ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS
Land O’Lakes, Inc., a Minnesota cooperative corporation (the “Company”), announced that it will soon close a dairy manufacturing facility located in Madison, Wisconsin. The Company noted that it was no longer cost effective to produce butter at the Madison location. The Company operates several other butter manufacturing facilities across the country and expects to increase production at those facilities to help compensate for the capacity that will be lost once the Madison location is closed. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
