Company’s hourly pension plan liability as of January 31, 2020 and recorded a pension curtailment loss of $0.2 million previously within other comprehensive income (loss). In connection with the remeasurement, we updated the effective discount rate assumption for the impacted pension plan from 3.86% to 2.96%. The remeasurement increased the underfunded status of the pension plan by $4.3 million with a corresponding loss within other comprehensive income (loss).

During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company provided a voluntary lump-sum settlement offer to certain terminated vested participants in the salaried pension plan in order to reduce a portion of the pension obligation. During the third quarter of fiscal 2020, lump-sum settlement payments totaling $154.6 million were distributed from pension plan assets to such participants. As a result of the settlement, we were required to remeasure our pension plan liability. In connection with the remeasurement, we updated the effective discount rate assumption for the impacted pension plan obligation from 3.89% to 3.37%, as of December 31, 2019. The settlement and related remeasurement resulted in the recognition of a settlement gain of $2.1 million, reflected in pension and postretirement non-service income, as well as a benefit to other comprehensive income (loss) totaling $79.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020.

As a result of the anticipated exit of certain facilities, during the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we remeasured the Company's hourly pension plan as of August 25, 2019 and recorded a pension curtailment loss of $0.6 million previously within other comprehensive income (loss). In connection with the remeasurement, we updated the effective discount rate assumption for the impacted pension plan obligation from 3.90% to 3.13%. The curtailment loss and related remeasurement increased the underfunded status of the pension plan by $12.3 million with a corresponding loss within other comprehensive income (loss).

The Company uses a split discount rate (spot-rate approach) for the U.S. plans and certain foreign plans. The spot-rate approach applies separate discount rates for each projected benefit payment in the calculation of pension service and interest cost.

The weighted-average discount rates for service and interest costs under the spot-rate approach used for pension cost in fiscal 2021 were 3.35% and 2.30%, respectively.

During the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2021, we contributed $3.0 million and $23.7 million, respectively, to our pension plans and contributed $2.0 million and $6.1 million, respectively, to our other postretirement plans. Based upon the current funded status of the plans and the current interest rate environment, we anticipate making further contributions of approximately $8.5 million to our pension plans for the remainder of fiscal 2021. We anticipate making further contributions of approximately $3.9 million to our other postretirement plans during the remainder of fiscal 2021. These estimates are based on ERISA guidelines, current tax laws, plan asset performance, and liability assumptions, which are subject to change.

14. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

FASB guidance establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price assets or liabilities. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities,

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets, and

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions and best estimate of what inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

22

The fair values of our Level 2 derivative instruments were determined using valuation models that use market observable inputs including interest rate curves and both forward and spot prices for currencies and commodities. Derivative assets and liabilities included in Level 2 primarily represent commodity and foreign currency option and forward contracts and cross-currency swaps.

The following table presents our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, based upon the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall, as of February 28, 2021:

|  | Level 1 |  |  | Level 2 |  |  | Level 3 |  |  | Net Value |

The following table presents our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, based upon the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall, as of May 31, 2020:

Certain assets and liabilities, including long-lived assets, goodwill, asset retirement obligations, and cost and equity investments, are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis using Level 3 inputs.

In the third quarter of fiscal 2021, we updated our cost estimates associated with certain asset retirement obligations at several manufacturing facilities largely due to recent experience of physically closing a wastewater lagoon. This change in estimate resulted in a non-cash increase to our long-lived assets in the amount of $27.4 million and will result in additional depreciation in future periods generally ranging from 15-25 years. The fair value of our asset retirement obligations was measured using cost estimates to settle our future obligations (including an estimate of inflation) and discounted to present value using a credit-adjusted risk-free rate.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, we recognized charges totaling $3.0 million in our Grocery & Snacks segment for the impairment of certain long-lived assets. In the third quarter of fiscal 2020, we recognized charges totaling $3.8 million in the Refrigerated & Frozen segment for the impairment of certain long-lived assets. The impairments were measured based upon the estimated sales price of the assets and have been included in restructuring activities.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we recognized charges for the impairment of certain indefinite-lived brands. The fair values of these brands were estimated using the "relief from royalty" method (see Note 5). Impairments in our Grocery & Snacks and Refrigerated & Frozen segments totaled $3.5 million and $15.8 million, respectively.

In the first half of fiscal 2020, we recognized impairment charges in our Grocery & Snacks segment totaling $54.4 million. In the second quarter of fiscal 2020, we recognized impairment charges in our Refrigerated & Frozen segment of $27.6 million. The impairments were measured based upon the estimated sales price of the disposal groups (see Note 2).

In the first half of fiscal 2020, we recognized charges of $2.9 million in general corporate expenses related to the impairments of lease right-of-use assets. The impairments were measured based upon a discounted cash flow approach and have been included in restructuring activities.

