SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
12 Months Ended
Dec. 31, 2024
Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation — The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of TreeHouse Foods, Inc. and its 100% owned direct and indirect subsidiaries (the "Company," "TreeHouse," "we," "us," or "our"). All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Discontinued Operations The Company completed the sales of its Snack Bars business on September 29, 2023, and a significant portion of its Meal Preparation business on October 3, 2022, both as components of its single plan of disposal from the Company’s strategic review process. These divestitures are presented as discontinued operations and have been excluded from continuing operations for all periods presented. Refer to Note 7 for additional information.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to use judgment to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements, and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents — We consider temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2024, there were no cash and cash equivalents held in foreign jurisdictions, in local currencies. As of December 31, 2023, $27.5 million represents the cash and cash equivalents held in foreign jurisdictions, in local currencies. The Company is exposed to potential risks associated with its cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions. Deposits with these financial institutions may exceed the amount of insurance provided; however, these deposits typically are redeemable upon demand and, therefore, the Company believes the financial risks associated with these financial instruments are minimal.

Accounts Receivable — We provide credit terms to customers in-line with industry standards, perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers, and maintain allowances for potential credit losses based on historical experience. Customer balances are written off after all collection efforts are exhausted. Estimated product returns, which have not been material, are deducted from sales at the time of shipment.

Inventories — Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. We value inventories using standard costs which approximates costs determined on the first-in first-out basis. The costs of finished goods inventories include raw materials, labor, and overhead costs.

Leases — Right-of-use assets and their corresponding lease liabilities are measured and recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. The Company does not record leases with an initial term of 12 months or less on the balance sheet. Expense for these short-term leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The majority of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate; therefore, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments for those leases. The Company has elected the practical expedient to apply discount rates to its lease portfolio based on the portfolio approach. The Company grouped the leases into portfolios by remaining lease term.

When determining the lease term, we include renewal or termination options based on whether or not we are reasonably certain to exercise. For operating leases, lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Finance leases are amortized over the shorter of their lease term or their estimated useful lives, and amortization expense is included in depreciation expense. Fixed lease costs represent the explicitly quantified lease payments prescribed by the lease agreement and are included in the measurement of the right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability. Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate are included in the calculation of the right-of-use asset and lease liability based on the index or rate at lease commencement. Other variable lease payments such as those that depend on the usage or performance of an underlying asset are not included in the measurement of the right-of-use asset or lease liability. The Company has elected the practical expedient to combine lease and nonlease components into a single component for all of its leases.
Property, Plant, and Equipment — Property, plant, and equipment are stated at acquisition cost, plus capitalized interest on borrowings during the actual construction period of major capital projects. Depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
AssetUseful Life
Buildings and improvements
12-40 years
Machinery and equipment
3-15 years
Office furniture and equipment
3-12 years

Building and leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the assets or the remaining useful life of the associated building or lease.

We perform impairment tests when circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Refer to Note 3 and Note 8 for additional information. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance, which do not improve or extend the life of the assets, are expensed as incurred.

Goodwill — Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the purchase price of acquired businesses over the fair market value of their identifiable net assets. Goodwill represents the value the Company expects to achieve through the implementation of operational synergies, the expansion of the business into new or growing segments of the industry, and the addition of new employees. Goodwill is evaluated annually in the fourth quarter or more frequently, if events or changes in circumstances require an interim assessment. We assess goodwill for impairment (as of December 31) at the reporting unit level using income and market approaches, employing significant assumptions regarding growth, discount rates, and profitability for our single reporting unit. Our estimates under the income approach are determined based on a discounted cash flow model. The market approach uses a market multiple methodology employing earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA") and applies a range of multiples to those amounts in determining the indicated fair value. In determining the multiples used in this approach, we obtain the multiples for selected peer companies using the most recent publicly available information. In determining the indicated fair value of our reporting unit, the Company concludes based on the income approach, and uses the market approach to corroborate, as the Company believes the income approach is the most reliable indicator of the fair value of its reporting unit. The resulting value is then compared to the carrying value for its reporting unit to determine if impairment is necessary.

Intangible Assets — Identifiable intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives as follows:
AssetUseful Life
Customer-related
5 to 20 years
Trademarks
10 to 20 years
Formulas/recipes
5 to 7 years
Computer software
3 to 10 years

All amortization expense related to intangible assets is recorded in Amortization expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Indefinite lived trademarks are evaluated for impairment annually in the fourth quarter or more frequently, if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Impairment is indicated when their book value exceeds fair value. If the fair value of an evaluated asset is less than its book value, the asset is written down to fair value, which is generally based on its discounted future cash flows.

Amortizable intangible assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If an evaluation of the undiscounted cash flows indicates impairment, the asset group is impaired to its estimated fair value, which is generally based on discounted future cash flows, and the impairment is allocated to the individual assets within the asset group.

Revenue Recognition — We manufacture and sell food and beverage products to retailers, foodservice distributors, co-manufacturers, and industrial and export channels. Revenue recognition is completed on a point in time basis when product control is transferred to the customer. In general, control transfers to the customer when the product is shipped or delivered to the customer based upon applicable shipping terms. For each contract, the Company considers the transfer of products, each of which is distinct, to be the identified performance obligation generally satisfied within one year. No payment terms beyond one year are granted at contract inception.
Most contracts also include some form of variable consideration. The most common forms of variable consideration include discounts, rebates, and sales returns and allowances. Variable consideration is treated as a reduction in revenue when product revenue is recognized. Depending on the specific type of variable consideration, we use either the expected value or most likely amount method to determine the variable consideration. The Company reviews and updates its estimates and related accruals of variable consideration each period based on the terms of the agreements, historical experience, and any recent changes in the market.  

The Company does not have significant deferred revenue or unbilled receivable balances arising from transactions with customers. We do not capitalize contract inception costs, as contracts are one year or less. The Company does not incur significant fulfillment costs requiring capitalization. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight are included within Selling and distribution expenses and are accounted for as a fulfillment cost as incurred, including shipping and handling costs after control over a product has transferred to a customer. Shipping and handling costs recorded as a component of Selling and distribution expense were approximately $97.7 million, $112.5 million, and $140.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. In addition, any taxes collected on behalf of government authorities are excluded from net sales.

Cost of Sales — Cost of sales represents costs directly related to the manufacture and distribution of our products. Such costs include raw materials, packaging, direct and indirect labor, shipping and handling costs, and overhead which includes depreciation of manufacturing and distribution facilities. Shipping and handling costs included in cost of sales reflect inbound freight, inventory warehouse costs, product loading and handling costs, and costs associated with transporting finished products from our manufacturing facilities to distribution warehouses.

