Check the appropriate box below if the Form 8-K filing is intended to simultaneously satisfy the filing obligation of the registrant under any of the following provisions:

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 are slides that were presented to lenders on January 23, 2017, by Pinnacle Foods Inc.

This information and the exhibit attached hereto are being “furnished” pursuant to Item 7.01 and in accordance with general instruction B.2 to Form 8-K shall not be deemed “filed” with the Securities and Exchange Commission for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or otherwise subject to the liabilities under that section, nor shall such information be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filings under the Securities Act of 1933.

The presentation may contain statements that predict or forecast future events or results, depend on future events for their accuracy or otherwise contain “forward-looking statements.” Such forward-looking statements include information concerning our possible or assumed future results of operations. These statements often include words such as “approximate,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “may,” “should” or variations of such words or similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. Accordingly, readers are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict, including but not limited to the risks and uncertainties detailed in our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 25, 2016. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date made, expectations may prove to have been materially different from the results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The registrant assumes no obligation to update the information contained in the presentation.

Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
