Acquirers continue to look for companies with: − A consumer focus on healthy lifestyles (i.e. responsibly sourced, minimal processing or added chemicals, wholesome ingredients, plant-based protein, etc.) − Potential to enter new markets (i.e. product categories and geographies) − High growth brand(s) to balance out existing mature portfolios 10% Consumer Confidence (left-axis) Umemployment Rate (right-axis) 95 • The Food and Agricultural Organization (“FAO”) index, which measures the change in international prices of a basket of food commodities, averaged 150 in January 2016, down 15.9% from January 2015.

Abundant supplies, lackluster demand, and an appreciating U.S. dollar are behind the decline in global food prices. The FAO index remains at its lowest point since March 2009 (146). • Food-at-home CPI (grocery store food items) showed a modest decrease of 1.0% in January 2016 compared to January 2015. Disease and drought led to higher egg, pork, and beef prices in 2015; however, the effects on eggs and pork are beginning to subside. USDA Economic Resource Service expects food prices to rise 2.0% to 3.0% in 2016, approximately the average rate of inflation over the last 20 years. 12% Aug-10 • The consumer confidence index measured 98 in January, 5.5% lower than the 2015 high of 104 experienced last January. Consumers generally do not view the volatility in financial markets as having a significant impact on the economy, while Consumer Confidence Survey numbers have been relatively flat in recent months.
