NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

Note 1 | The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 25, 2021.

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 Company’s financial position and the results of operations and cash flows.

The results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 25, 2022 and June 26, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. Sales of our frozen beverages and frozen novelties are generally higher in the third and fourth quarters due to warmer weather. Also, approximately 2/3 of our sales are to venues and locations that previously shut down or sharply curtailed their foodservice operations as a result of COVID-19. While the majority of these venues have reopened, the extent of the future impact of COVID-19 on our operations depends on future developments of the virus and its effects which are uncertain at this time.

While we believe that the disclosures presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, we suggest that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 25, 2021.

Note 2 | On June 21, 2022, J & J Snack Foods Corp. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, DD Acquisition Holdings, LLC, completed the acquisition of one hundred percent (100%) of the equity interests of Dippin’ Dots Holding, L.L.C. (“Dippin’ Dots”) which, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, owns and operates the Dippin’ Dots and Doc Popcorn businesses. The purchase price was approximately $223,561,000, consisting entirely of cash, and may be modified for certain customary post-closing purchase price adjustments.

9

Dippin’ Dots is a leading producer of flash-frozen beaded ice cream treats, and the acquisition will leverage synergies in entertainment and amusement locations, theaters, and convenience to continue to expand our business. The acquisition also includes the Doc Popcorn business operated by Dippin’ Dots.

The financial results of Dippin’ Dots have been included in our consolidated financial statements since the date of the acquisition. Sales and net earnings of Dippin’ Dots since the date of acquisition were $2,218,000 and $621,000 for the three and nine-months ended June 25, 2022. Dippin’ Dots is reported as part of our Food Service segment. Included within Administrative expenses for the quarter were $3,088,000 of acquisition costs.

Upon acquisition, the assets and liabilities of Dippin’ Dots were adjusted to their respective fair values as of the closing date of the transaction, including the identifiable intangible assets acquired. In addition, the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired has been recorded as goodwill. The fair value estimates used in valuing certain acquired assets and liabilities are based, in part, on inputs that are unobservable. For intangible assets, these include, but are not limited to, forecasted future cash flows, revenue growth rates, attrition rates and discount rates.

The purchase price allocation as of the date of acquisition was based on a preliminary valuation and is subject to revision as more detailed analyses are completed and additional information about the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed becomes available.

10

The major classes of assets and liabilities to which we have preliminarily allocated the purchase price were as follows:

Preliminary Dippin' Dots Purchase Price Allocation (1)

|  | (in thousands) |
|  | June 21, |
|  | 2022 |
Cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | 2,259 |

Property, plant and equipment, net |  |  | 24,622 |
Intangible assets |  |  | 120,400 |
Goodwill(2) |  |  | 66,634 |
Operating lease right-of-use assets |  |  | 3,514 |
Other noncurrent assets |  |  | 243 |
Total assets acquired |  |  | 239,956 |
Liabilities assumed: |  |  |  |
Current lease liabilities |  |  | 619 |
Accounts payable |  |  | 6,005 |
Other current liabilities |  |  | 3,532 |
Noncurrent lease liabilities |  |  | 2,954 |
Other noncurrent liabilities |  |  | 3,285 |
Total liabilities acquired |  |  | 16,395 |
Purchase price |  | $ | 223,561 |

(1) | Due to the limited time since the date of the acquisition, the purchase price allocation remains preliminary.
(2) | Goodwill was assigned to our Food Services segment and was primarily attributed to the assembled workforce of the acquired business and to our expectations of favorable growth opportunities in entertainment and amusement locations, theaters, and convenience based on increased synergies that are expected to be achieved from the integration of Dippin’ Dots.

The pro forma information does not reflect the potential benefits of cost and funding synergies, opportunities to earn additional revenues, or other factors, and therefore does not represent what the actual Net sales and Net earnings would have been had the companies actually been combined as of this date.

Note 3

Revenue Recognition

When Performance Obligations Are Satisfied

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account for revenue recognition. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied.

12

The singular performance obligation of our customer contracts for product and machine sales is determined by each individual purchase order and the respective products ordered, with revenue being recognized at a point-in-time when the obligation under the terms of the agreement is satisfied and product control is transferred to our customer. Specifically, control transfers to our customers when the product is delivered to, installed, or picked up by our customers based upon applicable shipping terms, as our customers can direct the use and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the product at this point in time. The performance obligations in our customer contracts for product are generally satisfied within 30 days.

