2.	~~Basis~~ Summary of ~~Presentation~~Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, without audit, with the exception of the ~~July 1, 2017~~June 29, 2019 consolidated balance sheet, which was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the ~~Company’s Annual Report on~~ Form~~10-K~~ ~~for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2017 (the “Form10-K”).~~ 10-K. The financial statements include consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity, and consolidated statements of cash flows. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments, except as otherwise disclosed, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for all periods presented have been made.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ~~(GAAP)~~(“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates used by management are related to the accounting for the allowance for doubtful accounts, reserve for inventories, impairment testing of goodwill and other intangible assets, acquisition accounting, reserves for claims and recoveries under insurance programs, vendor rebates and other promotional incentives, bonus

accruals, depreciation, amortization, determination of useful lives of tangible and intangible assets, leases, and income taxes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in theForm 10-K. Certain footnote disclosures included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to applicable rules and regulations for interim financial statements.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties as a result of COVID-19. The unprecedented impact of COVID-19 has grown throughout the world, including in the United States, and governmental authorities have implemented numerous measures attempting to contain and mitigate the effects of the virus, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter in place orders, shutdowns and social distancing requirements. These measures have adversely affected and may further adversely affect the Company’s workforce and operations and the operations of its customers and suppliers. The Company’s distribution centers have experienced instances of reduced operations, including reduced operating hours, and in markets where governments have imposed restrictions on travel outside of the home, or where customers are practicing social distancing, many of our customers, including restaurants, schools, hotels, movie theaters, and business and industry locations, have reduced or discontinued operations, which has and is expected to continue to adversely affect demand in the foodservice industry, including demand for our products and services.

We expect that COVID-19 will have a material adverse impact on our future results of operations and liquidity. However, the extent to which COVID-19 will affect our financial position, liquidity, and results of operations is uncertain.

3.	Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

~~Recently~~

~~Adopted Accounting Pronouncements~~

In ~~July 2015,~~February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ~~(FASB)~~(“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update ~~(ASU)2015-11,~~

~~Inventory~~(“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic ~~330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory~~. This ASU requires an entity to measure most inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. When evidence exists that the net realizable value of inventory is lower than its cost, the difference shall be recognized as a loss in earnings in the period in which it occurs. The ASU is effective for public companies prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this ASU as of the beginning of fiscal 2018 and concluded that it does not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

~~In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-15,~~~~Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments~~. This ASU addresses the classification of certain specific cash flow issues including debt prepayment or extinguishment costs, settlement of certain debt instruments, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of certain insurance claims and distributions received from equity method investees. This ASU is

effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period using the retrospective transition method. The Company elected to early adopt ASU~~2016-15~~ as of the beginning of fiscal 2018. Based on our review of the ASU, the Company concluded that it has historically classified the specified cash receipts and cash payments in accordance with the clarified guidance. This ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

~~In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-18,~~~~Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash~~. This ASU requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the~~beginning-of-period~~ ~~andend-of-period~~ total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The ASU requires a retrospective transition method for each period presented. The Company elected to early adopt ASU~~2016-18~~ ~~as of the beginning of fiscal 2018. The statements of cash flows for the six months ended December 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 include restricted cash with cash when reconciling thebeginning-of-period~~ ~~andend-of-period~~ ~~total amounts.~~

~~In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU2017-04,~~ ~~Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment~~. This ASU eliminates Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which is performed by estimating the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of the reporting unit to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill. Instead, an entity will record a goodwill impairment charge based on the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying value over its estimated fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. This ASU is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and should be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company elected to early adopt~~ASU 2017-04~~ ~~as of the beginning of fiscal 2018. Upon adoption of the ASU, the Company concluded that it did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. The Company will apply ASU2017-04~~ ~~on a prospective basis when analyzing goodwill impairment.~~

~~Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted~~

~~In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU2014-09,~~~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)~~842) and has issued subsequent amendments to this guidance. This Update is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue that represents the transfer of promised goods or services to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.

Topic 606 is effective for public entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Companies may either use a full retrospective or modified retrospective approach for adoption of Topic 606. The Company will adopt the guidance in fiscal 2019 and currently plans to implement the new standard using the modified retrospective approach. However, our method is subject to change as we finalize our adoption approach for the new standard. The Company has conducted a preliminary assessment and anticipates that the timing of recognition of revenue to be substantially unchanged under the new standard. The amended guidance also requires additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures, which the Company believes will be significant to the consolidated financial statements. The Company is in the process of designing and implementing relevant controls related to adoption of the new standard.

~~In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-02,~~~~Leases (Topic 842)~~. The ASU is a comprehensive new lease accounting model that requires companies to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. ~~For public entities, the ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years.~~ The Company ~~will adopt~~adopted this new standard as of June 30, 2019, the ~~guidance in fiscal 2020. Companies are required to recognize~~effective and ~~measure leases at~~initial application date, using the ~~beginning of the earliest period presented in its financial statements using a~~ modified retrospective approach. Comparative periods presented in the consolidated financial statements prior to June 30, 2019 continue to be presented under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 840. The Company iselected the package of practical expedients, which allowed the Company not to reassess whether arrangements contain leases, the classification of leases, and the capitalization of initial direct costs. The Company also made a policy election to exclude leases with an initial term of 12 months or less from the consolidated balance sheet, and the Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company’s June 30, 2019 adoption of the new standard resulted in the ~~process~~recognition of ~~evaluating~~operating lease liabilities totaling $423.8 million, based upon the ~~impact~~present value of ~~this ASU on its future financial statements~~the remaining minimum rental payments using discount rates as of the adoption date, with $82.1 million within Operating lease liabilities - current and ~~believes adoption~~$341.7 million within Operating lease liabilities, excluding current installments. In addition, we recorded corresponding Operating lease right-of-use assets totaling $423.0 million based upon the operating lease liabilities adjusted for deferred rent of ~~this~~$11.0 million, favorable lease intangible assets of $5.3 million and prepaid rent and other adjustments of $4.9 million. The new standard ~~will~~did not have a ~~significant~~material impact on ~~our~~the consolidated ~~financial statements. Information about our undiscounted future lease payments~~statements of operations and the ~~timing~~consolidated statement of ~~those payments is in~~cash flows. See Note ~~12.~~8. Leases ~~in our Form10-K.~~for further discussion of the Company’s leasing arrangements and required ASC 842 disclosures.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-13,Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial ~~Instruments.~~Instruments and has issued subsequent amendments to this guidance. The pronouncement changes the impairment model for most financial assets and will require the use of an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost. Under this model, entities will be required to estimate the lifetime expected credit loss on such instruments and record an allowance to offset the amortized cost basis of the financial asset, resulting in a net presentation of the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. ~~Early adoption is permitted.~~The Company plans to adopt the new standard in fiscal 2021. Companies are required to apply the standard using a modified retrospective approach, with a cumulative-effect adjustment recorded to beginning retained earnings on the effective date. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this ASU on ~~our~~its future consolidated financial ~~statements.~~

~~In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU2017-01,~~~~Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business~~.This ASU clarifies the definition of a business in order to assist companies in the evaluation of whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The amended guidance also removes the existing evaluation of a market participant’s ability to replace missing elements and narrows the definition of output to achieve consistency with other topics. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years and should be applied on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. Adoption ofstatements but does not expect this ~~ASU is not expected~~update to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial ~~statements at~~statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. The amendments in this update align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a

service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). The accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract is not affected by the amendments in this update. The amendments in this update are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt this new ASU in fiscal 2021. The amendments in this update should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption.

