Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, without audit, with the exception of the July 1, 2017June 29, 2019 consolidated balance sheet, which was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form10-K for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2017 (the “Form10-K”). 10-K. The financial statements include consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity, and consolidated statements of cash flows. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments, except as otherwise disclosed, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for all periods presented have been made.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP)(“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates used by management are related to the accounting for the allowance for doubtful accounts, reserve for inventories, impairment testing of goodwill and other intangible assets, acquisition accounting, reserves for claims and recoveries under insurance programs, vendor rebates and other promotional incentives, bonus accruals, depreciation, amortization, determination of useful lives of tangible and intangible assets, leases, and income taxes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in theForm 10-K. Certain footnote disclosures included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to applicable rules and regulations for interim financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

RecentlyAdopted Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2015,February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)(“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU)2015-11,

Inventory(“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. This ASU requires an entity to measure most inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. When evidence exists that the net realizable value of inventory is lower than its cost, the difference shall be recognized as a loss in earnings in the period in which it occurs. The ASU is effective for public companies prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this ASU as of the beginning of fiscal 2018 and concluded that it does not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-15,Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. This ASU addresses the classification of certain specific cash flow issues including debt prepayment or extinguishment costs, settlement of certain debt instruments, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of certain insurance claims and distributions received from equity method investees. This ASU is

effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period using the retrospective transition method. The Company elected to early adopt ASU2016-15 as of the beginning of fiscal 2018. Based on our review of the ASU, the Company concluded that it has historically classified the specified cash receipts and cash payments in accordance with the clarified guidance. This ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-18,Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. This ASU requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling thebeginning-of-period andend-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The ASU requires a retrospective transition method for each period presented. The Company elected to early adopt ASU2016-18 as of the beginning of fiscal 2018. The statements of cash flows for the six months ended December 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 include restricted cash with cash when reconciling thebeginning-of-period andend-of-period total amounts.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This ASU eliminates Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which is performed by estimating the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of the reporting unit to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill. Instead, an entity will record a goodwill impairment charge based on the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying value over its estimated fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. This ASU is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and should be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company elected to early adoptASU 2017-04 as of the beginning of fiscal 2018. Upon adoption of the ASU, the Company concluded that it did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. The Company will apply ASU2017-04 on a prospective basis when analyzing goodwill impairment.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU2014-09,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)842) and has issued subsequent amendments to this guidance. This Update is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue that represents the transfer of promised goods or services to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.

Topic 606 is effective for public entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Companies may either use a full retrospective or modified retrospective approach for adoption of Topic 606. The Company will adopt the guidance in fiscal 2019 and currently plans to implement the new standard using the modified retrospective approach. However, our method is subject to change as we finalize our adoption approach for the new standard. The Company has conducted a preliminary assessment and anticipates that the timing of recognition of revenue to be substantially unchanged under the new standard. The amended guidance also requires additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures, which the Company believes will be significant to the consolidated financial statements. The Company is in the process of designing and implementing relevant controls related to adoption of the new standard.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-02,Leases (Topic 842). The ASU is a comprehensive new lease accounting model that requires companies to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. For public entities, the ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company will adoptadopted this new standard as of June 30, 2019, the guidance in fiscal 2020. Companies are required to recognizeeffective and measure leases atinitial application date, using the beginning of the earliest period presented in its financial statements using a modified retrospective approach. Comparative periods presented in the consolidated financial statements prior to June 30, 2019 continue to be presented under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 840. The Company iselected the package of practical expedients, which allowed the Company not to reassess whether arrangements contain leases, the classification of leases, and the capitalization of initial direct costs. The Company also made a policy election to exclude leases with an initial term of 12 months or less from the consolidated balance sheet, and the Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company’s June 30, 2019 adoption of the new standard resulted in the processrecognition of evaluatingoperating lease liabilities totaling $423.8 million, based upon the impactpresent value of this ASU on its future financial statementsthe remaining minimum rental payments using discount rates as of the adoption date, with $82.1 million within Operating lease liabilities - current and believes adoption$341.7 million within Operating lease liabilities, excluding current installments.

The pronouncement changes the impairment model for most financial assets and will require the use of an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost. Under this model, entities will be required to estimate the lifetime expected credit loss on such instruments and record an allowance to offset the amortized cost basis of the financial asset, resulting in a net presentation of the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted.The Company plans to adopt the new standard in fiscal 2021.

The amendments in this update align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). The accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract is not affected by the amendments in this update. The amendments in this update are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt this new ASU in fiscal 2021.

This ASU expands hedge accounting for both financial and nonfinancial risk components to better align hedge accounting with a company’s risk management strategies, simplify the application of hedge accounting, and increase transparency as to the scope and results of hedging programs. It also amends the presentation and disclosure requirements and changes how companies assess effectiveness. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The update simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions for intra-period tax allocations, recognition of deferred tax liabilities after a foreign subsidiary transitions to or from equity method accounting, and methodology of calculating income taxes in an interim period with year-to-date losses. Additionally, the guidance provides additional clarification on other areas, including step-up of the tax basis of goodwill recorded as part of an acquisition and the treatment of franchise taxes that are partially based on income. This pronouncement is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt this new ASU in fiscal 2022. Companies are required to apply the standard on a prospective basis, except for certain sections of the guidance which shall be applied on a retrospective or modified retrospective basis.