The carrying amount of long-term debt (including current installments) was $8.50 billion and $9.75 billion as of February 28, 2021 and May 31, 2020, respectively. Based on current market rates, the fair value of this debt (level 2 liabilities) at February 28, 2021 and May 31, 2020, was estimated at $9.99 billion and $11.35 billion, respectively.

15. BUSINESS SEGMENTS AND RELATED INFORMATION

We reflect our results of operations in four reporting segments: Grocery & Snacks, Refrigerated & Frozen, International, and Foodservice.

The Grocery & Snacks reporting segment principally includes branded, shelf-stable food products sold in various retail channels in the United States.

The Refrigerated & Frozen reporting segment includes branded, temperature-controlled food products sold in various retail channels in the United States.

The International reporting segment principally includes branded food products, in various temperature states, sold in various retail and foodservice channels outside of the United States.

The Foodservice reporting segment includes branded and customized food products, including meals, entrees, sauces and a variety of custom-manufactured culinary products packaged for sale to restaurants and other foodservice establishments primarily in the United States.

We do not aggregate operating segments when determining our reporting segments.

Operating profit for each of the segments is based on net sales less all identifiable operating expenses. General corporate expense, pension and postretirement non-service income, interest expense, net, income taxes, and equity method investment earnings have been excluded from segment operations.

Presentation of Derivative Gains (Losses) for Economic Hedges of Forecasted Cash Flows in Segment Results

Derivatives used to manage commodity price risk and foreign currency risk are not designated for hedge accounting treatment. We believe these derivatives provide economic hedges of certain forecasted transactions. As such, these derivatives are recognized at fair market value with realized and unrealized gains and losses recognized in general corporate expenses. The gains and losses are subsequently recognized in the operating results of the reporting segments in the period in which the underlying transaction being economically hedged is included in earnings. In the event that management determines a particular derivative entered into as an economic hedge of a forecasted commodity purchase has ceased to function as an economic hedge, we cease recognizing further gains and losses on such derivatives in corporate expense and begin recognizing such gains and losses within segment operating results, immediately.

The following table presents the net derivative gains (losses) from economic hedges of forecasted commodity consumption and the foreign currency risk of certain forecasted transactions, under this methodology:

|  | Thirteen weeks ended |  |  | Thirty-nine weeks ended |
|  | February 28, 2021 |  |  | February 23, 2020 |  |  | February 28, 2021 |  |  | February 23, 2020 |
Gross derivative gains (losses) incurred |  | $ | 5.3 |  |  | $ | (5.7 | ) |  | $ | 1.4 |  |  | $ | (12.5 | )
Less: Net derivative losses allocated to reporting segments |  |  | (1.1 | ) |  |  | (1.9 | ) |  |  | (5.8 | ) |  |  | (3.3 | )
Net derivative gains (losses) recognized in general corporate expenses |  | $ | 6.4 |  |  | $ | (3.8 | ) |  | $ | 7.2 |  |  | $ | (9.2 | )
Net derivative gains (losses) allocated to Grocery & Snacks |  | $ | 0.3 |  |  | $ | (0.9 | ) |  | $ | (4.1 | ) |  | $ | (1.5 | )
Net derivative losses allocated to Refrigerated & Frozen |  |  | (0.1 | ) |  |  | — |  |  |  | (2.1 | ) |  |  | (0.7 | )
Net derivative gains (losses) allocated to International |  |  | (1.3 | ) |  |  | (0.8 | ) |  |  | 1.1 |  |  |  | (1.1 | )
Net derivative losses allocated to Foodservice |  |  | — |  |  |  | (0.2 | ) |  |  | (0.7 | ) |  |  | — |
Net derivative losses included in segment operating profit |  | $ | (1.1 | ) |  | $ | (1.9 | ) |  | $ | (5.8 | ) |  | $ | (3.3 | )

As of February 28, 2021, the cumulative amount of net derivative gains from economic hedges that had been recognized in general corporate expenses and not yet allocated to reporting segments was $3.1 million. This amount reflected net gains of $5.7 million incurred during the thirty-nine weeks ended February 28, 2021 and net losses of $2.6 million incurred prior to fiscal 2021. Based on our forecasts of the timing of recognition of the underlying hedged items, we expect to reclassify to segment operating results gains of $0.8 million in fiscal 2021 and gains of $2.3 million in fiscal 2022 and thereafter.

Assets by Segment

The majority of our manufacturing assets are shared across multiple reporting segments. Output from these facilities used by each reporting segment can change over time. Also, working capital balances are not tracked by reporting segment. Therefore, it is impracticable to allocate those assets to the reporting segments, as well as disclose total assets by segment. Total depreciation expense was $81.7 million and $244.8 million for the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2021, respectively, and $84.2 million and $247.6 million for the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2020, respectively.

