NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2011

(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein have been prepared by TreeHouse Foods, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) applicable to quarterly reporting on Form 10-Q. In our opinion, these statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of all interim periods reported herein. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. Certain product sales, as disclosed in Note 20, from prior year have been reclassified and certain line items on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the prior year have been combined to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported net income, total assets, or cash flows. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results.

The preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires us to use our judgment to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

A detailed description of the Company’s significant accounting policies can be found in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On September 21, 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-09, Employer’s Participation in Multiemployer Plans which increases the quantitative and qualitative disclosures an employer is required to provide about its participation in significant multiemployer plans that offer pension and other postretirement benefits. This ASU does not change current accounting and thus the Company does not believe this ASU will have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. This ASU is effective for fiscal years ended on or after December 15, 2011.

On September 15, 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment which provides entities the option of performing a qualitative assessment of goodwill before calculating the fair value of a reporting unit in Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test. If an entity determines, based on the qualitative factors, that the fair value of a reporting unit is more likely than not less than the carrying amount, the two-step impairment test would be required. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. This literature does not change how goodwill is accounted for, and thus the Company does not believe this ASU will have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

On June 16, 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income which revises the manner in which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements. This ASU removes the current presentation guidance and requires comprehensive income to be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or two separate but consecutive statements. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. ASU 2011-05 does not change current accounting and therefore is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

On May 12, 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. This ASU provides converged guidance on how (not when) to measure fair value. The ASU provides expanded disclosure requirements and other amendments, including those that eliminate unnecessary wording differences between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs). This ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s disclosures or fair value measurements.

3. Facility Closings

On February 28, 2011, the Company announced plans to close its pickle plant in Springfield, Missouri. Production ceased in August 2011 and has been transferred to other pickle facilities. Full plant closure is expected to occur by December 31, 2011. For the three

6

and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company recorded costs of $1.4 million and $4.6 million, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2011, costs consisted of $0.4 million for severance and other costs, $0.1 million for fixed asset impairments and $0.9 million for disposal costs. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, costs relating to this closure consisted of a fixed asset impairment charge of $2.4 million to reduce the carrying value of the facility to net realizable value, $0.6 million for severance and other costs, and $1.6 million for disposal costs. These costs are included in Other operating expense, net line in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Total costs are expected to be approximately $5.0 million. Components of the charges include $3.8 million for asset write-offs and removal of certain manufacturing equipment, $0.8 million in severance and other charges, and $0.4 million in costs to transfer inventory to other manufacturing facilities. The Company estimates that approximately $2.6 million of the charges will be in cash and incurred in 2011. The Company has accrued severance costs of approximately $0.3 million as of September 30, 2011 consisting of expense of $0.4 million less payments of $0.1 million.

4. Acquisitions

On October 28, 2010, the Company acquired S.T. Specialty Foods, Inc (S.T. Foods), a wholly owned subsidiary of STSF Holdings, Inc. (“Holdings”) by acquiring all of the outstanding securities of Holdings for approximately $180 million in cash. The acquisition was funded by the Company’s revolving credit facility. S.T. Foods, has annual net sales of approximately $100 million and is a manufacturer of private label macaroni and cheese, skillet dinners and other value-added side dishes. The acquisition added additional categories to our product portfolio for the retail grocery channel.

The Company’s purchase price allocation as set forth in the Company’s Annual Report of Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 was preliminary and subject to tax adjustments that were finalized during the third quarter of 2011.

On March 2, 2010, the Company acquired Sturm Foods, Inc. (“Sturm”), a private label manufacturer of hot cereals and powdered soft drink mixes that services retail and foodservice customers in the United States. The acquisition of Sturm has strengthened the Company’s presence in private label dry grocery categories.

Revolving Credit Facility — On September 23, 2011, the Company entered into Amendment No.1 (“Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and the group of other participating lenders. The amendment, among other things, extends the maturity of the revolving credit facility to September 23, 2016, and adjusts the interest rates. The interest rates under the Credit Agreement are based on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, and are determined by either LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.60% or a base rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.60%. In addition, a facility fee ranging from 0.25% to 0.40% is due quarterly on the aggregate commitment under the revolving credit facility. The Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility has an aggregate commitment of $750 million, of which $256.5 million was available as of September 30, 2011. As of September 30, 2011, there were $9.2 million in letters of credit under the revolving credit facility that were issued but undrawn. The revolving credit facility contains various financial and other restrictive covenants and requires that the Company maintains certain financial ratios, including a leverage and interest coverage ratio. The Company is in compliance with all applicable covenants as of September 30, 2011. The Company’s average interest rate on debt outstanding under the revolving credit facility for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was 2.09% and 2.14%, respectively.

High Yield Notes — The Company’s 7.75% high yield notes in aggregate principal amount of $400 million are due March 1, 2018 (the “Notes”). The Notes are guaranteed by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries Bay Valley Foods, LLC; EDS Holdings, LLC; Sturm Foods, Inc.; STSF Holdings, Inc. and S.T. Specialty Foods, Inc. and certain other of our subsidiaries that may become guarantors from time to time in accordance with the applicable Indenture and may fully, jointly, severally and unconditionally guarantee our payment obligations under any series of debt securities offered. The Indenture governing the Notes provides, among other things, that the Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of the Company. The Indenture contains various restrictive covenants of which the Company is in compliance as of September 30, 2011.

Senior Notes — The Company has outstanding $100 million in aggregate principal of 6.03% senior notes due September 30, 2013, issued in a private placement pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement among the Company and a group of purchasers. The Note Purchase Agreement contains covenants that will limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, merge with other entities, change the nature of the business, create liens, incur additional indebtedness or sell assets. The Note Purchase Agreement also requires the Company to maintain certain financial ratios. The Company is in compliance with the applicable covenants as of September 30, 2011.