Stock-Based Compensation — We measure compensation expense for our equity awards at their grant date fair value. The resulting expense is recognized over the relevant service period.

Employment-Related Benefits — We provide a range of benefits to our employees, including pension and postretirement benefits to our eligible employees and retirees. We record annual amounts relating to these plans based on calculations specified by GAAP, which include various actuarial assumptions, such as discount rates, assumed investment rates of return, compensation increases, employee turnover rates, and health care cost trend rates. We make modifications to the actuarial assumptions based on plan changes, current rates, and trends when appropriate.

Workers' Compensation — The measurement of the liability for our cost of providing these benefits is largely based upon loss development factors that contemplate a number of variables, including claims history and expected trends. These loss development factors are based on industry factors and, along with the estimated liabilities, are developed by us in consultation with external insurance brokers and actuaries. Changes in loss development factors, claims history, and cost trends could result in substantially different results in the future.

Income Taxes — The provision for income taxes includes federal, foreign, state, and local income taxes currently payable, and those deferred because of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets or liabilities are computed based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. Deferred income tax expenses or credits are based on the changes in the asset or liability from period to period. We account for uncertain tax positions using a "more-likely-than-not" threshold. A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position is recognized if it is more-likely-than-not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position, or the statute of limitations concerning such issues lapses.

Derivative Instruments — The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed by derivative instruments include interest rate risk, commodity price risk, and market risk associated with the unfunded portion of the Company's deferred compensation liability. Derivative contracts are entered into for periods consistent with the related underlying exposure and do not constitute positions independent of those exposures. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. All derivatives are recorded on a gross basis and carried at fair value in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. None of the Company's derivative instruments are accounted for under hedge accounting and the changes in their fair value are recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The cash flows associated with derivative instruments and their related gains and losses are presented in the cash flows from operating activities section of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions — The functional currency of the Company’s foreign operations is the applicable local currency. The functional currency is translated into U.S. dollars for balance sheet accounts using currency exchange rates in effect as of the balance sheet date, and for revenue and expense accounts using a weighted-average exchange rate during the fiscal year. The translation adjustments are deferred as a separate component of Stockholders’ equity in Accumulated other comprehensive loss. Gains or losses resulting from transactions denominated in foreign currencies and intercompany debt that is not of a long-term investment nature are included in Loss (gain) on foreign currency exchange in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Gains or losses resulting from intercompany debt that is designated a long-term investment are recorded as a separate component of Stockholders' equity in Accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Restructuring Expenses — Restructuring charges principally consist of retention, severance, and other employee separation costs, contract termination costs, accelerated depreciation, professional fees, and certain long-lived asset impairments. The Company recognizes restructuring obligations and liabilities for exit and disposal activities at fair value in the period the liability is incurred. One-time employee termination benefits for employee severance costs are expensed evenly starting at the communication date over the period during which the employee is required to render service to receive the severance. Ongoing benefit arrangements for employee severance costs are expensed when they become probable and reasonably estimable. Depreciation expense related to assets that will be disposed of or idled as a part of the restructuring activity is accelerated through the expected date of the asset shut down. Restructuring charges are incurred as a component of Operating income (loss).

Research and Development Costs — We record research and development charges to expense as they are incurred and report them in General and administrative expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Expenditures totaled $13.9 million, $13.0 million, and $12.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

Advertising Costs — Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and reported in Selling and distribution expense of our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Expenditures totaled $1.2 million, $1.7 million, and $1.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share from Continuing Operations — Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing Net income (loss) by the number of weighted average common shares outstanding during the reporting period. The weighted average number of common shares used in the diluted earnings per share calculation is determined using the treasury stock method and includes the incremental effect related to the Company’s outstanding stock-based compensation awards.

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]  
GROWTH, REINVESTMENT, AND RESTRUCTURING PROGRAMS
3. GROWTH, REINVESTMENT, AND RESTRUCTURING PROGRAMS
The Company’s Growth, Reinvestment, and Restructuring activities are part of an enterprise-wide transformation to build long-term sustainable growth and improve profitability for the Company. As part of our Growth, Reinvestment, and Restructuring Programs, we generally incur expenses that qualify as exit and disposal costs under U.S. GAAP. These include severance, employee separation costs, and other exit costs. Severance and employee separation costs primarily relate to cash severance, non-cash severance, including accelerated equity award compensation expense, and other termination benefits. Other exit costs typically relate to lease and contract terminations. We also incur expenses that are an integral component of, and directly attributable to, our Growth, Reinvestment, and Restructuring activities, which do not qualify as exit and disposal costs under U.S. GAAP. These include asset-related costs and other costs. Asset-related costs primarily relate to inventory write-downs, accelerated depreciation, and certain long-lived asset impairments. Other costs primarily relate to start-up costs of new facilities, consulting and professional fees, retention costs, organizational redesign, information technology system implementation, asset relocation costs, and costs to exit facilities or production.

Strategic Growth Initiatives

The Company began executing on its Strategic Growth Initiatives in 2021 and completed the program in 2023. These initiatives were designed to invest in our commercial organization, adapt the supply chain to better support long-term growth opportunities, and further enable the Company to build greater depth in growth categories. The total costs within this program were $115.5 million, comprised of consulting and professional fees, employee-related costs, and investment in information technology. The costs incurred for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were $15.1 million and $40.4 million, respectively.

Ready-to-drink Business Exit

During the second quarter of 2024, the Company made the decision to exit the Ready-to-drink ("RTD") business. The production for the RTD business ceased during the first quarter of 2025. The Company expects the total costs for the decommissioning and disposal of related assets and inventory, as well as other transitioning costs, to be approximately $4.0 million. The costs incurred for the year ended December 31, 2024 were $1.9 million and are recognized in Cost of sales and Other operating expense, net of the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Refer to Note 8 for additional information regarding the impairment of the RTD asset group in the second quarter of 2024.
Facility Closures

During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company completed the closure of its Dallas, Texas Coffee facility in connection with the integration of the Coffee Roasting Capability and transitioned production from Dallas to its Northlake, Texas facility during the first half of 2024. As a result of the Dallas plant closure, an impairment of $4.7 million of property, plant, and equipment was recognized in our Dallas facility asset group in the fourth quarter of 2023. As the Company continued to execute upon integration activities associated with the Coffee Roasting Capability acquisition, the Company exited a distribution center in Grand Prairie, Texas during the third quarter of 2024. As a result of this distribution center exit, an impairment of $0.9 million of Operating lease right-of-use assets was recognized in our Grand Prairie asset group in the third quarter of 2024. These impairment charges are included in Other operating expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Impairment charges are measured by comparing the carrying values of the asset groups to their estimated fair values. The fair value of these assets was based on expected future cash flows using Level 3 inputs under ASC 820.

