Note 4 -- Recent Accounting Pronouncements
- ------------------------------------------
During the first quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company early adopted
certain matters addressed in Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") 00-14,
"Accounting for Certain Sales Incentives," and EITF 00-25, "Vendor
Income Statement Characterization of Consideration Paid to a Reseller of
the Vendor's Products". Certain costs, which were recorded as selling
and administrative expenses, are now recorded as a reduction in revenue.
Similar reclassifications have been made to prior period comparative
information. These reclassifications were not material and had no impact
on the Company's net income or financial position.

Note 5 -- Management's Statement
- --------------------------------
The unaudited financial statements included herein have been prepared by
the Company. In the opinion of the Company's management, these
statements present fairly the consolidated statements of operations,
consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of cash flows,
and reflect all normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of
management, are necessary for the fair presentation of the results of
the interim periods. The interim results of operations are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year.
The data presented on the balance sheet for the fiscal year ended June
28, 2001 were derived from audited financial statements. It is
suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 28, 2001.



Item 2 -- Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction
with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.

General
- -------
The Company's business is seasonal. Demand for peanut and other nut
products is highest during the months of October through December.
Peanuts, pecans, walnuts, almonds and cashews, the Company's principal
raw materials, are purchased primarily during the period from August to
February and are processed throughout the year. As a result of this
seasonality, the Company's personnel and working capital requirements
peak during the last four months of the calendar year. Also, due
primarily to the seasonal nature of the Company's business, the Company
maintains significant inventories of peanuts, pecans, walnuts, almonds
and other nuts at certain times of the year, especially during the
second and third quarters of the Company's fiscal year. Fluctuations in
the market prices of such nuts may affect the value of the Company's
inventory and thus the Company's profitability. At March 28, 2002, the
Company's inventories totaled approximately $114.1 million compared to
approximately $98.6 million at June 28, 2001, and approximately $120.3
million at March 29, 2001. The decrease in inventories at March 28,
2002 when compared to March 29, 2001 is primarily due to (i) lower unit
costs for inshell pecans in fiscal 2002 when compared to fiscal 2001,
partially offset by an increase in levels of pecans on hand, and (ii)
lower levels of almonds on hand at March 28, 2002 compared to March 29,
2001. See "Factors That May Affect Future Results -- Availability of Raw
Materials and Market Price Fluctuations."

The Company's fiscal year ends on the last Thursday of June each year,
and references herein to "fiscal" years are to the fiscal years ended in
the indicated calendar year (for example, "fiscal 2002" refers to the
Company's fiscal year ending June 27, 2002). The Company's fiscal year
typically consists of fifty-two weeks (four thirteen week quarters).

Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Net Sales. Net sales increased from approximately $63.1 million for the
third quarter of fiscal 2001 to approximately $67.1 million for the
third quarter of fiscal 2002, an increase of approximately $4.0 million,
or 6.3%. Net sales increased from approximately $260.1 million for the
thirty-nine weeks ended March 29, 2001 to approximately $264.6 million
for the thirty-nine weeks ended March 28, 2002, an increase of
approximately $4.5 million or 1.7%. The increases in net sales, for
both the quarterly and thirty-nine week periods, were due primarily to
higher unit volume sales to the Company's retail and contract packaging
customers. The increase in net sales for the thirty-nine week period was
partially offset by lower unit volume sales to the Company's industrial
customers during the first half of fiscal 2002. The increase in sales to
retail customers was due primarily to increased sales of private label
products. The decrease in sales to industrial customers was due
primarily to high sales of pecans during the first twenty-six weeks of
fiscal 2001.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2002
decreased approximately 11.4% to approximately $8.6 million from
approximately $9.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. Gross
profit margin decreased from approximately 15.4% for the third quarter
of fiscal 2001 to approximately 12.9% for the third quarter of fiscal
2002. Gross profit for the thirty-nine weeks ended March 28, 2002
decreased approximately 7.5% to approximately $37.2 million compared
with approximately $40.2 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended March
29, 2001. Gross profit margin decreased from approximately 15.5% for
the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2001 to approximately 14.0% for
the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2002. The decreases in gross
profit margin, for both the quarterly and thirty-nine week periods, were
due primarily to: (i) a decrease in gross profit margin on sales to
industrial customers, (ii) an increase in private label sales to retail
customers, which sales generally carry lower gross profit margins than
sales of branded products and (iii) an increase in sales to contract
packaging customers, which sales generally carry lower margins than
sales to the Company's other customers.

