Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q, and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete consolidated financial statements.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial data have been included. Results from operations for the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended June 26, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 25, 2010.

The September 26, 2009 balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and the footnotes included in the annual report on Form 10-K for Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc. for the fiscal year ended September 26, 2009. Throughout this presentation, we refer to the consolidated company as the “Company”.

The Company has revised the classification of certain information presented in its fiscal 2009 Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheet to conform to its fiscal 2010 presentation.

2. Stock Split

On April 28, 2010, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had approved a three-for-one stock split effected in the form of a stock dividend of two additional shares of the Company’s common stock for every one share issued. The additional shares were distributed on May 17, 2010, to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 10, 2010. The par value of the common stock remained unchanged at $0.10 per share. All share and per share data presented in this report have been adjusted to reflect this stock split.

3. Segment Reporting

The Company manages its operations through two business segments: Specialty Coffee business unit (“SCBU”) and Keurig business unit (“Keurig”). SCBU sells whole bean and ground coffee, as well as K-Cup^® portion packs containing coffee, tea and cocoa, and to a lesser extent, Keurig^® single-cup brewers and other accessories mainly in North American wholesale and retail channels, and directly to consumers. The majority of SCBU’s revenue is derived from its North American wholesale channels.

Keurig sells its single cup brewers and related accessories, as well as coffee, tea, and cocoa in K-Cup portion packs produced by a variety of licensed roasters, including SCBU, and related accessories mainly in North American wholesale and retail channels. Keurig earns royalty income from K-Cups shipped by its licensed roasters. Throughout this report, unless otherwise noted, the information provided is on a consolidated basis.

The Company evaluates performance based on several factors, including business segment income before taxes. The operating segments do not share manufacturing or distribution facilities, except for brewer fulfillment at our Knoxville facility. In the event any materials and/or services are provided to one segment by the other, the transaction is valued at estimated market price and eliminated in consolidation. The costs of the Company’s manufacturing operations are captured within the SCBU segment while the Keurig segment does not have manufacturing facilities and purchases its saleable products from third parties, including SCBU. The Company’s property, plant and equipment, inventory and accounts receivable are captured and reported discretely within each operating segment.

Expenses not specifically related to either operating segment are shown separately as “Corporate”. Corporate expenses are comprised mainly of the compensation and other related expenses of certain of the Company’s senior executive officers and other selected employees who perform duties related to our entire enterprise. Corporate expenses also include interest expense, certain corporate legal and acquisition-related expenses and compensation of the board of directors. In addition, fiscal 2009 corporate expenses are offset by $17,000,000 of proceeds received from a litigation settlement with Kraft. Corporate assets include cash and short-term investments.

Goodwill and intangibles related to the Frontier Natural Products Co-op, Tully’s, Timothy’s and Diedrich acquisitions are included in the SCBU reporting unit of the Company. Goodwill and intangibles related to Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc.’s acquisition of Keurig are included in the Keurig reporting unit of the Company.

4. Acquisitions

Diedrich Coffee, Inc.

On May 11, 2010, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Diedrich Coffee, Inc. (“Diedrich”) a specialty coffee roaster and wholesaler located in central California for approximately $305,261,000, net of cash acquired. The acquisition was financed with cash on hand and a term loan of $140,000,000. Diedrich is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company with operations integrated into the Specialty Coffee business unit (“SCBU”). The acquisition was completed on May 11, 2010, and Diedrich’s results of operations have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of that date.

Diedrich specializes in sourcing, roasting, and selling specialty coffee in a variety of packaging formats, including K-Cup^® portion packs whose brands include Diedrich Coffee^®, Gloria Jean’s^®, and Coffee People^®.

The preliminary allocation of the purchase price based on the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities assumed was based upon an independent valuation and management estimates as follows:

Restricted cash	$	623,000
Accounts receivable		10,361,000
Inventories		6,732,000
Deferred income taxes		1,733,000
Other current assets		2,543,000
Fixed assets		11,741,000
Intangibles		100,200,000
Goodwill		217,519,000
Other long-term asset		156,000
Accounts payable		(3,836,000	)
Accrued compensation costs		(8,670,000	)
Accrued expenses		(3,480,000	)
Deferred income taxes, long-term		(30,361,000	)
Total	$	305,261,000

Acquisition costs were expensed as incurred resulting in a charge to earnings of approximately $3,992,000 and $12,124,000 for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended June 26, 2010, respectively, and are included in general and administrative expenses.

Amortizable intangible assets acquired include approximately $83,300,000 for customer relationships and $16,900,000 for product names. The weighted-average amortization period for these assets is 10 years and will be amortized on a straight-line basis over their respective useful lives. Amortization expense for the intangibles (gross of tax) is expected to be approximately $3,771,000 for fiscal 2010 and $10,020,000 in each of the fiscal years 2011 through 2015.

The cost of the acquisition in excess of the fair market value of assets acquired less liabilities assumed represents acquired goodwill of approximately $217,519,000. The acquisition provides the Company with an expanded west coast presence and manufacturing and distribution synergies, which provide the basis of goodwill recognized. Goodwill and intangible assets related to this acquisition are reported in the SCBU segment of the Company. The goodwill and intangible assets recognized are not deductible for tax purposes.

The acquisition was completed on May 11, 2010 and accordingly results of operations from such date have been included in the Company’s Statement of Operations.

