(Unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein have been prepared by TreeHouse Foods, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (the "Company," "TreeHouse," "we," "us," or "our"), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") applicable to quarterly reporting on Form 10-Q. In our opinion, these statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of all interim periods reported herein. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.2022. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results.

Reclassification

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Specifically, Interest income has been reclassified out of Other (income) expense, net within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to use judgment to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

A detailed description of the Company's significant accounting policies can be found in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Discontinued Operations

On October 3, 2022, the Company completed the sale of a significant portion of the Company’s Meal Preparation business, including pasta, pourable and spoonable dressing, preserves, red sauces, syrup, dry blends and baking, dry dinners, pie filling, pita chips and other sauces, for a base purchase price of $950 million (the "Transaction" or the "Business"), subject to certain adjustments pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 10, 2022.

We have one segment manager who reports directly to the CODM with incentive compensation based on aggregated consolidated results of the Company. The annual operating plan is prepared and approved by the CODM based on consolidated results of the Company. We operate our business with a centralized financial systems infrastructure, and we share centralized resources for sales, procurement, and general and administrative activities.

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Adopted

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 was further amended in January 2021 by ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope. This guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. These transactions include contract modifications, hedging relationships, and the sale or transfer of debt securities classified as held-to-maturity. This guidance is effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 and may be applied prospectively to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated on or before December 31, 2022. The Company has identified agreements that reference LIBOR, including interest rate swap agreements, accounts receivable sale agreements, and debt agreements. The new guidance has been or will be applied as these contracts are modified to reference other rates. The Company adopted this guidance during the second quarter of 2022 as a result of a modification to a receivable sale agreement. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

3.2. GROWTH, REINVESTMENT, AND RESTRUCTURING PROGRAMS

This reinvestment will occur through 2023, and the cumulative costs incurred to date are $91.1$110.8 million. The Company currently expects the total costs will be up to $130.0 million, comprised of consulting and professional fees, employee-related costs, and investment in information technology. Consulting and professional fees are expected to include TreeHouse Management Operating System ("TMOS") initiatives at our manufacturing plants, building digital capabilities, and advancing automation and value engineering in our supply chain network. Employee-related costs primarily consist of severance, retention, and dedicated employee costs.

(2) Other
 
Other costs include restructuring costs incurred for retention, severance, organization redesign, information technology system implementation, costs to exit facilities or production, and other administrative costs. Retention includes one-time cash recognition payments that were expensed ratably from the fourth quarter of 2021 toduring the first quarter of 2022 as well as additional cash bonuses and stock-based compensation to drive retention through 2023.

TREEHOUSE FOODS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
As part of our growth, reinvestment, and restructuring programs, we generally incur expenses that qualify as exit and disposal costs under U.S. GAAP. These include severance and employee separation costs and other exit costs. Severance and employee separation costs primarily relate to cash severance, non-cash severance, including accelerated equity award compensation expense, pension, and other termination benefits. Other exit costs typically relate to lease and contract terminations. We also incur expenses that are an integral component of, and directly attributable to, our growth, reinvestment, and restructuring activities, which do not qualify as exit and disposal costs under U.S. GAAP. These include asset-related costs and other costs. Asset-related costs primarily relate to accelerated depreciation and certain long-lived asset impairments. Other costs primarily relate to start-up costs of new facilities, consulting and professional fees, information technology implementation, asset relocation costs, and costs to exit facilities.

The change in the Company's effective tax rate for the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 compared to 20212022 is primarily driven by a change in the valuation allowance recorded against certain deferred tax assets, tax expense recognized in 2022 due to the restructuring of certain Canadian subsidiaries, and tax expense recognized in 2021 due to the enactment of the "Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act" (the "CARES Act"). The change in the Company's effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 2021 is primarily driven by a change in the valuation allowance recorded against certain deferred tax assets, tax expense recognized in 2021 due to the enactment of the CARES Act, and a change in theestimated amount of non-deductible executive compensation.annual pre-tax earnings. Our effective tax rate may change from period to period based on recurring and non-recurring factors, including the jurisdictional mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation, state income taxes, settlement of tax audits, and the expiration of the statute of limitations in relation to unrecognized tax benefits.

TREEHOUSE FOODS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Management estimates that it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by as much as $0.6$0.3 million within the next 12 months, primarily as a result of the resolution of audits currently in progress and the lapsing of statutes of limitations. Approximately $0.3 millionall of the $0.6$0.3 million could affect net income when settled. The timing of cash settlement, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated for uncertain tax benefits.

