On June 10, 2010 we acquired the assets of California Churros, Inc., a manufacturer and seller of a premium brand churro.  Revenues from CALIFORNIA CHURROS were approximately $2.5 million for our 2010 fiscal year.

In May 2011, we acquired the frozen handheld business of ConAgra Foods.  This business had sales of approximately $50 million over the prior twelve months to food service and retail supermarket customers and sales of $18.3 million in our 2011 fiscal year from the acquisition date.

 
These acquisitions were and will be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and their operations are and will be included in the consolidated financial statements from their respective acquisition dates.
