NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(Dollars in thousands, except where noted and per share data)

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Description of Business

As used herein, unless the context otherwise indicates, the terms “we”, “us”, “our” or “Company” collectively refer to John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiary, JBSS Ventures, LLC. Our fiscal year ends on the final Thursday of June each year, and typically consists offifty-two weeks (four thirteen-week quarters). Additional information on the comparability of the periods presented is as follows:

References herein to fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019 are to the fiscal year ending June 25, 2020 and the fiscal year ended June 27, 2019, respectively.

References herein to the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019 are to the quarters ended ~~September~~December 26, 2019 and ~~September~~December 27, 2018, respectively.

References herein to the first half or firsttwenty-six weeks of fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019 are to thetwenty-six weeks ended December 26, 2019 and December 27, 2018, respectively.

We are one of the leading processors and distributors of peanuts, pecans, cashews, walnuts, almonds, and other nuts in the United States. These nuts are sold under a variety of private brands and under theFisher, Orchard Valley Harvest,Squirrel Brand, Southern Style Nutsand Sunshine Countrybrand names. We also market and distribute, and in most cases, manufacture or process, a diverse product line of food and snack products, including peanut butter, almond butter, cashew butter, candy and confections, snacks and trail mixes, snack bites, sunflower kernels, dried fruit, corn snacks, chickpea snacks, sesame sticks and other sesame snack products under private brands and brand names. Our products are sold through three primary distribution channels to significant buyers of nuts, including food retailers in the consumer channel, commercial ingredient users and contract packaging customers.

The accompanying unaudited financial statements fairly present the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity and consolidated statements of cash flows, and reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments which are necessary for the fair statement of the results of the interim periods. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.

The interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. The balance sheet data as of June 27, 2019 was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Accordingly, these unaudited financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2019 Annual Report on Form10-K for the fiscal year ended June 27, 2019.

Note 2 – Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. For each customer contract, a five-step process is followed in which we identify the contract, identify performance obligations, determine the transaction price, allocate the contract transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognize the revenue when (or as) the performance obligation is transferred to the customer.

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. The Company’s performance obligations are primarily for the delivery of raw and processed recipe and snack nuts, nut butters and trail mixes.

Our customer contracts do not include more than one performance obligation. If a contract were to contain more than one performance obligation, we are required to allocate the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. The standalone selling price for each distinct good is generally determined by directly observable data.

Revenue recognition is generally completed at a point in time when product control is transferred to the customer. For approximately 99% of our revenues, control transfers to the customer when the product is shipped or delivered to the customer based upon applicable shipping terms, as the customer can then direct the use and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the asset at that point in time. Therefore, for 99% of our revenues, the timing of revenue recognition requires little judgment.

Variable Consideration

Some of our products are sold through specific incentive programs consisting of promotional allowances, volume and customer rebates,in-store display incentives and marketing allowances, among others, to consumer and some commercial ingredient customers. The ultimate cost of these programs is dependent on certain factors such as actual purchase volumes or customer activities and is dependent on significant management estimate and judgment. The Company accounts for these programs as variable consideration and recognizes a reduction in revenue (and a corresponding reduction in the transaction price) in the same period as the underlying program based upon the terms of the specific arrangements.

Trade promotions, consisting primarily of customer pricing allowances, merchandising funds and consumer coupons, are also offered through various programs to customers and consumers. A provision for estimated trade promotions is recorded as a reduction of revenue (and a reduction in the transaction price) in the same period when the sale is recognized. Revenues are also recorded net of expected customer deductions which are provided for based upon past experiences. Evaluating these estimates requires management judgment.

We generally use the most likely amount method to determine the variable consideration. We believe there will not be significant changes to our estimates of variable consideration when any related uncertainties are resolved with our customers. The Company reviews and updates its estimates and related accruals of variable consideration and trade promotions at least quarterly based on the terms of the agreements and historical experience. Any uncertainties in the ultimate resolution of variable consideration due to factors outside of the Company’s influence are typically resolved within a short timeframe, therefore, no additional constraint on the variable consideration is required.