Performance Food Group, Inc. may redeem all or a part of the Notes due 2027 at any time prior to October 15, 2022 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes due 2027 being redeemed plus a make-whole premium and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. In addition, beginning on October 15, 2022, Performance Food Group, Inc. may redeem all or a part of the Notes due 2027 at a redemption price equal to 102.750% of the principal amount redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The redemption price decreases to 101.375% and 100% of the principal amount redeemed on October 15, 2023 and October 15, 2024, respectively. In addition, at any time prior to October 15, 2022, Performance Food Group, Inc. may redeem up to 40% of the Notes due 2027 from the proceeds of certain equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 105.500% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

The indenture governing the Notes due 2027 contains covenants limiting, among other things, PFGC and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to incur or guarantee additional debt or issue disqualified stock or preferred stock; pay dividends and make other distributions on, or redeem or repurchase, capital stock; make certain investments; incur certain liens; enter into transactions with affiliates; consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets; create certain restrictions on the ability of PFGC’s restricted subsidiaries to make dividends or other payments to PFGC; designate restricted subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries; and transfer or sell certain assets. These covenants are subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications. The Notes due 2027 also contain customary events of default, the occurrence of which could result in the principal of and accrued interest on the Notes due 2027 to become or be declared due and payable.

Senior Notes due 2024

On May 17, 2016, Performance Food Group, Inc. issued and sold $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.500% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “Notes”“Notes due 2024”), pursuant to an indenture dated as of May 17, 2016..

The Notes due 2024 are not guaranteed by Performance Food Group Company.


Letters of Credit Facility

The ABL Facility and the indenture governing the Notes contain customary restrictive covenants under which all of the net assets of PFGC and its subsidiaries are restricted from distribution to Performance Food Group Company, except for approximately $302.0 million of restricted payment capacity available under such debt agreements, as of December 30, 2017. Such minimum estimated restricted payment capacity is calculated based on the most restrictive of our debt agreements and may fluctuate from period to period, which fluctuations may be material. Our restricted payment capacity under other debt instruments to which the Company is subject may be materially higher than the foregoing estimate.

Unsecured Subordinated Promissory Note

In connection with an acquisition,On August 9, 2018, Performance Food Group, Inc. issuedand PFGC entered into a $6.0 million interest only, unsecured subordinated promissory noteContinuing Agreement for Letters of Credit (the “Letters of Credit Facility”).

The $6.0 million promissory note was paid off in December 2017.

6.Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates and diesel fuel costs. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and payments related to the Company’s borrowings and diesel fuel purchases.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are both designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged transaction occurs. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings.

Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. Since28, 2019, the Company has $28.3 million letters of credit outstanding under the Letters of Credit Facility.

7.Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a substantial portionlease at inception and recognizes a financing or operating lease liability and right-of-use asset in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for both operating and finance leases are recognized based on present value of its debt in variable-rate instruments, it accomplishes this objective with interest rate swaps. These swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-ratelease payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. All oflease term at commencement date. Since the Company’s interestleases do not provide an implicit rate, swaps are designatedthe Company uses the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date to determine the present value of lease payments. This rate was determined by using the yield curve based on the Company’s credit rating adjusted for the Company’s specific debt profile and qualify as cash flow hedges.

As of December 30, 2017, Performance Food Group, Inc. had eight interest rate swaps with a combined $650 million notional amount. The following table summarizes the outstanding Swap Agreements as of December 30, 2017 (in millions):

Hedges of Forecasted Diesel Fuel Purchases

From time to time, Performance Food Group, Inc. enters into costless collar arrangements to manage its exposure to variability in cash flows expected to be paid for its forecasted purchases of diesel fuel. As of December 30, 2017, Performance Food Group, Inc. was a party to two such arrangements,secured debt risk. Leases with an aggregate 4.5 million gallon original notional amount. The 4.5 million gallon forecasted purchasesinitial term of diesel fuel12 months or less are expected to be made between January 1, 2018 and June 30, 2018.

The fuel collar instruments do not qualify for hedge accounting. Accordingly, the derivative instruments are recorded as an asset or liability on the balance sheet at fair value and any changes in fair value are recorded in the period of change as unrealized gains or losses on fuel hedging instruments and included in Other, net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

7.Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable, outstanding checks in excess of deposits, trade accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair values because of the relatively short maturities of those instruments. The derivative assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet. The fair value of long-term debt, which haslease expenses for these short-term leases are recognized on a carrying value of $1,358.7 million and $1,247.7 million, is $1,378.1 million and $1,258.3 million at December 30, 2017 and July 1, 2017, respectively, and is determined by reviewing current market pricing related to comparable debt issued atstraight-line basis over the time of the balance sheet date, and is considered a Level 2 measurement.

8.Income Taxes

The determination of the Company’s overall effective tax rate requires significant judgment, the use of estimates and the interpretation and application of complex tax laws. The effective tax rate reflects the income earned and taxed in various United States federal and state jurisdictions. Tax law changes, increases and decreases in temporary and permanent differences between book and tax items, tax credits and the Company’s change in income in each jurisdiction all affect the overall effective tax rate. It is the Company’s practice to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.

On December 22, 2017, H.R.1, known as the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act,” (the “Act”) was signed into law. The Act makes broad and complex changes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code including, but not limited to: reducing the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%; creating a new limitation on deductible interest expense; repealing the domestic production activity deduction, providing for bonus depreciation that will allow for full expensing of certain qualified property; and limiting other deductions.

The Company’s net deferred tax liability of $103.0 million as of July 1, 2017 was determined using the federal corporate tax rate of 35% prior to the passage of the Act. The Act reduces the federal corporate tax rate to 21%, effective January 1, 2018. Consequently, we have recorded a $10.2 million decrease in deferred tax assets and a $47.6 million decrease in deferred tax liabilities with a corresponding net benefit to deferred income tax expense of $37.4 million for the three and six months ended December 30, 2017.

The SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 118 (“SAB 118”), which provides guidance on accounting for the tax effects of the Act. SAB 118 provides a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the Act enactment date for companies to complete the accounting under FASB ASC 740 – Income Taxes. In accordance with SAB 118, a company must reflect the income tax effects of those aspects of the Act for which the accounting under ASC 740 is complete. To the extent that a company’s accounting for certain income tax effects of the Act is incomplete but it is able to determine a reasonable estimate, it must record a provisional estimate in the financial statements. If a company cannot determine a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements, it should continue to apply ASC 740 on the basis of the provisions of the tax laws that were in effect immediately before the enactment of the Act.lease term. The Company has not identified any itemsseveral lease agreements that contain lease and non-lease components, such as maintenance, taxes, and insurance, which are accounted for whichseparately. The difference between the income tax effects of the Act have not been substantially completed.

The Company’s effective tax rate was-128.3%operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities primarily relates to adjustments for the three months ended December 30, 2017deferred rent, favorable leases, and 40.1% for the three months ended December 31, 2016. The Company’s effective tax rate was-43.1% for the six months ended December 30, 2017 and 39.2% for the six months ended December 31, 2016. As a result in the reduction in the federal corporate income tax rate to 21% from 35% under the Act, the Company has a blended statutory rate of 28% for the three and six months ended December 30, 2017. For the three and six months ended December 30, 2016, the statutory rate was 35%. Additionally, during the three months ended December 30, 2017, performance vesting criteria for certain stock-based compensation awards was met resulting in a significant permanent tax deduction difference. The impact to the provision for stock-based compensation and the impact of the reduction in tax rate under the Act are summarized as follows:

As of December 30, 2017 and July 1, 2017, the Company had net deferred tax assets of $28.4 million and $43.1 million, respectively, and deferred tax liabilities of $94.4 million and $146.1 million, respectively. The Company believes that it is more likely than not that the remaining deferred tax assets will be realized.

The Company records a liability for Uncertain Tax Positions in accordance with FASB ASC740-10-25,Income Taxes – General - Recognition. As of December 30, 2017 and July 1, 2017, the Company had approximately $1.4 million and $1.3 million of unrecognized tax benefits, respectively. It is reasonably possible that a decrease of approximately $0.1 million in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits may occur within the next twelve months because of statute of limitations expirations, that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate.

9.Commitments and Contingencies

Purchase Obligations

The Company had outstanding contracts and purchase orders for capital projects and services totaling $10.1 million at December 30, 2017. Amounts due under these contracts were not included on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 30, 2017. Subsequent to December 30, 2017, the Company entered into an additional contract totaling $8.8 million.

Guaranteesprepaid rent.

Subsidiaries of the Company have entered into numerous operating and finance leases including leases of buildings,for various warehouses, office facilities, equipment, tractors, and trailers.Our leases have remaining lease terms of 1 year to 20 years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to 10 years, and some of which include options to terminate the leases within 1 year. Certain full-service fleet lease agreements include variable lease payments associated with usage, which are recorded and paid as incurred. When calculating lease liabilities, lease terms will include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option.  

Certain of the leases for tractors, trailers, and other vehicles and equipment provide for residual value guarantees to the lessors. Circumstances that would require the subsidiary to perform under the guarantees include either (1) default on the leases with the leased assets being sold for less than the specified residual values in the lease agreements, or (2) decisions not to purchase the assets at the end of the lease terms combined with the sale of the assets, with sales proceeds less than the residual value of the leased assets specified in the lease agreements. Residual value guarantees under these operating lease agreements typically range between 7% and 20%11% of the value of the leased assets at inception of the lease. These leases have original terms ranging from 45 to 8 years and expiration dates ranging from 20182020 to 2025. As of December 30, 2017,28, 2019, the undiscounted maximum amount of potential future payments for lease residual value guarantees totaled approximately $28.4$23.2 million, which would be mitigated by the fair value of the leased assets at lease expiration.

The assessment as to whether it is probable that subsidiariesfollowing table presents the location of the Company will be required to make payments underright-of-use assets and lease liabilities in the terms of the guarantees is based upon their actual and expected loss experience. Consistent with the requirements of FASB ASC460-10-50,Guarantees-Overall-Disclosure, the Company has recorded $0.2 million of the potential future guarantee payments on itsCompany’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 30, 2017.28, 2019 (in millions), as well as the weighted-average lease term and discount rate for the Company’s leases:

As of December 28, 2019, the Company has additional operating and finance leases that have not yet commenced which total $46.9 million in future minimum lease payments and $1.2 million of residual value guarantees. These leases primarily relate to warehouse leases and will commence in fiscal 2020 with lease terms of 3 to 15 years.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable, outstanding checks in excess of deposits, trade accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair values because of the relatively short maturities of those instruments. The derivative assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet. The fair value of long-term debt, which has a carrying value of $2,188.4 million and $1,202.9 million, is $2,280.0 million and $1,216.3 million at December 28, 2019 and June 29, 2019, respectively, and is determined by reviewing current market pricing related to comparable debt issued at the time of the balance sheet date, and is considered a Level 2 measurement.

9.

Income Taxes

The determination of the Company’s overall effective tax rate requires significant judgment, the use of estimates, and the interpretation and application of complex tax laws. The effective tax rate reflects the income earned and taxed in various United States federal and state jurisdictions. Tax law changes, increases and decreases in temporary and permanent differences between book and tax items, tax credits, and the Company’s change in income in each jurisdiction all affect the overall effective tax rate. It is the Company’s practice to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.

The Company’s effective tax rate was 24.2% for the three months ended December 28, 2019 and 23.4% for the three months ended December 29, 2018. The Company’s effective tax rate was 23.1% for the six months ended December 28, 2019 and 22.1% for the six months ended December 29, 2018. The effective tax rate varied from the 21% statutory rate primarily due to state taxes, federal credits and other permanent items. The excess tax benefit of exercised and vested stock awards is treated as a discrete item.