~~In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU2017-12,~~~~Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities.~~ This ASU expands hedge accounting for both financial and nonfinancial risk components to better align hedge accounting with a company’s risk management strategies, simplify the application of hedge accounting, and increase transparency as to the scope and results of hedging programs. It also amends the presentation and disclosure requirements and changes how companies assess effectiveness. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. For cash flow hedges existing at the adoption date, the standard requires adoption on a modified retrospective basis with a cumulative-effect adjustment to the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of the beginning of the year of adoption. The amendments to presentation guidance and disclosure requirements are required to be adopted prospectively. The Company is in the process of ~~evaluating~~assessing the impact of this ASU on its future consolidated financial statements ~~and believes adoption of~~but does not expect this ~~standard will not~~update to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The update simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions for intra-period tax allocations, recognition of deferred tax liabilities after a foreign subsidiary transitions to or from equity method accounting, and methodology of calculating income taxes in an interim period with year-to-date losses. Additionally, the guidance provides additional clarification on other areas, including step-up of the tax basis of goodwill recorded as part of an acquisition and the treatment of franchise taxes that are partially based on income. This pronouncement is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt this new ASU in fiscal 2022. Companies are required to apply the standard on a prospective basis, except for certain sections of the guidance which shall be applied on a retrospective or modified retrospective basis. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of this ASU on its future consolidated financial statements but does not expect this update to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). The update provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the discontinuation of LIBOR or another discontinued reference rate if certain criteria are met. The pronouncement is effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 21, 2022. The Company plans to adopt this new ASU in fiscal 2022. Companies are required to apply the standard on a prospective basis, with any adjustments resulting from election of the amendments to existing hedging relationships reflected as of the beginning of the interim period of election. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of this ASU on its future consolidated financial statements but does not expect this update to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

4.	Revenue Recognition

The Company markets and distributes primarily national and company-branded food and food-related products to customer locations across the United States. The Foodservice segment supplies a “broad line” of products to its customers, including the Company’s performance brands and custom-cut meats and seafood, as well as products that are specific to each customer’s menu requirements. Vistar distributes candy, snacks, beverages, cigarettes, other tobacco products and other products to various customer channels. The Company disaggregates revenue by product offerings and determined that disaggregating revenue at the segment level achieves the disclosure objective to depict how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. Refer to Note 14. Segment Information for external revenue by reportable segment.

The Company has customer contracts in which incentives are paid upfront to certain customers. These payments have become industry practice and are not related to financing the customer’s business, nor are they associated with any distinct good or service to be received from the customer. These incentive payments are capitalized and amortized to net sales over the life of the contract or the expected life of the customer relationship on a straight-line basis.

During the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal ~~2018,~~2020 the Company paid $2.0 billion for 1 acquisition and during the first nine months of fiscal 2019, the Company paid cash of ~~$64.9~~$58.1 million for ~~an acquisition and during the first six months of fiscal 2017, the Company paid cash of $82.8 million for four~~3 acquisitions. ~~These~~The prior year acquisitions did not materially affect the Company’s results of operations.

The acquisition of Eby-Brown Company LLC (“Eby-Brown”) in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 included contingent consideration, including earnout payments in the event certain operating results are achieved during a defined post-closing period. Total contingent consideration outstanding was $91.1 million as of March 28, 2020 and $82.6 million as of June 29, 2019. Earnout liabilities are measured using unobservable inputs that are considered a Level 3 measurement.

On December 30, 2019, the Company acquired Reinhart from Reyes Holdings, L.L.C. in a transaction valued at $2.0 billion, or approximately $1.7 billion net of an estimated tax benefit to PFG of approximately $265 million. The $2.0 billion purchase price was financed with $464.7 million of borrowings under the ABL Facility (as defined below), net proceeds of $1,033.7 million from new senior unsecured Notes due 2027 (as defined below), and net proceeds of $490.6 million from an offering of shares of the Company’s common stock. The Reinhart acquisition expands the Company’s broadline presence by enhancing its distribution footprint in key geographies, and the Company believes it will help achieve its long-term growth goals. The Reinhart acquisition is reported in the Foodservice segment.

Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recognized at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date. The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation for each major class of assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the fiscal ~~2018~~2020 acquisition.

Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates and diesel fuel costs. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and payments related to the Company’s borrowings and diesel fuel purchases.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are both designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged transaction occurs. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings.

Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. Since the Company has a substantial portion of its debt in variable-rate instruments, it accomplishes this objective with interest rate swaps. These swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. All of the Company’s interest rate swaps are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges.

As of ~~December 30, 2017,~~March 28, 2020, Performance Food Group, Inc. had ~~eight~~8 interest rate swaps with a combined ~~$650~~$850.0 million notional amount. The following table summarizes the outstanding ~~Swap Agreements~~interest rate swap agreement as of ~~December 30, 2017~~March 28, 2020 (in millions):

April 15, 2021								December 15, 2024	$	350.0		0.84	%

For the three and nine months ended March 28, 2020, the Company recognized a loss of $6.7 million, net of tax, in accumulated other comprehensive income related to changes in the fair value of its interest rate swaps.

Hedges of Forecasted Diesel Fuel Purchases

From time to time, Performance Food Group, Inc. enters into costless collar or swap arrangements to manage its exposure to variability in cash flows expected to be paid for its forecasted purchases of diesel fuel. As of ~~December 30, 2017,~~March 28, 2020, Performance Food Group, Inc. was a party to ~~two~~16 such arrangements, with an aggregate ~~4.5~~32.7 million gallon original notional ~~amount.~~amount, of which an aggregate 28.4 million gallon notional was remaining. The ~~4.5~~remaining 28.4 million gallon forecasted purchases of diesel fuel are expected to be made between ~~January~~April 1, ~~2018~~2020 and ~~June 30, 2018.~~December 31, 2021.

The fuel collar instruments do not qualify for hedge accounting. Accordingly, the derivative instruments are recorded as an asset or liability on the balance sheet at fair value and any changes in fair value are recorded in the period of change as unrealized gains or losses on fuel hedging instruments and included in Other, net, in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

For the three and nine months ended March 28, 2020, the Company recognized losses of $7.4 million and $7.3 million, respectively, related to changes in the fair value of fuel collar and swap instruments.

7. ~~Fair Value of Financial Instruments~~

8.Leases

The ~~carrying values of cash, accounts receivable, outstanding checks~~Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception and recognizes a financing or operating lease liability and right-of-use asset in ~~excess of deposits, trade accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair values because of~~ the ~~relatively short maturities of those instruments. The derivative~~Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for both operating and finance leases are ~~recorded~~recognized based on present value of lease payments over the lease term at ~~fair~~commencement date. Since the Company’s leases

do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date to determine the present value of lease payments. This rate was determined by using the yield curve based on the Company’s credit rating adjusted for the Company’s specific debt profile and secured debt risk. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The ~~fair value of long-term debt, which has~~lease expenses for these short-term leases are recognized on a carrying value of $1,358.7 million and $1,247.7 million, is $1,378.1 million and $1,258.3 million at December 30, 2017 and July 1, 2017, respectively, and is determined by reviewing current market pricing related to comparable debt issued atstraight-line basis over the ~~time of the balance sheet date, and is considered a Level 2 measurement.~~

8.	~~Income Taxes~~

The determination of the Company’s overall effective tax rate requires significant judgment, the use of estimates and the interpretation and application of complex tax laws. The effective tax rate reflects the income earned and taxed in various United States federal and state jurisdictions. Tax law changes, increases and decreases in temporary and permanent differences between book and tax items, tax credits and the Company’s change in income in each jurisdiction all affect the overall effective tax rate. It is the Company’s practice to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.

On December 22, 2017, H.R.1, known as the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act,” (the “Act”) was signed into law. The Act makes broad and complex changes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code including, but not limited to: reducing the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%; creating a new limitation on deductible interest expense; repealing the domestic production activity deduction, providing for bonus depreciation that will allow for full expensing of certain qualified property; and limiting other deductions.

The Company’s net deferred tax liability of $103.0 million as of July 1, 2017 was determined using the federal corporate tax rate of 35% prior to the passage of the Act. The Act reduces the federal corporate tax rate to 21%, effective January 1, 2018. Consequently, we have recorded a $10.2 million decrease in deferred tax assets and a $47.6 million decrease in deferred tax liabilities with a corresponding net benefit to deferred income tax expense of $37.4 million for the three and six months ended December 30, 2017.

The SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 118 (“SAB 118”), which provides guidance on accounting for the tax effects of the Act. SAB 118 provides a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the Act enactment date for companies to complete the accounting under FASB ASC 740 – Income Taxes. In accordance with SAB 118, a company must reflect the income tax effects of those aspects of the Act for which the accounting under ASC 740 is complete. To the extent that a company’s accounting for certain income tax effects of the Act is incomplete but it is able to determine a reasonable estimate, it must record a provisional estimate in the financial statements. If a company cannot determine a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements, it should continue to apply ASC 740 on the basis of the provisions of the tax laws that were in effect immediately before the enactment of the Act.lease term. The Company has ~~not identified any items~~several lease agreements that contain lease and non-lease components, such as maintenance, taxes, and insurance, which are accounted for ~~which~~separately. The difference between the ~~income tax effects of the Act have not been substantially completed.~~

~~The Company’s effective tax rate was-128.3%~~operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities primarily relates to adjustments for ~~the three months ended December 30, 2017~~deferred rent, favorable leases, and ~~40.1% for the three months ended December 31, 2016. The Company’s effective tax rate was-43.1%~~ for the six months ended December 30, 2017 and 39.2% for the six months ended December 31, 2016. As a result in the reduction in the federal corporate income tax rate to 21% from 35% under the Act, the Company has a blended statutory rate of 28% for the three and six months ended December 30, 2017. For the three and six months ended December 30, 2016, the statutory rate was 35%. Additionally, during the three months ended December 30, 2017, performance vesting criteria for certain stock-based compensation awards was met resulting in a significant permanent tax deduction difference. The impact to the provision for stock-based compensation and the impact of the reduction in tax rate under the Act are summarized as follows:

As of December 30, 2017 and July 1, 2017, the Company had net deferred tax assets of $28.4 million and $43.1 million, respectively, and deferred tax liabilities of $94.4 million and $146.1 million, respectively. The Company believes that it is more likely than not that the remaining deferred tax assets will be realized.