Timothy’s Coffee of the World Inc.

On November 13, 2009, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Timothy’s Coffee of the World Inc. (“Timothy’s”), which included its brand and wholesale coffee business. Timothy’s is as a wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary, with operations integrated into the SCBU segment. The acquisition was completed on November 13, 2009, and Timothy’s results of operations have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of that date.

Timothy’s wholesale business produces specialty coffee, tea and other beverages in a variety of packaged forms, including K-Cup^® portion packs, and sold under various brand names. The acquisition provides the Company with a Canadian presence, the Timothy’s brand name and a coffee roasting and packaging facility in Toronto.

Total consideration under the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) amounted to approximately $155,740,000 in U.S dollars. The Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants given by the parties. The total cash disbursement associated with the Agreement was $154,207,000 and the Company assumed liabilities of $1,533,000 which were recorded as a noncash transaction.

The allocation of the purchase price based on fair value of the acquired assets less liabilities assumed is as follows:

Accounts receivable	$	8,732,000

8. Product Warranties

The Company offers a one-year warranty on all Keurig^® brewers it sells. Keurig provides for the estimated cost of product warranties, primarily using historical information and repair or replacement costs, at the time product revenue is recognized. During the second and third quarters of fiscal 2010, the Company experienced higher warranty returns associated with certain brewer models associated with a quality issue. The quality issue did not represent a safety concern, and is believed to be tied to a component used in limited production primarily from late 2009. During the third quarter, the Company experienced additional warranty expense and sales returns related to this quality issue above the levels previously estimated at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2010 as new claims were reported. The Company is continuing to replace any brewers exhibiting the quality issue and has implemented hardware and software changes which it believes have corrected the issue, however, there can be no assurance that we will not experience some additional warranty expense related to this quality issue in future periods. The Company reached agreement with its suppliers and has recovered approximately $6,000,000 as reimbursement related to this issue. This recovery was reflected in the third quarter cost of sales as a reduction to warranty expense and substantially offsets the higher warranty expense and sales returns costs incurred in the fiscal third quarter.

The changes in the carrying amount of product warranties for the thirty-nine weeks ended June 26, 2010 and June 27, 2009 are as follows:

Thirty-nine weeks ended June 26, 2010
Balance at September 26, 2009	$	724,000
Provision charged to income		8,292,000
Usage, net of recoveries		(4,919,000	)
Balance at June 26, 2010	$	4,097,000
Thirty-nine weeks ended June 27, 2009
Balance at September 27, 2008	$	648,000
Provision charged to income		2,710,000
Usage		(2,277,000	)
Balance at June 27, 2009	$	1,081,000

9. Financial Instruments

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to ongoing business operations. The primary risks that are mitigated by financial instruments are interest rate risk and commodity price risk. The Company uses interest rate swaps to mitigate interest rate risk associated with the Company’s variable-rate borrowings and regularly enters into coffee futures contracts to hedge price-to-be-established coffee purchase commitments of green coffee with the objective of minimizing cost risk due to market fluctuations. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

The Company designates the swap agreements and coffee futures contracts as cash flow hedges and measures the effectiveness of these derivative instruments at each balance sheet date. The changes in the fair value of these instruments are classified in accumulated other comprehensive income (“OCI”). Gains and losses on these instruments are reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. If it is determined that a derivative is not highly effective, the gains and losses will be reclassified into earnings upon determination.

The Company has interest rate swap agreements with Bank of America N.A. and Sovereign Bank. During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended June 26, 2010, the Company paid $595,000 and $1,907,000, respectively, pursuant to the swap agreements, which increased interest expense.

The following table summarizes the interest rate swaps outstanding at June 26, 2010:

Hedged Transaction	Notional Amount of Underlying Debt		Fixed Rate Received		Maturity	Fair Value of Swap
30-day LIBOR	$	19,800,000	5.44	%	2011	$	(859,000	)

The Company estimates the deferred gains (losses) of coffee futures will be reclassified to net income within the next nine months, which is consistent with the period over which the Company hedges its exposure to the variability in future cash flows. The Company hedges a portion of its exposure to the variability in interest rates through the maturity date of its credit facility.

The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other parties to these financial instruments, however nonperformance is not anticipated.

10. Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures fair value as the selling price that would be received for an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in the principal or most advantageous market on the measurement date. The hierarchy established by the FASB prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used in the valuation technique. The inputs are categorized into the following levels:

Level 1 – Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for identical or similar assets and liabilities in active or non-active markets

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs not corroborated by market data, therefore requiring the entity to use the best available information, including management assumptions

The following table discloses the level used by fair value measurements at June 26, 2010:

	Fair Value Measurements Using							Balance Sheet Classification
	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3
Derivatives	$	—	$	(2,514,000	)	$	—	Other short-term liabilities
Total	$	—	$	(2,514,000	)	$	—
The following table discloses the level used by fair value measurements at September 26, 2009:
	Fair Value Measurements Using							Balance Sheet Classification Level 1
	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3
Short-term Investment	$	—	$	50,000,000		$	—	Short-term investments
Derivatives	$	—	$	90,000		$	—	Other current assets
Derivatives	$	—	$	(3,257,000	)	$	—	Other short-term liabilities
Total	$	—	$	46,833,000		$	—

Derivative financial instruments include coffee futures contracts and interest rate swap agreements. Short-term investments include certificates of deposit. To determine fair value, the Company utilizes the market approach valuation technique for the coffee futures contracts and certificates of deposit and the income approach for the interest rate swap agreements. The Company uses Level 2 inputs that are based on market data of identical (or similar) instruments that are in observable markets. All derivatives on the balance sheet are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income for temporary valuation adjustments and in the statement of operations for settlement of contracts.

