NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE A - MERGER AGREEMENT

On April 10, 2001, Michael Foods, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Michael Foods”, “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”) was acquired in a transaction (the “Merger”) led by an investor group comprised of a management group led by Michael Foods’ Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, Gregg Ostrander, affiliates of Jeffrey Michael, a member of the Predecessor’s Board of Directors, and affiliates of two private equity investment firms, Vestar Capital Partners and Goldner Hawn Johnson & Morrison Incorporated, (collectively, “M-Foods Investors, LLC”). Under the terms of the Merger agreement, all outstanding shares of Michael Foods common stock were converted into the right to receive $30.10 per share in cash, or value equal thereto, and all outstanding stock options were converted into the right to receive, in cash, $30.10 per share reduced by the exercise price per share for all shares subject to such stock options. The purchase of the outstanding shares was financed through new equity financing of approximately $175,000,000, a senior secured credit facility of up to $470,000,000 at market-based variable interest rates (effective rate of approximately 6.8% as of June 30, 2002), and $200,000,000 of senior subordinated notes at an 11.75% annual interest rate. As a result of the Merger, the stock of pre-merger Michael Foods (“Predecessor”) is no longer publicly traded and, therefore, earnings per share calculations are no longer included for financial statement presentation.

Immediately after the close of the Merger, we contributed the assets of our Dairy division into two limited liability corporations, M-Foods Dairy, LLC and M-Foods Dairy TXCT, LLC (collectively, the “Dairy LLCs”) and in exchange received voting preferred and voting common units from these entities equal to the fair value of the net assets contributed, which collectively were approximately $35,800,000. The preferred units issued to us have an annual 10% preferred return guarantee and represent 100% of the preferred units issued and outstanding. In addition, we received 5% of the common units issued by the Dairy LLCs, with the common units held by the Company representing 100% of the voting common units issued and outstanding. These common units have a stated value of $25,000. The remaining 95% of the common units, which are non-voting, are owned by M-Foods Dairy Holdings, LLC, which is owned by the same owners or affiliates of such owners, in the same proportion, as the unit holders of M-Foods Investors, LLC. The common unit interests owned by M-Foods Dairy Holdings, LLC were issued in exchange for $475,000 and are reflected as non-controlling interest in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2002.

For ease of presentation, the Merger was accounted for as if it had occurred on April 1, 2001. Management determined that results of operations were not significant and no material transactions occurred during the period from April 1 through April 9, 2001. Our consolidated financial statements have been presented on a comparative basis with the Predecessor’s historical consolidated financial statements prior to the date of Merger. Different bases of accounting have been used to prepare the Company and Predecessor consolidated financial statements. The primary differences relate to additional interest expense for new debt and depreciation and amortization of fixed assets and other intangible assets recorded at fair value at the date of Merger.

For accounting purposes the Merger was considered a leveraged buyout. The total purchase price of approximately $562,881,000 was allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities based on their fair values at April 1, 2001, net of the deemed dividend. These allocations were based on a valuation by a third party appraisal firm. The allocation of the purchase price was as follows:

Working capital	$	88,663,000
Property, plant & equipment	307,544,000
Other assets	42,816,000
Goodwill	347,537,000
Long-term debt	588,426,000
Other liabilities	51,474,000

In connection with the Merger, the Predecessor incurred transaction expenses of approximately $26,600,000 associated with the Merger and change-in-control provisions of various compensation, debt and other agreements, which have been reflected in the Predecessor financial statements. These transaction expenses include the extraordinary item related to the early extinguishment of debt resulting from the change-in-control. In addition, we incurred other merger related and debt issuance costs of approximately $40,000,000, which have been capitalized as direct costs of the Merger and deferred financing costs in our consolidated balance sheet.

The following unaudited pro forma net sales and net earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2001 are derived from the application of pro forma adjustments to the Predecessor’s historical statement of earnings, and assumes the Merger had occurred on January 1, 2001. The pro forma net earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2001 is also adjusted for goodwill amortization determined in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 142 (see Note C). The net sales and net earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2002 represent actual results for the period.

	Six months ended
	June 30, 2002		June 30, 2001
Net sales	$	568,182,000	$	570,736,000
Net earnings before extraordinary item	12,675,000		6,975,000

NOTE B - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

We utilize, and the Predecessor utilized, a fiscal year consisting of either 52 or 53 weeks, ending on the Saturday nearest to December 31 each year. The quarters ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 each included thirteen weeks of operations. For clarity of presentation, the Company and Predecessor have described both periods presented as if the quarters ended on June 30th.

