NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

Note 1 In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported net earnings.

The results of operations for the three months and nine months ended June 29, 2013 and June 23, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. Sales of our frozen beverages and frozen juice bars and ices are generally higher in the third and fourth quarters due to warmer weather.

While we believe that the disclosures presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2012.

Note 2 We recognize revenue from our products when the products are shipped to our customers. Repair and maintenance equipment service revenue is recorded when it is performed provided the customer terms are that the customer is to be charged on a time and material basis or on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract when the customer has signed a service contract. Revenue is recognized only where persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, our price is fixed or estimable and collectability is reasonably assured. We record offsets to revenue for allowances, end-user pricing adjustments, trade spending, coupon redemption costs and returned product. Customers generally do not have the right to return product unless it is damaged or defective. We provide an allowance for doubtful receivables after taking into consideration historical experience and other factors. The allowance for doubtful receivables was $853,000 and $685,000 at June 29, 2013 and September 29, 2012, respectively.

Note 3 Depreciation of equipment and buildings is provided for by the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives. Amortization of improvements is provided for by the straight-line method over the term of the lease or the assets’ estimated useful lives, whichever is shorter. Licenses and rights, customer relationships and non compete agreements arising from acquisitions are amortized by the straight-line method over periods ranging from 3 to 20 years. Depreciation expense was $7,434,000 and $6,620,000 for the three months ended June 29, 2013 and June 23, 2012, respectively, and for the nine months ended June 29, 2013 and June 23, 2012 was $21,298,000 and $19,332,000, respectively

Note 4 Basic earnings per common share (EPS) excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS takes into consideration the potential dilution that could occur if securities (stock options) or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock. Our calculation of EPS is as follows:

Note 5 At June 29, 2013, the Company has three stock-based employee compensation plans. Share-based compensation was recognized as follows:

|  | Three months ended |  |  | Nine months ended |
|  | June 29, 2013 |  |  | June 23, 2012 |  |  | June 29, 2013 |  |  | June 23, 2012 |
|  | (in thousands, except per share amounts) |
Stock Options |  | $ | 206 |  |  | $ | 191 |  |  | $ | 596 |  |  | $ | 484 |
Stock purchase plan |  |  | 179 |  |  |  | 112 |  |  |  | 316 |  |  |  | 214 |
Stock issued to outside directors |  |  | 11 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 35 |  |  |  | - |
Restricted stock issued to an employee |  |  | 4 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 13 |  |  |  | - |
|  | $ | 400 |  |  | $ | 303 |  |  | $ | 960 |  |  | $ | 698 |
Per diluted share |  | $ | 0.02 |  |  | $ | 0.02 |  |  | $ | 0.05 |  |  | $ | 0.04 |
The above compensation is net of tax benefits |  | $ | 142 |  |  | $ | 47 |  |  | $ | 498 |  |  | $ | 221 |

The Company anticipates that share-based compensation will not exceed $1.4 million net of tax benefits, or approximately $.07 per share for the fiscal year ending September 28, 2013.

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes options-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used for grants in fiscal 2013 first nine months: expected volatility of 26%; risk-free interest rate of .81%; dividend rate of .9% and expected lives of 5 years.

During the 2013 nine month period, the Company granted 1,600 stock options. The weighted-average grant date fair value of these options was $13.76. During the 2012 nine month period, the Company granted 2,000 stock options. The weighted-average grant date fair value of these options was $11.97.

Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the price of our common shares over the past 55 months for 5 year options and 10 years for 10 year options. We use historical information to estimate expected life and forfeitures within the valuation model. The expected term of awards represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the expected life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Compensation cost is recognized using a straight-line method over the vesting or service period and is net of estimated forfeitures.

Note 6 We account for our income taxes under the liability method. Under the liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates that will be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred tax expense is the result of changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

10

Additionally, we recognize a liability for income taxes and associated penalties and interest for tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return which are more likely than not to be overturned by taxing authorities (“uncertain tax positions”). We have not recognized a tax benefit in our financial statements for these uncertain tax positions.