The singular performance obligation of our customer contracts for time and material repair and maintenance equipment service is the performance of the repair and maintenance with revenue being recognized at a point-in-time when the repair and maintenance is completed.

The singular performance obligation of our customer repair and maintenance equipment service contracts is the performance of the repair and maintenance with revenue being recognized over the time the service is expected to be performed. Our customers are billed for service contracts in advance of performance and therefore we have a contract liability recorded within Accrued liabilities on our balance sheet.

The Company is entitled to royalties under its agreements with franchisees. Sales-based royalties are related entirely to the Company’s performance obligation under the franchise agreements and are recognized on a monthly basis. Purchase-based royalties are related entirely to the Company’s performance obligation under the franchise agreements and are recognized on a weekly basis.

Under franchise agreements, the Company provides franchisees with a franchise license allowing the use of brand intellectual property and certain ongoing services. As the performance obligations are satisfied, over time, franchise, renewal and transfer fees are recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the franchise agreement.

Significant Payment Terms

In general, within our customer contracts, the purchase order identifies the product, quantity, price, pick-up allowances, payment terms and final delivery terms. Although some payment terms may be more extended, presently the majority of our payment terms are 30 days. As a result, we have used the available practical expedient and, consequently, do not adjust our revenues for the effects of a significant financing component.

13

Shipping

All amounts billed to customers related to shipping and handling are classified as revenues; therefore, we recognize revenue for shipping and handling fees at the time the products are shipped or when services are performed. The cost of shipping products to the customer is recognized at the time the products are shipped to the customer and our policy is to classify them as Distribution expenses.

Variable Consideration

In addition to fixed contract consideration, our contracts include some form of variable consideration, including sales discounts, trade promotions and certain other sales and consumer incentives, including rebates and coupon redemptions. In general, variable consideration is treated as a reduction in revenue when the related revenue is recognized. Depending on the specific type of variable consideration, we use the most likely amount method to determine the variable consideration. We believe there will be no significant changes to our estimates of variable consideration when any related uncertainties are resolved with our customers. We review and update our estimates and related accruals of variable consideration each period based on historical experience. Our recorded liability for allowances, end-user pricing adjustments and trade spending was $16,907,000 at June 25, 2022 and $14,646,000 at September 25, 2021.

Warranties & Returns

We provide all customers with a standard or assurance type warranty. Either stated or implied, we provide assurance the related products will comply with all agreed-upon specifications and other warranties provided under the law. No services beyond an assurance warranty are provided to our customers.

We do not grant a general right of return. However, customers may return defective or non-conforming products. Customer remedies may include either a cash refund or an exchange of the product. We do not estimate a right of return and related refund liability as returns of our products are rare.

14

Contract Balances

Contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue resulting from service contracts in our Frozen Beverages segment where our customers are billed for service in advance of performance. Contract liabilities also consist of deferred revenue in our Food Service segment resulting from initial franchise fees paid by franchisees, as well as renewal and transfer fees paid by franchisees and license fees paid by licensees which are generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the underlying agreement. Therefore, we have contract liabilities on our balance sheet as follows:

|  | (in thousands) |
|  | Three Months Ended |  |  | Nine Months Ended |
|  | June 25, |  |  | June 26, |  |  | June 25, |  |  | June 26, |

Ending Balance |  | $ | 2,086 |  |  | $ | 1,044 |  |  | $ | 2,086 |  |  | $ | 1,044 |

Disaggregation of Revenue

See Note 11 for disaggregation of our net sales by class of similar product and type of customer.

Allowance for Doubtful Receivables

We provide an allowance for doubtful receivables after taking into consideration historical experience and other factors. On September 27, 2020, the Company adopted guidance issued by the FASB in ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires companies to recognize an allowance that reflects a current estimate of credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the asset. Adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. The Company continuously monitors collections and payments from its customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses. The allowance for doubtful accounts considers a number of factors including the age of receivable balances, the history of losses, expectations of future credit losses and the customers’ ability to pay off obligations. The allowance for doubtful receivables was $1,629,000 and $1,405,000 on June 25, 2022 and September 25, 2021, respectively.