Tax Increment Financing —The Company owes $2.3 million related to redevelopment bonds pursuant to a Tax Increment Financing Plan and has agreed to make certain payments with respect to the principal amount of the bonds through May 2019.

11. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the number of weighted average common shares outstanding during the reporting period. The weighted average number of common shares used in the diluted earnings per share calculation is determined using the treasury stock method and includes the incremental effect related to outstanding stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance units.

The following table summarizes the effect of the share-based compensation awards on the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in calculating diluted earnings per share:

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2011		2010		2011		2010
	(In thousands)				(In thousands)

Weighted average diluted common shares outstanding		36,911		36,373		36,894		35,935

(1) Incremental shares from stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and performance units are computed by the treasury stock method. Stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and performance units excluded from our computation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive, were 110.2 thousand and 240.7 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, and 132.9 thousand and 132.8 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively.

12. Stock-Based Compensation

Income before income taxes for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 includes share-based compensation expense of $3.1 million, $12.6 million, $4.0 million and $11.8 million, respectively. The tax benefit recognized related to the compensation cost of these share-based awards was approximately $1.2 million, $4.9 million, $1.5 million and $4.6 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The following table summarizes stock option activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Stock options are granted under our long-term incentive plan, and have a three year vesting schedule, which vest one-third on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date. Stock options expire ten years from the grant date.

Compensation costs related to unvested options totaled $3.4 million at September 30, 2011 and will be recognized over the remaining vesting period of the grants, which averages 2.3 years. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value its stock option awards. The assumptions used to calculate the fair value of stock options issued in 2011 include the following: expected volatility of 33.35%, expected term of six years, risk free rate of 2.57% and no dividends. The average grant date fair value of stock options granted in the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $20.36. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was approximately $3.1 million.

In addition to stock options, the Company also grants restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance unit awards. These awards are granted under our long-term incentive plan. Employee restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards generally vest based on the passage of time. These awards generally vest one-third on each anniversary of the grant date. Director restricted stock units vest over thirteen months. Certain directors have deferred receipt of their awards until their departure from the Board. A complete description of restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards is presented in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. The following table summarizes the restricted stock and restricted stock unit activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2011:

	Employee Restricted Stock			Weighted Average     Grant Date     Fair Value		Employee Restricted Stock Units			Weighted Average     Grant Date     Fair Value		Director Restricted Stock Units			Weighted Average   Grant Date   Fair Value

Future compensation costs related to restricted stock and restricted stock units is approximately $13.5 million as of September 30, 2011, and will be recognized on a weighted average basis, over the next 2.0 years. The grant date fair value of the awards granted in 2011 is equal to the Company’s closing stock price on the grant date.

Performance unit awards are granted to certain members of management. These awards contain service and performance conditions. For each of the three performance periods, one third of the units will accrue, multiplied by a predefined percentage between 0% and 200%, depending on the achievement of certain operating performance measures. Additionally, for the cumulative performance period, a number of units will accrue, equal to the number of units granted multiplied by a predefined percentage between 0% and 200%, depending on the achievement of certain operating performance measures, less any units previously accrued. Accrued units will be converted to stock or cash, at the discretion of the compensation committee, generally, on the third anniversary of the grant date. The Company intends to settle these awards in stock and has the shares available to do so. As of September 30, 2011, based on achievement of operating performance measures, 72,900 performance units were converted into 145,800 shares of stock. Conversion of these shares was based on attainment of at least 120% of the target performance goals, and resulted in the vesting awards being converted into two shares of stock for each performance unit. The following table summarizes the performance unit activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2011:

	Performance Units			Weighted Average     Grant Date     Fair Value
	(In thousands)
Unvested, at December 31, 2010		165		$	30.87

18. Derivative Instruments

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed by derivative instruments include interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and commodity price risk.

Interest rate swaps are entered into to manage interest rate risk associated with the Company’s $750 million revolving credit facility. Interest on our credit facility is variable and use of interest rate swaps establishes a fixed rate over the term of a portion of the facility. The Company’s objective in using an interest rate swap is to establish a fixed interest rate, thereby enabling the Company to predict and manage interest expense and cash flows in a more efficient and effective manner.

The Company had a $50 million interest rate swap agreement that swapped floating rate debt for a fixed rate of 2.9% and expired August 19, 2011. The Company did not apply hedge accounting and recorded the fair value of this instrument on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recorded income of $0.2 million, $0.9 million, $1.1 million and $3.0 million related to the mark to market adjustment in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, within the Other expense (income), net line of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company also recorded settlement losses of $0.2 million, $0.9 million, $1.3 million and $4.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, within the interest expense line of Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Due to the Company’s operations in Canada, we are exposed to foreign currency risks. The Company enters into foreign currency contracts to manage the risk associated with foreign currency cash flows. The Company’s objective in using foreign currency contracts is to establish a fixed foreign currency exchange rate for the net cash flow requirements for purchases that are denominated in U.S. dollars. These contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting and changes in their fair value are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, within the loss on foreign currency exchange line. The Company realized a gain of approximately $1.5 million and $1.6 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively related to mark to market adjustments which we recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income, within the Other expense (income), net line. There were no mark to market adjustments in the first nine months of 2010.

Commodity price risk is managed, in part, by using derivatives such as commodity swaps, the objective of which is to establish a fixed commodity cost over the term of the contracts.