As of December 28, 2019 and June 29, 2019, the Company had net deferred tax assets of $29.1 million and $29.1 million, respectively, and deferred tax liabilities of $131.1 million and $137.1 million, respectively. As of June 29, 2019, the Company had established a valuation allowance of $0.5 million, net of federal benefit, against deferred tax assets related to certain net operating losses which are not likely to be realized due to limitations on utilization. There was 0 change in the valuation allowance as of December 28, 2019. The Company believes that it is more likely than not that the remaining deferred tax assets will be realized.


The Company records a liability for Uncertain Tax Positions in accordance with FASB ASC 740-10-25, Income Taxes – General – Recognition. As of December 28, 2019 and June 29, 2019, the Company had approximately $1.8 million and $1.9 million of unrecognized tax benefits, respectively. It is reasonably possible that a decrease of approximately $0.6 million in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits may occur within the next twelve months primarily due to statute of limitations expirations, that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate.

10.

Commitments and Contingencies

Purchase Obligations

The Company had outstanding contracts and purchase orders for capital projects and services totaling $37.4 million at December 28, 2019. Amounts due under these contracts were not included on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 28, 2019.

Guarantees

The Company from time to time enters into certain types of contracts that contingently require it to indemnify various parties against claims from third parties. These contracts primarily relate to: (i) certain real estate leases under which subsidiaries of the Company may be required to indemnify property owners for environmental and other liabilities and other claims arising from their use of the applicable premises; (ii) certain agreements with the Company’s officers, directors, and employees under which the Companymay be required to indemnify such persons for liabilities arising out of their employment relationship; and (iii) customer agreements under which the Company may be required to indemnify customers for certain claims brought against them with respect to the supplied products.

Generally, a maximum obligation under these contracts is not explicitly stated. Because the obligated amounts associated with these types of agreements are not explicitly stated, the overall maximum amount of the obligation cannot be reasonably estimated. Historically, the Company has not been required to make payments under these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these obligations in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Reinhart Transaction Commitments

As of December 28, 2019, the Company had several outstanding commitments due upon the closing of the acquisition of Reinhart. These commitments, totaling $63.8 million, included $26.0 million of fees related to the Notes due 2027, $4.9 million of fees related to expected additional borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement, $23.9 million of underwriting and issuance costs for the offering of shares of the Company’s stock, and $9.0 million related to advisory fees for the acquisition. Upon the closing of the Reinhart acquisition on December 30, 2019, these commitments were paid.

Litigation

The Company is engaged in various legal proceedings that have arisen but have not been fully adjudicated. The likelihood of loss arising from these legal proceedings, based on definitions within contingency accounting literature, ranges from remote to reasonably possible to probable. When losses are probable and reasonably estimable, they have been accrued. Based on estimates of the range of potential losses associated with these matters, management does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect upon the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company. However, the final results of legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty and, if the Company failed to prevail in one or more of these legal matters, and the associated realized losses were to exceed the Company’s current estimates of the range of potential losses, the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations could be materially adversely affected in future periods.

U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission Lawsuit. In March 2009, the Baltimore Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or the “EEOC,”(“EEOC”) Field Office served usthe Company with company-wide (excluding, however, our Vistar and Roma Foodservice operations) subpoenas relating to alleged violations of the Equal Pay Act and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act (“Title VII”), seeking certain information from January 1, 2004 to a specified date in the first fiscal quarter of 2009. In August 2009, the EEOC moved to enforce the subpoenas in federal court in Maryland, and wethe Company opposed the motion. In February 2010, the court ruled that the subpoena related to the Equal Pay Act investigation was enforceable company-wide but on a narrower scope of data than the original subpoena sought (the court ruled that the subpoena was applicable to the transportation, logistics, and warehouse functions of ourthe Company’s broadline distribution centers only and not to ourthe Company’s PFG Customized distribution centers). WeThe Company cooperated with the EEOC on the production of information. In September 2011, the EEOC notified usthe Company that the EEOC was terminating the investigation into alleged violations of the Equal Pay Act. In determinations issued in September 2012 by the EEOC with respect to the charges on which the EEOC had based its company-wide investigation, the EEOC concluded that wethe Company engaged in a pattern of denying hiring and promotion to a class of female applicants and employees into certain positions within the transportation, logistics, and warehouse functions within ourthe Company’s broadline division in violation of Title VII. In June 2013, the EEOC filed suit in federal court in Baltimore against us.the Company. The litigation concerns two issues: (1) whether wethe Company unlawfully engaged in


an ongoing pattern and practice of failing to hire female applicants into operations positions; and (2) whether wethe Company unlawfully failed to promote one of the three individuals who filed charges with the EEOC because of her gender. The EEOC seeks the following relief in the lawsuit: (1) to permanently enjoin usthe Company from denying employment to female applicants because of their sex and denying promotions to female employees because of their sex; (2) a court order mandating that wethe Company institute and carry out policies, procedures, practices and programs which provide equal employment opportunities for females; (3) back pay with prejudgment interest and compensatory damages for a former female employee and an alleged class of aggrieved female applicants; (4) punitive damages; and (5) costs. The court bifurcated the litigation into two phases. In the first phase, the jury will decide whether wethe Company engaged in a gender-based pattern and practice of discrimination and the individual claims of one former employee. If the EEOC prevails on all counts in the first phase, no monetary relief would be awarded, except possibly for the single individual’s claims, which would be immaterial. The remaining individual claims would then be tried in the second phase. At this stage in the proceedings, the Company cannot estimate either the number of individual trials that could occur in the second phase of the litigation or the value of those claims. For these reasons, we arethe Company is unable to estimate any potential loss or range of loss in the event of an adverse finding in the first and second phases of the litigation.

