NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

Farmer Bros. Co., a Delaware corporation (including its consolidated subsidiaries unless the context otherwise requires, the “Company,” or “Farmer Bros.”), is a manufacturer, wholesaler and distributor of coffee and distributor of tea and culinary products. The ~~Company is a direct distributor of coffee to~~Company's customers include restaurants, hotels, casinos, offices, quick service restaurants ~~("QSR's"~~(“QSRs”), convenience stores, healthcare facilities and other foodservice providers, as well as private brand retailers in the QSR, grocery, drugstore, restaurant, convenience store and independent coffeehouse channels. The Company was founded in 1912,, was incorporated in California in 1923,, and reincorporated in Delaware in 2004. The Company operates in one business segment.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S‑X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals, unless otherwise indicated) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial data have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, ~~2015.~~2016. Events occurring subsequent to March 31, ~~2015~~2016 have been evaluated for potential recognition or disclosure in the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended March 31, ~~2015.~~2016.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements 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 June 30, ~~2014,~~2015, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on September ~~16, 2014.~~14, 2015.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company reviews its estimates on an ongoing basis using currently available information. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates and actual results may differ from those estimates.

~~Corrections to Previously Issued Financial Statements~~

Subsequent to the issuance of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2014, the Company identified certain errors in the consolidated statements of operations. Accordingly, the Company has corrected the accompanying unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 in order to comply with GAAP.

~~The corrections to the consolidated statements of operations include:~~


1.	~~reclassification of fuel surcharges billed to customers previously netted against the Company's fuel expenses in "Selling expenses" to "Net sales"; and~~


2.	~~reclassification of certain labor and overhead expenses previously included in "Selling expenses" and "General and administrative expenses" to "Cost of goods sold."~~

These errors had no impact on the amounts previously reported in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, statements of cash flows and statements of comprehensive income (loss). Management has evaluated the materiality of these errors quantitatively and qualitatively, including the impact of the errors on gross profit and income from operations, and has concluded that the corrections of these errors are immaterial to the consolidated financial statements as a whole.

~~Farmer Bros. Co.~~

~~Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)______________________________________________________________________________________________~~

The accompanying unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 has been corrected for the errors described above. The following table presents the impact of these corrections:

Corporate Relocation Plan

On February 5, 2015, the Company announced a plan ~~(the "Corporate Relocation Plan")~~ approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on February 3, 2015, pursuant to which the Company will close its Torrance, California facility and relocate these operations to a new facility (the "New Facility") housing the Company's manufacturing, distribution, coffee lab and corporate headquarters ~~facility.~~(the “Corporate Relocation Plan”). The ~~new facility~~New Facility will be located in ~~the Town of~~ Northlake, ~~Denton County,~~ Texas in the Dallas/~~Ft.~~Fort Worth area. The Company expects to close its Torrance facility in phases beginning in the summer of 2015. Construction of the new facility and relocation are expected to be completed by the end of the summer of 2016.

Expenses related to the Corporate Relocation Plan included in ~~"Relocation~~“Restructuring and other transition ~~expenses"~~expenses” in the Company's consolidated statements of operations include employee retention and separation benefits, ~~facility relocation~~facility-related costs, and other related costs such as travel, legal, consulting and other professional services. In order to receive the retention and/or separation benefits, impacted employees are required to provide service through their retention dates which vary from May 2015 through ~~March~~December 2016 or separation dates which vary from May 2015 through ~~June~~December 2016. A liability for such retention and separation benefits was recorded at the communication date in ~~"Accrued~~“Accrued payroll ~~expenses"~~expenses” on the Company's consolidated balance ~~sheets and will be updated in subsequent periods based on the then available estimates until all obligations are settled. Facility relocation~~sheets. Facility-related costs and other related costs are recognized in the period when the liability is ~~incurred.~~incurred (see Note 2).

Facility Lease Obligation

On July 17, 2015, the Company entered into a lease agreement, as amended (the “Lease Agreement”) with WF-FB NLTX, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Lessor”), to lease a 538,000 square foot facility to be constructed on

Farmer Bros. Co.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)______________________________________________________________________________________________

28.2 acres of land located in Northlake, Texas, which will include corporate offices, areas dedicated to manufacturing and distribution, as well as a lab. Principal design work for the New Facility was substantially completed in March 2016. The construction of the New Facility is estimated to be completed by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2017 (see Note 3).

The New Facility will be constructed by Lessor, at its expense, in accordance with agreed upon specifications and plans determined as set forth in the Lease Agreement. Due to the Company’s involvement in the construction of the New Facility, as the deemed general contractor, pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 840, “Leases” (“ASC 840”), the Company is required to capitalize during the construction period the cash and non-cash assets (with the exception of the land which is not capitalized) contributed by Lessor for the construction as property, plant and equipment on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, with an offsetting liability for the same amount payable to Lessor included in "Other long-term liabilities."

A portion of the lease arrangement is allocated to the land for which the Company will accrue rent expense during the construction period. The amount of rent expense to be accrued is determined using the fair value of the leased land at construction commencement and the Company’s incremental borrowing rate, and is recognized on a straight-line basis. Once rent payments commence under the Lease Agreement, all amounts in excess of the accrued rent expense will be recorded as a debt-service payment and recognized as interest expense and a reduction of the financing obligation.

Sale of Spice Assets

On December 8, 2015, the Company completed the sale of certain assets associated with the Company’s manufacture, processing and distribution of raw, processed and blended spices and certain other culinary products (collectively, the “Spice Assets”) to Harris Spice Company Inc., a California corporation (“Harris Spice”) (see Note 4). The Company received $6.0 million in cash at closing, and is eligible to receive an earnout amount of up to $5.0 million over a three year period based upon a percentage of certain institutional spice sales by Harris Spice following the closing. Gain from the earnout is recognized when earned and when realization is assured beyond a reasonable doubt.

The Company has followed the guidance in ASC 205-20, "Presentation of Financial Statements—Discontinued Operations," as updated by Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-08, "Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity" and has not presented the sale of the Spice Assets as discontinued operations. The sale of the Spice Assets does not represent a strategic shift for the Company and is not expected to have a major effect on the Company's results of operations because the Company will continue to sell spice products to its direct store delivery customers ("DSD Customers").

Assets Held for Sale

The Company considers properties to be assets held for sale when (1) management commits to a plan to sell the property; (2) it is unlikely that the disposal plan will be significantly modified or discontinued; (3) the property is available for immediate sale in its present condition; (4) actions required to complete the sale of the property have been initiated; (5) sale of the property is probable and the Company expects the completed sale will occur within one year; and (6) the property is actively being marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable given the Company's estimate of current market value. Upon designation of a property as an asset held for sale, the Company records the property’s value at the lower of its carrying value or its estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell and ceases depreciation (see Note 5).

Derivative Instruments

The Company purchases various derivative instruments to create economic hedges of its commodity price risk and interest rate risk. These derivative instruments consist primarily of ~~futures~~forward and ~~swaps.~~option contracts. The Company reports the fair value of derivative instruments on its consolidated balance sheets in ~~"Short-term~~“Short-term derivative assets,~~" "Other~~” “Other assets,~~" "Short-term~~” “Short-term derivative liabilities,"” or ~~"Long-term derivative~~“Other long-term liabilities."” The Company determines the current and noncurrent classification based on the timing of expected future cash flows of individual trades and reports these amounts on a gross basis. Additionally, the Company reports cash held on deposit in margin accounts for coffee-related derivative instruments on a gross basis on its consolidated balance sheets in ~~"Restricted cash,"~~“Restricted cash” if restricted from withdrawal due to a net loss position in such margin accounts.

Farmer Bros. Co.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)______________________________________________________________________________________________

The accounting for the changes in fair value of the Company's derivative instruments can be summarized as follows:



Derivative Treatment		Accounting Method
Normal purchases and normal sales exception		Accrual accounting
Designated in a qualifying hedging relationship		Hedge accounting
All other derivative instruments		Mark-to-market accounting

The Company enters into green coffee purchase commitments at a fixed price or at a price to be fixed (“PTF”). PTF contracts are purchase commitments whereby the quality, quantity, delivery period, price differential to the coffee ~~"C"~~“C” market price and other negotiated terms are agreed upon, but the date, and therefore the price at which the base “C” market price will be fixed has not yet been established. The coffee ~~"C"~~“C” market price is fixed at some point after the purchase contract date and before the futures market closes for the delivery month and may be fixed either at the direction of the Company to the vendor, or by the application of a derivative that was separately purchased as a hedge. For both fixed-price and PTF contracts, the Company expects to take delivery of and to utilize the coffee in a reasonable period of time and in the conduct of normal business. Accordingly, these purchase commitments qualify as normal purchases and are not recorded at fair value on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

The Company accounts for certain coffee-related derivative instruments as accounting hedges in order to minimize the volatility created in the Company's quarterly results from utilizing these derivative contracts and to improve comparability between reporting periods. For a derivative to qualify for designation in a hedging relationship it must meet specific criteria and the Company must maintain appropriate documentation. The Company establishes hedging relationships pursuant to its risk management policies. The hedging relationships are evaluated at inception and on an ongoing basis to determine whether the hedging relationship is, and is expected to remain, highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows attributable to the underlying risk being hedged. The Company also regularly assesses whether the hedged forecasted transaction is probable of occurring. If a derivative ceases to be or is no longer expected to be highly effective, or if the Company believes the likelihood of occurrence of the hedged forecasted transaction is no longer probable, hedge accounting is discontinued for that derivative, and future changes in the fair value of that derivative are recognized in “Other, net.”

For coffee-related derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative is reported as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) and subsequently reclassified into cost of goods sold in the period or periods when the hedged transaction affects earnings. Any ineffective portion of the derivative instrument's change in fair value is recognized currently in “Other, net.” Gains or losses deferred in AOCI associated with terminated derivative instruments, derivative instruments that cease to be highly effective hedges, derivative instruments for which the forecasted transaction is reasonably possible but no longer probable of occurring, and cash flow hedges that have been otherwise discontinued remain in AOCI until the hedged item affects earnings. If it becomes probable that the forecasted transaction designated as the hedged item in a cash flow hedge will not occur, any gain or loss deferred in AOCI is recognized in “Other, net” at that time. For derivative instruments that are not designated in a hedging relationship, and for which the normal purchases and normal sales exception has not been elected, the changes in fair value are reported in “Other, net.”

The following gains and losses on derivative instruments are netted together and reported in “Other, net” in the Company's consolidated statements of operations:

Gains and losses on all derivative instruments that are not designated as cash flow hedges and for which the normal purchases and normal sales exception has not been elected; and

The ineffective portion of unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments that are designated as cash flow hedges.

The fair value of derivative instruments is based upon broker quotes. At March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2015, approximately 90% and ~~2014, approximately 86%~~94%, respectively, of the Company's outstanding coffee-related derivative instruments were designated as cash flow hedges (see Note 4)6).

Coffee Brewing Equipment and Service

The Company classifies certain expenses related to coffee brewing equipment provided to customers as cost of goods sold. These costs include the cost of the equipment as well as the cost of servicing that equipment (including service employees’ salaries, cost of transportation and the cost of supplies and parts) and are considered directly attributable to the generation of revenues from its customers. Accordingly, such costs included in cost of goods sold in the accompanying ~~unaudited~~ consolidated financial

respectively. In addition, depreciation expense related to capitalized coffee brewing equipment reported in cost of goods sold in the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 ~~and 2014~~ was ~~$2.6~~$2.4 million and ~~$2.8~~$2.6 million, respectively.

Coffee brewing equipment costs included in cost of goods sold in ~~each of~~ the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 were $20.4 million and ~~2014 were~~ $19.6 ~~million.~~million, respectively. Depreciation expense related to capitalized coffee brewing equipment reported in cost of goods sold in the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 ~~and 2014~~ was ~~$7.8~~$7.5 million and ~~$8.6~~$7.8 million, respectively.

The Company capitalized coffee brewing equipment (included in machinery and equipment) in the amount of ~~$8.6~~$5.7 million and ~~$9.8~~$8.6 million in the nine months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 and ~~2014,~~2015, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

~~Most~~The Company recognizes sales revenue when all of the following have occurred: (1) delivery; (2) persuasive evidence of an agreement exists; (3) pricing is fixed or determinable; and (4) collection is reasonably assured. When product sales are made “off-truck” to the Company’s customers at their places of business ~~by the Company’s route sales representatives. Revenue is recognized at the time the Company’s route sales representatives physically deliver~~or products ~~to customers and title passes or when it is accepted by the customer when~~are shipped by third-party delivery "FOB Destination," title passes and revenue is recognized upon delivery. When customers pick up products at the Company's distribution centers, title passes and revenue is recognized upon product pick up.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Net income (loss) per share (“EPS”) represents net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, excluding unallocated shares held by the Company's Employee Stock Ownership ~~Plan.~~Plan (“ESOP”) (see Note 16). Diluted EPS represents net income attributable to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, inclusive of the dilutive impact of common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. However, nonvested restricted stock awards (referred to as participating securities) are excluded from the dilutive impact of common equivalent shares outstanding in accordance with authoritative guidance under the two-class method. The nonvested restricted stockholders are entitled to participate in dividends declared on common stock as if the shares were fully vested and hence are deemed to be participating securities. Under the two-class method, net income attributable to nonvested restricted stockholders is excluded from net income attributable to common stockholders for purposes of calculating basic and diluted EPS.

Computation of ~~net loss per share~~EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2016 includes the dilutive effect of 107,936 shares issuable under stock options with exercise prices below the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the last trading day of the applicable period, but excludes 59,854 shares issuable under stock options with exercise prices above the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the last trading day of the applicable period because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Computation of EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2015 excludes a total of 557,818 shares issuable under stock options, because the Company incurred a net loss and including them would be anti-dilutive. Computation of EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2014 includes the dilutive effect of 126,959 shares issuable under stock options, and computation of EPS for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 includes the dilutive effect of 142,391 shares and 98,160 shares issuable under stock options, respectively (see Note 14). Computation of EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2014 excludes 25,253 shares issuable under stock options because including them would be anti-dilutive.

Computation of EPS for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 includes the dilutive effect of 127,806 and ~~2014 excludes 6,166~~142,391 shares, ~~and 14,487 incremental shares~~respectively, issuable under stock options with exercise prices below the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the last trading day of the applicable period, but excludes 35,253 and 6,166 shares, respectively, issuable under stock options with exercise prices above the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the last trading day of the applicable period because ~~including them~~their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Dividends

The Company’s Board of Directors has omitted the payment of a quarterly dividend since the third quarter of fiscal 2011. The amount, if any, of dividends to be paid in the future will depend upon the Company’s then available cash, anticipated cash needs, overall financial condition, credit agreement restrictions, future prospects for earnings and cash flows, as well as other relevant factors.

Impairment of Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets

The Company performs its annual impairment test of goodwill and/or other indefinite-lived intangible assets as of June 30. Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but instead are reviewed for impairment annually, as well as on an interim basis if events or changes in circumstances between annual tests indicate that an asset might be impaired.