Note 4 | 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, technology, and non-compete agreements arising from acquisitions are amortized by the straight-line method over periods ranging from 2 to 20 years. Depreciation expense was $12,424,000 and $12,025,000 for the three months ended June 25, 2022 and June 26, 2021, respectively and $36,292,000 and $36,278,000 for the nine months ended June 25, 2022 and June 26, 2021, respectively.

Note 5 | 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 6 | At June 25, 2022, the Company has three stock-based employee compensation plans. Share-based compensation expense was recognized as follows:

|  | Three Months Ended |  |  | Nine Months Ended |
|  | June 25, |  |  | June 26, |  |  | June 25, |  |  | June 26, |

Performance stock issued to employees |  |  | 83 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 204 |  |  |  | - |
Total share-based compensation |  | $ | 1,018 |  |  | $ | 717 |  |  | $ | 2,935 |  |  | $ | 2,121 |
The above compensation is net of tax benefits |  | $ | 116 |  |  | $ | 265 |  |  | $ | 549 |  |  | $ | 1,131 |

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes options-pricing model.

During the fiscal year 2022 nine-month period, the Company granted 115,700 stock options. The weighted-average grant date fair value of these options was $23.36.

During the fiscal year 2021 nine-month period, the Company granted 138,432 stock options. The weighted-average grant date fair value of these options was $31.20.

The Company issued 327 service share units (“RSU”)’s in the three-months ended June 25, 2022, and 9,200 RSU’s in the nine-months ended June 25, 2022. Each RSU entitles the awardee to one share of common stock upon vesting. The fair value of RSU’s was determined based upon the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. No such RSU’s were issued in the three or nine-months ended June 26, 2021.

In November 2021, the Company also issued 8,868 performance share units (“PSU”)’s. Each PSU may result in the issuance of up to two shares of common stock upon vesting, dependent upon the level of achievement of the applicable Performance Goal. The fair value of the PSU’s was determined based upon the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Additionally, the Company applies a quarterly probability assessment in computing this non-cash compensation expense, and any change in estimate is reflected as a cumulative adjustment to expense in the quarter of the change. No such PSU’s were issued in the three-months ended June 25, 2022 or in the three or nine-months ended June 26, 2021.

Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the price of our common shares over the past 51 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 7 | 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.

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 $343,000 on both June 25, 2022 and September 25, 2021, respectively, all of which would impact our effective tax rate over time, if recognized. We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a part of the provision for income taxes. As of June 25, 2022, and September 25, 2021, the Company has $267,000 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.

Our effective tax rate was 26% for the nine months ended June 25, 2022 and 24% for the nine months ended June 26, 2021. Our effective tax rate was 27% for the three months ended June 25, 2022 and 25% for the three months ended June 26, 2021.

Note 8 | In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which changes the impairment model used to measure credit losses for most financial assets. We are required to recognize an allowance that reflects the Company’s current estimate of credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the financial asset, including trade receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities.

The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of Fiscal 2021 using the modified retrospective transition method. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 9 | In December 2021, the Company entered into an amended and restated loan agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with our existing banks which provided for up to a $50,000,000 revolving credit facility repayable in December 2026.

Interest accrues, at the Company’s election at (i) the BSBY Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus an applicable margin, based upon the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement, or (ii) the Alternate Base Rate (a rate based on the higher of (a) the prime rate announced from time-to-time by the Administrative Agent, (b) the Federal Reserve System’s federal funds rate, plus 0.50% or (c) the Daily BSBY Rate, plus an applicable margin. The Alternate Base Rate is defined in the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with various affirmative and negative covenants, including without limitation (i) covenants to maintain a minimum specified interest coverage ratio and maximum specified net leverage ratio, and (ii) subject to certain exceptions, covenants that prevent or restrict the Company’s ability to pay dividends, engage in certain mergers or acquisitions, make certain investments or loans, incur future indebtedness, alter its capital structure or line of business, prepay subordinated indebtedness, engage in certain transactions with affiliates, or amend its organizational documents. As of June 25, 2022, the Company is in compliance with all financial covenants of the Credit Agreement.

On June 21, 2022, the Company entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement, the “Amended Credit Agreement” which provided for an incremental increase of $175,000,000 in available borrowings. The Amended Credit Agreement also includes an option to increase the size of the revolving credit facility by up to an amount not to exceed in the aggregate the greater of $225,000,000 or, $50,000,000 plus the Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrowers, subject to the satisfaction of certain terms and conditions.

