Golden Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”) is a holding company which owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Golden Flake Snack Foods, Inc., a wholly-owned operating subsidiary company (“Golden Flake” or the “Company”).
The Company was originally organized under the laws of the State of Alabama as Magic City Food Products, Inc. on June 11, 1946. On March 11, 1958, it adopted the name Golden Flake, Inc. The Company was reorganized December 31, 1967 as a Delaware corporation. On January 1, 1977, the Company, which had been engaged in the business of manufacturing and distributing potato chips, fried pork skins, cheese curls, and other snack foods, spun off its operating division into a separate Delaware corporation known as Golden Flake Snack Foods, Inc. and adopted its present name of Golden Enterprises, Inc.
Golden Flake Snack Foods, Inc.
General
Golden Flake is a Delaware corporation with its principal place of business and home office located at One Golden Flake Drive, Birmingham, Alabama. Golden Flake has been a premiere producer, marketer, and distributor of snack products in the Southeastern United States since 1923. Golden Flake manufactures and distributes a full line of high quality salted snack items, such as potato chips, tortilla chips, corn chips, fried pork skins, baked and fried cheese curls, onion rings, and puff corn. Golden Flake also sells canned dips, pretzels, peanut butter crackers, cheese crackers, dried meat products, and nuts packaged by other manufacturers using the Golden Flake label.
Raw Materials
Golden Flake purchases raw materials used in manufacturing and processing its snack food products from various sources. A large part of the raw materials used by Golden Flake consists of farm commodities, most notably corn, potatoes and pork skin pellets, which are subject to precipitous change in supply and price. Weather varies from season to season and directly affects both the quality and quantity of supply available. Golden Flake has no control over the agricultural aspects or prices and its profits are affected accordingly. The Company also purchases flexible bags or other suitable wrapping material for the storage, shipment, and presentation of the finished product to the customers.
Distribution
Golden Flake sells its products through both its own sales organization and independent distributors, principally to commercial establishments which sell food products in Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana, Kentucky, and South Carolina as well as parts of Florida, North Carolina, Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Virginia, Indiana, and Texas. The Golden Flake brand is well-known throughout the Southeast. The products are distributed to its sales organization and independent distributors by either company transportation or commercial carrier out of the Birmingham and Ocala plants.
Golden Flake’s products are sold to a wide variety of grocery store chains, discount stores, convenience stores, restaurants, and other outlets located in our marketing area. Golden Flake is not dependent on any one or a few major customers.
Competition
The snack foods business is highly competitive. In the area in which Golden Flake operates, many companies engage in the production and distribution of food products similar to those produced and sold by Golden Flake. Most, if not all, of Golden Flake’s products are in direct competition with similar products of several local and regional companies, many of which are larger in terms of capital and sales volume than is Golden Flake, and at least one national company, the Frito Lay Division of Pepsi Co., Inc.. Golden Flake’s marketing thrust is aimed at selling the highest quality product possible and giving good service to its customers, while being competitive with its prices. Golden Flake constantly tests the quality of its products for comparison with other similar products of competitors and maintains tight quality controls over its products. The Company believes that one of its major advantages is the Golden Flake brand, which has been developed and enhanced throughout the history of the company and is now well known within the geographic area served by the Company. The Company continues to promote the Golden Flake brand through sponsorship agreements, billboard campaigns, advertising, and other efforts.
Intellectual Property
The name “Golden Flake” and its regularly used symbol are federally registered trademarks of the Company. The Company also owns other trademarks such as “The South’s Original Potato Chip”, a Golden Flake design from 1922, the name “Sweetheat” and certain other trademarks not used on a regular basis.
Employees
As of June 12, 2015, Golden Flake employed approximately 744 employees. Of these employees, 725 were full-time, while 19 were part-time. Approximately 311 employees are involved in sales, 199 are in production, 133 are in management and 101 are in administrative personnel.
Golden Flake believes that the performance and loyalty of its employees are two of the most important factors in the growth and profitability of its business. Since labor costs represent a significant portion of Golden Flake’s expenses, employee productivity is important to profitability. Golden Flake considers all of its employees to be a part of the “Golden Flake Family”.

