Rhea-AI Filing Summary

John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. reported higher sales and earnings for the quarter and first half of fiscal 2026. Quarterly net sales rose to $314.8 million, up 4.6% year over year, while first-half net sales reached $613.5 million, up 6.3%.

Despite lower sales volumes, higher average selling prices and better alignment with commodity costs lifted profitability. Quarterly net income increased to $18.0 million with diluted EPS of $1.53, and first-half net income rose to $36.7 million with diluted EPS of $3.12. Gross margin expanded to 18.8% for the quarter and 18.5% for the first half.

Operating cash flow strengthened to $94.6 million in the first half, supporting $47.3 million of capital spending, including major investments in production capacity and efficiency. Total debt (current and long-term) increased as the company drew $26.2 million on a new equipment loan while reducing revolving credit borrowings to $10.0 million. Inventories grew 14.4% year over year, reflecting higher nut acquisition costs and higher finished goods levels.

Positive

  • Stronger profitability and margins: Quarterly net income rose to $17.957 million from $13.595 million and gross margin improved to 18.8%, with first-half operating margin increasing to 8.6% from 6.3%, indicating materially better earnings power.
  • Robust operating cash flow funding growth: First-half operating cash flow increased to $94.625 million, comfortably covering $47.323 million of capital expenditures for capacity expansion and efficiency projects while reducing revolving credit borrowings to $10.0 million.

Negative

  • None.

Insights

Margin expansion and strong cash flow offset volume declines, supporting heavy capex and balance-sheet flexibility.

JBSS delivered solid top-line growth driven by a double‑digit increase in average selling prices, even as volumes fell. Quarterly net sales reached $314.8 million and gross margin improved to 18.8%, helped by tighter pricing versus nut input costs and lower manufacturing spending.

Operating leverage was evident: operating margin rose to 8.3% of sales, and quarterly net income increased to $17.957 million with diluted EPS of $1.53. First‑half operating income climbed to $52.992 million, or 8.6% of sales, versus 6.3% a year earlier, despite weaker category volumes.

Cash generation was a highlight. First‑half operating cash flow surged to $94.625 million, funding $47.323 million of capex tied to production expansions and bar capacity. Debt rose as the company utilized an equipment loan, with total current and long‑term debt of $32.145 million and revolver borrowings of $10.0 million as of December 25, 2025. Inventories increased 14.4% year over year, reflecting higher nut costs and more finished goods, so future performance will depend on converting that stock into profitable sales amid soft consumer demand.

JOHN B. SANFILIPPO & SON, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(Dollars in thousands, except where noted and per share data)

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Description of Business

As used herein, unless the context otherwise indicates, the terms “we”, “us”, “our” or “Company” collectively refer to John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiary, JBSS Ventures, LLC. Our fiscal year ends on the final Thursday of June each year, and typically consists of fifty-two weeks (four thirteen-week quarters). Additional information on the comparability of the periods presented is as follows:

References herein to fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025 are to the fiscal year ending June 25, 2026 and the fiscal year ended June 26, 2025, respectively.
References herein to the second quarter of fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025 are to the quarters ended December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024, respectively.
References herein to the first half or first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025 are to the twenty-six weeks ended December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024, respectively.

We are one of the leading processors and distributors of peanuts, pecans, cashews, walnuts, almonds and other nuts in the United States. We also manufacture and distribute a portfolio of snack and nutrition bars (“bars”), and market and distribute, and in most cases, manufacture or process, a diverse product line of other food and snack products, including peanut butter, almond butter, cashew butter, candy and confections, snack and trail mixes, granola, sunflower kernels, dried fruit, corn snacks, sesame sticks, other sesame snack products and baked cheese snack products. We primarily sell our products under a variety of private brand names, as well as under our Fisher, Orchard Valley Harvest, Squirrel Brand, Southern Style Nuts and Just the Cheese brand names. Our products are sold through three core distribution channels, including food retailers in the consumer channel, commercial ingredient users and contract manufacturing customers.

The accompanying unaudited financial statements fairly present the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity and consolidated statements of cash flows, and reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for the fair statement of the results of the interim periods. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.

The interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. The balance sheet data as of June 26, 2025 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Accordingly, these unaudited financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 26, 2025.

Note 2 – Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. For each customer contract, a five-step process is followed in which we identify the contract, identify performance obligations, determine the transaction price, allocate the contract transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognize the revenue when (or as) the performance obligation is transferred to the customer.

When Performance Obligations Are Satisfied

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account for revenue recognition. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s performance obligations are primarily for the delivery of raw and processed recipe and snack nuts, nut butters, trail mixes and bars.

Our customer contracts do not include more than one performance obligation. If a contract were to contain more than one performance obligation, we are required to allocate the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. The standalone selling price for each distinct good is generally determined by directly observable data.

Table of Contents

 

Revenue recognition is generally completed at a point in time when product control is transferred to the customer. For virtually all of our revenues, control transfers to the customer when the product is shipped or delivered to the customer based upon applicable shipping terms. This allows the customer to then direct the use and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the asset at that point in time. Therefore, the timing of our revenue recognition requires little judgment.