Additionally, during the first quarter of 2024, the Company announced the closure of its Sioux Falls, South Dakota facility in connection with the integration of the Seasoned Pretzel Capability and transitioned production from Sioux Falls to its Hanover, Pennsylvania facility.

The Company expects the total costs related to these facility closures and associated distribution network optimization to be approximately $14.0 million, and the cumulative costs incurred to date are $12.2 million. The costs incurred for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were $7.2 million and $5.0 million, respectively.

Expenses associated with these activities are recorded in Cost of sales and Other operating expense, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

RECEIVABLES SALES PROGRAM
5. RECEIVABLES SALES PROGRAM

The Company has entered into an agreement to sell certain trade accounts receivable to an unrelated, third-party financial institution at a discount (the "Receivables Sales Program"). The agreement can be terminated by either party with 60 days' notice. The Receivables Sales Program is used by the Company to manage liquidity in a cost-effective manner. The Company has no retained interest in the receivables sold under the Receivables Sales Program; however, under the agreement, the Company does have collection and administrative responsibilities for the sold receivables. Under the Receivables Sales Program, the current operating limit of outstanding accounts receivables to be sold at any time is $397.5 million.

The following table includes the outstanding amount of accounts receivable sold under the Receivables Sales Program and the receivables collected from customers and not remitted to the financial institutions:

Outstanding accounts receivable sold$375.0 $343.8 
Receivables collected and not remitted to financial institutions237.7 200.2 

Receivables sold under the Receivables Sales Program are derecognized from the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet at the time of the sale and the proceeds from such sales are reflected as a component of the change in receivables in the operating activities section of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The receivables collected and not remitted to financial institutions are included in Accounts payable in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The following table summarizes the cash flows of the Company's accounts receivables associated with the Receivables Sales Program. All amounts in the table below include continuing and discontinued operations:

The loss on sale of receivables from continuing operations represents the discount taken by third-party financial institutions and was $9.5 million, $13.9 million, and $6.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively, and is included in Other expense (income), net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company has not recognized any servicing assets or liabilities as of December 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023, as the fair value of the servicing arrangement as well as the fees earned were not material to the financial statements.

Discontinued Operations

Sale of the Snack Bars Business

On September 29, 2023, the Company completed the sale of its Snack Bars business (the "Snack Bars Transaction" or the "Snack Bars Business") to John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc. (the "Snack Bars Business Buyer") for approximately $58.7 million in cash. The Snack Bars Business consisted of manufacturing, packaging, and selling snack bars and operated in the Lakeville, Minnesota plant. The Company classified the proceeds within Net cash provided by investing activities - discontinued operations. The Company recognized a gain on disposal of $1.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2023. The gain on disposal is recognized within Net loss from discontinued operations in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations. This transaction represented a component of the single plan of disposal from the Company’s strategic review process, which also resulted in the divestiture of a significant portion of the Meal Preparation business during the fourth quarter of 2022. The Snack Bars Transaction further advanced the Company's enterprise-wide transformation to simplify its business and build depth around a focused group of high-growth categories.

The Company entered into a Transition Services Agreement ("TSA") with John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc., which was designed to ensure and facilitate an orderly transfer of business operations. The TSA ended in the first quarter of 2024. TSA income is recognized as services are performed, and the income received under the TSA was $0.1 million and $0.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Sale of a Significant Portion of the Meal Preparation Business

On October 3, 2022, the Company completed the sale of a significant portion of the Company’s Meal Preparation business (the "Meal Preparation Business") to two entities affiliated with Investindustrial: Rushmore Investment III LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("US Buyer") and 1373978 B.C., ULC, a British Columbia unlimited liability company ("CA Buyer" and together with US Buyer, the "Buyer"). The closing purchase price was $963.8 million, and during the second quarter of 2023, a $20.3 million adjustment to the purchase price was finalized, resulting in a final purchase price of $943.5 million.

The final purchase price consisted of approximately $522.6 million in cash and approximately $420.9 million in a five-year secured Seller Promissory Note (the "Seller Promissory Note"). On October 19, 2023, the Company received the repayment of its Seller Promissory Note Credit Agreement, which was reflected in Net cash provided by investing activities - discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the year ended December 31, 2023. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $34.5 million and $10.6 million, respectively, within Interest income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations related to the Seller Promissory Note.

The Company recognized expected loss on disposal adjustments of $2.2 million and $128.5 million during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The expected loss on disposal is recognized within Net loss from discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Meal Preparation Business consisted of consumer packaged food manufacturers that operated 14 manufacturing facilities in the United States, Canada, and Italy servicing primarily retail grocery customers. The Meal Preparation Business included 11 categories and sold center of the store grocery and main course meal items, such as pasta, pourable dressings, sauces, red sauces (salsas and pasta sauces), spoonables (mayos and dips), syrups, preserves, dry dinners (macaroni and cheese), dry blends and baking goods, and pie filling as well as pita chips.

The Company entered into a TSA with the Buyer, which was designed to ensure and facilitate an orderly transfer of business operations. The services provided under the TSA included, but were not limited to, IT systems implementation, IT and financial shared services, procurement and order processing, customer service, distribution network separation, and a supply agreement. All TSA services were exited during the second quarter of 2024. Additionally, a $35.0 million credit was provided to the Buyer by TreeHouse to cover initial TSA set-up costs that otherwise would have been incurred by the Buyer ("TSA Credit"). The TSA Credit was included in the fair value of consideration transferred, and it represented deferred income for TreeHouse until the Company incurred the related TSA costs, at which point the deferred income was reduced and TSA income recognized. TSA income is recognized as services are performed, and the income received under the TSA was $0.5 million, $41.1 million, and $22.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. The TSA income is classified within Other operating expense, net in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company has reflected these two transactions as discontinued operations. Unless otherwise noted, amounts and disclosures throughout these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements relate to the Company's continuing operations.

Asset Impairment

We evaluate property, plant, and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets, and finite lived intangible assets for impairment when circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable. Indicators of impairment include deteriorations in operating cash flows, the anticipated sale or disposal of an asset group, and other significant changes in business conditions.