Selling and Administrative Expenses. Selling and administrative
expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased from approximately 11.7%
for the third quarter of fiscal 2001 to approximately 10.3% for the
third quarter of fiscal 2002. Selling and administrative expenses as a
percentage of net sales decreased from approximately 9.2% for the
thirty-nine weeks ended March 29, 2001 to approximately 8.7% for the
thirty-nine weeks ended March 28, 2002. Selling expenses as a
percentage of net sales decreased from approximately 8.3% for the third
quarter of fiscal 2001 to approximately 6.9% for the third quarter of
fiscal 2002. Selling expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased
from 6.5% of net sales for the thirty-nine weeks ended March 29, 2001 to
approximately 6.1% of net sales for the thirty-nine weeks ended March
28, 2002. Administrative expenses were approximately 3.4% of net sales
for both the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and the third quarter of
fiscal 2001. Administrative expenses were approximately 2.6% of net
sales for the thirty-nine weeks ended March 28, 2002 versus
approximately 2.7% for the thirty-nine weeks ended March 29, 2001. The
decreases in selling expenses as percentages of net sales, for both the
quarterly and thirty-nine week periods, were due primarily to: (i)
continuous efforts to control expenses and (ii) lower promotional
activity in the consumer distribution channel in fiscal 2002.

Income from Operations. Due to the factors discussed above, income from
operations decreased from approximately $2.3 million, or 3.7% of net
sales, for the third quarter of fiscal 2002, to approximately $1.7
million, or 2.6% of net sales, for the third quarter of fiscal 2002.
For the thirty-nine weeks ended March 28, 2002, income from operations
decreased to approximately $14.2 million, or 5.4% of net sales, from
approximately $16.3 million, or 6.3% of net sales, for the thirty-nine
weeks ended March 29, 2001.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased from approximately $2.3
million for the third quarter of fiscal 2001 to approximately $1.4
million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002. For the thirty-nine weeks
ended March 28, 2002, interest expense was approximately $4.4 million,
compared to approximately $6.4 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended
March 29, 2001. The decreases in interest expense, for both the
quarterly and thirty-nine week periods, were due primarily to: (i) lower
average levels of borrowings due to the lower average levels of
inventories and (ii) lower interest rates associated with the Bank
Credit Facility, as defined below.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense was approximately $0.2 million, or
40.0% of income before income taxes for the third quarter of fiscal 2002
compared to approximately $0.1 million, or 40.0% of income before income
taxes, for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. Income tax expense was
approximately $4.1 million, or 40.0% of income before income taxes, for
the thirty-nine weeks ended March 28, 2002 and the thirty-nine weeks
ended March 29, 2001.

Net Income. Net income was approximately $0.3 million, or $0.03 per
common share (basic and diluted), for the third quarter of fiscal 2002,
compared to approximately $0.2 million, or $0.02 per common share (basic
and diluted), for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. Net income was
approximately $6.1 million, or $0.67 per common share (basic and
diluted), for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2002, compared to
approximately $6.1 million, or $0.68 per common share (basic and
diluted), for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2001.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the third quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company continued to
finance its activities through a bank credit facility (the "Bank Credit
Facility"), a long-term financing facility originally entered into by
the Company in 1992 (the "Long-Term Financing Facility") and a long-term
financing arrangement entered into in 1995 (the "Additional Long-Term
Financing").


Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $9.2 million
for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2002 compared to approximately
$0.1 million for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2001. The
increase in cash provided by operating activities was due primarily to
lower unit costs for nuts, especially pecans, in fiscal 2002 when
compared to fiscal 2001. During the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal
2002, the Company spent approximately $3.7 million in capital
expenditures, compared to approximately $6.1 million for the first
thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2001. This decrease was due primarily to (i)
the expansion of the Company's walnut shelling operations at the
Company's Gustine, California facility during fiscal 2001, and (ii) the
addition of processing lines at the Company's facilities during the
first quarter of fiscal 2001. During the first thirty-nine weeks of
fiscal 2002, the Company repaid approximately $4.7 million of long-term
debt, the same as the amount repaid for the first thirty-nine weeks of
fiscal 2001.

The Bank Credit Facility is comprised of (i) a working capital revolving
loan, which provides for working capital financing of up to
approximately $62.3 million, in the aggregate, and matures on May 31,
2003, and (ii) a letter of credit of approximately $7.7 million to
secure the industrial development bonds, which matures on June 1, 2002.
Borrowings under the working capital revolving loan accrue interest at a
rate (the weighted average of which was 3.20% at March 28, 2002)
determined pursuant to a formula based on the agent bank's quoted rate
and the Eurodollar Interbank rate. As of March 28, 2002, the Company
had approximately $23.8 million of available credit under the Bank
Credit Facility.

Of the total $35.0 million of borrowings under the Long-Term Financing
Facility, $25.0 million matures on August 15, 2004, bears interest rates
ranging from 7.34% to 9.18% per annum payable quarterly, and requires
equal semi-annual principal installments based on a ten-year
amortization schedule. The remaining $10.0 million of this indebtedness
matures on May 15, 2006, bears interest at the rate of 9.16% per annum
payable quarterly, and requires equal semi-annual principal installments
based on a ten-year amortization schedule. As of March 28, 2002, the
total principal amount outstanding under the Long-Term Financing
Facility was $10.7 million.

The Additional Long-Term Financing has a maturity date of September 1,
2005 and (i) as to $10.0 million of the principal amount thereof, bears
interest at an annual rate of 8.3% payable semiannually and requires
annual principal payments of approximately $1.4 million each through
maturity, and (ii) as to the other $15.0 million of the principal amount
thereof, bears interest at an annual rate of 9.38% payable semiannually
and requires principal payments of $5.0 million each on September 1,
2003 and September 1, 2004, with a final payment of $5.0 million at
maturity on September 1, 2005. As of March 28, 2002, the total principal
amount outstanding under the Additional Long-Term Financing was
approximately $20.7 million.

The terms of the Company's financing facilities, as amended, include
certain restrictive covenants that, among other things: (i) require the
Company to maintain specified financial ratios; (ii) limit the Company's
annual capital expenditures; and (iii) require that Jasper B. Sanfilippo
(the Company's Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer) and
Mathias A. Valentine (a director and the Company's President) together
with their respective immediate family members and certain trusts
created for the benefit of their respective sons and daughters, continue
to own shares representing the right to elect a majority of the
directors of the Company. In addition, (i) the Long-Term Financing
Facility limits the Company's payment of dividends to a cumulative
amount not to exceed 25% of the Company's cumulative net income from and
after January 1, 1996, (ii) the Additional Long-Term Financing limits
cumulative dividends to the sum of (a) 50% of the Company's cumulative
net income (or minus 100% of the Company's cumulative net loss) from and
after January 1, 1995 to the date the dividend is declared, (b) the
cumulative amount of the net proceeds received by the Company during the
same period from any sale of its capital stock, and (c) $5.0 million,
and (iii) the Bank Credit Facility limits dividends to the lesser of (a)
25% of net income for the previous fiscal year, or (b) $5.0 million and
prohibits the Company from redeeming shares of capital stock. As of
March 28, 2002, the Company was in compliance with all restrictive
covenants under its financing facilities. The Company believes that
cash flow from operating activities and funds available under the Bank
Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet working capital requirements
and anticipated capital expenditures for the foreseeable future.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
- --------------------------------
During the first quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company early adopted
certain matters addressed in Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") 00-14,
"Accounting for Certain Sales Incentives," and EITF 00-25, "Vendor
Income Statement Characterization of Consideration Paid to a Reseller of
the Vendor's Products". Certain costs, which were recorded as selling
and administrative expenses, are now recorded as a reduction in revenue.
Similar reclassifications have been made to prior period comparative
information. These reclassifications were not material and had no impact
on the Company's net income or financial position.