As of September 30, 2011, the Company had three types of commodity swap contracts outstanding, diesel fuel, oil and high density polyethylene (“HDPE”). The Company entered into diesel fuel swap contracts on June 30, 2011 to manage the Company’s risk associated with the underlying cost of diesel fuel used to deliver products. The contracts for oil and HDPE are used to manage the Company’s risk associated with the underlying commodity cost of a significant component used in packaging materials.

As of September 30, 2011, the Company had 0.9 million gallons outstanding under diesel contracts, settling in the fourth quarter of 2011. As of September 30, 2011, the Company had 0.9 million pounds outstanding under the HDPE swap settling in the fourth quarter of 2011. As of September 30, 2011 the Company had 18 thousand barrels of oil outstanding under the oil swap settling in the first quarter of 2012.

The Company did not apply hedge accounting to the commodity swaps, and they are recorded at fair value on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. For the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company realized a loss of $0.8 million and a gain of $0.4 million, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 a loss of $0.7 million, and a gain of $0.2 million, respectively, related to mark to market adjustments, which are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income, within the Other expense (income), net line. The Company recorded settlement gains of $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and a loss of $18 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010. Settlement gains and losses are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income within the Cost of sales line for the HDPE swap and the Selling and distribution line for the diesel swap.

19. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable are financial assets with carrying values that approximate fair value. Accounts payable are financial liabilities with carrying values that approximate fair value. As of September 30, 2011, the outstanding balance of the Company’s variable rate debt (revolving credit facility) was $484.3 million, the fair value of which is estimated to be $487.7 million, using a present value technique and market based interest rates and credit spreads. As of September 30, 2011, the carrying value of the Company’s fixed rate senior notes was $100.0 million and fair value was estimated to be $98.7 million based on a present value technique using market based interest rates and credit spreads. The fair value of the Company’s 7.75% high yield notes, with an outstanding balance of $400.0 million as of September 30, 2011, was estimated at $419.0 million, based on quoted market prices.

The fair value of the Company’s commodity contracts as described in Note 18 was a net liability of approximately $0.4 million as of September 30, 2011. The fair value of the commodity contracts were determined using Level 2 inputs. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for an asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

The fair value of the Company’s foreign exchange contracts as described in Note 18 was an asset of $1.4 million as of September 30, 2011, using Level 2 inputs, comparing the foreign exchange rate of our contracts to the spot rate as of September 30, 2011.

20. Segment Information

The Company manages operations on a company-wide basis, thereby making determinations as to the allocation of resources in total rather than on a segment-level basis. The Company has designated reportable segments based on how management views its business. The Company does not segregate assets between segments for internal reporting. Therefore, asset-related information has not been presented. The reportable segments, as presented below, are consistent with the manner in which the Company reports its results to the Chief Operating Decision maker.

The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on net sales dollars, gross profit and direct operating income (gross profit less freight out, sales commissions and direct selling and marketing expenses). The amounts in the following tables are obtained from reports used by senior management and do not include allocated income taxes. Other expenses not allocated include unallocated selling and distribution expenses and corporate expenses which consist of general and administrative expenses, amortization expense, other operating (income) expense, and other expense (income). The accounting policies of the Company’s segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies set forth in Note 1 to our 2010 Consolidated Financial Statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

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

Business Overview

TreeHouse is a food manufacturer servicing primarily the retail grocery and foodservice distribution channels. Its products include non-dairy powdered coffee creamers; canned soups; salad dressings and sauces; sugar free drink mixes and sticks; instant oatmeal and hot cereals; macaroni and cheese; skillet dinners; Mexican sauces; jams and pie fillings; pickles and related products; aseptic sauces; refrigerated salad dressings; and liquid non-dairy creamer. TreeHouse believes it is the largest manufacturer of pickles and non-dairy powdered creamer in the United States and the largest manufacturer of private label salad dressings, drink mixes and instant hot cereals in the United States and Canada based on sales volume.

The following discussion and analysis presents the factors that had a material effect on our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. Also discussed is our financial position as of the end of those periods. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes to those Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report. This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements. See “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these statements.

We discuss the following segments in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations: North American Retail Grocery, Food Away From Home, and Industrial and Export. The key performance indicators of our segments are net sales dollars, gross profit and direct operating income, which is gross profit less the cost of transporting products to customer locations (referred to in the tables below as “freight out”), commissions paid to independent sales brokers, and direct selling and marketing expenses.

Our current operations consist of the following:

North American Retail Grocery — Our North American Retail Grocery segment sells branded and private label products to customers within the United States and Canada. These products include non-dairy powdered creamers; condensed and ready to serve soups, broths and gravies; salad dressings and sauces; pickles and related products; Mexican sauces; jams and pie fillings; aseptic products; liquid non-dairy creamer; powdered drinks; hot cereals; macaroni and cheese and skillet dinners.

Food Away from Home — Our Food Away From Home segment sells non-dairy powdered creamers, pickle products, Mexican sauces, refrigerated dressings, aseptic products and hot cereals to foodservice customers, including restaurant chains and food distribution companies, within the United States and Canada.

Industrial and Export — Our Industrial and Export segment includes the Company’s co-pack business and non-dairy powdered creamer sales to industrial customers for use in industrial applications, including products for repackaging in portion control packages and for use as ingredients by other food manufacturers; pickles; Mexican sauces; infant feeding products and refrigerated dressings. Export sales are primarily to industrial customers outside of North America.

The Company continues its effort to focus on volume, cost containment and margin improvement. This strategy combined with the acquisitions of Sturm and S.T. Foods, has increased our net sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 by approximately 13.7% and 15.8%, respectively, versus the same periods last year. However, the Company has been challenged by rising input and distribution costs that have caused our direct operating income margins to decrease from 17.7% in the third quarter of 2010 to 17.4% in the third quarter of 2011. Direct operating income margins for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 were 16.7% and 16.9%, respectively. The Company increased prices in the third quarter to offset the increases to ingredient and packaging costs. See “Input Costs” for further discussion.