Variable Consideration

Some of our products are sold through specific incentive programs consisting of promotional allowances, volume and customer rebates, in-store display incentives and marketing allowances, among others, to consumer and some commercial ingredient customers. The ultimate cost of these programs is dependent on certain factors such as actual purchase volumes or customer activities. It is also dependent on significant management judgment when determining estimates. The Company accounts for these programs as variable consideration and recognizes a reduction in revenue (and a corresponding reduction in the transaction price) in the same period as the underlying program based upon the terms of the specific arrangements.

Trade promotions, consisting primarily of customer pricing allowances, merchandising funds and consumer coupons, are also offered through various programs to customers and consumers. A provision for estimated trade promotions is recorded as a reduction of revenue (and a reduction in the transaction price) in the same period when the sale is recognized. Revenues are also recorded net of expected customer deductions, which are provided for based upon past experiences. Evaluating these estimates requires management judgment.

We generally use the most likely amount method to determine the variable consideration. We believe there will not be significant changes to our estimates of variable consideration when any related uncertainties are resolved with our customers. The Company reviews and updates its estimates and related accruals of variable consideration and trade promotions at least quarterly based on the terms of the agreements and historical experience. Any uncertainties in the ultimate resolution of variable consideration due to factors outside of the Company’s influence are typically resolved within a short timeframe. Therefore, no additional constraint on the variable consideration is required.

Contract Balances

Contract assets or liabilities result from transactions with revenue recorded over time. If the measure of remaining rights exceeds the measure of the remaining performance obligations, the Company records a contract asset. Conversely, if the measure of the remaining performance obligations exceeds the measure of the remaining rights, the Company records a contract liability. The contract asset balances as of June 26, 2025 and December 26, 2024 were $159 and $611, respectively, and are recorded in the caption “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. There was no contract asset balance at December 25, 2025. The Company generally does not have material deferred revenue or contract liability balances arising from transactions with customers.

Note 3 – Leases

Description of Leases

We lease warehouse space, equipment used in the transportation of goods in our warehouses, a limited number of automobiles and semi-trailers and a small office space. Our leases generally do not contain any explicit guarantees of residual value and, with the exception of the lease for our warehousing and distribution center in Huntley, IL, generally do not contain non-lease components. Our leases for warehouse transportation equipment generally require the equipment to be returned to the lessor in good working order.

Table of Contents

 

Through a review of our contracts, we determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception and analyze the lease to determine if it is operating or finance. Operating lease right-of-use assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental collateralized borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Implicit rates are used when readily determinable. With the exception of our warehouse leases, none of our other leases currently contain options to extend the term. In the event of an option to extend the term of a lease, the lease term used in measuring the liability would include options to extend or terminate the lease if it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. Our leases have remaining terms of up to 6.9 years.

It is our accounting policy not to apply lease recognition requirements to short-term leases, defined as leases with an initial term of 12 months or less. As such, leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We have also made the policy election to not separate lease and non-lease components for all leases.

The following table provides supplemental information related to operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities:

On January 15, 2026, the Company executed a 10 year lease for the remaining warehouse space of approximately 285,000 square feet in Huntley, IL. The original warehouse space was leased starting in fiscal 2024 near our largest facility in Elgin, IL, and the execution of this lease will result in us renting the entire building. The warehouse will be primarily utilized to store finished goods inventory and as a distribution center along with light manufacturing. Since the lease for the remaining space has not yet commenced, approximately $18,146 of additional operating leases are not reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and tables above. The lease for the remaining space is scheduled to commence not later than the first quarter of fiscal 2027.

Lessor Accounting

We lease office space in our four-story office building located in Elgin, IL. As a lessor, we retain substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership of the investment property. Under Topic 842: Leases, we continue to account for all of our leases as operating leases. Lease agreements may include options to renew. We accrue fixed lease income on a straight‑line basis over the terms of the leases. There is generally no variable lease consideration and an immaterial amount of non-lease components such as recurring utility and storage fees. Leases between related parties are immaterial.

Note 6 – Credit Facility

Our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated March 5, 2020, as amended most recently on June 16, 2025, provides for a $150,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) and has a maturity date of September 29, 2028. The Credit Facility is secured by our accounts receivable and inventory.

At December 25, 2025, we had $134,745 of available credit under the Credit Facility reflecting borrowings of $10,000 and reduced availability as a result of $5,255 in outstanding letters of credit. As of December 25, 2025, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under the Credit Facility.

Note 7 – Equipment Loan

On June 16, 2025, the Company entered into a financing agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. which allows the Company to finance up to $50,000 for the purchase of equipment to further expand our production capabilities, increase our efficiency and further enhance our product offerings to our customers (the “Equipment Loan”). The Equipment Loan is provided under a master loan agreement and related equipment schedules, and is secured under a Security Agreement that provides for a first priority lien on all equipment and a second priority lien on our accounts receivable and inventory. The Company will be required to make sixty equal monthly payments comprised of principal and interest starting upon equipment acceptance and distribution of the final loan proceeds, which is expected to occur in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026. The fixed interest rate (SOFR plus an applicable margin of 1.49%) will be calculated at that point in time as well. The Equipment Loan contains a graded prepayment penalty if the loan is paid off within 36 months of commencement. The Company will make monthly interest-only payments of SOFR plus an applicable margin of 1.60% prior to the delivery and acceptance of the equipment and distribution of the final loan proceeds, which will be capitalized as part of the equipment acquisition cost.

