Item 1 -- Business
- ------------------
a. General Development of Business
- -----------------------------------
(i) Background
-----------------
John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. (the "Company" or "JBSS") was
incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in 1979 as
the successor by merger to an Illinois corporation that was
incorporated in 1959. As used herein, unless the context
otherwise indicates, the terms "Company" or "JBSS" refer
collectively to John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. and its wholly
owned subsidiary. On June 25, 1999 the Company dissolved two
(Sunshine Nut Co., Inc. and Quantz Acquisition Co., Inc.) of its
three wholly owned subsidiaries and merged such subsidiaries into
John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. References herein to fiscal 2002
are to the fiscal year ended June 27, 2002. References herein to
fiscal 2001 are to the fiscal year ended June 28, 2001. References
herein to fiscal 2000 are to the fiscal year ended June 29, 2000.
The Company is a processor, packager, marketer and distributor of
shelled and inshell nuts. These nuts are sold under a variety of
private labels and under the Company's Fisher, Evon's, Flavor
Tree, Sunshine Country, Texas Pride and Tom Scott brand names.
The Company also markets and distributes, and in most cases
manufactures or processes, a diverse product line of food and
snack items, including peanut butter, candy and confections,
natural snacks and trail mixes, sunflower seeds, corn snacks,
sesame sticks and other sesame snack products.
The Company's headquarters and executive offices are located at
2299 Busse Road, Elk Grove Village, Illinois 60007, and its
telephone number for investor relations is (847) 593-2300,
extension 6612.
b. Narrative Description of Business
- -------------------------------------
(i) General
--------------
As stated above, the Company is a processor, packager, marketer
and distributor of shelled and inshell nuts. The Company also
markets and distributes, and, in most cases manufactures or
processes, a diverse product line of food and snack items
including peanut butter, candy and confections, natural snacks and
trail mixes, sunflower seeds, corn snacks, sesame sticks and other
sesame snack products.
(ii) Principal Products
-------------------------
(A) Raw and Processed Nuts
--------------------------
The Company's principal products are raw and processed nuts. These
products accounted for approximately 87.1%, 87.5% and 86.3% of the
Company's gross sales for fiscal 2002, fiscal 2001 and fiscal
2000, respectively. The nut product line includes peanuts,
almonds, Brazil nuts, pecans, pistachios, filberts, cashews,
English walnuts, black walnuts, pine nuts and macadamia nuts. The
Company's nut products are sold in numerous package styles and
sizes, from poly-cellophane packages, composite cans, vacuum
packed tins, plastic jars and glass jars for retail sales, to
large cases and sacks for bulk sales to industrial, food service
and government customers. In addition, the Company offers its nut
products in a variety of different styles and seasonings,
including natural (with skins), blanched (without skins), oil
roasted, dry roasted, unsalted, honey roasted, butter toffee,
praline and cinnamon toasted. The Company sells its products
domestically to retailers and wholesalers as well as to
industrial, food service and government customers. The Company
also sells certain of its products to foreign customers in the
retail, food service and industrial markets.
2
The Company acquires a substantial portion of its peanut, pecan,
almond and walnut requirements directly from domestic growers.
The balance of the Company's raw nut supply is purchased from
importers and domestic processors. In fiscal 2002, the majority
of the Company's peanuts, pecans and walnuts were shelled by the
Company at its four shelling facilities while the remainder were
purchased shelled from processors and growers. See "Raw Materials
and Supplies" and Item 2 -- "Properties -- Manufacturing
Capability, Technology and Engineering" below.
(B) Peanut Butter
-----------------
The Company manufactures and markets peanut butter in several
sizes and varieties, including creamy, crunchy and natural.
Peanut butter accounted for approximately 4.0%, 3.7% and 3.8% of
the Company's gross sales for fiscal 2002, fiscal 2001 and fiscal
2000, respectively.
(C) Candy and Confections
-------------------------
The Company markets and distributes a wide assortment of candy and
confections, including such items as wrapped hard candy, gummies,
ju-ju's, brand name candies, chocolate peanut butter cups, peanut
clusters, pecan patties and sugarless candies. Candy and
confections accounted for approximately 2.6%, 2.9% and 2.8% of the
Company's gross sales for fiscal 2002, fiscal 2001 and fiscal
2000, respectively. Most of these products are purchased from
various candy manufacturers and sold to retailers in bulk or
retail packages under private labels or the Evon's brand.
(D) Other Products
------------------
The Company also markets and distributes, and in many cases
processes and manufactures, a wide assortment of other food and
snack products. These products accounted for approximately 6.3%,
5.9% and 7.1% of the Company's gross sales for fiscal 2002, fiscal
2001 and fiscal 2000, respectively. These other products include:
natural snacks, trail mixes and chocolate and yogurt coated
products sold to retailers and wholesalers; baking ingredients
(including chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, flaked coconut
and chopped, diced, crushed and sliced nuts) sold to retailers,
wholesalers, industrial and food service customers; bulk food
products sold to retail and food service customers; an assortment
of corn snacks, sunflower seeds, party mixes, sesame sticks and
other sesame snack products sold to retail supermarkets, vending
companies, mass merchandisers and industrial customers; and a wide
variety of toppings for ice cream and yogurt sold to food service
customers.
(iii) Customers
----------------
The Company sells its products to approximately 7,400 retail,
wholesale, industrial, government and food service customers on a
national level. Retailers of the Company's products include
grocery chains, mass merchandisers and membership clubs. The
Company markets many of its products directly to approximately
1,600 retail stores in Illinois and eight other states through its
store-door delivery system discussed below. Wholesale grocery
companies purchase products from the Company for resale to
regional retail grocery chains and convenience stores.
The Company's industrial customers include bakeries, ice cream and
candy manufacturers and other food and snack processors. Food
service customers include hospitals, schools, universities,
airlines, retail and wholesale restaurant businesses and national
food service franchises. In addition, the Company packages and
distributes products manufactured or processed by others. Sales to
Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. accounted for approximately 16% of the
Company's net sales for fiscal 2002. No single customer accounted
for more than 10% of the Company's net sales for fiscal 2001 or
fiscal 2000.
3
(iv) Sales, Marketing and Distribution
----------------------------------------
The Company markets its products through its own sales department
and through a network of over 200 independent brokers and various
independent distributors and suppliers. The Company's sales
department of 58 employees includes 20 regional managers, 4 sales
specialists and 4 telemarketers.
The Company's marketing and promotional campaigns include regional
and national trade shows and limited newspaper advertisements,
including coupons, done from time to time in cooperation with
certain of the Company's retail customers. These programs were
designed to bring new users and to increased consumption in the
snack and baking nut categories. The Company also designs and
manufactures point of purchase displays and bulk food dispensers
for use by certain of its retail customers. These displays, and
other shelving and pegboard displays purchased by the Company, are
installed by Company personnel. The Company believes that
controlling the type, style and format of display fixtures
benefits the customer and ultimately the Company by presenting the
Company's products in a consistent, attractive point of sale
presentation.
The Company distributes its products from its Illinois, Georgia,
California, North Carolina and Texas production facilities and
from public warehouse and distribution facilities located in
various other states. The majority of the Company's products are
shipped from the Company's production, warehouse and distribution
facilities by contract and common carriers.
In Illinois and eight other states, JBSS distributes its products
to approximately 1,600 convenience stores, supermarkets and other
retail customer locations through its store-door delivery system.
Under this system, JBSS uses its own fleet of step-vans to market
and distribute nuts, snacks and candy directly to retail customers
on a store-by-store basis. Presently, the store-door delivery
system consists of approximately 30 route salespeople covering
routes located in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Wisconsin, Ohio,
Minnesota, Michigan, Kentucky and Missouri. District and regional
route managers, as well as sales and marketing personnel operating
out of JBSS's corporate offices, are responsible for monitoring
and managing the route salespeople.
In the Chicago area, JBSS operates two thrift stores at its
production facilities and at four other retail stores. These
stores sell bulk foods and other products produced by JBSS and by
other vendors.