Unrecognized compensation costs related to nonvested restricted stock units are approximately $24.4$23.9 million as of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and will be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.92.0 years. The grant date fair value of the awards is equal to the Company's closing stock price on the grant date.

Performance Units — Performance unit awards are granted to certain members of management. These awards contain both service and performance conditions, and for certain executive members of management, a market condition, in each case as described below.

For awards granted in years prior to 2020, for each year of the three-year performance period, one-third of the units will accrue, multiplied by a predefined percentage generally between 0% and 200%, depending on the achievement of certain operating performance measures. Accrued shares are not earned until the end of the full three-year performance period.
For performance unit awards granted in 2020 through 2022, performancePerformance goals are set and measured annually with one-quarter of the units eligible to accrue for each year in the three-year performance period. Accrued shares are earned at the end of each performance period but remain subject to forfeiture until the third anniversary of the grant date. Additionally, for the cumulative three-year performance period, one-quarter of the units will accrue. For both the annual and cumulative shares, the earned shares are equal to the number of units granted multiplied by a predefined percentage generally between 0% and 200%, depending on the achievement of certain operating performance measures.
In 2022 andFor performance unit awards granted in 2021 through 2023, certain executive members of management received awards that were measured using a relative total shareholder return ("TSR") market condition over a three-year performance period instead of a cumulative three-year performance goal. The units will accrue, multiplied by a predefined percentage between 0% and 150% for the relative TSR measure, depending on the achievement attainment over the three-year performance period based on the Company’sCompany's absolute annualized TSR relative to the annualized TSR of a Peer Group. The fair value of the portion of the awards based on relative TSR was valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model with a grant-date fair value of $50.43 on approximately 22,000 units granted in 2023 and a grant-date fair value of $26.84 on approximately 52,600 units granted in 2022 and a grant-date fair value of $59.16 on approximately 23,200 units granted in 2021.2022.

TREEHOUSE FOODS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
During the second quarter of 2022, the Company made grants to certain of the Company’s named executive officers and certain other executive officers of performance-based restricted stock units (the "PBRSU Awards"). The PBRSU Awards include a relative TSR market condition over a two-year performance period beginning on the date of grant. The units will accrue, multiplied by a predefined percentage between 0% to 450% for the relative TSR measure, depending on the achievement attainment over the two-year performance period based on Company’s absolute annualized TSR relative to the annualized TSR of the S&P Food & Beverage Select Industry Index (the "Index"). The fair value of the awards was valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model with a weighted average grant-date fair value of $58.36 on approximately 239,300 units granted in 2022.

19


These awards will be converted to stock or cash, at the discretion of the Compensation Committee, generally, on the third anniversary of the grant date with the exception of the PBRSU Awards on the second anniversary. The Company intends to settle these awards in stock and has the shares available to do so.

Performance unit awards with market conditions are valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock price, average Peer Group stock price, or the total return value of the Index. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant with a term equivalent to the expected term of the award. The expected term is the time period from the grant date to the end of the performance period. The weighted average assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulations were as follows:

18.16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Shareholder Class Action and Related Derivative Actions

The Company, as nominal defendant, and certain of its directors, officers and former directors and officers are parties to the following four shareholder derivative suits, each of which involves substantially similar claims and allegations:

(i)Wells v. Reed, et al., Case No. 2016-CH-16359 (filed Dec. 22, 2016 in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois), asserting state law claims for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment and corporate waste;
(ii)Lavin v. Reed, et al., Case No. 17-cv-01014 (filed Feb. 7, 2017 in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois), asserting state law claims for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, and corporate waste;
(iii)Bartelt v. Reed, et al., Case No. 1:19-cv-00835 (filed Feb. 8, 2019 in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois), asserting state law claims for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, and corporate waste, as well as violations of Section 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; and
(iv)City of Ann Arbor Employees' Retirement System v. Reed, et al., Case No. 2019-CH-06753 (filed June 3, 2019 in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois), asserting claims breach of fiduciary duty, aiding and abetting breaches of fiduciary duty and contribution and indemnification from the individual defendants for losses incurred by the Company.

TREEHOUSE FOODS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Essentially, all four complaints allege that TreeHouse, under the authority and control of the individual defendants: (i) made certain false and misleading statements regarding the Company's business, operations, and future prospects; and (ii) failed to disclose that (a) the Company's private label business was underperforming; (b) the Company's Flagstone Foods business was underperforming; (c) the Company's acquisition strategy was underperforming; (d) the Company had overstated its full-year 2016 guidance; and (e) TreeHouse's statements lacked reasonable basis. The complaints allege, among other things, that these actions artificially inflated the market price of TreeHouse common stock and resulted in harm to the Company, including the filing of the MPERS class action (see below). The Bartelt action also includes substantially similar allegations concerning events in 2017.