As of December 25, 2025 and June 26, 2025 there was $26,176 and $9,265, respectively, of the debt obligation under the Equipment Loan outstanding. The interest costs incurred directly attributable to the Equipment Loan were capitalized. Interest capitalized was $372 and $716 for the quarter and twenty-six weeks ended December 25, 2025, respectively. No interest was capitalized for the quarter and twenty-six weeks ended December 26, 2024 because no significant project required such capitalization.

Based on current expectations and performance against these metrics, we expect 22,054 PSUs to be earned and thus vest at the end of the applicable vesting periods. The final number of shares that will eventually be earned and vest (if any) has not yet been determined as of December 25, 2025.

Note 11 – Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

We are currently a party to various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. While management presently believes that the ultimate outcomes of these proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not materially affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows, legal proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable outcomes could occur. Unfavorable outcomes could include substantial monetary damages in excess of any appropriate accruals management has established. Were such unfavorable final outcomes to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Note 12 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Level 1

 

 

 

 

Quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets and liabilities.

 

 

 

Level 2

 

 

 

 

Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets. For example, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets.

 

 

 

Level 3

 

 

 

 

Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data available.

 

The carrying values of cash, trade accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values at each balance sheet date because of the short-term maturities and nature of these balances.

The carrying value of our revolving credit facility borrowings approximates fair value at each balance sheet date because interest rates on this instrument approximate current market rates (Level 2 criteria) and because of the short-term maturity and nature of this balance. In addition, there has been no significant change in our inherent credit risk.

The following table summarizes the carrying value and fair value estimate of our current and long-term debt, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs:

Fair value of current and long-term debt:

 

 

31,900

 

 

 

15,329

 

 

 

6,545

 

 

The estimated fair value of our current and long-term debt was determined using a market approach based upon Level 2 observable inputs, which estimates fair value based on interest rates currently offered on loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality or broker quotes. In addition, there have been no significant changes in the underlying assets securing our long-term debt.

Note 13 – Segment Reporting

The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is comprised of the chief executive officer and chief operating officer who review financial information on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. As such, we operate in a single reporting unit and operating segment that consists of selling various nut and nut related products and bars through three distribution channels, almost entirely within the United States. A description of how the Company derives revenues is included in Note 2 “Revenue Recognition”.

The CODM uses consolidated net income as the measure of segment profit or loss to make key operating decisions, monitor budget versus actual results and allocate resources. The CODM compares net income to prior year to assess year-over-year growth of the Company and compares net income to budget to evaluate how the Company is performing against internal expectations. The measure of segment assets is reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as total assets. Depreciation, amortization and purchases of property, plant and equipment are reported at the consolidated level on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The significant segment expenses regularly provided to the CODM are those presented on our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. These significant expenses include cost of sales, selling expenses and administrative expenses. Other segment items include interest expense, net rental and miscellaneous expense, pension expense and income tax expense on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

Depreciation expense was $6,717 and $13,559 for the quarter and twenty-six weeks ended December 25, 2025, respectively and $6,224 and $12,388 for the quarter and twenty-six weeks ended December 26, 2024, respectively.

Note 14 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Tax Legislation

The following recent accounting pronouncements have not yet been adopted:

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”. The amendments in this update enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The requirements of this amendment will first be applied in our upcoming Form 10-K filing for the fiscal year ending June 25, 2026, and will be applied prospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of this disclosure update but do not expect it to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 “Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses”. The amendments in this update require disaggregated disclosure of certain costs and expenses, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. The amendments are effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this update on our related disclosures.

The following tax law was enacted this fiscal year:

Public Law No. 119-21, commonly known as the One, Big, Beautiful Bill Act (the “Act”), was signed into law on July 4, 2025. The Act contains significant tax law changes with various effective dates affecting business taxpayers, including the Company. Among the tax law changes that will impact the Company relate to the acceleration of certain tax deductions including depreciation expense and research and development expenditures. This will lead to lower cash tax payments in the near term combined with an increase in our deferred tax liability. The Company implemented the Act’s tax law changes in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. The Company does not anticipate any impact to its overall tax expense, but the Act will impact the allocation of tax expense between current and deferred.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

OVERVIEW

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Our fiscal year ends on the final Thursday of June each year, and typically consists of fifty-two weeks (four thirteen-week quarters). Additional information on the comparability of the periods presented is as follows:

 

References herein to fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025 are to the fiscal year ending June 25, 2026 and the fiscal year ended June 26, 2025, respectively.
References herein to the second quarter of fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025 are to the quarters ended December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024, respectively.
References herein to the first half or first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025 are to the twenty-six weeks ended December 25, 2025 and December 26, 2024, respectively.

As used herein, unless the context otherwise indicates, the terms “we”, “us”, “our” or “Company” collectively refer to John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiary, JBSS Ventures, LLC.

We are one of the leading processors and distributors of peanuts, pecans, cashews, walnuts, almonds and other nuts in the United States. We also manufacture and distribute a portfolio of snack and nutrition bars (“bars”), and market and distribute, and in most cases, manufacture or process, a diverse product line of other food and snack products, including peanut butter, almond butter, cashew butter, candy and confections, snack and trail mixes, granola, sunflower kernels, dried fruit, corn snacks, sesame sticks, other sesame snack products and baked cheese snack products. We primarily sell our products under a variety of private brand names, as well as under our Fisher, Orchard Valley Harvest, Squirrel Brand, Southern Style Nuts and Just the Cheese brand names. Our products are sold through three core distribution channels, including food retailers in the consumer channel, commercial ingredient users and contract manufacturing customers.