As of June 25, 2022, $125,000,000 was outstanding under the Amended Credit Agreement. These borrowings have been classified as Long-Term Debt on the Company’s Balance Sheet. As of June 25, 2022, the amount available under the Amended Credit Agreement was $91,225,000 million, after giving effect to the outstanding letters of credit. As of September 25, 2021, there were no outstanding balances under the Credit Agreement.

Note 11 | 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 Maker.

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. These segments are described below.

Food Service

The primary products sold by the food service segment are soft pretzels, frozen novelties, churros, handheld products and baked goods. Our customers in the food service segment include snack bars and food stands in chain, department and discount stores; malls and shopping centers; casual dining restaurants, 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 to the retail supermarket channel are soft pretzel products – including SUPERPRETZEL, frozen novelties including LUIGI’S Real Italian Ice, MINUTE MAID Juice Bars and Soft Frozen Lemonade, WHOLE FRUIT frozen fruit bars and sorbet, PHILLY SWIRL cups and sticks, ICEE Squeeze-Up Tubes and handheld products. Within the retail supermarket channel, our frozen and prepackaged products are purchased by the consumer for consumption at home.

21

Frozen Beverages

The Company markets frozen beverages primarily under the names ICEE, SLUSH PUPPIE and PARROT ICE which are sold primarily 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, Retail Supermarkets and Frozen Beverages reviews monthly detailed operating income statements and sales reports in order to assess performance and allocate resources to each individual segment. Sales and operating income are key variables monitored by the Chief Operating Decision Maker and management when determining each segment’s, and the Company’s, financial condition and operating performance. In addition, the Chief Operating Decision Maker reviews and evaluates 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:

Amortizing intangible assets are being amortized by the straight-line method over periods ranging from 2 to 20 years and amortization expense is reflected throughout operating expenses. Aggregate amortization expense of intangible assets for the three months ended June 25, 2022 and June 26, 2021 was $584,000 and $639,000, respectively. Aggregate amortization expense of intangible assets for the nine months ended June 25, 2022 and June 26, 2021 was $1,766,000 and $2,096,000, respectively

23

Estimated amortization expense for the next five fiscal years is approximately $3,500,000 in 2022, $6,700,000 in 2023, $6,400,000 in 2024, $5,800,000 in 2025, and $5,800,000 in 2026.

The weighted amortization period of the intangible assets, in total, is 10.4 years. The weighted amortization period by intangible asset class is 10 years for Technology, 10 years for Customer relationships, 20 years for Licenses & rights, and 10 years for Franchise agreements.

Note 13 | 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.

24

Marketable securities held to maturity and available for sale consist primarily of investments in mutual funds, preferred stock, and corporate bonds. The fair values of mutual funds are based on quoted market prices in active markets and are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of preferred stock and corporate bonds are based on quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active. As a result, preferred stock and corporate bonds are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The amortized cost, unrealized gains and losses, and fair market values of our investment securities held to maturity at June 25, 2022 are summarized as follows:

|  |  |  |  |  | Gross |  |  | Gross |  |  | Fair |

The mutual funds seek current income with an emphasis on maintaining low volatility and overall moderate duration. The Fixed-to-Floating Perpetual Preferred Stock generate fixed income to call dates in 2025 and then income is based on a spread above LIBOR if the securities are not called. The mutual funds and Fixed-to-Floating Perpetual Preferred Stock do not have contractual maturities; however, we classify them as long-term assets as it is our intent to hold them for a period of over one year, although we may sell some or all of them depending on presently unanticipated needs for liquidity or market conditions. The corporate bonds generate fixed income to maturity dates in 2022 through 2023, with $4.5 million maturing within the next 12 months. Our expectation is that we will hold the corporate bonds to their maturity dates and redeem them at our amortized cost.

Note 15 – | Leases

General Lease Description

We have operating leases with initial noncancelable lease terms in excess of one year covering the rental of various facilities and equipment. Certain of these leases contain renewal options and some provide options to purchase during the lease term. Our operating leases include leases for real estate for some of our office and manufacturing facilities as well as manufacturing and non-manufacturing equipment used in our business. The remaining lease terms for these operating leases range from 1 month to 13 years.

We have finance leases with initial noncancelable lease terms in excess of one year covering the rental of various equipment. These leases are generally for manufacturing and non-manufacturing equipment used in our business. The remaining lease terms for these finance leases range from 1 year to 5 years.