As a smaller reporting company, the Company is not required to provide a statement of risk factors. However, the Company believes this information may be valuable to our shareholders for this filing. The Company reserves the right to not provide risk factors in the future.
Important factors that could cause the Company’s actual business results, performance, or achievements to differ materially from any forward looking statements or other projections contained in this Annual Form 10-K Report include, but are not limited to the principal risk factors set forth below. Additional risks and uncertainties, including risks not presently known to the Company, or that it currently deems immaterial, may also impair the Company’s business and or operations. If the events discussed in these risk factors occur, the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be adversely affected in a material way and the market value of the Company’s common stock could decline.
Competition
Price competition and consolidation within the Snack Food industry could adversely impact the Company’s performance. The Company’s business requires significant marketing and sales effort to compete with larger companies. These larger competitors sell a significant portion of their products through discounting and other price cutting techniques. This intense competition increases the possibility that the Company could lose one or more customers, lose market share and/or be forced to increase discounts, and reduce pricing, any of which could have an adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operation, and/or cash flow.
Commodity Cost Fluctuations
Significant commodity price fluctuations for certain commodities purchased by the Company, particularly potatoes, corn, pork skins, and cooking oils could have a material impact on results of operations. These price fluctuations can be impacted by various factors including weather conditions, such as flooding or drought. In an attempt to manage commodity cost fluctuations, the Company, in the normal course of business, enters into contracts to purchase pre-established quantities of various types of raw materials, at contracted prices based on expected short term needs.
Energy Cost Fluctuations
The Company can be adversely impacted by changes in the cost of natural gas and other fuel costs, such as gasoline and diesel fuel. Long term increases in the cost of natural gas and fuel costs could adversely impact and increase the Company’s cost of sales and marketing, selling, and delivery expenses.
Breaches of Our Information Technology Systems
Company operations use and store sensitive data, including proprietary business information and personally identifiable information, in secure data centers and on our networks. The Company could face a number of threats to its data centers and networks of unauthorized access, security breaches and other system disruptions. It is critical to the Company that its infrastructure remains secure and is perceived by customers to be secure. The Company uses encryption and authentication technologies to secure the transmission and storage of data. Despite its security measures, information technology systems may be vulnerable to attacks by hackers or other disruptive problems. Any such security breach may compromise information used or stored on the Company’s networks and may result in significant data losses or theft of our or our customers' proprietary business information or personally identifiable information. A cybersecurity breach could negatively affect the Company’s reputation. In addition, a cyber attack could result in other negative consequences, including remediation costs, disruption of internal operations, increased cybersecurity protection costs, lost revenues or litigation, which could have a material adverse effect on the business, results of operations and financial condition of the Company.
Product Liability
The Company is subject to a risk of product liability if the Company’s products actually are alleged to result, in bodily injury. While the Company maintains what it believes to be reasonable limits of stop loss insurance coverage to appropriately respond to such liability exposures, large product liability claims, if made, could exceed our insurance coverage limits. There can be no assurance that the Company will not incur significant costs in relation to such claims in the future.
Risks Relating to the Company’s Common Stock and the Securities Market
The trading price of shares of the Company’s common stock may be affected by many factors and the price of shares of its common stock could decline. As a smaller publicly traded company, the trading price of the Company’s common stock has fluctuated significantly in the past. The future trading price of the Company’s common stock may be volatile and could be subject to material price fluctuations. There are other risks and factors not described above that could also cause actual results to differ materially from those in any forward looking statement made by the Company.
ITEM 1B. – UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
Not Applicable.
The headquarters of the Company are located in Birmingham, Alabama at One Golden Flake Drive. The properties of Golden Flake are described below.
Manufacturing Plants and Office Headquarters
The main plant and office headquarters of Golden Flake are located in Birmingham, Alabama, at One Golden Flake Drive and are situated on approximately 40 acres of land. This facility consists of three buildings which have a total of approximately 300,000 square feet of floor area. The Birmingham plant manufactures a full line of Golden Flake products. Golden Flake also has a garage and vehicle maintenance service center, from which it services, maintains, repairs, and rebuilds its fleet and delivery trucks in Birmingham.
Golden Flake also has a manufacturing plant in Ocala, Florida. This plant was placed in service in November 1984. The Ocala plant consists of approximately 100,000 square feet of floor area and is located on a 28-acre site on Silver Springs Boulevard. The Company manufactures tortilla chips and potato chips from this facility.
Management believes that the Company’s facilities for the production of the products are suitable and adequate, that they are being appropriately utilized in line with past experience, and that they have sufficient production capacity for their present intended purposes. The extent of utilization of such facilities varies based upon seasonal demand for the products. It is not possible to measure with any degree of certainty or uniformity the productive capacity and extent of utilization of these facilities. However, management believes that additional production can be obtained at the existing facilities by adding personnel and capital equipment, by adding shifts of personnel, or expanding the facilities. The Company continuously reviews our anticipated requirements for facilities and, on the basis of that review, may from time to time acquire additional facilities and/or dispose of existing facilities.
Both manufacturing plants and the office headquarters are owned by Golden Flake and are owned free and clear of any debt.
Distribution Warehouses
Golden Flake owns central branch warehouses in Birmingham, Montgomery, Midfield, Demopolis, Fort Payne, Muscle Shoals, Huntsville, Phenix City, Tuscaloosa, Mobile, Dothan, and Oxford, Alabama; Biloxi and Jackson, Mississippi; Knoxville and Memphis, Tennessee; Macon, Georgia; Panama City, Tallahassee, and Pensacola, Florida; and New Orleans, Louisiana. The warehouses vary in size from 2,400 to 8,000 square feet. All central branch warehouses are owned free and clear of any debts. The Company also rents satellite warehouse branches throughout its distribution area.
There are no material pending legal proceedings against the Company or its subsidiary other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business of the Company and its subsidiary.