Our Long-Range Plan defines our future growth priorities, focused on accelerating our private brand business with key customers in high-growth snacking categories, most notably private brand bars, while expanding branded distribution behind Orchard Valley Harvest and Fisher via insight-driven product and packaging innovation. Execution of this plan is anchored in delivering value-added solutions and high-quality, innovative products based on our extensive industry and consumer expertise. Growth in private brand bars will be supported by capacity expansion and a robust innovation pipeline, with continued focus on nutrition bars. For our branded nut & trail mix business, we are focused on attracting new consumers through product innovation, broader distribution across traditional and alternative channels and expanded purchasing occasions, including club stores and e-commerce. Promotional and advertising investments are being prioritized to drive volume growth, supported by an omni-channel strategy across recipe nuts, snack nuts and trail mix. Our Long-Range Plan includes growth through product and packaging innovation and targeted, opportunistic acquisitions. To support these initiatives, beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 and continuing into fiscal 2026, we are making incremental significant capital investments in equipment and infrastructure improvements to expand our production capabilities, improve efficiency and enhance product offerings for our customers.

We continue to face ongoing operational and regulatory challenges, including food safety and compliance requirements, maintaining and expanding our customer base and driving growth across private brand and branded categories. Shifts or declines in consumer demand within a highly competitive snack product environment, combined with macroeconomic uncertainty, could adversely impact our ability to execute our Long-Range Plan.

Additional challenges include, higher food and input costs driven by increasing underlying commodity acquisition costs as well as the actual, potential or threatened U.S. and foreign tariffs on key commodities, raw materials and manufacturing equipment. Ongoing uncertainty around interest rates may further impact economic growth and consumer spending resulting in reduced demand for private brand and branded snack products, including snack nuts, trail mix and bars. We also continue to operate amid intense industry competition, potential economic downturns in the markets in which we operate and ongoing supply chain volatility. To stay compliant with recent changes in employment laws across states where we operate and remain competitive in attracting qualified talent, we expect our labor costs to continue to increase.

Inflation and Consumer Trends

We continue to face changing marketplace trends that are impacting our categories. Retail prices across snack nuts and trail mix have risen due to increased commodity costs and evolving global trade agreements. These higher prices, paired with general economic uncertainty, are causing consumers to purchase fewer snack products. As a result, sales volumes for snack nuts, recipe nuts, trail mix and bars are declining for the Company and the industry overall. Many consumers are shifting to private brands, more affordable nuts or bars or choosing snacks outside these categories altogether. Consumers are also shifting to more value-focused retailers, such as mass merchandising retailers and club stores, not all of which we distribute or sell to. Additionally, emerging health and wellness trends and priorities may also impact consumers' purchasing behavior, including decreased purchasing of snack foods. In response, we are focusing on our strengths by leveraging our expertise in snack nut and trail mix and bars categories, improving efficiency, innovating in product and packaging and carefully managing trade spending and pricing to support our products.

Tariffs, Supply Chain and Transportation

Global supply chain pressures have eased compared to past fiscal years, but intermittent challenges, delays and extended lead-times still exist for certain raw materials and inputs. Overall packaging and ingredient inflation appears to have moderated into our fiscal 2026, but there is still uncertainty within the supply chain from the U.S. government's tariffs on imports from foreign countries and corresponding retaliatory tariffs from foreign countries. Any incremental import tariffs will increase the cost of certain raw materials we use in our business and our financial performance may be adversely impacted if we cannot pass on the cost increases in the form of price increases to our customers. In November 2025, the U.S. government removed tariffs for several food categories, including cocoa and cashews among others, which have no domestic production. The ultimate impact of tariffs may be difficult to predict as their amount and duration is uncertain, making our planning process more difficult. The threat of tariffs may also have adverse implications to our business and the business of our suppliers and customers. While we do not have direct exposure to suppliers in Venezuela, Russia, Ukraine or Israel, the conflicts and prospects for conflict in these regions could continue to result in volatile commodity markets, supply chain disruptions and increased costs, including shipping costs.

Trucking capacity continues to slowly decline, potentially leading to further instability in the transportation industry. While indicators suggest transportation prices are stabilizing, the overall transportation environment remains unpredictable. Additionally, fuel prices have been unpredictable and may vary depending on the level of economic activity in the areas where we ship and receive shipments and the prevailing price of oil.

Our most significant ingredient requirements include cocoa products, dried fruits, sweeteners, vegetable oils, rolled oats, flour and dairy. Many of these materials and their associated costs are subject to price fluctuations from several factors, including changing commodity markets, other market conditions, demand for raw materials, weather, growing and harvesting conditions, climate change, energy costs, currency fluctuations, supplier capacities, governmental actions, import and export requirements (including tariffs), ongoing political instability and other factors beyond our control.

