Item 8.01 Other Events.

On December 8, 2015, Bob Evans Farms, Inc. (the “Company”) issued an investor presentation titled “Investor Presentation (revised 12.4.15)” (“Investor Presentation”). The Company’s Investor Presentation is available on its website at http://investors.bobevans.com/events.cfm under “Investors Relations - “Events & Presentations” and is also furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company’s reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and other publicly available information, should also be consulted for other important information about the Company.

The information included in the Investor Presentation includes financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance. The Company believes that the presentation of certain non-GAAP measures provides useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the operating results of the Company’s core businesses as well as its segments. These non-GAAP disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. The reconciliation of the non-GAAP information to GAAP is included in the Investor Presentation furnished as Exhibit 99.1.

Some of the matters discussed in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe-harbor” provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include statements other than those made solely with respect to historical fact and are based on the intent, belief or current expectations of the Company and/or its management. The Company’s business and operations are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties that might cause actual results to differ materially from those projected by any forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to, the risk factors and other materials set forth in the Company’s filings with the SEC.
