This amendment adjusted the existing production agreement to better match the Company’s future capacity requirements and resulted in increased production flexibility and more favorable termination rights to the Company in exchange for a $26 million cash payment to Rauch which was paid on December 23, 2024. As a result of the payment, the Company recorded a pre-tax contract settlement expense of $26 million in the fourth quarter of 2024.

During the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, the Company recorded $0.8 million and $1.0 million, respectively, in shortfall fees. At current volume projections, the Company anticipates that it will recognize approximately $36 million of shortfall fees in the future with $16 million forecasted to be expensed in the remainder of 2025 and $20 million expected to be expensed in future years thereafter, primarily in 2026. As of March 29, 2025, if volume for the remaining term of the production arrangements was zero, the total contractual shortfall fees, with advance notice as specified in the related contractual agreements, would total approximately $38 million with $26 million due in the remainder of 2025 and $12 million due in future years thereafter. The Company has regular discussions with its third-party production suppliers related to its future capacity needs and the terms of its contracts. Changes to volume estimates, future amendments or cancellations of existing contracts could accelerate or change total shortfall fees expected to be incurred.