We focus on remaining agile by identifying risks proactively, modifying inventory and production plans and diversifying our supplier base to mitigate risk of customer order shortages and our supply chain. We continue to proactively manage our business in response to the evolving global economic environment and related uncertainties and intend to take steps to further mitigate impacts to our supply chain as they develop. If unforeseen supply chain pressures emerge or worsen, or we cannot obtain the transportation and labor services needed to obtain raw materials or fulfill customer orders, such shortages and supply chain issues could have an unfavorable impact on net sales and our operations in the remainder of fiscal 2026.

The cocoa supply-demand outlook is showing signs of improvement following three consecutive years of supply deficits, benefiting from recovery in Ivory Coast and Ghana as well as strong exports from Ecuador; however, cocoa prices still remain above long-term averages. Global cocoa supply balances remain historically tight, while consumption data reflects North American demand reductions amid higher prices. Additionally, as costs increase due to these circumstances or due to overall inflationary pressures, there is a further risk we cannot pass (in part or in full) such potential cost increases on to our customers or in a timely manner. If we cannot align our input costs with prices for our products, our financial performance could be impacted adversely.

QUARTERLY HIGHLIGHTS

Our net sales of $314.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 increased $13.7 million, or 4.6%, from our net sales of $301.1 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Net sales for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026 increased by $36.2 million, or 6.3%, to $613.5 million compared to the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2025.

Sales volume, measured as pounds sold to customers, decreased 9.7% compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Sales volume for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026 decreased 5.3% compared to the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2025.

Gross profit increased $6.9 million, and our gross profit margin, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 18.8% for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to 17.4% for the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Gross profit increased $14.5 million, and our gross profit margin increased to 18.5% from 17.1% for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026 compared to the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2025.

Total operating expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 increased by $0.3 million, or 0.9%, compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2025. As a percentage of net sales, total operating expenses in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 decreased to 10.5% from 10.9% for the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Total operating expenses for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026 decreased by $2.1 million, or 3.4%, compared to the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2025.

We have seen acquisition costs for most major nut types, except for walnuts and peanuts, increase in the 2025 crop year (which falls into our current 2026 fiscal year). We completed procurement of inshell walnuts during the first half of fiscal 2026. During the third quarter, we will determine the final prices to be paid to the walnut growers based upon current market prices and other factors such as crop size and export demand. We have estimated the liability to our walnut growers and our walnut inventory costs using currently available information. Any difference between our estimated liability and the actual payments will be determined during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 and will be recognized in our financial results at that time.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Sales

In the second quarter of fiscal 2026, our net sales increased 4.6% to $314.8 million, compared to net sales of $301.1 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025. The net sales increase was primarily driven by a 15.8% increase in weighted average selling price per pound, which was primarily due to higher commodity acquisition costs for all major tree nuts and peanuts. Sales volume, which is defined as pounds sold to customers, decreased 9.7%. Sales volume decreased for all major product types. Approximately half of the sales volume decline was attributable to granola sold in the contract manufacturing channel, which was offset by increases of sales volume of walnuts, almonds and pecans.

For the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026 our net sales were $613.5 million, an increase of $36.2 million, or 6.3%, compared to the same period of fiscal 2025. The increase in net sales was attributable to a 12.2% increase in the weighted average selling price per pound, which was primarily due to higher commodity acquisition costs for all major tree nuts. Sales volume decreased 5.3% compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. Sales volume decreased for bars, granola, trail mix and cashews, while sales volume for walnuts, peanuts, pecans and almonds increased.

The following table summarizes sales by product type as a percentage of total gross sales. The information is based upon gross sales, rather than net sales, because certain adjustments, such as promotional discounts, are not allocable to product type.

Sales of branded products were approximately 17% and 19% of total consumer sales during the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025, respectively. Fisher branded products were approximately 74% and 66% of branded sales during the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025, respectively, with Orchard Valley Harvest and Southern Style Nuts branded products accounting for the majority of the remaining branded product sales.

Net sales in the consumer distribution channel increased $11.8 million, or 4.7%, and sales volume decreased 8.4% in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2025. The sales volume decrease was driven by a 7.9% decrease in private brand sales volume due to lower volume in bars and, to a lesser extent, nuts and trail mix. Nuts and trail mix volume was impacted by higher retail prices, soft demand, including consumer downsizing, and reduced distribution at a major mass merchandiser. These declines were partially offset by new business with an existing customer and improved performance at another mass merchandiser. Bar sales declined as prior year's volumes were elevated by low industry-wide inventory levels and the lingering impact of a national brand recall, which temporarily boosted private label bars demand. A strategic reduction in sales to one grocery retailer also contributed to the bars decline. Branded sales volume decreased 11.2% due to lost distribution of Orchard Valley Harvest at a major non-food customer and the timing of Fisher snack promotions also at a major non-food customer.

In the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026, net sales in the consumer distribution channel increased $24.5 million, or 5.1%, and sales volume decreased 6.8% compared to the same period of fiscal 2025. The sales volume decrease was driven by a 5.5% decrease in private brand sales volume due to lower volume in nuts and trail mix, bars and peanut butter. Nuts and trail mix volume was impacted by higher retail prices, consumer downsizing, soft demand and reduced distribution at a major mass merchandiser. These nuts and trail mix declines were partially offset by new business with an existing customer. Private brand bars declined due the reasons cited in the quarterly comparison, which were partially offset by growth at a current customer. Peanut butter declined due to a product discontinuation at a mass merchandiser. Branded sales volume decreased 14.5% due to lost distribution of Orchard Valley Harvest cited in the quarterly comparison.