~~The Company records a liability for Uncertain Tax Positions in accordance with FASB ASC740-10-25,~~~~Income Taxes – General - Recognition~~. As of December 30, 2017 and July 1, 2017, the Company had approximately $1.4 million and $1.3 million of unrecognized tax benefits, respectively. It is reasonably possible that a decrease of approximately $0.1 million in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits may occur within the next twelve months because of statute of limitations expirations, that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate.

9.	~~Commitments and Contingencies~~

~~Purchase Obligations~~

The Company had outstanding contracts and purchase orders for capital projects and services totaling $10.1 million at December 30, 2017. Amounts due under these contracts were not included on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 30, 2017. Subsequent to December 30, 2017, the Company entered into an additional contract totaling $8.8 million.

~~Guarantees~~prepaid rent.

Subsidiaries of the Company have entered into numerous operating and finance leases ~~including leases of buildings,~~for various warehouses, office facilities, equipment, tractors, and trailers.Our leases have remaining lease terms of 1 year to 20 years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to 10 years, and some of which include options to terminate the leases within 1 year. Certain full-service fleet lease agreements include variable lease payments associated with usage, which are recorded and paid as incurred. When calculating lease liabilities, lease terms will include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option.

Certain of the leases for tractors, trailers, and other vehicles and equipment provide for residual value guarantees to the lessors. Circumstances that would require the subsidiary to perform under the guarantees include either (1) default on the leases with the leased assets being sold for less than the specified residual values in the lease agreements, or (2) decisions not to purchase the assets at the end of the lease terms combined with the sale of the assets, with sales proceeds less than the residual value of the leased assets specified in the lease agreements. Residual value guarantees under these operating lease agreements typically range between 7%6% and ~~20%~~16% of the value of the leased assets at inception of the lease. These leases have original terms ranging from 45 to 87.2 years and expiration dates ranging from ~~2018~~2020 to ~~2025.~~2027. As of ~~December 30, 2017,~~March 28, 2020, the undiscounted maximum amount of potential future payments for lease residual value guarantees totaled approximately ~~$28.4~~$23.6 million, which would be mitigated by the fair value of the leased assets at lease expiration.

The ~~assessment as to whether it is probable that subsidiaries~~following table presents the location of the ~~Company will be required to make payments under~~right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in the ~~terms of the guarantees is based upon their actual and expected loss experience. Consistent with the requirements of FASB ASC460-10-50,~~~~Guarantees-Overall-Disclosure,~~ ~~the Company has recorded $0.2 million of the potential future guarantee payments on its~~Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of ~~December~~March 28, 2020 (in millions), as well as the weighted-average lease term and discount rate for the Company’s leases:

As of March 28, 2020, the Company has additional operating and finance leases that have not yet commenced which total $47.7 million in future minimum lease payments and $0.4 million of residual value guarantees. These leases primarily relate to warehouse leases and will commence in fiscal 2020 with lease terms of 7 to 15 years.

9.	Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable, outstanding checks in excess of deposits, trade accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair values because of the relatively short maturities of those instruments. The derivative assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet. The fair value of long-term debt, which has a carrying value of $3,186.4 million and $1,202.9 million, is $3,071.2 million and $1,216.3 million at March 28, 2020 and June 29, 2019, respectively, and is determined by reviewing current market pricing related to comparable debt issued at the time of the balance sheet date, and is considered a Level 2 measurement.

10.	Income Taxes

The determination of the Company’s overall effective tax rate requires significant judgment, the use of estimates, and the interpretation and application of complex tax laws. The effective tax rate reflects the income earned and taxed in various United States federal and state jurisdictions. Tax law changes, increases and decreases in temporary and permanent differences between book and tax

items, tax credits, and the Company’s change in income in each jurisdiction all affect the overall effective tax rate. It is the Company’s practice to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.

The Company’s effective tax rate was 33.6% for the three months ended March 28, 2020 and 26.1% for the three months ended March 30, ~~2017.~~2019. The Company’s effective tax rate was 7.3% for the nine months ended March 28, 2020 and 23.4% for the nine months ended March 30, 2019. The effective tax rate varied from the 21% statutory rate primarily due to state taxes, federal credits and other permanent items. The excess tax benefit of exercised and vested stock awards is treated as a discrete item. Other discrete items recognized for the three months ended March 28, 2020 included state tax credits and changes in uncertain tax positions. The effective tax rates for three months and nine months ended March 28, 2020 differed from the prior year periods due to the increase of non-deductible expenses and discrete items as a percentage of book income, which was significantly lower than the book income for the same periods of fiscal 2019.

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act, which provides relief to taxpayers affected by COVID-19. The CARES Act provides numerous tax provisions and other stimulus measures, including temporary changes regarding the utilization of net operating losses, temporary changes to limitations on interest deductions, deferral of certain payment requirements for the employer portion of Social Security taxes, technical corrections from prior tax legislation with respect to tax depreciation of certain qualified improvement property, and the creation of refundable employee retention credits. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the CARES Act on its consolidated financial statements and has not yet quantified what material impacts to the financial statements (if any) may result from provisions of the CARES Act. The Company anticipates it will likely benefit from the temporary five-year net operating loss carryback provisions, the technical correction for qualified leasehold improvements, and potentially other provisions within the CARES Act. At this time it is not possible to reasonably estimate the amount of net operating losses (if any) that might be available for carryback.

As of March 28, 2020 and June 29, 2019, the Company had net deferred tax assets of $29.1 million and $29.1 million, respectively, and deferred tax liabilities of $129.5 million and $137.1 million, respectively. As of June 29, 2019, the Company had established a valuation allowance of $0.5 million, net of federal benefit, against deferred tax assets related to certain net operating losses which are not likely to be realized due to short carryback periods. There was no change in the valuation allowance as of March 28, 2020. The Company believes that it is more likely than not that the remaining deferred tax assets will be realized.

The Company records a liability for Uncertain Tax Positions in accordance with FASB ASC 740-10-25, Income Taxes – General – Recognition. As of March 28, 2020 and June 29, 2019, the Company had approximately $0.5 million and $1.9 million of unrecognized tax benefits, respectively. It is reasonably possible that a decrease of approximately $0.4 million in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits may occur within the next twelve months primarily due to statute of limitations expirations, that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate.

11.	Commitments and Contingencies

Purchase Obligations

The Company had outstanding contracts and purchase orders for capital projects and services totaling $32.8 million at March 28, 2020. Amounts due under these contracts were not included on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of March 28, 2020.

Guarantees

The Company from time to time enters into certain types of contracts that contingently require it to indemnify various parties against claims from third parties. These contracts primarily relate to: (i) certain real estate leases under which subsidiaries of the Company may be required to indemnify property owners for environmental and other liabilities and other claims arising from their use of the applicable premises; (ii) certain agreements with the Company’s officers, directors, and employees under which the Companymay be required to indemnify such persons for liabilities arising out of their employment relationship; and (iii) customer agreements under which the Company may be required to indemnify customers for certain claims brought against them with respect to the supplied products.

Generally, a maximum obligation under these contracts is not explicitly stated. Because the obligated amounts associated with these types of agreements are not explicitly stated, the overall maximum amount of the obligation cannot be reasonably estimated. Historically, the Company has not been required to make payments under these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these obligations in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Litigation

The Company is engaged in various legal proceedings that have arisen but have not been fully adjudicated. The likelihood of loss arising from these legal proceedings, based on definitions within contingency accounting literature, ranges from remote to reasonably possible to probable. When losses are probable and reasonably estimable, they have been accrued. Based on estimates of the range of potential losses associated with these matters, management does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these proceedings, either

individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect upon the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company. However, the final results of legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty and, if the Company failed to prevail in one or more of these legal matters, and the associated realized losses were to exceed the Company’s current estimates of the range of potential losses, the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations could be materially adversely affected in future periods.