11. Earnings Per Share

The following table illustrates the reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of basic and diluted earnings per share computations (dollars in thousands, except per share data):

	Thirteen weeks ended June 26, 2010		Thirteen weeks ended June 27, 2009		Thirty-nine weeks ended June 26, 2010		Thirty-nine weeks ended June 27, 2009
Numerator - basic and diluted earnings per share:
Net income	$	18,554	$	14,140	$	55,750	$	41,507
Denominator:
Basic earnings per share - weighted average shares outstanding		131,677,459		112,775,280		131,303,879		111,397,302
Effect of dilutive securities - stock options		6,220,794		6,234,858		6,377,887		5,920,956
Diluted earnings per share - weighted average shares outstanding		137,898,253		119,010,138		137,681,766		117,318,258

Diluted earnings per share	$	0.13	$	0.12	$	0.40	$	0.35

For the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended June 26, 2010 options to purchase 542,000 and 236,000 shares of common stock, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they were antidilutive.

For the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended June 27, 2009, options to purchase 3,000 and 933,000 shares of common stock, respectively, were excluded in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they were antidilutive.

12. Compensation Plans

Stock Option Plans

The grant-date fair value of employee stock options and similar instruments is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions for grants issued in the thirty-nine weeks ended June 26, 2010: an expected life averaging 6 years; an average volatility of 53%; no dividend yield; and a risk-free interest rate averaging 2.8%. The weighted-average fair value of options granted during the thirty-nine weeks ended June 26, 2010 was $15.95 per share.

For grants issued in the thirty-nine weeks ended June 27, 2009, the following assumptions were used: an expected life averaging 6 years; an average volatility of 52%; no dividend yield; and a risk-free interest rate averaging 2.0%. The weighted-average fair value of options granted during the thirty-nine weeks ended June 27, 2009 was $4.52 per share.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The grant-date fair value of employees’ purchase rights under the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions for the purchase rights granted in the thirty-nine weeks ended June 26, 2010: an expected life averaging 6 months; an average volatility of 41%; no dividend yield; and a risk-free interest rate averaging 0.3%. The weighted-average fair values of purchase rights granted during the thirty-nine weeks ended June 26, 2010 was $7.77 per share.

For the purchase rights granted in the thirty-nine weeks ended June 27, 2009, the following assumptions were used: an expected life averaging 6 months; an average volatility of 72%; no dividend yield; and a risk-free interest rate averaging 0.4%. The weighted-average fair values of purchase rights granted during the thirty-nine weeks ended June 27, 2009 was $3.00 per share.

For the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended June 26, 2010, income before income taxes was reduced by a stock compensation expense of $2,093,000 and $5,941,000 (gross of tax), respectively.

For the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended June 27, 2009, income before income taxes was reduced by a stock compensation expense of $1,856,000 and $4,812,000 (gross of tax), respectively.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan

The Company maintains an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the “ESOP”). The ESOP is qualified under sections 401(a) and 4975(e)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code. In the thirty-nine week periods ended June 26, 2010 and June 27, 2009, the Company recorded compensation costs of $956,000 and $195,000 to accrue for anticipated stock distributions under the ESOP, respectively. On June 26, 2010, the ESOP held 38,060 unearned shares at an average cost of $2.01.

Deferred Compensation Plan

The Company also maintains a Deferred Compensation Plan, which is not subject to the qualification requirements of Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and which allows participants to defer compensation until a future date. Only non-employee directors and certain highly compensated employees of the Company selected by the Company’s board of directors are eligible to participate in the Plan. In the thirty-nine week periods ended June 26, 2010 and June 27, 2009, $120,000 and $80,000 of compensation expense was recorded under this Plan, respectively.

13. Income Taxes

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax benefits or consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities, and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

As of June 26, 2010, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of $21,000,000 each for federal and state, as well as a $26,000,000 combined federal and state capital loss carryforward available to be utilized against future taxable income for years through fiscal year 2029, subject to annual limitation pertaining to change in ownership rules under the Internal Revenue Code. Based upon earnings history, the Company has concluded that it is more likely than not that the net operating loss carryforwards will be utilized prior to their expiration, but the capital loss carryforward will not. The Company has recorded a valuation allowance against the entire deferred tax asset balance for the capital loss carryforward.

The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits at June 26, 2010 and September 26, 2009 was $5,400,000 and $400,000, respectively. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits at June 26, 2010 that would impact the effective tax rate if resolved in favor of the Company is $5,400,000. The Company is indemnified for $4,900,000 of the total reserve balance. If resolved in favor of the Company, the associated indemnification receivable, recorded in other long-term assets, would be reduced accordingly. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes.

The federal research and development tax credit expired on December 31, 2009. The Company has claimed a tax credit through December 31, 2009. In the event the legislature renews the tax credit, the Company will report an additional amount of federal tax credit as a discrete item in the quarter in which the credit is enacted. With this exception, the Company does not expect a significant change to the amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.