Net sales in the commercial ingredients distribution channel increased $1.4 million, or 5.3%, and sales volume decreased by 1.1% in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2025.

In the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026, net sales in the commercial ingredients distribution channel increased $5.7 million, or 10.7%, and sales volume increased 5.8% compared to the same period of fiscal 2025. The sales volume increase was mainly driven by increased sales of peanut crushing stock to peanut oil processors, new business at one customer and higher peanut butter volume at existing food service customers.

Net sales in the contract manufacturing distribution channel increased $0.5 million, or 2.2%, and sales volume decreased 26.5% in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2025. The decrease in sales volume was due to decreased granola processed at the Lakeville facility, which was partially offset by increased snack nut sales to a customer added during the second quarter of the prior year.

In the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026, net sales in the contract manufacturing distribution channel increased $6.0 million, or 13.9%, and sales volume decreased 7.6% compared to the same period of fiscal 2025. The sales volume decrease was due to the reasons cited in the quarterly comparison along with lower peanut and peanut butter to a major customer. This was partially offset by the same increase cited in the quarterly comparison.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased $6.9 million, or 13.2%, to $59.2 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $52.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase in gross profit was due primarily to higher net sales and selling prices more closely aligned with commodity acquisition costs compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Additionally, reduced manufacturing spending and operational efficiencies contributed to the overall gross profit increase. Our gross profit margin, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 18.8% for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to 17.4% for the second quarter of fiscal 2025, mainly due to the factors mentioned previously.

Gross profit was $113.3 million for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026 compared to $98.8 million for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2025 for the same reasons cited in the quarterly comparison. Our gross profit margin, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 18.5% for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026 compared to 17.1% for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2025 mainly due to the factors mentioned previously and a one time pricing concession in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 for a bars customer which did not recur in fiscal 2026.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 increased $0.3 million, or 0.9%, to $33.2 million. Operating expenses decreased to 10.5% of net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to 10.9% of net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2025.

Selling expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 were $21.1 million, a decrease of $1.5 million, or 6.5%, from the second quarter of fiscal 2025. The decrease was driven by a $0.7 million decrease in third-party warehouse costs, a $0.6 million decrease in advertising and consumer insight research expense, a $0.6 million decrease in freight expense, and a $0.7 million decrease in salary and equity compensation expenses. These were partially offset by a $1.4 million increase in incentive compensation expense.

Administrative expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 increased $1.8 million, or 17.4%, to $12.1 million, compared to $10.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase was due to a $2.3 million increase in incentive compensation expense slightly offset by a $0.5 million decrease in loss on asset disposals.

Total operating expenses for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026 decreased by $2.1 million, or 3.4%, to $60.3 million. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 9.8% for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026, compared to 10.8% for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2025.

Selling expenses for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026 were $39.0 million, a decrease of $3.4 million, or 8.1%, from the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2025. The decrease was driven primarily by a $2.0 million decrease in advertising and consumer insight research expense, a $1.4 million decrease in third-party warehouse costs, a $1.2 million decrease in freight expense and a $1.0 million decrease in salary expense. These were partially offset by a $1.7 million increase in incentive compensation expense and a $0.6 million increase in commissions expense.

Administrative expenses for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026 increased $1.3 million, or 6.5%, to $21.2 million compared the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2025. The increase was primarily due to a $2.9 million increase in incentive compensation expense. This was partially offset by a $0.6 million decrease in personnel and recruitment expenses and a $0.6 million decrease in loss on asset disposals.

Income from Operations

Due to the factors discussed above, income from operations was $26.0 million, or 8.3% of net sales, for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $19.4 million, or 6.4% of net sales, for the second quarter of fiscal 2025.

Due to the factors discussed above, income from operations was $53.0 million, or 8.6% of net sales, for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026, compared to $36.4 million, or 6.3% of net sales, for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2025.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $0.5 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $0.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 due to lower average debt levels.

Interest expense was $1.5 million for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026, compared to $1.3 million for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2025.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

General

The primary uses of cash are to fund our current operations, fulfill contractual obligations, pursue our Long-Range Plan through growing our branded and private brand nut and bar businesses, consummate and integrate business acquisitions, return cash to our stockholders through dividends, repay indebtedness and pay amounts owed under the Retirement Plan. Also, various uncertainties, including cost uncertainties, could result in additional or unexpected uses of cash. The primary sources of cash are results of operations and availability under our Credit Facility. Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 and continuing throughout fiscal 2026, we will invest approximately $90.0 million in capital expenditures and related expenses, excluding any applicable tariffs, to acquire and install equipment, and make related infrastructure improvements to expand our production capabilities, increase our efficiency and further enhance our product offerings to our customers. Approximately half of these expenditures are payable to equipment vendors located in Europe, and most of those payments will be denominated in foreign currency. Depending on the level of tariffs in place at the time of delivery, and the potential for unfavorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates, the ultimate cost of such equipment purchases could increase significantly. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, we obtained an equipment loan to finance a portion of this capital investment and intend to fund the remainder with borrowings under our Credit Facility or with available cash generated from our operations. We anticipate that expected net cash flow generated from operations and amounts available pursuant to the Credit Facility and the Equipment Loan (as defined below) will be sufficient to fund our operations and capital expenditures for the next twelve months. Our available credit under our Credit Facility has allowed us to reinvest in the Company through capital expenditures, develop new products, pay cash dividends, consummate strategic investments and business acquisitions and explore other growth strategies outlined in our Long-Range Plan.