(v) Competition
------------------
Snack food markets are highly competitive. The Company's nuts and
other snack food products compete against products manufactured
and sold by numerous other companies in the snack food industry,
some of which are substantially larger and have greater resources
than the Company. In the nut industry, the Company competes with,
among others, Planters, Ralcorp Holdings, Inc. and numerous
regional snack food processors. Competitive factors in the
Company's markets include price, product quality, customer
service, breadth of product line, brand name awareness, method of
distribution and sales promotion. See "Forward Looking Statements
- -- Factors That May Affect Future Results -- Competitive
Environment" below.
(vi) Raw Materials and Supplies
---------------------------------
The Company purchases nuts from domestic and foreign sources.
Most of the Company's peanuts are purchased from the southeastern
United States and most of its walnuts and almonds are purchased
from California. The Company purchases most of its pecans from
the southern United States and Mexico. Cashew nuts are imported
from India, Africa, Brazil and Southeast Asia. The availability
of nuts is subject to market conditions and crop size fluctuations
caused by weather conditions, plant diseases and other factors
beyond the Company's control. These fluctuations can adversely
impact the Company's profitability. For fiscal 2002,
approximately 30% of the Company's nut purchases were from foreign
sources.
4
The Company generally purchases and shells peanuts, pecans and
walnuts instead of buying shelled nuts from shellers. Due, in
part, to the seasonal nature of the industry, the Company
maintains significant inventories of peanuts, pecans, walnuts and
almonds at certain times of the year, especially in the second and
third quarters of the Company's fiscal year. Fluctuations in the
market price of peanuts, pecans, walnuts, almonds and other nuts
may affect the value of the Company's inventory and thus the
Company's gross profit and gross profit margin. See "General",
"Fiscal 2002 Compared to Fiscal 2001 -- Gross Profit", "Fiscal
2001 Compared to Fiscal 2000 -- Gross Profit" under Item 7 --
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations".
The Company purchases supplies, such as roasting oils, seasonings,
glass jars, plastic jars, labels, composite cans and other
packaging materials from third parties. The Company sponsors a
seed exchange program under which it provides peanut seed to
growers in return for a commitment to repay the dollar value of
that seed, plus interest, in the form of farmer stock (i.e.,
peanuts at harvest). Approximately 80% of the farmer stock
peanuts purchased by the Company in fiscal 2002 were grown from
seed provided by the Company. The Company also contracts for the
growing of a limited number of generations of peanut seeds to
increase seed quality and maintain desired genetic characteristics
of the peanut seed used in processing.
The availability and cost of raw materials for the production of
the Company's products, including peanuts, pecans, walnuts,
almonds, other nuts, dried fruit, coconut and chocolate, are
subject to crop size and yield fluctuations caused by factors
beyond the Company's control, such as weather conditions and plant
diseases. Additionally, the supply of edible nuts and other raw
materials used in the Company's products could be reduced upon a
determination by the USDA or any other government agency that
certain pesticides, herbicides or other chemicals used by growers
have left harmful residues on portions of the crop or that the
crop has been contaminated by aflatoxin or other agents.
(vii) Trademarks and Patents
-----------------------------
The Company markets its products primarily under private labels
and the Fisher, Evon's, Sunshine Country, Flavor Tree, Texas Pride
and Tom Scott brand names, which are registered as trademarks with
the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office as well as in various other
jurisdictions. The Company also owns several patents of various
durations. The Company expects to continue to renew for the
foreseeable future those trademarks that are important to the
Company's business.
(viii) Employees
----------------
As of June 27, 2002, the Company had approximately 1,480 active
employees, including approximately 180 corporate staff employees
and 1,300 production and distribution employees. As a result of
the seasonal nature of the Company's business, the number of
employees peaked to approximately 1,540 in the last four months of
calendar 2001 and dropped to an average of approximately 1,430
during the remainder of fiscal 2002.
(ix) Seasonality
------------------
The Company's business is seasonal. Demand for peanut and other
nut products is highest during the months of October, November and
December. Peanuts, pecans, walnuts and almonds, the Company's
principal raw materials, are primarily purchased between August
and February and are processed throughout the year until the
following harvest. As a result of this seasonality, the Company's
personnel, working capital requirements and inventories peak
during the last four months of the calendar year. See Item 8 --
"Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" and Item 7 --
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations -- General".
5
(x) Backlog
--------------
Because the time between order and shipment is usually less than
three weeks, the Company believes that backlog as of a particular
date is not indicative of annual sales.
(xi) Termination of Federal Peanut Quota Program
--------------------------------------------------
Peanuts are an important part of the Company's product line.
Approximately 50% of the total pounds of products processed
annually by the Company are peanuts, peanut butter and other
products containing peanuts. The production and marketing of
peanuts had been regulated by the USDA under the Agricultural
Adjustment Act of 1938 (the "Agricultural Adjustment Act"). The
Agricultural Adjustment Act, and regulations promulgated
thereunder, supported the peanut crop by: (i) limiting peanut
imports; (ii) limiting the amount of peanuts that American farmers
were allowed to take to the domestic market each year; and (iii)
setting a minimum price that a sheller had to pay for peanuts
which could be sold for domestic consumption. The amount of
peanuts that American farmers could sell each year was determined
by the Secretary of Agriculture and was based upon the prior
year's peanut consumption in the United States. Only peanuts that
qualified under the quota could be sold for domestic food products
and seed. The peanut quota for the 2001 crop year (which ended on
July 31, 2002) was approximately 1.2 million tons. Peanuts in
excess of the quota were called "additional peanuts" and generally
could only be exported or used domestically for crushing into oil
or meal. Regulations permitted additional peanuts to be
domestically processed and exported as finished goods to any
foreign country. The quota support price for the 2001 crop year
was approximately $610 per ton.
The 1996 Farm Bill extended the federal peanut quota program for
peanuts for seven years. The Farm Security and Rural Investment
Act of 2002 (the "2002 Farm Bill") terminated the federal peanut
quota program beginning with the 2002 crop year. The 2002 Farm
Bill replaces the federal peanut quota program with a fixed,
decoupled payment system through the 2011 crop year.
Additionally, among other provisions, the Secretary of Agriculture
may make certain counter-cyclical payments whenever the Secretary
believes that the effective price for peanuts is less than the
target price. The termination of the federal peanut quota program
could significantly affect the supply of, and price for, peanuts.
Although the Company has successfully operated in a market shaped
by the federal peanut quota program for many years, the Company
believes that it will successfully adapt to a market without a
quota program. However, the Company has no experience in
operating in such a peanut market, and no assurances can be given
that the elimination of the federal peanut quota program would not
adversely affect the Company's business. While the Company
believes that its ability to use its raw peanut inventories in its
own processing operations gives it greater protection against
these changes than is possessed by certain competitors whose
operations are limited to either shelling or processing, no
assurances can be given that the elimination of the federal peanut
quota program will not adversely affect the Company's business.
(xii) Operating Hazards and Uninsured Risks
--------------------------------------------
The sale of food products for human consumption involves the risk
of injury to consumers as a result of product contamination or
spoilage, including the presence of foreign objects, substances,
chemicals, aflatoxin and other agents, or residues introduced
during the growing, storage, handling or transportation phases.
Although the Company maintains rigid quality control standards,
inspects its products by visual examination, metal detectors or
electronic monitors at various stages of its shelling and
processing operations for all of its nut and other food products,
permits the USDA to inspect all lots of peanuts shipped to and
from the Company's production facilities, and complies with the
Nutrition Labeling and Education Act by labeling each product that
it sells with labels that disclose the nutritional value and
content of each of the Company's products, no assurance can be
given that some nut or other food products sold by the Company may
not contain or develop harmful substances. The Company currently
maintains product liability insurance of $1 million per occurrence
and umbrella coverage of up to $50 million which management and
the Company's insurance carriers believe to be adequate.