During the second quarter of 2024, as a result of forecasted cash flow losses, the Company made the decision to exit the RTD business. As a result, the Company performed a recoverability assessment over the RTD asset group in the second quarter of 2024, which indicated that the asset group was not recoverable, and we were required to determine the fair value of the business. Our fair value assessment indicated that the carrying value was in excess of the fair value, and an impairment of $19.3 million of property, plant, and equipment was recognized in our RTD beverages asset group. The impairment charge is included in Asset impairment in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Impairment charges are measured by comparing the carrying value of the asset group to its estimated fair value. The fair value of the asset group was based on expected future cash flows using Level 3 inputs under ASC 820. We can provide no assurance regarding the prospect of additional impairment charges in future periods.

The Company assessed the realizability of its deferred tax assets and has recorded a valuation allowance of $31.1 million against certain tax attributes that will more likely than not expire unused. The decrease in the valuation allowance is primarily related to certain domestic and state capital loss carryforwards that have expired unused.
The Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S., Canada, and various U.S. states. In the U.S. federal jurisdiction, the statute of limitations is open for new examinations for the tax years ended December 31, 2021 and forward; for Canadian purposes, the statute of limitations is generally open for new examinations for the tax years ended December 31, 2017 and forward; and for the various U.S. states the statute of limitations is generally open for new examinations for the tax years ended December 31, 2020 and forward.

Our Canadian operations are under exam by the Canadian Revenue Agency ("CRA") for tax years 2012 through 2020. These examinations are expected to extend beyond 2025. The Company has examinations in process with various state taxing authorities, which are expected to be completed in 2025.
During the year, the Company recorded adjustments to its unrecognized tax benefits. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:
 Year Ended December 31,

Reductions resulting from dispositions— — (2.2)
Reductions related to settlements with taxing authorities— — (2.9)
Unrecognized tax benefits ending balance$0.4 $1.1 $1.5 

Unrecognized tax benefits are included in Other long-term liabilities of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Of the amount accrued at December 31, 2024 and 2023, $0.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively, would impact Net income (loss) from continuing operations when settled. Of the amounts accrued at December 31, 2024 and 2023, none relates to unrecognized tax benefits assumed in prior acquisitions, which have been indemnified by the previous owners.

Management estimates that it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by as much as $0.4 million within the next 12 months, primarily as a result of the resolution of audits currently in progress and the lapsing of statutes of limitations. Approximately all of the $0.4 million would affect net income when settled. The timing of cash settlement, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated for uncertain tax benefits.
The Company recognizes interest (income) expense and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, the Company recognized net interest and penalties of $(0.3) million, $(0.1) million, and $(0.1) million, respectively. These amounts are primarily the result of statute lapses and are recognized in income tax expense from continuing operations. The Company has accrued approximately $0.1 million and $0.4 million for the payment of interest and penalties at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, of which none are indemnified as of December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Credit Agreement — On December 1, 2017, the Company entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement"). The senior unsecured credit facility includes a revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility" or the "Revolver") and two term loans. The Company has executed six amendments to the Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2024.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt — During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company paid down debt of $500.0 million which consisted of $174.8 million on Term Loan A and $325.2 million on Term Loan A-1 and reduced the revolving credit commitment from $750.0 million to an aggregate amount of $500.0 million. The Company incurred a loss on extinguishment of debt totaling $4.5 million representing the write-off of deferred financing costs in connection with the debt prepayment and revolving credit commitment reduction in October 2022.

Revolving Credit Facility — As of December 31, 2024, the Company had remaining availability of $467.7 million under its $500.0 million Revolving Credit Facility, and there were $32.3 million in letters of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility that were issued but undrawn, which have been included as a reduction to the calculation of available credit. Under the Credit Agreement, the Revolving Credit Facility matures on March 26, 2026.

Interest is payable quarterly or, if earlier, at the end of the applicable interest period in arrears on any outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. The interest rates applicable to the Revolving Credit Facility are based upon the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio or the Company’s Corporate Credit Rating, whichever results in lower pricing, and are determined by either (i) Term SOFR, plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, plus a margin ranging from 1.20% to 1.70%, or (ii) a Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus a margin ranging from 0.20% to 0.70%. The unused fee on the Revolving Credit Facility is also based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio or the Company’s Corporate Credit Rating, whichever results in lower pricing, and accrues at a rate ranging from 0.20% to 0.35%.
The Credit Agreement is fully and unconditionally, as well as jointly and severally, guaranteed by our 100% owned direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries: Bay Valley Foods, LLC; Cottage Bakery, Inc.; Linette Quality Chocolates, Inc.; Pickles Manufacturing LLC; Protenergy Holdings, Inc.; Protenergy Natural Foods, Inc.; Ralcorp Frozen Bakery Products, Inc.; Refrigerated Dough, Inc.; Sturm Foods, Inc.; TreeHouse Foods Services, LLC; TreeHouse Private Brands, Inc.; and certain other domestic subsidiaries that may become guarantors in the future, which are collectively known as the "Guarantor Subsidiaries." The Credit Agreement contains various financial and restrictive covenants and requires that the Company maintain a consolidated net leverage ratio of no greater than 4.50 to 1.0. The Credit Agreement also contains cross-default provisions which could result in the acceleration of payments in the event TreeHouse or the Guarantor Subsidiaries (i) fails to make a payment when due in respect of any indebtedness or guarantee having an aggregate principal amount greater than $75.0 million or (ii) fails to observe or perform any other agreement or condition related to such indebtedness or guarantee as a result of which the holder(s) of such debt are permitted to accelerate the payment of such debt.

Term Loan A — On December 1, 2017, the Company entered into a $500 million term loan and amended the loan to extend the maturity date to March 26, 2028. The interest rates applicable to Term Loan A are based upon the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio or the Company’s Corporate Credit Rating, whichever results in lower pricing, and are determined by either (i) Term SOFR, plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, plus a margin ranging from 1.675% to 2.175%, or (ii) a Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus a margin ranging from 0.675% to 1.175%. As a result of the principal prepayment of $174.8 million on Term Loan A in October 2022, principal amortization payments are no longer due on a quarterly basis, and the remaining principal balance is due at maturity. Interest is payable quarterly or, if earlier, at the end of the applicable interest period in arrears on any outstanding borrowings under Term Loan A. Term Loan A is subject to substantially the same covenants as the Revolving Credit Facility, and also has the same Guarantor Subsidiaries.

Term Loan A-1 — On December 1, 2017, the Company entered into a term loan and amended the loan amount to $930 million and extended the maturity date to March 26, 2026. The interest rates applicable to Term Loan A-1 are the same as those applicable to the Revolving Credit Facility (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, the unused fee). As a result of the principal prepayment of $325.2 million on Term Loan A-1 in October 2022, principal amortization payments are no longer due on a quarterly basis, and the remaining principal balance is due at maturity. Interest is payable quarterly or, if earlier, at the end of the applicable interest period in arrears on any outstanding borrowing under Term Loan A-1. Term Loan A-1 is subject to substantially the same covenants as the Revolving Credit Facility, and has the same Guarantor Subsidiaries.