The accompanying unaudited financial statements and footnote information as of and for the three month period ended March 31, 2001 were prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) using the historical books and records of the Predecessor and reflect the historical cost basis of assets and liabilities of the Predecessor. The accompanying unaudited financial statements and footnote information of the Company as of and for the three month period ended June 30, 2001 and the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002 have been prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC using the new basis of assets and liabilities of the Company. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the results of operations for the periods indicated. The historical financial results of the Company and Predecessor are not necessarily indicative of their results for a full year.

USE OF ESTIMATES

Preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from the estimates used by management.

NOTE C - ADOPTION OF NEW ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS 141 is effective for all business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001; however, certain provisions of this Statement apply to goodwill and other intangible assets acquired between July 1, 2001 and the effective date of SFAS 142. We adopted the provisions of SFAS 142 as of January 1, 2002 and had no acquisitions between July 1, 2001 and January 1, 2002.

As a result of adopting SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142, our accounting policies for goodwill and intangible assets changed effective January 1, 2002 as described below:

Goodwill and Intangible Assets with Indefinite Lives

We recognize the excess cost of an acquired entity over the net amount assigned to assets acquired, including intangible assets with indefinite lives, and liabilities assumed, as goodwill. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives will be tested for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests whenever there is an impairment indicated. Impairment losses will be recognized whenever the implied fair value is less than the carrying value of the related asset. Prior to January 1, 2002, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives were amortized over 40 years. Beginning January 1, 2002, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized.

Other Intangibles

We recognize an acquired intangible apart from goodwill whenever the asset arises from contractual or other legal rights, or whenever it is capable of being separated or divided from the acquired entity and sold, transferred, licensed, rented, or exchanged, either individually or in combination with a related contract, asset, or liability. An intangible other than goodwill is amortized over its estimated useful life unless that life is determined to be indefinite. Impairment losses are recognized if the carrying amount of an intangible subject to amortization is not recoverable from expected future cash flows and its carrying amount exceeds its fair value.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2002, we completed the transitional impairment test of indefinite-lived intangible assets with no impairment indicated at January 1, 2002. During the second quarter of fiscal 2002, we completed the transitional impairment test of goodwill and other intangibles with no impairment indicated at January 1, 2002.

Our carrying amount, net of accumulated amortization, for goodwill as of June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 was $341,021,000. Each segment’s share of this goodwill at these dates was as follows:

Egg Products	$	254,182,000
Refrigerated Distribution	35,560,000
Potato Products	49,516,000
Dairy Products	1,763,000

The carrying amounts, net of accumulated amortization, for other indefinite-lived intangible assets (trademarks) as of June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 was $13,406,000. The Predecessor had no indefinite-lived intangible assets.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net earnings (loss), as reported in the financial statements, to those amounts adjusted for goodwill and intangible amortization determined in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 142.

	Six months ended June 30, 2002		Three months ended June 30, 2001		Three months ended March 31, 2001
	(Company)				(Predecessor)
Reported net earnings (loss)	$	12,675,000	$	1,669,000	$	(5,653,000	)
Add back: goodwill amortization	—		2,191,000		885,000
Adjusted net earnings (loss)	$	12,675,000	$	3,860,000	$	(4,768,000	)

Our acquired intangible assets that have been determined to have a definite life and continue to be amortized as of June 30, 2002 are as follows:

	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization
Licenses and non-compete	$	2,526,000	$	(994,000	)

The aggregate amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was approximately $360,000 and $179,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001. The Predecessor had amortization expense of approximately $500,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2001. The estimated amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2002 through December 31, 2006 is as follows:

	For the Years Ended December 31,
2002	$	715,000
2003	715,000
2004	186,000
2005	186,000
2006	87,000

Other New Pronouncements:

On January 1, 2002 we adopted SFAS 144 Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. The adoption of SFAS 144 did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In addition, we adopted Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 00-25 Vendor Income Statement Characterization of Consideration to a Reseller on the Vendors Products, effective January 1, 2002. The adoption of EITF Issue 00-25 did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE D - INVENTORIES

Inventories, other than flocks, are stated at the lower of cost (determined on a first-in, first-out basis) or market. Flock inventory represents the cost of purchasing and raising flocks to laying maturity, at which time their cost is amortized to operations over their expected useful life of generally one to two years, assuming no salvage value.