The total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits is $425,000 and $541,000 on June 29, 2013 and September 29, 2012, respectively, all of which would impact our effective tax rate over time, if recognized. We recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters as a part of the provision for income taxes. As of June 29, 2013 and September 29, 2012, respectively, the Company has $271,000 and $284,000 of accrued interest and penalties.

In addition to our federal tax return and tax returns for Mexico and Canada, we file tax returns in all states that have a corporate income tax with virtually all open for examination for three to four years.

Note 7 In June 2011, the FASB issued guidance which gives us the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both options, we are required to present each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. This guidance eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders' equity. The amendments in this guidance do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. This guidance was adopted in our fiscal year 2013 first quarter and did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

Note 9 We principally sell our products to the food service and retail supermarket industries. Sales and results of our frozen beverages business are monitored separately from the balance of our food service business because of different distribution and capital requirements. We maintain separate and discrete financial information for the three operating segments mentioned above which is available to our Chief Operating Decision Makers.

We have applied no aggregation criteria to any of these operating segments in order to determine reportable segments. Our three reportable segments are Food Service, Retail Supermarkets and Frozen Beverages. All inter-segment net sales and expenses have been eliminated in computing net sales and operating income (loss). These segments are described below.

Food Service

The primary products sold by the food service group are soft pretzels, frozen juice treats and desserts, churros, dough enrobed handheld products and baked goods. Our customers in the food service industry include snack bars and food stands in chain, department and discount stores; malls and shopping centers; fast food outlets; stadiums and sports arenas; leisure and theme parks; convenience stores; movie theatres; warehouse club stores; schools, colleges and other institutions. Within the food service industry, our products are purchased by the consumer primarily for consumption at the point-of-sale.

Retail Supermarkets

The primary products sold by the retail supermarket segment are soft pretzel products – including SUPERPRETZEL, frozen juice treats and desserts including LUIGI’S Real Italian Ice, MINUTE MAID Juice Bars and Soft Frozen Lemonade, WHOLE FRUIT frozen fruit bars, WHOLE FRUIT Sorbet, ICEE Squeeze-Up Tubes, dough enrobed handheld products and TIO PEPE’S Churros. Within the retail supermarket channel, our frozen and prepackaged products are purchased by the consumer for consumption at home.

12

Frozen Beverages

We sell frozen beverages and related products to the food service industry primarily under the names ICEE, SLUSH PUPPIE and PARROT ICE in the United States, Mexico and Canada. We also provide repair and maintenance service to customers for customers’ owned equipment.

The Chief Operating Decision Maker for Food Service and Retail Supermarkets and the Chief Operating Decision Maker for Frozen Beverages monthly review detailed operating income statements and sales reports in order to assess performance and allocate resources to each individual segment. In addition, the Chief Operating Decision Makers review and evaluate depreciation, capital spending and assets of each segment on a quarterly basis to monitor cash flow and asset needs of each segment. Information regarding the operations in these three reportable segments is as follows:

Amortized intangible assets are being amortized by the straight-line method over periods ranging from 3 to 20 years and amortization expense is reflected throughout operating expenses. No intangible assets were acquired in the nine months ended June 29, 2013. Aggregate amortization expense of intangible assets for the three months ended June 29, 2013 and June 23, 2012 was $1,110,000 and $1,109,000, respectively and for the nine months ended June 29, 2013 and June 23, 2012 was $3,342,000 and $3,355,000, respectively.

14

Estimated amortization expense for the next five fiscal years is approximately $4,500,000 in 2013, $4,400,000 in 2014 and 2015 and $4,200,000 in 2016 and $1,700,000 in 2017. The weighted average amortization period of the intangible assets is 10.1 years.

There were no changes in the carrying amounts of goodwill for the three and nine months ended June 29, 2013.