Farmer Bros. Co.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)______________________________________________________________________________________________

Testing for impairment of goodwill is a two-step process. The first step requires the Company to compare the fair value of its reporting ~~units~~unit to the carrying value of the net assets of the ~~respective~~ reporting ~~units,~~unit, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, goodwill of the reporting unit is potentially impaired and the Company then completes step two to measure the impairment loss, if any. The second step requires the calculation of the implied fair value of goodwill, which is the residual fair value remaining after deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible net assets of the reporting unit from the fair value of the reporting unit. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying amount of goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the difference. As of March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company determined that there were no events or circumstances that indicated impairment and, therefore, no goodwill impairment charges were recorded in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016 or 2015.

Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment by comparing their fair values to their carrying values. An impairment charge is recorded if the estimated fair value

~~Farmer Bros. Co.~~

~~Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)______________________________________________________________________________________________~~

of such assets has decreased below their carrying value. There were no such events or circumstances during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.

Long-Lived Assets, Excluding Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets

The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets evaluated for impairment are grouped with other assets to the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities. The estimated future cash flows are based upon, among other things, assumptions about expected future operating performance, and may differ from actual cash flows. If the sum of the projected undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest) is less than the carrying value of the assets, the assets will be written down to the estimated fair value in the period in which the determination is made. There were no such events or circumstances during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015. The Company may incur certain other non-cash asset impairment costs in connection with the Corporate Relocation ~~Plan which have not yet been determined.~~Plan.

Self-Insurance

The Company is self-insured for workers’ compensation insurance subject to specific retention levels and uses historical analysis to determine and record the estimates of expected future expenses resulting from workers’ compensation claims. The estimated outstanding losses are the accrued cost of unpaid claims. The estimated outstanding losses, including allocated loss adjustment expenses (“ALAE”), include case reserves, the development of known claims and incurred but not reported claims. ALAE are the direct expenses for settling specific claims. The amounts reflect per occurrence and annual aggregate limits maintained by the Company. The analysis does not include estimating a provision for unallocated loss adjustment expenses.

The Company accounts for its accrued liability relating to workers’ compensation claims on an undiscounted basis. The estimated gross undiscounted workers’ compensation liability relating to such claims at March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2015, respectively, was ~~$10.6~~$13.6 million and ~~$9.6~~$13.4 million, ~~respectively,~~ and the estimated recovery from reinsurance was ~~$1.2~~$2.2 million ~~as of March 31, 2015~~ and ~~June 30, 2014.~~$2.5 million, respectively. The short-term and long-term accrued liabilities for workers’ compensation claims are presented on the Company's consolidated balance sheets in "Other current liabilities" and in "Accrued workers' compensation liabilities," respectively. The estimated insurance receivable is included in "Other assets" on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

~~Due to its failure to meet~~At March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2015, the ~~minimum~~Company had posted a $7.0 million letter of credit ~~rating criteria~~as a security deposit with the State of California Department of Industrial Relations Self-Insurance Plans for participation in the alternative security program for California self-insurers for workers’ compensation liability ~~the Company posted~~and a ~~$6.5~~$4.3 million letter of credit ~~at March 31, 2015 and at June 30, 2014~~ as a security deposit ~~with the State~~for self-insuring workers' compensation, general liability and auto insurance coverages outside of ~~California Department of Industrial Relations Self-Insurance Plans.~~California.

The estimated liability related to the Company's self-insured group medical insurance at March 31, ~~2015~~2016 and June 30, ~~2014~~2015 was $1.0 million, ~~and $0.8 million, respectively,~~ recorded on an incurred but not reported basis, within deductible limits, based on actual claims and the average lag time between the date insurance claims are filed and the date those claims are paid.

General liability, product liability and commercial auto liability are insured through a captive insurance program. The Company retains the risk within certain aggregate amounts. Cost of the insurance through the captive program is accrued based on estimates of the aggregate liability claims incurred using certain actuarial assumptions and historical claims experience. The Company's liability reserve for such claims at March 31, ~~2015~~2016 and June 30, ~~2014~~2015 was $1.4 million and $0.8 million, ~~and $0.4 million,~~ respectively.

Farmer Bros. Co.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)______________________________________________________________________________________________

The estimated liability related to the Company's self-insured group medical insurance, general liability, product liability and commercial auto liability is included on the Company's consolidated balance sheets in “Other current liabilities.”

part of the ~~costs is reported~~FASB's Simplification Initiative. The areas for simplification in ASU 2016-09 involve several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as ~~interest expense.~~either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. Some of the areas for simplification apply only to nonpublic entities. For public business entities, the amendments in ASU ~~2015-03 is~~2016-09 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, ~~2015,~~2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is ~~allowed~~permitted for any entity in any interim or annual period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all ~~entities for financial statements that have not been previously issued. Entities would apply~~of the ~~new guidance retrospectively to all prior periods (i.e.,~~amendments in the ~~balance sheet for each period is adjusted).~~same period. ASU ~~2015-03~~2016-09 is effective for the Company beginning July 1, ~~2016.~~2017. Adoption of ASU ~~2015-03~~2016-09 is not expected to have a material effect on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company.

In ~~January 2015,~~March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. ~~2015-01, “Income Statement-Extraordinary~~2016-05, "Derivatives and ~~Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20); Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating~~Hedging (Topic 815): Effect of Derivative Contract Novations on Existing Hedge Accounting Relationships (a consensus of the ~~Concept~~FASB Emerging Issues Task Force" ("ASU 2016-05"). ASU 2016-05 clarifies that "a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as the hedging instrument in an existing hedging relationship would not, in and of ~~Extraordinary Items.”~~itself, be considered a termination of the derivative instrument" or "a change in a critical term of the hedging relationship." As long as all other hedge accounting criteria in ASC 815 are met, a hedging relationship in which the hedging derivative instrument is novated would not be discontinued or require redesignation. This clarification applies to both cash flow and fair value hedging relationships. For public business entities, ASU ~~2015-01 eliminates from U.S. GAAP the concept of an extraordinary item, which~~2016-05 is an event or transaction that is both unusual in nature and infrequently occurring. Under ASU 2015-01, an entity will no longer (1) segregate an extraordinary item from the results of ordinary operations; (2) separately present an extraordinary item on its income statement, net of tax, after income from continuing operations; or (3) disclose income taxes and earnings-per-share data applicable to an extraordinary item. ASU 2015-01 is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, ~~2015,~~2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early application is permitted including adoption in an interim period. ASU 2016-05 is effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2017. Adoption of ASU 2016-05 is not expected to have a material effect on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)" ("ASU 2016-02"), which introduces a new lessee model that brings substantially all leases onto the balance sheet. In addition, while the new guidance retains most of the principles of the existing lessor model in GAAP, it aligns many of those principles with ASC 606, "Revenue From Contracts With Customers." For public business entities, ASU 2016-02 is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early application is permitted. ASU 2016-02 is effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2019. Adoption of ASU 2016-02 is not expected to have a material effect on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes" ("ASU 2015-17"), which will require entities to present deferred tax assets ("DTAs") and deferred tax liabilities ("DTLs") as noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. ASU 2015-17 simplifies the current guidance, which requires entities to separately present DTAs and DTLs as current and noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. For public business entities, the amendments in ASU 2015-17 are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early application is permitted ~~but adoption must occur at~~as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. ASU 2015-17 is effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2017. Adoption of ASU 2015-17 is not expected to have a material effect on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company.

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments” (“ASU 2015-16”). ASU 2015-16 eliminates the requirement that an acquirer in a business combination account for measurement-period adjustments retrospectively. Instead, an acquirer will recognize a measurement-period adjustment during the period in which it determines the amount of the adjustment, including the effect on earnings of any amounts it would have recorded in previous periods if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. The guidance is effective for public business entities for fiscal years, including interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2015-16 is effective for the Company beginning July

1, 2016. Adoption of ASU 2015-16 is not expected to have a material effect on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company.

In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-15, “Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements” (“ASU 2015-15”). ASU 2015-15 incorporates into the ASC an SEC staff announcement that the SEC staff will not object to an entity presenting the cost of securing a revolving line of credit as an asset, regardless of whether a balance is outstanding. The standard, as issued, did not address revolving lines of credit, which may not have outstanding balances. An entity that repeatedly draws on a revolving credit facility and then repays the balance could present the cost as a deferred asset and reclassify all or a portion of it as a direct deduction from the liability whenever a balance is outstanding. However, the SEC staff’s announcement provides a less-cumbersome alternative. Either way, the cost should be amortized over the term of the arrangement. ASU 2015-15 is effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2016. The SEC staff guidance is also effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2016. Adoption of ASU 2015-15 is not expected to have a material effect on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-12, “Plan Accounting: Defined Benefit Pension Plans (Topic 960), Defined Contribution Pension Plans (Topic 962), Health and Welfare Benefit Plans (Topic 965), (Part I) Fully Benefit-Responsive Investment Contracts, (Part II) Plan Investment Disclosures, (Part III) Measurement Date Practical Expedient” ("ASU 2015-12”). ASU 2015-12 eliminates requirements that employee benefit plans measure the fair value of fully benefit-responsive investment contracts ("FBRICs") and provide the related fair value disclosures. As a result, FBRICs are measured, presented and disclosed only at contract value. Also, plans will be required to disaggregate their investments measured using fair value by general type, either on the face of the financial statements or in the notes, and self-directed brokerage accounts are one general type. Plans no longer have to disclose the net appreciation/depreciation in fair value of investments by general type or individual investments equal to or greater than 5% of net assets available for benefits. In addition, a plan with a fiscal ~~year.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory” (“ASU 2015-11”). ASU 2015-11 simplifies the subsequent measurement of inventory by requiring inventory to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Entities will continue to apply their existing impairment models to inventories that are accounted for using last-in first-out or LIFO and the retail inventory method or RIM. Under current guidance, net realizable value is one of several calculations an entity needs to make to measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. ASU 2015-11 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, and the guidance must be applied prospectively after the date of adoption. ASU 2015-11 is effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2017. Adoption of ASU 2015-11 is not expected to have a material effect on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company.

~~Note 2. Acquisition~~

In May 2014, the FASB issued accounting guidance which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers under ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP when it becomes effective. On ~~January 12,~~July 9, 2015, the ~~Company completed the acquisition of substantially all~~FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, "Revenue From Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the ~~assets~~Effective Date," which defers the effective date of ~~Rae' Launo Corporation ("RLC") relating to its direct-store-delivery and in-room distribution business~~ASU 2014-09 by one year allowing early adoption as of the original effective date of January 1, 2017.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include RLC's results since the date of acquisition. At closing, the Company received substantially all of the fixed assets of RLC. The Company did not assume any liabilities of RLC. Disclosure of the impact of the acquisition on a pro forma basis as if the results of RLC had been included from the beginning of the periods presented has not been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as the impact was not material.

The acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination. The total purchase price has been allocated to tangible and intangible assets based on their estimated fair values as of January 12, 2015 as determined by management based upon a third-party valuation.

Note 3.2. Corporate Relocation Plan

On February 5, 2015, the Company announced the Corporate Relocation Plan ~~approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on February 3, 2015,~~ pursuant to which the Company will close its Torrance ~~California~~ facility and relocate these operations to a ~~new~~New Facility housing the Company's manufacturing, distribution, coffee lab and corporate ~~headquarters facility.~~headquarters. Approximately 350 positions were impacted as a result of the Torrance facility closure. The ~~new facility~~New Facility will be located in ~~the Town of~~ Northlake, ~~Denton County,~~ Texas in the Dallas/~~Ft.~~Fort Worth area. The Company’s decision resulted from a comprehensive review of alternatives designed to make the Company more competitive and better positioned to capitalize on growth opportunities.

The Company expects to close its Torrance facility in phases, ~~beginning~~and began the process in the ~~summer~~spring of 2015. Through April 2015, coffee purchasing, roasting, grinding, packaging and product development took place at the Company’s Torrance, California, Portland, Oregon and Houston, Texas production facilities. In May 2015, the Company moved the coffee roasting, grinding and packaging functions that had been conducted in Torrance to its Houston and Portland production facilities and in conjunction relocated its Houston distribution operations to its Oklahoma City distribution center. As of March 31, 2016, distribution continued to take place out of the Company’s Torrance and Portland production facilities, as well as separate distribution centers in Northlake, Illinois; Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; and Moonachie, New Jersey. Effective September 15, 2015, the Company transferred a majority of its primary administrative offices from Torrance to Fort Worth, Texas, where the Company has leased 32,000 square feet of temporary office space. The transfer of the Company’s primary administrative offices to this temporary office space was substantially completed in the second quarter of fiscal 2016. On December 8, 2015, the Company completed the sale of the Spice Assets to Harris Spice (see Note 4). Pursuant to a transitional co-packaging supply agreement, the Company will provide Harris Spice with certain transition services for a limited time period following closing of the sale. As a result, spice blending, grinding and packaging will continue to take place at the Company’s Torrance production facility until the conclusion of the transition services, which is expected to occur during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. In December 2015, the Company announced its plans to replace its long-haul fleet operations with third party logistics ("3PL") and a vendor managed inventory initiative. The first phase of the 3PL program began in January 2016 and is expected to be fully implemented by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. In April 2016, the Company entered into a purchase and sale agreement to sell its Torrance facility (see Note 5). Construction of ~~the new facility~~ and relocation to the New Facility are expected to be completed by the end of the ~~summer~~second quarter of ~~2016. Approximately 350 positions are impacted as a result~~fiscal 2017.

Based on current assumptions and subject to continued implementation of the ~~Torrance facility closure. The Torrance facility is expected to be sold after~~Corporate Relocation Plan as planned, the ~~relocation.~~Company estimates that it will incur approximately $30.0 million in cash costs consisting of $17.0 million in employee retention and separation benefits, $5.0 million in facility-related costs and $8.0 million in other related costs.

Expenses related to the Corporate Relocation Plan in the three months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 consisted of ~~$2.5~~$1.8 million in employee retention and separation benefits, ~~$0.1~~$0.8 million in ~~facility relocation~~facility-related costs ~~related to~~including lease of temporary office space and costs associated with the ~~relocation~~move of ~~certain distribution centers~~the Company's headquarters, and ~~$1.0~~$0.6 million in other related costs including travel, legal, consulting and other professional services. Facility-related costs in the three months ended March 31, 2016 also included $0.2 million in non-cash depreciation expense associated with the Torrance production facility resulting from the consolidation of coffee production operations with the Houston and Portland production facilities.

Expenses related to the Corporate Relocation Plan in the nine months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 consisted of ~~$2.5~~$8.5 million in employee retention and separation benefits, ~~$0.1~~$2.7 million in ~~facility relocation~~facility-related costs ~~related to~~including lease of temporary office space and costs associated with the ~~relocation~~move of ~~certain distribution centers~~the Company's headquarters, and ~~$2.0~~$2.7 million in other related costs including travel, legal, consulting and other professional services. Facility-related costs in the nine months ended March 31, 2016 also included $0.8 million in non-cash depreciation expense associated with the Torrance production facility resulting from the consolidation of coffee production operations with the Houston and Portland production facilities.

