OAK BROOK, Ill., Nov. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- TreeHouse Foods, Inc. (NYSE: THS) today reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.
"I'm proud of how we have successfully reshaped our business. Today we have greater strategic focus on accelerating our growth, improving operational efficiency and enhancing the value we deliver to our customers and consumers - all reflected in our recently unveiled statement of corporate purpose: to engage and delight - one customer at a time," said Steve Oakland, Chief Executive Officer and President. "The successful divestiture of a significant portion of our Meal Preparation assets positions us well to execute on our strategy: to capitalize on strong consumer demand trends in order to accelerate growth across our higher-margin private label snacking and beverage categories while driving long-term shareholder value."
"In the third quarter, we delivered solid sequential improvement across both revenue and profitability, reflecting the progress we are making to mitigate the disruption resulting from the challenging macro environment," Mr. Oakland continued. "I'm confident that our portfolio of private label snacking and beverage products is poised to benefit from increasing consumer demand for snacking and beverages as well as broader trends driving private label demand."
"Completing the transaction marked a significant step forward in our efforts to simplify our business, improve operational execution and accelerate growth. We have reduced debt by $500 million and meaningfully strengthened our balance sheet, positioning us to continue investing in our business and customer relationships," said Patrick O'Donnell, Interim Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer. "We continued to improve execution and profitability in a challenging environment, and we expect this momentum to build in the fourth quarter as we reach our seasonal peaks, capture further impact of pricing to recover inflation and deliver on our cost savings initiatives."
CONTINUING OPERATIONS OUTLOOK3
TreeHouse issued the following guidance for Q4 2022:
- Net sales are expected to grow 22% - 24% year-over-year, primarily driven by pricing.
- Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $105 to $120 million. Adjusted EBITDA margin is anticipated in the range of 10.5% - 12.0%, representing substantial sequential improvement from the 8.8% in the third quarter, driven by the impact of pricing actions taken to date, peak seasonality and cost savings initiatives.
- Although the industry-wide labor and supply chain environment will continue to be challenging, the Company is making steady improvement around service which it expects to continue into 2023.
With regard to 2023, the Company noted:
- Given the current economic environment, demand for private label food and beverages is expected to remain strong.
- Pre-pandemic growth for the Company's current portfolio of categories ranged from 3% to 5%. Fiscal year 2023 net sales growth is expected to be strong due to the wraparound impact of TreeHouse's pricing actions to recover inflation in 2022.
- Net interest in 2023 will reflect TreeHouse's $500 million debt repayment in October 2022, and result in a reduction of approximately $20 million in annual interest expense. In addition, TreeHouse expects to receive interest income of approximately $40 million in 2023 related to the note receivable issued as part of the transaction.

On October 3, 2022, TreeHouse completed the sale of a significant portion of its Meal Preparation business to Investindustrial for a base purchase price of $950 million. The following discussion highlights the financial results for TreeHouse on a continuing operations basis, which excludes the divested business from all periods presented. Comparable historical financials are included within this press release to facilitate comparisons of past and future operating performance. |

The Company is not able to reconcile prospective adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations or adjusted EBITDA margin from continuing operations, which are Non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures without unreasonable effort due to the inherent uncertainty and difficulty of predicting the occurrence, financial impact, and timing of certain items impacting GAAP results. These items include, but are not limited to, mark-to-market adjustments of derivative contracts, foreign currency exchange on the re-measurement of intercompany notes, or other non-recurring events or transactions that may significantly affect reported GAAP results. |
THIRD QUARTER 2022 FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR TREEHOUSE CONTINUING OPERATIONS
Net Sales — Net sales for the third quarter of 2022 totaled $875.0 million compared to $751.7 million for the same period last year, an increase of $123.3 million, or 16.4%. The change in net sales from 2021 to 2022 was due to the following:

Total change in net sales |
16.4 % |
15.4 % |
The net sales increase of 16.4% was primarily driven by favorable pricing to recover commodity inflation. This was partially offset by labor and supply chain disruption, which constrained our ability to service demand. Additionally, decreases in volume were due to exiting lower margin business particularly in Pickles.
