Year to Date Fiscal 2015 Financial Highlights Compared to Prior Year Period

“In the third quarter, net sales increased 36%, driven by increased velocity per fridge, demonstrating continued consumer demand for Freshpet’s simple, natural pet foods,” said Richard Thompson, Freshpet’s Chief Executive Officer. “We made meaningful progress across several areas of our business, however, we experienced lower than expected Freshpet Fridge growth and our gross margin was negatively affected by manufacturing inefficiencies from new product innovation and the near term cost of adjusting processes on our primary products. As a result, we have updated our annual guidance to reflect these headwinds, and are intently focused on the execution of our operational and financial objectives. Going forward, we will further improve our manufacturing costs and processes, drive greater leverage across our business model and in turn, enhance long-term shareholder value.”

Gross profit was $14.0 million, or 45.9% of net sales, compared to $10.9 million, or 48.3% of net sales for the same quarter last year.

Cash and Net Debt

As of September 30, 2015, the Company had cash and cash equivalents and short term investments (certificates of deposit) of $19.0 million, compared to $36.3 million as of December 31, 2014. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents and short term investments is primarily due to the capital expenditures related to the expansion of the Company’s Freshpet Kitchens in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, the purchase of a building and 6.5 acres of land adjacent to Freshpet Kitchens for approximately $5.0 million, and capital investments to increase distribution through the purchase of additional Freshpet Fridges.

In conjunction with its initial public offering, the Company entered into a $40 million credit facility, of which zero was outstanding at September 30, 2015. The Company expects to use its current liquidity, which includes borrowings available under its credit facility, to continue its expansion of its manufacturing facility to add capacity and grow distribution.

Outlook

The Company updated its guidance for 2015. For full year 2015, the Company expects the following full year results compared to prior year:

Forward Looking Statements

Certain statements in this release may constitute “forward-looking” statements. These statements are based on management's current opinions, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or projections regarding future events or future results. These forward-looking statements are only predictions, not historical fact, and involve certain risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions. Actual results, levels of activity, performance, achievements and events could differ materially from those stated, anticipated or implied by such forward-looking statements. While Freshpet believes that its assumptions are reasonable, it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and, of course, it is impossible to anticipate all factors that could affect actual results. There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements made herein including, most prominently, the risks discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2015. Such forward-looking statements are made only as of the date of this release. Freshpet undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law. If we do update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be made that we will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Measures

Management believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP measurements, are meaningful to investors because they provide a view of the Company with respect to ongoing operating results. EBITDA, which represents net loss plus depreciation and amortization, interest expense (including fees on debt guarantee), and income tax expense, and Adjusted EBITDA, which we define as EBITDA plus loss on disposal of equipment, new plant startup expenses and processing, share based compensation, launch expenses, warrant expenses, and fees associated with the secondary offering, are shown as supplemental disclosures because these figures are widely used by the investment community for analysis and comparative evaluation and each of these measures provides an additional metric to evaluate the Company’s operations and, when considered with both the Company’s U.S. GAAP results and the reconciliation to net loss, provides a more complete understanding of the Company’s business than could be obtained absent this disclosure. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not and should not be considered alternatives to net loss or any other figure calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, or as an indicator of operating performance. The Company’s calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may differ from methods used by other companies. Management believes that these non-GAAP measurements are important to an understanding of the Company's overall operating results in the periods presented. Such non-GAAP measurements are not recognized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance. We have not reconciled our expected Adjusted EBITDA to net income under “Outlook” because we have not finalized our calculations of several factors necessary to provide the reconciliation, including net income, interest expense and income tax expense. In addition, certain items that impact net income and other reconciling metrics are out of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted at this time.