Note 11 We have classified our investment securities as marketable securities held to maturity and available for sale. The FASB defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the FASB has established three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 | Observable input such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 | Observable inputs, other than Level 1 inputs in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 | Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Marketable securities held to maturity and available for sale values are derived solely from level 1 inputs.

The amortized cost, unrealized gains and losses, and fair market values of our investment securities held to maturity at June 29, 2013 are summarized as follows:

Proceeds from the redemption and sale of marketable securities were $480,000 and $23,958,000 in the three months and nine months ended June 29, 2013, respectively; and $21,000,000 and $81,023,000 in the three months and nine months ended June 23, 2012, respectively, with no gain or loss recorded. We use the specific identification method to determine the cost of securities sold.

Note 12 In June 2012, we acquired the assets of Kim & Scott’s Gourmet Pretzels, Inc., a manufacturer and seller of a premium brand soft pretzel. This business had sales of approximately $8 million over the prior twelve months to food service and retail supermarket customers and had sales of approximately $1.8 million in our 2012 fiscal year from the acquisition date.

This acquisition was and will be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and its operations are and will be included in the consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date.

The purchase price allocation for the Kim and Scott’s acquisition is as follows:

Acquisition costs of $155,000 for the Kim & Scott’s acquisition are included in other general expense in the consolidated statements of earnings for the year ended September 29, 2012.

The goodwill and intangible assets acquired in the business combination are recorded at fair value. To measure fair value for such assets, we use techniques including discounted expected future cash flows (Level 3 input).

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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our current cash and cash equivalents balances and cash expected to be provided by future operations are our primary sources of liquidity. We believe that these sources, along with our borrowing capacity, are sufficient to fund future growth and expansion. See Note 11 to these financial statements for a discussion of our investment securities.

The Company’s Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $.16 per share of its common stock payable on July 3, 2013, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on June 13, 2013.

In our fiscal year ended September 29, 2012, we purchased and retired 142,038 shares of our common stock at a cost of $8,167,125. All of the shares were purchased in the fourth quarter. Subsequent to September 29, 2012 and through October 31, 2012, we purchased and retired 48,255 shares of our common stock at a cost of $2,762,602. On November 8, 2012 the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the purchase and retirement of an additional 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. In the quarter ended June 29, 2013, we purchased and retired 58,840 shares of our common stock at a cost of $4,435,078.

In the three months ended June 29, 2013 and June 23, 2012, fluctuations in the valuation of the Mexican and Canadian currencies and the resulting translation of the net assets of our Mexican and Canadian subsidiaries caused an increase of $947,000 in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the 2013 third quarter and an increase of $880,000 in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the 2012 third quarter. In the nine month period, fluctuations in the valuation of the Mexican and Canadian currencies and the resulting translation of the net assets of our Mexican and Canadian subsidiaries caused an increase of $500,000 in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the 2013 nine month period and an increase of $105,000 in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the 2012 nine month period.

Results of Operations

Net sales increased $10,701,000 or 5% for the three months to $237,036,000 and $41,195,000 or 7% to $629,770,000 for the nine months ended June 29, 2013 compared to the three and nine months ended June 23, 2012.

Excluding sales resulting from the acquisition of Kim & Scott’s Gourmet Pretzels in June 2012, sales increased approximately 4% for the three months and 6% for the nine months.

FOOD SERVICE

Sales to food service customers increased $6,758,000 or 5% in the third quarter to $145,222,000 and increased $34,945,000 or 9% for the nine months. Excluding Kim & Scott’s sales, food service sales increased approximately 4% for the third quarter and increased 8% for the nine months. Soft pretzel sales to the food service market increased 22% to $36,136,000 in the third quarter and increased 26% to $104,067,000 in the nine months due to increased sales to restaurant chains, warehouse club stores and throughout our customer base. Increased sales to two customers accounted for approximately 50% of the increase in pretzel sales in the quarter and increased sales to three customers accounted for approximately 40% of the increase in the nine months. Without Kim & Scott’s, pretzel sales increased about 19% for the three months and 22% for the nine months. Frozen juices and ices sales decreased 16% to $16,468,000 in the three months and 13% to $34,117,000 in the nine months resulting from lower sales to school food service accounts in both periods and from lower sales to warehouse club stores in the three months. Churro sales to food service customers increased 20% to $14,774,000 in the third quarter and were up 24% to $42,648,000 in the nine months with sales to one restaurant chain accounting for virtually the entire increase in both periods.