Gross Profit — Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 14.8% in the third quarter of 2022, compared to 16.7% in the third quarter of 2021, a decrease of 1.9 percentage points. The decrease 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 periods and favorable category mix.
Total Operating Expenses — Total operating expenses were $138.8 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $116.9 million in the third quarter of 2021, an increase of $21.9 million. The increase is primarily attributable to higher employee compensation costs to address retention and labor shortages. 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. This was partially offset by lower spend in the strategic growth initiatives and other restructuring programs, which consisted primarily of professional fees.
Total Other Expense (Income) — Total other expense (income) was $3.6 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $13.5 million in the third quarter of 2021, a decrease of $9.9 million. The decrease was primarily due to favorable non-cash mark-to-market impacts from hedging activities, largely driven by interest rate swaps due to rising interest rates. This was partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate impacts between the U.S. and Canadian dollar.
Income Taxes — Income taxes were recognized at an effective rate of (15.3)% in the third quarter of 2022 compared to 8.9% recognized in the third quarter of 2021. The change in the Company's effective tax rate 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 CARES Act.
Net (Loss) Income from Continuing Operations and Adjusted EBITDA — Net loss from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2022 was $15.1 million, compared to $4.1 million for the same period of the previous year. Adjusted EBITDA1 from continuing operations was $76.6 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $85.8 million in the third quarter of 2021, a decrease of $9.2 million. The decrease in adjusted EBITDA is primarily due to incremental costs related to labor and supply chain disruption as a result of the macro environment.
Discontinued Operations — Net (loss) income from discontinued operations was a $75.4 million loss in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $10.8 million of income in the third quarter of 2021, a decrease of $86.2 million. The decrease is due to an expected loss on disposal of $73.8 million, an increase in professional fees associated with the divestiture of a significant portion of the Meal Preparation business, an increase in interest expense due to rising interest rates, and unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate impacts between the U.S. and Canadian dollar.
Net Cash Used In Operating Activities From Continuing Operations — Net cash used in operating activities from continuing operations was $90.4 million in the first nine months of 2022 compared to $57.0 million in the first nine months of 2021, an increase in cash used of $33.4 million. The increase was primarily attributable to lower cash earnings, which reflect the impact of commodity and freight cost inflation. Working capital changes have been impacted by higher sales as a result of price increases in response to commodity and freight cost inflation, which have increased receivables and inventories. This was partially offset by an increase in cash flow from accounts payable due to improved working capital management, lower incentive compensation paid in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021 based on prior year performance, lower cash paid on interest due to debt refinancing in 2021, and an increase in cash flows from the Receivables Sales Program. The Company's working capital management emphasis continues to be focused on driving faster collection of receivables and extending vendor terms.
CONFERENCE CALL WEBCAST
A webcast to discuss the Company's third quarter earnings will be held at 8:30 a.m. (Eastern Time) today. The live audio webcast and a supporting slide deck will be available on the Company's website at www.treehousefoods.com/investors/investor-overview/default.aspx
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 (the "Transaction"). Beginning in the third quarter of 2022, the business of the Transaction is presented as discontinued operations, and, as such, has been excluded from continuing operations for all periods presented.
Beginning in the third quarter of 2019, the Company determined that its Ready-to-eat Cereal business met the discontinued operations criteria and, as such, the business has been excluded from continuing operations for all periods presented. On June 1, 2021, the Company completed the sale of its Ready-to-eat Cereal business.
COMPARISON OF ADJUSTED INFORMATION TO GAAP INFORMATION
The Company has included in this release measures of financial performance that are not defined by GAAP ("Non-GAAP"). A Non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss), Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders' Equity, and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The Company believes these measures provide useful information to the users of the financial statements as we also have included these measures in other communications and publications.