With the success to date of the Company’s ongoing ERP systems implementation, a decision was made to accelerate the conversion of the Sturm and S.T. Foods acquisitions to SAP, while maintaining an aggressive rollout to our distribution centers and manufacturing facilities.

On February 28, 2011, the Company announced plans to close its pickle plant in Springfield, Missouri. Production at the facility ceased in August 2011 and will be consolidated at other pickle facilities. Full plant closure is expected to occur by December 31, 2011. Total costs are expected to be approximately $5.0 million. Components of the charges include $3.8 million for asset write-offs and removal of certain manufacturing equipment, approximately $0.8 million in severance and other charges, and $0.4 million in costs to transfer inventory to other manufacturing facilities.

Recent Developments

On September 23, 2011, the Company entered into Amendment No.1 (“Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and the group of other participating lenders. The amendment, among other things, extends the maturity of the revolving credit facility to September 23, 2016, and adjusts the interest rates. The interest rates under the Credit Agreement are based on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, and are determined by either LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.60% or a base rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.60%. In addition, a facility fee ranging from 0.25% to 0.40% is due quarterly on the aggregate commitment under the revolving credit facility. The aggregate commitment remains at $750 million, of which $256.5 million was available as of September 30, 2011.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2011 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2010

Net Sales — Third quarter net sales increased 13.7% to $528.1 million in 2011 compared to $464.2 million in the third quarter of 2010. The increase is partially driven by the acquisition of S.T. Foods in 2010 and price increases to offset increasing input costs. Net sales by segment are shown in the following table:

	Three Months Ended September 30,
					$ Increase/			% Increase/

Cost of Sales — All expenses incurred to bring a product to completion are included in cost of sales. These costs include raw materials, ingredient and packaging costs, labor costs, facility and equipment costs, costs to operate and maintain our warehouses, and costs associated with transporting our finished products from our manufacturing facilities to distribution centers. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was 76.2% in the third quarter of 2011 compared to 76.3% in 2010, as higher ingredient and packaging costs were offset by increased selling prices.

Operating Expenses — Total operating expenses were $72.9 million during the third quarter of 2011 compared to $62.4 million in 2010. The increase in 2011 resulted from the following:

Selling and distribution expenses increased $6.2 million or 21.5% in the third quarter of 2011 compared to 2010 primarily due to the addition of S.T. Foods, increases in distribution costs and increased volume. Selling and distribution expenses as a percentage of total revenues increased to 6.6% in 2011 from 6.2% in 2010, mainly due to increases in distribution costs.

General and administrative expenses increased $1.8 million in the third quarter of 2011 compared to 2010. The increase is primarily related to incremental general and administrative costs of S.T. Foods and costs related to the ERP systems implementation, offset by reduced incentive compensation and acquisition costs.

Other operating expenses were $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2011 consisting primarily of facility closing costs of the Springfield, Missouri pickle plant and costs associated with the consolidation of the Company’s distribution network, compared to $1.1 million in 2010 due to costs associated with the exit of a third party warehouse and the realignment of the infant feeding business.

Amortization expense increased $1.8 million in the third quarter of 2011 compared to 2010, due primarily to the additional intangible assets acquired in the S.T. Foods acquisition and amortization of capitalized ERP system costs.

Interest Expense, net — Interest expense was $12.6 million in the third quarter of 2011, compared to $12.9 million in 2010. The decrease was primarily due to the expiration of an interest rate swap contract which had locked in a portion of our floating rate debt at a higher fixed interest rate offset by an increase in debt resulting from the S.T. Foods acquisition and higher borrowing costs.

Foreign Currency — The Company’s foreign currency gain was $5.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to a gain of $46 thousand in 2010, due to fluctuations in currency exchange rates between the U.S. and Canadian dollar.

Income Taxes — Income tax expense was recorded at an effective rate of 32.6% in the third quarter of 2011 compared to 32.4% in the prior year’s quarter.

The increase in net sales from 2010 to 2011 resulted primarily from the acquisition of S.T. Foods in 2010, higher volume, price increases and foreign currency fluctuations partially offset by an unfavorable product mix. Overall volume is higher in the third quarter of 2011 compared to that of 2010, primarily due to increases in sales of dressings, non-dairy creamer, jams and hot cereals.

Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales increased to 75.4% in the third quarter of 2011 from 74.1% in 2010 primarily due to higher ingredient and packaging costs and warehouse start-up costs partially offset by price increases.

Freight out and commissions paid to independent sales brokers were $18.4 million in the third quarter of 2011 compared to $14.0 million in 2010, an increase of 30.8%, primarily due to the addition of S.T. Foods and increases in distribution costs.

Direct selling and marketing expenses were approximately $7.8 million in the third quarter of 2011 and $7.9 million in 2010.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010

Net Sales — Net sales increased 15.8% to $1,514.2 million in the first nine months of 2011 compared to $1,307.6 million in the first nine months of 2010. The increase is driven by the acquisitions of Sturm and S.T. Foods in 2010, increases in pricing needed to offset higher input costs, favorable foreign currency exchange rates between the U.S. and Canadian dollar and a favorable product mix. Net sales by segment are shown in the following table:

Cost of Sales — All expenses incurred to bring a product to completion are included in cost of sales. These costs include raw materials, ingredient and packaging costs, labor costs, facility and equipment costs, costs to operate and maintain our warehouses, and costs associated with transporting our finished products from our manufacturing facilities to distribution centers. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was 76.5% in the first nine months of 2011 compared to 76.7% in 2010. Contributing to the reduction in cost of sales, as a percent of net sales, is a favorable mix of sales from Sturm and S.T. Foods, partially offset by lower margins in legacy product categories resulting from an increase in ingredient and packaging costs and warehouse start-up costs associated with the consolidation of the Company’s distribution network. The underlying commodity cost of most raw materials and packaging supplies has increased in the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and has been offset by increases in selling prices in the third quarter.