Sales of bakery products increased $1,345,000 or 2% in the third quarter to $68,099,000 and increased $11,550,000 or 6% for the nine months as sales increases and decreases were spread throughout our customer base.

Sales of new products in the first twelve months since their introduction were approximately $1.0 million in this quarter and $8.7 million in the nine months. Price increases accounted for approximately $2.5 million of sales in the quarter and $9.0 million in the nine months and net volume increases, including new product sales as defined above and sales resulting from the acquisition of Kim & Scott’s, accounted for approximately $4.3 million of sales in the quarter and $26.0 million of sales in the nine months.

Operating income in our Food Service segment increased from $15,203,000 to $18,822,000 in the quarter and increased from $35,205,000 to $46,782,000 for the nine months. Operating income for the quarter and nine months benefited from increased sales volume, price increases and lower ingredients and packaging costs. Operating income in the third quarter was impacted by a product write down of $500,000 and by a $1.2 million increase in liability insurance expense from last year’s quarter. For the nine months, liability insurance expense was approximately $1.8 million higher than last year. The increase in insurance expense during the three and nine month periods is due to an increase in insurance company estimates for actual claims incurred but not yet paid.

RETAIL SUPERMARKETS

Sales of products to retail supermarkets increased $1,225,000 or 4% to $31,080,000 in the third quarter and were up 2% to $75,336,000 in the nine months. Excluding Kim & Scott’s sales, sales increased 3% for the third quarter and 1% for the nine months. Soft pretzel sales for the third quarter were up 12% to $8,576,000 and were up 12% to $27,200,000 for the nine months on a unit volume increase of 6% for the quarter and 10% for the nine months. Excluding Kim & Scott’s sales, soft pretzel sales increased about 9% for this quarter and 9% for the nine months. Soft pretzel sales benefited from increased distribution of our sweet cinnamon and pretzel dog varieties and perhaps from additional advertising. Sales of frozen juices and ices increased $597,000 or 3% to $18,226,000 in the third quarter and were down 1% to $33,694,000 in the nine months on a unit volume increase of 4% in this quarter and a decrease of 5% for the nine months. Frozen juices and ices sales were impacted by unseasonably cold weather in this quarter and nine months. Coupon redemption costs, a reduction of sales, increased 11% or about $97,000 for the quarter and 14% to $2,497,000 for the nine months. Handheld sales to retail supermarket customers decreased 4% to $4,995,000 in the quarter and 3% to $16,425,000 for the nine months due primarily to lower sales to one customer.

Sales of new products in the first twelve months since their introduction were less than $100,000 in the third quarter and $1.3 million in the nine months. Price increases accounted for approximately $1.1 million of sales in the quarter and $2.0 million in the nine months and net volume increases and decreases, including new product sales as defined above and Kim & Scott’s sales and net of increased coupon costs and trade spending, increased sales by approximately $100,000 in this quarter and reduced sales by $800,000 in the nine months. Operating income in our Retail Supermarkets segment decreased from $4,115,000 to $2,883,000 in the quarter and from $7,597,000 to $6,857,000 in the nine months primarily because of increased trade spending and advertising in the quarter and nine months.