Other Information

Our operations are principally in the United States. With respect to operations outside of the United States, no single foreign country or geographic region was significant with respect to consolidated operations for the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2021 and 2020. Foreign net sales, including sales by domestic segments to customers located outside of the United States, were approximately $246.8 million and $724.1 million in the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2021, respectively. Our foreign

25

net sales during the third quarter and first three quarters of 2020 were approximately $228.0 million and $675.9 million, respectively. Our long-lived assets located outside of the United States are not significant.

Our largest customer, Walmart, Inc. and its affiliates, accounted for approximately 27% of consolidated net sales in the third quarter of both fiscal 2021 and 2020 and approximately 26% in the first three quarters of both fiscal 2021 and 2020, primarily in the Grocery & Snacks and Refrigerated & Frozen segments.

Walmart, Inc. and its affiliates accounted for approximately 34% and 30% of consolidated net receivables as of February 28, 2021 and May 31, 2020, respectively. The Kroger Co. and its affiliates accounted for approximately 11% and 10% of consolidated net receivables as of February 28, 2021 and May 31, 2020, respectively.

Fiscal 2021 Third Quarter Results

In the third quarter of fiscal 2021, results reflected an increase in net sales, with organic (excludes the impacts of foreign exchange and divested businesses) increases in each of our operating segments with the exception of a decrease in our Foodservice segment, in each case compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2020. Organic net sales for our retail segments (inclusive of Grocery & Snacks, Refrigerated & Frozen, and International) were positively impacted by the increase in at-home food consumption as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, with sales declines in our Foodservice segment due to lower traffic in away-from-home food outlets.

Overall gross profit increased due to increased net sales, supply chain realized productivity, favorable margin mix, cost synergies associated with the Pinnacle acquisition, and fixed cost leverage, which were partially offset by input cost inflation, higher transportation costs, COVID-19 related expenses, and lost profits from divested businesses. Overall segment operating profit increased in each operating segment with the exception of our Foodservice segment. Corporate expenses were higher primarily due to items impacting comparability, as discussed below. There were decreased selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses due to the gain recognized in connection with the divestiture of our Peter Pan® peanut butter business in addition to lower travel costs, offset by increased advertising and promotion expenses and incentive compensation expense. We recognized higher equity method investment earnings, lower interest expense, and higher income tax expense, in each case compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2020. Excluding items impacting comparability, our effective tax rate was slightly lower compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2020.

Diluted earnings per share in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 were $0.58. Diluted earnings per share in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 were $0.42. Diluted earnings per share were affected by higher net income in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2020, slightly lower weighted average shares outstanding due to recent share repurchases, as well as several significant items affecting the comparability of year-over-year results (see "Items Impacting Comparability" below).

At the end of the third quarter fiscal 2021, there were significant winter storms across most of the United States. While we believe that these storms resulted in slightly lower net sales and some incremental transportation costs during the latter part of February 2021, we do not believe that weather had a material impact on our results of operations for the third quarter, nor do we expect it to have a material impact to the full fiscal year.

Items Impacting Comparability

Segment presentation of gains and losses from derivatives used for economic hedging of anticipated commodity input costs and economic hedging of foreign currency exchange rate risks of anticipated transactions is discussed in the "Segment Review" below.

Items of note impacting comparability for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 included the following:

| • | a gain of $49.7 million ($27.9 million after-tax) associated with the divestiture of a business,

| • | charges totaling $24.4 million ($18.3 million after-tax) related to the early extinguishment of debt,

| • | charges totaling $15.4 million ($11.6 million after-tax) in connection with our restructuring plans,

| • | consulting expenses of $5.3 million ($4.0 million after-tax) primarily associated with securing tax benefits for a new production facility (the associated tax benefits will be recognized in future periods), and

| • | charges totaling $4.3 million ($3.2 million after-tax) related to a previous legal matter.

Items of note impacting comparability for the third quarter of fiscal 2020 included charges totaling $31.8 million ($23.9 million after-tax) in connection with our restructuring plans.

Items of note impacting comparability for the first three quarters of fiscal 2021 included the following:

| • | charges totaling $68.7 million ($51.5 million after-tax) related to early extinguishment of debt,

| • | charges totaling $62.0 million ($46.5 million after-tax) in connection with our restructuring plans,

| • | a gain of $55.0 million ($31.4 million after-tax) associated with the divestiture of certain businesses,

| • | consulting expenses of $6.5 million ($4.9 million after-tax) primarily associated with securing tax benefits for a new production facility (the associated tax benefits will be recognized in future periods),

| • | an income tax benefit of $24.8 million related to a release of valuation allowance associated with the divestiture of the Peter Pan® peanut butter business, and

28

| • | an income tax benefit of $7.6 million related to certain final tax regulations on prior year federal tax matters.

