Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for the quarter and six months ended June 28, 2024 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary for fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the quarter and six months ended June 28, 2024 are subject to significant seasonal variations and are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 27, 2024. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2023.

We are required to evaluate events occurring after June 28, 2024 for recognition and disclosure in the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for the quarter and six months ended June 28, 2024. Events are evaluated based on whether they represent information existing as of June 28, 2024, which require recognition in the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, or new events occurring after June 28, 2024 which do not require recognition but require disclosure if the event is significant to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. We evaluated events occurring subsequent to June 28, 2024 through the date of issuance of these unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest

As part of the Mann Packing acquisition in 2018, we acquired a put option exercisable by the 25% shareholder of one of the acquired subsidiaries. The put option allowed the noncontrolling shareholder to sell its 25% noncontrolling interest to us for a multiple of the subsidiary's adjusted earnings. As the put option was outside of our control, the carrying value of the 25% noncontrolling interest was presented as a redeemable noncontrolling interest outside of permanent equity on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. At each reporting period, the redeemable noncontrolling interest was recognized at the higher of (1) the initial carrying amount adjusted for accumulated earnings and distributions or (2) the contractually-defined redemption value as of the balance sheet date.

During the year ended December 29, 2023, the noncontrolling shareholder exercised its put option right and accordingly, we closed the purchase of the remaining 25% of this subsidiary for $5.2 million in cash consideration. The transaction was accounted for as an equity transaction, with the differential between the redeemable noncontrolling interest carrying amount at the time of closing and the cash purchase price being recognized as a $42.7 million increase in paid-in capital within shareholders' equity on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.