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

The following discussion and analysis is intended to help you understand the results of operations and financial condition of Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”). You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report.

Overview

We are a leader in the specialty coffee and the overall coffee maker business. We roast high-quality Arabica bean coffees and offer over 100 coffee selections, including single-origins, estates, certified organics, Fair Trade Certified ^TM, proprietary blends, and flavored coffees that sell under the Green Mountain Coffee^®, Newman’s Own^® Organics, Tully’s^® Coffee and, as of November 13, 2009, the Timothy’s^® World Coffee brands and, as of May 11, 2010, Diedrich Coffee^®, Gloria Jeans^® and Coffee People^® brands. We also sell cocoa, teas and coffees in K-Cup^® portion packs, Keurig^® single-cup brewers and other accessories. In recent years, a significant driver of the Company’s growth has been the sale of K-Cups and Keurig brewing systems.

Business Segments

The Company manages its operations through two operating segments, Specialty Coffee business unit (“SCBU”) and Keurig business unit (“Keurig”). We evaluate performance primarily based on segment income before taxes. Expenses not specifically related to either operating segment are recorded as “Corporate”.

SCBU sells whole bean and ground coffee, as well as K-Cup portion packs, and to a lesser extent, Keurig single-cup brewers and other accessories mainly in North American wholesale and retail channels, and directly to consumers. The majority of SCBU’s revenue is derived from its North American wholesale channels.

Keurig is a pioneer and leading manufacturer of gourmet single-cup brewing systems and targets its premium patented single-cup brewing systems for consumers at home (“AH”) and away-from-home (“AFH”) mainly in North America. Keurig sells its AH single-cup brewers to select retailers such as department stores and club stores and directly to consumers. It sells its AFH single-cup brewers to distributors for offices. Keurig also sells coffee, tea and cocoa in K-Cups produced by a variety of roasters, including SCBU, as well as related accessories to select retailers such as department stores and club stores and also directly to consumers. Keurig earns royalty income from K-Cups shipped by its licensed roasters.

Cost of sales for the Company consists of the cost of raw materials including coffee beans, cocoa, flavorings and packaging materials; a portion of our rental expense; the salaries and related expenses of production; distribution and merchandising personnel; depreciation on production equipment; the cost of brewers manufactured by suppliers, and freight, duties and delivery expenses. Selling and operating expenses consist of expenses that directly support sales, including media and advertising expenses; a portion of the rental expense; and the salaries and related expenses of employees directly supporting sales and marketing as well as research and development. General and administrative expenses consist of expenses incurred for corporate support and administration, including a portion of the rental expense and the salaries and related expenses of personnel not elsewhere categorized, and starting in fiscal 2010, include certain acquisition-related expenses.

Historically, SCBU and Keurig operating segments have not shared manufacturing or distribution facilities, except for brewer fulfillment at our Knoxville facility. Expenses not specifically related to either operating segment are shown separately as “Corporate”. Corporate expenses are comprised mainly of the compensation and other related expenses of certain of the Company’s senior executive officers and other selected employees who perform duties related to our entire enterprise. Corporate expenses also include interest expense, certain corporate legal expenses and compensation of the board of directors. In addition, corporate expenses include, starting in fiscal 2010, acquisition-related costs, and in fiscal 2009, corporate expenses are offset by $17.0 million of proceeds received from a litigation settlement with Kraft. Corporate assets include cash and short-term investments.

Goodwill and intangibles related to the Frontier, Tully’s, Timothy’s and Diedrich acquisitions are included in the SCBU reporting unit of the Company. Keurig related goodwill and intangibles are included in the Keurig reporting unit of the Company.

Basis of Presentation

Included in this presentation are discussions and reconciliations of income before taxes, net income and diluted earnings per share in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) to income before taxes, net income and diluted earnings per share excluding certain expenses and losses, which we refer to as non-GAAP income before taxes, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. These non-GAAP measures exclude acquisition-related transaction expenses, one-time operating income related to the Company’s patent litigation settlement and the related legal expenses. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP. The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP measures in discussing and analyzing its results of operations because it believes the non-GAAP measures provide investors with greater transparency by helping to illustrate the underlying financial and business trends relating to the Company’s results of operations and financial condition and comparability between current and prior periods. Management uses the non-GAAP measures to establish and monitor budgets and operational goals and to evaluate the performance of the Company.

These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute or superior to, the other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Using only the non-GAAP financial measures to analyze our performance would have material limitations because their calculation is based on the subjective determination of management regarding the nature and classification of events and circumstances that investors may find significant. Management compensates for these limitations by presenting both the GAAP and non-GAAP measures of its results.

Acquisitions

On November 13, 2009, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Timothy’s Coffee of the World Inc. (“Timothy’s”), which included its brand and wholesale coffee business for an aggregate cash purchase price of approximately $155.7 million. The acquisition was financed using available cash on hand.

On May 11, 2010, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Diedrich Coffee Inc. (“Diedrich”) for approximately $305.3 million, net of cash acquired. The acquisition was financed using available cash on hand, the existing credit facility and a term loan of $140.0 million.