Since adoption of the Corporate Relocation Plan through March 31, 2016, the Company has recognized a total of $23.2 million of the estimated $30.0 million in aggregate cash costs consisting of an aggregate of $15.0 million in employee retention and separation benefits, $2.5 million in facility-related costs and $5.7 million in other related costs. The remainder is expected to be recognized in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 and the first half of fiscal 2017. The Company may incur certain other non-cash asset impairment costs, postretirement benefit costs and pension-related costs.

Note 3. Facility Lease Obligation

On July 17, 2015, the Company entered into the Lease Agreement pursuant to which the Company will lease a 538,000 square foot facility to be constructed on 28.2 acres of land located in Northlake, Texas, which will include corporate offices, areas dedicated to manufacturing and distribution, as well as a lab. The Lease Agreement was amended pursuant to the ~~finalization~~First Amendment to Lease Agreement, dated as of December 29, 2015 (the “First Amendment”), pursuant to which certain ~~estimates,~~delivery dates under the Lease Agreement were extended, and the Second Amendment to Lease Agreement, dated as of March 10, 2016 (the “Second Amendment”), pursuant to which, among other things, the base rent schedule was increased from $49.6 million to $56.6 million, the option purchase price under the Lease Agreement was increased from 103% to 103.5%, and certain construction items submitted by the Company were approved by the Lessor.

Based on the final budget, which reflects substantial completion of the principal design work for the New Facility, the Company estimates that itthe construction costs for the New Facility will ~~incur~~be approximately $25 million in cash costs in connection with the exit of the Torrance facility consisting of $14 million in employee retention and separation benefits, $4 million in facility relocation costs and $7 million in other related costs. The Company may incur certain other non-cash asset impairment costs and pension-related costs the amounts of which have not yet been determined.

The Company expects to recognize approximately 35% of the aggregate cash costs in fiscal 2015, including $4.6 million incurred in the first nine months of fiscal 2015, with the remainder expected to be recognized in fiscal 2016 and the first quarter of fiscal 2017. Subject to the finalization of the optimal size and build-out of the facility, the Company also expects to incur approximately $35$55.0 million to ~~$40~~$60.0 million ~~in new facility costs with~~plus an additional ~~$20~~$35.0 million to ~~$25~~$39.0 million in anticipated capital expenditures for machinery and equipment, furniture and fixtures, and related expenditures. ~~The capital expenditures associated with~~As compared to the ~~new~~preliminary budget, the final budget reflects, among other things, an increase in facility ~~are expected~~size and scope of building design, including a larger warehouse and a larger manufacturing footprint; additional infrastructure and automation to ~~be partially offset by~~support staged manufacturing and production line capacity allowing for future capacity growth; and certain other estimated landlord costs under the ~~net proceeds from the planned sale of the Company's Torrance facility.~~Lease Agreement. The majority of the ~~capital expenditures~~construction costs associated with the ~~new facility~~New Facility are expected to be incurred in ~~late fiscal 2016 or~~ early fiscal 2017. Principal design work for the New Facility was substantially completed in March 2016. The construction of the New Facility is estimated to be completed by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2017.

The New Facility will be constructed by Lessor, at its expense, in accordance with agreed upon specifications and plans determined as set forth in the Lease Agreement. Due to the Company's involvement in the construction of the New Facility, as the deemed general contractor, pursuant to ASC 840, the Company is required to capitalize during the construction period the cash and non-cash assets (with the exception of the land which is not capitalized) contributed by Lessor for the construction as property, plant and equipment on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, with an offsetting liability for the same amount payable to Lessor included in "Other long-term liabilities."

11The Company recorded an asset related to the facility lease obligation included in property, plant and equipment of $19.2 million at March 31, 2016. The facility lease obligation included in "Other long-term liabilities" on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet was $19.2 million at March 31, 2016 (see Note 13). There were no such amounts recorded at June 30, 2015. At March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2015, respectively, the Company had recorded $0 and $0.3 million in "Other receivables" included in "Accounts and notes receivable, net" on its consolidated balance sheets representing costs it incurred associated with the New Facility (see Note 9).

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)______________________________________________________________________________________________

A portion of the lease arrangement is allocated to land for which the Company will accrue rent expense during the construction period. The amount of rent expense accrued is determined using the fair value of the leased land at construction commencement and the Company’s incremental borrowing rate, and is recognized on a straight-line basis. Once rent payments commence under the Lease Agreement, all amounts in excess of accrued expense will be recorded as a debt-service payment and recognized as interest expense and a reduction of the financing obligation. Rent expense associated with the portion of the lease arrangement allocated to the land included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016 was $67,000 and $0.2 million, respectively. There was no comparable rent expense in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015.

The Lease Agreement contains a purchase option exercisable at any time by the Company on or before ninety days prior to the scheduled completion date with an option purchase price equal to 103.5% of the total project cost as of the date of the option closing if the option closing occurs on or before July 17, 2016. The option purchase price will increase by 0.35% per month thereafter up to and including the date which is the earlier of (A) ninety days after the scheduled completion date and (B) December 31, 2016. Based upon, among other things, the final budget which includes amounts in respect of construction costs, acquisition of the land upon which the New Facility will be constructed, Lessor and Company fees and expenses (such as legal fees), and preliminary contingency amounts of $2.7 million, the Company estimates that, if it were to exercise the purchase option under the Lease Agreement on or before July 17, 2016, the option purchase price in lieu of the lease payments would be $58.6 million payable in the year ending June 30, 2017. The decision of whether to exercise the option or not will depend upon, among other things, whether the Company can consummate the sale of the Torrance facility at the negotiated price. If the Company does not exercise the purchase option by December 31, 2016, the obligation to pay annual base rent under the Lease Agreement will commence.

The initial term of the lease is for 15 years from the rent commencement date with six options to renew, each with a renewal term of 5 years. The annual base rent under the Lease Agreement will be an amount equal to:

•the product of 7.50% and (a) the total estimated budget for the project, or (b) all construction costs outlined in the final budget on or prior to the scheduled completion date; or

•the product of 7.50% and the total project costs, to the extent that all components of the document delivery and completion requirement are fully satisfied on or prior to the scheduled completion date.

Based on the final budget, the Company estimates that the annual base rent would be approximately $4.2 million. The annual base rent will increase by 2% during each year of the lease term.

On July 17, 2015, the Company also entered into a Development Management Agreement (the “DMA”) with Stream Realty Partners-DFW, L.P., a Texas limited partnership (“Developer”). Pursuant to the DMA, which was amended ("First Amendment to DMA") on January 5, 2016 to amend certain dates and on March 25, 2016 ("Second Amendment to DMA") to acknowledge satisfaction of certain project commencement conditions, the Company retained the services of Developer to manage, coordinate, represent, assist and advise the Company on matters concerning the pre-development, development, design, entitlement, infrastructure, site preparation and construction of the New Facility. The term of the DMA is from July 17, 2015 until final completion of the project. Pursuant to the DMA, the Company will pay Developer:

•a development fee of 3.25% of all development costs;

•an oversight fee of 2% of any amounts paid to the Company-contracted parties for any oversight by Developer of Company-contracted work;

•an incentive fee, the amount of which will be determined by the parties, if final completion occurs prior to the scheduled completion date; and

•an amount equal to $2.6 million as additional fee in respect of development services.

Note 4. Sale of Spice Assets

On December 8, 2015, the Company completed the sale of the Spice Assets to Harris Spice. Harris Spice acquired substantially all of the Company’s personal property used exclusively in connection with the Spice Assets, including certain equipment; trademarks, tradenames and other intellectual property assets; contract rights under sales and purchase orders and certain other agreements; and a list of certain customers, other than the Company’s DSD Customers, and assumed certain

liabilities relating to the Spice Assets. The Company received $6.0 million in cash at closing, and is eligible to receive an earnout amount of up to $5.0 million over a three year period based upon a percentage of certain institutional spice sales by Harris Spice following the closing. The Company recognized $0.4 million in earnout during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016, of which $0.3 million was included in gain from sale of Spice Assets in each of the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016.

In connection with the sale of the Spice Assets, the Company and Harris Spice entered into certain other agreements, including (1) a transitional co-packaging supply agreement pursuant to which the Company, as the contractor, will provide Harris Spice with certain transition services for a six-month transitional period following the closing of the asset sale, and (2) an exclusive supply agreement pursuant to which Harris Spice will supply to the Company, after the closing of the asset sale, spice and culinary products that were previously manufactured by the Company on negotiated pricing terms. While title to the Spice Assets transferred at closing, certain of the assets purchased by Harris Spice are expected to be transferred to Harris Spice's own manufacturing facilities, in phases, during the transitional period. After the closing of the asset sale, the Company will continue to sell certain spice and other culinary products purchased from Harris Spice under that supply agreement to the Company’s DSD Customers.

Note 5. Assets Held for Sale

The Company has listed for sale its Torrance facility and certain of its branch properties in Northern California. The Company is actively marketing these properties and has entered into purchase and sale agreements with prospective buyers. The Company expects these properties will be sold within one year. Accordingly, the Company has designated these properties as assets held for sale and recorded the carrying values of these properties in the aggregate amount of $9.3 million as "Assets held for sale" on the Company's consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2016.

Offsetting of Derivative Assets and Liabilities

The Company has agreements in place that allow for the financial right of offset for derivative assets and liabilities at settlement or in the event of default under the agreements. Additionally, the Company maintains accounts with its brokers to facilitate financial derivative transactions in support of its risk management activities. Based on the value of the Company’s positions in these accounts and the associated margin requirements, the Company may be required to deposit cash into these broker accounts.

The following table presents the Company’s net exposure from its offsetting derivative asset and liability positions, as well as cash collateral on deposit with its counterparty as of the reporting dates indicated:

Credit-Risk-Related Features

The Company does not have any credit-risk-related contingent features that would require it to post additional collateral in support of its net derivative liability positions. At March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2015, as the Company had ~~a net loss position~~$0 and $1.0 million in ~~its~~restricted cash representing cash held on deposit in margin accounts for coffee-related derivative margin accounts, $7.2 million of the cash in these accounts was restricted. At June 30, 2014, as the Company had a net gain position in its coffee-related derivative margin accounts, none of the cash in these accounts was restricted.instruments. Changes in commodity prices and the number of coffee-related derivative instruments held could have a significant impact on cash deposit requirements under the Company's broker and counterparty agreements.

Cash Flow Hedges

Changes in the fair value of the Company's coffee-related derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges, to the extent effective, are deferred in AOCI and ~~subsequently~~ reclassified into cost of goods sold in the same period or periods in which the hedged forecasted purchases affect earnings, or when it is probable that the hedged forecasted transaction will not occur by the end of the originally specified time period. Based on recorded values at March 31, ~~2015, $(11.4)~~2016, $3.4 million of net losses on coffee-related derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges are expected to be reclassified into cost of goods

These gains or losses are expected to substantially offset net losses or gains that will be realized in earnings from previous unfavorable or favorable market movements associated with underlying hedged transactions.

Note 6.8. Fair Value Measurements

The Company groups its assets and liabilities at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:

Level 1—Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.

Level 2—Valuation is based upon inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Inputs include quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, and quoted prices for similar instruments in markets that are not active. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued with industry standard valuation models that incorporate inputs that are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, or can otherwise be derived from or supported by observable market data in the marketplace.

Level 3—Valuation is based upon one or more unobservable inputs that are significant in establishing a fair value estimate. These unobservable inputs are used to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available and are developed based on the best information available. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.

Securities with quotes that are based on actual trades or actionable bids and offers with a sufficient level of activity on or near the measurement date are classified as Level 1. Securities that are priced using quotes derived from implied values, indicative bids and offers, or a limited number of actual trades, or the same information for securities that are similar in many respects to those being valued, are classified as Level 2. If market information is not available for securities being valued, or materially-comparable securities, then those securities are classified as Level 3. In considering market information, management evaluates changes in liquidity, willingness of a broker to execute at the quoted price, the depth and consistency of prices from pricing services, and the existence of observable trades in the market.

~~Farmer Bros. Co.~~

~~Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)______________________________________________________________________________________________~~

above table represent the value of raw materials and the “Processed” inventory values represent all other products consisting primarily of finished goods.

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. The Company accounts for coffee, tea and culinary products on the last in, first out ("LIFO") basis and coffee brewing equipment parts on the first in, first out ("FIFO") basis. The Company regularly evaluates these inventories to determine whether market conditions are appropriately reflected in the recorded carrying value. At the end of each quarter, the Company records the expected effect of the liquidation of LIFO inventory quantities, if any, and records the actual impact at fiscal year-end. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method is made only at the end of each fiscal year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. If inventory quantities decline at the end of the fiscal year compared to the beginning of the fiscal year, the reduction results in the liquidation of LIFO inventory quantities carried at the cost prevailing in prior years. This LIFO inventory liquidation may result in a decrease or increase in cost of goods sold depending on whether the cost prevailing in prior years was lower or higher, respectively, than the current year cost. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations must necessarily be based on management's estimates of expected fiscal year-end inventory levels and costs. ~~Because~~As these estimates are subject to many forces beyond management's control, interim results are subject to the final fiscal year-end LIFO inventory valuation. ~~The~~

Because the Company anticipates that its inventory levels at June 30, ~~2015~~2016 will decrease from June 30, ~~2014~~2015 levels, ~~and, therefore,~~the Company recorded ~~$0.7~~$0.8 million and ~~$3.2~~$1.1 million in expected beneficial effect of the liquidation of LIFO inventory ~~liquidation~~quantities in cost of goods sold in the three and nine months ended March 31, ~~2015, respectively,~~2016, which ~~reduced~~increased net ~~loss~~income for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016 by $0.8 million and $1.1 million, respectively. In the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015, the Company recorded $0.7 million and $3.2 million, respectively, in expected beneficial effect of LIFO inventory liquidation in cost of goods sold which increased net income for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015 by $0.7 million and ~~increased net income for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 by~~ $3.2 ~~million.

In addition, the Company sponsors a postretirement defined benefit plan that covers qualified non-union retirees and certain qualified union retirees and provides retiree medical coverage and, depending on the age of the retiree, dental and vision coverage. The Company also provides a postretirement death benefit to certain of its employees and retirees.

The Company is required to recognize the funded status of a benefit plan onin its consolidated balance sheets. The Company is also required to recognize in other comprehensive income (loss) ~~("OCI"~~(“OCI”) certain gains and losses that arise during the period but are deferred under pension accounting rules.

Single Employer Pension Plans

The Company has a defined benefit pension plan, the Farmer Bros. Co. Pension Plan for Salaried Employees (the “Farmer Bros. Plan”), for ~~the majority of its~~ employees hired prior to January 1, 2010 who are not covered under a collective bargaining agreement. The Company amended the Farmer Bros. Plan, freezing the benefit for all participants effective June 30, 2011. After the plan freeze, participants do not accrue any benefits under the Farmer Bros. Plan, and new hires are not eligible to participate in the Farmer Bros. Plan. As all plan participants became inactive following this pension curtailment, net (gain) loss is now amortized based on the remaining life expectancy of these participants instead of the remaining service period of these participants.