For each of these Non-GAAP financial measures, the Company provides a reconciliation between the most directly comparable GAAP measure and the Non-GAAP measure, an explanation of why management believes the Non-GAAP measure provides useful information to financial statement users, and any additional purposes for which management uses the Non-GAAP measure. This Non-GAAP financial information is provided as additional information for the financial statement users and is not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP. These Non-GAAP measures may be different from similar measures used by other companies.
Organic Net Sales
Organic net sales is defined as net sales excluding the impacts of acquisitions, divestitures, and foreign currency. This information is provided in order to allow investors to make meaningful comparisons of the Company's sales between periods and to view the Company's business from the same perspective as Company management.
Adjusted Earnings Per Diluted Share, Adjusting for Certain Items Affecting Comparability
Adjusted earnings (loss) per diluted share ("adjusted diluted EPS") reflects adjustments to GAAP loss per diluted share to identify items that, in management's judgment, significantly affect the assessment of earnings results between periods. Adjusted diluted EPS is presented as continuing operations, discontinued operations, and total. This information is provided in order to allow investors to make meaningful comparisons of the Company's earnings performance between periods and to view the Company's business from the same perspective as Company management. As the Company cannot predict the timing and amount of charges that include, but are not limited to, items such as divestiture, acquisition, integration, and related costs, mark-to-market adjustments on derivative contracts, foreign currency exchange impact on the re-measurement of intercompany notes, growth, reinvestment, and restructuring programs, impairment of assets, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and other items that may arise from time to time that would impact comparability, management does not consider these costs when evaluating the Company's performance, when making decisions regarding the allocation of resources, in determining incentive compensation, or in determining earnings estimates. The reconciliation of the GAAP measure of diluted earnings (loss) per share as presented in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, excluding certain items affecting comparability, to adjusted diluted EPS is presented below.
Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDAS, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Margin, Adjusted EBIT Margin, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted EBITDAS Margin, Adjusting for Certain Items Affecting Comparability
Adjusted net income (loss) represents GAAP net (loss) income as reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations adjusted for items that, in management's judgment, significantly affect the assessment of earnings results between periods as outlined in the adjusted diluted EPS section above. Adjusted net income (loss) is presented as continuing operations, discontinued operations, and total. This information is provided in order to allow investors to make meaningful comparisons of the Company's earnings performance between periods and to view the Company's business from the same perspective as Company management. This measure is also used as a component of the Board of Directors' measurement of the Company's performance for incentive compensation purposes and is the basis of calculating the adjusted diluted EPS metric outlined above.
Adjusted EBIT represents adjusted net income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, and income tax expense. Adjusted EBITDA represents adjusted net income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDAS represents adjusted EBITDA before non-cash stock-based compensation expense. Adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDAS are performance measures commonly used by management to assess operating performance, and the Company believes they are commonly reported and widely used by investors and other interested parties as a measure of a company's operating performance between periods. Adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDAS are presented as continuing operations, discontinued operations, and total.
Adjusted net income (loss) margin, adjusted EBIT margin, adjusted EBITDA margin, and adjusted EBITDAS margin are calculated as the respective metric defined above as a percentage of net sales as reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for Continuing Operations and net sales reported in the Discontinued Operations footnote within the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for Discontinued Operations adjusted for items that, in management's judgment, significantly affect the assessment of earnings results between periods as outlined in the adjusted diluted EPS section above. Adjusted net income (loss) margin, adjusted EBIT margin, adjusted EBITDA margin, and adjusted EBITDAS margin are presented as continuing operations, discontinued operations, and total.
A full reconciliation between the relevant GAAP measure of reported net (loss) income for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 calculated according to GAAP, adjusted net (loss) income, adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDAS is presented in the attached tables. Given the inherent uncertainty regarding adjusted items in any future period, a reconciliation of forward-looking financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is not feasible.