Inventories consisted of the following:

	June 30, 2002		December 31, 2001
Raw materials and supplies	$	17,374,000	$	15,347,000
Work in process and finished goods	45,004,000		43,027,000
Flocks	19,672,000		20,567,000
	$	82,050,000	$	78,941,000

NOTE E - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Egg Procurement Contracts

We maintain egg procurement contracts with numerous cooperatives and egg producers throughout the Midwestern and Eastern United States, which supply approximately 50% of our egg requirements. These contracts vary in length from 18 to 72 months with prices primarily indexed to grain or Urner Barry market indices. No single egg supplier provides more than 10% of our egg requirements.

Patent Litigation

We have an exclusive license agreement for a patented process for the production and sale of extended shelf-life liquid egg products. Under the license agreement, we have the right to defend and prosecute infringement of the underlying patents. We may apply 50% of our costs of defending the patents to future royalty payments.

The U.S. Federal Court of Appeals has upheld the validity of the patents on two separate occasions. In September 2000, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office allowed product claims beyond the process claims previously allowed for the extended shelf-life egg product. These patents are scheduled to expire beginning in 2006.

In 2000, the Predecessor settled litigation with one party related to the infringement of these patents and issued a sub-license to the infringing party granting them the right to manufacture and distribute extended shelf-life liquid whole egg product subject to royalties payable to us and the patent holder on all future product sold. In connection with this settlement, the patent holder received a lump sum payment for the past production and sale of the product and other matters related to the infringement. We are continuing to pursue litigation related to other parties who are infringing the product and process patents, including Sunny Fresh Foods, Inc., a subsidiary of Cargill, Inc.

Other Litigation

We are engaged in routine litigation incidental to our business. We believe the ultimate outcome of this litigation will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

M-FOODS DAIRY, LLC

(A MAJORITY OWNED SUBSIDIARY OF MICHAEL FOODS, INC.)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE A — ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS AND MERGER

Organization

M-Foods Dairy, LLC (the “Company”) is a majority owned subsidiary of Michael Foods, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of M-Foods Holdings, Inc. Prior to the Merger described below, Kohler Mix — MN (the “Predecessor,” “Operating Unit” or the “Unit”) was an operating unit of Michael Foods, Inc. The change in control of Michael Foods, Inc. and the reorganization of the operating unit into M-Foods Dairy, LLC are more fully described below.

Business

The Company processes and distributes soft serve ice cream mix, frozen yogurt mix, milk and specialty dairy products, many of which are ultra-high temperature pasteurized, from its facility in Minnesota.

Merger

On April 10, 2001, Michael Foods, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Michael Foods”) was acquired in a transaction (the “Merger”) led by an investor group comprised of a management group led by Michael Foods’ Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, Gregg Ostrander, affiliates of Jeffrey Michael, a member of the Predecessor Board of Directors, and affiliates of two private equity investment firms, Vestar Capital Partners and Goldner Hawn Johnson & Morrison Incorporated, collectively, M-Foods Investors, LLC. Under the terms of the Merger agreement, all outstanding shares of Michael Foods common stock were converted into the right to receive $30.10 per share in cash, or value equal thereto, and all outstanding stock options were converted into the right to receive, in cash, $30.10 per share reduced by the exercise price per share for all shares subject to such stock options. The purchase of the outstanding shares was financed through new equity financing of approximately $175,000,000, a senior secured credit facility of up to $470,000,000 at market-based variable interest rates (effective rate of approximately 6.8% as of June 30, 2002), and $200,000,000 of senior subordinated notes at an 11.75% annual interest rate.

Immediately after the close of the Merger, Michael Foods contributed the assets of its Dairy division into two limited liability corporations, M-Foods Dairy, LLC and M-Foods Dairy TXCT, LLC (collectively, the “Dairy LLCs”) and in exchange received voting preferred and voting common units from these entities equal to the fair value of the net assets contributed, which collectively were approximately $35,800,000 (the approximate fair value contributed to M-Foods Dairy, LLC was $26,850,000). The preferred units issued to Michael Foods have an annual 10% preferred return guarantee and represent 100% of the preferred units issued and outstanding. In addition, Michael Foods received 5% of the common units issued by each of the Dairy LLCs with the common units held by Michael Foods representing 100% of the voting common units issued and outstanding. These common units have a stated value of $25,000. The remaining 95% of the common units, which are non-voting, are owned by M-Foods Dairy Holdings, LLC, which is owned by the same owners, or affiliates of such owners, in the same proportion, as the unit holders of M-Foods Investors, LLC. The Dairy LLCs common unit interest owned by M-Foods Dairy Holdings, LLC was purchased for $475,000 as of April 1, 2001.

