This supplement (the “Proxy Supplement”) updates the Definitive Proxy Statement, dated December 2, 2022 (the “Proxy Statement”), previously furnished to stockholders of Farmer Bros. Co., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on Thursday, January 12, 2023, at 11:00 a.m., Central Standard Time. This Proxy Supplement is being filed solely to correct an error on the proxy card furnished to stockholders. Specifically, Item 1 of the proxy card regarding the election of directors incorrectly gives the voting options “For,” “Against,” or “Abstain”. Instead, Item 1 should give the voting options “For” or “Withhold.” Accordingly, the Company is providing a revised proxy card to its stockholders as of the record date. Except as described herein, this Proxy Supplement does not modify, amend, supplement, or otherwise affect the Proxy Statement.