Company Summary

Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2010 increased 64% to $311.5 million, up from $190.5 million reported in the third quarter of fiscal 2009 (“the prior year period”). The two primary drivers of the 64%, or $121.0 million, increase in the Company’s net sales were the 90%, or $93.1 million, increase in total K-Cup^® portion pack net sales and the 69%, or $26.2 million, increase in Keurig^® brewer and accessories sales. Approximately 86% of consolidated net sales this past quarter were from the Keurig brewing system and its recurring K-Cup portion pack revenue with total K-Cup portion pack net sales of $196.9 million, total Keurig brewer and accessories net sales of $64.3 million and royalty income from K-Cups shipped by its licensed roasters of $8.1 million.

SCBU

SCBU segment net sales, after intercompany eliminations, increased by $53.9 million or 54%, to $154.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2010 as compared to $100.4 million in the prior year period. Over 90% of the increase in SCBU’s net sales was due to higher K-Cup sales.

Keurig

Keurig segment net sales, after intercompany eliminations, increased by $67.1 million, or 74%, to $157.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2010 as compared to $90.1 million reported in the prior year period, with approximately two-thirds of the increase driven by K-Cup sales to retailers and consumers.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2010, K-Cup portion packs shipped system-wide by all Keurig licensed roasters was 683 million, an increase of 72% over the prior year period. Additionally, there were 846,000 system-wide brewers with Keurig-branded brewing technology shipped during the third quarter of fiscal 2010 as compared to 444,000 shipped during the prior year period.

Gross Profit

Company gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2010 totaled $109.7 million, or 35.2% of net sales, as compared to $64.1 million, or 33.6% of net sales, in the prior year period. The improvement was a result of higher manufacturing gross margin derived from the increase in volume of the Company’s manufactured K-Cups as a percentage of total system volume. In addition, the Company experienced continued higher levels of warranty expense and sales returns related to a quality issue associated with certain brewer models produced primarily in late calendar 2009. The quality issue did not represent a safety concern, and is believed to be tied to a component used in limited production primarily from late 2009. The Company is continuing to replace any brewers exhibiting the quality issue and has implemented hardware and software changes which it believes have corrected the issue, however, there can be no assurance that we will not experience some additional warranty expense related to this quality issue in future periods. The Company reached an agreement with its suppliers and has recovered approximately $6.0 million as reimbursement related to this issue. This recovery was reflected in the third quarter cost of sales as a reduction to warranty expense and substantially offsets the higher warranty expense and sales returns costs incurred in the third quarter of fiscal 2010.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses (S,G&A) as a percentage of net sales for the third quarter were 23.0% as compared to 21.7% in the prior year.

For the third quarter of fiscal 2010, general and administrative expenses include $4.0 million of acquisition-related expenses for the Diedrich acquisition as well as the amortization of identifiable intangibles of $4.3 million due to the Company’s prior acquisitions as compared to $1.5 million in the prior year third quarter.

Interest Expense

Company interest expense was $1.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2010, as compared to $1.1 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the Company’s borrowings under its Credit Facility.

Income before taxes

Company income before taxes increased 70% to $36.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2010, as compared to $21.7 million in the prior year period, and, as a percentage of net sales, 11.8% and 11.4%, respectively.

Excluding the impact of the $4.0 million non-deductible acquisition-related expenses for the Diedrich acquisition in the third quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company’s non-GAAP income before taxes was $40.7 million, or 13.1% of net sales as compared to $21.7 million, or 11.4% of net sales in the prior year period.

The SCBU segment contributed $27.8 million in income before taxes in the third quarter of fiscal 2010, up from $16.0 million in the prior year period.

The Keurig segment contributed $22.7 million in income before taxes in the third quarter of fiscal 2010, up from $11.1 million in the prior year period.

The Corporate segment accounted for a reduction of $(10.3) million in income before taxes in the third quarter of fiscal 2010, as compared to a reduction of $(5.4) million in the prior year period. The increased reduction in income before taxes was primarily attributable to acquisition costs related to the Diedrich acquisition of $4.0 million combined with an increase in interest expense as discussed above.

Taxes

The effective income tax rate for the Company was 49.5% in the third quarter of fiscal 2010, as compared to 34.7% in the prior year period reflecting the tax effect of the recognition of the estimated total $12.0 million non-deductible acquisition related expenses incurred during the Company’s first, second and third quarters of fiscal 2010 for the Diedrich acquisition which closed during the Company’s third quarter of fiscal 2010.

Net Income, Non-GAAP Net Income and Diluted EPS

Company net income in the third quarter of fiscal 2010 was $18.6 million, as compared to $14.1 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2010 was $25.8 million, which is an increase of $11.7 million or 82%, as compared to $14.1 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2010 excludes the impact of $4.0 million non-deductible acquisition-related expenses incurred during the third quarter and the resulting $3.2 million tax effect of reversing the tax benefit associated with the $8.1 million acquisition related expenses previously incurred during the first and second quarters of fiscal 2010.

Company diluted EPS was $0.13 in the third quarter of fiscal 2010, as compared to $0.12 per share in the prior year period. Non-GAAP diluted EPS was $0.19 in the third quarter of fiscal 2010, as compared to $0.12 per share in the prior year period.