Following the Merger, Michael Foods, Inc. became an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of M-Foods Investors, LLC and M-Foods Dairy LLC became a majority owned subsidiary of Michael Foods, Inc.

The Merger was accounted for as a purchase in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion 16, Business Combinations and EITF 88-16, Basis in Leveraged Buyout Transactions. Accordingly, the acquired assets and liabilities were recorded at fair value for the interests acquired by new investors and at the carryover basis for continuing investors. As a result, the assets and liabilities were assigned new values, which are part Predecessor cost and part fair value, in the same proportions as the carryover basis of the residual interests retained by the continuing management investors and continuing affiliate investors of the Michael family and the new interests acquired by the new investors. The deemed dividend related to the Michael Foods investment in the assets and liabilities of the Dairy LLCs was pushed down to these majority owned subsidiaries, as if they were wholly owned subsidiaries since Michael Foods owns all of the voting stock and the Dairy LLCs are being operated by the management of Michael Foods. The amount of the deemed dividend at Michael Foods was $66,631,000.

For ease of presentation, the Merger has been reflected in the accompanying financial statements as if it had occurred on April 1, 2001. Management determined that no material transactions occurred during the period from April 1 through April 9, 2001. The Company’s financial statements have been presented on a comparative basis with the Predecessor’s historical operating unit financial statements, prior to the date of Merger. Different bases of accounting have been used to prepare the Company and Predecessor financial statements. The primary differences relate to the 10% yield on preferred units, depreciation and amortization of fixed assets and other intangible assets recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition, and income taxes which are payable by the Company’s unit holders.

The fair value contributed by Michael Foods to M-Foods Dairy, LLC was $26,850,000. In addition, $356,250 was contributed by new investors in exchange for Class B non-voting common units. This combined amount was allocated to the acquired assets and liabilities based on their fair values at April 1, 2001, net of the deemed dividend. The fair values of long-term assets were obtained from a valuation report issued by a third party appraisal firm. The allocations were as follows:

Working capital	$	10,426,000
Property, plant & equipment	15,135,000
Other assets, including goodwill	3,962,000

The following unaudited pro forma net sales and net earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2001 include results for the three months ended March 31, 2001, which were derived from the application of pro forma adjustments to the Predecessor’s historical statement of earnings, and assumes the Merger had occurred on January 1, 2001. The pro forma net earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2001 are also adjusted for goodwill amortization determined in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 142 (see Note B). The net sales and net earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2002 represent actual results for the period.

	Six months ended
	June 30, 2002		June 30, 2001
Net sales	$	51,825,000	$	40,626,000
Net earnings	4,000,000		4,910,000

NOTE B — BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Predecessor Statements of Earnings and Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2001 have been prepared from the historical books and records of Michael Foods. The respective Statements of Earnings include an allocation of general and administrative costs incurred by Michael Foods and allocations from this Operating Unit to the other Dairy LLC operating unit, M-Foods Dairy TXCT, LLC. The accompanying Company unaudited financial statements and footnote information as of and for the six month period ended June 30, 2002, and as of December 31, 2001, have been prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC using the adjusted cost basis of assets and liabilities of the Company. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. The Unit’s financial statements include an allocation for general and administrative costs incurred by Michael Foods. Management believes its allocations to these Operating Unit financial statements are reasonable. Additionally, Operating Unit equity includes the cumulative net advances between the Operating Unit and Michael Foods, which are considered additional capital invested from or, constructive dividends to, Michael Foods. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements may not necessarily be indicative of the results that could have been obtained if the Operating Unit had been operated as a stand-alone entity. The historical results of the Company and Predecessor for the periods indicated are not necessarily indicative of the results of the Company for a full year.

Use of Estimates

Preparation of the accompanying financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, related revenues and expenses and disclosure about contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from the estimates used by management.

NOTE C — INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined on a first-in, first-out basis) or market.

Inventories consisted of the following:

	June 30, 2002		December 31, 2001
Raw materials and supplies	$	2,430,000	$	1,625,000
Work in process and finished goods	2,127,000		1,967,000
	$	4,557,000	$	3,592,000

NOYE D — ADOPTION OF NEW ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS 141 is effective for all business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001; however, certain provisions of this Statement apply to goodwill and other intangible assets acquired between July 1, 2001 and the effective date of SFAS 142. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 142 as of January 1, 2002 and had no acquisitions between July 1, 2001 and January 1, 2002.