Item 2 - Properties
- -------------------
The Company presently owns or leases seven principal production
facilities. Two of these facilities are located in Elk Grove
Village, Illinois. The first Elk Grove Village facility, the
Busse Road facility, serves as the Company's corporate
headquarters and main production facility. The other Elk Grove
Village facility is located on Arthur Avenue adjacent to the Busse
Road facility. The remaining principal production facilities are
located in Bainbridge, Georgia; Garysburg, North Carolina; Selma,
Texas; Gustine, California; and Arlington Heights, Illinois. The
Company also leases a warehousing facility in Des Plaines,
Illinois. The Company also presently operates thrift stores out
of the Busse Road facility and the Des Plaines facility, and owns
one retail store and leases three additional retail stores in
various Chicago suburbs. In addition, the Company leases space in
public warehouse facilities in various states.
The Company believes that its facilities are generally well
maintained, in good operating condition and adequate for its
present operational needs.

(1) Approximately 240,000 square feet of the Busse Road
facility is leased from the Busse Land Trust under a lease that
expires on May 31, 2015. Under the terms of the lease, the
Company has a right of first refusal and a right of first offer
with respect to this portion of the Busse Road facility. The
remaining 60,000 square feet of space at the Busse Road facility
(the "Addition") was constructed by the Company in 1994 on
property owned by the Busse Land Trust and on property owned by
the Company. Accordingly, (i) the Company and the Busse Land Trust
8
entered into a ground lease with a term beginning January
1, 1995 pursuant to which the Company leases from the Busse Land
Trust the land on which a portion of the Addition is situated
(the "Busse Addition Property"), and (ii) the Company, the Busse
Land Trust and the sole beneficiary of the Busse Land Trust
entered into a party wall agreement effective as of January 1,
1995, which sets forth the respective rights and obligations of
the Company and the Busse Land Trust with respect to the common
wall which separates the existing Busse Road facility and the
Addition. The ground lease has a term that expires on May 31,
2015 (the same date on which the Company's lease for the Busse
Road facility expires). The Company has an option to extend the
term of the ground lease for one five-year term, an option to
purchase the Busse Addition Property at its then appraised fair
market value at any time during the term of the ground lease,
and a right of first refusal with respect to the Busse Addition
Property. See "Compensation Committee Interlocks, Insider
Participation and Certain Transactions -- Lease Arrangements"
contained in the Company's Proxy Statement for the 2002 Annual
Meeting.
(2) The Des Plaines facility is leased under a lease that
expires on October 31, 2010. The Des Plaines facility is also
subject to a mortgage securing a loan from an unrelated third
party lender to the related party lessor in the original
principal amount of approximately $1.6 million. The rights of
the Company under the lease are subject and subordinate to the
rights of the lender. Accordingly, a default by the lessor under
the loan could result in foreclosure on the facility and thereby
adversely affect the Company's leasehold interest. See
"Compensation Committee Interlocks, Insider Participation and
Certain Transactions -- Lease Arrangements" contained in the
Company's Proxy Statement for the 2002 Annual Meeting.
(3) The Bainbridge facility is subject to a mortgage and deed of
trust securing $7.0 million (excluding accrued and unpaid
interest) in industrial development bonds. See Item 7 --
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources".
(4) The Arlington Heights facility is subject to a mortgage
dated September 27, 1995 securing a loan of $2.5 million with a
maturity date of October 1, 2015.
b. Manufacturing Capability, Utilization, Technology and Engineering
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company's principal production facilities are equipped with
modern processing and packaging machinery and equipment. The
physical structure and the layout of the production line at the
Busse Road facility were designed so that peanuts and other nuts
can be processed, jarred and packed in cases for distribution on a
completely automated basis. The facility also has production
lines for chocolate chips, candies, peanut butter and other
products processed or packaged by the Company. This processing
facility is well utilized.
The Selma facility contains the Company's automated pecan shelling
and bulk packaging operation. The facility's pecan shelling
production lines currently have the capacity to shell in excess of
60 million inshell pounds of pecans annually. For fiscal 2002, the
Company processed approximately 48 million inshell pounds of
pecans at the Selma, Texas facility. The Selma facility contained
an almond processing line with the capacity to process over 15
million pounds of almonds annually. For fiscal 2002, the Selma
facility processed approximately 9 million pounds of almonds. The
almond processing line is being relocated to the Gustine facility.
The Selma facility is well utilized.
The Bainbridge facility is located in the largest peanut producing
region in the United States. This facility takes direct delivery
of farmer stock peanuts and cleans, shells, sizes, inspects,
blanches, roasts and packages them for sale to the Company's
customers. The production line at the Bainbridge facility is
almost entirely automated and has the capacity to shell
approximately 120 million inshell pounds of peanuts annually.
During fiscal 2002, the Bainbridge facility shelled approximately
76 million inshell pounds of peanuts.
The Garysburg facility has the capacity to process approximately
40 million inshell pounds of farmer stock peanuts annually. For
fiscal 2002, the Garysburg facility processed approximately 22
million pounds of inshell peanuts.
9
The Gustine facility is used for walnut shelling, processing and
marketing operations. This facility has the capacity to shell
approximately 50 million inshell pounds of walnuts annually. For
fiscal 2002, the Gustine facility shelled approximately 31 million
inshell pounds of walnuts. The almond processing line is being
relocated to the Gustine facility from the Selma facility.
The Arlington Heights facility is used for the production and
packaging the majority of the Company's Fisher Nut products, the
"stand-up pouch" packaging for its Flavor Tree brand products and
for the production and packaging of the Company's sunflower meats.
The Arlington Heights facility is well utilized.
Item 3 -- Legal Proceedings
- ---------------------------
The Company is party to various lawsuits, proceedings and other
matters arising out of the conduct of its business. Currently, it
is management's opinion that the ultimate resolution of these
matters will not have a material adverse effect upon the business,
financial condition or results of operations of the Company.
Item 4 -- Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
- -------------------------------------------------------------
No matter was submitted during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002
to a vote of security holders, through solicitation of proxies or
otherwise.

However, each share of Class A Stock is convertible at the option
of the holder at any time and from time to time (and, upon the
occurrence of certain events specified in the Company's Restated
Certificate of Incorporation, automatically converts) into one
share of Common Stock.
The Common Stock of the Company is quoted on the NASDAQ National

Item 7 -- Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
GENERAL
- -------
The Company's fiscal year ends on the final Thursday of June each
year, and typically consists of fifty-two weeks (four thirteen
week quarters). References herein to fiscal 2002 are to the
fiscal year ended June 27, 2002. References herein to fiscal
2001 are to the fiscal year ended June 28, 2001. The fiscal year
ended June 29, 2000 ("fiscal 2000") consisted of fifty-three
weeks, with the fourth quarter containing fourteen, rather than
thirteen, weeks. As used herein, unless the context otherwise
indicates, the terms "Company" and "JBSS" refer collectively to
John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary.
Effective as of June 25, 1999, Sunshine Nut Co., Inc. and Quantz
Acquisition Co., Inc., two of the Company's three wholly owned
subsidiaries, were merged into and with the Company.
The Company's business is seasonal. Demand for peanut and other
nut products is highest during the months of October, November
and December. Peanuts, pecans, walnuts, almonds and cashews, the
Company's principal raw materials, are purchased primarily during
the period from August to February and are processed throughout
the year. As a result of this seasonality, the Company's
personnel and working capital requirements peak during the last
four months of the calendar year.
14
Also, due primarily to the seasonal nature of the Company's
business, the Company maintains significant inventories of
peanuts, pecans, walnuts, almonds and other nuts at certain times
of the year, especially during the second and third quarters of
the Company's fiscal year. Fluctuations in the market prices of
such nuts may affect the value of the Company's inventory and
thus the Company's profitability. There can be no assurance that
future write-downs of the Company's inventory may not be required
from time to time because of market price fluctuations,
competitive pricing pressures, the effects of various laws or
regulations or other factors. See "Forward Looking Statements --
Factors That May Affect Future Results -- Availability of Raw
Materials and Market Price Fluctuations" and "Forward Looking
Statements -- Factors That May Affect Future Results -
Termination of Federal Peanut Quota Program".