2028 Notes — On September 9, 2020, the Company completed its public offering of $500 million aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Notes. The 2028 Notes pay interest at the rate of 4.000% per annum and mature on September 1, 2028. Interest is payable on the 2028 Notes on March 1 and September 1 of each year.

The Company may redeem some or all of the 2028 Notes at redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. Subject to certain limitations, in the event of a change of control of the Company, the Company will be required to make an offer to purchase the 2028 Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the 2028 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase.

The Company issued the 2028 Notes pursuant to a single base Indenture among the Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries, and the Trustee. The Indenture provides, among other things, that the 2028 Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of the Company. The Company’s payment obligations under the 2028 Notes are fully and unconditionally, as well as joint and severally, guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Guarantor Subsidiaries, in addition to any future domestic subsidiaries that guarantee or become borrowers under its credit facility or guarantee certain other indebtedness incurred by the Company or its restricted subsidiaries.

The Indenture governing the 2028 Notes contains customary event of default provisions (including, without limitation, defaults relating to the failure to pay at final maturity or the acceleration of certain other indebtedness). If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the trustee under the Indenture or holders of at least 25% in principal amount of such notes may declare the principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all such notes to be due and payable. The Indenture also contains restrictive covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of the Company and the Guarantor Subsidiaries to: (i) incur additional indebtedness and issue certain preferred shares, (ii) make certain distributions, investments and other restricted payments, (iii) sell certain assets, (iv) agree to restrictions on the ability of restricted subsidiaries to make payments to the Company, (v) create liens, (vi) merge, consolidate or sell substantially all of the Company’s assets (vii) enter into certain transactions with affiliates, and (viii) engage in certain sale and leaseback transactions. The foregoing limitations are subject to exceptions as set forth in the Indenture. In addition, if in the future, the 2028 Notes have an investment grade credit rating by both Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. and Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, certain of these covenants will, thereafter, no longer apply to the 2028 Notes for so long as the 2028 Notes are rated investment grade by the two rating agencies.
Interest Rate Swap Agreements — As of December 31, 2024, the Company had entered into long-term interest rate swap agreements to mitigate its variable rate debt exposures. The notional amount of these agreements is $1,750.0 million as of December 31, 2024 and $1,175.0 million as of December 31, 2023. Refer to Note 20 for additional information regarding the Company's interest rate swap agreements.

Fair Value At December 31, 2024, the aggregate fair value of the Company's total debt was $1,359.8 million and its carrying value was $1,405.0 million. At December 31, 2023, the aggregate fair value of the Company's total debt was $1,350.5 million and its carrying value was $1,405.0 million. The fair values of Term Loan A and Term Loan A-1 were estimated using present value techniques and market-based interest rates and credit spreads. The fair value of the Company's 2028 Notes was estimated based on quoted market prices for similar instruments due to their infrequent trading volume. Accordingly, the fair value of the Company's debt is classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy.

Finance Lease Obligations and Other — The Company owes $4.1 million related to finance leases. Finance lease obligations represent machinery and equipment financing obligations, which are payable in monthly installments of principal and interest, and are collateralized by the related assets financed. Refer to Note 4 for additional information regarding the Company's finance leases.

Deferred Financing Costs — As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, deferred financing costs of $6.7 million and $9.2 million were included as a direct deduction from outstanding long-term debt. Fees associated with the Revolving Credit Facility are presented in Other assets, net. Deferred financing costs are amortized over their estimated useful lives based on the terms of their respective agreements.

Subsequent Event — On January 17, 2025, the Company entered into the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of January 17, 2025 (the "New Credit Agreement"), among the Company, the lenders from time to time party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer.

The New Credit Agreement amends, restates and replaces the Company’s existing Credit Agreement, dated as of December 1, 2017 (as amended from time to time prior to January 17, 2025), pursuant to which the Company obtained a $500.0 million revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Facility"), a $500.0 million term A loan (the "Term A Loan") and a $900.0 million tranche A-1 term loan (the "Tranche A-1 Term Loan" and, together with the Term A Loan, the "Term Loans"). Pursuant to the New Credit Agreement, the Company (i) continued and extended the maturity of the Revolving Facility and the Term Loans, (ii) decreased the aggregate size of the Term A Loan to $480.0 million and (iii) decreased the aggregate size of the Tranche A-1 Term Loan to $425.0 million.

Both the Revolving Facility and the Term Loans mature on January 17, 2030. The initial pricing for the Revolving Facility and the Tranche A-1 Term Loan is determined by Term SOFR plus a margin of 2.00%. Thereafter, the Revolving Facility and the Tranche A-1 Term Loan will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) Term SOFR plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.50% based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio or (ii) a Base Rate (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) plus a margin ranging from 0.25% to 1.50% based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio. The Company will also pay an unused fee on the Revolving Facility at a rate ranging from 0.20% to 0.40% based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio, with the initial unused fee set at 0.30%. The Revolving Facility includes sub-facilities for swing line loans and letters of credit.

The initial pricing for the Term A Loan is determined by Term SOFR plus a margin of 2.275%. Thereafter, the Term A Loan will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) Term SOFR plus a margin ranging from 1.525% to 2.775% based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio or (ii) a Base Rate (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) plus a margin ranging from 0.525% to 1.775% based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio; provided that the Company and Term A Loan lenders may agree to a quoted fixed rate for the Term A Loan at a future date.

The New Credit Agreement contains substantially the same covenants as the prior Credit Agreement other than upsizing of the non-Loan Party (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) investment basket and addition or modification of covenants relating to certain regulatory requirements (including farm credit act). The covenants include a financial covenant requiring that the Company maintains a certain consolidated net leverage ratio and other covenants, including with respect to limitations on liens, investments, indebtedness, mergers, consolidations and acquisitions, dispositions of assets, restricted payments, changes in the nature of the Company’s business, transactions with affiliates, burdensome agreements, use of proceeds, sale and leaseback transactions and amendments to organizational documents. The New Credit Agreement also contains customary representations, warranties and events of default.
The Company’s obligations under the New Credit Agreement are guaranteed by substantially all of its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries.

Common Stock — The Company has authorized 90.0 million shares of common stock with a par value of $0.01 per share. No dividends have been declared or paid.