Each of these cases involves allegations similar to those in an earlier-filed, resolved federal securities class action, Public Employees' Retirement Systems of Mississippi v. TreeHouse Foods, Inc., et al., Case No. 1:16-cv-10632 ("MPERS") (filed Nov. 16, 2016), in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois brought on behalf of a class of all purchasers of TreeHouse common stock from January 20, 2016 through and including November 2, 2016. The MPERS complaint asserted claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder and was based on essentially the same facts described above. The parties filed a stipulation of settlement to resolve the MPERS class action for a cash payment of $27.0 million (funded by D&O insurance) in exchange for dismissal with prejudice of the class claims and full releases. After briefing, preliminary approval, notice and a hearing, on November 17, 2021, the Court granted final approval of the settlement and entered a final judgment dismissing the case with prejudice on a classwide basis.

Due to the similarity of the derivative complaints, Bartelt was consolidated with Lavin, and Ann Arbor was consolidated with Wells. On August 24, 2022 the stay in the consolidated Lavin case was lifted, and plaintiffs were ordered to file a single operative complaint by October 24, 2022, which defendants are in the process of responding to. On August 26, 2022, plaintiffs in the consolidated Wells case filed a second amended complaint, which was dismissed in its entirety with prejudice on March 15, 2023. The plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal on March 16, 2023, and they filed the record on appeal on May 25, 2023, which is being responded to pursuant to a briefing schedule set by the appellate court. On October 24, 2022, the plaintiffs’ designated an operative complaint in the Lavin case, which defendants have moved to strike. A briefing schedule has been set in the consolidated Wells case for defendants’ motion to strikedismiss, and the plaintiffs’ second amended complaint.was fully briefed as of May 25, 2023.

Other Claims

In addition, the Company is party in the ordinary course of business to certain claims, litigation, audits, and investigations. The Company will record an accrual for a loss contingency when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company believes it has established adequate accruals for liabilities that are probable and reasonably estimable that may be incurred in connection with any such currently pending or threatened matter. In the Company's opinion, the eventual resolution of such matters, either individually or in the aggregate, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, litigation is inherently unpredictable and resolutions or dispositions of claims or lawsuits by settlement or otherwise could have an adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the reporting period in which any such resolution or disposition occurs.

In February 2014, TreeHouse, along with its 100% owned subsidiaries, Bay Valley Foods, LLC and Sturm Foods, Inc., filed suit against Keurig Dr. Pepper Inc.'s wholly-owned subsidiary, Keurig Green Mountain ("KGM"), in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York captioned TreeHouse Foods, Inc. et al. v. Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc. et al. asserting claims under the federal antitrust laws, various state antitrust laws and unfair competition statutes, contending that KGM had monopolized alleged markets for single serve coffee brewers and single serve coffee pods. The Company is seeking monetary damages, declaratory relief, injunctive relief, and attorneys' fees. The matter remains pending, with summary judgment, motions to exclude certain expert opinions, and discovery sanctions motions fully briefed. On March 28, 2022, the Magistrate Judge issued a non-public Opinion and Order granting in part and denying in part the TreeHouse sanctions motion against KGM and denying the KGM sanctions motion against TreeHouse. KGM has appealed a portion of the Opinion and Order awarding sanctions to the Company. KGM is denying the allegations made by the Company in the litigation. The Company has not recorded any amount in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of SeptemberJune 30, 2022.2023.

19.17. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

Interest Rate Swap Agreements - The Company manages its exposure to changes in interest rates by optimizing the use of variable-rate and fixed-rate debt and by utilizing interest rate swaps to hedge our exposure to changes in interest rates, to reduce the volatility of our financing costs, and to achieve a desired proportion of fixed versus floating-rate debt, based on current and projected market conditions.

2623

TREEHOUSE FOODS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
The Company has entered into long-term interest rate swap agreements to lock into a fixed LIBOR interest rate base that havewith a notional value of $875.0 million as of both SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021.2022, to fix the interest rate base. Subsequent to June 30, 2023, SOFR will become the reference rate for the Company's interest rate swap agreements as a result of LIBOR ceasing to be a representative rate. Under the terms of the agreements, $875.0 million in variable-rate debt is swapped for a weighted average fixed interest rate base of approximately 2.91% from 2021 through February 28, 2025.