At June 27, 2002, the Company's inventories totaled
approximately $99.5 million compared to approximately $98.6
million at June 28, 2001. While the dollar value of the
inventories is very similar for both years, the June 27, 2002
amount contains significantly higher pounds of inshell pecans on
hand. The average cost per pound for pecans decreased
significantly during fiscal 2002. See "Forward Looking
Statements -- Factors That May Affect Future Results --
Availability of Raw Materials and Market Price Fluctuations."
To enhance consumer awareness of dietary issues
associated with the consumption of peanuts and other nut
products, the Company has taken steps to educate consumers about
the benefits of nut consumption. Also, there have been various
medical studies detailing the healthy attributes of nuts and the
Mediterranean Diet Pyramid promotes the daily consumption of nuts
as part of a healthy diet. The Company has no experience or data
that indicates that the growth in the number of health conscious
consumers will cause a change in nut consumption. Also, over the
last few years there has been some publicity concerning allergic
reactions to peanuts and other nuts. However, the Company has no
experience or data that indicates peanut and other nut related
allergies have affected the Company's business. Furthermore, the
Company does not presently believe that nut related allergies
will have a material adverse affect on the Company's financial
results in the foreseeable future.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- ----------------------------
In preparing our financial statements and accounting for the
underlying transactions and balances, we apply our accounting
policies as disclosed in our Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements. We consider the policies discussed below as critical
to an understanding of our financial statements because their
application places the most significant demands on management's
judgment, with financial reporting results relying on estimation
about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.
Specific risks, if applicable, for these critical accounting
policies are described in the following paragraphs. For a
detailed discussion on the application of these and other
accounting policies, see Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements. Preparation of this Annual Report on Form
10-K requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial
statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from
those estimates.
Accounts Receivable
- -------------------
Accounts receivable are stated at the amounts charged to
customers, less: (i) an allowance for doubtful accounts; (ii) a
reserve for estimated cash discounts; and (iii) a reserve for
customer deductions. The allowance for doubtful accounts is
calculated by specifically identifying customers that are credit
risks. The reserve for estimated cash discounts is estimated
using historical payment patterns. The reserve for customer
deductions represents an estimate of future credit memos that
will be issued to customers.
15
Inventories
- -----------
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out)
or market. Fluctuations in the market price of peanuts, pecans,
walnuts, almonds and other nuts may affect the value of the
Company's inventory and thus the Company's gross profit and gross
profit margin. If market prices move substantially lower, the
Company would record adjustments to write down the carrying
values of inventories to fair market value.
Customer Incentives
- -------------------
The ability to sell to certain retail customers often requires
upfront payments by the Company. Such payments are made pursuant
to contracts that usually stipulate the term of the agreement,
the quantity and type of products to be sold and any exclusivity
requirements. The cost of these payments is initially recorded as
an asset and is amortized on a straight-line basis over the term
of the contract as a reduction in revenues.
Related Party Transactions
- --------------------------
As discussed in Note 7 and Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements, the Company leases space from related
parties and transacts with other related parties in the normal
course of business. These related party transactions are
conducted on an arm's-length basis.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
The following table sets forth the percentage relationship of
certain items to net sales for the periods indicated and the
percentage increase or decrease of such items from fiscal 2001 to
fiscal 2002 and from fiscal 2000 to fiscal 2001.
Percentage of Net Sales Percentage Increase (Decrease)
------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------
Fiscal 2002 Fiscal 2001 Fiscal 2000 Fiscal 2002 vs. 2001 Fiscal 2001 vs. 2000
----------- ----------- ----------- -------------------- --------------------
Net sales 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 2.5% 4.3%
Gross profit 14.1 15.4 15.2 (6.4) 5.5
Selling expenses 6.1 6.6 6.7 (5.4) 3.0
Administrative expenses 2.7 2.7 2.7 4.7 2.9
Income from operations 5.2 6.1 5.8 (12.2) 9.7
Fiscal 2002 Compared to Fiscal 2001
- -----------------------------------
Net Sales. Net sales increased from approximately $334.9 million
for fiscal 2001 to approximately $343.2 million for fiscal 2002,
an increase of approximately $8.4 million or 2.5%. The increase in
net sales was due primarily to higher unit volume sales to the
Company's retail and contract packaging customers, partially
offset by lower unit volume sales to the Company's industrial
customers during the first half of fiscal 2002. The increase in
sales to retail customers was due primarily to increased sales of
private label products, especially to Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. The
decrease in sales to industrial customers was due primarily to
high sales of pecans during the first half of fiscal 2001. The
increase in net sales was accomplished despite lower average
selling prices during the last half of fiscal 2002, due to lower
commodity costs for pecans, cashews and almonds.
Gross Profit. Gross profit in fiscal 2002 decreased 6.4% to
approximately $48.3 million from approximately $51.6 million for
fiscal 2001. Gross profit margin decreased from 15.4% for fiscal
2001 to 14.1% for fiscal 2002. The decrease in gross profit
margin was due primarily to: (i) a decrease in gross profit margin
on sales to industrial customers, (ii) an increase in private label sales
16
to retail customers, which sales generally carry lower
gross profit margins than sales of branded products and (iii) an
increase in sales to contract packaging customers, which sales
generally carry lower margins than sales to the Company's other
customers.
Selling and Administrative Expenses. Selling and
administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased
from 9.3% for fiscal 2001 to 8.9% for fiscal 2002. Selling
expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased from 6.6% for
fiscal 2001 to 6.1% for fiscal 2002. This decrease was due
primarily to the fixed nature of these expenses relative to a
larger revenue base and the Company's efforts to control costs.
Administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales were 2.7% for
both fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2001.
Income from Operations. Due to the factors discussed
above, income from operations decreased from approximately $20.4
million, or 6.1% of net sales, for fiscal 2001 to approximately
$17.9 million, or 5.2% of net sales, for fiscal 2002.
Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased from approximately
$8.4 million for fiscal 2001 to approximately $5.8 million for
fiscal 2002. The decrease in interest expense was due primarily
to: (i) lower average levels of borrowings due to lower average
levels of inventories and (ii) lower interest rates associated
with the Bank Credit Facility, as defined below.
Income Taxes. Income tax expense was approximately $5.0
million, or 39.6% of income before income taxes, for fiscal 2002,
compared to approximately $5.1 million, or 40.0% of income before
income taxes, for fiscal 2001.
Fiscal 2001 Compared to Fiscal 2000
- -----------------------------------
Net Sales. Net sales increased from approximately $320.9
million for fiscal 2000 to approximately $334.9 million for fiscal
2001, an increase of approximately $14.0 million or 4.3%. The
increase in net sales was due primarily to increased unit volume
sales to the Company's contract packaging, industrial and food
service customers. Sales to retail customers increased slightly,
as increases in private label sales were offset by decreases in
sales of branded products.
Gross Profit. Gross profit in fiscal 2001 increased 5.5% to
approximately $51.6 million from approximately $48.9 million for
fiscal 2000. Gross profit margin increased from 15.2% for fiscal
2000 to 15.4% for fiscal 2001. This increase was due primarily to
lower promotional costs (which are recorded as reductions in
revenue) in fiscal 2001 than in fiscal 2000.
Selling and Administrative Expenses. Selling and
administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased
from 9.4% for fiscal 2000 to 9.3% for fiscal 2001. Selling
expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased from 6.7% for
fiscal 2000 to 6.6% for fiscal 2001. This slight decrease was due
primarily to the fixed nature of these expenses relative to a
larger revenue base. Administrative expenses as a percentage of
net sales were 2.7% for both fiscal 2001 and fiscal 2000.