As a result of adopting SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142, the Company’s accounting policies for goodwill and intangible assets changed effective January 1, 2002 as described below:

Goodwill

The Company recognizes the excess cost of an acquired entity over the net amount assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed as goodwill. Goodwill will be tested for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests whenever there is an impairment indicated. Impairment losses will be recognized whenever the implied fair value is less than the carrying value of the related asset. Prior to January 1, 2002, goodwill was amortized over 40 years. Beginning January 1, 2002, goodwill is no longer amortized.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company completed the transitional impairment test of goodwill with no impairment indicated at January 1, 2002.

The Company’s carrying amount, net of accumulated amortization, for goodwill as of June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 was $1,763,000.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net earnings, as reported in the financial statements, to those amounts adjusted for goodwill as determined in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 142.

	Six months ended June 30, 2002		Three months ended June 30, 2001		Three months ended March 31, 2001
	(Company)				(Predecessor)

Reported net earnings	$	4,000,000	$	1,902,000	$	2,963,000
Add back: goodwill amortization	—		28,000		26,000
Adjusted net earnings	$	4,000,000	$	1,930,000	$	2,989,000

Other New Pronouncements

On January 1, 2002 the Company adopted SFAS 144 Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. The adoption of SFAS 144 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In addition, the Company adopted Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 00-25 Vendor Income Statement Characterization of Consideration to a Reseller on the Vendors Products, effective January 1, 2002. The adoption of EITF Issue 00-25 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE E — SETTLEMENT OF RECALL INSURANCE CLAIM

During the three months ended March 31, 2001, the Unit settled its insurance claim related to a product recall, which occurred in early 1999. The settlement reimbursed the Unit for recall related costs incurred, as well as a partial reimbursement for lost business as a result of the recall.

NOTE F — INCOME TAXES

Predecessor

The activity of the Operating Unit has been included in the income tax return of Michael Foods, Inc. for financial reporting purposes. The Unit has been allocated a provision for income taxes in an amount generally equivalent to the provision that would have resulted had the Unit filed a separate income tax return.

Company

For income tax purposes the Company is a pass-through entity. Therefore, income taxes have not been reflected on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE G — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

The Company is engaged in routine litigation incidental to its business. Management believes the ultimate outcome of this litigation will not have a material effect on the Unit’s financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

NOTE D — ADOPTION OF NEW ACOUNTING POLICIES

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001; however, certain provisions of this Statement apply to goodwill and other intangible assets acquired between July 1, 2001 and the effective date of SFAS 142. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 142 as of January 1, 2002 and had no acquisitions between July 1, 2001 and January 1, 2002.

As a result of adopting SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142, the Company’s accounting policies for goodwill and intangible assets changed effective January 1, 2002 as described below:

Goodwill

The Company recognizes the excess cost of an acquired entity over the net amount assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed as goodwill. The Company had no goodwill as of June 30, 2002 or December 31, 2001. If goodwill is acquired in the future, it will be tested for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests whenever there is an impairment indicated. Impairment losses will be recognized whenever the implied fair value is less than the carrying value of the related asset.

Other Intangibles

The Company recognizes an acquired intangible apart from goodwill whenever the asset arises from contractual or other legal rights, or whenever it is capable of being separated or divided from the acquired entity and sold, transferred, licensed, rented, or exchanged, either individually or in combination with a related contract, asset, or liability. An intangible other than goodwill is amortized over its estimated useful life unless that life is determined to be indefinite. Impairment losses are recognized if the carrying amount of an intangible subject to amortization is not recoverable from expected future cash flows and its carrying amount exceeds its fair value.

Acquired intangible assets of the Company that have been determined to have a definite life and continue to be amortized as of June 30, 2002 are as follows:

	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization
Non-compete	$	1,398,000	$	(605,000	)

The aggregate amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was approximately $265,000 and $128,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001. The Predecessor had amortization expense of $500,000 during the period ended March 31, 2001. The estimated amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2002 through December 31, 2003 is as follows:

	For the Years Ended December 31,
2002	$	529,000
2003	529,000

Other New Pronouncements

NOTE E — INCOME TAXES

Predecessor

The activity of the Operating Unit has been included in the income tax return of Michael Foods, Inc. for financial reporting purposes. The Unit has been allocated a provision for income taxes in an amount generally equivalent to the provision that would have resulted had the Unit filed a separate income tax return.