Share Repurchase Authorization On November 13, 2024, the Company announced that the Board of Directors (the "Board") authorized a $400 million stock repurchase program. This authorization is open ended and replaced the Company's previous stock repurchase authorization of $400 million, which was approved by the Board on November 2, 2017 (the "Prior Authorization"). The Company had repurchased approximately $376.5 million of shares of the Company’s common stock under the Prior Authorization. Any repurchases under the program may be made by means of open market transactions, negotiated block transactions, or otherwise, including pursuant to a repurchase plan administered in accordance with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The size and timing of any repurchases will depend on price, market and business conditions, and other factors. The Company has the ability to make discretionary repurchases up to an annual cap of $150 million, and $393.5 million remained available under the $400 million total authorization as of December 31, 2024.

(1)Incremental shares from equity awards are computed by the treasury stock method. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the weighted average common shares outstanding is the same for the computations of both basic and diluted shares outstanding because the Company had a net loss from continuing operations for the period. Equity awards, excluded from our computation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive, were 0.6 million, 1.1 million, and 1.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
15. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Board of Directors adopted, and the Company’s Stockholders approved, the "TreeHouse Foods, Inc. Equity and Incentive Plan" (the "Plan"). Under the Plan, the Compensation Committee may grant awards of various types of compensation, including stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units, other types of stock-based awards, and other cash-based compensation. The maximum number of shares authorized to be awarded under the Plan is approximately 22.5 million, of which approximately 7.8 million remained available at December 31, 2024.
Total compensation expense related to stock-based payments and the related income tax benefit recognized in Net income (loss) from continuing operations are as follows:

The Company estimates that certain key executives and all directors will complete the required service conditions associated with their awards. For all other employees, the Company estimates its forfeiture rate based on historical experience.

All amounts below include continuing and discontinued operations.

Stock Options — Stock options granted under the plan during 2022 have a three year vesting schedule, vest one-third on the second anniversary of the grant date and two-thirds on the third anniversary of the grant date, and expire ten years from the grant date. Stock options are generally only granted to employees and non-employee directors.

Unrecognized compensation costs related to nonvested options totaled $0.5 million at December 31, 2024 and are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.4 years. There was no tax benefit recognized from stock option exercises for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022.
Stock options are valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock price. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the stock options is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant. We based our expected term on the simplified method as described under the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107. The weighted average assumptions used to calculate the value of the stock option awards granted are presented as follows (no stock options were granted in 2024 and 2023):

Restricted Stock Units — Employee restricted stock unit awards generally vest based on the passage of time in approximately three equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date.

Non-employee director restricted stock units generally vest on the first anniversary of the grant date. Certain non-employee directors have elected to defer receipt of their awards until either their departure from the Board of Directors or a specified date beyond the first anniversary of the grant date.

Unrecognized compensation costs related to nonvested restricted stock units are approximately $17.9 million as of December 31, 2024 and will be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.7 years. The grant date fair value of the awards is equal to the Company's closing stock price on the grant date.
Performance Units — Performance unit awards are granted to certain members of management. These awards contain both service and performance conditions, and for certain executive members of management, a market condition, in each case as described below.

For awards granted in years prior to 2020, for each year of the three-year performance period, one-third of the units will accrue, multiplied by a predefined percentage generally between 0% and 200%, depending on the achievement of certain operating performance measures. Accrued shares are not earned until the end of the full three-year performance period.
For performance unit awards granted in 2020 through 2023, performance goals are set and measured annually with one-quarter of the units eligible to accrue for each year in the three-year performance period. Accrued shares are earned at the end of each performance period but remain subject to forfeiture until the third anniversary of the grant date. Additionally, for the cumulative three-year performance period, one-quarter of the units will accrue. For both the annual and cumulative shares, the earned shares are equal to the number of units granted multiplied by a predefined percentage generally between 0% and 200%, depending on the achievement of certain operating performance measures.
For performance unit awards granted in 2024, performance goals were established upfront and will be measured over a cumulative three-year performance period. The units will accrue each month, multiplied by a predefined percentage between 0% and 200%, depending on the achievement of certain operating performance measures. Accrued shares are not earned until the end of the full three-year performance period and remain subject to forfeiture until the third anniversary of the grant date.
For performance unit awards granted in 2021 through 2024, certain executive members of management received awards that were measured using a relative total shareholder return ("TSR") market condition over a three-year performance goal. The units will accrue, multiplied by a predefined percentage between 0% and 150% for years 2021 through 2023 and between 0% and 200% for 2024, for the relative TSR measure, depending on the achievement attainment over the three-year performance period based on the Company’s absolute annualized TSR relative to the annualized TSR of a Peer Group. The fair value of the portion of the awards based on relative TSR was valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model with a grant date fair value of $37.56 on approximately 35,800 units granted in 2024.
During the second quarter of 2022, the Company made grants to certain of the Company’s named executive officers and certain other executive officers of performance-based restricted stock units (the "PBRSU Awards"). The PBRSU Awards included a relative TSR market condition over a two-year performance period beginning on the date of grant. The units accrued over the two-year performance period and were multiplied by a predefined percentage between 0% to 450% for the relative TSR measure, depending on the achievement attainment over the two-year performance period based on Company’s absolute annualized TSR relative to the annualized TSR of the S&P Food & Beverage Select Industry Index (the "Index"). The fair value of the awards was valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model with a weighted average grant-date fair value of $58.36 on approximately 239,300 units granted in 2022. The PBRSU Awards vested in the second quarter of 2024. Over the two-year performance period, the achievement attainment percentage was 0%, resulting in no payout of the awards.

These awards will be converted to stock or cash, at the discretion of the Compensation Committee, generally, on the third anniversary of the grant date with the exception of the PBRSU Awards on the second anniversary. The Company intends to settle these awards in stock and has the shares available to do so.

Performance unit awards with market conditions are valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock price, average Peer Group stock price, or the total return value of the Index. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant with a term equivalent to the expected term of the award. The expected term is the time period from the grant date to the end of the performance period. The weighted average assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulations were as follows:

Retirement Benefits [Abstract]  
EMPLOYEE PENSION AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS
17. EMPLOYEE PENSION AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS
Defined Contribution Plans — Certain of our union and non-union employees participate in savings and profit sharing plans. These plans generally provide for salary reduction contributions to the plans on behalf of the participants of between 1% and 80% of a participant’s annual compensation and provide for employer matching and non-matching contributions. The Company established tax-qualified defined contribution plans and group registered savings plans to manage the assets. On a continuing operations basis, for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, the Company made matching and non-matching contributions to the plans of $16.0 million, $14.0 million, and $14.3 million, respectively.
Pension and Postretirement Benefits — Certain employees and retirees participate in pension and other postretirement benefit plans. Employee benefit plan obligations and expenses included in the Consolidated Financial Statements are determined based on plan assumptions, employee demographic data, including years of service and compensation, benefits and claims paid, and employer contributions. The information below includes the activities of the Company's continuing and discontinued operations.