Income from Operations. Due to the factors discussed
above, income from operations increased from approximately $18.6
million, or 5.8% of net sales, for fiscal 2000 to approximately
$20.4 million, or 6.1% of net sales, for fiscal 2001.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased from
approximately $8.0 million for fiscal 2000 to approximately $8.4
million for fiscal 2001. This increase was due primarily to
higher average levels of borrowings for the first three quarters
of fiscal 2001 compared to fiscal 2000 resulting from higher
average levels of inventories during the first three quarters of
fiscal 2001. Interest expense decreased to approximately $1.9
million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001 from approximately
$2.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000. This decrease
was due to lower average levels of borrowings during the quarterly
period combined with lower interest rates on the Bank Credit
Facility, as defined below.
17
Income Taxes. Income tax expense was approximately $5.1
million, or 40.0% of income before income taxes, for fiscal 2001,
compared to approximately $4.5 million, or 40.0% of income before
income taxes, for fiscal 2000
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
General
- -------
During fiscal 2002, the Company continued to finance its
activities through a bank revolving credit facility entered into
on March 31, 1998 and last amended on May 20, 2002 (the "Bank
Credit Facility"), $35.0 million borrowed under a long-term
financing facility originally entered into by the Company in 1992
(the "Long-Term Financing Facility") and $25.0 million borrowed on
September 12, 1995 under a long-term financing arrangement (the
"Additional Long-Term Financing").
Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately
$24.4 million for fiscal 2002 compared to approximately $18.3
million for fiscal 2001. The increase in cash provided by
operating activities was due primarily to improved working capital
management. The largest component of net cash used in investing
activities during fiscal 2002 was approximately $4.6 million in
capital expenditures, compared to approximately $8.4 million
during fiscal 2001. The decrease in capital expenditures was due
primarily to the expansion of the Company's walnut shelling
operations at its Gustine, California facility during fiscal 2001.
Notes payable decreased to approximately $23.5 million at June
27, 2002 from approximately $37.5 million at June 28, 2001.
During both fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2001, the Company repaid
approximately $5.7 million of long-term debt.
Financing Arrangements
- ----------------------
The Bank Credit Facility is comprised of (i) a working
capital revolving loan which provides working capital financing of
up to approximately $62.3 million, in the aggregate, and matures,
as amended, on May 31, 2003, and (ii) a $7.7 million letter of
credit (the "IDB Letter of Credit") to secure the industrial
development bonds described below which matures on June 1, 2006.
The IDB Letter of Credit replaced a prior letter of credit that
matured on June 1, 2002. Borrowings under the working capital
revolving loan accrue interest at a rate (the weighted average of
which was 3.20% at June 27, 2002) determined pursuant to a formula
based on the agent bank's quoted rate and the Eurodollar Interbank
rate.
Of the total $35.0 million of borrowings under the Long-Term
Financing Facility, $25.0 million matures on August 15, 2004,
bears interest at rates ranging from 7.34% to 9.18% per annum
payable quarterly, and requires equal semi-annual principal
installment payments based on a ten-year amortization schedule.
The remaining $10.0 million of this indebtedness matures on May
15, 2006, bears interest at the rate of 9.16% per annum payable
quarterly, and requires semi-annual principal installment payments
of $475 thousand through maturity. As of June 27, 2002, there was
approximately $10.1 million total principal amount outstanding
under the Long-Term Financing Facility.
The Additional Long-Term Financing has a maturity date of
September 1, 2005 and (i) as to $10.0 million of the total $25.0
million of borrowings thereunder, bears interest at an annual rate
of 8.30% payable semiannually and requires annual principal
payments of approximately $1.4 million each through maturity, and
(ii) as to the other $15.0 million of total borrowings thereunder,
bears interest at an annual rate of 9.38% payable semiannually and
requires annual principal payments of $5.0 million beginning on
September 1, 2003 through maturity. As of June 27, 2002, the
total principal amount outstanding under the Additional Long-Term
Financing was approximately $20.7 million.
The terms of the Company's financing facilities, as amended,
include certain restrictive covenants that, among other things:
(i) require the Company to maintain specified financial ratios;
(ii) limit the Company's annual capital expenditures; and (iii)
require that Jasper B. Sanfilippo (the Company's Chairman of the Board
and Chief Executive Officer) and Mathias A. Valentine (a director and the
18
Company's President) together with their
respective immediate family members and certain trusts created for
the benefit of their respective sons and daughters, continue to
own shares representing the right to elect a majority of the
directors of the Company. In addition, (i) the Long-Term
Financing Facility limits the Company's payment of dividends to a
cumulative amount not to exceed 25% of the Company's cumulative
net income from and after January 1, 1996, (ii) the Additional
Long-Term Financing limits cumulative dividends to the sum of (a)
50% of the Company's cumulative net income (or minus 100% of the
Company's cumulative net loss) from and after January 1, 1995 to
the date the dividend is declared, (b) the cumulative amount of
the net proceeds received by the Company during the same period
from any sale of its capital stock, and (c) $5.0 million, and
(iii) the Bank Credit Facility limits dividends to the lesser of
(a) 25% of net income for the previous fiscal year, or (b) $5.0
million, and prohibits the Company from redeeming shares of
capital stock. As of June 27, 2002, the Company was in compliance
with all restrictive covenants, as amended, under its financing
facilities.
The Company has $7.0 million in aggregate principal amount
of industrial development bonds outstanding which was used to
finance the acquisition, construction and equipping of the
Company's Bainbridge, Georgia facility (the "IDB Financing"). The
bonds bear interest payable semiannually at 4.00% (which was reset
on June 1, 2002) through May 2006. On June 1, 2006, and on each
subsequent interest reset date for the bonds, the Company is
required to redeem the bonds at face value plus any accrued and
unpaid interest, unless a bondholder elects to retain his or her
bonds. Any bonds redeemed by the Company at the demand of a
bondholder on the reset date are required to be remarketed by the
underwriter of the bonds on a "best efforts" basis. Funds for the
redemption of bonds on the demand of any bondholder are required
to be obtained from the following sources in the following order
of priority: (i) funds supplied by the Company for redemption;
(ii) proceeds from the remarketing of the bonds; (iii) proceeds
from a drawing under the IDB Letter of Credit; or (iv) in the
event funds from the foregoing sources are insufficient, a
mandatory payment by the Company. Drawings under the IDB Letter
of Credit to redeem bonds on the demand of any bondholder are
payable in full by the Company upon demand of the lenders under
the Bank Credit Facility. In addition, the Company is required to
redeem the bonds in varying annual installments, ranging from
approximately $0.3 million in fiscal 2003 to approximately $0.8
million in fiscal 2017. The Company is also required to redeem
the bonds in certain other circumstances; for example, within 180
days after any determination that interest on the bonds is
taxable. The Company has the option, subject to certain
conditions, to redeem the bonds at face value plus accrued
interest, if any.
Capital Expenditures
- --------------------
For fiscal 2002, capital expenditures were approximately $4.6
million. The Company believes that capital expenditures for
fiscal 2003 will be in the $8.0 - $9.0 million range as
processing capacities are increased, primarily at the Gustine
facility.
Capital Resources
- -----------------
As of June 27, 2002, the Company had approximately $37.3 million
of available credit under the Bank Credit Facility. Scheduled
long-term debt payments for fiscal 2003 are approximately $5.7
million. Scheduled operating lease payments are approximately
$0.6 million. The Company believes that cash flow from operating
activities and funds available under the Bank Credit Facility will
be sufficient to meet working capital requirements and anticipated
capital expenditures for the foreseeable future.
19
Contractual Cash Obligations
- ----------------------------
At June 27, 2002, the Company had the following contractual cash
obligations (amounts in thousands):

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
- --------------------------------
For the year ended June 27, 2002, the Company adopted certain
matters addressed in Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") 00-14,
"Accounting for Certain Sales Incentives", and EITF 00-25,
"Vendor Income Statement Characterization of Consideration Paid
to a Reseller of the Vendor's Products". Certain costs, which
were recorded as selling and administrative expenses, are now
recorded as a reduction in revenue. Similar reclassifications
have been made to prior period comparative information. These
reclassifications were not material and had no impact on the
Company's net income or financial position.