U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission Lawsuit. In March 2009, the Baltimore Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ~~or the “EEOC,”~~(“EEOC”) Field Office served usthe Company with company-wide (excluding, however, our Vistar and Roma Foodservice operations) subpoenas relating to alleged violations of the Equal Pay Act and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act (“Title VII”), seeking certain information from January 1, 2004 to a specified date in the first fiscal quarter of 2009. In August 2009, the EEOC moved to enforce the subpoenas in federal court in Maryland, and wethe Company opposed the motion. In February 2010, the court ruled that the subpoena related to the Equal Pay Act investigation was enforceable company-wide but on a narrower scope of data than the original subpoena sought (the court ruled that the subpoena was applicable to the transportation, logistics, and warehouse functions of ~~our~~the Company’s broadline distribution centers only and not to ~~our~~the Company’s PFG Customized distribution centers). WeThe Company cooperated with the EEOC on the production of information. In September 2011, the EEOC notified usthe Company that the EEOC was terminating the investigation into alleged violations of the Equal Pay Act. In determinations issued in September 2012 by the EEOC with respect to the charges on which the EEOC had based its company-wide investigation, the EEOC concluded that wethe Company engaged in a pattern of denying hiring and promotion to a class of female applicants and employees into certain positions within the transportation, logistics, and warehouse functions within ~~our~~the Company’s broadline division in violation of Title VII. In June 2013, the EEOC filed suit in federal court in Baltimore against ~~us.~~the Company. The litigation concerns two issues: (1) whether wethe Company unlawfully engaged in an ongoing pattern and practice of failing to hire female applicants into operations positions; and (2) whether wethe Company unlawfully failed to promote one of the three individuals who filed charges with the EEOC because of her gender. The EEOC seeks the following relief in the lawsuit: (1) to permanently enjoin usthe Company from denying employment to female applicants because of their sex and denying promotions to female employees because of their sex; (2) a court order mandating that wethe Company institute and carry out policies, procedures, practices and programs which provide equal employment opportunities for females; (3) back pay with prejudgment interest and compensatory damages for a former female employee and an alleged class of aggrieved female applicants; (4) punitive damages; and (5) costs. The court bifurcated the litigation into two phases. In the first phase, the jury will decide whether wethe Company engaged in a gender-based pattern and practice of discrimination and the individual claims of one former employee. If the EEOC prevails on all counts in the first phase, no monetary relief would be awarded, except possibly for the single individual’s claims, which would be immaterial. The remaining individual claims would then be tried in the second phase. At this stage in the proceedings, the Company cannot estimate either the number of individual trials that could occur in the second phase of the litigation or the value of those claims. For these reasons, ~~we are~~the Company is unable to estimate any potential loss or range of loss in the event of an adverse finding in the first and second phases of the litigation.

In May 2018, the EEOC filed motions for sanctions against the Company alleging that we failed to preserve certain paper employment applications and e-mails during 2004 – 2009. In the sanctions motions, the EEOC sought a range of remedies, including but not limited to, a default judgment against the Company, or alternatively, an order barring the Company from filing for summary judgment on the EEOC’s pattern and practice claims. The court denied the EEOC’s motions in June 2019, but reserved ruling on whether the unavailability of certain documents will prejudice the EEOC’s ability to present expert testimony at the trial.

The parties ~~are engaged in discovery. We intend~~filed cross motions for summary judgment, on March 18, 2020, the court denied both parties’ motions, which means the case will be set for trial.

Related-Party Transactions

~~Transaction and Advisory Fee Agreement~~

The Company was a party to an advisory fee agreement pursuant to which affiliates of The Blackstone Group L.P. and Wellspring provided management certain strategic and structuring advice and certain monitoring, advising, and consulting services to the Company. The advisory fee agreement provided for the payment by the Company of an annual advisory fee and the reimbursement of out of pocket expenses. In fiscal 2018 the Company will pay a total of $3.0 million related to this agreement, of which $1.5 million was paid in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and during the six months ended December 30, 2017 and $1.5 million will be paid in the third quarter of fiscal 2018. The payments made under this agreement totaled $5.5 million during the six months ended December 31, 2016.

~~Under its terms, this agreement terminated on October 6, 2017.~~

~~Other~~

Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted ~~EPS~~earnings per common share is calculated using the weighted-average

number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. In computing diluted ~~EPS,~~earnings per common share, the average closing stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased with the assumed proceeds ~~from the exercise of stock options~~ under the treasury stock method. ~~Potential common shares of 0.7 million and 0.7 million for~~For the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~December 30, 2017, respectively, were not included in computing~~March 28, 2020 diluted ~~earnings~~loss per common share is the same as basic loss per common share because the ~~effect would have been antidilutive.

The ~~Performance~~ Foodservice ~~(“PFS”)~~ segment markets and distributes food and food-related products to independent restaurants, chain restaurants, and other institutional “food-away-from-home” locations. ~~The PFG Customized segment principally serves the family~~Foodservice offers a “broad line” of products, including custom-cut meat and ~~casual dining channel but also serves fine dining, and fast casual restaurant chains.~~seafood, as well as products that are specific to our customer’s menu requirements. The Vistar segment distributes candy, ~~snack, beverage,~~snacks, beverages, cigarettes, other tobacco products, and other products to customers in the vending, office coffee services, theater, retail, convenience store and other channels. Intersegment sales represent sales between the segments, which are eliminated in consolidation. Management evaluates the performance of each operating segment based on various operating and financial metrics, including total sales and EBITDA. For PFG Customized, EBITDA includes certain allocated corporate charges that are included in operating expenses. The allocated corporate charges are determined based on a percentage of total sales. This percentage is reviewed on a periodic basis to ensure that the segment is allocated a reasonable rate of corporate expenses based on their use of corporate services.

Corporate & All Other is comprised of corporate overhead and certain operations that are not considered separate reportable segments based on their size. This includes the operations of the Company’s internal logistics unit responsible for managing and allocating inbound logistics revenue and ~~expense, as well as the operations of certain recent acquisitions.~~expense.

~~13.~~ ~~Stock-based Compensation~~

~~Performance Food Group Company provides compensation benefits to employees andnon-employee~~ directors under several share based payment arrangements. The Performance Food Group Company 2007 Management Option Plan (the”2007 Option Plan”) allowed for the granting of awards to employees, officers, directors, consultants, and advisors of the Company or its affiliates. The terms and conditions of awards granted under the 2007 Option Plan were determined by the Board of Directors.

The Tranche II and Tranche III options and restricted stock granted under the 2007 Option Plan are subject to both time and performance vesting, including performance criteria based on the internal rate of return and sponsor cash inflows as outlined in the 2007 Option Plan.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2018, Wellspring sold all of their remaining interest in shares of the Company’s common stock. On December 7, 2017, the Company determined that the performance criteria for the Tranche II and III awards had been met and 2.1 million shares of restricted stock and 1.4 million options vested. In the second quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company recognized approximately $6.3 million of accelerated compensation expense in connection with the vesting of the Tranche II and III awards. Based on the performance achieved, total compensation expense for the Tranche II and III awards was $24.9 million. The excess tax benefit recognized in the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended December 30, 2017 was $15.4 million.

In addition to historical consolidated financial information, this discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs and involve numerous risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to those described in the “Item 1A. Risk Factors” section of the Form10-K and ~~in the~~ “Part ~~II.~~II, Item 1A. Risk Factors” ~~section~~ of ~~our quarterly report on~~this Form~~10-Q~~ ~~for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2017.~~ 10-Q. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. You should carefully read “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in this Form10-Q.

Our Company

We market and distribute ~~approximately 150,000~~over 200,000 food and food-related products to customers across the United States from ~~approximately 76~~over 100 distribution facilities to over ~~150,000~~200,000 customer locations in the “food-away-from-home” industry. We offer our customers a broad assortment of products including our proprietary-branded products, nationally-branded products, and products bearing our customers’ brands. Our product assortment ranges from~~“center-of-the-plate”~~ “center-of-the-plate” items (such as beef, pork, poultry, and seafood), frozen foods, and groceries to candy, snacks, beverages, cigarettes, and ~~beverages.~~other tobacco products. We also sell disposables, cleaning and kitchen supplies, and related products used by our customers. In addition to the products we offer to our customers, we provide value-added services by allowing our customers to benefit from our industry knowledge, scale, and expertise in the areas of product selection and procurement, menu development, and operational strategy.