Pension benefits for eligible salaried and non-union employees were frozen in 2002 for years of creditable service. For these employees, incremental pension benefits are only earned for changes in compensation affecting final average pay. Pension benefits earned by union employees covered by collective bargaining agreements, but not participating in multiemployer pension plans, are earned based on creditable years of service and the specified benefit amounts negotiated as part of the collective bargaining agreements. The Company’s funding policy provides that annual contributions to the pension plan master trust will be at least equal to the minimum amounts required by Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. The Company estimates that its 2025 contributions to its pension plans will be $1.9 million. The measurement date for the defined benefit pension plans is December 31.

Certain employees participate in benefit programs that provide certain health care and life insurance benefits for retired employees and their eligible dependents. The plans are unfunded. The Company estimates that its 2025 contributions to its postretirement benefit plans will be $1.2 million. The measurement date for the other postretirement benefit plans is December 31.

The Company established a tax-qualified pension plan and master trust to manage the portion of the pension plan assets related to eligible salaried, non-union, and union employees not covered by a multiemployer pension plan. We also retain investment consultants to assist our Benefit Plans Committee with formulating a long-term investment policy for the master trust. The expected long-term rate of return on assets is based on projecting long-term market returns for the various asset classes in which the plan’s assets are invested, weighted by the target asset allocations. The estimated ranges are primarily based on observations of historical asset returns and their historical volatility. In determining the expected returns, we also consider consensus forecasts of certain market and economic factors that influence returns, such as inflation, gross domestic product trends, and dividend yields. Active management of the plan assets may result in adjustments to the historical returns. We review the rate of return assumption annually.

Our investment objectives are to minimize the volatility of the value of our pension assets relative to our pension liabilities and to ensure assets are sufficient to pay plan benefits. We have a broad pension de-risking strategy intended to align the characteristics of our assets relative to our liabilities. The strategy targets investments depending on the funded status of the obligation. We anticipate this strategy will continue in future years and will be dependent upon market conditions and plan characteristics.

In October 2023, the pension plans completed an annuity lift-out, a transaction that provided for the purchase of an annuity contract to fund pension plan annuities of retirees, as part of our de-risking strategy. This annuity lift-out impacted approximately 1,300 retirees, as well as reduced $33.5 million in pension obligations and $33.5 million in plan assets which were transferred to an insurance company. The transfer of plan assets is considered to be a lump sum settlement payment that reduced the pension plan’s projected benefit obligation in 2023.

At December 31, 2024, our master trust was invested as follows: investments in fixed income were at 61%; investments in equity securities were at 27%; investments in hedge funds were at 4%; investments in real estate were at 2%; and cash and cash equivalents were 6%. The allocation of our master trust investments as of December 31, 2024 is generally consistent with the targets set forth by our Benefit Plans Committee.
Pension plan assets are categorized based on the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1: Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted priced included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability through corroboration with observable market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs, which valued based on our estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liability.
Investments that are valued using net asset value (NAV) (or its equivalent) practical expedient have not been categorized in the fair value hierarchy but are included to reconcile to the amounts presented in our Obligations and Funded Status table.
The fair value of the Company’s pension plan assets at December 31, 2024 and 2023 is as follows:

Multiemployer Pension Plans - The Company contributes to several multiemployer pension plans on behalf of employees covered by collective bargaining agreements. These plans are administered jointly by management and union representatives and cover substantially all full-time and certain part-time union employees who are not covered by other plans. The risks of participating in multiemployer plans are different from single-employer plans in the following aspects: (1) assets contributed to the multiemployer plan by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers, (2) if a participating employer stops contributing to the plan, the unfunded obligations of the plan may be borne by the remaining participating employers, and (3) if the Company chooses to stop participating in a multiemployer plan, we could, under certain circumstances, be liable for unfunded vested benefits or other expenses of jointly administered union/management plans. 

The Company’s participation in multiemployer pension plans is outlined in the table below. The EIN column provides the Employer Identification Number ("EIN") of each plan. Unless otherwise noted, the most recent Pension Protection Act zone status available in December 31, 2024 and 2023 is for the plan’s years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022, respectively. The zone status is based on information that the Company received from the plan, and is certified by the plan’s actuary. Among other factors, plans in the red zone are considered to be in "critical status" and are generally less than 65% funded, plans in the yellow zone are 65% to 80% funded, and plans in the green zone are at least 80% funded. The FIP column indicates plans for which a financial improvement plan ("FIP") is either pending or has been implemented. The Surcharge Imposed column indicates whether the Company contribution rate for its fiscal year that ended on December 31, 2024 included an amount in addition to the contribution rate specified in the applicable collective bargaining agreement, as imposed by a plan in "critical status," in accordance with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The last column lists the expiration dates of the collective bargaining agreements to which the plans are subject.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Griddle Product Recall and Related Costs

On October 18, 2024, the Company initiated a voluntary recall of certain frozen waffle products produced at its Brantford, Ontario, Canada facility, and on October 22, 2024, the Company expanded its voluntary recall to include all products manufactured at the Brantford facility that are still within their shelf-life. These frozen griddle products may have had the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized incremental charges of $36.6 million related to the product recall. These charges were comprised of product returns as a reduction in Net sales of $21.0 million, and inventory write-offs, plant shutdown charges, and other costs, including logistics resulting in an impact of $15.6 million in Cost of sales within the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of December 31, 2024, a $9.6 million product recall liability is included within Accrued expenses in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company is seeking to recover the recall-related costs through its insurance coverage, and such recoveries are recorded in the period in which the recoveries are determined to be probable of realization. The amount of the product recall liability represents the probable and reasonably estimable costs directly associated with the recall. However, the total actual costs could differ materially due to uncertainties related to customer return rates, additional recall expenses, litigation, or other unforeseen events.

Broth Product Recall and Related Costs

On September 22, 2023, the Company initiated a voluntary recall of certain broth products produced at its Cambridge, Maryland facility. These broth products may have had the potential for non-pathogenic microbial contamination due to lack of sterility assurance. During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company recognized a $10.0 million insurance recovery in Cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company is seeking to recover additional recall-related costs through its insurance coverage, and such recoveries are recorded in the period in which the recoveries are determined to be probable of realization.