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued SFAS 141, "Business Combinations", and SFAS 142, "Goodwill
and Other Intangible Assets". SFAS 141 requires that all
business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 be accounted
for under the purchase method. With the adoption of SFAS 142,
goodwill is no longer subject to amortization over its estimated
useful life. Instead, goodwill will be subject to at least an
annual assessment for impairment by applying a fair-value-based
test. In addition, under the new rules, acquired intangible
assets will be separately recognized if the benefit of the
intangible asset is obtained through contractual or other legal
rights, or if the intangible asset can be sold, transferred,
licensed, rented or exchanged, regardless of the acquirer's
intent to do so. The provisions of SFAS 142 must be applied with
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Management is
currently assessing the impact, if any, of this standard. The
Company will adopt SFAS 142 beginning June 28, 2002. Any
adjustments arising from the initial impairment assessment would
be reported as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting
principle.
In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 143, "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations". This statement requires that the fair
value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be
recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable
estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset
retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of
the long-lived asset. SFAS 143 will become effective in the first
quarter of fiscal 2003. Management is currently assessing the
impact, if any, of this standard.
In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". This statement
provides a single, comprehensive accounting model for impairment
and disposal of long-lived assets and discontinued operations.
SFAS 144 will become effective in the first quarter of fiscal
2003. Management is currently assessing the impact, if any, of
this standard.
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS 146, "Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities". This statement
addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated
with exit or disposal activities. SFAS 146 will become effective
in the third quarter of fiscal 2003.
20
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
- --------------------------
The statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, and
in the Chairman's letter to stockholders accompanying the Annual
Report on Form 10-K delivered to stockholders, that are not
historical (including statements concerning the Company's
expectations regarding market risk) are "forward looking
statements". These forward looking statements, which generally
are followed (and therefore identified) by a cross reference to
"Factors That May Affect Future Results" or are identified by the
use of forward looking words and phrases such as "intend", "may",
"believes" and "expects", represent the Company's present
expectations or beliefs concerning future events. The Company
cautions that such statements are qualified by important factors
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
in the forward looking statements, including the factors
described below under "Factors That May Affect Future Results",
as well as the timing and occurrence (or non-occurrence) of
transactions and events which may be subject to circumstances
beyond the Company's control. Consequently, results actually
achieved may differ materially from the expected results included
in these statements.
Factors That May Affect Future Results
- --------------------------------------
Availability of Raw Materials and Market Price Fluctuations
- -----------------------------------------------------------
The availability and cost of raw materials for the production of
the Company's products, including peanuts, pecans and other nuts
are subject to crop size and yield fluctuations caused by factors
beyond the Company's control, such as weather conditions and plant
diseases. Additionally, the supply of edible nuts and other raw
materials used in the Company's products could be reduced upon a
determination by the United States Department of Agriculture (the
"USDA") or other government agency that certain pesticides,
herbicides or other chemicals used by growers have left harmful
residues on portions of the crop or that the crop has been
contaminated by aflatoxin or other agents. Shortages in the
supply and resulting increases in the prices of nuts and other raw
materials used by the Company in its products (to the extent that
cost increases cannot be passed on to customers) could have an
adverse impact on the Company's profitability. Furthermore,
fluctuations in the market prices of nuts may affect the value of
the Company's inventories and the Company's profitability. The
Company has significant inventories of nuts that would be
adversely affected by any decrease in the market price of such raw
materials. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations -- General."
Competitive Environment
- -----------------------
The Company operates in a highly competitive environment. The
Company's principal products compete against food and snack
products manufactured and sold by numerous regional and national
companies, some of which are substantially larger and have greater
resources than the Company, such as Planters and Ralcorp Holdings,
Inc. The Company also competes with other shellers in the
industrial market and with regional processors in the retail and
wholesale markets. In order to maintain or increase its market
share, the Company must continue to price its products
competitively. This competitive pricing may lower revenue per
unit and cause declines in gross margin, if the Company is unable
to increase unit volumes as well as reduce its costs.
Fixed Price Commitments
- -----------------------
From time to time, the Company enters into fixed price commitments
with its customers. Such commitments typically represent
approximately 10% of the Company's annual net sales and are
normally entered into after the Company's cost to acquire the nut
products necessary to satisfy the fixed price commitment is
substantially fixed. However, the Company expects to continue to
enter into fixed price commitments with respect to certain of its
nut products prior to fixing its acquisition cost when, in
management's judgment, market or crop harvest conditions so
warrant. To the extent the Company does so, these fixed price
commitments may result in losses. Historically, however, such
losses have generally been offset by gains on other fixed price
commitments. However, there can be no assurance that losses from
fixed price commitments may not have a material adverse effect on
the Company's results of operations.
21
Termination of Federal Peanut Quota Program
- -------------------------------------------
Peanuts are an important part of the Company's product line.
Approximately 50% of the total pounds of products processed
annually by the Company are peanuts, peanut butter and other
products containing peanuts. The production and marketing of
peanuts had been regulated by the USDA under the Agricultural
Adjustment Act of 1938 (the "Agricultural Adjustment Act"). The
Agricultural Adjustment Act, and regulations promulgated
thereunder, supported the peanut crop by: (i) limiting peanut
imports; (ii) limiting the amount of peanuts that American farmers
were allowed to take to the domestic market each year; and (iii)
setting a minimum price that a sheller had to pay for peanuts
which could be sold for domestic consumption. The amount of
peanuts that American farmers could sell each year was determined
by the Secretary of Agriculture and was based upon the prior
year's peanut consumption in the United States. Only peanuts that
qualified under the quota could be sold for domestic food products
and seed. The peanut quota for the 2001 crop year (which ended on
July 31, 2002) was approximately 1.2 million tons. Peanuts in
excess of the quota were called "additional peanuts" and generally
could only be exported or used domestically for crushing into oil
or meal. Regulations permitted additional peanuts to be
domestically processed and exported as finished goods to any
foreign country. The quota support price for the 2001 crop year
was approximately $610 per ton.
The 1996 Farm Bill extended the federal peanut quota program for
peanuts for seven years. The Farm Security and Rural Investment
Act of 2002 (the "2002 Farm Bill") terminated the federal peanut
quota program beginning with the 2002 crop year. The 2002 Farm
Bill replaces the federal peanut quota program with a fixed,
decoupled payment system through the 2011 crop year.
Additionally, among other provisions, the Secretary of Agriculture
may make certain counter-cyclical payments whenever the Secretary
believes that the effective price for peanuts is less than the
target price. The termination of the federal peanut quota program
could significantly affect the supply of, and price for, peanuts.
Although the Company has successfully operated in a market shaped
by the federal peanut quota program for many years, the Company
believes that it will adapt to a market without a quota program.
However, the Company has no experience in operating in such a
peanut market, and no assurances can be given that the elimination
of the federal peanut quota program would not adversely affect the
Company's business. While the Company believes that its ability
to use its raw peanut inventories in its own processing operations
gives it greater protection against these changes than is
possessed by certain competitors whose operations are limited to
either shelling or processing, no assurances can be given that the
elimination of the federal peanut quota program will not adversely
affect the Company's business.
Item 7A -- Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company has not entered into transactions using derivative
financial instruments. The Company believes that its exposure to
market risk related to its other financial instruments (which are
the debt instruments under "Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and
Capital Resources") is not material.
Item 8 -- Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
- -----------------------------------------------------

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollars in thousands, except per share data)
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- ----------------------------------------
Basis of consolidation
- ----------------------
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of John B.
Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary (collectively,
"JBSS" or the "Company"). Intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated. Certain prior years' amounts have been
reclassified to conform with the current year's presentation. On June
25, 1999, the Company dissolved two of its three wholly owned
subsidiaries, Sunshine Nut Co., Inc. and Quantz Acquisition Co., Inc.
and merged such subsidiaries into John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc.
Nature of business
- ------------------
The Company processes and sells shelled and inshell nuts and other
snack foods in both retail and wholesale markets. The Company has
plants located throughout the United States. Revenues are generated
from sales to a variety of customers, including several major
retailers and the U.S. government. The related accounts receivable
from sales are unsecured.