Operating Expenses — Total operating expenses were $224.9 million during the first nine months of 2011 compared to $185.2 million in 2010. The increase in 2011 resulted from the following:

Selling and distribution expenses increased $20.3 million or 23.5% in the first nine months of 2011 compared to 2010 primarily due to the addition of Sturm and S.T. Foods. Selling and distribution expenses as a percentage of total revenues increased to 7.0% in 2011 from 6.6% in 2010, mainly due to increases in distribution costs.

General and administrative expenses increased $8.1 million in the first nine months of 2011 compared to 2010. The increase is primarily related to incremental general and administrative costs of Sturm and S.T. Foods and costs related to the ERP systems implementation partially offset by reduced incentive compensation and acquisition costs.

Amortization expense increased $6.4 million in the first nine months of 2011 compared to 2010, due primarily to the additional intangible assets acquired in the Sturm and S.T. Foods acquisitions and amortization of capitalized ERP systems cost.

Other operating expense was $5.7 million in the first nine months of 2011 compared to $0.9 million in the first nine months of 2010. Expense in 2011 relates to facility closings, primarily the closing of the Springfield, Missouri pickle plant. Expense in 2010 was primarily related to costs associated with the realignment of the infant feeding business, offset by the postretirement benefit plan curtailment at our Dixon facility.

Interest Expense, net — Interest expense increased to $39.9 million in the first nine months of 2011, compared to $31.5 million in 2010, primarily due to an increase in debt resulting from the Sturm and S.T. Foods acquisitions and higher borrowing costs offset by the expiration of an interest rate swap contract which had locked in a portion of our floating rate debt at a higher fixed interest rate.

Foreign Currency — The Company’s foreign currency gain was $5.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to a gain of $2.1 million in 2010, due to fluctuations in currency exchange rates between the U.S. and Canadian dollar.

Income Taxes — Income tax expense was recorded at an effective rate of 33.0% in the first nine months of 2011 compared to 32.9% in 2010. The Company’s effective tax rate is favorably impacted by an intercompany financing structure with its Canadian subsidiary E.D. Smith.

Net sales decreased during the first nine months of 2011 compared to 2010 primarily due to decreases in volume in our sales of low margin processed pickles partially offset by the acquisition of Sturm, foreign currency fluctuations, increased pricing and a positive product mix.

Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased to 79.5% in the first nine months of 2011 from 79.6% in 2010, as increases in raw material, ingredient and packaging costs were offset by the exiting certain low margin processed pickle business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow

Management assesses the Company’s liquidity in terms of its ability to generate cash to fund its operating, investing and financing activities. The Company continues to generate substantial cash flow from operating activities and remains in a strong financial position, with resources available for reinvestment in existing businesses, acquisitions and managing its capital structure on a short and long-term basis. If additional borrowings are needed, approximately $256.5 million was available under the revolving credit facility as of September 30, 2011. See Note 10 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our revolving credit facility. We believe that, given our cash flow from operating activities and our available credit capacity, we can comply with the current terms of the revolving credit facility, satisfy our ordinary course business obligations and meet other foreseeable financial requirements.

The Company’s cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, as reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows are summarized in the following tables:

	Nine Months Ended September 30,

Other		(4,846	)		(63	)
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	50,879		$	150,652

Our cash from operations was $50.9 million in the first nine months of 2011 compared to $150.7 million 2010, a decrease of $99.8 million. The decrease in cash from operating activities is due to an increase in working capital, primarily resulting from an increase in receivables and inventories resulting from higher input costs and higher inventory levels due to the roll out of our new regional distribution centers.

In the first nine months of 2011, cash used in investing activities decreased by $654.9 million compared to 2010 primarily due to the acquisition of Sturm in 2010 for $664.7 million, and an increase in planned capital expenditures.

We expect capital spending programs to be approximately $85 million in 2011. Capital spending in 2011 will focus on food safety, quality, productivity improvements, improvements to our San Antonio facility, installation of an Enterprise Resource Planning system (ERP) and routine equipment upgrades or replacements at our plants, and will be funded with cash from operations.

Other		2,927			(1,276	)
Net cash provided by financing activities	$	4,437		$	560,201

Net cash provided by financing activities in 2011 was $4.4 million compared to $560.2 million in 2010. In the first nine months of 2010, we issued $400.0 million of new debt, common stock in the net amount of $110.7 million and borrowings under our revolving credit facility to finance the Sturm acquisition. The first nine months of 2011 consisted of normal borrowings and repayments under our line of credit.

Cash provided by operating activities is used to pay down debt and fund additions to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.

Our short-term financing needs are primarily for financing working capital during the year. Due to the seasonality of pickle and fruit production, driven by harvest cycles which occur primarily during late spring and summer, inventories generally are at a low point in late spring and at a high point during the fall, increasing our working capital requirements. In addition, we build inventories of salad dressings in the spring and soup in the late summer months in anticipation of large seasonal shipments that begin late in the second and third quarters, respectively. Our long-term financing needs will depend largely on potential acquisition activity. We expect our revolving credit facility, plus cash flow from operations, to be adequate to provide liquidity for current operations.