Contract Balances

Contract assets or liabilities result from transactions with revenue recorded over time. If the measure of remaining rights exceeds the measure of the remaining performance obligations the Company records a contract asset. Conversely, if the measure of the remaining performance obligations exceeds the measure of the remaining rights, the Company records a contract liability. There was no contract asset balance at ~~September~~December 26, 2019. Contract asset balances at June 27, 2019 and ~~September~~December 27, 2018 were $117 and ~~$196,~~$65, respectively, and are recorded in the caption “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company generally does not have material deferred revenue or contract liability balances arising from transactions with customers.

Note 3—3 – Leases

On June 28, 2019 we adopted ASUNo. 2016-02,Leases (“Topic 842”)using the alternative transition method under ASUNo. 2018-11, which ~~permits~~permitted application of the new guidance at the beginning of the period of adoption, with comparative periods continuing to be reported under the previous lease accounting guidance in Topic 840. In addition, we elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, allowed us to carry forward the historical lease classification. We did not elect the practical expedients regarding hindsight or land easements. See Note 1415 – “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” for additional information.

Upon adoption of the new standard, we recognized operating leaseright-of-use assets and liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheet of $5,361 and $5,320 respectively. We utilized a portfolio approach to establish discount rates for leases that are similar. Discount rates ranging from 4.2% to 5.8% were used when determining the present value of future lease payments. All of our ~~existing~~ lessee arrangements ~~currently~~that were classified as operating leases ~~will~~under Topic 840 continue to be classified as operating leases since the adoption of Topic 842, and the pattern of lease expense recognition ~~will be~~is unchanged. The adoption of Topic 842 did not materially impact our consolidated net earnings and had no impact on cash flows.

Description of Leases

We lease equipment used in the transportation of goods in our warehouses, as well as a limited number of automobiles and a small warehouse near our Bainbridge, Georgia facility. Our leases generally do not containnon-lease components and do not contain any explicit guarantees of residual value. Our leases for warehouse transportation equipment generally require the equipment to be returned to the lessor in good working order.

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception and analyze the lease to determine if it is operating or finance. Operating leaseright-of-use assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating leaseright-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental collateralized borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Implicit rates are used when readily determinable. None of our leases currently contain options to extend the term. In the event of an option to extend the term of a lease, the lease term used in measuring the liability would include options to extend or terminate the lease if it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. Our leases have remaining terms of up to 65.4 years.

~~ASUNo. 2016-02~~Topic 842 allows for the election as an accounting policy to not apply lease recognition requirements to short term leases, defined as leases with an initial term of 12 months or less. We have elected to use this policy, and as such, leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. We have also made the policy election to not separate lease andnon-lease components for all leases.

Lessor Accounting

We lease office space in our four-story office building located in Elgin, Illinois. As a lessor, we retain substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership of the investment property and under Topic 842 we continue to account for all of our leases as operating leases. Lease agreements may include options to renew. We accrue fixed lease income on astraight-line basis over the terms of the leases. There is generally noan immaterial amount of variable lease consideration and an immaterial amount ofnon-lease components such as recurring utility and storage fees. Leases between related parties are immaterial.

Leasing revenue is as follows:

Note 11 – Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

We are currently a party to various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. While management presently believes that the ultimate outcomes of these proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not materially affect our Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows, legal proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable outcomes could occur. Unfavorable outcomes could include substantial monetary damages in excess of any ~~appropriate~~ accruals ~~which~~that management has established. Were such unfavorable final outcomes to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Note 12 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

~~The~~Authoritative guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels:


Level 1	–	Quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2	–	Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets. For example, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets.

Level 3	–	Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data available.

The carrying values of cash, trade accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values at each balance sheet date because of the short-term maturities and nature of these balances.

The carrying value of our revolving credit facility borrowings approximates fair value at each balance sheet date because interest rates on this instrument approximate current market rates (Level 2 criteria), ~~and because of~~ the short-term maturity and nature of this balance. In addition, there has been no significant change in our inherent credit risk.

