J&J SNACK FOODS’ RECORD SECOND QUARTER

NET SALES INCREASE 10% TO $281.5M

Pennsauken, NJ, May 2, 2022 - J&J Snack Foods Corp. (NASDAQ: JJSF) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended March 26, 2022.         

Dan Fachner, J&J Snack Foods President and CEO, commented, “J&J Snack Foods’ record second quarter net sales increased 10% year-over-year and by 2% versus the same period in fiscal 2019, exceeding pre-COVID levels for the third consecutive quarter. We had a number of accomplishments throughout the quarter including new customer wins, successful product launches and expanding product distribution. We delivered our best second quarter sales in company history despite the unexpected challenges related to the early-February implementation of a new enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system. This system implementation only affected our Food Service and Retail segments and was intentionally planned at this time since it’s our slowest volume quarter. This investment is a critical step in our long-term strategy to automate our business establishing the foundation for transforming our supply chain. It provides a seamless, integrated process from raw materials through production, warehousing, inventory management, and electronic order fulfillment. We did experience operational and supply chain challenges due to this implementation and estimate that these issues had a negative, one-time impact on fiscal second quarter sales of approximately $20 million and on fiscal second quarter operating income of approximately $4.5 million. I am proud of how the team worked tirelessly to resolve these issues and already see our business bouncing back in April. We do not anticipate any further material impact going forward.”

“Consumer spending remains healthy despite macroeconomic challenges, and we continue to see strong demand for our products as a growing number of consumers return to their favorite amusement parks, restaurants, retailers and outdoor venues. Second quarter net sales in our Frozen Beverages segment, which was not impacted by the ERP transition, increased 50% year-over-year, driven by over 90% growth in frozen beverage sales, which is an indirect indicator of the demand opportunity we are experiencing across our core products.”

“As was the case last quarter, sustained significant inflationary pressures continue driving up prices across the entire supply and production chain, including raw materials, packaging, and distribution. We are taking aggressive measures to offset these cost challenges, including strategic cost reduction initiatives in procurement, R&D, production and distribution. We are confident these actions, combined with our most recent price increases, which became effective in early April, will begin to help offset the impact of these costs increases in the back half of the year.”

“These initiatives will strengthen our operating infrastructure and standardize processes across key business functions resulting in increased efficiencies, reduced costs and improved margins. Our commitment to driving operational excellence across the business is a key part of our long-term growth strategy and will deliver meaningful benefits to our customers and shareholders today and for many years to come.”

“In summary, we are grateful to our customers for their patience and loyalty as we worked to resolve the ERP transition issues in the second quarter. The experience of our team, investments in our operating discipline and the strength of our brands, have us well positioned in the snack food marketplace to accelerate growth and continue enhancing shareholder value. Looking ahead, the overall industry environment and consumer spending remain very strong despite rising prices, and we expect the operating and financial benefits of our recent initiatives will become more visible as we move into the second half of fiscal 2022.”

Total Company Second Quarter Highlights

Net sales increased 10% to $281.5 million in Q2 of fiscal 2022, compared to Q2 of fiscal 2021, and by 1.9%, compared of Q2 of fiscal 2019.

Key highlights include:

Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 23.2% in Q2 ’22, compared to 23.8% in Q2 ’21, reflecting the significant cost headwinds our industry continues to face. Inflation continued to build over the quarter increasing over 10% from our recent Q1, and further pressuring margins. This impact was especially pronounced in key raw material purchases like flour, oils, eggs, dairy, chocolates, and meats, as well as packaging and fuel. We have pricing and cost initiatives in place to offset these cost pressures, though we do not expect to see most of the benefits on our margins until Q3 and beyond.

Total operating expenses were 21.8% of sales for the quarter, an increase of 81 bps, compared to Q2 ’21. Expenses continued to be negatively impacted by industry-wide freight and distribution cost increases. Distribution costs were 10.1% of sales in the quarter, versus 9.9% in the prior year period, while marketing and selling expenses remained at 7.5% of sales. Administrative expenses were 4.2% of sales in Q2 ’22, compared to 3.6% in Q2 ’21.

Operating income was $4.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, compared to $7.2 million in the prior year period, largely driven by the ERP conversion challenges and the continued historic inflationary environment. Net earnings in Q2 ’22 was $3.3 million, compared to $6.1 million in Q2 ’21. Our effective tax rate was 22% in Q2 ’22.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

It is important to note that Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Management believes that this measure is useful as a way to evaluate the Company and the means for Management to evaluate our performance and operations. Management believes that this measure is useful to an investor in evaluating our performance because it is widely used in the food and beverage industry.

A certain adjusted non-GAAP financial measure is presented in this release. Management believes this adjusted non-GAAP measure provides useful information to Management and investors by excluding certain income, expenses, and gains and losses that may not be indicative of the Company’s core operating and financial results. Similarly, Management believes this adjusted measure is a useful performance measure because certain items included in the calculation of net earnings may either mask or exaggerate trends in the Company’s ongoing operating performance. Further, the reconciliation corresponding to this adjusted measure, by identifying individual adjustments, provides a useful mechanism for investors to consider this adjusted measure with some, or all, of the identified adjustments.

Management uses this non-GAAP financial measure on an ongoing basis to help track and assess the Company’s financial performance. You, however, should not consider non-GAAP measures in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings, operating income, or any other measure for determining our operating performance that is calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. This non-GAAP measure is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. The accompanying financial tables provide reconciliations to the nearest GAAP measure of all non-GAAP measures provided in this release.
