Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On November 4, 2020, Lancaster Colony Corporation issued a press release announcing its results for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

The following information is furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 “Regulation FD Disclosure.”

Our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), in order to drive enhanced accountability and transparency throughout our organization, initiated a review of functional costs that have historically been part of the indirect costs allocated to our two reportable segments. This review was completed as part of our preparation for our upcoming enterprise resource planning system implementation. As a result of this review, our CODM identified certain support functions that would be more appropriately presented within corporate expenses to facilitate the management of the business, including assessing segment performance and allocating resources. These changes were effective July 1, 2020. All historical information has been retroactively conformed to the current presentation and the realigned quarterly business segment information for fiscals 2020 and 2019 is presented in Exhibit 99.2. This Form 8-K does not restate our previously reported consolidated statements for any period. These changes had no effect on previously reported consolidated net sales, operating income, net income or earnings per share.

The information in Items 2.02 and 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K (including the exhibits attached hereto) is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liability of such section, or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