The following table summarizes the carrying value and fair value estimate of our current and long-term debt, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs:


	September 26, 2019		June 27, 2019		September 27, 2018		December 26, 2019		June 27, 2019		December 27, 2018
Carrying value of long-term debt:	$	25,606	$	27,798	$	32,860	$	23,767	$	27,798	$	31,061
Fair value of long-term debt:		25,710		27,720		31,600		24,164		27,720		30,176

The estimated fair value of our long-term debt was determined using a market approach based upon Level 2 observable inputs, which estimates fair value based on interest rates currently offered on loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality or broker quotes. In addition, there have been no significant changes in the underlying assets securing our long-term debt.

Note 13 – Related Party Transaction

In connection with the ~~acquisition of the Squirrel Brand business~~Acquisition in the second quarter of fiscal 2018, we incurred $11,500 of unsecured debt (the “Promissory Note”) to the principal owner and seller of the Squirrel Brand business, who was subsequently appointed as an executive officer of the Company and iswas considered a related party. ~~The interest rate~~Late in the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the employment of this executive officer with the Company ceased. He is no longer considered a related party, and therefore the outstanding balance on the Promissory Note is ~~5.5% per annum and the outstanding balance at September~~not reflected as related party debt on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 26, ~~2019 was $4,472.~~2019. Interest paid on the Promissory Note for the quarter andtwenty-six weeks ended ~~September~~December 26, 2019 while the executive officer was ~~$70.~~still a related party was $57 and $127, respectively, and is reflected as related party interest on our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

Note 14 – Garysburg, North Carolina Facility

After evaluating our options with regard to our peanut production operations, the Company is considering strategic alternatives for this facility and currently plans to permanently cease all operations at the Garysburg facility once we have finished shelling the current crop of peanuts at this facility, which is estimated to take approximately sixteen months. We have ceased roasting operations in the current second quarter, which resulted in a partial reduction in the workforce at this facility, and recognized an immaterial amount of separation costs in the second quarter of fiscal 2020.

We have adequate property damage and business interruption insurance, subject to applicable deductibles. To date, approximately $1,500 inclean-up costs and damage to capital assets has been incurred. Insurance claims have been filed under our property damage and business interruption policies, and an advance payment of $1,500 was received from the insurance carrier in our current second quarter. Insurance proceeds received for damage to capital equipment were recorded as investing activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Note 1415 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The following recent accounting pronouncements have been adopted in the current fiscal year:

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASUNo. 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)”. The primary goal of this Update is to require the lessee to recognize all lease commitments, both operating and finance, by initially recording a lease asset and liability on the balance sheet at the lease commencement date. Additionally, enhanced qualitative and quantitative disclosures ~~will be~~are required. ASUNo. 2016-02 is effective for public business entities for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. This new guidance isbecame effective for the Company beginning in fiscal year 2020. Under ASUNo. 2016-02 the guidance was to be adopted using a modified retrospective approach, with elective reliefs, with application of the new guidance for all periods presented. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASUNo. 2018-11 “Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements” which provides for another transition method by allowing entities to initially apply the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The amendments in this Update also provide lessors with a practical expedient, by class of underlying asset, to not separatenon-lease components from the associated lease component, similar to the expedient provided for lessees. In July 2018, the FASB also issued ASUNo. 2018-10 “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases” which affects narrow aspects of the guidance issued in ASUNo. 2016-02. In December 2018, the FASB issued ASUNo. 2018-20 “Leases (Topic 842) – Narrow Scope Improvements for Lessors” which provides specific guidance for lessors on the issues of sales taxes and other similar taxes collected

from lessees, certain lessor costs, and recognition of variable payments for contracts with lease andnon-lease components. In March 2019, the FASB issued ASUNo. 2019-01 “Leases (Topic 842) – Codification Improvements” which clarifies transition disclosure requirements for annual and interim periods after the date of adoption of ASUNo. 2016-02.