Free Cash Flow from Continuing Operations
In addition to measuring the Company's 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, which represents net cash used in operating activities from continuing operations less capital expenditures. The Company believes 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 common stock. A reconciliation between the relevant GAAP measure of cash used in operating activities from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 calculated according to GAAP and free cash flow from continuing operations is presented in the attached tables.

The sum of the individual per share amounts may not add due to rounding.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company entered into transactions that affected the year-over-year comparison of its financial results from continuing operations as follows:
(1) |
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized an expected loss on disposal of a significant portion of the Meal Preparation business of $73.8 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized a gain on the sale of the RTE Cereal business of $18.4 million. |
(2) |
The Company's growth, reinvestment, and restructuring activities are part of an enterprise-wide transformation to improve long-term growth and profitability for the Company. For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company incurred growth, reinvestment, and restructuring program costs of approximately $23.6 million and $17.4 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company incurred growth, reinvestment, and restructuring program costs of approximately $71.3 million and $59.3 million, respectively. Additionally, the Company recognized other items affecting comparability including regulatory compliance cost reimbursements related to changes in nutrition labeling requirements. There were no other items recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. These other items were approximately $(0.1) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. |
(3) |
As a result of the sale of a significant portion of the Meal Preparation business, the Company identified two items affecting comparability – 1) central service costs and 2) conveyed employee costs.
1) The Company has historically provided central services to the Meal Preparation business including, but not limited to, IT and financial shared services, procurement and order processing, customer service, warehousing, logistics, and customs. These costs were historically incurred by TreeHouse and include employee and non-employee expenses to support the services. For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, central service costs were approximately $13.4 million in both periods. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, central service costs were approximately $40.2 million in both periods.
2) Conveyed employee costs represent compensation costs for employees that were not historically dedicated to the sold business and transferred to the buyer after the sale. For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, conveyed employee costs were approximately $8.1 million and $4.7 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, conveyed employee costs were approximately $24.8 million and $20.9 million, respectively. |
(4) |
Divestiture, acquisition, integration, and related costs represent costs associated with completed and potential divestitures, completed and potential acquisitions, and the related integration of the acquisitions. |
(5) |
The Company has foreign currency denominated intercompany loans and incurred foreign currency losses of $5.0 million and $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, to re-measure the loans at quarter end. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company incurred foreign currency losses of $4.1 million and foreign currency gains of $0.7 million, respectively. These charges are non-cash and the loans are eliminated in consolidation. |
(6) |
The Company incurred fees related to shareholder activism which include directly applicable third-party advisory and professional service fees. |
(7) |
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized $0.4 million incremental expense for the settlement payment of the $9.0 million accrual related to a litigation matter challenging wage and hour practices at three former manufacturing facilities in California. |
(8) |
Tax indemnification represents the non-cash write off of indemnification assets that were recorded in connection with acquisitions from prior years. These write-offs arose as a result of the related uncertain tax position being released due to the statute of limitation lapse or settlement with taxing authorities. |
(9) |
The Company's derivative contracts are marked-to-market each period. The non-cash unrealized changes in fair value recognized in Other income, net within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations are treated as Non-GAAP adjustments. As the contracts are settled, realized gains and losses are recognized, and only the mark-to-market impacts are treated as Non-GAAP adjustments. |
(10) |
During 2021, the Company incurred incremental expenses directly attributable to our response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which included additional protective equipment for employees and additional sanitation measures. These costs were approximately $1.1 million and $14.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. Additionally, the Company incurred income tax expense due to a change in the amount of the total benefit recognized from the enactment of the CARES Act of approximately $1.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. |
(11) |
For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company incurred a loss on extinguishment of debt totaling $14.4 million, which included a premium of $9.0 million and a write off of deferred financing costs of $5.4 million in connection with the redemption of its 2024 Notes and Credit Agreement refinancing. |
The tax impact on adjusting items is calculated based upon the tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable in the tax jurisdiction of the underlying Non-GAAP adjustments.