Revenue recognition
- -------------------
The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and
has been earned. Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of
an arrangement exists, the product has been delivered and legal title
and all risks of ownership have been transferred, sales terms are
complete, customer acceptance has occurred and payment is reasonably
assured.
Accounts Receivable
- -------------------
Accounts receivable are stated at the amounts charged to customers,
less: (i) an allowance for doubtful accounts; (ii) a reserve for
estimated cash discounts; and (iii) a reserve for customer
deductions. The allowance for doubtful accounts is calculated by
specifically identifying customers that are credit risks. The reserve
for estimated cash discounts is estimated using historical payment
patterns. The reserve for customer deductions represents an estimate
of future credit memos that will be issued to customers.
Inventories
- -----------
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or
market. The value of inventories may be impacted by market price
fluctuations.
Customer Incentives
- -------------------
The ability to sell to certain retail customers often requires
upfront payments by the Company. Such payments are made pursuant to
contracts that usually stipulate the term of the agreement, the
quantity and type of products to be sold and any exclusivity
requirements. The cost of these payments is initially recorded as an
asset and is amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the
contract. Total customer incentives included in the "Miscellaneous
assets" and "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" captions are
$3,399 at June 27, 2002 and $2,168 at June 28, 2001. Amortization
expense, which is recorded as a reduction in revenues, was $1,865,
$1,528 and $3,095 for the years ended June 27, 2002, June 28, 2001
and June 29, 2000, respectively.
Properties
- ----------
Properties are stated at cost. Cost is depreciated using the
straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
buildings -- 30 to 40 years, machinery and equipment -- 5 to 10
years, furniture and leasehold improvements -- 5 to 10 years and
vehicles -- 3 to 5 years.
The cost and accumulated depreciation of assets sold or retired are
removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is
recognized currently. Maintenance and repairs are charged to
operations as incurred.
29
Certain lease transactions relating to the financing of buildings are
accounted for as capital leases, whereby the present value of future
rental payments, discounted at the interest rate implicit in the
lease, is recorded as a liability. A corresponding amount is
capitalized as the cost of the assets and is amortized on a straight-
line basis over the estimated lives of the assets or over the lease
terms which range from 20 to 30 years, whichever is shorter. See also
Note 7.
Income taxes
- ------------
The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability
approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and
liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that
have been reported in the Company's financial statements or tax
returns. In estimating future tax consequences, the Company
considers all expected future events other than changes in tax law or
rates.
Fair value of financial instruments
- -----------------------------------
Based on borrowing rates presently available to the Company under
similar borrowing arrangements, the Company believes the recorded
amount of its long-term debt obligations approximates fair market
value. The carrying amount of the Company's other financial
instruments approximates their estimated fair value based on market
prices for the same or similar type of financial instruments.
Significant customers
- ---------------------
The highly competitive nature of the Company's business provides an
environment for the loss of customers and the opportunity for new
customers. Net sales to Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. represented
approximately 16% of the Company's net sales for the year ended June
27, 2002.
Management estimates
- --------------------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
Goodwill and other long-lived assets
- ------------------------------------
Goodwill, which represents the excess purchase price over the fair
value of net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired, is
amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 15 to 20
years. Other intangible assets, which represent amounts assigned at
the time of a purchase acquisition, consist of patents and were
amortized over 6 years and became fully amortized during the year
ended June 28, 2001.
The Company reviews the carrying value of goodwill and other long-
lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be
recoverable. This review is performed by comparing estimated
undiscounted future cash flows from use and eventual disposition of
the asset to the recorded value of the asset.
Recent accounting pronouncements
- --------------------------------
For the year ended June 27, 2002, the Company adopted certain matters
addressed in Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") 00-14, "Accounting
for Certain Sales Incentives," and EITF 00-25, "Vendor Income
Statement Characterization of Consideration Paid to a Reseller of the
Vendor's Products". Certain costs, which were recorded as selling and
administrative expenses, are now recorded as a reduction in revenue.
Similar reclassifications have been made to prior period comparative
information. These reclassifications were not material and had no
impact on the Company's net income or financial position.
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued SFAS 141, "Business Combinations", and SFAS 142, "Goodwill and
Other Intangible Assets". SFAS 141 requires that all
30
business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 be accounted for under
the purchase method. With the adoption of SFAS 142, goodwill is no
longer subject to amortization over its estimated useful life.
Instead, goodwill will be subject to at least an annual assessment
for impairment by applying a fair-value-based test. In addition,
under the new rules, acquired intangible assets will be separately
recognized if the benefit of the intangible asset is obtained through
contractual or other legal rights, or if the intangible asset can be
sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged, regardless of the
acquirer's intent to do so. The provisions of SFAS 142 must be
applied with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The
Company will adopt SFAS 142 beginning June 28, 2002. Management is
currently assessing the impact, if any, of this standard. Any
adjustments arising from the initial impairment assessment would be
reported as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting
principle.
In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 143, "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations". This statement requires that the fair value
of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the
period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value
can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as
part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. SFAS 143 will
become effective in the first quarter of fiscal 2003. Management is
currently assessing the impact, if any, of this standard.
In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". This statement provides
a single, comprehensive accounting model for impairment and disposal
of long-lived assets and discontinued operations. SFAS 144 will
become effective in the first quarter of fiscal 2003. Management is
currently assessing the impact, if any, of this standard.
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS 146, "Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities". This statement
addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated
with exit or disposal activities. SFAS 146 will become effective in
the third quarter of fiscal 2003.
NOTE 2 - EARNINGS PER SHARE
- ---------------------------
Earnings per common share is calculated using the weighted average
number of shares of Common Stock and Class A Common Stock outstanding
during the period. The following table presents the required
earnings per share disclosures:

NOTE 3 - COMMON STOCK
- ---------------------
The Company's Class A Common Stock, $.01 par value (the "Class A
Stock"), has cumulative voting rights with respect to the election of
those directors which the holders of Class A Stock are entitled to
elect, and 10 votes per share on all other matters on which holders
of the Company's Class A Stock and Common Stock are entitled to vote.
In addition, each share of Class A Stock is convertible at the
option of the holder at any time into one share of Common Stock and
automatically converts into one share of Common Stock upon any sale
or transfer other than to related individuals. Each share of the
Company's Common Stock, $.01 par value (the "Common Stock") has
noncumulative voting rights of one vote per share. The Class A Stock
and the Common Stock are entitled to share equally, on a share-for-
share basis, in any cash dividends declared by the Board of
Directors, and the holders of the Common Stock are entitled to elect
25% of the members comprising the Board of Directors.

======== ========
On March 31, 1998, the Company entered into a new unsecured credit
facility, with certain banks, totaling $70,000 (the "Bank Credit
Facility"). The Bank Credit Facility, as amended, is comprised of
(i) a working capital revolving loan, which provides for working
capital financing of up to approximately $62,343, in the aggregate,
and matures on May 31, 2003, and (ii) a $7,657 standby letter of
credit, which matures on June 1, 2006. This standby letter of credit
replaced a prior standby letter of credit that matured on June 1,
2002. Borrowings under the working capital revolving loan accrue
interest at a rate (the weighted average of which was 3.20% at June
27, 2002) determined pursuant to a formula based on the agent bank's
quoted rate and the Eurodollar Interbank Rate. The standby letter of
credit replaced a prior letter of credit securing certain industrial
development bonds that financed the original acquisition,
construction, and equipping of the Company's Bainbridge, Georgia
facility.
The Bank Credit Facility, as amended, includes certain restrictive
covenants that, among other things: (i) require the Company to
maintain a minimum tangible net worth; (ii) comply with specified
ratios; (iii) limit annual capital expenditures to the greater of
$7,500 or an amount calculated using a specified ratio; (iv) restrict
dividends to the lesser of 25% of net income for the previous fiscal
year or $5,000; (v) prohibit the Company from redeeming shares of
capital stock; and (vi) require that certain officers and
stockholders of the Company, together with their respective family
members and certain trusts created for the benefits of their
respective children, continue to own shares representing the right to
elect a majority of the directors of the Company. As of June 27,
2002, the Company was in compliance with all restrictive covenants,
as amended, under the Bank Credit Facility.