Items of note impacting comparability for the first three quarters of fiscal 2020 included the following:

| • | charges totaling $117.1 million ($90.0 million after-tax) in connection with our restructuring plans,

| • | charges totaling $59.0 million ($55.0 million after-tax) related to the impairment of businesses held for sale,

| • | charges totaling $19.3 million ($14.8 million after-tax) related to the impairment of certain brand intangible assets,

| • | a gain of $11.9 million ($8.9 million after-tax) related to a contract settlement,

| • | charges totaling $6.6 million ($5.0 million after-tax) related to a legacy environmental matter, and

| • | an income tax benefit of $52.5 million primarily related to the reorganization of various legacy Pinnacle legal entities and state tax planning strategies.

Divestitures

During the third quarter of fiscal 2021, we completed the sale of our Peter Pan® peanut butter business for net proceeds of $103.4 million, subject to final adjustments for working capital and certain tax benefits. The results of operations of the divested Peter Pan® peanut butter business are primarily included in our Grocery & Snacks segment, and to a lesser extent within our International and Foodservice segments, for the periods preceding the completion of the transaction.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2020, we completed the sale of our Lender's® bagel business for net proceeds of $33.3 million, including working capital adjustments. The results of operations of the divested Lender's® bagel business are primarily included in our Refrigerated & Frozen segment, and to a lesser extent within our Foodservice segment, for the periods preceding the completion of the transaction.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, we completed the sale of our Direct Store Delivery Snacks ("DSD Snacks") business for net proceeds of $137.5 million, including working capital adjustments. The results of operations of the divested DSD Snacks business are included in our Grocery & Snacks segment for the periods preceding the completion of the transaction.

Restructuring Plans

In December 2018, our Board of Directors (the "Board") approved a restructuring and integration plan related to the ongoing integration of the operations of Pinnacle, which we acquired in October 2018 (the "Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan"), for the purpose of achieving significant cost synergies between the companies, as a result of which we expect to incur material charges for exit and disposal activities under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We expect to incur approximately $362.3 million of charges ($284.3 million of cash charges and $78.0 million of non-cash charges) for actions identified to date under the Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan. The Board and/or our senior management have authorized incurrence of these charges. In the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2021, we recognized charges of $5.4 million and $24.2 million, respectively, in connection with the Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan. In the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2020, we recognized charges of $19.6 million and $63.5 million, respectively, in connection with the Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan. We expect to incur costs related to the Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan over a multi-year period.

In fiscal 2019, senior management initiated a restructuring plan (the "Conagra Restructuring Plan") for costs incurred in connection with actions taken to improve SG&A expense effectiveness and efficiencies and to optimize our supply chain network. Although we remain unable to make good faith estimates relating to the entire Conagra Restructuring Plan, we are reporting on actions initiated through the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2021, including the estimated amounts or range of amounts for each major type of costs expected to be incurred, and the charges that have resulted or will result in cash outflows. As of February 28, 2021, we have approved the incurrence of $171.0 million ($44.2 million of cash charges and $126.8 million of non-cash charges) for several projects associated with the Conagra Restructuring Plan. We have incurred or expect to incur $157.4 million of charges ($36.9 million of cash charges and $120.5 million of non-cash charges) for actions identified to date under the Conagra Restructuring Plan. In the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2021, we recognized charges of $10.0 million and $37.8 million, respectively, in connection with the Conagra Restructuring Plan. In the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2020, we recognized charges of $11.9 million and $52.6 million, respectively, in connection with the Conagra Restructuring Plan. We expect to incur costs related to the Conagra Restructuring Plan over a multi-year period.

C OVID–19 Pandemic

We continue to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business. During the third quarter of fiscal 2021, we continued to experience higher sales for our products in the retail segments as a result of increased customer demand for food at home due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We continued to experience reduced demand for our foodservice products across all of our major markets during the third quarter of fiscal 2021 as consumer traffic in away-from-home food outlets has decreased as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. While levels of at-home eating have remained elevated during the pandemic, the distribution of vaccines, state re-opening plans, and increased outdoor dining as a result of warmer weather may impact consumer at-home eating trends. We will continue to evaluate these trends and the impact to our business.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2021, our operating margins continued to benefit from fixed cost leverage, reduced travel expenses, and lower trade promotional activity on certain brands. That benefit was partially offset by several factors including higher transportation and warehousing costs, employee safety and sanitation costs, and employee compensation costs, which accounted for an estimated $45 million of additional incremental costs in the third quarter.