Significant Assumptions and Judgments

Contract Contains a Lease

In evaluating our contracts to determine whether a contract is or contains a lease, we considered the following:

• Whether explicitly or implicitly identified assets have been deployed in the contract; and

• Whether we obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of that underlying asset, and we can direct how and for what purpose the asset is used during the term of the contract.

28

Allocation of Consideration

In determining how to allocate consideration between lease and non-lease components in a contract that was deemed to contain a lease, we used judgment and consistent application of assumptions to reasonably allocate the consideration.

Options to Extend or Terminate Leases

We have leases which contain options to extend or terminate the leases. On a lease-by-lease basis, we have determined if the extension should be considered reasonably certain to be exercised and thus a right-of-use asset and a lease liability should be recorded.

Discount Rate

The discount rate for leases, if not explicitly stated in the lease, is the incremental borrowing rate, which is the rate of interest that we would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.

We used the discount rate to calculate the present value of the lease liability at the date of adoption. In the development of the discount rate, we considered our incremental borrowing rate as provided by our lender which was based on cash collateral and credit risk specific to us, and our lease portfolio characteristics.

As of June 25, 2022, the weighted-average discount rate of our operating and finance leases was 3.3% and 3.2%, respectively. As of June 26, 2021, the weighted-average discount rate of our operating and finance leases was 3.2% and 3.2%, respectively.

Practical Expedients and Accounting Policy Elections

We elected the package of practical expedients that permits us not to reassess our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs and made an accounting policy election to exclude short-term leases with an initial term of 12 months or less from our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 16 | We have related party expenses for distribution and shipping related costs with NFI Industries, Inc. Our director, Sidney R. Brown, is CEO of NFI Industries, Inc. The Company paid $12,004,000 and $15,984,000 to NFI in the three and nine months ended June 25, 2022 and paid $19,000 and $115,000 through the three and nine months ended June 26, 2021. Of the amounts paid to NFI, the amount related to management services performed by NFI was $149,000 and $403,000 in the three and nine months ended June 25, 2022, and $19,000 and $115,000 through the three and nine months ended June 26, 2021. The remainder of the costs related to amounts that were passed through to the third-party distribution and shipping vendors that are being managed on the Company’s behalf by NFI. The agreements with NFI include terms that are consistent with those that we believe would have been negotiated at an arm’s length with an independent party. As of June 25, 2022 our consolidated balance sheet included related party trade payables of approximately $3,305,000. We had no related party trade payable balance as of September 25, 2021.

These statements often can be identified by the use of terms such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “approximate,” “intend” or “continue,” or the negative thereof. We intend that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbor provisions of the Act and the Exchange Act. We wish to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Any forward-looking statements represent management’s best judgment as to what may occur in the future.

We disclaim any obligation subsequently to revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statement or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our current cash and cash equivalents balances, investments 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 working capital, capital spending, debt service requirements and future growth and expansion for at least the next twelve months. See Note 13 to these financial statements for a discussion of our investment securities.

The Company’s Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.633 per share of its common stock payable on July 11, 2022, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on June 20, 2022.

On August 4, 2017 the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the purchase and retirement of 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock; 318,858 shares remain to be purchased under this authorization. We did not purchase any shares of our common stock in the nine months ended June 25, 2022, nor did we purchase any shares of our common stock in fiscal year 2021.

In the three months ended June 25, 2022 and June 26, 2021, 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 $93,000 and a decrease of $657,000 in accumulated other comprehensive loss, respectively. In the nine months ended June 25, 2022 and June 26, 2021, 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 a decrease of $9,000 and $2,405,000 in accumulated other comprehensive loss, respectively.

In December 2021, the Company entered into an amended and restated loan agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with our existing banks which provided for up to a $50,000,000 revolving credit facility repayable in December 2026.

On June 21, 2022, the Company entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement, the “Amended Credit Agreement” which provided for an incremental increase of $175,000,000 in available borrowings. The Amended Credit Agreement also includes an option to increase the size of the revolving credit facility by up to an amount not to exceed in the aggregate the greater of $225,000,000 or $50,000,000 plus the Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrowers, subject to the satisfaction of certain terms and conditions.