~~We have three~~The Company has two reportable segments: ~~Performance~~ Foodservice ~~PFG Customized,~~ and Vistar. Our ~~Performance~~ Foodservice segment distributes a broad line of national brands, customer brands, and our proprietary-branded food and food-related products, or “Performance Brands.” ~~Performance~~ Foodservice sells to independent ~~or “Street,”~~ and multi-unit ~~or “Chain,”~~“Chain” restaurants and other institutions such as schools, healthcare facilities, and business and industry locations. Our ~~PFG Customized segment has provided longstanding service to~~Chain customers are multi-unit restaurants with five or more locations and include some of the most recognizable family and casual dining ~~restaurant chains and recently expanded service into fast casual~~ restaurant chains. Our Vistar segment specializes in distributing candy, snacks, beverages, cigarettes, other tobacco products and other items nationally to ~~the~~ vending distributors, office coffee service ~~theater, retail, hospitality,~~distributors, big box retailers, theaters, convenience stores, and other channels. We believe that there are substantial synergies across our segments. Cross-segment synergies include procurement, operational best practices such as the use of new productivity technologies, and supply chain and network optimization, as well as shared corporate functions such as accounting, treasury, tax, legal, information systems, and human resources.

~~Recent Trends and Initiatives~~

Our case volume has grown in each quarter over the comparable prior fiscal year quarter, starting in the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and continuing through the most recent quarter. We believe that we gained industry share during the second quarter of fiscal 2018 given that we have grown our sales more rapidly than the industry growth rate forecasted by Technomic, a research and consulting firm serving the food and food related industry. Our Net income increased 240.6% from the second quarter of fiscal 2017 to the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and increased 186.6% from the first six months of fiscal 2017 to the first six months of fiscal 2018. Adjusted EBITDA increased 12.2% from the second quarter of fiscal 2017 to the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and increased 15.4% from the first six months of fiscal 2017 to the first six months of fiscal 2018, driven primarily by case growth and improved profit per case. Case volume grew 4.2% in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and 3.9% in the first six months of fiscal 2018 compared to the prior year periods. Gross margin dollars rose 9.7% and 9.1% in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and the first six months of fiscal 2018, respectively, versus the prior year periods primarily as a result of shifting our channel mix toward higher gross margin customers and shifting our product mix toward sales of Performance Brands. Our operating expenses, compared to the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2017, increased 11.3% and 8.2%, respectively, as a result of increases in variable operational and selling expenses associated with the increase in case volume, as well as due to several~~one-time~~ ~~expenses including accelerated stock-based compensation expense.~~

Key Factors Affecting Our Business

We believe that our short-term performance is principally affected by the COVID-19 pandemic:

In March 2020, during the Company’s third quarter ended March 28, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak to be a global pandemic. In response to this declaration and the rapid spread of COVID-19 across the country, federal, state, and local governments have implemented various means of slowing the spread of the virus. These measures include quarantines, stay-at-home or shelter-in-place orders, school closures, travel restrictions, closure of non-essential businesses, and other means. These measures have already had a significant adverse impact on the economy, but the full scope of the impact of COVID-19 is unknown.

As an essential element of the country’s food supply chain, the Company has continued to operate all of it distribution centers. Despite the Company’s continued operations, mandatory and voluntary containment measures in response to COVID-19 have had a significant impact on the food-away-from-home industry, as many restaurants have closed, are restricting the number of patrons they will serve at one time, or are only providing carry-out or delivery options. These restrictions have also impacted businesses throughout the economy, including theaters, retail operations, schools and other businesses we provide products and services to. Additionally, any economic recession in the future will likely have an adverse impact on the industry, as the frequency of purchases and amount spent by consumers for food away from home can impact our customers and therefore our sales.

During our third quarter ended March 28, 2020, we began to see the impact of COVID-19 in our operations, including significant decreases in sales. Despite these difficulties, we have taken steps to ensure a strong financial position including forging new partnerships with grocery locations, supporting restaurant customers with the transition to higher volumes in take-out and delivery, and other means. Actions we have taken with the goal of maintaining financial liquidity and flexibility have included halting non-essential capital expenditure activities, managing costs, suspending our share repurchase program, furloughing or eliminating approximately 3,000 positions across our organization and loaning approximately 1,000 associates to grocery retail partners to help maintain food supply, as well as deferring 25% of our senior management’s base compensation and 25% of the cash fees to our directors for the period commencing April 6, 2020 through December 31, 2020. We have drawn $400 million from the Company’s $3.0 billion revolving line of credit under the ABL Facility and entered into the First Amendment to the ABL Facility to provide for the $110 million Additional Junior Term Loan. Additionally, we issued and sold 15,525,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and issued and sold the Notes due 2025.

We continue to assess the economic situation and evaluate measures to lessen the adverse impact of COVID-19 on our operations. However, there is no certainty that such measures, or measures that we have already taken, will be successful in mitigating the risks posed by COVID-19. We expect that COVID-19 will have a material adverse impact on our reported results for our fourth fiscal quarter of 2020 and potentially beyond. However, the extent to which COVID-19 will affect our operations and results are highly variable and cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. For further discussion of this matter, refer “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Part II of this report.

We believe that our long-term performance is principally affected by the following key factors:

•

Changing demographic and macroeconomic trends.The share of consumer spending captured by thefood-away-from-home industry increased steadily for several decades and paused during the recession that began in 2008. Following the recession, the share has again increased as a result of increasing employment, rising disposable income, increases in the number of restaurants, and favorable demographic trends, such as smaller household sizes, an increasing number of dual income households, and an aging population base that spends more per capita at foodservice establishments. The foodservice distribution industry is also sensitive to national and regional economic conditions, such as changes in consumer spending, changes in consumer confidence, and changes in the prices of certain goods.

•

Food distribution market structure.~~We are the third largest foodservice distributer by revenue in the United States behind Sysco and US Foods, which are both national broadline distributors.~~ The ~~balance of the~~food distribution market consists of a wide spectrum of companies ranging from businesses selling a single category of product (e.g., produce) to large national and regional broadline distributors with many distribution centers and thousands of products across all categories. We believe our scale enables us to invest in our Performance Brands, to benefit from economies of scale in purchasing and procurement, and to drive supply chain efficiencies that enhance our customers’ satisfaction and profitability. We believe that the relative growth of larger foodservice distributors will continue to outpace that of smaller, independent players in our industry.

•

Our ability to successfully execute our segment strategies and implement our initiatives.Our performance will continue to depend on our ability to successfully execute our segment strategies and to implement our current and future initiatives. The key strategies include focusing on independent sales and Performance Brands, pursuing new customers for ~~all three~~both of our reportable segments, expansion of geographies, utilizing our infrastructure to gain further operating and purchasing efficiencies, and making strategic acquisitions.

How We Assess the Performance of Our Business

In assessing the performance of our business, we consider a variety of performance and financial measures. The key measures used by our management are discussed below. The percentages on the results presented below are calculated based on rounded numbers.

Net Sales

Net sales is equal to gross sales, plus excise taxes, minus sales returns; sales incentives that we offer to our customers, such as rebates and discounts that are offsets to gross sales; and certain other adjustments. Our net sales are driven by changes in case volumes, product inflation that is reflected in the pricing of our products, and mix of products sold.

Gross Profit

Gross profit is equal to our net sales minus our cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold primarily includes inventory costs (net of supplier consideration) and inbound freight. Cost of goods sold generally changes as we incur higher or lower costs from our suppliers and as our customer and product mix changes.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

Management measures operating performance based on our EBITDA, defined as net income before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is not defined under ~~U.S.~~ GAAP and is not a measure of operating income, operating performance, or liquidity presented in accordance with ~~U.S.~~ GAAP and is subject to important limitations. Our definition of EBITDA may not be the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies.

We believe that the presentation of EBITDA enhances an investor’s understanding of our performance. We use this measure to evaluate the performance of our segments and for business planning purposes. We present EBITDA in order to provide supplemental information that we consider relevant for the readers of our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report, and such information is not meant to replace or supersede ~~U.S.~~ GAAP measures.

In addition, our management uses Adjusted EBITDA, defined as net income before interest expense, interest income, income and franchise taxes, and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted to exclude certain items that we do not consider part of our core

operating results. Such adjustments include certain unusual,non-cash,non-recurring, cost reduction, and other adjustment items permitted in calculating covenant compliance under our ~~credit agreement~~ABL Facility and ~~indenture~~indentures (other than certain pro forma adjustments permitted under our ~~credit agreement~~ABL Facility and ~~indenture~~indentures governing the Notes due 2024, Notes due 2027 and Notes due 2025 relating to the Adjusted EBITDA contribution of acquired entities or businesses prior to the acquisition date). Under our ~~credit agreement~~ABL Facility and ~~indenture,~~indentures, our ability to engage in certain activities such as incurring certain additional indebtedness, making certain investments, and making restricted payments is tied to ratios based on Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the ~~credit agreement~~ABL Facility and ~~indenture)~~indentures). Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA is not defined under ~~U.S.~~ GAAP and is subject to important limitations. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties, including our lenders under the ABL Facility ~~(as defined below under “-Liquidity and Capital Resources”)~~ and holders of our Notes ~~(as defined below under “-Liquidity~~due 2024, Notes due 2027 and ~~Capital Resources”),~~Notes due 2025, in their evaluation of the operating performance of companies in industries similar to ours. In addition, targets based on Adjusted EBITDA are among the measures we use to evaluate our management’s performance for purposes of determining their compensation under our incentive plans.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have important limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under ~~U.S.~~ GAAP. For example, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA:

•

exclude certain tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us;

•

do not reflect any cash capital expenditure requirements for the assets being depreciated and amortized that may have to be replaced in the future;

•

do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; and

•

do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements, necessary to service our debt.