Debt Obligations

At September 30, 2011, we had $484.3 million in borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility, $400 million of 7.75% High Yield Notes due 2018, $100 million of 6.03% Senior Notes due September 30, 2013 and $8.4 million of tax increment financing and other obligations. In addition, at September 30, 2011, there were $9.2 million in letters of credit under the revolving credit facility that were issued but undrawn.

Our revolving credit facility provides for an aggregate commitment of $750 million, of which $256.5 million was available at September 30, 2011. Interest rates on debt outstanding under our revolving credit facility as of September 30, 2011 averaged 1.78%.

We are in compliance with applicable debt covenants relating to our revolving credit facility, high yield notes and senior notes as of September 30, 2011.

See Note 10 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our indebtedness and related agreements, including a description of applicable covenants.

Other Commitments and Contingencies

Critical Accounting Policies

A description of the Company’s critical accounting policies is contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. There were no material changes to our critical accounting policies in the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Forward Looking Statements

From time to time, we and our representatives may provide information, whether orally or in writing, including certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which are deemed to be “forward-looking” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Litigation Reform Act”). These forward-looking statements and other information are based on our beliefs as well as assumptions made by us using information currently available.

The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “project,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “should” and similar expressions, as they relate to us, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described herein as anticipated, believed, estimated, expected or intended. We do not intend to update these forward-looking statements.

In accordance with the provisions of the Litigation Reform Act, we are making investors aware that such forward-looking statements, because they relate to future events, are by their very nature subject to many important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other public statements we make. Such factors include, but are not limited to: the outcome of litigation and regulatory proceedings to which we may be a party; the impact of product recalls; actions of competitors; changes and developments affecting our industry; quarterly or cyclical variations in financial results; our ability to obtain suitable pricing for our products; development of new products and services; our level of indebtedness; the availability of financing on commercially reasonable terms; cost of borrowing; our ability to maintain and improve cost efficiency of operations; changes in foreign currency exchange rates; interest rates; raw material and commodity costs; changes in economic conditions; political conditions; reliance on third parties for manufacturing of products and provision of services; general U.S. and global economic conditions; the financial condition of our customers and suppliers; consolidations in the retail grocery and foodservice industries; our ability to continue to make acquisitions in accordance with our business strategy or effectively manage the growth from acquisitions; and other risks that are set forth in the Risk Factors section, the Legal Proceedings section, the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section and other sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 and from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Fluctuations

The Company is party to an unsecured revolving credit facility with an aggregate commitment of $750 million. The interest rate under the revolving credit facility is based on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, and will be determined by either LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.60% or a base rate (as defined in the revolving credit facility) plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.60%.

34

In July 2006, we entered into a forward interest rate swap transaction for a notional amount of $100 million as a hedge of the forecasted private placement of $100 million senior notes. The interest rate swap transaction was terminated on August 31, 2006, which resulted in a pre-tax loss of $1.8 million. The unamortized loss is reflected, net of tax, in Accumulated other comprehensive loss in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The loss is reclassified ratably to our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as an increase to interest expense over the term of the senior notes, providing an effective interest rate of 6.29% over the term of our senior notes.

We do not utilize financial instruments for trading purposes or hold any derivative financial instruments, which could expose us to significant interest rate market risk. Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the increase in the amount of interest expense we expect to pay with respect to our revolving credit facility, which is tied to variable market rates. Based on our outstanding debt balance of $484.3 million under our revolving credit facility at September 30, 2011, each 1% rise in our interest rate would increase our interest expense by approximately $4.8 million annually.

Input Costs

The costs of raw materials, packaging materials and fuel, have varied widely in recent years and future changes in such costs may cause our results of operations and our operating margins to fluctuate significantly. We experienced increases in costs of most raw materials, ingredients, and packaging materials in the first nine months of 2011 compared to 2010. In addition, fuel costs, which represent the most important factor affecting utility costs at our production facilities as well as our transportation costs, rose significantly in the first nine months of 2011. We expect the volatile nature of these costs to continue with an overall upward trend.

We manage the cost of certain raw materials by entering into forward purchase contracts. Forward purchase contracts help us manage our business and reduce cost volatility.

The most important raw material used in our pickle operations is cucumbers. We purchase cucumbers under seasonal grower contracts with a variety of growers strategically located to supply our production facilities. Bad weather or disease in a particular growing area can damage or destroy the crop in that area, which would impair crop yields. If we are not able to buy cucumbers from local suppliers, we would likely either purchase cucumbers from foreign sources, such as Mexico or India, or ship cucumbers from other growing areas in the United States, thereby increasing our production costs.

Changes in the prices of our products may lag behind changes in the costs of our products. We experienced a lag in our pricing in the second quarter of 2011 relative to increased input costs. Although we expect the trend of increased input costs to continue, we anticipate that we will realize the impact of our recent pricing efforts, which will partially offset such increased costs. Competitive pressures also may limit our ability to quickly raise prices in response to increased raw materials, packaging and fuel costs. Accordingly, if we are unable to increase our prices to offset increasing raw material, packaging and fuel costs, our operating profits and margins could be materially adversely affected. In addition, in instances of declining input costs, customers may be looking for price reductions in situations where we have locked into pricing at higher costs.

Fluctuations in Foreign Currencies

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in the value of our foreign currency investment in E.D. Smith, located in Canada. Input costs for certain Canadian products are denominated in U.S. dollars, further impacting the effect foreign currency fluctuations may have on the Company.

The Company’s financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, which require the Canadian assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses to be translated into U.S. dollars at the applicable exchange rates. Accordingly, we are exposed to volatility in the translation of foreign currency earnings due to fluctuations in the value of the Canadian dollar, which may negatively impact the Company’s results of operations and financial position. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 the Company recognized a net loss of $5.4 million, of which a loss of $10.5 million was recorded as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss and a gain of $5.1 million was recorded on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income within the Loss on foreign currency exchange. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company recognized a net foreign currency exchange gain of $7.9 million, of which a gain of $5.8 million was recorded as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss and a gain of $2.1 million was recorded on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income within the Loss on foreign currency exchange.