In February 2020, we created an internal COVID-19 pandemic team in order to review and assess the evolving COVID-19 pandemic, and to recommend risk mitigation actions for the health and safety of our employees. In order to enhance the safety of our employees during the COVID-19 pandemic, we have implemented various measures, including the installation of physical barriers between employees in production facilities, extensive cleaning and sanitation of both production and office spaces, and implementation of broad work-from-home initiatives for office personnel. While all of these measures have been necessary and appropriate, they have resulted in additional costs, many of which we expect to continue to incur throughout fiscal 2021 as we continue to address employee safety.

We have experienced some challenges in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, including temporary closings of production facilities and reduced demand in our Foodservice segment. Despite these challenges, all of our production facilities remain open and there has been minimal disruption to our supply chain network to date, including the supply of our ingredients, packaging, or other sourced materials. However, we continue to closely monitor the potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, as we cannot predict its ultimate impact on our suppliers, distributors, and manufacturers.

At this time, we have not experienced a net negative impact on our liquidity or results of operations and we believe we have sufficient liquidity to satisfy our cash needs. We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of the impact to our business, consolidated results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity.

SEGMENT REVIEW

We reflect our results of operations in four reporting segments: Grocery & Snacks, Refrigerated & Frozen, International, and Foodservice.

Grocery & Snacks

The Grocery & Snacks reporting segment principally includes branded, shelf-stable food products sold in various retail channels in the United States.

Refrigerated & Frozen

The Refrigerated & Frozen reporting segment principally includes branded, temperature-controlled food products sold in various retail channels in the United States.

International

The International reporting segment principally includes branded food products, in various temperature states, sold in various retail and foodservice channels outside of the United States.

Foodservice

The Foodservice reporting segment includes branded and customized food products, including meals, entrees, sauces, and a variety of custom-manufactured culinary products that are packaged for sale to restaurants and other foodservice establishments primarily in the United States.

Presentation of Derivative Gains (Losses) from Economic Hedges of Forecasted Cash Flows in Segment Results

Derivatives used to manage commodity price risk and foreign currency risk are not designated for hedge accounting treatment. We believe these derivatives provide economic hedges of certain forecasted transactions. As such, these derivatives are recognized at

30

fair market value with realized and unrealized gains and losses recognized in general corporate expenses. The gains and losses are subsequently recognized in the operating results of the reporting segments in the period in which the underlying transaction being economically hedged is included in earnings. In the event that management determines a particular derivative entered into as an economic hedge of a forecasted commodity purchase has ceased to function as an economic hedge, we cease recognizing further gains and losses on such derivatives in corporate expense and begin recognizing such gains and losses within segment operating results, immediately. See Note 15 "Business Segments and Related Information", to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this report for further discussion.

The third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2020 included a settlement gain of $2.1 million related to the remeasurement of our salaried pension plan. The third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2021 reflected lower interest costs as a result of declining interest rates and lower expected returns on plan assets.

Interest Expense, Net

Net interest expense was $100.6 million and $117.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 and 2020, respectively. Net interest expense was $322.0 million and $361.8 million for the first three quarters of fiscal 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease was driven by an overall reduction of our debt balances. See Note 4 "Long-Term Debt and Revolving Credit Facility", to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this report for further discussion.

Income Taxes

In the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2021, we recognized income tax expense of $101.6 million and $269.0 million, respectively. The effective tax rate (calculated as the ratio of income tax expense to pre-tax income, inclusive of equity method investment earnings) was approximately 26.5% and 21.3% for the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2021, respectively. In the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2020, we recognized income tax expense of $68.9 million and $141.5 million, respectively. The effective tax rate was approximately 25.2% and 18.1% for the third quarter and first three quarters of fiscal 2020, respectively. See Note 10 "Income Taxes", to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this report for a discussion on the change in effective tax rates.

Ardent Mills earnings for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 reflected favorable market conditions.

Earnings Per Share

Diluted earnings per share in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 and 2020 were $0.58 and $0.42, respectively. Diluted earnings per share in the first three quarters of fiscal 2021 and 2020 were $2.02 and $1.31, respectively. See "Items Impacting Comparability" above as several significant items affected the comparability of year-over-year results of operations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Sources of Liquidity and Capital

Our primary financing objective is to maintain a prudent capital structure that provides us flexibility to pursue our growth objectives. If necessary, we use short-term debt principally to finance ongoing operations, including our seasonal requirements for working capital (accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, and inventories, less accounts payable, accrued payroll, and other accrued liabilities), and a combination of equity and long-term debt to finance both our base working capital needs and our non-current assets. We are committed to maintaining solid investment grade credit ratings.

As of February 28, 2021, we had a revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") with a syndicate of financial institutions providing for a maximum aggregate principal amount outstanding at any one time of $1.6 billion (subject to increase to a

35

maximum aggregate principal amount of $2.1 billion with the consent of the lenders). The Revolving Credit Facility matures on July 11, 2024 and is unsecured. The term of the Revolving Credit Facility may be extended for additional one-year or two-year periods from the then-applicable maturity date on an annual basis. We have historically used a credit facility principally as a back-up for our commercial paper program. As of February 28, 2021, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility.