We have implemented processes and information technology tools to assist in our ~~ongoing lease data analysis.~~compliance with Topic 842. We have also updated our accounting policies and internal controls that are impacted by the new guidance. We adopted ASUNo. 2016-02 utilizing the modified retrospective transition method and did not recast comparative periods in transition to the new standard. In addition, the new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. We elected the ‘package of practical expedients’, which permits us not to reassess under the new standard our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. We did not elect theuse-of-hindsight or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements; the latter not being applicable to us. The adoption of this standard resulted in the recognition of operating leaseright-of-use assets and liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheet of $5,361 and $5,320, ~~respectively.~~respectively, during the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The new standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s initial and ongoing accounting. We elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify. We also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease andnon-lease components for all of our leases. Refer to Note 3 – ~~Leases~~“Leases” for additional information regarding the Company’s leases.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASUNo. 2018-02“Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income”. The amendments in this Update allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCL”) to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. The amendments in this Update also require certain disclosures about stranded tax effects. The amendments in this Update should be applied either in the period of adoption or retrospectively to each period (or periods) in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is recognized. The Company adopted ASUNo. 2018-02 in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and reclassified $976 from AOCL to retained earnings. Refer to Note 10 – ~~Accumulated~~“Accumulated Other Comprehensive ~~Loss~~Loss” for additional detail. ASU2018-02 was not applied retrospectively. No other income tax effects related to the application of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act were reclassified from AOCL to retained earnings.

~~There are no~~The following recent accounting pronouncements ~~that~~ have ~~been issued and~~ not yet ~~adopted~~been adopted:

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASUNo. 2019-12 “Income Taxes (Topic 740)”. The amendments in this Update simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions, providing updated requirements and specifications in certain areas and by making minor codification improvements. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within that ~~are expected~~fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted. This Update is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal 2022. We do not expect this accounting Update to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

~~Note 15 – Subsequent Events~~

On October 7, 2019 we experienced a fire at our peanut processing facility located in Garysburg, North Carolina. No personnel were injured, and there was no damage to our peanut shelling and inventory storage areas. The fire occurred in our roasting room where all of the roasting equipment was destroyed. The fire also damaged some equipment in our packaging room and a portion of the roof. Due to order lead times for roasting equipment, we do not expect to have roasting capability for inshell peanuts for approximately one year. We have already secured supply of inshell roasted peanuts to meet our near term production requirements, and we will package those peanuts in our other facilities. We are currently evaluating our options with regard to our peanut production operations, which include (among other things) complete restoration of these damaged equipment or outsourcing our roasted inshell peanut requirements. We have adequate property damage and business interruption insurance (subject to applicable deductibles) and do not expect this event to have a material effect on our financial performance for the 2020 fiscal year.

On October 29, 2019, our Board of Directors declared a special cash dividend of $2.00 per share on all issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and Class A Stock of the Company (the “October 2019 Dividend”). The October 2019 Dividend will be paid on December 10, 2019 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 26, 2019.

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

OVERVIEW

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Our fiscal year ends on the final Thursday of June each year, and typically consists offifty-two weeks (four thirteen-week quarters). Additional information on the comparability of the periods presented is as follows:

References herein to fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019 are to the fiscal year ending June 25, 2020 and the fiscal year ended June 27, 2019, respectively.

References herein to the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019 are to the quarters ended ~~September~~December 26, 2019 and ~~September~~December 27, 2018, respectively.

References herein to the first half or firsttwenty-six weeks of fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019 are to thetwenty-six weeks ended December 26, 2019 and December 27, 2018, respectively.

As used herein, unless the context otherwise indicates, the terms “we”, “us”, “our” or “Company” collectively refer to John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiary, JBSS Ventures, LLC. Our Company’s Credit Facility and Mortgage Facility, as defined below, are sometimes collectively referred to as “our financing arrangements.”

We are one of the leading processors and distributors of peanuts, pecans, cashews, walnuts, almonds and other nuts in the United States. These nuts are sold under a variety of private brands and under theFisher, Orchard Valley Harvest,Squirrel Brand, Southern Style Nutsand Sunshine Countrybrand names. We also market and distribute, and in most cases, manufacture or process, a diverse product line of food and snack products, including peanut butter, almond butter, cashew butter, candy and confections, snacks and trail mixes, snack bites, sunflower kernels, dried fruit, corn snacks, chickpea snacks, sesame sticks and other sesame snack products under private brands and brand names. We distribute our products in the consumer, commercial ingredients and contract packaging distribution channels.

