Forward-Looking Statements and Use of Non-GAAP Measures

This presentation contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, based on current expectations, estimates and projections that are subject to risk. Forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain, and actual events could differ materially from the Company’s predictions. Important factors that could cause actual events to vary from predictions include those discussed in our SEC filings. Specifically, statements in this presentation about financial performance, new business development, growth potential, market leadership, and the impact and potential of the Company’s products and services on the marketplace and customers are forward-looking statements that are subject to a variety of factors, including availability of capital, personnel and other resources; competition, governmental regulation of the beef industry, the market for beef and other factors. Readers should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. The Company assumes no obligation to update its forward-looking statements to reflect new information or developments. For a more extensive discussion of the Company’s business, please refer to the Company’s SEC filings at www.sec.gov.Note on non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation also includes a discussion of adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measureprovided as a complement to the results provided in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles("GAAP"). Adjusted EBITDA excludes stock-based compensation and, when appropriate, other items thatmanagement does not utilize in assessing the Company's operating performance. None of these non-GAAPfinancial measures are recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be an alternative to net income asan indicator of operating performance or any other GAAP measure. We intend to continue to provide thesenon-GAAP financial measures as part of our future earnings discussions because we believe they are useful toinvestors and other external users of our financial statements in evaluating our operating performance.