Company Summary

Net sales for the thirty-nine weeks ended June 26, 2010 (the “2010 YTD period”) increased 70%, to $985.8 million, up from $580.8 million reported for the thirty-nine weeks ended June 27, 2009 (the “prior YTD period”). The two primary drivers of the 70%, or $405.0 million, increase in the Company’s net sales were the 95%, or $279.2 million, increase in total K-Cup^® net sales and the 73%, or $106.5 million, increase in Keurig^® brewer and accessories sales. Approximately 87% of consolidated sales for the 2010 YTD period were from the Keurig brewing system and its recurring K-cup portion pack revenue with total K-Cup portion pack net sales of $572.3 million, total Keurig brewer and accessory net sales of $252.0 million and royalty income from K-Cups shipped by it’s licensed roasters of $30.7 million.

SCBU

SCBU segment net sales, after intercompany eliminations, increased to $439.5 million, or 55%, in the 2010 YTD period compared to $283.2 million reported in the prior YTD period. Over 85% of the increase in SCBU’s net sales was due to higher K-Cup sales.

Keurig

Keurig segment net sales, after intercompany eliminations, increased to $546.3 million, or 84%, in the 2010 YTD period as compared to $297.6 million reported in the prior YTD period. The increase in Keurig segment net sales was primarily due to higher K-Cup sales of approximately $145.2 million which increased 111% over the prior YTD period as well as an increase in brewer and accessories sales of approximately $103.1 million or 75% over the prior YTD period.

During the 2010 YTD period, K-Cup portion packs shipped system-wide totaled 2.1 billion, an increase of 73% over the prior YTD period. Additionally, there were 3,058,000 system-wide brewers with Keurig-branded brewing technology shipped during the 2010 YTD period as compared to 1,651,000 shipped during the prior YTD period.

Gross Profit

Company gross profit for the 2010 YTD period totaled $320.2 million, or 32.5% of net sales, as compared to $179.4 million, or 30.9% of net sales, in the prior YTD period. The improvement was a result of higher manufacturing gross margin derived from the increase in volume of the Company’s manufactured K-Cups as a percentage of total system volume. In addition, the Company experienced during its second and third quarters of fiscal 2010 continued higher levels of warranty expense and sales returns related to a quality issue associated with certain brewer models produced primarily in late calendar 2009. The quality issue did not represent a safety concern, and is believed to be tied to a component used in limited production primarily from late 2009. The Company is continuing to replace any brewers exhibiting the quality issue and has implemented hardware and software changes which it believes have corrected the issue, however, there can be no assurance that we will not experience some additional warranty expense related to this quality issue in future periods. The Company reached an agreement with its suppliers and has recovered approximately $6.0 million as reimbursement related to this issue. This recovery was reflected in the third quarter cost of sales as a reduction to warranty expense and substantially offsets the higher warranty expense and sales returns costs incurred in the third quarter of fiscal 2010.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses (S,G&A) as a percentage of net sales for the 2010 YTD period increased to 22.1% or $217.7 million as compared to 21.7% or $126.0 million in the prior YTD period.

For the 2010 YTD period, general and administrative expenses include $12.1 million of acquisition-related expenses related to the completed acquisition of Diedrich, $1.9 million of acquisition-related expenses related to the completed Timothy’s acquisition as well as the amortization of identifiable intangibles of $9.5 million due to the Company’s acquisitions as compared to $3.9 million in the prior YTD period.

Patent Litigation Settlement

On October 23, 2008, Keurig entered into a Settlement and License Agreement with Kraft Foods, Inc., Kraft Foods Global, Inc., and Tassimo Corporation (collectively “Kraft”) providing for a complete settlement of Keurig’s previously filed lawsuit against Kraft during the first quarter of fiscal 2009. Accordingly, the Company recognized the receipt of a patent litigation settlement of $17.0 million as a non-recurring item included in operating income for the Company’s first quarter of fiscal 2009.

Interest Expense

Company interest expense decreased to $3.4 million in the 2010 YTD period, down from $3.5 million in the prior YTD period. The net decrease is due to an increase of $800,000 of capitalized interest offset by an increase of approximately $700,000 due primarily to an increase in borrowings.

Income before taxes

Company income before taxes increased to $98.9 million in the 2010 YTD period, up from $66.6 million in the prior YTD period, and, as a percentage of net sales, 10.0% and 11.5%, respectively. The prior year period included the $17.0 million (pretax) patent litigation settlement as described above. Excluding the patent litigation income, income before taxes increased by 99.5%, or $49.3 million, in the 2010 YTD period, up from $49.6 million in the prior YTD period.

Excluding the impact of the acquisition-related expenses of $14.1 million in the 2010 YTD period as well as the patent litigation income of $17.0 million in the prior YTD period, non-GAAP income before taxes increased 128% to $112.9 million in the 2010 YTD period from $49.6 million in the prior YTD period.

The SCBU segment contributed $87.0 million in income before taxes in the 2010 YTD period, up from $38.4 million in the prior YTD period.

The Keurig segment contributed $50.8 million in income before taxes in the 2010 YTD period, up from $26.1 million in the prior YTD period.

The Corporate segment accounted for a reduction of $(32.3) million before taxes in the 2010 YTD period, as compared to income of $3.1 million in the prior YTD period due primarily to the combination of the settlement of the patent litigation in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 in the amount of $17.0 million and $14.1 million of acquisition-related expenses incurred in fiscal year 2010.