In calculating Adjusted EBITDA, we add back certainnon-cash,non-recurring, and other adjustment items as permitted or required by our ~~credit agreement~~ABL Facility and ~~indenture.~~indentures. Adjusted EBITDA among other things:

~~does not include~~

•

does not include non-cash stock-based employee compensation expense and other non-cash ~~stock-based employee compensation expense and certain othernon-cash~~ charges; and

~~does not include cash andnon-cash~~ ~~restructuring, severance, and relocation costs incurred to realize future cost savings and enhance our operations; and~~

~~does not reflect advisory fees paid.~~

•

does not include acquisition, restructuring, and other costs incurred to realize future cost savings and enhance our operations.

We have included the calculations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented.

Net Sales

Net sales growth is a function of case growth, pricing (which is primarily based on product inflation/deflation), and a changing mix of customers, channels, and product categories sold. Net sales increased ~~$259.3~~$2,311.7 million, or ~~6.4%~~49.3%, for the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal ~~2018~~2020 compared to the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal ~~2017~~2019 and increased ~~$578.1~~$5,467.9 million, or ~~7.1%~~39.5%, for the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal ~~2018~~2020 compared to the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal ~~2017. The increase~~2019. These increases in net sales ~~was~~were primarily attributable to ~~sales growth in Vistar, particularly~~recent acquisitions. The acquisition of Eby-Brown in the ~~theater, hospitality, retail,~~fourth quarter of 2019 contributed $1,212.1 million and ~~vending channels, case growth in Performance Foodservice, particularly~~$3,846.9 million of net sales in the ~~independent channel, and recent acquisitions. Net sales growth was driven by case volume growth of 4.2% and 3.9% in the second~~third quarter and first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal ~~2017,~~2020, respectively, ~~as well as an increase~~including $256.9 million and $815.9 million related to excise taxes for the respective periods. The acquisition of Reinhart in ~~selling price per case~~the third quarter of 2020 contributed $1,355.1 million of net sales in ~~both~~ the ~~second~~third quarter and first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal ~~2018~~2020. Case volume increased 26.4% and 14.6% in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2020, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. Excluding the impact of the Reinhart and Eby-Brown acquisitions, case volume declined 7.2% and 0.9% in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2020, respectively, as compared to the prior year periods due primarily to the effects of COVID-19.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased ~~$50.4~~$202.8 million, or ~~9.7%~~33.5%, for the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal ~~2018~~2020 compared to the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal ~~2017~~2019 and increased ~~$93.8~~$417.2 million, or ~~9.1%~~23.0%, for the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal ~~2018~~2020 compared to the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal ~~2017.~~2019. The ~~increase in~~acquisition of Reinhart contributed $167.6 million of gross profit ~~was primarily~~for the result of growth in cases.

Operating expenses also increased inby $22.2 million for the ~~second~~third quarter and $35.0 million for the first nine months of fiscal ~~2018~~2020 as a result of professional fees related to acquisitions and $18.3 million for the third quarter and $19.5 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2020 due to ~~a $7.2 million~~an increase in ~~stock-based compensation~~reserves related to expected credit losses as a result of the ~~accelerated vesting of performance-based awards under the 2007 Option Plan andnon-recurring~~ ~~development costs related to certain productivity initiatives the Company no longer plans to pursue. For the first six months of fiscal 2018, operating expenses also increased as a result of~~current economic environment resulting from COVID-19. These increases ~~in stock-based compensation expense of $6.4 million and fuel expense of $5.6 million,~~were partially offset by a decrease in bonus expense of ~~$2.0~~$46.2 million ~~in professional, legal~~ and ~~consulting fees.~~$34.2 million for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2020, respectively, compared to the prior year periods.

Depreciation and amortization of intangible assets increased from ~~$30.4~~$39.7 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal ~~2017~~2019 to ~~$32.3~~$99.3 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal ~~2018.~~2020.

Depreciation~~2020, of ~~fixed assets increased as a result~~ which approximately $16.4 million of ~~larger capital outlays~~accelerated amortization related to ~~support our growth, as well as recent acquisitions. This increase~~customer relationships and trade names was ~~partially offset by decreases in amortization of intangible assets, since certain intangibles are now fully amortized compared to the prior year.~~

~~Net Income~~

~~Net income increased $55.1 million, or 240.6%, for the second quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2017~~recorded as a result of the ~~$59.2~~impact of COVID-19 on the expected future net sales to Reinhart customers.

Net income decreased $72.5 million, or 224.5%, for the third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2019. The decrease in net income was primarily attributable to a $76.6 million decrease in operating profit along with a $18.7 million increase in interest expense, partially offset by a $31.7 million decrease in income tax ~~expense, partially offset by~~expense. Net income decreased $66.5 million, or 64.2%, for the ~~$2.2~~first nine months of fiscal 2020 compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2019. The decrease in net income was primarily attributable to a $56.2 million decrease in operating profit along with a ~~$1.5~~$30.8 million increase in interest expense, ~~and~~partially offset by a ~~$0.4~~$28.7 million decrease in ~~other income.~~income tax expense.

The decrease in operating profit was a result of the increase in operating expenses discussed ~~above.~~above, partially offset by the increase in gross profit. The increase in interest expense was primarily the result of ~~higher average borrowings and~~ an increase in ~~the average interest rate~~borrowings during ~~the second quarter of~~ fiscal ~~2018~~2020 compared to ~~the second quarter of~~ fiscal ~~2017. The $0.4 million decrease in other income related primarily to derivative activity.~~2019.

Our effective tax rate ~~in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 was-128.3%~~ ~~compared to 40.1% in the second quarter of fiscal 2017.~~

The Act was signed into law on December 22, 2017. Among its numerous changes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, the Act reduces the U.S. federal corporate rate from 35% to 21%, which will result in a blended U.S. Federal statutory rate of approximately 28% for the Company. As a result of the Act, the Company revalued its net deferred tax liability, resulting in a decrease to the net deferred tax liability of $37.4 million with a corresponding net benefit to income tax expense of $37.4 million for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~December 30, 2017. The Company estimates that its effective tax rate for fiscal 2018 will be approximately 33%.~~

~~Additionally, in the second quarter of fiscal 2018, performance vesting criteria for certain stock-based compensation awards~~March 28, 2020 was ~~met resulting in an excess tax benefit of $15.4 million~~33.6% compared to 26.1% for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~December~~March 30, ~~2017.~~

The $0.9 million decrease in other income related primarily to derivative activity.~~2019.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have historically financed our operations and growth primarily with cash flows from operations, borrowings under our credit facility, operating and capital leases, and normal trade credit terms. We have typically funded our acquisitions with additional borrowings under our credit facility. Our working capital and borrowing levels are subject to seasonal fluctuations, typically with the lowest borrowing levels in the third and fourth fiscal quarters and the highest borrowing levels occurring in the first and second fiscal quarters. We believe that our cash flows from operations and available borrowing capacity will be sufficient both to meet our anticipated cash requirements over at least the next twelve months and to maintain sufficient liquidity for normal operating purposes.

At December 30, 2017, our cash balance totaled $23.0 million, including restricted cash of $12.9 million, as compared to a cash balance totaling $21.0 million, including restricted cash of $12.9 million, at July 1, 2017. This increase in cash during the first six months of fiscal 2018 was attributable to net cash provided by financing activities of $70.8 million and net cash provided by operating activities of $32.6 million, partially offset by net cash used in investing activities of $101.4 million. We borrow under our ~~ABL Facility~~credit facility or pay it down regularly based on our cash flows from operating and investing activities. Our practice is to minimize interest expense while maintaining reasonable liquidity.

As market conditions warrant, we ~~and our stockholders~~ may from time to time ~~depending upon market conditions,~~ seek to repurchase our securities or loans in privately negotiated or open market transactions, by tender offer or otherwise. Any such repurchases may be funded by incurring new debt, including additional borrowings under our ~~ABL Facility.~~credit facility. In addition, depending on conditions in the credit and capital markets and other factors, we will, from time to time, consider other financing transactions, the proceeds of which could be used to refinance our indebtedness, make investments or acquisitions or for other purposes. Any new debt may be secured debt.