The Company has entered into foreign currency contracts due to the exposure to Canadian/U.S. dollar currency fluctuations on cross border transactions. The Company does not apply hedge accounting to these contracts and records them at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The contracts were entered into for the purchase of U.S. dollar denominated raw materials by our Canadian subsidiary. For three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company recorded an unrealized gain of approximately $1.5 million and $1.6 million, respectively.

35

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluations were carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon those evaluations, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of September 30, 2011, these disclosure controls and procedures were effective. We have excluded S.T. Foods from our evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures, as of September 30, 2011, because S.T. Foods was acquired by the Company in October of 2010. The net sales and total assets of S.T. Foods represented approximately 6.2%, and 8.9%, respectively, of the related Condensed Consolidated Financial Statement amounts as of and for the quarter ended September 30, 2011.

During the third quarter of 2011, we continued migrating certain financial processing systems to an enterprise resource planning system. This software implementation is part of our ongoing business transformation initiative, and we plan to continue implementing such software and related processes throughout our businesses over the course of the next few years. In connection with this implementation and resulting business process changes, we continue to enhance the design and documentation of our internal control processes to ensure suitable controls over our financial reporting.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2011 that have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

TreeHouse Foods, Inc.

Oak Brook, IL

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of TreeHouse Foods, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2011, and the related condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 and of cash flows for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to such condensed consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of TreeHouse Foods, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 14, 2011, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Derivative Instruments

18. Derivative Instruments

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed by derivative instruments include interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and commodity price risk.

Interest rate swaps are entered into to manage interest rate risk associated with the Company’s $750 million revolving credit facility. Interest on our credit facility is variable and use of interest rate swaps establishes a fixed rate over the term of a portion of the facility. The Company’s objective in using an interest rate swap is to establish a fixed interest rate, thereby enabling the Company to predict and manage interest expense and cash flows in a more efficient and effective manner.

The Company had a $50 million interest rate swap agreement that swapped floating rate debt for a fixed rate of 2.9% and expired August 19, 2011. The Company did not apply hedge accounting and recorded the fair value of this instrument on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recorded income of $0.2 million, $0.9 million, $1.1 million and $3.0 million related to the mark to market adjustment in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, within the Other expense (income), net line of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company also recorded settlement losses of $0.2 million, $0.9 million, $1.3 million and $4.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, within the interest expense line of Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Due to the Company’s operations in Canada, we are exposed to foreign currency risks. The Company enters into foreign currency contracts to manage the risk associated with foreign currency cash flows. The Company’s objective in using foreign currency contracts is to establish a fixed foreign currency exchange rate for the net cash flow requirements for purchases that are denominated in U.S. dollars. These contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting and changes in their fair value are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, within the loss on foreign currency exchange line. The Company realized a gain of approximately $1.5 million and $1.6 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively related to mark to market adjustments which we recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income, within the Other expense (income), net line. There were no mark to market adjustments in the first nine months of 2010.

Commodity price risk is managed, in part, by using derivatives such as commodity swaps, the objective of which is to establish a fixed commodity cost over the term of the contracts.

As of September 30, 2011, the Company had three types of commodity swap contracts outstanding, diesel fuel, oil and high density polyethylene (“HDPE”). The Company entered into diesel fuel swap contracts on June 30, 2011 to manage the Company’s risk associated with the underlying cost of diesel fuel used to deliver products. The contracts for oil and HDPE are used to manage the Company’s risk associated with the underlying commodity cost of a significant component used in packaging materials.

As of September 30, 2011, the Company had 0.9 million gallons outstanding under diesel contracts, settling in the fourth quarter of 2011. As of September 30, 2011, the Company had 0.9 million pounds outstanding under the HDPE swap settling in the fourth quarter of 2011. As of September 30, 2011 the Company had 18 thousand barrels of oil outstanding under the oil swap settling in the first quarter of 2012.

The Company did not apply hedge accounting to the commodity swaps, and they are recorded at fair value on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. For the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company realized a loss of $0.8 million and a gain of $0.4 million, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 a loss of $0.7 million, and a gain of $0.2 million, respectively, related to mark to market adjustments, which are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income, within the Other expense (income), net line. The Company recorded settlement gains of $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and a loss of $18 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010. Settlement gains and losses are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income within the Cost of sales line for the HDPE swap and the Selling and distribution line for the diesel swap.

Segment Information

20. Segment Information

The Company manages operations on a company-wide basis, thereby making determinations as to the allocation of resources in total rather than on a segment-level basis. The Company has designated reportable segments based on how management views its business. The Company does not segregate assets between segments for internal reporting. Therefore, asset-related information has not been presented. The reportable segments, as presented below, are consistent with the manner in which the Company reports its results to the Chief Operating Decision maker.

The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on net sales dollars, gross profit and direct operating income (gross profit less freight out, sales commissions and direct selling and marketing expenses). The amounts in the following tables are obtained from reports used by senior management and do not include allocated income taxes. Other expenses not allocated include unallocated selling and distribution expenses and corporate expenses which consist of general and administrative expenses, amortization expense, other operating (income) expense, and other expense (income). The accounting policies of the Company’s segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies set forth in Note 1 to our 2010 Consolidated Financial Statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Compensation costs related to unvested options totaled $3.4 million at September 30, 2011 and will be recognized over the remaining vesting period of the grants, which averages 2.3 years. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value its stock option awards. The assumptions used to calculate the fair value of stock options issued in 2011 include the following: expected volatility of 33.35%, expected term of six years, risk free rate of 2.57% and no dividends. The average grant date fair value of stock options granted in the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $20.36. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was approximately $3.1 million.