As of June 25, 2022, $125,000,000 was outstanding under the Amended Credit Agreement. These borrowings have been classified as Long-Term Debt on the Company’s Balance Sheet. As of June 25, 2022, the amount available under the Amended Credit Agreement was $91,225,000, after giving effect to the outstanding letters of credit. As of September 25, 2021, there were no outstanding balances under the Credit Agreement. As of June 25, 2022, the Company is in compliance with all financial covenants of the Credit Agreement.

Critical Accounting Policies, Judgments and Estimates

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies, judgments and estimates from the information provided in Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies, Judgments and Estimates, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 25, 2021, as filed with the SEC on November 23, 2021.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales increased by 17% to $380,227,000 in the third quarter and by 19% to $980,230,000 for the nine months ended June 25, 2022 compared to the three and nine months ended June 26, 2021, respectively.

FOOD SERVICE

Sales to food service customers increased by 16% in the third quarter to $227,842,000 and by 17% to $615,914,000 for the nine months, compared to respective prior year periods. Sales were up across most product lines as many of the venues and locations where our products are sold that were previously shut down or operating at reduced capacity in the first nine months of 2021 have partially or fully re-opened in the first nine months of 2022. Theaters and outdoor venues, including stadiums and amusement parks, as well as schools, restaurants and strategic accounts continued to experience an increase in visitation that drove strong sales in our core products.

Soft pretzel sales to the food service market increased by 10% to $55,946,000 in the third quarter and by 24% to $149,628,000 in the nine months compared to respective prior year periods. Frozen novelties sales increased by 23% to $17,155,000 in the third quarter and increased by 7% to $32,917,000 in the nine months compared to respective prior year periods. Churro sales to food service customers increased by 27% to $25,614,000 in the third quarter and increased by 35% to $62,550,000 in the nine months compared to respective prior year periods. Sales of bakery products increased by 11% in the third quarter to $95,495,000 and increased 12% to $287,293,000 for the nine months compared to respective prior year periods. Sales of handhelds increased 36% in the third quarter to $25,740,000 and by 14% to $64,741,000 in the nine months compared to respective prior year periods.

Sales of new products in the first twelve months since their introduction were approximately $700,000 in the third quarter and $4,600,000 in the nine months, driven primarily by new bakery items, including a new empanada product with a major convenience customer. Price increases had a moderate impact on sales in the quarter, and the overall revenue growth included marginal volume increases as well.

Compared to prior year, operating income in our Food Service segment decreased by 85% to $2,640,000 in the third quarter and by 59% to $12,177,000 in the nine months reflecting the significant increase in ingredients, production and distribution costs year over year, as well as our ERP implementation which previously impacted our results in the fiscal second quarter.

33

RETAIL SUPERMARKETS

Compared to prior year, sales of products to retail supermarkets increased by 13% to $61,008,000 in the third quarter and increased by 6% to $144,460,000 in the nine months. Our SUPERPRETZEL brand has performed well helping to drive a 4% increase in sales of soft pretzels in the third quarter to $11,696,000 and a 7% increase in sales in the nine months to $43,642,000. Sales of frozen novelties increased by 13% to $41,865,000 in the third quarter and increased by 10% to $78,586,000 in the nine months compared to respective prior year periods, largely driven by the addition of new stock keeping units, and additional product placement with some of our key brands. Sales of biscuits increased by 33% to $6,066,000 in the third quarter and by 7% to $20,024,000 in the nine months compared to respective prior year periods. Handheld sales to retail supermarket customers increased by 33% to $1,589,000 in the third quarter but decreased by 37% to $3,934,000 in the nine months compared to respective prior year periods.

Sales of new products were approximately $400,000 for the third quarter and $900,000 in the nine months, primarily related to frozen novelty items. Price increases and volume increases both had a marginal impact on sales in the quarter.

Compared to prior year periods, operating income in our Retail Supermarkets segment decreased by 74% to $2,341,000 in the third quarter and by 58% to $8,416,000 in the nine months. The decreases in operating income were primarily attributable to higher cost of goods sold as well as higher shipping and distribution related costs, as well as our ERP implementation which previously impacted our results in the fiscal second quarter..