The Company also has two defined benefit pension plans for certain hourly employees covered under collective bargaining agreements (the “Brewmatic Plan” and the “Hourly Employees' Plan”). The Company actuarially determined that no adjustments were required to be made to fiscal 2015 net periodic benefit cost for the defined benefit pension plans as a result of the Corporate Relocation Plan.

Basis Used to Determine Expected Long-Term Return on Plan Assets

The expected long-term return on plan assets assumption was developed as a weighted average rate based on the target asset allocation of the plan and the ~~long-term capital market assumptions.~~Long-Term Capital Market Assumptions (CMA) 2014. The ~~overall rate for each asset class was developed by combining a long-term inflation component and the associated expected real rates. The development of the~~ capital market assumptions ~~utilized~~were developed with a ~~variety~~primary focus on forward-looking valuation models and market indicators. The key fundamental economic inputs for these models are future inflation, economic growth, and interest rate environment. Due to the long-term nature of ~~methodologies, including, but not limited~~the pension obligations, the investment horizon for the CMA 2014 is 20 to 30 years. In addition to forward-looking models, historical analysis ~~stock valuation models such~~of market data and trends was reflected, as ~~dividend discount models~~well as the outlook of recognized economists, organizations and ~~earnings yields' models, expected economic growth outlook and market yields analysis.~~consensus CMA from other credible studies.

Multiemployer Pension Plans

The Company participates in two multiemployer defined benefit pension plans that are union sponsored and collectively bargained for the benefit of certain employees subject to collective bargaining agreements, of which the Western Conference of Teamsters Pension Plan is individually significant. The Company makes contributions to these plans generally based on the number of hours worked by the participants in accordance with the provisions of negotiated labor contracts.

Farmer Bros. Co.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)______________________________________________________________________________________________

The risks of participating in multiemployer pension plans are different from single-employer plans in that: (i) assets contributed to a multiemployer plan by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers; (ii) if a participating employer stops contributing to the plan, the unfunded obligations of the plan may be borne by the remaining participating employers; and (iii) if the Company stops participating in the multiemployer plan, the Company may be required to pay the plan an amount based on the underfunded status of the plan, referred to as a withdrawal liability.

In fiscal 2012, the Company withdrew from the Local 807 Labor Management Pension Fund (the "Pension Fund") and recorded a charge of $4.3 million associated with withdrawal from this plan, representing the present value of the estimated withdrawal liability expected to be paid in quarterly installments of $0.1 million over 80 quarters. ~~Installment payments will commence once the final determination of the amount of~~The $4.3 million estimated withdrawal liability, ~~is established.

Multiemployer Plans Other Than Pension Plans

The Company participates in ~~ten~~eleven multiemployer defined contribution plans other than pension plans that provide medical, vision, dental and disability benefits for active, union-represented employees subject to collective bargaining agreements. The plans are subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, and provide that participating employers make monthly contributions to the plans in an amount as specified in the collective bargaining agreements. Also, the plans provide that participants make self-payments to the plans, the amounts of which are negotiated through the collective bargaining process. The Company's participation in these plans is governed by collective bargaining agreements which expire on or before January 31, 2020.

401(k) Plan

The Company's 401(k) Plan is available to all eligible employees who have worked more than 1,000 hours during a calendar year and were employed at the end of the calendar year. Participants in the 401(k) Plan may choose to contribute a percentage of their annual pay subject to the maximum contribution allowed by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company's matching contribution is discretionary based on approval by the Company's Board of Directors. For the calendar years ~~2015~~2016 and ~~2014,~~2015, the Company's Board of Directors approved a Company matching contribution of 50% of an employee's annual contribution to the 401(k) Plan, up to 6% of the employee's eligible income. The matching contributions (and any earnings thereon) vest at the rate of 20% for each participant's first 5 years of vesting service, ~~so that~~subject to accelerated vesting under certain circumstances in connection with the ~~participant is fully vested in his~~Corporate Relocation Plan due to the closure of the Company’s Torrance facility or ~~her matching contribution account after~~ ~~5 years~~a reduction-in-force at another Company facility designated by the Administrative Committee of ~~vesting service.~~the Farmer Bros. Co. Qualified Employee Retirement Plans. A participant is automatically vested in the event of death, disability or attainment of age 65 while employed by the Company. Employees are 100% vested in their contributions. For employees subject to a collective bargaining agreement, the match is only available if so provided in the labor agreement.

The Company recorded matching contributions of ~~$1.1~~$1.2 million and ~~$1.0~~$1.1 million in operating expenses in the nine months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 and ~~2014,~~2015, respectively.

Postretirement Benefits

The Company sponsors a postretirement defined benefit plan that covers qualified non-union retirees and certain qualified ~~union~~ retirees ("(“Retiree Medical ~~Plan"~~Plan”). The plan provides medical, dental and vision coverage for retirees under age 65 and medical coverage only for retirees age 65 and above. Under this postretirement plan, the Company’s contributions toward premiums for retiree medical, dental and vision coverage for participants and dependents are scaled based on length of service, with greater Company contributions for retirees with greater length of service, subject to a maximum monthly Company contribution.

The Company also provides a postretirement death benefit ("Death Benefit") to certain of its employees and retirees, subject, in the case of current employees, to continued employment with the Company until retirement and certain other

conditions related to the manner of employment termination and manner of death. The Company records the actuarially determined liability for the present value of the postretirement death benefit. The Company has purchased life insurance policies to fund the postretirement death benefit wherein the Company owns the policy but the postretirement death benefit is paid to the employee's or retiree's beneficiary. The Company records an asset for the fair value of the life insurance policies which equates to the cash surrender value of the policies.

Note ~~10.~~12. Bank Loan

On March 2, 2015, the Company, as Borrower, together with its wholly owned subsidiaries, Coffee Bean International, Inc., an Oregon corporation ("CBI"), FBC Finance Company, a California corporation, and Coffee Bean Holding Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation, as additional Loan Parties and as Guarantors, entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) and a related Pledge and Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Chase”), as Administrative Agent, and SunTrust Bank (“SunTrust”), as Syndication Agent (collectively, the "Lenders") (capitalized terms used below are defined in the Credit Agreement). The Credit Agreement replaces the Company’s September 12, 2011 Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. that expired on March 2, 2015 (the “Wells Fargo Credit Facility”).

The Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured revolving credit facility (“Revolving Facility”) of up to $75.0 million (“Revolving Commitment”) consisting of Revolving Loans, Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans provided by the Lenders, with a sublimit on Letters of Credit outstanding at any time of $30.0 million and a sublimit for Swingline Loans of $15.0 million. Chase agreed to provide $45.0 million of the Revolving Commitment and SunTrust agreed to provide $30.0 million of the Revolving Commitment. The Credit Agreement also includes an accordion feature whereby the Company may increase the Revolving Commitment by an aggregate amount not to exceed $50.0 million, subject to certain conditions.

The Credit Agreement provides for advances of up to: (a) 85% of the Borrowers' eligible accounts receivable, plus (b) 75% of the Borrowers' eligible inventory (not to exceed 85% of the product of the most recent Net Orderly Liquidation Value percentage multiplied by the Borrowers’ eligible inventory), plus (c) the lesser of $25.0 million and 75% of the fair market value of the Borrowers’ Eligible Real Property, subject to certain limitations, plus (d) the lesser of $10.0 million and the Net Orderly Liquidation Value of certain trademarks, less (e) reserves established by the Administrative Agent.

Farmer Bros. Co.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)______________________________________________________________________________________________

The Credit Agreement has a commitment fee ranging from 0.25% to 0.375% per annum based on Average Revolver Usage. Outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement are collateralized by all of the Borrowers’ and the Guarantors’ assets, excluding, among other things, real property not included in the Borrowing Base, machinery and equipment (other than inventory), and the Company’s preferred stock portfolio. The Credit Agreement expires on March 2, 2020.

The Credit Agreement provides for interest rates based on Average Historical Excess Availability levels with a range of PRIME - 0.25% to PRIME + 0.50% or Adjusted LIBO Rate + 1.25% to Adjusted LIBO Rate + 2.00%.

The Credit Agreement contains a variety of affirmative and negative covenants of types customary in an asset-based lending facility, including financial covenants relating to the maintenance of a fixed charge coverage ratio in certain circumstances. The Credit Agreement allows the Company to pay dividends, provided, among other things, certain Excess Availability requirements are met, and no event of default exists or has occurred and is continuing as of the date of any such payment and after giving effect thereto. The Credit Agreement also allows the Lenders to establish reserve requirements, which may reduce the amount of credit otherwise available to the Company, and provides for customary events of default.

OnAt March 31, ~~2015,~~2016, the Company was eligible to borrow up to a total of ~~$66.5~~$59.2 million under the Revolving Facility. ~~As of~~At March 31, ~~2015,~~2016, the Company had outstanding borrowings of ~~$10.1~~$0.3 million, utilized ~~$11.0~~$11.5 million of the letters of credit sublimit including $7.0 million as a security deposit for self-insuring California workers' compensation liability and $4.3 million as a security deposit for self-insuring workers' compensation, general liability and auto insurance coverages outside of California, and had excess availability under the Revolving Facility of ~~$45.4~~$47.4 million. At March 31, ~~2015,~~2016, the weighted average interest rate on the Company's outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Facility was ~~2.4%~~1.67%. ~~As of~~At March 31, ~~2015,~~2016, the Company was in compliance with all of the restrictive covenants under the Credit Agreement.

Effective December 1, 2012, the Company entered into an interest rate swap transaction utilizing a notional amount of $10.0 million and a maturity date of March 1, 2015. The Company entered into the swap transaction to effectively fix the future interest rate during the applicable period on a portion of its borrowings under the Wells Fargo Credit Facility. The swap transaction was intended to manage the Company's interest rate risk related to the Wells Fargo Credit Facility and required the Company to pay a fixed rate of 0.48% per annum in exchange for a variable interest rate based on 1-month USD LIBOR-BBA. The Company terminated the swap transaction on March 5, 2014 and had no interest rate swap transactions in place at March 31, 2015.

The Company did not designate its interest rate swap as an accounting hedge. The Company recorded the interest rate swap on its consolidated balance sheets at fair value with the changes in fair value recorded as gain or loss in "Other, net" in its consolidated statements of operations. No such gain or loss was recorded in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015. The Company recorded a gain of $0 in the three months ended March 31, 2014 and a loss of $(5,000) in the nine months ended March 31, 2014 for the change in fair value of its interest rate swap (see Note 4).

Note ~~12.~~14. Share-based Compensation

On December 5, 2013, the Company’s stockholders approved the Farmer Bros. Co. Amended and Restated 2007 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Amended Equity Plan”), which is an amendment and restatement of, and successor to, the Farmer Bros. Co. 2007 Omnibus ~~Plan (the "Omnibus Plan").~~Plan. The principal change to the Amended Equity Plan was to limit awards under the plan to performance-based stock options and to restricted stock under limited circumstances.

Stock Options

The share-based compensation expense recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations is based on awards ultimately expected to vest. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the service period based on the estimated fair value of the stock options. The Company estimates the fair value of option awards using the Black-Scholes option valuation model, which requires management to make certain assumptions for estimating the fair value of stock options at the date of grant. The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded

~~Farmer Bros. Co.~~

~~Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)______________________________________________________________________________________________~~

options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company’s stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimates, in management’s opinion the existing models may not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of the Company’s stock options. Although the fair value of stock options is determined using an

Farmer Bros. Co.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)______________________________________________________________________________________________

option valuation model, that value may not be indicative of the fair value observed in a willing buyer/willing seller market transaction.

Non-Qualified Stock Options with Time-Based Vesting (“NQOs”)

In the nine months ended March 31, 2016, the Company granted 18,589 shares issuable upon the exercise of NQOs with a weighted average exercise price of $29.17 per share to eligible employees under the Amended Equity Plan which vest ratably over a three-year period. In the nine months ended March 31, 2015, the Company granted 13,123 shares issuable upon the exercise of NQOs with a weighted average exercise price of $23.44 per share to eligible employees under the Amended Equity Plan which vest ratably over a three-year period.

Following are the weighted average assumptions used in the Black-Scholes valuation model for ~~non-qualified stock options with time-based vesting ("NQOs") and non-qualified stock options with performance-based and time-based vesting ("PNQs")~~NQOs granted during the nine months ended March 31, ~~2015 and 2014:~~ 2016.


	Nine Months Ended March 31,						Nine Months Ended March 31, 2016

Weighted average fair value of NQOs and PNQs	$	10.16		$	9.17

Dividend yield	—		%	—		%	—		%
Average expected term	5.1 years			6.0 years			5.1 years
Expected stock price volatility	47.9		%	50.4		%	47.9		%

The Company’s assumption regarding expected stock price volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock price. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues at the date of grant with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the stock options. The average expected term is based on historical weighted time outstanding and the expected weighted time outstanding calculated by assuming the settlement of outstanding awards at the midpoint between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term of the award. Currently, management estimates an annual forfeiture rate of 4.8% based on actual forfeiture experience. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

~~NQOs~~

In the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015, the Company granted 13,123 shares issuable upon the exercise of NQOs with an exercise price of $23.44 per share to an eligible employee under the Amended Equity Plan which vest ratably over a three-year period.

~~PNQs~~Non-Qualified Stock Options with Performance-Based and Time-Based Vesting (“PNQs”)

In the ~~three and~~ nine months ended March 31, ~~2015,~~2016, the Company granted ~~121,024~~143,466 shares issuable upon the exercise of PNQs with ana weighted average exercise price ~~equal to $23.44~~of $29.48 per share to eligible employees under the Amended Equity Plan. These PNQs vest over a three-year period with one-third of the total number of shares subject to each such PNQ becoming exercisable each year on the anniversary of the grant date, ~~commencing on February 9, 2016,~~ based on the Company’s achievement of a modified net income ~~targets~~target for fiscal ~~years within the performance period~~2016 ("FY16 Target") as approved by the Compensation Committee, subject to catch-up vesting of previously unvested shares in a subsequent year within the three year period in which a cumulative modified net income target as approved by the Compensation Committee is achieved, in each case, subject to the participant’s employment by the Company or service on the Board of Directors of the Company on the applicable vesting ~~date~~dates and the acceleration provisions contained in the Amended Equity Plan and the applicable award agreement. But if actual modified net income for fiscal 2016 is less than the FY16 Target, then 20% of the total shares issuable under such grant will be forfeited.

Shares of restricted stock generally vest at the end of three years for eligible employees. Shares of restricted stock generally vest ratably over a period of three years for directors. During the nine months ended March 31, 2015, 28,402 shares of restricted stock vested, of which 4,297 shares were withheld to meet the employees' minimum statutory tax withholding and retired.

Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the service period based on the estimated fair value of the restricted stock. Compensation expense recognized in the each of the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 was $0.1 million. Compensation expense recognized in the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 was $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

Note ~~13.~~15. Income Taxes

The Company's effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 were ~~7.84%~~3.5% and ~~7.54%~~5.3%, ~~respectively, and the~~respectively. The Company’s effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended March 31, ~~2014~~2015 were ~~6.98%~~7.8% and ~~9.04%~~7.5%, respectively.