ITEM 7. – MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GOLDEN ENTERPRISES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion provides an assessment of the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and capital resources and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes.
Overview
The Company manufactures and distributes a full line of snack items, such as potato chips, tortilla chips, corn chips, fried pork skins, baked and fried cheese curls, onion rings, and puff corn. The products are all packaged in flexible bags or other suitable wrapping material. The Company also sells canned dips, pretzels, peanut butter crackers, cheese crackers, dried meat products, and nuts packaged by other manufacturers using the Golden Flake label.
No single product or product line accounts for more than 50% of the Company’s sales, which affords some protection against loss of volume due to a crop failure of major agricultural raw materials or failure to procure an adequate supply of pork skin pellets. Raw materials used in manufacturing and processing the Company’s snack food products are purchased on the open market, under contract through brokers and directly from growers. A large part of the raw materials used by the Company consists of farm commodities which are subject to precipitous changes in supply and price. Weather varies from season to season and directly affects both the quality and supply of farm commodities available. The Company has no control of the agricultural aspects and its profits are affected accordingly.
The Company sells its products through both its own sales organization and independent distributors principally to commercial establishments that sell food products primarily in the Southeastern United States. The products are distributed through independent distributors and Company route representatives who are supplied with selling inventory by the Company’s trucking fleet. All of the route representatives are employees of the Company and use the Company’s direct-store delivery system.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements, the preparation of which is in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that in certain circumstances affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. In preparing these financial statements, management has made its best estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the financial statements, giving due considerations to materiality. The Company does not believe there is a great likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions related to the accounting policies described below. However, application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Other accounting policies and estimates are detailed in Note 1 of the Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-K.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes sales and related costs upon delivery or shipment of products to its customers, including independent distributors. Sales are reduced by returns from and allowances to customers.
Accounts Receivable
The Company records accounts receivable at the time revenue is recognized. Amounts for bad debt expense are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The amount of the allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management’s estimate of the accounts receivable amount that is uncollectible. The Company records a general reserve based on analysis of historical data. In addition, the Company records specific reserves for receivable balances that are considered high-risk due to known facts regarding the customer. The allowance for bad debts is reviewed quarterly, and determined whether the amount should be changed. Failure of a major customer to pay the Company amounts owed could have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company. At May 29, 2015 and May 30, 2014, the Company had accounts receivables in the amount of $11,085,689 and $11,341,024, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $70,000 and $70,000, respectively. The Company did not have any major customer write-offs this year that were not covered by credit insurance.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is computed on the first-in, first out method.
Accrued Expenses
The Company is self-insured for certain casualty losses relating to automobile liability, general liability, workers’ compensation, property losses, and medical claims all of which are herein referred to as “Casualty Expenses”. Management estimates certain expenses in an effort to record those expenses in the period incurred. The Company’s significant estimates relate to Casualty Expenses. The Company also has stop loss insurance coverage to limit the exposure arising from these claims. Automobile liability, general liability, workers’ compensation, and property losses costs are covered by letters of credit with the company’s claim administrators.
The Company uses a third-party actuary to estimate the Casualty Expenses and obligations on an annual basis.
In determining the ultimate loss and reserve requirements, the third-party actuary uses various actuarial assumptions including compensation trends, health care cost trends, and discount rates. The third-party actuary also uses historical information for claims frequency and severity in order to establish loss development factors.
The actuarial calculation includes a factor to account for changes in inflation, health care costs, compensation and litigation cost trends, as well as estimated future incurred claims. This year, the Company utilized a 50% confidence level for estimating the ultimate outstanding casualty liability based on the actuarial report. This assumes that approximately 50% of each claim should be equal to or less than the ultimate liability recorded based on the historical trends experienced by the Company. If the Company chose a 75% factor, the liability would have been increased by approximately $0.3 million. If the Company chose a 90% factor, the liability would have increased by approximately $0.6 million.