Company

For income tax purposes the Company is a pass through entity. Therefore, income taxes have not been reflected on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE F — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

The Company is engaged in routine litigation incidental to its business. Management believes the ultimate outcome of this litigation will not have a material effect on the accompanying statements of financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

ITEM 2 – MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 AS COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Readers are directed to Note G - Business Segments for data on the unaudited financial results of our four business segments for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and June 30, 2001.

Net sales for the 2002 period were $289,753,000, a decrease of 2% compared to net sales of $295,109,000 in the 2001 period. Net sales decreased because of the factors discussed in the below divisional reviews, but were lower in the 2002 period due largely to deflationary impacts in two divisions and weak units sales in another division.

Egg Products Division net sales for the 2002 period reflected slightly increased unit sales and deflation for industrial egg products, with the former related to gains in most categories and the latter tied to weaker pricing in the national egg market. Unit sales rose for most value-added products and were mixed for other products. Graded shell egg prices decreased approximately 4% compared to second quarter 2001 levels, as reported by Urner Barry Publications - - a widely quoted industry pricing service. Related egg market decreases lowered the cost of purchased eggs slightly. Approximately two-thirds of the Division’s annual egg needs are purchased under contracts or in the spot market. A substantial majority of these eggs are priced according to the cost of grain inputs or to egg market prices as reported by Urner Barry. Approximately one-third of annual egg needs are sourced from internal flocks, where feed costs typically represent roughly two-thirds of the cost of producing such eggs. Feed costs were higher in the 2002 period, compared to the 2001 period, due mainly to higher prices for corn. Overall, egg costs decreased slightly in the 2002 period, as compared to the 2001 period, while pricing for value-added egg products was generally flat. This resulted in higher margins for certain egg products, particularly egg substitutes, precooked products and dried products, and higher divisional margins in total.

Refrigerated Distribution Division net sales for the 2002 period reflected lower unit sales, especially in the key cheese and butter categories. Unit sales were down due to several factors, including a national trend whereby private label cheeses have been taking market share from branded cheeses, generally weak retail grocery sales, and store closures by certain grocery chains served by the Division. Despite lower sales, earnings rose in the important cheese category. Cheese pricing improved year-over-year while product costs declined, raising margins. This margin expansion was subdued, however, due to hedging activities that resulted in significant cheese ownership at above-market levels.

Dairy Products Division net sales for the 2002 period reflected higher unit sales, due mainly to strong creamer and specialty cartoned product sales. General dairy products deflation reduced pricing for certain product categories, which somewhat constrained dollar sales growth. The combination of sales growth, reduced ingredient costs and improved plant operating costs, the latter partially reflecting volume-induced economies of scale, raised gross, and operating, profit margins significantly.

Potato Products Division net sales for the 2002 period reflected unit sales increases in all product categories. Sales were particularly strong for mashed items — both at retail and at foodservice. New account activity, same-account sales growth and higher marketing spending levels all contributed to the sales gain. The operating profit increase in the 2002 period reflected improved operating costs and the impact of a favorable sales mix, with retail sales rising as a percent of the divisional total.

The increase in our gross profit margin for the 2002 period, as compared to the results of the 2001 period, reflected the factors discussed above, particularly sales mix improvements, decreased raw material costs in certain divisions and generally improved operating costs. It is our strategy to increase value-added product sales as a percent of total sales over time, while decreasing commodity-sensitive products’ contribution to consolidated sales. These efforts historically have been beneficial to gross profit margins in most periods.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were stable as a percent of sales in the 2002 period, as compared to the results of the 2001 period, with both net sales and operating expenses declining by about 2% year-over-year.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 AS COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Readers are directed to Note G - Business Segments for data on the unaudited financial results of the Company’s and the Predecessor’s four business segments and must combine 2001 three month periods to evaluate the six months ended June 30, 2001 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002.

Net sales in the 2002 period were $568,182,000, a decrease of less than 1% compared to net sales of $570,736,000 for the Company and the Predecessor in the 2001 period. Net sales decreased because of the factors discussed in the below divisional reviews, but were slightly lower in the 2002 period due largely to lower unit sales and deflationary impacts in one division and weak units sales in another division.