The following table reconciles the Company's net (loss) income to adjusted net income (loss), adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDAS for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:

Supplemental Financial Information
Overview
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 (the "Transaction" or the "Business"). Beginning in the third quarter of 2022, the Business met the criteria for discontinued operations presentation, and, as such, has been excluded from continuing operations for all periods presented.
The Company provided additional recast historical unaudited financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP reflecting discontinued operations of the sale of the Business, as well as certain Non-GAAP financial measures reflecting discontinued operations (as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission) reconciled to GAAP presentation. The Company believes the information provides investors with useful supplemental financial information regarding the Company's underlying business trends and the performance of the Company's continuing operations after the separation of the Business, on both a GAAP and Non-GAAP adjusted basis.

We have included measures of financial performance that are not defined by GAAP ("Non-GAAP"). A Non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements recast for discontinued operations. We believe these measures provide useful information to the users of the financial statements as we also have included these measures in other communications and publications.
For each of these Non-GAAP financial measures, we provide a reconciliation between the Non-GAAP measure and the most directly comparable GAAP measure, an explanation of why management believes the Non-GAAP measure provides useful information to financial statement users, and any additional purposes for which management uses the Non-GAAP measure. This Non-GAAP financial information is provided as additional information for the financial statement users and is not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP. These Non-GAAP measures may be different from similar measures used by other companies.
Adjusted Earnings Per Diluted Share From Continuing Operations, Adjusting for Certain Items Affecting Comparability
Adjusted earnings (loss) per diluted share from continuing operations ("adjusted diluted EPS") reflects adjustments to GAAP net earnings (loss) per diluted share from continuing operations to identify items that, in management's judgment, significantly affect the assessment of earnings results between periods. This information is provided in order to allow investors to make meaningful comparisons of the Company's earnings performance between periods and to view the Company's business from the same perspective as Company management. As the Company cannot predict the timing and amount of charges that include, but are not limited to, items such as divestiture, acquisition, integration, and related costs, mark-to-market adjustments on derivative contracts, foreign currency exchange impact on the re-measurement of intercompany notes, growth, reinvestment, and restructuring programs, impairment of assets, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and other items that may arise from time to time that would impact comparability, management does not consider these costs when evaluating the Company's performance, when making decisions regarding the allocation of resources, in determining incentive compensation, or in determining earnings estimates.
Adjusted Net Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations, Adjusted EBIT from Continuing Operations, Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations, Adjusted EBITDAS from Continuing Operations, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Margin from Continuing Operations, Adjusted EBIT Margin from Continuing Operations, Adjusted EBITDA Margin from Continuing Operations, and Adjusted EBITDAS Margin from Continuing Operations, Adjusting for Certain Items Affecting Comparability
Adjusted net income (loss) from continuing operations represents GAAP net income (loss) from continuing operations as reported in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations recast for discontinued operations adjusted for items that, in management's judgment, significantly affect the assessment of earnings results between periods as outlined in the adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations section above. This information is provided in order to allow investors to make meaningful comparisons of the Company's earnings performance between periods and to view the Company's business from the same perspective as Company management. This measure is also used as a component of the Board of Directors' measurement of the Company's performance for incentive compensation purposes and is the basis of calculating the adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations metric outlined above.
Adjusted EBIT from continuing operations represents adjusted net income from continuing operations before interest expense, interest income, and income tax expense. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations represents adjusted net income from continuing operations before interest expense, interest income, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDAS from continuing operations represents adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations before non-cash stock-based compensation expense. Adjusted EBIT from continuing operations, adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, and adjusted EBITDAS from continuing operations are performance measures commonly used by management to assess operating performance, and the Company believes they are commonly reported and widely used by investors and other interested parties as a measure of a company's operating performance between periods and as a component of our debt covenant calculations.
