Executive Summary (vs. year-ago, second quarter results):
“Third quarter results delivered solid sales and earnings growth despite persistent inflationary pressures that led to another large non-cash LIFO charge." stated Paul Palmby, President and Chief Executive Officer of Seneca Foods. "Cost increases, particularly for raw materials and labor, have necessitated pricing actions to minimize the impact of inflation on our results. Additionally, our team has worked diligently to mitigate the supply chain challenges we have faced.”

Note 1: | The effect of the LIFO inventory valuation method on the third quarter pre-tax results decreased operating earnings by $30.9 million and $19.0 million for the three month periods ended December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, respectively. The effect of the LIFO inventory valuation method on YTD nine month pre-tax results decreased operating earnings by $79.3 million and $30.7 million for the nine month periods ended December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, respectively. | |||||||
Note 2: | During the three months ended December 31, 2022, the Company ceased production of green beans at one of its New York facilities. As a result, the Company incurred severance costs and also a write down of production equipment that will be sold in the next twelve months. | |||||||
Note 3: | The Company had net other operating expense of $0.2 million during the three months ended December 31, 2022, which was driven primarily by a write down of idle production equipment to estimated selling price, less commission, as the assets met the criteria to be classified as held for sale at December 31, 2022. The write down was partially offset by a gain on the sale of an aircraft. During the three months ended January 1, 2022, the Company had net other operating expense of $0.4 million, driven mostly by various miscellaneous expenses related to properties that were classified as held for sale during the prior year interim period. During the nine months ended December 31, 2022, the Company had net other operating income of $2.4 million, which was driven primarily by a gain on the sale of the Company’s western trucking fleet amongst other fixed assets and a true-up of the supplemental early retirement plan accrual, partially offset by the aforementioned write down of production equipment. During the nine months ended January 1, 2022, the Company had net other operating expense of $0.7 million, driven mostly by a charge for a supplemental early retirement plan offset by a gain on the sale of an aircraft. | |||||||
Note 4: | The Company used the “two-class” method for basic earnings per share by dividing the earning attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average of common shares outstanding during the period. |