The Company's effective tax rates for the current and prior year periods were lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the ~~favorable~~ impact of ~~utilizing~~ the Company's net operating losses to offset taxable income. As ~~these~~ net operating losses are used, the corresponding valuation allowance is decreased.

The Company evaluates its deferred tax assets quarterly to determine if a valuation allowance is required. The Company considered whether a valuation allowance should be recorded against deferred tax assets based on the likelihood that the benefits of the deferred tax assets would or would not ultimately be realized in future periods. In making this assessment, significant weight was given to evidence that could be objectively verified such as recent operating results and less consideration was given to less objective indicators such as future earnings projections.

After consideration of positive and negative evidence, including the recent history of losses, the Company cannot conclude that it is more likely than not that it will generate future earnings sufficient to realize the Company's net deferred tax

assets. Accordingly, the Company is maintaining a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets. The Company decreased its valuation allowance by ~~$0.5~~$0.6 million in the three months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 to ~~$69.9~~$82.5 million. The valuation allowance at June 30, ~~2014~~2015 was ~~$72.6~~$84.9 million.

The Company will continue to monitor ~~its cumulative three-year loss position together with~~ all ~~other~~ available evidence, both positive and negative, in determining whether it is more likely than not that the Company will realize its net deferred tax assets.

As of March 31, ~~2015~~2016 and June 30, ~~2014,~~2015, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits. ~~In April 2015~~The Internal Revenue Service is currently auditing the ~~IRS notified the Company that it would audit its~~Company's tax year ~~ending~~ended June 30, 2013.

~~Corrections to Previously Issued Financial Statements~~

Management’s discussion and analysis gives effect to the correction of certain errors to the accompanying unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 as discussed in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Form 10‑Q.

Corporate Relocation Plan

On February 5, 2015, we announced a plan ~~(the "Corporate Relocation Plan")~~ approved by our Board of Directors on February 3, 2015, pursuant to which we will close our Torrance, California facility and relocate these operations to a new ~~state-of-the-art~~facility (the "New Facility") housing our manufacturing, distribution, coffee lab and corporate headquarters ~~facility.~~(the "Corporate Relocation Plan"). Approximately 350 positions are impacted as a result of the Torrance facility closure. The New Facility will be located in Northlake, Texas in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. Our decision resulted from a comprehensive review of alternatives designed to make the Company more competitive and better positioned to capitalize on growth opportunities. ~~The new facility will be located in the Town of Northlake, Denton County, Texas in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area.~~

We expect to close our Torrance facility in phases, ~~beginning~~and we began the process in the ~~summer~~spring of 2015. Through April 2015, coffee purchasing, roasting, grinding, packaging and product development took place at our Torrance, California, Portland, Oregon and Houston, Texas production facilities. In May 2015, we moved the coffee roasting, grinding and packaging functions that had been conducted in Torrance to our Houston and Portland production facilities and in conjunction relocated our Houston distribution operations to our Oklahoma City distribution center. As of March 31, 2016, distribution continued to take place out of our Torrance and Portland production facilities, as well as separate distribution centers in Northlake, Illinois; Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; and Moonachie, New Jersey. Effective September 15, 2015, we transferred a majority of our primary administrative offices from Torrance to Fort Worth, Texas, where we have leased 32,000 square feet of temporary office space. The transfer of our primary administrative offices to this temporary office space was substantially completed in the second quarter of fiscal 2016. On December 8, 2015, we completed the sale of certain assets associated with our manufacture, processing and distribution of raw, processed and blended spices and certain other culinary products (collectively, the “Spice Assets”) to Harris Spice Company Inc., a California corporation (“Harris Spice”). Pursuant to a transitional co-packaging supply agreement, we will provide Harris Spice with certain transition services for a limited time period following closing of the sale. As a result, spice blending, grinding and packaging will continue to take place at our Torrance production facility until the conclusion of the transition services, which is expected to occur during the fourth quarter

of fiscal 2016. In December 2015, we announced our plans to replace our long-haul fleet operations with third party logistics ("3PL") and a vendor managed inventory initiative. The first phase of the 3PL program began in January 2016 and is expected to be fully implemented by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. In April 2016, we entered into a purchase and sale agreement to sell our Torrance facility. Construction of ~~the new facility~~ and relocation to the New Facility are expected to be completed by the end of the ~~summer~~second quarter of ~~2016. Approximately 350 positions are impacted as a result~~fiscal 2017.

Based on current assumptions and subject to continued implementation of ~~the Torrance facility closure. The Torrance facility is expected to be sold after the relocation.~~

~~Expenses related to~~ the Corporate Relocation Plan ~~included~~as planned, we estimate that we will incur approximately $30.0 million in ~~"Relocation and other transition expenses"~~cash costs consisting of $17.0 million in ~~our consolidated statements of operations include~~ employee retention and separation benefits, ~~facility relocation~~$5.0 million in facility-related costs and $8.0 million in other related costs such as travel, legal, consulting and other professional services. In order to receive the retention and/or separation benefits, impacted employees are required to provide service through their retention dates which vary from May 2015 through March 2016 or separation dates which vary from May 2015 through June 2016. A liability for such retention and separation benefits was recorded at the communication date in "Accrued payroll expenses" on our consolidated balance sheets and will be updated in subsequent periods based on the then available estimates until all obligations are settled. Facility relocation costs and other related costs are recognized in the period when the liability is incurred.costs.

Expenses related to the Corporate Relocation Plan in the three months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 consisted of ~~$2.5~~$1.8 million in employee retention and ~~termination costs, $0.1~~separation benefits, $0.8 million in ~~facility relocation~~facility-related costs ~~related to~~including lease of temporary office space and costs associated with the ~~relocation~~move of ~~certain distribution centers~~the Company's headquarters, and ~~$1.0~~$0.6 million in other related costs including travel, legal, consulting and other

professional services. Facility-related costs in the three months ended March 31, 2016 also included $0.2 million in non-cash depreciation expense associated with the Torrance production facility resulting from the consolidation of coffee production operations with the Houston and Portland production facilities.

Since adoption of the Corporate Relocation Plan through March 31, 2016, we have recognized a total of $23.2 million of the estimated $30.0 million in aggregate cash costs consisting of an aggregate of $15.0 million in employee retention and separation benefits, $2.5 million in facility-related costs and $5.7 million in other related costs. The remainder is expected to be recognized in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 and the first half of fiscal 2017. We may incur certain other non-cash asset impairment costs, postretirement benefit costs and pension-related costs.

Facility Lease Obligation

On July 17, 2015, we entered into a lease agreement, as amended (the “Lease Agreement”) with WF-FB NLTX, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Lessor”), to lease a 538,000 square foot facility to be constructed on 28.2 acres of land located in Northlake, Texas, which will include corporate offices, areas dedicated to manufacturing and distribution, as well as a lab. The Lease Agreement was amended pursuant to the First Amendment to Lease Agreement, dated as of December 29, 2015 (the “First Amendment”), pursuant to which certain delivery dates under

the Lease Agreement were extended, and the Second Amendment to Lease Agreement, dated as of March 10, 2016 (the “Second Amendment”), pursuant to which, among other things, the base rent schedule was increased from $49.6 million to $56.6 million, the option purchase price under the Lease Agreement was increased from 103% to 103.5%, and certain construction items submitted by the Company were approved by the Lessor. The foregoing summary of the First Amendment and the Second Amendment does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the First Amendment and the Second Amendment which are filed with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as Exhibit 10.36 and Exhibit 10.37, respectively. Principal design work for the New Facility was substantially completed in March 2016. The construction of the New Facility is estimated to be completed by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2017.

The New Facility will be constructed by Lessor, at its expense, in accordance with agreed upon specifications and plans determined as set forth in the Lease Agreement. Due to our involvement in the construction of the New Facility, as the deemed general contractor, pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 840, “Leases,” we are required to capitalize during the construction period the cash and non-cash assets (with the exception of the land which is not capitalized) contributed by Lessor for the construction as property, plant and equipment on our consolidated balance ~~sheets.~~

~~(2) Included~~sheets with an offsetting liability for the same amount payable to Lessor included in "Other long-term liabilities." We recorded an asset related to the facility lease obligation included in property, plant and equipment of $19.2 million at March 31, 2016. The facility lease obligation included in "Other long-term liabilities" on our consolidated balance sheet was $19.2 million at March 31, 2016. There were no such amounts recorded at June 30, 2015. At March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2015, respectively, we recorded $0 and $0.3 million in “Other receivables” included in "Accounts ~~payable"~~and notes receivable, net" on ~~the~~our consolidated balance ~~sheets.~~sheets representing costs we incurred associated with the New Facility.

~~Subject~~A portion of the lease arrangement is allocated to the ~~finalization~~land for which we will accrue rent expense during the construction period. The amount of ~~certain estimates,~~rent expense to be accrued is determined using the fair value of the leased land at construction commencement and our incremental borrowing rate, and is recognized on a straight-line basis. Once rent payments commence under the Lease Agreement, all amounts in excess of accrued rent expense will be recorded as a debt-service payment and recognized as interest expense and a reduction of the financing obligation. Rent expense associated with the portion of the lease arrangement allocated to the land included in our consolidated statements of operations in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016 was $67,000 and $0.2 million, respectively. There was no comparable rent expense in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015.

The Lease Agreement contains a purchase option exercisable at any time by us on or before ninety days prior to the scheduled completion date with an option purchase price equal to 103.5% of the total project cost as of the date of the option closing if the option closing occurs on or before July 17, 2016. The option purchase price will increase by 0.35% per month thereafter up to and including the date which is the earlier of (A) ninety days after the scheduled completion date and (B) December 31, 2016. Based upon, among other things, the final budget which includes amounts in respect of construction costs, acquisition of the land upon which the New Facility will be constructed, Lessor and Company fees and expenses (such as legal fees), and preliminary contingency amounts of $2.7 million, we estimate that, if we were to exercise the purchase option under the Lease Agreement on or before July 17, 2016, the option purchase price in lieu of the lease payments would be $58.6 million payable in the year ending June 30, 2017. The decision of whether to exercise the option or not will depend upon, among other things, whether we can consummate the sale of the Torrance facility at the negotiated price. If we do not exercise the purchase option by December 31, 2016, the obligation to pay rent under the Lease Agreement will commence. The initial term of the lease is for 15 years from the rent commencement date with six options to renew, each with a renewal term of 5 years. The annual base rent under the Lease Agreement will be an amount equal to:

•the product of 7.50% and (a) the total estimated budget for the project, or (b) all construction costs outlined in the final budget on or prior to the scheduled completion date; or

Based on the final budget, we estimate that the annual base rent would be approximately $4.2 million. The annual base rent will increase by 2% during each year of the lease term.

On July 17, 2015, we also entered into a Development Management Agreement (the “DMA”) with Stream Realty Partners-DFW, L.P., a Texas limited partnership (“Developer”). Pursuant to the DMA, which was amended ("First Amendment to DMA") on January 5, 2016, to amend certain dates and on March 25, 2016 ("Second Amendment to DMA") to acknowledge satisfaction of certain project commencement conditions, we retained the services of Developer to manage, coordinate, represent, assist and advise us on matters concerning the pre-development,

development, design, entitlement, infrastructure, site preparation and construction of the New Facility. The foregoing summary of the First Amendment to DMA and the Second Amendment to DMA does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the First Amendment to DMA and the Second Amendment to DMA which are filed with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as Exhibit 10.39 and Exhibit 10.40, respectively. The term of the DMA is from July 17, 2015 until final completion of the project. Pursuant to the DMA, we will ~~incur approximately $25~~pay Developer:

a development fee of 3.25% of all development costs;

an oversight fee of 2% of any amounts paid to the Company-contracted parties for any oversight by Developer of Company-contracted work;

an incentive fee, the amount of which will be determined by the parties, if final completion occurs prior to the scheduled completion date; and

an amount equal to $2.6 million as additional fee in ~~cash costs~~respect of development services.

Sale of Spice Assets

On December 8, 2015, we completed the sale of the Spice Assets to Harris Spice. Harris Spice acquired substantially all of our personal property used exclusively in connection with the ~~exit~~Spice Assets, including certain equipment; trademarks, tradenames and other intellectual property assets; contract rights under sales and purchase orders and certain other agreements; and a list of certain customers, other than our direct store delivery customers (“DSD Customers”), and assumed certain liabilities relating to the Spice Assets. We received $6.0 million in cash at closing, and we are eligible to receive an earnout amount of up to $5.0 million over a three year period based upon a percentage of certain institutional spice sales by Harris Spice following the closing. Gain from the earnout is recognized when earned and when realization is assured beyond a reasonable doubt. We recognized $0.4 million in earnout during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016, of which $0.3 million was included in gain from sale of Spice Assets in each of the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016.

We have followed the guidance in ASC 205-20, "Presentation of Financial Statements — Discontinued Operations," as updated by Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-08, "Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity" and have not presented the sale of the Spice Assets as discontinued operations. The sale of the Spice Assets does not represent a strategic shift for us and is not expected to have a major effect on our results of operations because we will continue to sell spice products to our DSD Customers.

In connection with the sale of the Spice Assets, we and Harris Spice entered into certain other agreements, including (1) a transitional co-packaging supply agreement pursuant to which we, as the contractor, will provide Harris Spice with certain transition services for a six-month transitional period following the closing of the asset sale, and (2) an exclusive supply agreement pursuant to which Harris Spice will supply to us, after the closing of the asset sale, spice and culinary products that were previously manufactured by us on negotiated pricing terms. While title to the Spice Assets transferred at closing, certain of the assets purchased by Harris Spice are expected to be transferred to Harris Spice's own manufacturing facilities, in phases, during the transitional period. After the closing of the asset sale, we will continue to sell certain spice and other culinary products purchased from Harris Spice under that supply agreement to our DSD Customers.

Assets Held for Sale

We consider properties to be assets held for sale when (1) management commits to a plan to sell the property; (2) it is unlikely that the disposal plan will be significantly modified or discontinued; (3) the property is available for immediate sale in its present condition; (4) actions required to complete the sale of the property have been initiated; (5) sale of the property is probable and we expect the completed sale will occur within one year; and (6) the property is actively being marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable given our estimate of current market value. We have listed for sale our Torrance facility and certain of our branch properties in Northern California. We are actively marketing these properties and have entered into purchase and sale agreements with prospective buyers. We expect these properties will be sold within one year. Accordingly, we have designated these properties as assets held for sale and recorded the carrying values of these properties in the aggregate amount of $9.3 million as "Assets held for sale" on our consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2016.

