TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On February 26, 2008, Performance Food Group Company, a Tennessee corporation (the “Company”), issued a press release announcing its earnings results for the three and twelve months ended December 29, 2007, the text of which is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
The press release furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 contains certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by Regulation G of the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. To supplement the Company’s disclosure regarding its expected range of earnings per share diluted for the 2008 fiscal year, the Company is disclosing its expected range of earnings per share diluted for the 2008 fiscal year excluding the impact of costs associated with the previously announced closure of its Magee, Mississippi broadline distribution facility. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The Company believes that this non-GAAP financial measure will be useful to investors by providing them with additional information that will allow them to compare the Company’s 2007 earnings per share diluted to its currently estimated earnings per share diluted for 2008 by excluding costs that are not expected to be recurring and that are not related to the Company’s core business operations. Management will exclude these costs when evaluating the Company’s actual results of operations in 2008 against management’s current internal estimates related to expected 2008 performance.