As of February 28, 2021, we had $728.6 million outstanding under our commercial paper program. The highest level of borrowings during the first three quarters of fiscal 2021 was $820.5 million. We had no amounts outstanding under our commercial paper program as of May 31, 2020.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2021, we redeemed $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.20% senior notes due January 25, 2023, prior to maturity, resulting in a net loss of $24.4 million as a cost of early extinguishment of debt. The repayment was primarily funded by the issuance of commercial paper.

On March 1, 2021, subsequent to the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2021, we repaid the remaining outstanding $195.9 million aggregate principal amount of our 9.75% subordinated notes on their maturity date. The repayment was primarily funded by the issuance of commercial paper.

We expect to maintain or have access to sufficient liquidity to retire or refinance long-term debt upon maturity, from operating cash flows, our commercial paper program, access to the capital markets, and our Revolving Credit Facility. We continuously evaluate opportunities to refinance our debt; however, any refinancing is subject to market conditions and other factors, including financing options that may be available to us from time to time, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully refinance any debt on commercially acceptable terms at all.

As of the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2021, our senior long-term debt ratings were all investment grade. A significant downgrade in our credit ratings would not affect our ability to borrow amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility, although borrowing costs would increase. A downgrade of our short-term credit ratings would impact our ability to borrow under our commercial paper program by negatively impacting borrowing costs and causing shorter durations, as well as making access to commercial paper more difficult, or impossible.

Our most restrictive debt agreement (the Revolving Credit Facility) generally requires our ratio of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA") to interest expense be not less than 3.0 to 1.0 and our ratio of funded debt to EBITDA not to exceed certain decreasing specified levels, ranging from 4.75 through the first quarter of fiscal 2022 to 3.75 from the second quarter of fiscal 2023 and thereafter, with each ratio to be calculated on a rolling four-quarter basis. As of February 28, 2021, we were in compliance with these financial covenants.

We repurchase shares of our common stock from time to time after considering market conditions and in accordance with repurchase limits authorized by our Board. Under the share repurchase authorization, we may repurchase our shares periodically over several years, depending on market conditions and other factors, and may do so in open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions. The share repurchase authorization has no expiration date. During the third quarter of fiscal 2021, we repurchased approximately 8.8 million shares of our common stock under this authorization for an aggregate of $298.1 million. We plan to repurchase shares under our authorized program only at times and in amounts as are consistent with the prioritization of achieving our long-term leverage target. The Company's total remaining share repurchase authorization as of February 28, 2021, was $1.12 billion.

On December 11, 2020, our Board announced a quarterly dividend payment of $0.275 per share which was paid on March 3, 2021 to stockholders of record as of close of business on January 29, 2021.

In fiscal 2017, we began a program to offer certain suppliers access to a third-party service that allows them to view our scheduled payments online. The third-party service also allows suppliers to finance advances on our scheduled payments at the sole discretion of the supplier and the third party. We have no economic interest in these financing arrangements and no direct relationship with the suppliers, the third party, or any financial institutions concerning this service. All balances remain as obligations to our suppliers as stated in our supplier agreements and are reflected in accounts payable within our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The associated payments are included in net cash flows from operating activities within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. As of February 28, 2021 and May 31, 2020, $251.9 million and $258.7 million, respectively, of our total accounts payable was payable to suppliers who utilize this third-party service.

The program commenced at about the same time that we began an initiative to negotiate extended payment terms with our suppliers. Although difficult to predict, we generally expect the incremental cash flow benefits associated with these extended payment terms to increase at a slower rate in the future. A number of factors may impact our future payment terms, including our relative creditworthiness, overall market liquidity, and changes in interest rates and other general economic conditions.

36

Cash Flows

During the first three quarters of fiscal 2021, we used $472.6 million of cash, which was the net result of $1.07 billion generated from operating activities, $281.9 million used in investing activities, $1.26 billion used in financing activities, and an increase of $2.9 million due to the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Cash generated from operating activities totaled $1.07 billion in the first three quarters of fiscal 2021, as compared to $906.5 million generated in the first three quarters of fiscal 2020. The increase in operating cash flows for the first three quarters of fiscal 2021 compared to the first three quarters of fiscal 2020 was largely due to the impact of increased net sales in our retail segments from COVID-19 pandemic-related demand as well as decreased interest payments. This was partially offset by increased tax payments for the first three quarters of fiscal 2021 compared to fiscal 2020. Tax payments for the first three quarters of fiscal 2021 included approximately $47.0 million of fourth quarter fiscal 2020 tax payments, which were deferred due to the extension of the deadline for certain federal cash tax payments. Comparative changes in working capital balances were impacted by some inventory rebuilding in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 and the timing of accounts payable payments. Operating cash flows also benefited from the continued deferral of employer payroll taxes under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, which totaled $33.9 million for the first three quarters of fiscal 2021. Payment of such amounts will occur in fiscal 2022 and 2023.