In May 2018, the EEOC filed motions for sanctions against the Company alleging that we failed to preserve certain paper employment applications and e-mails during 2004 – 2009. In the sanctions motions, the EEOC sought a range of remedies, including but not limited to, a default judgment against the Company, or alternatively, an order barring the Company from filing for summary judgment on the EEOC’s pattern and practice claims. The court denied the EEOC’s motions in June 2019, but reserved ruling on whether the unavailability of certain documents will prejudice the EEOC’s ability to present expert testimony at the trial.

The parties have filed cross motions for summary judgment, the briefing period has concluded, and the motions are engaged in discovery. We intendnow before the court. There is no specific deadline for the court to issue its ruling on the motions. The Company will continue to vigorously defend ourselves.

Wilder, et al. v. Roma Food Enterprises, Inc., et al. The court granted final approval of the settlement stipulation on November 6, 2017. The Company funded the $1.9 million settlement on January 10, 2018, thereby ending the litigation.itself.

Tax Liabilities

The Company is subject to customary audits by authorities in the jurisdictions where it conducts business in the United States, which may result in assessments of additional taxes.

Related-Party Transactions

Transaction and Advisory Fee Agreement

The Company was a party to an advisory fee agreement pursuant to which affiliates of The Blackstone Group L.P. and Wellspring provided management certain strategic and structuring advice and certain monitoring, advising, and consulting services to the Company. The advisory fee agreement provided for the payment by the Company of an annual advisory fee and the reimbursement of out of pocket expenses. In fiscal 2018 the Company will pay a total of $3.0 million related to this agreement, of which $1.5 million was paid in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and during the six months ended December 30, 2017 and $1.5 million will be paid in the third quarter of fiscal 2018. The payments made under this agreement totaled $5.5 million during the six months ended December 31, 2016.

Under its terms, this agreement terminated on October 6, 2017.

Other

The Company participates in and has an equity method investment in a purchasing alliance that was formed to obtain better pricing, to expand product options, to reduce internal costs, and to achieve greater inventory turnover. The Company’s investment in the purchasing alliance was $4.7$5.1 million as of December 30, 201728, 2019 and $4.6 million as of July 1, 2017. DuringJune 29, 2019. For the three-month periods ended December 30, 201728, 2019 and December 31, 2016,29, 2018, the Company recorded purchases of $177.5$244.2 million and $176.6$206.2 million, respectively, through the purchasing alliance. During thesix-month periods ended December 30, 201728, 2019 and December 31, 2016,29, 2018, the Company recorded purchases of $390.4$498.4 million and $387.0$433.1 million, respectively, through the purchasing alliance.

Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPSearnings per common share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. In computing diluted EPS,earnings per common share, the average closing stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased with the assumed proceeds from the exercise of stock options under the treasury stock method. The dilutive effect of potential common shares includes the impact of the equity forward the Company entered into in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 since the average closing price of the Company’s common stock for the period was higher than the applicable forward sale price. Potential common shares of 0.70.1 million and 0.70.1 million for the three and six months ended December 30, 2017,28, 2019, respectively, and 0.5 million and 0.6 million for the three and six months ended December 29, 2018, respectively, were not included in computing diluted earnings per share because the effect would have been antidilutive. Potential common shares of 1.2 million and 1.0 million for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, respectively, were not included in computing diluted earnings per share because the effect would have been antidilutive.

Management evaluates the performance of each operating segment based on various operating and financial metrics, including total sales and EBITDA. For PFG Customized, EBITDA includes certain allocated corporate charges that are included in operating expenses. The allocated corporate charges are determined based on a percentage of total sales. This percentage is reviewed on a periodic basis to ensure that the segment is allocated a reasonable rate of corporate expenses based on their use of corporate services.

Corporate & All Other is comprised of corporate overhead and certain operations that are not considered separate reportable segments based on their size. This includes the operations of the Company’s internal logistics unit responsible for managing and allocating inbound logistics revenue and expense, as well as the operations of certain recent acquisitions.expense.

The Performance Food Group Company 2007 Management Option Plan (the”2007 Option Plan”) allowed for the granting of awards to employees, officers, directors, consultants, and advisors of the Company or its affiliates. The terms and conditions of awards granted under the 2007 Option Plan were determined by the Board of Directors.

The Tranche II and Tranche III options and restricted stock granted under the 2007 Option Plan are subject to both time and performance vesting, including performance criteria based on the internal rate of return and sponsor cash inflows as outlined in the 2007 Option Plan.

On December 7, 2017, the Company determined that the performance criteria for the Tranche II and III awards had been met and 2.1 million shares of restricted stock and 1.4 million options vested. In the second quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company recognized approximately $6.3 million of accelerated compensation expense in connection with the vesting of the Tranche II and III awards. Based on the performance achieved, total compensation expense for the Tranche II and III awards was $24.9 million. The excess tax benefit recognized in the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended December 30, 2017 was $15.4 million.

In addition to historical consolidated financial information, this discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs and involve numerous risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to those described in the “Item 1A. Risk Factors” section of the Form10-K and in the “Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors” section of our quarterly report on Form10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2017. 10-K. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. You should carefully read “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in this Form10-Q.

