Item 2.02

Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

As previously disclosed, beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2020, Conagra Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) no longer reports the Pinnacle Foods Inc. (“Pinnacle Foods”) business, acquired in October 2018, as a standalone reporting segment. To better reflect how management is now managing the overall integrated business, the business components previously comprising the Pinnacle Foods reporting segment have been allocated to the Company’s other four reporting segments.

The Company is furnishing with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 certain historical unaudited financial information that has been recast to reflect this change. The recast historical financial information also reflects (i) the reallocation of an immaterial amount of net sales and operating profit from the Company’s Grocery & Snacks reporting segment to the Company’s Foodservice reporting segment and (ii) the removal of certain businesses divested in fiscal 2019 (the Wesson oil business and the Gelit pasta business) from historical organic net sales. This recast financial information is provided to ensure comparability and has no impact on the Company’s previously reported consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), balance sheets, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows. The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.

The information furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to liabilities under that section and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
