Nature of Operations and Principles of Consolidation
Description of Business

The Simply Good Foods Company (“Simply Good Foods” or the “Company”) is a consumer packaged food and beverage company that aims to lead the nutritious snacking movement with trusted brands that offer a variety of convenient, innovative, great-tasting, better-for-you snacks and meal replacements, and other product offerings. The product portfolio the Company develops, markets and sells consists primarily of protein bars, ready-to-drink (“RTD”) beverages, sweet and salty snacks and confectionery products marketed under the Quest, Atkins, and OWYN brand names. Simply Good Foods is poised to expand its wellness platform through innovation and organic growth along with acquisition opportunities in the nutritional snacking space.

On April 29, 2024, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) to acquire Only What You Need, Inc. (“OWYN”), a plant-based protein food company (the “OWYN Acquisition”), for approximately $280.0 million. On June 13, 2024, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company completed the OWYN Acquisition by acquiring 100% of the equity interests for a cash purchase price at closing of $281.9 million, subject to certain customary post-closing adjustments.

Our nutritious snacking platform consists of brands that specialize in providing products for consumers that follow certain nutritional philosophies and health-and-wellness trends: Quest for consumers seeking a variety of protein-rich foods and beverages that also limit sugars and simple carbohydrates, Atkins for those following a low-carbohydrate lifestyle or seeking to manage weight or blood sugar levels, and OWYN for consumers seeking protein-rich beverages that are plant-based and tested for the top nine allergens that also limit sugars and simple carbohydrates. We distribute our products in major retail channels, primarily in North America, including grocery, club, and mass merchandise, as well as through e-commerce, convenience, specialty, and other channels. Our portfolio of nutritious snacking brands gives us a strong platform with which to introduce new products, expand distribution, and attract new consumers to our products.

The common stock of Simply Good Foods is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “SMPL.”