FROZEN BEVERAGES

Frozen beverage and related product sales increased 5% to $60,734,000 in the third quarter and increased $5,037,000 or 4% to $143,632,000 in the nine month period. Beverage related sales alone decreased less than 1% to $40,996,000 in the third quarter and were essentially unchanged at $91,476,000 in the nine months. Gallon sales were down 3% for the three months and 3% for the nine months with two customers accounting for virtually the entire drop in the three months and 90% in the nine months. Service revenue increased 12% to $13,833,000 in the third quarter and 7% to $38,385,000 for the nine months with sales increases and decreases spread throughout our customer base.

Sales of beverage machines, which tend to fluctuate from year to year while following no specific trend, were $1,324,000 or 36% higher in the three month period and $2,382,000 higher in the nine months. The approximate number of company owned frozen beverage dispensers was 43,600 and 42,500 at June 29, 2013 and September 29, 2012, respectively. Operating income in our Frozen Beverage segment increased $106,000 to $10,679,000 in the third quarter and increased to $12,965,000 from $11,825,000 in the nine months. For the nine month period, the increase in operating income was primarily from a reduction in operating expenses.

CONSOLIDATED

Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased to 31.78% in the three month period from 32.04% last year and increased to 29.79% in the nine month period from 29.38% a year ago. Higher volume in our food service segment was the primary reason for the improved gross profit margin in the nine month period and the margin also benefitted by lower ingredient and packaging costs of approximately $700,000 in the three month period and $1.5 million in the nine months. Ingredient and packaging costs can be extremely volatile and may be significantly different from what we are presently expecting and therefore we cannot project the impact of ingredient and packaging costs on our business going forward. The third quarter gross profit margin was down because of a $500,000 product write down and $1.2 million of higher liability insurance expense in the quarter compared to last year’s quarter in our food service segment.

Total operating expenses increased $322,000 in the third quarter but as a percentage of sales decreased .72 percentage points from 19% percent to 18%. For the nine months, operating expenses increased $2,731,000, but as a percentage of sales decreased .88 percentage points from 20% to 19%. The drop in percentages was generally because of increased sales in our food service segment and lower expenses in our frozen beverage segment for the nine months and the overall reduction of $800,000 in expense because of the management and sales meeting we had in last year’s first quarter. Marketing expenses decreased about 1/2 of a percentage point from 9% to 8% of sales in the quarter and decreased from 9% to 8% of sales in the nine months also because of higher sales and reduction of expenses. Distribution expenses were 7% of sales in both years’ quarters and were 8% of sales in in both years’ nine months. Administrative expenses were 3% of sales in all periods.

Operating income increased $2,493,000 or 8% to $32,384,000 in the third quarter and increased $11,977,000 or 22% to $66,604,000 in the nine months as a result of the aforementioned items.

Investment income increased by $507,000 and $1,444,000 in the third quarter and nine months, respectively, due primarily to increased investments of marketable securities. We invested $80 million in the first quarter and $30 million in the third quarter in mutual funds that seek current income with an emphasis on maintaining low volatility and overall moderate duration. We estimate yield from these funds to approximate 3.5 – 3.75%. US Government Agency debt of $23.0 million held at September 29, 2012 which was yielding 2.0% has been called in the nine months ending June 29, 2013.

The effective income tax rate has been estimated at 36% and 38% for the quarter this year and last year, respectively and 36% and 38% for the nine months this year and last year, respectively. We are estimating an effective income tax rate of between 36% and 36 1/2% for the year. The nine months benefitted from a reduction of tax expense because of changes in estimates related to a prior year as well as by a lower underlying rate.

Net earnings increased $2,500,000 or 13% in the current three month period to $21,172,000 and increased 27% to $44,058,000 for the nine months this year from $34,580,000 last year as a result of the aforementioned items.

There are many factors which can impact our net earnings from year to year and in the long run, among which are the supply and cost of raw materials and labor, insurance costs, factors impacting sales as noted above, the continuing consolidation of our customers, our ability to manage our manufacturing, marketing and distribution activities, our ability to make and integrate acquisitions and changes in tax laws and interest rates.