The Company’s long-term objective to drive profitable growth, as identified in our strategic plan (the “Strategic Plan”), includes continuing to growFisher, Orchard Valley Harvest, Squirrel Brandand Southern Style Nuts into leading nut brands by focusing on consumers demanding quality nuts in the snacking, recipe, trail and snack mix and produce categories, providing integrated nut solutions to grownon-branded business at existing key customers in each distribution channel and expanding our offerings into alternative distribution channels. We are executing on our Strategic Plan by continuing to expand distribution of ourOrchard Valley HarvestandSouthern Style Nutsproducts, ~~and~~ growing our consumer distribution channel with private brand ~~products.~~products and expanding distribution with new foodservice customers.

We face a number of challenges in the future which include, among others, potential acquisition cost volatility for almonds and increasing commodity costs for walnuts, as well as intensified competition on pricing and for market share from both private brand and name brand nut products. OurFisherrecipe nut sales have been negatively impacted recently due to this increased competition for market share. We also face changing industry trends resulting in retail consolidation and Internet price competition for nut andnut-related products.

We will continue to focus on seeking profitable business opportunities to maximize the utilization of our production capacity at our primary manufacturing, processing and distribution facility located in Elgin, Illinois (the “Elgin Site”) and evaluate facility expansion to meet customer demand. We expect to maintain our current level of promotional and advertising activity for ourOrchard Valley Harvest andFishersnack brands. We continue to see significant domestic sales and volume growth in ourOrchard Valley Harvest brand and will continue to focus on this portion of our branded business as well as ourSquirrel BrandandSouthern Style Nuts brands. We will continue to face the ongoing challenges specific to our business, such as food safety and regulatory issues and the maintenance and growth of our customer base for branded and private label products. See the information referenced in Part II, Item 1A — “Risk Factors” of this report for additional information about our risks, challenges and uncertainties.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Sales

Our net sales ~~increased 6.6%~~decreased 2.7% to ~~$217.8~~$246.4 million in the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to net sales of ~~$204.3~~$253.3 million for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2019. ~~Sales~~The decrease in net sales was primarily attributable to lower selling prices, which resulted from a shift in sales volume from higher priced pecans and walnuts to lower priced trail and snack mixes, peanuts and cashews. Lower selling prices for pecans and cashews, which were due to lower commodity acquisition costs, also contributed to the overall reduction in selling prices. The decline in net sales from lower selling prices was largely offset by a 4.8% increase in sales volume, which is defined as pounds sold to ~~customers, increased 9.1%~~customers.

For the firsttwenty-six weeks of fiscal 2020 our net sales were $464.3 million, an increase of $6.7 million, or 1.5%, compared to the same period of fiscal 2019. The increase in net sales was due to a 6.8% increase in sales volume and was largely offset by lower selling prices resulting primarily for the same reasons cited in the quarterly comparison. ~~The weighted average sales price per pound decreased approximately 2.3% primarily due to lower selling prices for cashews, pecans and walnuts as a result of lower commodity acquisition costs.~~

The following table summarizes sales by product type as a percentage of total gross sales. The information is based upon gross sales, rather than net sales, because certain adjustments, such as promotional discounts, are not allocable to product type.

Selling expenses were $14.1 million for both periods presented. An increase of $0.7 million in payroll related and incentive compensation expense was offset by a decrease in transportation costs of $0.5 million due to decreasing costs per shipped pound and a decrease in advertising expense of $0.3 million due to a decrease in radio advertising.

These decreases were partially offset by a ~~decrease~~$1.4 million increase in payroll related and incentive compensation expense and a $0.5 million increase in commission expense.

Administrative expenses for the firsttwenty-six weeks of ~~$0.2~~fiscal 2020 were $18.5 million, ~~in amortization expense related~~an increase of $1.6 million, or 9.5%, compared to the ~~intangible assets acquired~~same period of fiscal 2019.

