Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On July 17, 2008, Nash-Finch Company (“Nash Finch”) issued a press release announcing its results for the twelve weeks ended June 14, 2008. The press release by which these results were announced is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.

The press release (including the schedules attached thereto) includes three financial measures that are considered “non-GAAP” financial measures for purposes of the SEC’s Regulation G – Consolidated EBITDA, leverage ratio and free cash flow to net assets. Each of these financial measures is defined in the press release and, as required by Regulation G, Nash Finch has disclosed in the press release information regarding the GAAP financial measures which are most directly comparable to each of these non-GAAP financial measures, and reconciling information between the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures. Relevant reconciling information is also provided on the “Investor Relations” portion of our website, under the caption “Presentations – Supplemental Financial Information.”

These non-GAAP financial measures are included in the press release because Nash Finch management believes they provide useful information to investors because of their importance to the Company’s liquidity position. In addition, they are key measures related to our long-term financial targets included in our Strategic Plan and Consolidated EBITDA is also a metric used to determine payout of performance units pursuant to our Short-Term and Long-Term Incentive Plans.