Egg Products Division net sales for the 2002 period reflected decreased unit sales and slight deflation for industrial egg products, with the former related mainly to planned shell egg sales decreases and the latter tied to weaker pricing in the national egg market. Unit sales rose for egg substitutes, hardcooked items and precooked products, and declined slightly for other products. Graded shell egg prices decreased approximately 4% compared to first half 2001 levels, as reported by Urner Barry Publications. Related egg market decreases lowered the cost of purchased eggs slightly. Approximately two-thirds of the Division’s annual egg needs are purchased under contracts or in the spot market. A substantial majority of these eggs are priced according to the cost of grain inputs or to egg market prices as reported by Urner Barry. Approximately one-third of annual egg needs are sourced from internal flocks, where feed costs typically represent roughly two-thirds of the cost of producing such eggs. Feed costs were slightly higher in the 2002 period, compared to the 2001 period, due mainly to higher prices for corn. Overall, egg costs decreased slightly in the 2002 period, as compared to the 2001 period, while pricing for value-added egg products was generally flat. This resulted in higher margins for certain egg products, particularly egg substitutes, precooked products, hardcooked products and dried products, and higher divisional margins in total.

Refrigerated Distribution Division net sales for the 2002 period reflected lower unit sales, especially in the key cheese category. Unit sales were down due to several factors, including a national trend whereby private label cheeses have been taking market share from branded cheeses, generally weak retail grocery sales, and store closures by certain grocery chains served by the Division. Cheese pricing increased year-over-year, but our cheese sourcing costs rose more rapidly than did our selling prices. This was largely due to hedging activities that resulted in significant cheese ownership at above-market levels. Cheese margins, and divisional margins, were lower in the 2002 period as a result of these conditions. By the end of the 2002 period cheese hedging activities had returned to more normal levels.

Dairy Products Division net sales for the 2002 period reflected higher unit sales, due mainly to strong creamer and specialty cartoned product sales. The combination of sales growth, reduced ingredient costs and improved plant operating costs, the latter partially reflecting volume-induced economies of scale, raised gross, and operating, profit margins significantly. Excluding an insurance settlement of approximately $3,218,000 from operating profit in the 2001 period would provide the reader with a better perspective of the strength of core operating results for the Division.

The increase in our gross profit margin for the period ended June 30, 2002, as compared to the results of the 2001 period, reflected the factors discussed above, particularly sales mix improvements, decreased raw material costs in certain divisions and generally improved operating costs. It is our strategy to increase value-added product sales as a percent of total sales over time, while decreasing commodity-sensitive products’ contribution to consolidated sales. These efforts historically have been beneficial to gross profit margins in most periods.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased as a percent of sales for the period ended June 30, 2002, as compared to the results of the 2001 period. However, within the 2001 period the Predecessor recorded non-recurring expenses related to the Merger for financial, legal, advisory and regulatory filing fees. These expenses of $11,050,000 are reflected in the Predecessor Consolidated Statement of Earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2001 as transaction expenses. Exclusive of these one-time transaction expenses, selling, general and administrative expenses increased as a percent of sales in the 2002 period as compared to the 2001 period. This increased expense ratio reflected higher expenses to support retail and foodservice marketing efforts and broadened sales efforts, and for our centralized purchasing department.

GENERAL

Certain of our products are sensitive to changes in commodity prices. Value-added egg products, such as extended shelf-life liquid and precooked products, account for approximately 60% of the Egg Products Division’s net sales. The remainder of Egg Products Division sales is derived from the sale of other egg products and shell eggs, which vary from being very commodity-sensitive to somewhat value-added. Gross profit from shell eggs is primarily dependent upon the relationship between shell egg prices and the cost of feed, both of which can fluctuate significantly. Graded shell egg pricing in the 2002 six month period was approximately 4% below 2001 levels, as measured by a widely quoted pricing service, while feed costs rose slightly year-over-year. Gross profit margins for extended shelf-life liquid eggs, egg substitutes, and precooked and hardcooked egg products are less sensitive to commodity price fluctuations than are other egg products or shell eggs. Our Refrigerated Distribution Division derives approximately 75% of its net sales from refrigerated products produced by others, thereby reducing the effects of commodity price swings. The balance of refrigerated distribution sales are mainly from shell eggs, some of which are produced by the Egg Products Division, sold on a distribution, or non-commodity, basis.

The Dairy Products Division sells its products primarily on a cost-plus basis and, therefore, the Division’s earnings are not typically affected greatly by raw ingredient price fluctuations, except over short time periods.

The Potato Products Division typically purchases 75%-95% of its raw potatoes from contract producers under annual contracts. The remainder is purchased at market prices to satisfy short-term production requirements or to take advantage of market prices when they are lower than contracted prices. Moderate variations in the purchase price of raw materials or the selling price per pound of finished products can have a significant effect on Potato Products Division operating results.