Interest expense for the first ~~quarter~~two quarters of fiscal 2020 was $1.0 million compared to $1.7 million for the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. The decrease in interest expense was due to lower average debt levels.

Rental and Miscellaneous Expense, Net

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

General

The primary uses of cash are to fund our current operations, fulfill contractual obligations, pursue our Strategic Plan through growing our branded and private label nut programs and repay indebtedness. Also, various uncertainties could result in additional uses of cash. The primary sources of cash are results of operations and availability under our Credit Agreement, dated February 7, 2008 and subsequently amended most recently in November 2017 (as amended, the “Credit Facility”), that provides a revolving loan commitment and letter of credit subfacility. We anticipate that expected net cash flow generated from operations and amounts available pursuant to the Credit Facility will be sufficient to fund our operations for the next twelve months. Our available credit under our Credit Facility has historically allowed us ~~to devote more funds~~ to promote our products and invest in our brands (especially ourFisherandOrchard Valley Harvest brands), consummate strategic business acquisitions such as the ~~fiscal~~ 2018 acquisition of the Squirrel Brand business, reinvest in the Company through capital expenditures, develop new products, pay cash dividends the past ~~eight~~seven years and explore other growth strategies outlined in our Strategic Plan.

Cash flows from operating activities have historically been driven by net income but are also significantly influenced by inventory requirements, which can change based upon fluctuations in both quantities and market prices of the various nuts and nut products we buy and sell. Current market trends in nut prices and crop estimates also impact nut procurement.

The following table sets forth certain cash flow information for the first ~~quarter~~half of fiscal 2020 and 2019, respectively (dollars in thousands):


	September 26, 2019			September 27, 2018			$ Change			December 26, 2019			December 27, 2018			$ Change
Operating activities	$	22,468		$	15,675		$	6,793		$	54,285		$	48,366		$	5,919
Investing activities		(3,102	)		(4,768	)		1,666			(6,148	)		(9,323	)		3,175
Financing activities		(20,070	)		(11,141	)		(8,929	)		(48,335	)		(37,909	)		(10,426	)

Net increase in cash										$	(198	)	$	1,134		$	(1,332	)

Operating ActivitiesNet cash provided by operating activities was ~~$22.5~~$54.3 million for the first ~~quarter~~twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2020 compared to ~~$15.7~~$48.4 million for the ~~first quarter~~comparative period of fiscal 2019. The increase in operating cash flow was due primarily to a ~~$6.3~~$12.5 million increase in net income driven by increased sales and improved ~~profitability.~~profitability, which was partially offset due to an increased use of working capital for inventory compared to the firsttwenty-six weeks of fiscal 2019.

Total inventories were ~~$156.5~~$172.3 million at ~~September~~December 26, 2019, ~~a decrease~~an increase of $15.3 million, or 9.8%, from the inventory balance at June 27, 2019, and an increase of $0.6 million, or 0.4%, from the inventory balance at ~~June 27, 2019, and a decrease of $24.6 million, or 13.6%, from the inventory balance at September~~December 27, 2018. The ~~decrease~~increase in ~~inventories~~inventory at ~~September~~December 26, 2019 compared to ~~September~~June 27, ~~2018~~2019 was primarily ~~attributable~~due to greater quantities of walnuts on hand at a higher acquisition cost, which was partially offset by lower acquisition costs for ~~pecans, cashews and walnuts in addition to lower quantities on hand for finished goods.~~pecans.

Raw nut and dried fruit input stocks, some of which are classified as work in process, ~~increased~~decreased by ~~2.9~~9.8 million pounds, or ~~6.5%~~11.8%, at ~~September~~December 26, 2019 compared to ~~September~~December 27, ~~2018. The increase was attributable mainly~~2018 due to ~~increased~~lower quantities of ~~inshell~~ peanuts and pecans on ~~hand, which was partially offset by decreases in the quantity on hand of~~

~~most other major nut types.~~hand. The weighted average cost per pound of raw nut ~~and dried fruit~~ input stocks on hand at the end of the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2020 ~~decreased 25.9%~~increased 7.1% compared to the end of the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2019 primarily due to a higher acquisition cost for walnuts, which was offset in part by lower acquisition costs for pecans, cashews and ~~walnuts and a shift in product mix to~~ peanuts.