This year the Company used a 4% investment rate to discount the estimated claims based on the historical payout pattern during 2015 and 2014. A one percentage point change in the discount rate would have impacted the liability by approximately $36,000.
Actual ultimate losses could vary from those estimated by the third-party actuary. The Company believes the reserves established are reasonable estimates of the ultimate liability based on historical trends.
As of May 29, 2015, the Company’s casualty reserve was $1,472,182 and at May 30, 2014 the casualty reserve was $1,349,181.
Employee medical expense accruals are recorded based on medical claims processed as well as historical medical claims experienced for claims incurred but not yet reported. Differences in estimates and assumptions could result in an accrual requirement materially different from the calculated accrual.
Other Commitments
The Company has a letter of credit in the amount of $1,850,000 outstanding at May 29, 2015 and $1,850,000 at May 30, 2014. The letter of credit supports the Company’s self-insurance program.
The Company has a line-of-credit agreement with a local bank that permits borrowing up to $3 million. The line-of-credit is subject to the Company’s continued credit worthiness and compliance with the terms and conditions of the loan agreement with the bank. The Company’s line-of-credit debt at May 29, 2015 was $2,823,477 with an interest rate of 3.25%, leaving the Company with $176,523 of credit availability. The Company’s line-of-credit debt at May 30, 2014 was $2,528,511 with an interest rate of 3.25%, leaving the Company with $471,489 of credit availability.
The Company’s current ratio (current assets divided by current liabilities) was 1.47 to 1.00 and 1.38 to 1.00 at May 29, 2015 and May 30, 2014, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Working capital was $6,584,930 and $5,701,190 at May 29, 2015 and May 30, 2014, respectively. Net cash provided by operations amounted to $5,005,501 and $3,263,728 in fiscal years May 29, 2015 and May 30, 2014, respectively. During 2015, the principal source of liquidity for the Company’s operating needs was provided from operating activities, credit facilities, and cash on hand.
Additions to property, plant and equipment are expected to be approximately $2,000,000 in fiscal year 2016.
Cash dividends of $1,452,803 and $1,466,581 were paid in 2015 and 2014, respectively.
The Company purchased 440,875 shares of treasury stock for the amount of $2,204,375 during fiscal 2015 and did not purchase any shares of treasury stock in fiscal 2014.
During fiscal 2015, the Company’s debt proceeds net of re-paid debt was $1,993,471 versus $410,372 during fiscal 2014.
Market Risk
The principal market risks (i.e. the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices) to which the Company is exposed are interest rates on its cash equivalents and bank loans, fuel costs, and commodity prices affecting the cost of its raw materials.
The Company is subject to market risk with respect to commodities because its ability to recover increased costs through higher pricing may be limited by the competitive environment in which it operates. The Company purchases its raw materials on the open market, under contract through brokers and directly from growers. Futures contracts have been used occasionally to hedge immaterial amounts of commodity purchases, but none are presently being used.
Inflation
Certain costs and expenses of the Company are affected by inflation. The Company’s prices for its products over the past several fiscal years have remained relatively flat. The Company plans to contend with the effect of further inflation through efficient purchasing, improved manufacturing methods, pricing, and by monitoring and controlling expenses.
Environmental Matters
Golden Flake’s waste water treatment plant is an environmentally-friendly way to dispose of process water at the Birmingham plant. The treatment plant has allowed Golden Flake to release the processing water into a neighboring creek which has improved the flow of water in the creek and has positively impacted the environment in the area surrounding the plant. The treatment plant has also helped to reduce expenses associated with sewer charges since this has replaced the previous system which disposed of the process water through the public sewer system.
Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results could differ materially from those forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially include price competition, industry consolidation, raw material costs, fuel costs, and effectiveness of sales and marketing activities, as described in this 10-K. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which speak only as of the date which they are made.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Golden Enterprises, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Golden Enterprises, Inc. and subsidiary (“the Company”) as of May 29, 2015 and May 30, 2014, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule of Golden Enterprises, Inc. and subsidiary listed in Item 15(a). These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Golden Enterprises, Inc. and subsidiary as of May 29, 2015 and May 30, 2014, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Fiscal Years Ended May 29, 2015 and May 30, 2014
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting and reporting policies of Golden Enterprises, Inc. and subsidiary (“Company”) conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and to general practices within the snack foods industry. The following is a description of the more significant accounting policies:
Nature of the Business
The Company manufactures and distributes a full line of snack items that are sold through its own sales organization and independent distributors to commercial establishments that sell food products primarily in the Southeastern United States.
Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Golden Enterprises, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Golden Flake Snack Foods, Inc. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes sales and related costs upon delivery or shipment of products to its customers. Sales are reduced by returns and allowances to customers.
Accounts Receivable
The Company records accounts receivable at the time revenue is recognized. Amounts for bad debt expense are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses. The determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management’s estimate of uncollectible accounts receivables. The Company records a general reserve based on analysis of historical data. In addition, management records specific reserves for receivable balances that are considered at higher risk due to known facts regarding the customer.
Fiscal Year
The Company ends its fiscal year on the Friday closest to the last day in May. The year ended May 29, 2015 included 52 weeks as did the year ended May 30, 2014.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, and short-term debt approximate fair value.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is computed on the first-in, first-out method.
GOLDEN ENTERPRISES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Fiscal Years Ended May 29, 2015 and May 30, 2014
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation and amortization have been provided principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Accelerated methods are used for tax purposes. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred; expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized and written off by depreciation and amortization charges. Property retired or sold is removed from the asset and related accumulated depreciation accounts and any profit or loss resulting there from is reflected in the statements of operations.
Self-Insurance
The Company is self-insured for certain casualty losses relating to automobile liability, general liability, workers’ compensation, property losses, and medical claims. The Company also has stop loss coverage to limit the exposure arising from these claims. Automobile liability, general liability, workers’ compensation, and property losses costs are covered by letters of credit with the company’s claim administrators.
Due to the complexity of estimating the timing and amounts of insurance claims, the Company uses a third-party actuary to estimate the casualty insurance obligations on an annual basis. In determining the ultimate loss and reserve requirements, the third-party uses various actuarial assumptions including compensation trends, health care cost trends, and discount rates. The third-party actuary also uses historical information for claims frequency and severity in order to establish loss development factors. The actuarial calculation includes a factor to account for changes in inflation, health care costs, compensation, and litigation cost trends, as well as estimated future incurred claims. Large fluctuations in claims can have a significant impact on selling, general and administrative expenses.
Advertising
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. These costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses. Advertising expense amounted to $7,973,958 and $7,767,596 for the fiscal years 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are provided using the liability method to measure tax consequences resulting from differences between financial accounting standards and applicable income tax laws. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Segment Information
The Company does not identify separate operating segments for management reporting purposes. The results of operations are the basis on which management evaluates operations and makes business decisions. The Company’s sales are generated primarily within the Southeastern United States.
Stock Options
The Company granted stock options to management on April 9, 2015. See Note 8 for further discussion of the Company’s stock option awards.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Fiscal Years Ended May 29, 2015 and May 30, 2014
Shipping and Handling Costs
Shipping and handling costs, which include salaries and vehicle operations expenses relating to the delivery of products to customers by the Company, are classified as selling, general and administrative expenses. Shipping and handling costs amounted to $3,827,583 and $3,838,605 for the fiscal years 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
There were no new accounting pronouncements that were of significance or potential significance to us.
NOTE 2 – RESTATEMENT OF PRIOR PERIOD FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Prior period financial statements have been restated to reflect adjustments to the Company’s financial information previously reported on form 10K for the year ended May 30, 2014.
The Company determined that there had been an error in its accounting for deferred income taxes. The error resulted in an understatement of deferred income tax assets, and an understatement of deferred income tax liabilities. A restatement adjustment was made to correct the error by increasing deferred income tax assets $835,832, and increasing deferred income tax liabilities by the same amount. The adjustments resulted in no change to the equity position of the Company or earnings per share.
These restatement adjustments resulted in a change to the Company’s working capital and current ratio calculations as follows:

In March 2009, the Company established a construction line of credit with interest-only payments due through the end of the construction period at a fixed rate of 4.25%.

At that time, the interest rate on the loan was adjusted to 3.52% and the terms were re-established at 15 years for the new amount of the loan.

NOTE 9 – LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLANS
The Company has a long-term incentive plan currently in effect under which stock option grants may be issued. A total of 310,000 stock options were granted to key employees on April 9, 2015. This Plan (the 2014 Plan) is administered by the Stock Option Committee of the Board of Directors, which has sole discretion, subject to the terms of the Plan, to determine those employees, including executive officers, eligible to receive awards and the amount and type of such awards. The Stock Option Committee also has the authority to interpret the Plan and make all other determinations required in the administration thereof.

The 2014 Plan provides, for, among other things, the granting of Incentive Stock Options as defined under the Internal Revenue Code. Under the Plan, grants of incentive stock options may be made to selected officers and employees, with a term not exceeding ten years from the issue date and at a price not less than the fair market value of the Company’s stock at the date of grant. 310,000 stock option awards were granted under the 2015 Plan for the year ended May 29, 2015.

NOTE 10 – NET INCOME PER SHARE
Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing earnings available to stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects per share amounts that would have resulted if dilutive potential common stock equivalents had been converted to common stock, as prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings per Share”. At May 29, 2015, options on the 310,000 shares were included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options’ exercise price was less than the average market price of the common shares and were therefore dilutive. The dilutive effect of stock options was calculated using the Treasury Stock method. The following reconciles the information used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share:

NOTE 11 – DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Fair value is defined as the quoted market prices for those instruments that are actively traded in financial markets. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are estimated using present value or other valuation techniques. The fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on available market information and judgments about the financial instruments, such as estimates of timing and amount of expected future cash flows. Such estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument, nor do they consider the tax impact of the realization of unrealized gains or losses. In many cases, the fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets, nor can the disclosed value be realized in immediate settlement of the instrument.
The carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents approximate fair value because of the short maturity, generally less than three months, of these instruments.
The carrying value of the Company’s salary continuation plan and accrued liability approximates fair value because present value is used in accruing this liability.
The Company does not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes and has no involvement with forward currency exchange contracts.
NOTE 12– COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Rental expense was $725,947 in 2015 and $1,200,883 in 2014.

The Company has entered into various other short term purchase commitments with suppliers for raw materials in the normal course of business.
The Company is subject to routine litigation and claims incidental to its business. In the opinion of management, such routine litigation and claims should not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

NOTE 13 - CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash equivalents and trade receivables.
The Company maintains deposit relationships with high credit quality financial institutions. The Company’s trade receivables result primarily from its snack food operations and reflect a broad customer base, primarily large grocery store chains located in the Southeastern United States. The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers. As a consequence, concentrations of credit risk are limited.
The Company did not have any major customer write-offs this year that were not covered by credit insurance.

ITEM 9. – CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS
ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
Not Applicable.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our company’s management, under the supervision of and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of May 29, 2015. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of May 29, 2015, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Management’s Assessment on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The management of the company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the company. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
● Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;
● Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and
● Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
The company’s management assessed the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting as of May 29, 2015. In making this assessment, the company’s management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in its Internal Control-Integrated Framework.
Based on management’s assessment, it concluded that, as of May 29, 2015, the company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria set forth.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No change in our internal controls over financial reporting occurred during the fiscal quarter ended May 29, 2015 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