Taxes

The effective income tax rate for the Company was 43.6% in the 2010 YTD period, as compared to 37.6% in the prior YTD period. The increase was primarily due to the acquisition-related expenses not being deductible for tax purposes.

Net Income, Non-GAAP and Diluted EPS

Company net income in the 2010 YTD period was $55.8 million, up 34.3% from $41.5 million in the prior YTD period. Non-GAAP net income for 2010 YTD period was $69.8 million, an increase of $38.7 million or 124.1%, as compared to the prior YTD period. Non-GAAP net income for the 2010 YTD period excludes the $14.1 million in non-deductible acquisition-related expenses incurred during the thirty-nine weeks ended June 26, 2010.

Company diluted EPS increased $0.05 to $0.40 per share in the 2010 YTD period, as compared to $0.35 per share in the prior YTD period. Non-GAAP diluted EPS was $0.51 in the 2010 YTD period, as compared to $0.27 per share in the prior YTD period.

The following tables show a reconciliation of net income and EPS to non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS (in thousands) for the thirty-nine weeks ended June 26, 2010 and June 27, 2009 (in thousands):

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our working capital decreased to $164.2 million at June 26, 2010, from $413.7 million at September 26, 2009. The decrease is largely attributable to the acquisition of Timothy’s Coffees of the World Inc. (“Timothy’s”) which was completed on November 13, 2009 at a cash purchase price of approximately $154.2 million as well as the acquisition of Diedrich Coffee Inc. (“Diedrich”), completed on May 11, 2010.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $57.4 million in the 2010 YTD period as compared to $55.9 million in the prior YTD period.

Cash flows from investing activities included capital expenditures of $84.4 million in the 2010 YTD period, as compared to $29.0 million in the prior YTD period. Additionally, cash flows used in investing activities in the 2010 YTD period included $154.2 million for the acquisition of Timothy’s and $305.3 million for the acquisition of Diedrich. We financed the Diedrich acquisition using cash on hand, a new term loan of $140.0 million, and borrowings on our existing senior revolving credit facility.

In the 2010 YTD period, cash flows from financing activities included $4.1 million generated from the exercise of employee stock options and the issuance of shares under the employee stock purchase plan, a decrease from $6.4 million in the prior YTD period. In addition, cash flows from operating and financing activities included a $5.6 million tax benefit from the exercise of non-qualified options and disqualifying dispositions of incentive stock options, a decrease from $9.1 million in the prior year period. As stock options granted are exercised, we will continue to receive proceeds and a tax deduction where applicable; however, we cannot predict either the amounts or the timing of any such proceeds or tax benefits.

Our Company maintains a Credit Facility with Bank of America, N.A., and other lenders (“Credit Facility”). In connection with our acquisition of Diedrich, we entered into an Amendment to our Credit Facility (“Amendment”) that provides for a new Term Loan A1 of $140.0 million to be amortized at a rate of 10% annually. Borrowings under the Term Loan A1 bear interest either at LIBOR plus 250 basis points annually or at Base plus 150 basis points annually, at our option. All borrowings under the Credit Facility, including the Term Loan A1, are due in December 2012. At June 26, 2010, $271.4 million was outstanding under the Credit Facility as compared to $78.0 million at September 26, 2009, and $140.0 million was available for borrowing at June 26, 2010. The Amendment also provides for a new increase option for an aggregate amount of up to $100.0 million.

We are party to interest rate swap agreements with Bank of America N.A. (“Bank of America”) and Sovereign Bank. The total notional amount of the swap agreements at June 26, 2010 and September 26, 2009 was $79.8 million and $75.7 million respectively. The swap agreements terminate between June 2011 and December 2013. At June 26, 2010 and September 26, 2009, we estimate that we would have paid $2.5 million and $3.3 million (gross of tax), respectively, had we terminated our swap agreements. We designate the swap agreements as a cash flow hedges and the changes in the fair value of the swaps are classified in accumulated other comprehensive income.

The credit facility is subject to the following financial covenants: a funded debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio and a fixed charge coverage ratio. We were in compliance with these covenants at June 26, 2010.

We expect to spend between $120.0 million and $140.0 million in capital expenditures in fiscal 2010. Capital expenditures are anticipated to be funded from operating cash flows and availability under our credit facility.

We may increase our borrowings or seek to amend our credit facility to finance our growth, including growth by acquisitions. The availability and terms of any such financing would be subject to prevailing market conditions and other factors at that time and there can be no assurance that we will be able to secure financing on terms as favorable as our existing facility.

We believe that our cash flows from operating activities, existing cash and our credit facility will provide sufficient liquidity to pay all liabilities in the normal course of business, fund anticipated capital expenditures and service debt requirements through the next 12 months. However, several risks and uncertainties could cause us to need to raise additional capital through equity and/or debt financing. We also may consider from time to time engaging in stock buyback plans or programs.

A summary of cash requirements related to our outstanding long-term debt, future minimum lease payments and inventory purchase commitments is as follows:

Fiscal Year	Long-Term Debt (1)		Operating Lease Obligations		Purchase Obligations		Total
2010	$	4,767,000	$	2,262,000	$	207,582,000	$	214,611,000
2011		19,052,000		8,893,000		276,193,000	$	304,138,000
2012		19,052,000		7,728,000		74,505,000	$	101,285,000
2013		228,553,000		5,785,000		3,905,000	$	238,243,000
2014		14,000		5,578,000		—	$	5,592,000
Thereafter		—		8,960,000		—	$	8,960,000
Total	$	271,438,000	$	39,206,000	$	562,185,000	$	872,829,000

(1) Fiscal 2010 through fiscal 2012 long-term debt obligations are comprised of capital lease obligations and amortizing loan payments for the term loan.

