If a decrease in value is deemed other than temporary, the Company would record an impairment charge, which may have an impact on the values of USPB’s Class A and Class B units. NBP’s plants are currently operational and its results of operations are profitable, as reflected in Note 6.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Earnings Per Unit | (5) Earnings Per Unit Under the LLC structure, earnings of the Company are to be allocated to unitholders based on their proportionate share of underlying equity. Earnings Per Unit (EPU) has been presented in the accompanying Statements of Operations and in the table that follows. Basic EPU excludes dilution and is computed by first allocating a portion of USPB’s net income or net loss to Class A units and allocating the remainder to Class B units. For the quarterly and year-to-date periods ended June 24, 2023 and June 25, 2022, respectively, 10% of USPB’s net income was allocated to the Class A units and 90% to the Class B units. The net income allocated to the Class A units and Class B units were then divided by the weighted-average number of Class A units and Class B units outstanding for the period to determine the basic EPU for each respective unit class. Diluted EPU reflects the potential dilution that could occur if any securities or contracts to issue Class A units or Class B units were exercised. There are no such securities or rights outstanding.

Investment in National Beef Packing Company, LLC | (6) Investment in National Beef Packing Company, LLC USPB’s 15.0729% investment in NBP is accounted for using the equity method of accounting because the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over NBP, but does not have financial or operational control.

Legal Proceedings | (10) Legal Proceedings USPB is not currently involved in any litigation. However, because its ownership interest in NBP is USPB’s largest asset and because of the cattle procurement and distribution relationship between USPB and NBP, litigation involving NBP may impact USPB. NBP is a defendant in (i) five putative class action lawsuits in the United States District Court, Minnesota District, alleging that it violated the Sherman Antitrust Act, the Packers and Stockyards Act, the Commodity Exchange Act, and various state laws and (ii) putative class action lawsuits in the Supreme Court of British Columbia and the Superior Court of Quebec, Montreal District, alleging that it violated the Canadian Competition Act and various provincial laws (the “Beef Class Actions”). The Beef Class Actions are entitled In re Cattle Antitrust Litigation Peterson et al. v. JBS USA Food Company Holdings, et al. In re DPP Beef Litigation Erbert & Gerbert’s, Inc. v. JBS USA Food Company Holdings, et al. Specht v. Tyson Foods, Inc., et al. Giang Bui v. Cargill, Incorporated, et al Sylvie De Bellefeuille v. Cargill, Inc. et al.

In re: Cattle and Beef Antitrust Litigation In addition to the above antitrust litigation, NBP is subject to an investigation by the United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”) and approximately 30 state attorneys general regarding fed cattle and beef packing markets. NBP is cooperating with these investigations and is working with the DOJ and the relevant states to provide information requested in connection with the investigations. NBP believes it has meritorious defenses to any potential claims that might arise out of these government investigations, although there can be no assurance as to the outcome of these investigations or the impact on NBP’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. NBP and one of its subsidiaries are defendants in a putative class action lawsuit entitled Brown, et al. v. JBS USA Food Company et al. NBP is a party to various other lawsuits and claims arising out of the operation of its business. Management of NBP believes the ultimate resolution of such matters should not have a material adverse effect on NBP’s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. USPB is not able to assess what impact, if any, the actions described above will have on NBP or USPB. |