Total long-term debt $40,421 $39,109
======= =======
JBSS financed the construction of a peanut shelling plant with
industrial development bonds in 1987. On June 1, 1997, the Company
remarketed the bonds, resetting the interest rate at 5.375% through
May 2002, and at a market rate to be determined thereafter. On June
1, 2002, the Company remarketed the bonds, resetting the interest rate
at 4% through May 2006, and at a market rate to be determined
thereafter. On June 1, 2006, and on each subsequent interest reset
date for the bonds, the Company is required to redeem the bonds at
face value plus any accrued and unpaid interest, unless a bondholder
elects to retain his or her bonds. Any bonds redeemed by the Company
at the demand of a bondholder on the reset date are required to be
remarketed by the underwriter of the bonds on a "best efforts" basis.
The agreement requires the Company to redeem the bonds in varying
annual installments, ranging from $250 to $780 annually through 2017.
The Company is also required to redeem the bonds in certain other
circumstances, for example, within 180 days after any determination
that interest on the bonds is taxable. The Company has the option at
any time, however, subject to certain conditions, to redeem the bonds
at face value plus accrued interest, if any.
On September 29, 1992, the Company entered into a long-term financing
facility with a major insurance company (the "Long-Term Financing
Facility") which provided financing to the Company evidenced by
promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $14,000 (the
"Initial Financing"). The Initial Financing was comprised of (i) a
$4,000 7.87% Senior Secured Term Note due 2004 (the "Series A Note"),
(ii) a $6,000 8.22% Senior Secured Term Note due 2004 (the "Series B
Note"), and (iii) a $4,000 8.22% Senior Secured Term Note due 2004
(the "Series C Note"). In addition, the Long-Term Financing Facility
included a shelf facility providing for the issuance by the Company of
additional promissory notes with an aggregate original principal
amount of up to $11,000 (the "Shelf Facility"). On January 15, 1993,
the Company borrowed $3,000 under the Shelf Facility evidenced by an
8.33% Senior Secured Term Note due 2004 (the "Series D Note"). On
September 15, 1993, the Company borrowed the remaining $8,000
available under the Shelf Facility evidenced by a 6.49% Senior Secured
Term Note due 2004 (the "Series E Note").
34
On October 19, 1993, the Long-Term Financing Facility was amended to
provide for an additional shelf facility providing for the issuance by
the Company of additional promissory notes with an aggregate original
principal amount of $10,000 and to terminate and release all liens and
security interests in Company properties. On June 23, 1994, the
Company borrowed $10,000 under the additional shelf facility evidenced
by an $8,000 8.31% Series F Senior Note due May 15, 2006 (the "Series
F-1 Note") and a $2,000 8.31% Series F Senior Note due May 15, 2006
(the "Series F-2 Note").
Effective January 1, 1997, the interest rates on each promissory note
comprising the Long-Term Financing Facility were increased by 0.85%,
due to the Company not meeting the required ratio of (a) net income
plus interest expense to (b) senior funded debt for the year ended
December 31, 1996.
The Long-Term Financing Facility includes certain restrictive
covenants that, among other things: (i) require the Company to
maintain specified financial ratios; (ii) require the Company to
maintain a minimum tangible net worth; (iii) restrict dividends to a
maximum of 25% of cumulative net income from and after January 1, 1995
to the date the dividend is declared; and (iv) require that certain
officers and stockholders of the Company, together with their
respective family members and certain trusts created for the benefits
of their respective children, continue to own shares representing the
right to elect a majority of the directors of the Company. As of June
27, 2002, the Company was in compliance with all restrictive
covenants, as amended, under the Long-Term Financing Facility.
On September 12, 1995, the Company borrowed an additional $25,000
under an unsecured long-term financing arrangement (the "Additional
Long-Term Financing"). The Additional Long-Term Financing has a
maturity date of September 1, 2005 and (i) as to $10,000 of the
principal amount thereof, bears interest at an annual rate of 8.30%
and requires annual principal payments of approximately $1,429 through
maturity, and (ii) as to the other $15,000 of the principal amount
thereof (which is subordinated to the Company's other debt
facilities), bears interest at an annual rate of 9.38% and requires
annual principal payments of $5,000 beginning on September 1, 2003
through maturity.
The Additional Long-Term Financing includes certain restrictive
covenants that, among other things: (i) require the Company to
maintain specified financial ratios; (ii) require the Company to
maintain a minimum tangible net worth; and (iii) limit cumulative
dividends to the sum of (a) 50% of the Company's cumulative net income
(or minus 100% of a cumulative net loss) from and after January 1,
1995 to the date the dividend is declared, (b) the cumulative amount
of the net proceeds received by the Company during the same period
from any sale of its capital stock, and (c) $5,000. As of June 27,
2002, the Company was in compliance with all restrictive covenants, as
amended, under the Additional Long-Term Financing.

obligations, are as follows for the years ending:

Compensation, the effect on the Company's net income for the years ended
June 27, 2002, June 28, 2001 and June 29, 2000 would not have been
significant.
In October 1991, JBSS adopted a stock option plan (the "1991 Stock
Option Plan") which became effective on December 10, 1991 and was
terminated early by the Board of Directors on February 28, 1995.
Pursuant to the terms of the 1991 Stock Option Plan, options to purchase
up to 350,000 shares of Common Stock could be awarded to certain
executives and key employees of JBSS and its subsidiaries. The exercise
price of the options was determined as set forth in the 1991 Stock
Option Plan by the Board of Directors. The exercise price for the stock
options was at least fair market value with the exception of
nonqualified stock options which had an exercise price equal to at least
33% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant.
Except as set forth in the 1991 Stock Option Plan, options expire upon
termination of employment. All of the options granted were intended to
qualify as incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of
the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code").
The termination of the 1991 Stock Option Plan, effective February 28,
1995, did not affect options granted under the 1991 Stock Option Plan
which remained outstanding as of the effective date of termination.
Accordingly, the unexercised options outstanding under the 1991 Stock
Option Plan at June 27, 2002 will continue to be governed by the terms
of the 1991 Stock Option Plan.

At the Company's annual meeting of stockholders on May 2, 1995, the
Company's stockholders approved, and the Company adopted, effective as of
March 1, 1995, a new stock option plan (the "1995 Equity Incentive Plan")
to replace the 1991 Stock Option Plan. The 1995 Equity Incentive Plan
was terminated early by the Board of Directors on August 27, 1998.
Pursuant to the terms of the 1995 Equity Incentive Plan, options to
purchase up to 200,000 shares of Common Stock could be awarded to certain
key employees and "outside directors" (i.e. directors who are not
employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries). The exercise price
of the options was determined as set forth in the 1995 Equity Incentive
Plan by the Board of Directors. The exercise price for the stock options
was at least the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of
grant, with the exception of nonqualified stock options which had an
exercise price equal to at least 50% of the fair market value of the
Common Stock on the date of grant. Except as set forth in the 1995
Equity Incentive Plan, options expire upon termination of employment or
directorship. The options granted under the 1995 Equity Incentive Plan
are exercisable 25% annually commencing on the first anniversary date of
grant and become fully exercisable on the fourth anniversary date of
grant. All of the options granted, except those granted to outside
directors, were intended to qualify as incentive stock options within the
meaning of Section 422 of the Code.
The termination of the 1995 Equity Incentive Plan, effective August 27,
1998, did not affect options granted under the 1995 Equity Incentive Plan
which remained outstanding as of the effective date of termination.
Accordingly, the unexercised options outstanding under the 1995 Equity
Incentive Plan at June 27, 2002 will continue to be governed by the terms
of the 1995 Equity Incentive Plan.