In addition to stock options, the Company also grants restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance unit awards. These awards are granted under our long-term incentive plan. Employee restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards generally vest based on the passage of time. These awards generally vest one-third on each anniversary of the grant date. Director restricted stock units vest over thirteen months. Certain directors have deferred receipt of their awards until their departure from the Board. A complete description of restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards is presented in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. The following table summarizes the restricted stock and restricted stock unit activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2011:

	Employee Restricted Stock			Weighted Average     Grant Date     Fair Value		Employee Restricted Stock Units			Weighted Average     Grant Date     Fair Value		Director Restricted Stock Units			Weighted Average   Grant Date   Fair Value

Outstanding, at September 30, 2011		16		$	26.34		391		$	44.65		71		$	35.51

Future compensation costs related to restricted stock and restricted stock units is approximately $13.5 million as of September 30, 2011, and will be recognized on a weighted average basis, over the next 2.0 years. The grant date fair value of the awards granted in 2011 is equal to the Company’s closing stock price on the grant date.

Performance unit awards are granted to certain members of management. These awards contain service and performance conditions. For each of the three performance periods, one third of the units will accrue, multiplied by a predefined percentage between 0% and 200%, depending on the achievement of certain operating performance measures. Additionally, for the cumulative performance period, a number of units will accrue, equal to the number of units granted multiplied by a predefined percentage between 0% and 200%, depending on the achievement of certain operating performance measures, less any units previously accrued. Accrued units will be converted to stock or cash, at the discretion of the compensation committee, generally, on the third anniversary of the grant date. The Company intends to settle these awards in stock and has the shares available to do so. As of September 30, 2011, based on achievement of operating performance measures, 72,900 performance units were converted into 145,800 shares of stock. Conversion of these shares was based on attainment of at least 120% of the target performance goals, and resulted in the vesting awards being converted into two shares of stock for each performance unit. The following table summarizes the performance unit activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2011:

	Performance Units			Weighted Average     Grant Date     Fair Value
	(In thousands)
Unvested, at December 31, 2010		165		$	30.87
Granted		43		$	54.90
Vested		(73	)	$	24.06
Forfeited		(2	)	$	33.29
Unvested, at September 30, 2011		133		$	42.36

Future compensation cost related to the performance units is estimated to be approximately $4.4 million as of September 30, 2011, and is expected to be recognized over the next 2.1 years.

Revolving Credit Facility — On September 23, 2011, the Company entered into Amendment No.1 (“Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and the group of other participating lenders. The amendment, among other things, extends the maturity of the revolving credit facility to September 23, 2016, and adjusts the interest rates. The interest rates under the Credit Agreement are based on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, and are determined by either LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.60% or a base rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.60%. In addition, a facility fee ranging from 0.25% to 0.40% is due quarterly on the aggregate commitment under the revolving credit facility. The Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility has an aggregate commitment of $750 million, of which $256.5 million was available as of September 30, 2011. As of September 30, 2011, there were $9.2 million in letters of credit under the revolving credit facility that were issued but undrawn. The revolving credit facility contains various financial and other restrictive covenants and requires that the Company maintains certain financial ratios, including a leverage and interest coverage ratio. The Company is in compliance with all applicable covenants as of September 30, 2011.

In our opinion, these statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of all interim periods reported herein. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. Certain product sales, as disclosed in Note 20, from prior year have been reclassified and certain line items on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the prior year have been combined to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported net income, total assets, or cash flows. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results.

The preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires us to use our judgment to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On September 21, 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-09, Employer’s Participation in Multiemployer Plans which increases the quantitative and qualitative disclosures an employer is required to provide about its participation in significant multiemployer plans that offer pension and other postretirement benefits. This ASU does not change current accounting and thus the Company does not believe this ASU will have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. This ASU is effective for fiscal years ended on or after December 15, 2011.

On September 15, 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment which provides entities the option of performing a qualitative assessment of goodwill before calculating the fair value of a reporting unit in Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test. If an entity determines, based on the qualitative factors, that the fair value of a reporting unit is more likely than not less than the carrying amount, the two-step impairment test would be required. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. This literature does not change how goodwill is accounted for, and thus the Company does not believe this ASU will have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

On June 16, 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income which revises the manner in which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements. This ASU removes the current presentation guidance and requires comprehensive income to be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or two separate but consecutive statements. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. ASU 2011-05 does not change current accounting and therefore is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

On May 12, 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. This ASU provides converged guidance on how (not when) to measure fair value. The ASU provides expanded disclosure requirements and other amendments, including those that eliminate unnecessary wording differences between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs). This ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s disclosures or fair value measurements.

Earnings Per Share

11. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the number of weighted average common shares outstanding during the reporting period. The weighted average number of common shares used in the diluted earnings per share calculation is determined using the treasury stock method and includes the incremental effect related to outstanding stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance units.

The following table summarizes the effect of the share-based compensation awards on the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in calculating diluted earnings per share:

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2011		2010		2011		2010
	(In thousands)				(In thousands)
Weighted average common shares outstanding		35,967		35,421		35,721		34,870
Assumed exercise/vesting of equity awards (1)		944		952		1,173		1,065
Weighted average diluted common shares outstanding		36,911		36,373		36,894		35,935

(1) Incremental shares from stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and performance units are computed by the treasury stock method. Stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and performance units excluded from our computation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive, were 110.2 thousand and 240.7 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, and 132.9 thousand and 132.8 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively.