Cash used in investing activities totaled $281.9 million and $59.9 million in the first three quarters of fiscal 2021 and 2020, respectively. Net cash outflows from investing activities in the first three quarters of fiscal 2021 consisted primarily of capital expenditures totaling $396.7 million partially offset by proceeds totaling $112.2 million from the sale of our Peter Pan® peanut butter and H.K. Anderson® businesses. Investing activities in the first three quarters of fiscal 2020 consisted mainly of capital expenditures of $265.3 million partially offset by proceeds from divestitures totaling $191.4 million, including the sales of our DSD Snacks and Lender’s® bagel businesses.

Cash used in financing activities totaled $1.26 billion and $984.6 million in the first three quarters of fiscal 2021 and 2020, respectively. Financing activities in the first three quarters of fiscal 2021 principally reflect repayments of long-term debt of $2.31 billion, the issuance of long-term debt totaling $988.2 million, net short-term borrowings of $727.6 million, cash dividends paid of $341.7 million, and common stock repurchases of $298.1 million. Financing activities in the first three quarters of fiscal 2020 consisted primarily of the repayment of long-term debt totaling $665.9 million and cash dividends paid of $310.1 million.

The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $80.7 million at February 28, 2021 and $553.3 million at May 31, 2020, of which $70.7 million at February 28, 2021 and $80.5 million at May 31, 2020 was held in foreign countries. We believe that our foreign subsidiaries have invested or will invest any undistributed earnings indefinitely, or that any undistributed earnings will be remitted in a tax-neutral transaction, and, therefore, do not provide deferred taxes on the cumulative undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries.

We continue to make investments in our business and operating facilities. Our estimate of capital expenditures for fiscal 2021 is approximately $510 million.

Management believes that existing cash balances, cash flows from operations, existing credit facilities, and access to capital markets will provide sufficient liquidity to meet our repayment of debt, including any repayment of debt or refinancing of debt, working capital needs, planned capital expenditures, and payment of anticipated quarterly dividends for at least the next twelve months.

OBLIGATIONS AND COMMITMENTS

As part of our ongoing operations, we enter into arrangements that obligate us to make future payments under contracts such as lease agreements, debt agreements, and unconditional purchase obligations (i.e., obligations to transfer funds in the future for fixed or minimum quantities of goods or services at fixed or minimum prices, such as "take-or-pay" contracts). The unconditional purchase obligation arrangements are entered into in our normal course of business in order to ensure adequate levels of sourced product are available. Of these items, debt, notes payable, finance lease obligations, and operating lease obligations were recognized as liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets contained in this report as of February 28, 2021.

1Amounts include open purchase orders and agreements, some of which are not legally binding and/or may be cancellable. Such agreements are generally settleable in the ordinary course of business in less than one year. Purchase obligations and other contracts, which totaled $2.18 billion as of February 28, 2021, were not recognized as liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets contained in this report, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

We are also contractually obligated to pay interest on our long-term debt and finance lease obligations. The weighted average coupon interest rate of the long-term debt obligations outstanding as of February 28, 2021, was approximately 4.7%.

The operating lease obligations noted in the table above have not been reduced by non-cancellable sublease rentals of $5.1 million.

As of May 31, 2020, we had aggregate unfunded pension and postretirement benefit obligations totaling $52.1 million and $86.4 million, respectively. These amounts are not included in the table above as the unfunded obligations are remeasured each fiscal year, thereby resulting in our inability to accurately predict the ultimate amount and timing of any future required contributions to such plans. Based on current statutory requirements, we are not obligated to fund any amount to our qualified pension plans during the next twelve months. We estimate that we will make payments of approximately $32.2 million and $10.0 million over the next twelve months to fund our pension and postretirement plans, respectively. See Note 12 "Pension and Postretirement Benefits", to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this report and Note 18 "Pension and Postretirement Benefits", to the Consolidated Financial Statements and "Critical Accounting Estimates – Employment-Related Benefits" contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2020 for further discussion of our pension obligations and factors that could affect estimates of this liability.

As part of our ongoing operations, we also enter into arrangements that obligate us to make future cash payments only upon the occurrence of a future event. As of February 28, 2021, we had $55.8 million of standby letters of credit issued on our behalf. These standby letters of credit are primarily related to our self-insured workers compensation programs and are not reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets contained in this report.