Adjusted net income (loss) margin from continuing operations, adjusted EBIT margin from continuing operations, adjusted EBITDA margin from continuing operations, and adjusted EBITDAS margin from continuing operations are calculated as the respective metric defined above as a percentage of net sales as reported in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations recast for discontinued operations adjusted for items that, in management's judgment, significantly affect the assessment of earnings results between periods as outlined in the adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations section above.
The following tables reconcile the Company's diluted earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations as presented in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations recast for discontinued operations, the relevant GAAP measure, to adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for each of the periods presented:

During the periods presented, the Company entered into transactions that affected the year-over-year comparison of its financial results from continuing operations as follows:
(1) |
The Company's growth, reinvestment, and restructuring activities are part of an enterprise-wide transformation to improve long-term growth and profitability for the Company. |
(2) |
As a result of the sale of a significant portion of the Meal Preparation business, the Company identified two items affecting comparability – 1) central service costs and 2) conveyed employee costs.
1) The Company has historically provided central services to the Meal Preparation business including, but not limited to, IT and financial shared services, procurement and order processing, customer service, warehousing, logistics, and customs. These costs were historically incurred by TreeHouse and include employee and non-employee expenses to support the services.
2) Conveyed employee costs represent compensation costs for employees that were not historically dedicated to the sold business and transferred to the buyer after the sale. |
(3) |
Divestiture, acquisition, integration, and related costs represent costs associated with completed and potential divestitures, completed and potential acquisitions, and the related integration of the acquisitions. |
(4) |
The Company has foreign currency denominated intercompany loans and incurred foreign currency gains or losses to re-measure the loans at each period end. These charges are non-cash and the loans are eliminated in consolidation. |
(5) |
The Company incurred fees related to shareholder activism which include directly applicable third-party advisory and professional service fees. |
(6) |
The Company recognized expense for the settlement related to a litigation matter challenging wage and hour practices at three former manufacturing facilities in California. |
(7) |
Tax indemnification represents the non-cash write off of indemnification assets that were recorded in connection with acquisitions from prior years. These write-offs arose as a result of the related uncertain tax position being released due to the statute of limitation lapse or settlement with taxing authorities. |
(8) |
The Company's derivative contracts are marked-to-market each period. The non-cash unrealized changes in fair value recognized in Other income, net within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations are treated as Non-GAAP adjustments. As the contracts are settled, realized gains and losses are recognized, and only the mark-to-market impacts are treated as Non-GAAP adjustments. |
(9) |
The Company incurred incremental expenses directly attributable to our response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which included additional protective equipment for employees and additional sanitation measures. Additionally, the Company incurred income tax (benefit) expense due to the enactment of the CARES Act. |
(10) |
During the first quarter of 2021, the Company incurred a loss on extinguishment of debt in connection with the 2024 Notes Redemption and Credit Agreement refinancing. During 2020, the Company incurred a loss on extinguishment of debt representing the write-off of deferred financing costs in connection with the redemption of its 2022 Notes. |
(11) |
During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company incurred non-cash impairment charges related property, plant, and equipment impairment losses in the Bars asset group. During 2019, the Company incurred non-cash impairment charges related to the Cookies asset group and to the expected disposal loss related to two In-Store Bakery facilities. |
(12) |
The Company incurred regulatory compliance costs related to changes in nutrition labeling requirements. These costs included both consulting services and inventory write-downs. |
(13) |
Executive management transition includes costs associated with the 2019 CFO transition. The CFO transition costs primarily relate to severance and consulting fees. |
(14) |
During 2019, the Company executed a complete withdrawal from the Retail, Wholesale, and Department Store International Union and Industry Pension Fund. The Company settled the withdrawal in the fourth quarter of 2019. |
The tax impact on adjusting items is calculated based upon the tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable in the tax jurisdiction of the underlying Non-GAAP adjustments.