Inflation is not expected to have a significant impact on our business. We have generally been able to offset the impact of inflation through a combination of productivity gains and price increases.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

Acquisitions and capital expenditures have been, and will likely continue to be, a significant capital requirement. We plan to continue to invest in state-of-the-art production facilities to enhance our competitive position. Historically, we have financed our growth principally from internally generated funds, bank borrowings, and the issuance of senior debt. We believe such sources remain viable financing alternatives to meet our anticipated needs.

We invested $7,386,000 in capital expenditures during the three months ended June 30, 2002 and $14,263,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2002. We plan to spend approximately $38,000,000 on capital expenditures in 2002, the majority of which is to expand or update production capacity for value-added products.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) in the 2002 six month period were $74,767,000, an increase of 9% compared to the Company’s and Predecessor’s combined $68,800,000 in the comparable 2001 period. EBITDA increased because of the factors discussed in the above results of operations divisional reviews. Our management believes that EBITDA is a relevant measurement of our financial results, as it is indicative of the relative strength of our cash flows and is a key measurement contained in the financial covenants of our senior indebtedness. In addition, as a highly leveraged company, the holders of our debt have a significant interest in our cash flows. We compute EBITDA as it is defined in our senior credit agreement (see Exhibit 10.1 of our Amendment No. 1 to Form S-4 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 18, 2001). This definition may not be comparable to that used by other companies reporting similar financial information.

We believe EBITDA is a widely accepted financial indicator used to analyze and compare companies on the basis of operating performance. It should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and is not indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under generally accepted accounting principles.

We have a senior secured credit facility with numerous banks, other financial institutions and investment groups, which totaled $470,000,000 at the time of the Merger. At June 30, 2002, there were no borrowings under the $100,000,000 line of credit portion of this facility, while the term A portion therein approximated $81,600,000 and the term B portion approximated $245,600,000.

The senior credit facility contains various restrictive covenants. It prohibits us from prepaying other indebtedness, including the notes, and it requires us to maintain specified financial ratios, such as a minimum ratio of EBITDA to interest expense, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a maximum ratio of total debt to EBITDA, and satisfy financial condition tests. In addition, the senior credit facility prohibits us from declaring or paying any dividends and prohibits us from making any payments with respect to the notes if we fail to perform our obligations under, or fail to meet the conditions of, the senior credit facility or if payment creates a default under the senior credit facility.

The indenture governing the notes, among other things, (a) restricts the ability of the issuer and its subsidiaries, including the guarantors of the notes, to incur additional indebtedness, issue shares of preferred stock, incur liens, pay dividends or make certain other restricted payments and enter into certain transactions with affiliates, (b) prohibits certain restrictions on the ability of certain of the issuer’s subsidiaries, including the guarantors of the notes, to pay dividends or make certain payments to the issuer and (c) places restrictions on the ability of the issuer and its subsidiaries, including the guarantors of the notes, to merge or consolidate with any other person or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the assets of the issuer. The indenture related to these notes and the senior credit facility also contain various covenants which limit our discretion in the operation of our businesses.

Our principal sources of funds are anticipated to be cash flows from operating activities and borrowings under our senior credit facility. We believe that these funds will provide us with sufficient liquidity and capital resources for us to meet our current and future financial obligations, as well as to provide funds for our working capital, capital expenditures and other needs for at least the next 12 months. No assurance can be given, however, that this will be the case. We may require additional equity or debt financing to meet our working capital requirements or to fund our acquisition activities, if any. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available when required or, if available, will be on terms satisfactory to us.

SEASONALITY

Consolidated quarterly operating results are affected by the seasonality of our net sales and operating profits. Specifically, shell egg prices typically rise seasonally in the first and fourth quarters of the year due to increased demand during holiday periods. Generally, refrigerated distribution operations experience higher net sales and operating profits in the fourth quarter, coinciding with incremental consumer demand during the holiday season. Net sales and operating profits from dairy operations typically are significantly higher in the second and third quarters due to increased consumption of ice milk and ice cream products during the summer months. Operating profits from potato products are less seasonal, but tend to be higher in the second half of the year coinciding with the potato harvest.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain items in this Form 10-Q may be forward-looking statements, which are made in reliance upon the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including variances in the demand for our products due to consumer developments and industry developments, as well as variances in the costs to produce such products, including normal volatility in egg, feed and dairy ingredients costs. Our actual financial results could differ materially from the results estimated by, forecasted by, or implied by us in such forward-looking statements.