Investing ActivitiesCash used in investing activities ~~primarily all for capital expenditures,~~ was ~~$3.1~~$6.1 million during the first ~~quarter~~twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2020 compared to ~~$4.8~~$9.3 million for the same period last year. We expect total capital expenditures for new equipment, facility upgrades, and food safety enhancements for fiscal 2020 to be approximately ~~$15.0~~$17 to $20 million. Absent any material acquisitions or other significant investments, we believe that cash on hand, combined with cash provided by operations and borrowings available under the Credit Facility, will be sufficient to meet the cash requirements for planned capital expenditures.

Financing ActivitiesCash used in financing activities was ~~$20.1~~$48.3 million during the first ~~quarter~~twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2020 compared to ~~$11.1~~$37.9 million for the same period last year. We paid $57.3 million of dividends in the first half of fiscal 2020 compared to $29.1 million during the same period last year. Net ~~short-term~~ borrowings under our Credit Facility were ~~$16.0~~$13.5 million during the first ~~quarter~~half of fiscal 2020 compared to net ~~borrowings~~repayments of ~~$20.7~~$6.7 million for the first ~~quarter~~half of fiscal 2019. The ~~decrease~~increase in short term borrowings under our Credit Facility was ~~primarily~~ due to ~~an increase in net income and operating cash flows. The~~higher dividends paid in fiscal 2020 ~~to date were approximately $5.2 million more than the same period of fiscal 2019.~~and was partially offset by an increased operating cash flows.

Real Estate Matters

In August 2008, we completed the consolidation of our Chicago-based facilities into the Elgin Site. The Elgin Site includes both an office building and a warehouse. We are currently attempting to find additional tenants for the available space in the office building at the Elgin Site. Until additional tenant(s) are found, we will not receive the benefit of rental income associated with such space. Approximately 63% of the rentable area in the office building is currently ~~vacant. Approximately~~vacant, of which approximately 29% ~~of the rentable area~~ has not beenbuilt-out. There can be no assurance that we will be able to lease the unoccupied space and further capital expenditures will likely be necessary to lease the remaining space.

Financing Arrangements

On February 7, 2008, we entered into the Credit Facility with a bank group (the “Bank Lenders”) providing a $117.5 million revolving loan commitment and letter of credit subfacility. Also on February 7, 2008, we entered into a Loan Agreement with an insurance company (the “Mortgage Lender”) providing us with two term loans, one in the amount of $36.0 million (“Tranche A”) and the other in the amount of $9.0 million (“Tranche B”), for an aggregate amount of $45.0 million (the “Mortgage Facility”).

On November 29, 2017, we entered into the Consent and Ninth Amendment to our Credit Agreement (the “Ninth Amendment”) which provided lender consent to incur unsecured debt in connection with our acquisition of the assets of the Squirrel Brand business, and for the acquisition of the Squirrel Brand business to constitute a “Permitted Acquisition” under the terms of the Credit Facility. The Ninth Amendment also modified our collateral reporting requirements.

The Credit Facility, as most recently amended in November 2017, is secured by substantially all of our assets other than machinery and equipment, real property, and fixtures and matures on July 7, 2021. The Mortgage Facility is secured by mortgages on essentially all of our owned real property located in Elgin, Illinois, Gustine, California and Garysburg, North Carolina (the “Encumbered Properties”).

Credit Facility

At our election, borrowings under the Credit Facility currently accrue interest at either (i) a rate determined pursuant to the administrative agent’s prime rate plus an applicable margin determined by reference to the amount of loans which may be advanced under the borrowing base calculation, ranging from 0.25% to 0.75% or (ii) a rate based upon the London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) plus an applicable margin based upon the borrowing base calculation, ranging from 1.25% to 1.75%.