We have entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement for the sale of our Torrance facility for an aggregate sale price of $43.0 million. In connection with the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Buyer agreed to pay an aggregate

deposit of $2.0 million. The deposit may be retained by the Seller if the transaction does not close as a result of the Buyer's breach or default under the Purchase and Sale Agreement. The Purchase and Sale Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants of the parties, closing conditions, termination provisions and other provisions customary for similar transactions. The closing of the sale of the Torrance facility ~~consisting~~is estimated to take place on June 30, 2016, unless otherwise extended as set forth in the Purchase and Sale Agreement. Pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreement, we are entitled to lease back the Torrance facility for an initial term of ~~$14 million~~four months, subject to two one-month extensions at our option. The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in employee retention and separation benefits, $4 million in facility relocation costs and $7 million in other related costs. We may incur certain other non-cash asset impairment costs and pension-related costsits entirety by reference to the ~~amounts of which we have not yet been determined.~~

~~We expect to recognize approximately 35%~~full text of the ~~aggregate cash costs in fiscal 2015, including $4.6 million incurred in the first nine months of fiscal 2015,~~Purchase and Sale Agreement which is filed with the remainder expected to be recognized in fiscal 2016 and the first quarter of fiscal 2017. Subject to the finalization of the optimal size and build-out of the facility, we also expect to incur approximately $35 million to $40 million in new facility costs with an additional $20 million to $25 million in anticipated capital expenditures for machinery and equipment, furniture and fixtures, and related expenditures. The capital expenditures associated with the new facility are expected to be partially offset by the net proceeds from the planned sale of the Torrance facility.

~~Acquisition~~

On January 12, 2015, we completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Rae' Launo Corporation ("RLC") relating to its direct-store-delivery and in-room distribution business in the Southeastern United States (the "RLC Acquisition"). The purchase price was $1.5 million, consisting of $1.2 million in cash paid at closing and earnout payments of up to $0.1 million each year over a three-year period basedthis Quarterly Report on ~~achievement of certain milestones.~~

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include RLC's results since the date of acquisition. At closing, we received substantially all of the fixed assets of RLC. We did not assume any liabilities of RLC. Disclosure of the impact of the RLC Acquisition on a pro forma basisForm 10-Q as ~~if the results of RLC had been included from the beginning of the periods presented has not been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as the impact was not material.~~

~~The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired at the date of acquisition, based on the final purchase price allocation:~~

The excess of the purchase price over the total fair value of assets acquired is included as goodwill. Intangible assets consist of a non-compete agreement and customer relationships with a total net carrying value and accumulated amortization as of March 31, 2015 of $0.8 million and $50,000, respectively. Estimated aggregate amortization of acquired intangible assets, calculated on straight-line basis and based on the estimated fair values, for the remainder of fiscal 2015 and the following four fiscal years are $0.1 million, $0.2 million, $0.2 million, $0.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Credit Facility

On March 2, 2015, we, as Borrower, together with our wholly owned subsidiaries, Coffee Bean International, Inc., an Oregon corporation ("CBI"), FBC Finance Company, a California corporation, and Coffee Bean Holding Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation, as additional Loan Parties and as Guarantors, entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) and a related Pledge and Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Chase”), as Administrative Agent, and SunTrust Bank (“SunTrust”), as Syndication Agent (collectively, the "Lenders") (capitalized terms used below are defined in the Credit Agreement)~~. The Credit Agreement replaces our September 12, 2011 Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. that expired on March 2, 2015 (the "Wells Fargo Credit Facility")~~.

The Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured revolving credit facility (“Revolving Facility”) of up to $75.0 million (“Revolving Commitment”) consisting of Revolving Loans, Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans provided by the Lenders, with a sublimit on Letters of Credit outstanding at any time of $30.0 million and a sublimit for Swingline Loans of $15.0 million. Chase agreed to provide $45.0 million of the Revolving Commitment and SunTrust agreed to provide $30.0 million of the Revolving Commitment. The Credit Agreement also includes an accordion feature whereby we may increase the Revolving Commitment by an aggregate amount not to exceed $50.0 million, subject to certain conditions.

Availability requirements are met, and no event of default exists or has occurred and is continuing as of the date of any such payment and after giving effect thereto. The Credit Agreement also allows the Lenders to establish reserve requirements, which may reduce the amount of credit otherwise available to us, and provides for customary ~~Events~~events of ~~Default.~~default.

OnAt March 31, ~~2015,~~2016, we were eligible to borrow up to a total of ~~$66.5~~$59.2 million under the Revolving Facility. ~~As of~~At March 31, ~~2015,~~2016, we had outstanding borrowings of ~~$10.1~~$0.3 million, utilized ~~$11.0~~$11.5 million of the letters of credit sublimit, and had excess availability under the Revolving Facility of ~~$45.4~~$47.4 million. ~~The~~At March 31, 2016, the weighted average interest rate on our outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Facility was ~~2.4% at~~1.67%. At March 31, ~~2015. As of March 31, 2015,~~2016, we were in compliance with all of the restrictive covenants under the ~~Loan~~Credit Agreement.

~~As of May 1, 2015,~~

At April 30, 2016, we had estimated outstanding borrowings of ~~$0.1~~$0.3 million, utilized ~~$11.0~~$11.5 million of the letters of credit sublimit, and had excess availability under the Revolving Facility of ~~$55.5~~$47.4 million. ~~As of May 1, 2015,~~At April 30, 2016, the weighted average interest rate on our outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Facility was ~~1.6%~~1.67%.

Effective December 1, 2012, we entered into an interest rate swap transaction utilizing a notional amount of $10.0 million and a maturity date of March 1, 2015. We entered into the swap transaction to effectively fix the future interest rate during the applicable period on a portion of our borrowings under the Wells Fargo Credit Facility. The swap transaction was intended to manage our interest rate risk related to the Wells Fargo Credit Facility and required us to pay a fixed rate of 0.48% per annum in exchange for a variable interest rate based on 1-month USD LIBOR-BBA. We terminated the swap transaction on March 5, 2014 and had no interest rate swap transactions in place as of March 31, 2015.

We did not designate our interest rate swap as an accounting hedge. In the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014, we recorded in “Other, net” in our consolidated statements of operations a gain of $0 and a loss of $(5,000), respectively, for the change in fair value of our interest rate swap. No such gain or loss was recorded in the three and nine months ended ~~March 31, 2015~~.

Liquidity

We generally finance our operations through cash flows from operations and borrowings under our Revolving Facility described above. As of March 31, ~~2015~~,2016, we had ~~$9.4~~$13.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and ~~$24.0~~$24.8 million in short-term investments. At ~~March 31, 2015, as we had a~~We believe our Revolving Facility, to the extent available, in addition to our cash flows from operations and other liquid assets, the net ~~loss position in our coffee-related derivative margin accounts, $7.2 million~~proceeds from the sale of the ~~cash in these accounts was restricted.

We generate cash from operating activities primarily from cash collections related to the sale of our products. Net cash provided by operating activities was ~~$4.5~~$9.4 million ~~in the nine months ended~~ ~~March 31, 2015~~ ~~compared to net cash provided by operating activities of~~ ~~$33.9 million~~ in the nine months ended March 31, ~~2014. The lower~~2016 compared to $4.5 million in the nine months ended March 31, 2015. Net cash provided by operating activities in the nine months ended March 31, 2016 was primarily due to higher net income and a higher level of cash inflows from operating activities resulting primarily from proceeds from sales of short-term investments and higher accruals for incentive compensation payments to eligible employees, partially offset by higher cash outflows from purchase of short-term investments, and increases in derivative assets, accounts receivable and inventory balances. Net cash provided by operating activities in the nine months ended March 31, 2016 included the release of restriction on $1.0 million in cash held in coffee-related derivative margin accounts, as we had a net gain position in such accounts. Net cash provided by operating activities in the nine months ended March 31, 2015 was primarily due to lower net income and a higher level of cash outflows from operating activities primarily from payments of accounts payable balances and payroll expenses including a reversal of previously accrued ~~bonuses,~~incentive compensation for eligible employees, partially offset by ~~cash inflows from~~ a decrease in inventory balances. In the nine months ended March 31, 2014, net cash provided by operating activities resulted from a higher net income along with lower cash outflows for payments of accounts payable and payroll expenses and from a decrease in trade receivable balances.derivative assets. In addition, timing differences between the receipt or payment of cash and recognition of the related net (losses) gains ~~(losses)~~ from derivative instruments contributed to the differences in cash from operations in the reported periods. In the nine months ended March 31, ~~2015, non-cash net gains from derivative instruments contributed to the reduction in cash flows from operations. In the nine months ended March 31, 2014,~~2016, non-cash net losses from derivative instruments contributed to the increase in cash flows from operations. In the nine months ended March 31, 2015, non-cash net gains from derivative instruments contributed to the decrease in cash flows from operations.

Net cash used in investing activities was ~~$14.5~~$23.7 million ~~in the nine months ended~~ ~~March 31, 2015~~ ~~compared to~~ ~~$19.0 million~~ in the nine months ended March 31, ~~2014.~~2016 compared to $14.5 million in the nine months ended March 31, 2015. Net cash used in investing activities in the nine months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 included ~~$1.2~~$16.2 million for purchases of property, plant and equipment and $13.5 million in ~~payments~~purchases of construction-in-progress assets in connection with the ~~RLC Acquisition and~~construction of the New Facility as the deemed owner under the lease arrangement, offset by proceeds from sales of assets of $6.0 million, including $5.3 million in proceeds from the sale of the Spice Assets, compared to $13.6 million for purchases of property, plant and equipment offset by proceeds from sales of assets, ~~of $0.2 million, compared to $19.3 million for purchases of property, plant and equipment offset by proceeds from sales of property, plant and~~primarily equipment, of ~~$0.4~~$0.2 million in the nine months ended March 31, ~~2014.~~2015.

Net cash provided by financing activities in the nine months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 included $13.5 million in proceeds from lease financing in connection with the construction of the New Facility as the deemed owner under the lease arrangement, and net borrowings on our credit facility of $0.2 million, compared to net borrowings of ~~$9.5 million, compared to net repayments of~~ ~~$11.1 million~~ ~~in the nine months ended March 31, 2014. Proceeds from stock option exercises during the~~

~~nine months ended March 31, 2015 were $1.3 million compared to $1.4~~$9.5 million in the nine months ended March 31, ~~2014.~~2015. Proceeds from stock option exercises during the nine months ended March 31, 2016 were $1.6 million compared to $1.3 million in the nine months ended March 31, 2015. Net cash provided by financing activities in the nine months ended March 31, 2016 was partially offset by $2.7 million used to pay capital lease obligations and $8,000 used to pay financing cost obligations associated with the Revolving Facility. Net cash provided by financing activities in the nine months ended March 31, 2015 ~~included~~ was partially offset by $3.0 million used to pay capital lease obligations and $0.2 million used to pay financing cost obligations associated with the Revolving Facility.

Based on current assumptions and subject to continued implementation of the Corporate Relocation Plan as planned, we estimate that we will incur approximately $30.0 million in ~~financing~~cash costs consisting of $17.0 million in employee retention and separation benefits, $5.0 million in facility-related costs and ~~$0.1~~$8.0 million in ~~tax withholding payments~~other related costs. Since adoption of the Corporate Relocation Plan through March 31, 2016, we have recognized a total of $23.2 million of the estimated $30.0 million in aggregate cash costs consisting of an aggregate of $15.0 million in employee retention and separation benefits, $2.5 million in facility-related costs and $5.7 million in other related costs. The

remainder is expected to ~~net share settlement~~be recognized in the fourth quarter of ~~equity awards.~~fiscal 2016 and the first half of fiscal 2017. We may incur certain other non-cash asset impairment costs, postretirement benefit costs and pension-related costs.

In the nine months ended March 31, ~~2015,~~2016, we capitalized ~~$13.6~~$16.2 million in property, plant and equipment purchases, which included ~~$8.6~~$5.7 million in expenditures to replace normal wear and tear of coffee brewing equipment, ~~$3.7~~$7.1 million in expenditures for vehicles, and machinery and equipment, ~~$0.7~~$1.9 million in expenditures for machinery and equipment for the New Facility, $0.2 million in building and facility improvements and ~~$0.6~~$1.3 million in IT-related expenditures. Our ~~expected~~ capital expenditures unrelated to the Corporate Relocation Plan and the New Facility for the remainder of fiscal ~~2015~~2016 are expected to include expenditures to replace normal wear and tear of coffee brewing equipment, vehicles, machinery and ~~equpment~~equipment and IT-related expenditures.

~~Subject to~~Based on the ~~finalization~~final budget, which reflects substantial completion of ~~certain estimates,~~the principal design work for the New Facility, we estimate that wethe construction costs for the New Facility will ~~incur~~be approximately $25 million in cash costs in connection with the exit of the Torrance facility consisting of $14 million in employee retention and separation benefits, $4 million in facility relocation costs and $7 million in other related costs. We may incur certain other non-cash asset impairment costs and pension-related costs the amounts of which have not yet been determined.

We expect to recognize approximately 35% of the aggregate cash costs in fiscal 2015, including $4.6 million incurred in the first nine months of fiscal 2015, with the remainder expected to be recognized in fiscal 2016 and the first quarter of fiscal 2017. Subject to the finalization of the optimal size and build-out of the facility, we also expect to incur approximately $35$55.0 million to ~~$40~~$60.0 million ~~in new facility costs with~~plus an additional ~~$20~~$35.0 million to ~~$25~~$39.0 million in anticipated capital expenditures for machinery and equipment, furniture and fixtures, and related expenditures. ~~The capital expenditures associated with~~As compared to the ~~new~~preliminary budget, the final budget reflects, among other things, an increase in facility ~~are expected~~size and scope of building design, including a larger warehouse and a larger manufacturing footprint; additional infrastructure and automation to ~~be partially offset by~~support staged manufacturing and production line capacity allowing for future capacity growth; and certain other estimated landlord costs under the ~~net proceeds from the planned sale of our Torrance facility.~~

We ~~believe our Revolving Credit facility,~~recorded an asset related to the ~~extent available, cash flows from operations~~facility lease obligation included in property, plant and equipment of $19.2 million at March 31, 2016. The facility lease obligation included in "Other long-term liabilities" on our consolidated balance sheet was $19.2 million at March 31, 2016. There were no such amounts recorded at June 30, 2015. The Lease Agreement contains a purchase option exercisable at any time by us on or before ninety days prior to the scheduled completion date with an option purchase price equal to 103.5% of the total project cost as of the date of the option closing if the option closing occurs on or before July 17, 2016. The option purchase price will increase by 0.35% per month thereafter up to and including the date which is the earlier of (A) ninety days after the scheduled completion date and (B) December 31, 2016. Based upon, among other ~~liquid assets,~~things, the final budget which includes amounts in respect of construction costs, acquisition of the land upon which the New Facility will be constructed, Lessor and Company fees and expenses (such as legal fees), and preliminary contingency amounts of $2.7 million, we estimate that, if we were to exercise the ~~expected proceeds from~~purchase option under the Lease Agreement on or before July 17, 2016, the option purchase price in lieu of the lease payments would be $58.6 million payable in the year ending June 30, 2017. The decision of whether to exercise the option or not will depend upon, among other things, whether we can consummate the sale of ~~our~~the Torrance facility ~~collectively,~~at the negotiated price. If we do not exercise the purchase option by December 31, 2016, the obligation to pay annual base rent under the Lease Agreement will commence. Based on the final budget, we estimate that the annual base rent would be ~~sufficient to cover our capital expenditure requirements for~~approximately $4.2 million. The annual base rent will increase by 2% during each year of the ~~next 12 to 18 months, including the expected capital expenditures for the Corporate Relocation Plan.~~

Calculation of the annual base rent under the Lease Agreement shown in ~~$9.6~~the table is based on the final budget. If the Company were to exercise the purchase option under the Lease Agreement on or before July 17, 2016, the estimated option purchase price in lieu of the lease payments would be $58.6 million payable in ~~short-term derivative liabilities at~~the year ending June 30, 2017.