Factors Affecting Quarterly Performance

Historically, the Company has experienced variations in sales and earnings from quarter to quarter due to the holiday season and a variety of other factors, including, but not limited to, general economic trends, the cost of green coffee, competition, marketing programs, weather and special or unusual events. Because of the seasonality of our business, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full fiscal year.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements contained herein are not based on historical fact and are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the applicable securities laws and regulations. Generally, these statements can be identified by the use of words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “feel,” “forecast,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “project,” “should,” “would,” and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Owing to the uncertainties inherent in forward-looking statements, actual results could differ materially from those stated here. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the impact on sales and profitability of consumer sentiment in this difficult economic environment, the Company’s success in efficiently expanding operations and capacity to meet growth, the Company’s success in efficiently and effectively integrating Timothy’s and Diedrich’s wholesale operations and capacity into its Specialty Coffee business unit, the Company’s success in introducing and producing new product offerings, the ability of lenders to honor their commitments under the Company’s credit facility, competition and other business conditions in the coffee industry and food industry in general, fluctuations in availability and cost of high-quality green coffee, any other increases in costs including fuel, Keurig’s ability to continue to grow and build profits with its roaster partners in the At Home and Away from Home businesses, the Company experiencing product liability, product recall and higher than anticipated rates of warranty expense or sales returns associated with a product quality or safety issue, the impact of the loss of major customers for the Company or reduction in the volume of purchases by major customers, delays in the timing of adding new locations with existing customers, the Company’s level of success in continuing to attract new customers, sales mix variances, weather and special or unusual events, as well as other risks described more fully in the Company’s filings with the SEC. Forward-looking statements reflect management’s analysis as of the date of this filing. The Company does not undertake to revise these statements to reflect subsequent developments, other than in its regular, quarterly earnings releases.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risks relating to our operations result primarily from changes in interest rates and the commodity “c” price of coffee (the price per pound quoted by the Coffee, Sugar and Cocoa Exchange). To address these risks, we enter into hedging transactions as described below. We do not use financial instruments for trading purposes.

For purposes of specific risk analysis, we use sensitivity analysis to determine the impacts that market risk exposures may have on our financial position or earnings.

Interest rate risks

The table below provides information about our debt obligations that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. The table presents principal cash flows and related weighted average interest rates by expected maturity dates.

	Expected maturity date
	2010			2011			2012			2013			2014			Total
Long-term debt:
Variable rate (in thousands)	$	4,750		$	19,000		$	19,000		$	188,700		$	—		$	231,450
Average interest rate		5.0	%		3.1	%		3.1	%		2.8	%		0.0	%		2.9	%
Fixed rate (in thousands)	$	17		$	52		$	52		$	39,853		$	14		$	39,988
Average interest rate		19.6	%		24.5	%		25.9	%		5.4	%		27.5	%		5.5	%

At June 26, 2010 we had $231.5 million outstanding under our Credit Facility subject to variable interest rates. Should interest rates (LIBOR and Prime rates) increase by 100 basis points, we would incur additional interest expense of $2,315,000 annually. At September 26, 2009 we had $2.3 million subject to variable interest rates. As discussed further under the heading “Liquidity and Capital Resources” the Company is party to interest rate swap agreements.

On June 26, 2010, the effect of our interest rate swap agreements was to limit the interest rate exposure on the outstanding balance of the Credit Facility to a fixed rate versus the 30-day Libor rate as follows: 5.4% on $19.8 million and 3.9% on $20 million. The total notional amount covered by these swaps will decrease progressively in future periods and terminates on various dates from June 2011 through December 2012.

Commodity price risks

The “c” price of coffee is subject to substantial price fluctuations caused by multiple factors, including weather and political and economic conditions in coffee-producing countries. Our gross profit margins can be significantly impacted by changes in the “c” price of coffee. We enter into fixed coffee purchase commitments in an attempt to secure an adequate supply of coffee. These agreements are tied to specific market prices (defined by both the origin of the coffee and the time of delivery) but we have significant flexibility in selecting the date of the market price to be used in each contract. We generally fix the price of our coffee contracts three to nine months prior to delivery, so that we can adjust our sales prices to the market. At June 26, 2010, the Company had approximately $148.2 million in green coffee purchase commitments, of which approximately 58% had a fixed price. At September 26, 2009, the Company had approximately $90.8 million in green coffee purchase commitments, of which approximately 46% had a fixed price.

In addition, we regularly use commodity-based financial instruments to hedge price-to-be-established coffee purchase commitments with the objective of minimizing cost risk due to market fluctuations. These hedges generally qualify as cash flow hedges. Gains and losses are deferred in other comprehensive income until the hedged inventory sale is recognized in earnings, at which point they are added to cost of sales. At June 26, 2010, we did not have any outstanding futures contracts. At September 26, 2009, we held outstanding futures contracts covering 1,125,000 pounds of coffee with a fair market value of $90,000, gross of tax.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of June 26, 2010, the Company’s management with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act) are effective.

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