Cash flows from operating activities have historically been driven by net income but are also significantly influenced by inventory requirements, which can change based upon fluctuations in both quantities and market prices of the various nuts and nut products we buy and sell. Current market trends in nut prices and crop estimates also impact nut procurement.

Operating Activities Net cash provided by operating activities was $94.6 million for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026 compared to $19.9 million for the comparative period of fiscal 2025. The increase in operating cash flow was due primarily to changes in working capital, primarily decreased inventory and accrued expenses, and a higher net income.

Total inventories were $235.4 million at December 25, 2025, a decrease of $19.2 million, or 7.5%, from the inventory balance at June 26, 2025, and an increase of $29.6 million, or 14.4%, from the inventory balance at December 26, 2024. The decrease in inventories at December 25, 2025 compared to June 26, 2025 was due primarily to lower commodity acquisition costs for walnuts and peanuts and lower on-hand quantities of bars and pecans, partially offset by higher commodity acquisition costs for pecans and almonds and higher on-hand quantities of walnuts and cashews. The increase in inventories at December 25, 2025 compared to December 26, 2024 was due primarily to higher commodity acquisition costs across all major nut types except for peanuts and inshell walnuts, as well as greater on-hand quantities of work in process and finished goods inventory to support forecasted demand.

Raw nut and dried fruit input stocks, some of which are classified as work-in-process, decreased 2.7 million pounds, or 4.5%, at December 25, 2025 compared to December 26, 2024 due to lower quantities of walnuts, almonds and cashews on hand. This reduction was offset partially by higher quantities of peanuts and pecans on hand. The weighted average cost per pound of raw nut input stocks on hand at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2026 increased 11.8% compared to the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2025 due primarily to higher acquisition costs for all major tree nuts except for inshell walnuts, partially offset by lower acquisition cost of peanuts and lower on-hand quantities of almonds and cashews.

Investing Activities Cash used in investing activities was $46.3 million during the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026, compared to $25.6 million for the same period last year. Capital asset purchases were $47.3 million during the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026, compared to $25.5 million for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2025. Partially offsetting the fiscal 2026 cash outflows for capital asset purchases was $1.1 million of net life insurance proceeds received from existing life insurance contracts. We expect total capital expenditures for equipment purchases and upgrades for fiscal 2026 to be approximately $112.0 million based on current foreign currency exchange rates and tariff expectations. This includes all capital expenditures needed for the planned purchase of equipment to expand our production capabilities and related infrastructure improvements as described above, facility maintenance, food safety enhancements and expansion needs for our bars business. We expect to fund these capital purchases through a combination of borrowings under our existing Credit Facility, use of available cash from our operations and an equipment loan financing arrangement obtained in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. Absent any additional material acquisitions or other significant investments, we believe that cash on hand, combined with cash provided by operations, borrowings available under the Credit Facility and our equipment loan financing, will be sufficient to meet the cash requirements for planned capital expenditures.

Financing Activities Cash used in financing activities was $46.5 million during the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026, compared to cash provided of $5.6 million for the same period last year. Net repayments under our Credit Facility were $47.6 million during the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026, compared to net borrowings of $29.3 million for the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2025. Equipment loan proceeds received were $16.9 million in the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026. Dividends paid in the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026 were approximately $6.9 million less than dividends paid in the same period last year.

Real Estate Matters

In August 2008, we completed the consolidation of our Chicago-based facilities into our Elgin headquarters (“Elgin Site”). The Elgin Site includes both an office building and a warehouse. We are currently attempting to find additional tenants for the available space in the office building at the Elgin Site. Until additional tenant(s) are found, we will not receive the benefit of rental income associated with such space. Approximately 81% of the rentable area in the office building is currently vacant. Approximately 29% of the rentable area has not been built-out. There can be no assurance that we will be able to lease the unoccupied space and further capital expenditures will likely be necessary to lease the remaining space.

In April 2024, the Company executed a 7.5 year lease for approximately 445,000 square feet of warehouse space. The warehouse is located in Huntley, IL near the Elgin Site and is primarily utilized to store finished goods inventory and as a distribution center along with light manufacturing.

On January 15, 2026, the Company executed a 10 year lease for the remaining warehouse space of approximately 285,000 square feet at the Huntley location.

Financing Arrangements

Our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated March 5, 2020, as most recently amended on June 16, 2025, provides for a $150.0 million revolving loan commitment and letter of credit subfacility. The Credit Facility has an accrued interest rate based on SOFR plus an applicable margin based upon the borrowing base calculation, ranging from 1.35% to 1.85%. The Credit Facility allows the Company to pay up to $100.0 million in dividends per year, subject to meeting availability test, and is secured by a first priority lien over our accounts receivable and inventory.

Credit Facility

At our election, borrowings under the Credit Facility currently accrue interest at either (i) a rate determined pursuant to the administrative agent’s prime rate plus an applicable margin determined by reference to the amount of loans, which may be advanced under the borrowing base calculation, ranging from 0.25% to 0.75% or (ii) a rate based on SOFR plus an applicable margin as noted above.