Our Company

WeFollowing the completion of the Reinhart acquisition, we market and distribute approximately 150,000over 200,000 food and food-relatedrelated products to customers across the United States from approximately 76over 100 distribution facilities to over 150,000200,000 customer locations in the “food-away-from-home” industry. We offer our customers a broad assortment of products including our proprietary-branded products, nationally-branded products, and products bearing our customers’ brands. Our product assortment ranges from“center-of-the-plate” “center-of-the-plate” items (such as beef, pork, poultry, and seafood), frozen foods, and groceries to candy, snacks, beverages, cigarettes, and beverages.other tobacco products. We also sell disposables, cleaning and kitchen supplies, and related products used by our customers. In addition to the products we offer to our customers, we provide value-added services by allowing our customers to benefit from our industry knowledge, scale, and expertise in the areas of product selection and procurement, menu development, and operational strategy.

We have threeThe Company has two reportable segments: Performance Foodservice PFG Customized, and Vistar. Our Performance Foodservice segment distributes a broad line of national brands, customer brands, and our proprietary-branded food and food-related products, or “Performance Brands.” Performance Foodservice sells to independent or “Street,” and multi-unit or “Chain,”“Chain” restaurants and other institutions such as schools, healthcare facilities, and business and industry locations. Our PFG Customized segment has provided longstanding service toChain customers are multi-unit restaurants with five or more locations and include some of the most recognizable family and casual dining restaurant chains and recently expanded service into fast casual restaurant chains. Our Vistar segment specializes in distributing candy, snacks, beverages, cigarettes, other tobacco products and other items nationally to the vending distributors, office coffee service theater, retail, hospitality,distributors, big box retailers, theaters, convenience stores, and other channels. We believe that there are substantial synergies across our segments. Cross-segment synergies include procurement, operational best practices such as the use of new productivity technologies, and supply chain and network optimization, as well as shared corporate functions such as accounting, treasury, tax, legal, information systems, and human resources.

Recent Trends and Initiatives

Our case volume has grown in each quarter over the comparable prior fiscal year quarter, starting in the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and continuing through the most recent quarter. We believe that we gained industry share during the second quarter of fiscal 2018 given that we have grown our sales more rapidly than the industry growth rate forecasted by Technomic, a research and consulting firm serving the food and food related industry. Our Netnet income increased 240.6%decreased 4.4% from the second quarter of fiscal 20172019 to the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and2020 as a result of an increase in interest expense due to the additional debt issued to help finance the Reinhart acquisition. Net income increased 186.6% from8.4% for the first six months of fiscal 20172020 compared to the first six months of fiscal 2018.2019. Adjusted EBITDA increased 12.2%22.2% from the second quarter of fiscal 20172019 to the second quarter of fiscal 20182020 and increased 15.4% from27.4% for the first six months of fiscal 20172020 compared to the first six months of fiscal 2018,2019, driven primarily by case growth and improved profit per case. Case volume grew 4.2%6.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 20182020 and 3.9%8.7% in the first six months of fiscal 20182020 compared to the prior year periods. Gross marginprofit dollars rose 9.7%15.7% and 9.1%17.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 20182020 and the first six months of fiscal 2018,2020, respectively, versus the prior year periods, which was faster than case growth, primarily as a result of shifting our channel mix toward higher gross margin customers and shifting our product mix toward sales of Performance Brands. Our operating expenses in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020 compared to the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2017, increased 11.3%2019 rose 16.5% and 8.2%17.9%, respectively, as a result of increases in variable operational and selling expenses associated with the increase in case volume and as well as due to severalone-time expenses including accelerated stock-based compensation expense.a result of recent acquisitions.

Key Factors Affecting Our Business

We believe that our performance is principally affected by the following key factors:

 

Changing demographic and macroeconomic trends.The share of consumer spending captured by thefood-away-from-home industry increased steadily for several decades and paused during the recession that began in 2008. Following the recession, the share has again increased as a result of increasing employment, rising disposable income, increases in the number of restaurants, and favorable demographic trends, such as smaller household sizes, an increasing number of dual income households, and an aging population base that spends more per capita at foodservice establishments. The foodservice distribution industry is also sensitive to national and regional economic conditions, such as changes in consumer spending, changes in consumer confidence, and changes in the prices of certain goods.


 

Food distribution market structure.We are the third largest foodservice distributer by revenue in the United States behind Sysco and US Foods, which are both national broadline distributors. The balance of thefood distribution market consists of a wide spectrum of companies ranging from businesses selling a single category of product (e.g., produce) to large national and regional broadline distributors with many distribution centers and thousands of products across all categories. We believe our scale enables us to invest in our Performance Brands, to benefit from economies of scale in purchasing and procurement, and to drive supply chain efficiencies that enhance our customers’ satisfaction and profitability. We believe that the relative growth of larger foodservice distributors will continue to outpace that of smaller, independent players in our industry.

 

Our ability to successfully execute our segment strategies and implement our initiatives.Our performance will continue to depend on our ability to successfully execute our segment strategies and to implement our current and future initiatives. The key strategies include focusing on independent sales and Performance Brands, pursuing new customers for all threeboth of our reportable segments, expansion of geographies, utilizing our infrastructure to gain further operating and purchasing efficiencies, and making strategic acquisitions.

How We Assess the Performance of Our Business

In assessing the performance of our business, we consider a variety of performance and financial measures. The key measures used by our management are discussed below. The percentages on the results presented below are calculated based on rounded numbers.

Net Sales

Net sales is equal to gross sales, plus excise taxes, minus sales returns; sales incentives that we offer to our customers, such as rebates and discounts that are offsets to gross sales; and certain other adjustments. Our net sales are driven by changes in case volumes, product inflation that is reflected in the pricing of our products, and mix of products sold.

Gross Profit

Gross profit is equal to our net sales minus our cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold primarily includes inventory costs (net of supplier consideration) and inbound freight. Cost of goods sold generally changes as we incur higher or lower costs from our suppliers and as our customer and product mix changes.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

Management measures operating performance based on our EBITDA, defined as net income before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is not defined under U.S. GAAP and is not a measure of operating income, operating performance, or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and is subject to important limitations. Our definition of EBITDA may not be the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies.