As of March 31, ~~2015,~~2016, we had committed to ~~purchasing~~purchase green coffee inventory totaling ~~$20.0~~$59.8 million under fixed-price contracts, ~~and~~ other inventory totaling ~~$9.0~~$5.3 million and equipment totaling $0.2 million under non-cancelable purchase orders.

Results of Operations

Net sales in the three months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 increased ~~$7.0~~$2.0 million,, or ~~5.6%~~1.5%, to ~~$132.5~~$134.5 million from ~~$125.5~~$132.5 million in the three months ended March 31, ~~2014.~~2015.

The increase in net sales in the three months ended March 31, 2016 was primarily due to an increase in net sales of our coffee (roast & ground) and spice products, resulting from higher volumes sold, and an increase in net sales of culinary and other beverages, resulting from pricing and product mix changes compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. The increase in net sales in the three months ended March 31, 2016 was partially offset by a decrease in net sales of coffee (frozen) and tea, primarily due to lower volumes sold. Net sales in the nine months ended March 31, 2016 decreased compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a decrease in net sales of coffee and tea products, partially offset by an increase in net sales of spice products and other beverages. Net sales in the three and nine months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016, included ~~$4.8~~$3.8 million and ~~$5.4~~$3.2 million ~~respectively,~~ in price ~~increases~~decreases, respectively, to customers utilizing commodity-based pricing arrangements, where the changes in the green coffee commodity costs are passed on to the customer.

Cost of goods sold in the nine months ended March 31, ~~2015 increased $17.7~~2016 decreased $(11.3) million, or ~~7.2%~~4.3%, to $254.2 million, or 62.0% of net sales, from $265.5 million, or 64.2% ~~of net sales, from $247.8 million, or 62.2%~~ of net sales, in the nine months ended March 31, ~~2014.~~2015. The increase in cost of goods sold in the nine months ended March 31, 2015 was primarily due to a 33% increase in the average cost of green coffee purchased. In addition, we recorded the cost of the remainder of our green coffee shipments that we received in the nine months ended March 31, 2015, for which the corresponding large hedging gains were recognized in our prior fiscal year.

~~We anticipate our inventory levels at June 30, 2015 will~~ decrease ~~from June 30, 2014 levels, and, therefore, recorded $0.7 million and $3.2 million in expected beneficial effect of LIFO inventory liquidation~~ in cost of goods sold in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016 was primarily due to lower coffee commodity costs compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, increased supply chain efficiencies realized primarily through the consolidation of our former Torrance coffee production volumes into our Houston manufacturing facility, and other supply chain improvements.

Because we anticipate that our inventory levels at June 30, 2016 will decrease from June 30, 2015 ~~respectively. Cost~~levels , we recorded $0.8 million and $1.1 million, respectively, in expected beneficial effect of the liquidation of LIFO inventory quantities in cost of goods sold for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016 which increased net income in the three and nine months ended March 31, ~~2014 did not include any~~2016 by $0.8 million and $1.1 million, respectively. In the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015, we recorded $0.7 million and $3.2 million, respectively, in expected beneficial effect of ~~the liquidation of~~ LIFO inventory ~~quantities.~~liquidation in cost of goods sold which increased net income for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015 by $0.7 million and $3.2 million, respectively.

Gross profit in the three months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 ~~decreased $(1.5)~~increased $6.0 million, or ~~(3.1)%~~12.9%, to ~~$46.6~~$52.6 million from ~~$48.1~~$46.6 million in the three months ended March 31, ~~2014,~~2015, due to the increase in net sales and the decrease in cost of goods sold. Gross margin increased to 39.1% in the three months ended March 31, 2016 from 35.1% in the three months ended March 31, 2015, primarily due to ~~the 30% increase~~lower coffee commodity costs compared to same period in the ~~average cost~~prior fiscal year and supply chain efficiencies realized primarily through the consolidation of ~~green~~our former Torrance coffee ~~purchased,~~production volumes into our Houston manufacturing facility. Gross profit in the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 included the beneficial effect of the liquidation of LIFO inventory quantities in the amount of $0.8 million and $0.7 million, respectively. Gross profit in the nine months ended March 31, 2016 increased $8.2 million, or 5.6%, to $156.0 million from $147.8 million in the nine months ended March 31, 2015, primarily due to lower coffee commodity costs as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year and supply chain efficiencies realized primarily through the consolidation of our former Torrance coffee production volumes into our Houston manufacturing facility, partially offset by the ~~increase~~decrease in net sales. Gross profit in the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, ~~decreased $(2.6)~~respectively, included the beneficial effect of the liquidation of LIFO inventory quantities in the amount of $1.1 million ~~or (1.7)%,~~and $3.2 million. Gross margin increased to ~~$147.8 million from $150.4 million~~38.0% in the nine months ended March 31, ~~2014, primarily due to the 33% increase~~2016 from 35.8% in the ~~average cost of green coffee purchased, partially offset by the increase in net sales. Gross margin decreased to 35.1% and 35.8%, respectively, in the three and~~ nine months ended March 31, 2015, ~~from 38.3% and 37.8%, respectively, in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014,~~ primarily due to lower coffee commodity costs compared to the ~~higher average cost~~same period in the prior fiscal year and supply chain efficiencies realized primarily through the consolidation of ~~green~~our former Torrance coffee ~~purchased.~~production volumes into our Houston manufacturing facility.

In the three months ended March 31, ~~2015~~,2016, operating expenses ~~decreased $(2.1)~~increased $4.3 million to ~~$48.0~~$52.3 million, or ~~36.2%~~38.9% of net sales, as compared to ~~$50.1~~$48.0 million, or ~~39.9%~~36.2% of net sales, in the three months ended March 31, ~~2014.~~2015. Operating expenses in the three months ended March 31, ~~2015~~ ~~decreased~~2016 increased primarily due to ~~a $(4.9)~~$4.4 million ~~decrease in selling expenses~~ and ~~a $(0.9)~~$0.8 million ~~decrease~~increases in general and administrative expenses ~~as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014,~~and selling expenses, respectively, partially offset by ~~$3.6~~a $(0.4) million decrease in restructuring and other transition expenses associated with the Corporate Relocation ~~Plan.~~Plan, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015. The ~~decrease~~increase in general and administrative expenses in the three months ended March

31, 2016 was primarily due to higher accrual for incentive compensation to eligible employees as compared to a reduction in accrual for incentive compensation to eligible employees in the prior year period and an increase in retiree medical costs. The increase in selling expenses in the three months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 was primarily due to ~~a decrease in bonus expense and fuel expense~~higher accrual for incentive compensation to eligible employees as compared to ~~the same period~~a reduction in accrual for incentive compensation to eligible employees in the prior ~~fiscal year. The decrease in the general~~year period and ~~administrative~~higher costs associated with a minor re-alignment of our DSD organization, partially offset by lower fuel, freight and depreciation expense. Operating expenses in the three months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 also reflected $4,000 in net gains from sales of assets, primarily equipment, as compared to $0.1 million in net losses from sales of assets, primarily equipment, in the three months ended March 31, 2015.

In the nine months ended March 31, 2016, operating expenses increased $7.8 million to $150.9 million, or 36.8% of net sales, as compared to $143.1 million, or 34.6% of net sales, in the nine months ended March 31, 2015. Operating expenses in the nine months ended March 31, 2016 increased primarily due to a $9.3 million increase in restructuring and other transition expenses associated with the Corporate Relocation Plan, and a $7.4 million increase in general and administrative expenses, partially offset by net gains from sales of assets of $5.6 million including the net gain from the sale of the Spice Assets of $5.4 million, and a decrease in selling expenses of $3.0 million as compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2015. The increase in general and administrative expenses in the nine months ended March 31, 2016 was primarily due to higher accrual for incentive compensation to eligible employees as compared to a reduction in accrual for incentive compensation to eligible employees in the prior year period and an increase in employee and retiree medical costs. The decrease in ~~bonus~~selling expenses in the nine months ended March 31, 2016 was primarily due to lower fuel and freight expenses and lower depreciation expense, partially offset by ~~an increase in employee-related~~higher accrual for incentive compensation to eligible employees and expenses due to the minor re-alignment of our DSD operations, as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year.

~~In the nine months ended~~ ~~March 31, 2015~~, operating expenses decreased $(0.7) million to $143.1 million, or 34.6% of net sales, as compared to $143.8 million, or 36.1% of net sales, in the nine months ended March 31, 2014. Operating expenses in the nine months ended ~~March 31, 2015~~ decreased primarily due to a $(1.8) million decrease in selling expenses and a $(3.8) million decrease in general and administrative expenses, as compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2014, partially offset by $4.6 million in restructuring and other transition expenses associated with the Corporate Relocation Plan. The decrease in selling expenses in the nine months ended March 31, 2015 was primarily due

to a decrease in bonus expense and fuel expense, as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. The decrease in general and administrative expenses in the nine months ended March 31, 2015 was primarily due to the absence of expenses related to the restatement of certain prior period financial statements, the absence of intangible assets amortization expense and decrease in bonus expense, partially offset by an increase in employee-related expenses as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year.

~~Loss~~Income from operations in the three months ended March 31, ~~2015~~ ~~decreased~~2016 was $0.3 million as compared to ~~$(1.4) million~~loss from ~~$(2.1)~~operations of $(1.4) million in the three months ended March 31, ~~2014,~~2015, primarily due to ~~lower operating~~the increase in gross profit, partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses and selling expenses.

Total other income in the three months ended March 31, 2016 was $0.9 million as compared to total other expense of $(1.4) million in the three months ended March 31, 2015. Total other income in the three months ended March 31, 2016 was primarily due to lower ~~gross profit.~~

~~Total~~interest expense of $0.1 million and $0.4 million in miscellaneous income, as compared to total other expense in the three months ended March 31, 2015 which included $0.5 million in interest expense and $(1.8) million in net losses on coffee-related derivative instruments. Total other income in the nine months ended March 31, 2016 was ~~$(1.4)~~$0.9 million as compared to total other ~~income~~expense of $(1.6) million in the ~~three months ended March 31, 2014 of $4.8 million. Total other expense in the three~~nine months ended March 31, 2015, included net losses on coffee-related derivative instruments of $(1.8) million, whereas, total other income in the three months ended March 31, 2014 included $3.7 million in net gains on coffee-related derivative instruments. Total otherprimarily due to lower interest expense in the nine months ended March 31, ~~2015 was $(1.6) million as compared to total other income of $3.3 million in the nine months ended March 31, 2014. Total other expense in the nine months ended March 31, 2015 included~~2016 and $(2.7) million in net losses on coffee-related derivative instruments ~~as compared to $2.6~~in the nine months ended March 31, 2015.

Net gains on coffee-related derivative instruments recorded in "Other, net" in the three months ended March 31, 2016 included $0.3 million in net gains on coffee-related derivative instruments ~~during the same period~~not designated as accounting hedges and $(0.1) million in ~~the prior fiscal year.~~

net losses on coffee-related derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges due to ineffectiveness. Net losses on coffee-related derivative instruments recorded in "Other, net" in the three months ended March 31, 2015 included $(1.7) million in net losses on coffee-related derivative instruments not designated as accounting hedges and $(0.1) million in net losses on coffee-related derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges due to ineffectiveness. Net losses on coffee-related derivative instruments recorded in "Other, net" in the nine months ended March 31, 2016 included $0.1 million in net gains on coffee-related derivative instruments not designated as accounting hedges and $(0.6) million in net losses on coffee-related derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges due to ineffectiveness. Net losses on coffee-related derivative instruments recorded in "Other, net" in the nine months ended March 31, 2015 included $(2.4) million in net losses on coffee-related derivative instruments not designated as accounting hedges and $(0.3) million in net losses on coffee-related derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges due to ineffectiveness. ~~Net gains on coffee-related derivative instruments recorded in "Other, net" in~~

In the three ~~and nine~~ months ended March 31, ~~2014 included $3.5 million~~2016 and $3.0 million, respectively, in net gains on coffee-related derivative instruments not designated as accounting hedges, and $0.2 million in gains and $(0.4) million in losses, respectively, on coffee-related derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges due to ineffectiveness.

~~In the three and nine months ended~~ March 31, 2015, we recorded income tax expense of $43,000 and income tax benefit of $(0.2) million, ~~and income tax expense of $0.2 million, respectively, compared to income tax expense of $0.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively, in~~respectively. In the ~~three and~~ nine months ended March 31, ~~2014.~~2016 and 2015, we recorded income tax expense of $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

As of June 30, ~~2014,~~2015, our valuation allowance was ~~$72.6~~$84.9 million. In the three months ended March 31, ~~2015,~~2016, we decreased our valuation allowance by ~~$0.5~~$0.6 million to ~~$69.9~~$82.5 million. We will continue to monitor ~~our cumulative three-year loss position together with~~ all ~~other~~ available evidence, both positive and negative, in determining whether it is more likely than not that we will realize our net deferred tax assets.

As a result of the foregoing factors, net ~~loss~~income in the three months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 was$1.2 million, or $0.07 per diluted common share, compared to net loss of $(2.6) million, or $(0.16) per common share, ~~compared to net income of~~ ~~$2.5 million, or~~ ~~$0.16~~ ~~per diluted common share,~~ in the three months ended March 31, ~~2014.~~2015. Net income in the nine months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 was ~~$2.8~~$5.7 million,, or ~~$0.17~~$0.34 per diluted common share, compared to ~~$9.0~~net income of $2.8 million, or ~~$0.57~~$0.17 per diluted common share, in the nine months ended March 31, ~~2014.~~2015.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to net income ~~(loss)~~ determined in accordance with GAAP, we use ~~certain~~the following non-GAAP financial measures ~~including “Adjusted EBITDA,” "Adjusted EBITDA Margin," "Net~~in assessing our operating performance:

“Non-GAAP net income” is defined as net income excluding ~~restructuring and other transition expenses" and "Net income excluding~~ the impact of:

restructuring and other transition expenses, net of tax; and

net gains and losses from sales of assets, net of tax.

“Non-GAAP net income per diluted common ~~share—diluted" in assessing our operating performance.~~ share” is defined as Non-GAAP net income divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, inclusive of the dilutive effect of common equivalent shares outstanding during the period.

“Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as net income excluding the impact of:

income taxes;

interest expense;

depreciation and amortization expense;

ESOP and share-based compensation expense;

non-cash impairment losses;

non-cash pension withdrawal expense;

other similar non-cash expenses;

restructuring and other transition expenses; and

net gains and losses from sales of assets.

“Adjusted EBITDA Margin” is defined as Adjusted EBITDA expressed as a percentage of net sales.