FROZEN BEVERAGES

Compared to prior year periods, frozen beverage and related product sales increased by 23% to $91,377,000 in the third quarter and by 39% to $219,856,000 in the nine months. Beverage related sales increased by 37% to $57,791,000 in the third quarter and by 66% to $126,919,000 in the nine months compared to respective prior year periods. Gallon sales were up 28% in the quarter and up 56% in the nine months compared to respective prior year periods. The increase in gallon sales reflects the strong demand across theaters, amusement parks, convenience and restaurants. In the amusement parks channel, we continue to see strong growth as both domestic and international visitation numbers continue to recover, and exceed, pre-COVID-19 levels. Theater sales continue on their upward trajectory as movie goers indulge in their favorite snacks and view highly anticipated movie releases. Service revenue remained relatively flat in the third quarter, but increased by 10% to $65,903,000 in the nine months, compared to respective prior year periods, led by an acceleration in maintenance calls and additional growth in one of our larger customers, earlier in the fiscal year. Machines revenue (primarily sales of frozen beverage machines) increased by 17% to $9,868,000 in the third quarter and by 23% to $25,257,000 in the nine months, compared to respective prior year periods, driven mainly by growth from large quick service restaurant (QSR) and convenience customers.

Our Frozen Beverage segment had operating income of $16,279,000 in the third quarter compared with $11,420,000 in the prior year third quarter. In the nine months, our Frozen Beverage segment had operating income of $19,600,000 compared with an operating loss of $4,094,000 in the prior year nine-month period. The comparative performance was primarily a result of higher beverage sales volume which drove leverage across the business.

CONSOLIDATED

Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 28.7% in the third quarter and 29.7% in the prior year quarter. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 25.9% in the nine-month period this year and 25.2% last year. Inflation continued to build over the quarter and nine-month period which has significantly pressured margins. The impact was especially pronounced in key raw material purchases such as flour, eggs, dairy, chocolates and meats, as well as packaging and fuel. We have pricing and cost initiatives in place to offset these cost pressures, which included a price increase early in the third quarter.

Total operating expenses increased by 51% to $87,816,000 in the third quarter and by 32% to $213,606,000 in the nine months compared to respective prior year periods. As a percentage of net sales, operating expenses increased from 17.9% to 23.1% in the third quarter and from 19.6% to 21.8% in the nine months.

Marketing expenses remained flat at 6.3% of net sales in the third quarter and decreased to 6.7% in the nine months compared with 6.9% in prior year’s nine-month period. Distribution expenses increased to 12.7% of net sales in the third quarter from 8.4% in the prior year and to 11.2% in the nine months compared with 9.2% in prior year’s nine-month period, with the increases largely driven by higher truck driver wages and rising carrier, storage and fuel costs. Administrative expenses increased to 4.1% of net sales in the third quarter from 3.2% in prior year and to 3.9% in the nine months compared with 3.5% in prior year’s nine-month period, with the increase largely attributable to $3,088,000 of merger and acquisition costs which were incurred in the third quarter.

Compared to prior year, operating income decreased by 44% to $21,260,000 in the third quarter and by 13% to $40,193,000 in the nine months as a result of the aforementioned items.

Our investments generated before tax income of $106,000 in the third quarter, a $364,000 decrease over prior year. In the nine months, our investments generated before tax income of $537,000, a 78% decrease from the prior year period. The decrease in before tax investment income compared with prior year was due to decreases in the amount of investments as well as the impact of the rising interest rate environment on our investment holdings.

Compared to prior year, net earnings decreased by 46% to $15,563,000 in the third quarter and by 19% to $29,925,000 in the nine months. Our effective tax rate was 26% in the nine months compared with 24% in the prior year’s nine-month period, as prior year’s nine-month period effective tax rate was more favorably impacted by tax benefits related to share-based compensation. Our effective tax rate was 27% in the third quarter and was 25% in the prior year third quarter.

There are many factors which can impact our net earnings from year-to-year and in the long run, among including 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.

Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There has been no material change in the Company’s assessment of its sensitivity to market risk since its presentation set forth, in item 7a. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” in its 2021 annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

Item 4. | Controls and Procedures

The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company (its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively) have concluded, based on their evaluation as of June 25, 2022, that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports filed or submitted by it under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in such reports is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 25, 2022, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. During the third quarter of 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Dippin’ Dots. As permitted by SEC staff interpretive guidance that an assessment of a recently acquired business may be omitted from the scope of evaluation for a period of up to one year following the acquisition, management excluded Dippin’ Dots from its interim evaluation of internal controls over financial reporting.