We believe that the presentation of EBITDA enhances an investor’s understanding of our performance. We use this measure to evaluate the performance of our segments and for business planning purposes. We present EBITDA in order to provide supplemental information that we consider relevant for the readers of our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report, and such information is not meant to replace or supersede U.S. GAAP measures.

In addition, our management uses Adjusted EBITDA, defined as net income before interest expense, interest income, income and franchise taxes, and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted to exclude certain items that we do not consider part of our core operating results. Such adjustments include certain unusual,non-cash,non-recurring, cost reduction, and other adjustment items permitted in calculating covenant compliance under our credit agreement and indentureindentures (other than certain pro forma adjustments permitted under our credit agreement and indentureindentures governing the Notes due 2024 and Notes due 2027 relating to the Adjusted EBITDA contribution of acquired entities or businesses prior to the acquisition date). Under our credit agreement and indenture,indentures, our ability to engage in certain activities such as incurring certain additional indebtedness, making certain investments, and making restricted payments is tied to ratios based on Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement and indenture)indentures). Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA is not defined under U.S. GAAP and is subject to important limitations. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties, including our lenders under the ABL Facility (as defined below under “-Liquidity and Capital Resources”)credit agreement and holders of our Notes (as defined below under “-Liquiditydue 2024 and Capital Resources”),Notes due 2027, in their evaluation of the operating performance of companies in industries similar to ours. In addition, targets based on Adjusted EBITDA are among the measures we use to evaluate our management’s performance for purposes of determining their compensation under our incentive plans.


EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have important limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. For example, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA:

exclude certain tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us;

do not reflect any cash capital expenditure requirements for the assets being depreciated and amortized that may have to be replaced in the future;

do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; and

do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements, necessary to service our debt.

In calculating Adjusted EBITDA, we add back certainnon-cash,non-recurring, and other adjustment items as permitted or required by our credit agreement and indenture.indentures. Adjusted EBITDA among other things:

does not include

does not include non-cash stock-based employee compensation expense and other non-cash stock-based employee compensation expense and certain othernon-cash charges; and

does not include cash andnon-cash restructuring, severance, and relocation costs incurred to realize future cost savings and enhance our operations; and

does not reflect advisory fees paid.

does not include acquisition, restructuring, and other costs incurred to realize future cost savings and enhance our operations.

We have included the calculations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented.

Consolidated Results of Operations

Three and six months ended December 30, 201728, 2019 compared to the three and six months ended December 31, 201629, 2018

Net Sales

Net sales growth is a function of case growth, pricing (which is primarily based on product inflation/deflation), and a changing mix of customers, channels, and product categories sold. Net sales increased $259.3$1,452.9 million, or 6.4%31.5%, for the second quarter of fiscal 20182020 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 20172019 and increased $578.1$3,156.2 million, or 7.1%34.5%, for the first six months of fiscal 2018 2020


compared to the first six months of fiscal 2017.2019. The increase in net sales was primarily attributable to recent acquisitions, sales growth in Vistar, particularly in the theater, hospitality, retail,corrections, vending, and vendingoffice coffee service channels, and case growth in Performance Foodservice, particularly in the independent channel,channel. The acquisition of Eby-Brown in the fourth quarter of 2019 contributed $1,260.8 million and recent acquisitions. Net$2,634.8 million of net sales growth was driven by case volume growth of 4.2% and 3.9% in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2017,2020, respectively, as well as an increaseincluding $267.3 million and $559.0 million related to excise taxes for the respective periods. Case volume increased 6.7% and 8.7% in selling price per case in both the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 20182020, respectively, compared to the prior year periods.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased $50.4$96.6 million, or 9.7%15.7%, for the second quarter of fiscal 20182020 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 20172019 and increased $93.8$214.4 million, or 9.1%17.7%, for the first six months of fiscal 20182020 compared to the first six months of fiscal 2017. The increase in gross profit was primarily the result of growth in cases.2019. Within Performance Foodservice, case growth to independent customers positively affected gross profit per case. Independent customers typically receive more services from us, cost more to serve, and pay a higher gross profit per case than other customers. Also, in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2018, Performance2020, Foodservice grew our Performance Brand sales, which have higher gross profit per case compared to the other brands we sell. See “—Segment Results—Performance Foodservice” below for additional discussion.

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 11.7% for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to 13.3% for the second quarter of fiscal 2019, and 11.6% for the first six months of fiscal 2020 compared to 13.2% for the first six months of fiscal 2019; the decrease reflecting Eby-Brown’s lower margins primarily due to tobacco sales.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses increased $52.6$89.1 million, or 11.3%16.5%, for the second quarter of fiscal 20182020 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 20172019 and increased $77.1$194.0 million, or 8.2%17.9%, for the first six months of fiscal 20182020 compared to the first six months of fiscal 2017.2019. The increase in operating expenses for both the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2020 was primarily driven by recent acquisitions and the increase in case volume and the resulting impact on variable operational and selling expenses, as well as cost of living and other increases in compensation and benefits.expenses. Operating expenses also increased inby $6.5 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2018 due to a $7.2and $12.9 million increase in stock-based compensation as a result of the accelerated vesting of performance-based awards under the 2007 Option Plan andnon-recurring development costs related to certain productivity initiatives the Company no longer plans to pursue. Forfor the first six months of fiscal 2018, operating expenses also increased2020 as a result of increases in stock-based compensation expense of $6.4 million and fuel expense of $5.6 million, partially offset by a decrease of $2.0 million in professional legal and consulting fees.fees related to acquisitions.