In certain limited situations, we will guarantee obligations of unconsolidated entities. For further discussion on these guarantees, see "Guarantees and Other Contingencies" within Note 11 "Contingencies", to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this report.

The obligations and commitments disclosed above do not include any reserves for uncertainties in income taxes, as we are unable to reasonably estimate the ultimate amount or timing of settlement of our reserves for income taxes. The liability for gross unrecognized tax benefits at February 28, 2021 was $34.4 million. The net amount of unrecognized tax benefits at February 28, 2021, that, if recognized, would impact our effective tax rate was $29.2 million. Recognition of these tax benefits would have a favorable impact on our effective tax rate.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Consistent with previous years, we will perform our annual impairment test on our indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. We recognized impairment charges on several brands, primarily from the Pinnacle acquisition, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020. These assets were written down to their respective fair values resulting in zero excess fair value over carrying amount. While most of these brands have had elevated sales demand as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, some brands have also experienced deterioration in margins due to several factors, including recent input cost inflation. If expectations of future long-term growth rates and margins are not met or if management's future strategy changes on certain brands, there is a heightened risk of future impairment. No events occurred during the third quarter of fiscal 2021 that indicated it was more likely than not that our indefinite-lived intangible assets were impaired.

For further d iscussion of our critical accounting estimates, please refer to the "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" section in Part I I, Item 7, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2020.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The principal market risks affecting us are exposures to price fluctuations of commodity and energy inputs, interest rates, and foreign currencies.

Other than the changes noted below, there have been no material changes in our market risk during the thirty-nine weeks ended February 28, 2021. For additional information, refer to the "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" section in Part II, Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2020.

Commodity Market Risk

We purchase commodity inputs such as wheat, corn, oats, soybean meal, soybean oil, meat, dairy products, nuts, sugar, natural gas, electricity, and packaging materials to be used in our operations. These commodities are subject to price fluctuations that may create price risk. We enter into commodity hedges to manage this price risk using physical forward contracts or derivative instruments. We have policies governing the hedging instruments our businesses may use. These policies include limiting the dollar risk exposure for each of our businesses. We also monitor the amount of associated counter-party credit risk for all non-exchange-traded transactions.

Interest Rate Risk

We may use interest rate swaps to manage the effect of interest rate changes on the fair value of our existing debt as well as the forecasted interest payments for the anticipated issuance of debt.

The carrying amount of long-term debt (including current installments) was $8.50 billion as of February 28, 2021. Based on current market rates, the fair value of this debt at February 28, 2021 was estimated at $9.99 billion. As of February 28, 2021, a 1% increase in the interest rates would decrease the fair value of our fixed rate debt by approximately $702.2 million, while a 1% decrease in interest rates would increase the fair value of our fixed rate debt by approximately $803.3 million.

Foreign Currency Risk

In order to reduce exposures for our processing activities related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, we may enter into forward exchange or option contracts for transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency for certain of our operations. This activity primarily relates to economically hedging against foreign currency risk in purchasing inventory and capital equipment, sales of finished goods, and future settlement of foreign denominated assets and liabilities.

Value-at-Risk (VaR)

We employ various tools to monitor our derivative risk, including value-at-risk ("VaR") models. We perform simulations using historical data to estimate potential losses in the fair value of current derivative positions. We use price and volatility information for the prior 90 days in the calculation of VaR that is used to monitor our daily risk. The purpose of this measurement is to provide a single view of the potential risk of loss associated with derivative positions at a given point in time based on recent changes in market prices. Our model uses a 95% confidence level. Accordingly, in any given one-day time period, losses greater than the amounts included in the table below are expected to occur only 5% of the time. We include commodity swaps, futures, and options and foreign exchange forwards, swaps, and options in this calculation. The following table provides an overview of our average daily VaR for our energy, agriculture, and foreign exchange positions during the thirty-nine weeks ended February 28, 2021 and February 23, 2020.

|  | Fair Value Impact |
In Millions |  | Average During Thirty-nine Weeks Ended February 28, 2021 |  |  | Average During Thirty-nine Weeks Ended February 23, 2020 |
Energy commodities |  | $ | 0.6 |  |  | $ | 0.4 |
Agriculture commodities |  |  | 0.2 |  |  |  | 0.4 |
Other commodities |  |  | — |  |  |  | 0.1 |
Foreign exchange |  |  | 1.0 |  |  |  | 0.6 |

(1) | The Board approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to purchase shares of its common stock in December 2003, which share repurchase authorization has been subsequently increased from time to time. On June 27, 2018, we announced that the Board increased the amount of the share repurchase authorization by $1.0 billion. As of February 28, 2021, approximately $1.12 billion of our common stock remained available for purchase under this authorization, which has no expiration. Under the share repurchase authorization, we may repurchase our shares periodically over several years, depending on market conditions and other factors, and may do so in open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions.