At ~~September~~December 26, 2019, the weighted average interest rate for the Credit Facility was ~~4.7%~~3.8%. The terms of the Credit Facility contain covenants that, among other things, require us to restrict investments, indebtedness, acquisitions and certain sales of assets and limit annual cash dividends or distributions, transactions with affiliates, redemptions of capital stock and prepayment of indebtedness (if such prepayment, among other things, is of a subordinate debt). If loan availability under the borrowing base calculation falls below $25.0 million, we will be required to maintain a

specified fixed charge coverage ratio, tested on a monthly basis, until loan availability equals or exceeds $25.0 million for three consecutive months. All cash received from customers is required to be applied against the Credit Facility. The Bank Lenders have the option to accelerate and demand immediate repayment of our obligations under the Credit Facility in the event of default on the payments required under the Credit Facility, a change in control in the ownership of the Company,non-compliance with the financial covenant or upon the occurrence of other defaults by us under the Credit Facility (including a default under the Mortgage Facility). As of ~~September~~December 26, 2019, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility and we currently expect to be in compliance with the financial covenant in the Credit Facility for the foreseeable future. At ~~September~~December 26, 2019, we had ~~$97.5~~$100.8 million of available credit under the Credit Facility. If this entire amount were borrowed at ~~September~~December 26, 2019, we would still be in compliance with all restrictive covenants under the Credit Facility.

We are currently updating the Credit Facility agreement and expect the term to extend another five years. The legal costs incurred to date have been capitalized and will be amortized over the length of the new agreement.

Mortgage Facility

The Mortgage Facility matures on March 1, 2023. On March 1, 2018 the interest rate on the Mortgage Facility was fixed at 4.25% per annum for the remainder of the term. Monthly principal payments on Tranche A in the amount of $0.2 million commenced on June 1, 2008. Monthly principal payments on Tranche B in the amount of $0.1 million commenced on June 1, 2008.

The terms of the Mortgage Facility contain covenants that require us to maintain a specified net worth of $110.0 million and maintain the Encumbered Properties. The Mortgage Lender is entitled to require immediate repayment of our obligations under the Mortgage Facility in the event we default in the payments required under the Mortgage Facility,non-compliance with the covenants or upon the occurrence of certain other defaults by us under the Mortgage Facility. As of ~~September~~December 26, 2019, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Mortgage Facility.

Selma Property

In September 2006, we sold our Selma, Texas properties (the “Selma Properties”) to two related party partnerships for $14.3 million and are leasing them back. The selling price was determined by an independent appraiser to be the fair market value which also approximated our carrying value. The lease for the Selma Properties has aten-year term at a fair market value rent with three five-year renewal options. In September 2015, we exercised two of the five-year renewal options which extended the lease term to September 2026. The lease extension also reduced the monthly lease payment on the Selma Properties, beginning in September 2016, to reflect then current market conditions. One five-year renewal option remains. Also, we have an option to purchase the Selma Properties from the owner at 95% (100% in certain circumstances) of the then fair market value, but not less than the original $14.3 million purchase price. The provisions of the arrangement are not eligible for sale-leaseback accounting and the $14.3 million was recorded as a debt obligation. No gain or loss was recorded on the Selma Properties transaction. As of ~~September~~December 26, 2019, ~~$9.9~~$9.8 million of the debt obligation was outstanding.

Squirrel Brand Seller-Financed Note

In November 2017 we completed the ~~Squirrel Brand acquisition.~~Acquisition. The ~~acquisition~~Acquisition was financed by a combination of cash (drawn under the Credit Facility) and a three-year seller-financed note for $11.5 million (“Promissory Note”). The principal owner and seller of the Squirrel Brand business was subsequently appointed as an executive officer of the Company and iswas considered a related ~~party.~~party until the employment of this executive officer with the Company ceased late in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. The Promissory Note is unsecured, bears interest at 5.5% per annum and is payable in equal monthly principal payments of $0.3 million, plus interest, which began in January 2018. Upon an event of default, as defined in the Promissory Note, the interest rate increases to 7.5% until such event of default is cured. We canpre-pay the Promissory Note at any time during the three-year period without penalty. At ~~September~~December 26, 2019, the principal amount of ~~$4.5~~$3.5 million of the Promissory Note was outstanding.