Commodity Contracts - Certain commodities the Company uses in the production and distribution of its products are exposed to market price risk. The Company utilizes derivative contracts to manage this risk. The majority of commodity forward contracts are not derivatives, and those that are generally qualify for the normal purchases and normal sales scope exception under the guidance for derivative instruments and hedging activities and, therefore, are not subject to its provisions. For derivative commodity contracts that do not qualify for the normal purchases and normal sales scope exception, the Company accounts for the contracts as derivatives.

The Company's derivative commodity contracts may include contracts for diesel, oil, plastics, natural gas, electricity, resin, and other commodity contracts that do not meet the requirements for the normal purchases and normal sales scope exception. Diesel contracts are used to manage the Company's risk associated with the underlying cost of diesel fuel used to deliver products. Contracts for oil, plastics, and resin are used to manage the Company's risk associated with the underlying commodity cost of a significant component used in packaging materials. Contracts for natural gas and electricity are used to manage the Company's risk associated with the utility costs of its manufacturing facilities, and otherOther commodity contracts that are derivatives that do not meet the normal purchases and normal sales scope exception are used to manage the price risk associated with raw material costs. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the notional value of the derivative commodity contracts outstanding was $12.3$12.5 million and $58.8$8.9 million, respectively. These commodity contracts have maturities expiring through the remainder of 2022 and throughout 2023 and 2024 as of SeptemberJune 30, 2022.2023.

Total Return Swap Contract - The Company hashad an economic hedge program that usesused a total return swap contract to hedge the market risk associated with the unfunded portion of the Company's deferred compensation liability. The total return swap contract trades generally havehad a duration of one month and arewere rebalanced and re-hedged at the end of each monthly term. While the total return swap contract was treated as an economic hedge, the Company did not designate it as a hedge for accounting purposes. The total return swap contract iswas measured at fair value and recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, with changes in value being recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of SeptemberAt June 30, 20222023, the Company had no outstanding and unsettled total return swap contracts, and at December 31, 2021,2022, the notional value of the total return swap contract was $4.1 million and $7.0 million, respectively.$3.9 million.

Known Trends or Uncertainties

Macroeconomic Conditions

The private label value proposition is becoming increasingly important for consumers as inflation is reflectedConsumers have faced significant inflationary pressure and rising interest rates which has resulted in higher shelf price,an overall decline in food and webeverage consumption trends. Private brands, while also down on a unit basis, are performing modestly better than national brands and have seen demand for private label strengthen. Ourgained unit share. Supply chain disruption had previously been constraining our ability to service this strengthening demand continues to be impacted byall of the macro environment, including industry-widecustomer orders received, but we have invested in the supply chain disruption and labor availability challenges. These items are not only impacting our sales volume, but they are also adversely impacting our profitability. These issues coupled with commodity inflation and increased freight costs, have increased our costinventory, which has resulted in improvements in service compared to service the customer. In response, we have implemented pricing actions to recover costs that we expect willprior year. We continue to build throughout 2022. Additionally, rising interest rates during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 are challenges for both companies and consumers that are impacting the economy. The strengthening of the U.S. Dollar also adversely impacts the results ofmake steady progress in enhancing our Canadian operations.

Supply Chain Disruption and Labor Shortages

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we have experienced significant disruptions in the global supply chain network when comparedservice levels to nine months ended September 30, 2021. These disruptions include, but are not limitedtarget to items such as freight transportation availability, labor challenges, and raw materials and packaging availability challenges, which have negatively impacted our margins and ability to service demand during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. In response, we have implemented labor and supply initiatives, which includes actions such as increasing hourly labor rates, awarding bonuses to our hourly employees in order to better attract and retain talent, implementing one-time retention programs, granting additional stock-based compensation awards to drive retention, securing additional suppliers, and engaging additional transportation partners. We will continue to actively monitor and manage our response to these disruptions, but depending on duration and severity, these trends could continue to negatively impact our margins and service levels.capture private label demand.

Commodity Inflation

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the CompanyThe inflationary environment continues to experience significant cost increases comparedbe volatile and has led to 2021 acrosshigher costs for raw materials and agricultural commodities, packaging materials, fuel, energy, and agricultural commodities, including but not limitedother supply chain components. As a result of the inflationary environment, we implemented waves of pricing actions during 2022 that remain in effect in 2023. The Federal Reserve has raised the federal funds interest rate throughout 2022 and has continued to edible oils (soybean, palm, coconut,raise rates in 2023 in its effort to take action against domestic inflation. We will continue to monitor the inflationary environment and canola), durum, wheat, oats, coffee, eggs, corn, cucumbers,its economic impact on pricing and tomatoes, cucumbers, and eggs. In particular, the price of eggs has risen in 2022 in part due to a wave of avian flu which has impacted the supply of chickens and turkeys in the United States.consumer trends.