~~Operating Activities~~

~~Six~~COVID-19

The unprecedented impact of COVID-19 has grown throughout the world, including in the United States, and governmental authorities have implemented numerous measures attempting to contain and mitigate the effects of the virus, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter in place orders, shutdowns and social distancing requirements. These measures have adversely affected and may further adversely affect the Company’s workforce and operations and the operations of its customers and suppliers. We and our distribution centers have experienced instances of reduced operations, including reduced operating hours, and in markets where governments have imposed restrictions on travel outside of the home, or where customers are practicing social distancing, many of our customers, including restaurants, schools, hotels, movie theaters, and business and industry locations, have reduced or discontinued operations, which has and is expected to continue to adversely affect demand in the foodservice industry, including demand for our products and services.

We have focused and are continuing to focus on financial measures to enhance our liquidity profile, as we believe the reduced or discontinued operations of many of our customers will continue to adversely affect demand for our products and services for an inherently uncertain period of time. Actions we have taken with the goal of maintaining financial liquidity and flexibility have included halting non-essential capital expenditure activities, managing costs, suspending our share repurchase program, furloughing or eliminating approximately 3,000 positions across our organization and loaning over 1,100 associates to grocery retail partners to help maintain food supply, as well as deferring 25% of our senior management’s base compensation and 25% of the cash fees to our directors

for the period commencing April 6, 2020 through December 31, 2020. Given the uncertainties associated with the severity and duration of the outbreak, we have also drawn $400 million on the revolving line of credit under our ABL Facility, entered the First Amendment to provide the $110 million Additional Junior Term Loan, issued and sold shares of common stock, and issued and sold the Notes due 2025. We may explore more opportunities to raise additional funds and further strengthen our liquidity.Such financings may be in the form of secured or unsecured loans or issuances of debt securities, and there can be no assurance as to the timing, amount or mix of financing alternatives, or whether we will obtain financing on terms favorable to us, or at all.

We believe that our cash flows from operations, available borrowing capacity, and the actions noted above will be sufficient both to meet our anticipated cash requirements over at least the next 12 months and to maintain sufficient liquidity for normal operating purposes.

At March 28, 2020, our cash balance totaled $383.2 million, including restricted cash of $11.1 million, as compared to a cash balance totaling $25.4 million, including restricted cash of $10.7 million, at June 29, 2019. This increase in cash during the first nine months of fiscal 2020 was attributable to net cash provided by operating activities of $17.6 million and net cash provided by financing activities of $2,429.5 million, partially offset by net cash used in investing activities of $2,089.3 million.

Total Assets by Segment

Total assets by segment discussed below exclude intercompany receivables between segments.

Total assets for ~~Performance~~ Foodservice increased ~~$150.5~~$2,567.7 million from ~~$2,011.8~~$3,166.5 million as of ~~December 31, 2016~~March 30, 2019 to ~~$2,162.3~~$5,734.2 million as of ~~December~~March 28, 2020. Total assets for Foodservice increased $2,581.9 million from $3,152.3 million as of June 29, 2019 to $5,734.2 million as of March 28, 2020. For both periods, this segment increased its property, plant and equipment, inventory, accounts receivable, goodwill, and intangible assets primarily due to the acquisition of Reinhart.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Critical accounting policies and estimates are those that are most important to portraying our financial position and results of operations. These policies require our most subjective or complex judgments, often employing the use of estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Our most critical accounting policies and estimates include those that pertain to the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, inventory valuation, insurance programs, income taxes, vendor rebates and promotional incentives, and goodwill and other intangible assets, ~~and stock-based compensation,~~ which are described in the ~~Company’s~~ Form~~10-K~~ ~~for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2017.~~ 10-K. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to our critical accounting policies and estimates described in the Form10-K.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

~~Our market risks consist~~Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk related to changes in interest rates for borrowings under our ABL Facility. Although we hedge a portion of our interest rate risk through interest rate swaps, any borrowings under our ABL Facility in excess of the notional amount of the swaps will be subject to variable interest rates.

As of March 28, 2020, our subsidiary, Performance Food Group, Inc., had eight interest rate swaps with a combined value of $850.0 million notional amount that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate ~~risk~~risk. See Note 7. Derivatives and Hedging Activities within the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 for further discussion of these interest rate swaps.

The changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction impacts earnings. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on our variable-rate debt. During the next twelve months, we estimate that lossess of approximately $2.5 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.

Based on the fair values of these interest rate swaps as of March 28, 2020, a hypothetical 100 bps decrease in LIBOR would result in a loss of $12.3 million and a hypothetical 100 bps increase in LIBOR would result in a gain of $15.9 million within accumulated other comprehensive income.

Assuming an average daily balance on our ABL Facility of approximately $1.5 billion, approximately $265 million of our outstanding long-term debt is fixed through interest rate swap agreements over the next twelve months and approximately $1.3 billion represents variable-rate debt. A hypothetical 100 bps increase in LIBOR on our variable-rate debt would lead to an increase of approximately $12.5 million in annual cash interest expense.

Fuel Price Risk

We seek to minimize the effect of higher diesel fuel ~~price risk. There have been no material changes~~costs both by reducing fuel usage and by taking action to offset higher fuel prices. We reduce usage by designing more efficient truck routes and by increasing miles per gallon through on-board computers that monitor and adjust idling time and maximum speeds and through other technologies. In our Foodservice and Vistar segments, we seek to manage fuel prices through diesel fuel surcharges to our customers and through the use of costless collar or swap arrangements.

The Company’s fuel collar and swap arrangements do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment for reasons discussed in Note 7. Derivatives and Hedging Activities within the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 above. Therefore, these collars and swaps are recorded at fair value as either an asset or liability on the balance sheet. Any changes in fair value are recorded in the period of the change as unrealized gains or losses on fuel hedging instruments. As a result of the significant decrease in fuel prices during our fiscal third quarter, the Company recognized losses of $7.4 million related to changes in the fair value of fuel collar and swap instruments.

Our fuel purchases occur at market ~~risks since July 1, 2017. For~~prices. Using published market price projections for diesel and estimates of fuel consumption, a ~~discussion on~~10% hypothetical increase in diesel prices from the market price would result in a potential increase of approximately $11.9 million in annual fuel costs included in Operating expenses. As discussed above, this increase in fuel costs would be partially offset by fuel surcharges passed through to our ~~exposure to market risk, see Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks” in our Annual Report on Form10-K~~ ~~for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2017.~~customers.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Regulations under the ~~Securities~~ Exchange Act ~~of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”),~~ require public companies, including us, to maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” which are defined in Rule13a-15(e) and Rule15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act to mean a company’s controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required or necessary disclosures. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. In accordance with Rule13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this ~~Quarterly Report on~~ Form10-Q, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this ~~Quarterly Report on~~ Form10-Q, were effective to accomplish their objectives at a reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rule13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act), that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended ~~December 30, 2017~~March 28, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

As permitted by applicable SEC guidance, the scope of our evaluation regarding changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended March 28, 2020 excluded internal control over financial reporting for Reinhart, which was acquired on December 30, 2019.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings

We are subject to various allegations, claims, and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business.

While it is impossible to determine with certainty the ultimate outcome of any of these proceedings, lawsuits, and claims, management believes that adequate provisions have been made or insurance secured for all currently pending proceedings so that the ultimate outcomes will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position. During the three months ended ~~December 30, 2017,~~March 28, 2020, there have been no material changes to legal proceedings from those discussed in the ~~Company’s~~ Form~~10-K~~ ~~for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2017, except as it relates to the matter discussed below.~~

~~Wilder, et al. v. Roma Food Enterprises, Inc., et al.~~ ~~The court granted final approval of the settlement stipulation on November 6, 2017. We funded the $1.9 million settlement on January 10, 2018, thereby ending the litigation.~~ 10-K.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to our principal risks that we believe are material to our business, results of operations, and financial condition from the risk factors previously disclosed in the ~~Company’s~~ Form10-K, ~~for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2017 and Form10-Q~~ ~~for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2017,~~ which ~~are~~is accessible on the SEC’s website atwww.sec.gov., except as follows:

Risks Related to Our Business

The recent novel coronavirus (COVID-19) global pandemic has had and is expected to continue to have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

The recent novel coronavirus (COVID-19) global pandemic has had and is expected to continue to have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. In late 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, was first detected. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic, and governmental authorities around the world have implemented measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter in place orders, shutdowns and social distancing requirements. These measures have adversely affected workforces, suppliers, customers, consumer sentiment, economies, and financial markets, and, along with decreased consumer spending, have led to an economic downturn in many of our markets. In addition, there is significant uncertainty regarding such measures and potential future measures, and restrictions on our access to our distribution centers or on our workforce, or similar limitations for our suppliers, could limit customer demand and/or our capacity to meet customer demand and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity profile. As a result of COVID-19, we and our distribution centers have experienced instances of reduced operations, including reduced operating hours, and in markets where governments have imposed restrictions on travel outside of the home, or where customers are practicing social distancing, many of our customers, including restaurants, schools, hotels, movie theaters, and business and industry locations, have reduced or discontinued operations, which has and is expected to continue to adversely affect demand in the foodservice industry, including demand for our products and services. These events have had, and are expected to continue to have, an adverse impact on numerous aspects of our business, financial condition and results of operations including, but not limited to, our growth, product costs, supply chain disruptions, labor shortages, logistics constraints, customer demand for our products and industry demand generally, consumer spending, our liquidity, the price of our securities and trading markets with respect thereto, our ability to access capital markets, and the global economy and financial markets generally.