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
SFAS 141, "Business Combinations", and SFAS 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets". SFAS 141 requires that all business combinations
initiated after June 30, 2001 be accounted for under the purchase
method. With the adoption of SFAS 142, goodwill is no longer subject to
amortization over its estimated useful life. Instead, goodwill will be
subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment by applying a
fair-value-based test. In addition, under the new rules, acquired
intangible assets will be separately recognized if the benefit of the
intangible asset is obtained through contractual or other legal rights,
or if the intangible asset can be sold, transferred, licensed, rented or
exchanged, regardless of the acquirer's intent to do so. The provisions
of SFAS 142 must be applied with fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2001. The Company will adopt SFAS 142 beginning June 28, 2002.
Management is currently assessing the implementation guidance being
provided by the FASB and other regulatory bodies and has not yet
determined the effect, if any, the new rules will have on the Company's
financial position or results of operations. Any adjustments arising
from the initial impairment assessment would be reported as the
cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle.

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations". This statement requires that the fair value of a
liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period
in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be
made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of
the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. SFAS 143 will become
effective in fiscal 2003. Management does not expect that adoption of
this standard will have a material impact on the Company's results of
operations, financial condition or cash flows.

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 144, "Accounting for the Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". This statement provides a single,
comprehensive accounting model for impairment and disposal of long-lived
assets and discontinued operations. SFAS 144 will become effective in
fiscal 2003. Management does not expect that adoption of this standard
will have a material impact on the Company's results of operations,
financial condition or cash flows.

Forward Looking Statements
- --------------------------
The statements contained in this filing which are not historical
(including statements concerning the Company's expectations regarding
market risk) are "forward looking statements". These forward looking
statements, which are generally identified by the use of forward looking
words and phrases such as "intends", "may", "believes" and "expects",
represent the Company's present expectations or beliefs concerning
future events. The Company cautions that such statements are qualified
by important factors, including the factors described below under
"Factors That May Affect Future Results", that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those in the forward looking
statements, as well as the timing and occurrence (or nonoccurrence) of
transactions and events which may be subject to circumstances beyond the
Company's control. Consequently, results actually achieved may differ
materially from the expected results included in these statements.

Factors That May Affect Future Results
- --------------------------------------
(a) Availability of Raw Materials and Market Price Fluctuations
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
The availability and cost of raw materials for the production of the
Company's products, including peanuts, pecans and other nuts are subject
to crop size and yield fluctuations caused by factors beyond the
Company's control, such as weather conditions and plant diseases.
Additionally, the supply of edible nuts and other raw materials used in
the Company's products could be reduced upon any determination by the
United States Department of Agriculture ("USDA") or other government
agency that certain pesticides, herbicides or other chemicals used by
growers have left harmful residues on portions of the crop or that the
crop has been contaminated by aflatoxin or other agents. Shortages in
the supply of and increases in the prices of nuts and other raw
materials used by the Company in its products (to the extent that cost
increases cannot be passed on to customers) could have an adverse impact
on the Company's profitability. Furthermore, fluctuations in the market
prices of nuts may affect the value of the Company's inventories and the
Company's profitability. The Company has significant inventories of nuts
that would be adversely affected by any decrease in the market price of
such raw materials. See "General" .

(b) Market and Import/Export Conditions and Uncertainties
- ---------------------------------------------------------
The terrorist attacks of September 11 and subsequent events have created
considerable economic and political uncertainties. Sales to the
Company's airline customers have been adversely impacted. For the
fiscal year ended June 28, 2001, sales to airline customers represented
approximately 3% of the Company's total sales. Additionally, the
terrorist attacks and subsequent events may have material adverse
effects on imports, shipping and transportation, fuel costs, consumer
buying behavior, general economic conditions and other factors affecting
the Company's business.