Additionally, in February 2022 as a result of the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, the United States and other countries imposed economic sanctions on Russian financial institutions, oil and gas imports, and other businesses. TreeHouse Foods is a North American focused company with no direct exposure to Russia or Ukraine. As such, the impact to TreeHousethe Company has not been material to date. However, sanctions imposed by the United States on Russia oil and gas imports, as well as disruption caused to Ukraine's wheat and other agricultural supply due to the ongoing military conflict, is causinghas caused further inflation to our commodity costs. We will continue to monitor any broader economic impact from the current conflict.

We manage the impact of cost increases, wherever possible, on commercially reasonable terms, by locking in prices on the quantities we expect are required to meet our production requirements. In addition, as input costs rise, we seek to recover inflation by implementing higher pricing. However, our pricing actions often lag commodity cost changes temporarily, or we may not be able to pass along the full effect of increases in raw materials and other input costs as we incur them.

Rising Interest Rates

The Federal Reserve has raised and is expected to continue to raise the federal funds interest rate throughout 2022 in its effort to take action against domestic inflation. The Company has long-term interest rate swap agreements to lock into a fixed LIBOR interest rate base in order to mitigate the Company's exposure to interest rate risk. As of September 30, 2022, we have an outstanding variable-rate debt balance of $1,405.0 million, and our interest rate swap agreements with a fixed LIBOR interest rate base are at $875.0 million. The rising interest rates have had a favorable impact to the fair value of the Company's interest rate swap agreements, and the Company recorded a $24.8 million and $77.0 million mark-to-market unrealized gain for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. Refer to Note 19 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. For additional information regarding the Company's exposure to interest rate risk, refer to Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, within the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Fluctuations

The U.S. Dollar has been strengthening compared to most foreign currencies. The most significant currency affecting our continuing operating results is the Canadian Dollar. The Canadian Dollar exposures to revenue are greater than the exposure to input costs for foreign produced products. As such, a weaker Canadian Dollar leads to an unfavorable impact to the Company’s operating results. In addition to higher input costs, the Company is impacted by the re-measurement of the Canadian Dollar denominated intercompany loans and the translation of the Canadian Dollar financial statements. The Company recorded a $3.0 million loss on foreign currency exchange within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and the Company recorded a $14.5 million and $20.8 million loss on foreign currency translation within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. We will continue to monitor the impact of foreign currency to the Company's results of operations.

The decreaseincrease is primarily due to incremental costs related to labor and supply chain disruption as a result of the macro environment as well as warehouse capacity challenges. This was partially offset by the Company's pricing actions to recover commodity and freight inflation experienced in prior periodsperiods. This was partially offset by increased costs to invest in the supply chain to improve service levels, which included increased costs for labor and favorable category mix.manufacturing plant maintenance.

The increase decreaseis primarily attributabledue to higher employee compensation costs to address retention and labor shortages. Professional$11.9 million of TSA income, lower professional fees increased in connection with set-up costs for a transition services agreement as part of the sale of a significant portion of the Meal Preparation business, and other divestiture related restructuring costs contributed to the increase.

The decrease was primarily due to $10.7 million of interest income received from the Company's Note Receivable and favorable currency exchange rate impacts between the U.S. and Canada.

Free Cash Flow From Continuing Operations

In addition to measuring our cash flow generation and usage based upon the operating, investing, and financing classifications included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, we also measure free cash flow from continuing operations (a Non-GAAP measure) which represents net cash used in operating activities from continuing operations less capital expenditures. We believe free cash flow is an important measure of operating performance because it provides management and investors a measure of cash generated from operations that is available for mandatory payment obligations and investment opportunities such as funding acquisitions, repaying debt, repurchasing public debt, and repurchasing our common stock.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures to give reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Company's reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. These controls and procedures also give reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in such reports is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Interim Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. The scope of management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures includes all of the Company’s subsidiaries with the exception of the internal control over financial reporting of the operations of the acquisitions of the seasoned pretzel and coffee roasting capabilities, which were completed on April 1, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively. This exclusion is in accordance with the general guidance from the Staff of the SEC that an assessment of a recently acquired business's internal control over financial reporting may be omitted from the scope of management’s assessment for a period of up to one year following the acquisition. We are in the process of implementing the Company’s internal control over financial reporting of the acquisitions. The net sales and total assets of the acquisitions represented approximately 0.1% and 2.4%, respectively, of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statement amounts as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 that has materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