At December 25, 2025, the weighted average interest rate for the Credit Facility was 6.7%. The terms of the Credit Facility contain covenants that, among other things, require us to restrict investments, indebtedness, acquisitions and certain sales of assets and limit annual cash dividends or distributions, transactions with affiliates, redemptions of capital stock and prepayment and refinancing of indebtedness (if such prepayment or refinancing, among other things, is of indebtedness under the equipment loan or of a subordinate debt). If loan availability under the borrowing base calculation falls below $25.0 million, we will be required to maintain a specified fixed charge coverage ratio, tested on a monthly basis, until loan availability equals or exceeds $25.0 million for three consecutive months. All cash received from customers is required to be applied against the Credit Facility. The lenders under the Credit Facility have the option to accelerate and demand immediate repayment of our obligations under the Credit Facility in the event of default on the payments required under the Credit Facility, a change in control in the ownership of the Company, non-compliance with the financial covenant or upon the occurrence of other defaults by us under the Credit Facility. As of December 25, 2025, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility and we currently expect to be in compliance with the financial covenant in the Credit Facility for the foreseeable future. At December 25, 2025, we had $134.7 million of available credit under the Credit Facility. If this entire amount were borrowed at December 25, 2025, we would still be in compliance with all restrictive covenants under the Credit Facility.

Selma Property

In September 2006, we sold our Selma, Texas properties (the “Selma Properties”) to two related party partnerships for $14.3 million and are leasing them back. The selling price was determined by an independent appraiser to be the fair market value which also approximated our carrying value. The lease for the Selma Properties has a ten-year term at a fair market value rent with three five-year renewal options. In September 2015, we exercised two of the five-year renewal options which extended the lease term to September 2026 and the base monthly lease amount increased to approximately $114,000. On December 30, 2025 we exercised the final remaining five-year renewal option which extended the lease term to September 2031. The base monthly lease payment will increase to approximately $121,000 beginning in October 2026. Also, we have an option to purchase the Selma Properties from the owner at 95% (100% in certain circumstances) of the then fair market value, but not less than the original $14.3 million purchase price. The provisions of the arrangement are not eligible for sale-leaseback accounting and the $14.3 million was recorded as a debt obligation. No gain or loss was recorded on the Selma Properties transaction. As of December 25, 2025, $6.0 million of the debt obligation was outstanding.

Equipment Loan

On June 16, 2025, the Company entered into a financing agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. which allows the Company to finance up to $50.0 million for the purchase of equipment to further expand our production capabilities, increase our efficiency and further enhance our product offerings to our customers (the “Equipment Loan”). The Equipment Loan is provided under a master loan agreement and related equipment schedule(s) and is secured under a Security Agreement that provides for a first priority lien on all equipment and a second priority lien on our accounts receivable and inventory. The Company will be required to make sixty equal monthly payments comprised of principal and interest starting upon distribution of the final loan proceeds which is expected to occur in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026. The fixed interest rate (SOFR plus an applicable margin of 1.49%) will be calculated at that point in time as well. The Equipment Loan contains a graded prepayment penalty if the loan is paid off within 36 months of commencement. The Company will make monthly interest-only payments of SOFR plus an applicable margin of 1.60% prior to the delivery and acceptance of the equipment and distribution of the final loan proceeds, which will be capitalized as part of the

equipment acquisition cost. As of December 25, 2025, $26.2 million of the debt obligation under the Equipment Loan was outstanding.

FAQ

How did John B. Sanfilippo & Son (JBSS) perform financially in Q2 fiscal 2026?

JBSS grew Q2 fiscal 2026 net sales to $314.8 million, up 4.6% year over year, driven by higher average selling prices. Net income increased to $17.957 million, and diluted EPS reached $1.53, with gross margin expanding to 18.8% on improved pricing and efficiencies.

What were John B. Sanfilippo & Son’s results for the first half of fiscal 2026?

For the first twenty-six weeks of fiscal 2026, JBSS generated net sales of $613.460 million, up 6.3% from the prior year. Net income rose to $36.683 million, with diluted EPS of $3.12, and gross margin improved to 18.5%, reflecting better alignment of pricing with commodity costs.

How are sales volumes and pricing trends affecting JBSS’s results?

Sales volume, measured in pounds sold, declined 9.7% in Q2 and 5.3% in the first half versus last year. However, weighted average selling price per pound increased 15.8% in Q2 and 12.2% for the first half, more than offsetting volume declines and supporting higher net sales and margins.

What is the financial position of John B. Sanfilippo & Son regarding debt and liquidity?

At December 25, 2025, JBSS had total current and long-term debt of $32.145 million, including $26.2 million under an equipment loan and $10.0 million of revolver borrowings. Available credit under the $150 million revolving facility was $134.745 million, and the company was in covenant compliance.

How did JBSS’s cash flow and capital expenditures evolve in the first half of fiscal 2026?

Net cash provided by operating activities rose sharply to $94.625 million in the first half of fiscal 2026, from $19.916 million a year earlier. The company invested $47.323 million in property, plant and equipment, mainly to expand production capabilities and improve efficiency across nut and bar operations.

What inventory trends did John B. Sanfilippo & Son report?