Restructuring and other transition expenses are expenses that are directly attributable to the Corporate Relocation Plan, consisting primarily of employee retention and separation benefits, facility-related costs and other related costs such as travel, legal, consulting and other professional services.

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide a useful measure of the Company’s operating results, a meaningful comparison with historical results and with the results of other companies, and insight into the Company's ongoing operating performance. Further, management utilizes these measures, in addition to GAAP measures, when evaluating and comparing the Company's operating performance against internal financial forecasts and budgets.

~~We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as~~ In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, we modified previously reported non-GAAP financial measures to exclude net ~~income (loss) excluding the impact~~gains and losses on sales of income taxes, interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, ESOP and share-based compensation expense, non-cash impairment losses, non-cash pension withdrawal expense, other similar non-cash expenses and, beginning in the quarter ended December 31, 2014, restructuring and other transition expenses associated with the Corporate Relocation Plan. Restructuring and other transition expenses are expenses that are directly attributable to the Corporate Relocation Plan, consisting primarily of

employee retention and separation benefits, facility relocation costs and other related costs such as travel, legal, consulting and other professional services. We have excluded these restructuring and other transition expensesassets because we believe ~~they~~these gains and losses are not reflective of our ongoing operating results. ~~We define “Adjusted EBITDA Margin” as Adjusted EBITDA expressed as~~As a ~~percentage of net sales. We define~~result, we began referring to the measures previously titled “Net income excluding restructuring and other transition expenses” ~~as net income excluding restructuring~~ and ~~other transition expenses associated with the Corporate Relocation Plan, net of tax. We define~~ “Net income excluding restructuring and other transition expenses per common ~~share—diluted”~~share-diluted” as “Non-GAAP net income” and “Non-GAAP net income ~~excluding restructuring~~per diluted common share.” In addition, we redefined “Adjusted EBITDA” to also exclude net gains and ~~other transition expenses divided by~~losses from sales of assets. The historical presentation of these measures has been recast to conform to the ~~weighted-average number of~~revised definitions and the current year presentation. Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP net income per diluted common ~~shares outstanding, inclusive of the dilutive effect of common equivalent shares outstanding during the period.~~

share, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, ~~Net income excluding restructuring and other transition expenses and Net income excluding restructuring and other transition expenses per common share—diluted,~~ as defined by us, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We do not intend for non-GAAP financial measures to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Item 3.	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to market value risk arising from changes in interest rates on our securities portfolio. Our portfolio of preferred securities has sometimes included investments in derivatives that provide a natural economic hedge of interest rate risk. We review the interest rate sensitivity of these securities and may enter into “short positions” in futures contracts on U.S. Treasury securities or hold put options on such futures contracts to reduce the impact of certain interest rate changes. Specifically, we attempt to manage the risk arising from changes in the general level of interest rates. We do not transact in

futures contracts or put options for speculative purposes. The number and type of futures and options contracts entered into depends on, among other items, the specific maturity and issuer redemption provisions for each preferred stock held, the slope of the U.S. Treasury yield curve, the expected volatility of U.S. Treasury yields, and the costs of using futures and/or options.

The following table demonstrates the impact of varying interest rate changes based on our preferred securities holdings and market yield and price relationships at March 31, ~~2015.~~2016. This table is predicated on an “instantaneous” change in the general level of interest rates and assumes predictable relationships between the prices of our preferred securities holdings and the yields on U.S. Treasury securities. At March 31, ~~2015,~~2016, we had no futures contracts or put options with respect to our preferred securities portfolio designated as interest rate risk hedges.

The Credit Agreement for our Revolving Facility provides for interest rates based on Average Historical Excess Availability levels with a range of PRIME - 0.25% to PRIME + 0.50% or Adjusted LIBO Rate + 1.25% to Adjusted LIBO Rate + 2.00%.

~~As of~~At March 31, ~~2015,~~2016, we had outstanding borrowings of ~~$10.1~~$0.3 million, utilized ~~$11.0~~$11.5 million of the letters of credit sublimit, and had excess availability under the Revolving Facility of ~~$45.4~~$47.4 million. ~~The~~At March 31, 2016, the weighted average interest rate on ~~our~~the Company's outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Facility ~~at March 31, 2015~~ was ~~2.4%~~1.67%.

Effective December 1, 2012, we entered into an interest rate swap transaction utilizing a notional amount of $10.0 million and a maturity date of March 1, 2015. We entered into the swap transaction to effectively fix the future interest rate during the applicable period on a portion of our borrowings under the Wells Fargo Credit Facility. We terminated the swap transaction on March 5, 2014 and had no interest rate swap transactions in place as of March 31, 2015. We did not designate our interest rate swap as an accounting hedge and recorded the gain or loss from changes in fair value of the interest rate swap in "Other, net" in our consolidated statements of operations. In the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014, we recorded a gain of $0 and a loss of $(5,000), respectively, for the change in fair value of our interest rate swap. No such gain or loss was recorded in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015.

Commodity Price Risk

We are exposed to commodity price risk arising from changes in the market price of green coffee. We value green coffee inventory on the LIFO basis. In the normal course of business we hold a large green coffee inventory and enter into forward commodity purchase agreements with suppliers. We are subject to price risk resulting from the volatility of green coffee prices. Due to competition and market conditions, volatile price increases cannot always be passed on to our customers.

We purchase ~~exchange traded~~over-the-counter coffee derivative instruments to enable us to lock in the price of green coffee commodity ~~purchases, typically three months in advance of the delivery date.~~purchases. These derivative instruments also may be entered into at the direction of the customer under commodity-based pricing arrangements to effectively lock in the purchase price of green coffee under such customer arrangements, in certain cases up ~~to 18~~ to 24 months or longer in the future. We account for certain coffee-related derivative instruments as accounting hedges in order to minimize the volatility created in our quarterly results from utilizing these derivative contracts and to improve comparability between reporting periods.

When we designate coffee-related derivative instruments as cash flow hedges, we formally document the hedging instruments and hedged items, and measure at each balance sheet date the effectiveness of our hedges. The effective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative is reported as AOCI and subsequently reclassified into cost of goods sold in the period or periods when the hedged transaction affects earnings. In the three months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 and ~~2014,~~2015, we reclassified

~~$(0.4)~~ $2.7 million and ~~$(0.8)~~$0.4 million in net losses, respectively, into cost of goods sold from AOCI. In the nine months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 and ~~2014,~~2015, we reclassified $(11.5) million and $9.5 million in net gains, ~~and $(6.8) million in net losses,~~ respectively, into cost of goods sold from

AOCI. Any ineffective portion of the derivative's change in fair value is recognized currently in “Other, net.” Gains or losses deferred in AOCI associated with terminated derivative instruments, derivative instruments that cease to be highly effective hedges, derivative instruments for which the forecasted transaction is reasonably possible but no longer probable of occurring, and cash flow hedges that have been otherwise discontinued remain in AOCI until the hedged item affects earnings. If it becomes probable that the forecasted transaction designated as the hedged item in a cash flow hedge will not occur, we recognize any gain or loss deferred in AOCI in “Other, net” at that time. In each of the three months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 and ~~2014,~~2015, we recognized in "Other, net" $(0.1) million in net losses ~~and $0.2 million in net gains~~ on coffee-related derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges due to ineffectiveness. In the nine months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 and ~~2014,~~2015, we recognized in "Other, net" ~~$(0.3)~~$(0.6) million and ~~$(0.4)~~$(0.3) million, respectively, in net losses on coffee-related derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges due to ineffectiveness.

For derivative instruments that are not designated in a hedging relationship, and for which the normal purchases and normal sales exception has not been elected, the changes in fair value are reported in “Other, net.” In the three months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 and ~~2014,~~2015, we recorded in "Other, net" net ~~losses~~gains of ~~$(1.7)~~$0.3 million and net ~~gains~~losses of ~~$3.5~~$(1.7) million, respectively, on coffee-related derivative instruments not designated as accounting hedges. In the nine months ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 and ~~2014,~~2015, we recorded in "Other, net" $0.1 million in net ~~losses of~~gains and $(2.4) million ~~and~~in net ~~gains of $3.0 million,~~losses, respectively, on coffee-related derivative instruments not designated as accounting hedges.

Item 4.	Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

As of March 31, ~~2015,~~2016, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management has determined that there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act) during our fiscal quarter ended March 31, ~~2015~~2016 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.



PART II - OTHER INFORMATION



Item ~~1A.~~1.	~~Risk Factors~~Legal Proceedings

Council for Education and Research on Toxics (“CERT”) v. Brad Berry Company Ltd., et al., Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles

On August 31, 2012, CERT filed an amendment to a private enforcement action adding a number of companies as defendants, including CBI, which sell coffee in California. The ~~information~~suit alleges that the defendants have failed to issue clear and reasonable warnings in accordance with Proposition 65 that the coffee they produce, distribute and sell contains acrylamide. This lawsuit was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court (the “Court”). CERT has demanded that the alleged violators remove acrylamide from their coffee or provide Proposition 65 warnings on their products and pay $2,500 per day for each and every violation while they are in violation of Proposition 65.

Acrylamide is produced naturally in connection with the heating of many foods, especially starchy foods, and is believed to be caused by the Maillard reaction, though it has also been found in unheated foods such as olives. With respect to coffee, acrylamide is produced when coffee beans are heated during the roasting process-it is the roasting itself that produces the acrylamide. While there has been a significant amount of research concerning proposals for treatments and other processes aimed at reducing acrylamide content of different types of foods, to our knowledge there is currently no known strategy for reducing acrylamide in coffee without negatively impacting the sensorial properties of the product.

The Company has joined a Joint Defense Group and, along with the other co-defendants, has answered the complaint, denying, generally, the allegations of the complaint, including the claimed violation of Proposition 65 and further denying CERT’s right to any relief or damages, including the right to require a warning on products. The Joint Defense Group contends that based on proper scientific analysis and proper application of the standards set forth in ~~this report should be read in conjunction with~~Proposition 65, exposures to acrylamide from the coffee products pose no significant risk ~~factor set forth below~~of cancer and, thus, these exposures are exempt from Proposition 65’s warning requirement.

To date, the pleadings stage of the case has been completed. The Court has phased trial so that the “no significant risk level” defense, the First Amendment defense, and the ~~risk factors discussed~~preemption defense will be tried first. Fact discovery and expert discovery on these “Phase 1” defenses have been completed, and the parties filed trial briefs. Trial commenced on September 8, 2014, and testimony completed on November 4, 2014, for the three Phase 1 defenses. Following two continuances, the Court heard on April 9, 2015 final arguments on the Phase 1 issues. On July 25, 2015, the Court issued its Proposed Statement of Decision with respect to Phase 1 defenses against the defendants, which was confirmed, on September 2, 2015 in ~~Part I, Item 1A~~the Final Statement of Decision. The Court has stated that all defendants would be included in “Phase 2,” though this remains unresolved, including the extent of the ~~2014 10-K.~~

WE EXPECT TO INCUR SIGNIFICANT COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE EXIT FROM OUR TORRANCE, CALIFORNIA FACILITY AND RELOCATION TO A NEW FACILITY. THE CORPORATE RELOCATION PLAN MAY BE UNSUCCESSFUL OR LESS SUCCESSFUL THAN WE PRESENTLY ANTICIPATE AND MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS, OPERATING RESULTS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

involvement or participation in discovery. Following permission from the Court, on October 14, 2015 the Joint Defense Group filed a writ petition for an interlocutory appeal. In late December 2015, plaintiff’s counsel served letters proposing a new plan to file the anticipated motion for summary adjudication and a new set of discovery on all defendants. On January 14, 2016, the Court of Appeals denied the Joint Defense Group’s writ petition thereby denying the interlocutory appeal. On February ~~5, 2015, we announced~~16, 2016, CERT filed a motion for summary adjudication arguing that based upon facts that had been stipulated by defendants, CERT had proven its prima facie case and all that remains is a determination of whether any affirmative defenses are available to defendants. On March 16, 2016, the ~~Corporate Relocation Plan~~Court reinstated the stay on discovery for all defendant parties except for the four largest defendants, so the Company is not currently obligated to ~~close our Torrance, California facility and relocate these operations to~~participate in discovery. Following a ~~new manufacturing, distribution and corporate headquarters facility, which~~hearing on April 20, 2016, the Court granted CERT’s motion for summary adjudication on its prima facie case. CERT is expected to ~~affect approximately 350 positions as~~file its motion for summary adjudication of affirmatives defenses, and the deadline for defendants’ opposition will be set at a ~~result~~June 6, 2016 hearing. At this time, the Company is not able to predict the probability of the ~~Torrance facility closure. We cannot guarantee~~outcome or estimate of loss, if any, related to this matter.

Steve Hernandez vs. Farmer Bros. Co. and Monica Zuno vs. Farmer Bros. Co., Superior Court of State of California, County of Los Angeles

On July 24, 2015, former Company employee Hernandez filed a putative class action complaint for damages alleging a single cause of action for unfair competition under the California Business & Professions Code. The claim purports to seek disgorgement of profits for alleged violations of various provisions of the California Labor Code relating to: failing to pay overtime, failing to provide meal breaks, failing to pay minimum wage, failing to pay wages timely during employment and

upon termination, failing to provide accurate and complete wage statements, and failing to reimburse business-related expenses. Hernandez’s complaint seeks restitution in an unspecified amount and injunctive relief, in addition to attorneys’ fees and expenses. Hernandez alleges that ~~we will be successful in implementing~~ the ~~Corporate Relocation Plan in~~putative class is all “current and former hourly-paid or non-exempt individuals” for the four (4) years preceding the filing of the complaint through final judgment, and Hernandez also purports to reserve the right to establish sub-classes as appropriate. On November 12, 2015, a ~~timely manner or at all, or that such efforts will not interfere with our ability~~separate putative class representative, Monica Zuno, filed claim under the same class action; the Court has related this case to ~~achieve our business objectives. For example, our restructuring activities could disrupt our ongoing operations, which could adversely affect our ability~~the Hernandez case. On November 17, 2015, the unified case was assigned to ~~deliver products both~~a judge, and this judge ordered the stay on discovery to remain intact until after a ~~timely basis~~decision on the Company’s demurrer action. The plaintiff filed an Opposition to the Demurrer and, in accordance with customer requirements, the effect of which could delay revenues or result in lost business opportunities. Moreover, reductions in force can be difficult to manage, may cause concerns from current and potential customers, suppliers and other third parties with whom we do business which may cause them to delay or curtail doing business with us, may increase the likelihood of key employees leavingresponse, on January 5, 2016, the Company ~~or make it more difficult~~filed a reply to ~~recruit new employees, and may have an adverse impact on our business. Restructuring efforts have caused and will continue~~this Opposition to ~~cause us to incur significant expenses and other costs, including potential impairment losses on our long-lived assets, write-offs of inventory, losses~~the Demurrer. On February 2, 2016, the Court held a hearing on the ~~disposal of fixed assets~~demurrer. and ~~certain pension-related costs.

The Court has lifted the stay on discovery and has set August 12, 2016 for a status conference.

If we fail to achieve our objectives~~predict the probability of the ~~Corporate Relocation Plan, further restructuring may be necessary.
