SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) about us and our industry that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including statements regarding our future results of operations or financial condition, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “will” or “would” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning the following:

•

the effects of the current COVID-19 pandemic, or of other global outbreaks of pandemics or contagious diseases or fear of such outbreaks, including on our supply chain, the demand for our products, and on overall economic conditions and consumer confidence and spending levels;

•

our expectations regarding our revenue, expenses and other operating results;

•

our ability to acquire new customers and successfully retain existing customers;

•

our ability to attract and retain our suppliers, distributors and co-manufacturers;

•

our ability to sustain or increase our profitability;

•

our ability to procure sufficient high quality eggs, butter and other raw materials;

•

real or perceived quality with our products or other issues that adversely affect our brand and reputation;

•

changes in the tastes and preferences of our consumers;

•

the financial condition of, and our relationships with, our suppliers, co-manufacturers, distributors, retailers and foodservice customers, as well as the health of the foodservice industry generally;

•

real or perceived quality or health issues with our products or other issues that adversely affect our brand and reputation;

•

the ability of our suppliers and co-manufacturers to comply with food safety, environmental or other laws or regulations;

•

future investments in our business, our anticipated capital expenditures and our estimates regarding our capital requirements;

•

the costs and success of our marketing efforts, and our ability to promote our brand;

•

our reliance on key personnel and our ability to identify, recruit and retain skilled personnel;

•

our ability to effectively manage our growth;

•

our focus on a specific public benefit purpose and producing a positive effect for society may negatively influence our financial performance;

•

our ability to compete effectively with existing competitors and new market entrants;

•

the impact of adverse economic conditions;

•

the sufficiency of our cash to meet our liquidity needs and service our indebtedness;

•

seasonality; and

•

the growth rates of the markets in which we compete.

You should not rely on forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. We have based the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q primarily on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and operating results. The outcome of the events described in these forward-looking statements is subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors described in the section titled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The results, events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur, and actual results, events or circumstances could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements.

In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based on information available to us as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. And while we believe that information provides a reasonable basis for these statements, that information may be limited or incomplete. Our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain, and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely on these statements.

The forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures or investments.

Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “Vital Farms,” “the Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” or similar references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refer to Vital Farms, Inc. and its subsidiaries.