(c) Competitive Environment
- ---------------------------
The Company operates in a highly competitive environment. The Company's
principal products compete against food and snack products manufactured
and sold by numerous regional and national companies, some of which are
substantially larger and have greater resources than the Company, such
as Planters and Ralcorp Holdings, Inc. The Company also competes with
other shellers in the industrial market and with regional processors in
the retail and wholesale markets. In order to maintain or increase its
market share, the Company must continue to price its products
competitively, which may lower revenue per unit and cause declines in
gross margin, if the Company is unable to increase unit volumes as well
as reduce its costs.

(d) Fixed Price Commitments
- ---------------------------
From time to time, the Company enters into fixed price commitments with
its customers. Such commitments typically represent approximately 10%
of the Company's annual net sales and are normally entered into after
the Company's cost to acquire the nut products necessary to satisfy the
fixed price commitment is substantially fixed. However, the Company
expects to continue to enter into fixed price commitments with respect
to certain of its nut products prior to fixing its acquisition cost
when, in management's judgment, market or crop harvest conditions so
warrant. To the extent the Company does so, these fixed price
commitments may result in losses. Historically, such losses have
generally been offset by gains on other fixed price commitments.
However, there can be no assurance that losses from fixed price
commitments may not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
results of operations.

(e) Termination of Federal Peanut Quota Program
- -----------------------------------------------
Peanuts are an important part of the Company's product line.
Approximately 50% of the total pounds of products processed annually by
the Company are peanuts, peanut butter and other products containing
peanuts. The production and marketing of peanuts have been regulated by the
USDA under the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938 (the "Agricultural
Adjustment Act"). The Agricultural Adjustment Act, and regulations
promulgated thereunder, support the peanut crop by: (i) limiting peanut
imports; (ii) limiting the amount of peanuts that American farmers are
allowed to take to the domestic market each year; and (iii) setting a
minimum price that a sheller must pay for peanuts which may be sold for
domestic consumption. The amount of peanuts that American farmers can
sell each year is determined by the Secretary of Agriculture and is
based upon the prior year's peanut consumption in the United States.
Only peanuts that qualify under the quota may be sold for domestic food
products and seed. The peanut quota for the 2001 crop year (which ends on
July 31, 2002) is approximately 1.2 million tons. Peanuts in excess of
the quota are called "additional peanuts" and generally may only be
exported or used domestically for crushing into oil or meal. Current
regulations permit additional peanuts to be domestically processed and
exported as finished goods to any foreign country. The quota support
price for the 2001 crop year is approximately $610 per ton.

The 1996 Farm Bill extended the federal peanut quota program for
peanuts for seven years. In May 2002, Congress passed The Farm Security
and Rural Investment Act of 2002 ( the "2002 Farm Bill"), which would
terminate the federal peanut quota program beginning with the 2002 crop
year. President Bush has indicated that he would sign the 2002 Farm Bill
into law. The 2002 Farm Bill replaces the federal peanut quota program
with a fixed, decoupled payment system through the 2011 crop year.
Additionally, among other provisions, the Secretary of Agriculture may
make certain counter-cyclical payments whenever the Secretary believes
that the effective price for peanuts is less than the target price.
The termination of the federal peanut quota program could significantly
affect the supply of, and price for, peanuts. Although the Company has
successfully operated in a market shaped by the federal peanut quota
program for many years, the Company believes that it would adapt to a
market without a quota program. However, the Company has no experience
in operating in such a peanut market, and no assurances can be given that
the elimination of the federal peanut quota program would not adversely
affect the Company's business. While the Company believes that its ability
to use its raw peanut inventories in its own processing operations gives
it greater protection against these changes than is possessed by certain
competitors whose operations are limited to either shelling or
processing, no assurances can be given that the elimination of the
federal peanut quota program will not adversely affect the Company's
business.


Item 3 -- Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company has not entered into transactions using derivative financial
instruments. The Company believes that its exposure to market risk
related to its other financial instruments (which are the debt
instruments under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources")
is not material.


PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
---------------------------

Item 2 -- Changes in Securities
- -------------------------------
As described above under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital
Resources" under Part I of this report, there are restrictive covenants
under the Company's financing facilities which limit the payment of
dividends, such information which is incorporated herein by reference.
