As part of the name change, the Company’s website and e-mail domain has changed to www.boulderbrands.com and the Company’s shares will be traded under the symbol “BDBD.” Also announced, the Company will move its primary corporate offices to Boulder, CO, in the summer of 2013.

 

Commenting on the name change and principal corporate relocation, Steve Hughes stated, “Our mission is to become the leading health and wellness company by building out and acquiring natural brands. With our natural brands - Udi's, Glutino, and Earth Balance - expected to represent greater than 50% of net revenue in 2013, we are a more diversified growth company. The decision to change our corporate name to Boulder Brands, Inc. simply completes our evolution, from when the company was founded as Boulder Specialty Brands in 2005. We are delighted to move our principal corporate offices to Pearl Street in downtown Boulder this summer. Boulder, CO, known as ‘the Silicon Valley of Natural Foods’ is home to many natural food companies and retailers, and Boulder Brands, Inc., will certainly both benefit from and also have a positive impact on the community.”