While we are unable to predict the impact that COVID-19 will have on our operations going forward due to uncertainties including the severity and duration of the outbreak and governmental and social responses and additional actions that may be taken by governmental authorities, we currently expect our total sales for the fourth quarter ending June 27, 2020, to be significantly and adversely impacted. The continued spread of COVID-19 and further implementation of governmental and social responses could further cause disruption in our supply chain, cause delay, or limit the ability of, customers to continue to operate and perform, including in making timely payments to us or at all, result in labor or food shortages, result in impairment charges or cause other unpredictable events, any of which could materially and adversely impact our operations.

Although we have reduced cash expenditures on inventory in response to reduced demand, any near-term liquidity benefit of doing so may be offset to the extent our customers are unable or unwilling to settle accounts receivable with us on a timely basis or at all. Deterioration in the quality of our accounts receivable (including delinquency or remaining outstanding beyond a certain number of days and insolvency or cessation of business at the debtor) may also negatively affect our ability to borrow under our ABL Facility, which is limited by a borrowing base calculation that incorporates the value of eligible accounts receivable. In addition, to the extent our sales volumes increase we expect to incur incremental costs to increase our working capital to meet demand.

To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic continues to adversely affect our business, results of operation and financial condition, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in our Form 10-K, such as those relating to our high level of indebtedness, our need to generate sufficient cash flows to service our indebtedness, and our ability to comply with the covenants contained in the agreements that govern our indebtedness and may have an adverse effect on the price of our common stock. We may pursue alternatives to further increase our liquidity, including additional debt or equity financings, which may increase our interest expense, result in additional dilution, subject us to additional operating restrictions or negatively affect the price of our common stock.

We may be unable to successfully integrate Reinhart’s business with our business and realize the anticipated benefits of the Reinhart Acquisition.

The success of the previously completed Reinhart acquisition will depend, in part, on our ability to successfully combine Reinhart, which previously operated as an independent company, with our business and realize the anticipated benefits, including synergies, cost savings, innovation and operational efficiencies, from the combination. Such integration has been, and will continue to be, impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. If we are unable to achieve these objectives within the anticipated time frame, or at all, the anticipated benefits may not be realized fully, or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected and the value of our common stock may be harmed.

The Reinhart acquisition involves the integration of Reinhart with our existing business, which is a complex, costly and time-consuming process. We had not previously completed a transaction comparable in size or scope to the Reinhart acquisition. The continued integration of Reinhart into our business may result in material challenges, including, without limitation:

the diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business concerns and performance shortfalls as a result of the devotion of management’s attention to the integration of the Reinhart business;

managing a larger company;

maintaining employee morale and attracting and motivating and retaining management personnel and other key employees;

the possibility of faulty assumptions underlying expectations regarding the integration process;

retaining existing business and operational relationships and attracting new business and operational relationships;

consolidating corporate and administrative infrastructures and eliminating duplicative operations;

coordinating geographically separate organizations;

unanticipated issues in integrating information technology, communications and other systems;

unanticipated changes in federal or state laws or regulations; and

unforeseen expenses associated with the Reinhart acquisition, including delays to the integration of the Reinhart business as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Many of these factors will be outside of our control and any one of them could result in delays, increased costs, decreases in the amount of expected revenues and diversion of management’s time and energy, which could materially affect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

On November 13, 2018, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $250 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The share repurchase program does not have an expiration date and may be amended, suspended, discontinued at any time. Repurchases under this program depend upon market place conditions and other factors, including compliance with the covenants under the ABL Facility and the indentures governing the Notes due 2024 and Notes due 2027. The share repurchase program remains subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors. During the three months ended March 28, 2020, the Company repurchased and subsequently retired 0.3 million shares of common stock, for a total of $5.0 million. On March 23, 2020, the Company discontinued further repurchases under the plan. As of March 28, 2020, approximately $235.7 million remained available for additional share repurchases.

On May 4, 2020, the Company adopted the Performance Food Group Company Executive Severance Plan (the “Severance Plan”). George L. Holm, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, James D. Hope, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, Patrick T. Hagerty, Executive Vice President and President and Chief Executive Officer of Vistar, and Craig H. Hoskins, Executive Vice President and President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company’s Foodservice segment, along with other designated executive officers of the Company, are participants in the Severance Plan.

The Severance Plan provides that if a participant’s employment is terminated by the Company or an affiliate without “Cause” or by the participant for “Good Reason” (each term as defined in the Severance Plan), the participant will be entitled to certain severance payments based on the participant’s “tier” level.

•A Tier I Participant (only Mr. Holm) is entitled to receive cash severance equal to 2.0 times the Tier I Participant’s salary if his or her employment is terminated without Cause or if the Tier I Participant resigns with Good Reason. If the Tier I Participant’s employment is terminated without Cause or if the Tier I Participant resigns with Good Reason within 90 days before or 24 months after a Change in Control (as defined in the Severance Plan), then the Tier I Participant will receive an additional amount of cash severance benefit equal to 2.0 times the Tier I Participant’s target bonus.

•A Tier II Participant (including Messrs. Hope, Hagerty and Hoskins) is entitled to receive cash severance equal to 1.5 times the Tier II Participant’s salary if his or her employment is terminated without Cause or the Tier II Participant resigns with Good Reason. If the Tier II Participant’s employment is terminated without Cause or if the Tier II Participant resigns with Good Reason within 90 days before or 24 months after a Change in Control, then the Tier II Participant will receive an additional amount of cash severance benefit equal to the sum of 0.5 times the Tier II Participant’s salary plus 2.0 times the Tier II Participant’s target bonus.

•A Tier III Participant is entitled to receive cash severance equal to 1.0 times the Tier III Participant’s salary if his or her employment is terminated without Cause or the Tier III Participant resigns with Good Reason. If the Tier III Participant’s employment is terminated without Cause or if the Tier III Participant resigns with Good Reason within 90 days before or 24 months after a Change in Control, then the Tier III Participant will receive an additional amount of cash severance benefit equal to 1.0 times the Tier III Participant’s target bonus.

A participant who is entitled to receive cash severance benefits under the Severance Plan will also be entitled to receive monthly COBRA supplements equal to the monthly payment that former employees of the Company are required to pay for COBRA coverage for the same type and level of coverage that was in effect for the participant and his or her qualified beneficiaries on the date the participant’s employment with the Company and its affiliates ended minus monthly payment that the participant paid for such coverage immediately before such employment ended.

The provision of payments and benefits described above is conditioned upon (i) a participant’s execution of an agreement (“Participation Agreement”) confirming his or her agreement to be bound by all the terms and conditions of the Severance Plan, (ii) a participant’s execution of a release of claims following the termination of the participant’s employment with the Company and its affiliates, and (iii) a participant’s agreement not to compete with the Company or solicit its employees or customers for one year following termination of employment, and not to use or disclose the Company’s confidential information.

The Severance Plan provides that if a participant receives any amount, whether under the Severance Plan or otherwise, that is subject to the excise tax imposed pursuant to Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, the amount of the payments to be made to the participant will be reduced to the extent necessary to avoid imposition of the excise tax, but only if the net amount of those reduced payments exceeds the net amount that the participant would receive following imposition of the excise tax and all income and related taxes.

Participants in the Severance Plan are not eligible to participate in, or receive benefits under, any other severance plan, policy or agreement of the Company, including the Company’s prior Senior Management Severance Plan or under the terms of any prior employment or related letter agreement.

The foregoing description of the Severance Plan and the Participation Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Severance Plan and the Participation Agreement, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2, respectively, and incorporated by reference herein.