Depreciation and amortization of intangible assets increased from $30.4$37.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 20172019 to $32.3$43.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2018.2020. Depreciation and amortization of intangible assets increased from $59.9$72.6 million for the first six months of fiscal 20172019 to $63.7$86.5 million forin the first six months of fiscal 2018.2020. Depreciation of fixed assets increased as a result of larger capital outlays to support our growth, as well as recent acquisitions. This increase was partially offset by decreases in amortization of intangible assets, since certain intangibles are now fully amortized compared to the prior year.growth.

Net Income

Net income increased $55.1decreased $1.9 million, or 240.6%4.4%, for the second quarter of fiscal 20182020 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2017 as a result of the $59.2 million2019. The decrease in net income tax expense, partially offset by the $2.2 million decrease in operating profit,was primarily attributable to a $1.5$10.4 million increase in interest expense, andpartially offset by a $0.4$7.5 million decrease in other income.

The decrease in operating profit was a result of the increase in operating expenses discussed above. The increase in interest expense was primarily the result of higher average borrowings and an increase in the average interest rate during the second quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2017. The $0.4 million decrease in other income related primarily to derivative activity.

The decrease in income tax expense was primarily a result of the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) and the excess tax benefit associated with the vesting of stock-based compensation awards. Our effective tax rate in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 was-128.3% compared to 40.1% in the second quarter of fiscal 2017.

The Act was signed into law on December 22, 2017. Among its numerous changes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, the Act reduces the U.S. federal corporate rate from 35% to 21%, which will result in a blended U.S. Federal statutory rate of approximately 28% for the Company. As a result of the Act, the Company revalued its net deferred tax liability, resulting in a decrease to the net deferred tax liability of $37.4 million with a corresponding net benefit to income tax expense of $37.4 million for the three and six months ended December 30, 2017. The Company estimates that its effective tax rate for fiscal 2018 will be approximately 33%.

Additionally, in the second quarter of fiscal 2018, performance vesting criteria for certain stock-based compensation awards was met resulting in an excess tax benefit of $15.4 million for the three and six months ended December 30, 2017.

The increase in net income was primarily attributable to a result of the $52.9 million decrease in income tax expense and the $16.7$20.4 million increase in operating profit, partially offset by a $3.2$12.1 million increase in interest expense and a $0.9 decrease$3.0 million increase in other income.income tax expense.

The increase in operating profit was a result of the increase in gross profit discussed above.above, partially offset by the increase in operating expenses.

Segment Results

We have threetwo reportable segments as described above—Performanceabove – Foodservice PFG Customized, and Vistar. Management evaluates the performance of these segments based onvarious operating and financial metrics, including their respective sales growth and EBITDA. For PFG Customized, EBITDA includes certain allocated corporate expenses that are included in operating expenses. The allocated corporate expenses are determined based on a percentage of total sales. This percentage is reviewed on a periodic basis to ensure that the allocation reflects a reasonable rate of corporate expenses based on their use of corporate services.

Corporate & All Other is comprised of unallocated corporate overhead and certain operations that are not considered separate reportable segments based on their size. This includes the operations of our internal logistics unit responsible for managing and allocating inbound logistics revenue and expense, as well as the operations of recent acquisitions.expense.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have historically financed our operations and growth primarily with cash flows from operations, borrowings under our credit facility, operating and capital leases, and normal trade credit terms. We have typically funded our acquisitions with additional borrowings under our credit facility. Our working capital and borrowing levels are subject to seasonal fluctuations, typically with the lowest borrowing levels in the third and fourth fiscal quarters and the highest borrowing levels occurring in the first and second fiscal quarters. We believe that our cash flows from operations and available borrowing capacity will be sufficient both to meet our anticipated cash requirements over at least the next twelve12 months and to maintain sufficient liquidity for normal operating purposes.

At December 30, 2017, our cash balance totaled $23.0 million, including restricted cash of $12.9 million, as compared to a cash balance totaling $21.0 million, including restricted cash of $12.9 million, at July 1, 2017. This increase in cash during the first six months of fiscal 2018 was attributable to net cash provided by financing activities of $70.8 million and net cash provided by operating activities of $32.6 million, partially offset by net cash used in investing activities of $101.4 million. We borrow under our ABL Facilitycredit facility or pay it down regularly based on our cash flows from operating and investing activities. Our practice is to minimize interest expense while maintaining reasonable liquidity.

As market conditions warrant, we and our stockholders may from time to time depending upon market conditions, seek to repurchase our securities or loans in privately negotiated or open market transactions, by tender offer or otherwise. Any such repurchases may be funded by incurring new debt, including additional borrowings under our ABL Facility.credit facility. In addition, depending on conditions in the credit and capital markets and other factors, we will, from time to time, consider other financing transactions, the proceeds of which could be used to refinance our indebtedness, make investments or acquisitions or for other purposes. Any new debt may be secured debt.

At December 28, 2019, our cash balance totaled $1,101.9 million, including restricted cash of $1,089.2 million, as compared to a cash balance totaling $25.4 million, including restricted cash of $10.7 million, at June 29, 2019. This increase in cash during the first six months of fiscal 2020 was attributable to net cash provided by operating activities of $157.8 million and net cash provided by financing activities of $967.2 million, partially offset by net cash used in investing activities of $48.5 million.

On September 27, 2019, the Escrow Issuer (which merged with and into Performance Food Group, Inc. upon the completion of the Reinhart acquisition) issued and sold $1,060.0 million aggregate principal amount of its Notes due 2027. As of December 28, 2019, the gross proceeds from the issuance of the Notes due 2027 were held in escrow and are classified as restricted cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required or necessary disclosures. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. In accordance with Rule13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form10-Q, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form10-Q, were effective to accomplish their objectives at a reasonable assurance level.