Shareholder Derivative Actions

The Company, as nominal defendant, and certain of its former officers are parties to a consolidated shareholder derivative suit captioned Wells and the City of Ann Arbor Employees’ Retirement System v. Reed, et al., Case Nos. 2016-CH-16359 and 2019-CH-06753 (Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois).

The consolidated lawsuit alleges that TreeHouse, under the authority and control of the individual defendants: (i) made certain false and misleading statements regarding the Company's business, operations, and future prospects; and (ii) failed to disclose that (a) the Company's private label business was underperforming; (b) the Company's Flagstone Foods business was underperforming; (c) the Company's acquisition strategy was underperforming; (d) the Company had overstated its full-year 2016 guidance; and (e) TreeHouse's statements lacked reasonable basis. The complaints allege, among other things, that these actions artificially inflated the market price of TreeHouse common stock and resulted in harm to the Company.
On August 26, 2022, plaintiffs in the consolidated Wells case filed a second consolidated amended complaint, which was dismissed in its entirety with prejudice on March 15, 2023. The plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal on March 16, 2023. On March 22, 2024, the Appellate Court reversed the state trial court’s dismissal of the consolidated amended complaint and remanded to the state trial court for further proceedings. On October 1, 2024, the parties advised the state trial court of their agreement in principle to settle the action, and on the same day, the court entered an order staying all proceedings pending the submission of a motion for preliminary settlement approval. On December 18, 2024, the court entered an order preliminarily approving the settlement, and set a final settlement approval hearing on March 10, 2025.

Other Claims

In February 2014, TreeHouse, along with its 100% owned subsidiaries, Bay Valley Foods, LLC and Sturm Foods, Inc., filed suit against Keurig Dr. Pepper Inc.'s wholly-owned subsidiary, Keurig Green Mountain ("KGM"), in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York captioned TreeHouse Foods, Inc. et al. v. Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc. et al. asserting claims under the federal antitrust laws, various state antitrust laws and unfair competition statutes, contending that KGM had monopolized alleged markets for single serve coffee brewers and single serve coffee pods. The Company is seeking monetary damages, declaratory relief, injunctive relief, and attorneys' fees, which monetary damages, in August 2020, were estimated by the Company's economic expert to be in the range of $719.4 million to $1.5 billion for the Company's antitrust claims, before trebling, and $358.0 million for a subset of the Company's false advertising claims, without accounting for discretionary trebling by the Court. The matter remains pending, with summary judgment motions fully briefed. On March 28, 2022, the Magistrate Judge issued an Opinion and Order granting in part and denying in part the TreeHouse sanctions motion against KGM and denying the KGM sanctions motion against TreeHouse. KGM has appealed a portion of the Opinion and Order awarding sanctions to the Company. On January 3, 2025, the Court denied KGM's motions to exclude the opinions of the Company's experts and granted Plaintiffs' motion to exclude the opinion of KGM's sham litigation expert. KGM is denying the allegations made by the Company in the litigation. The Company has not recorded any recovery amount in its Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2024.

In addition, the Company is party in the ordinary course of business to certain claims, litigation, audits, and investigations. The Company will record an accrual for a loss contingency when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company believes it has established adequate accruals for liabilities that are probable and reasonably estimable that may be incurred in connection with any such currently pending or threatened matter. In the Company's opinion, the eventual resolution of such matters, either individually or in the aggregate, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, litigation is inherently unpredictable and resolutions or dispositions of claims or lawsuits by settlement or otherwise could have an adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the reporting period in which any such resolution or disposition occurs.

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

Dec. 31, 2024
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
20. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Interest Rate Swap Agreements — The Company manages its exposure to changes in interest rates by optimizing the use of variable-rate and fixed-rate debt and by utilizing interest rate swaps to hedge our exposure to changes in interest rates, to reduce the volatility of our financing costs, and to achieve a desired proportion of fixed versus floating-rate debt, based on current and projected market conditions.
The Company has entered into long-term interest rate swap agreements to lock into a fixed interest rate base that have a notional value of $1,750.0 million as of December 31, 2024 and $1,175.0 million as of December 31, 2023. Under the terms of the agreements, the weighted average fixed interest rate base for the $875.0 million of interest rate swaps maturing on February 28, 2025 is approximately 2.91%, and for the $875.0 million of interest rate swaps effective February 28, 2025 through February 29, 2028, is approximately 3.69%. 

Commodity Contracts — Certain commodities the Company uses in the production and distribution of its products are exposed to market price risk. The Company utilizes derivative contracts to manage this risk. The majority of commodity forward contracts are not derivatives, and those that are generally qualify for the normal purchases and normal sales scope exception under the guidance for derivative instruments and hedging activities and, therefore, are not subject to its provisions. For derivative commodity contracts that do not qualify for the normal purchases and normal sales scope exception, the Company accounts for the contracts as derivatives.
The Company’s derivative commodity contracts may include contracts for diesel, oil, plastics, resin, and other commodity contracts that do not meet the requirements for the normal purchases and normal sales scope exception. Diesel contracts are used to manage the Company’s risk associated with the underlying cost of diesel fuel used to deliver products. Contracts for oil, plastics, and resin are used to manage the Company’s risk associated with the underlying commodity cost of a significant component used in packaging materials. Other commodity contracts that are derivatives that do not meet the normal purchases and normal sales scope exception are used to manage the price risk associated with raw material costs. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the notional value of the commodity contracts outstanding was $61.5 million and $24.4 million, respectively. These commodity contracts have maturities expiring throughout 2025 as of December 31, 2024.

Total Return Swap Contract The Company had an economic hedge program that used a total return swap contract to hedge the market risk associated with the unfunded portion of the Company's deferred compensation liability. The total return swap contract trades generally had a duration of one month and were rebalanced and re-hedged at the end of each monthly term. The total return swap contract was measured at fair value and recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, with changes in value being recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had no outstanding and unsettled total return swap contracts.

The following table identifies the fair value of each derivative instrument:

Cybersecurity Risk Management Processes for Assessing, Identifying, and Managing Threats [Text Block]
Risk Management and Strategy

Our cybersecurity program and controls are designed to assess, identify, and manage material risks from cybersecurity threats, and protect and preserve the confidentiality, integrity, and continued availability of all information owned by, or in the care of, the Company. Cybersecurity risk is incorporated into the Company’s broader Enterprise Risk Management program, and is managed in alignment with our business objectives and operational needs.

Our information systems are continuously monitored for security threats and anomalies, and our incident response plan and processes are built to enable us to identify, contain, eradicate, and recover from security incidents in a coordinated fashion, helping maintain the function and security of our IT assets, information resources, and business operations. We have formed relationships with various third-party experts and advisors to provide support in the event of a cybersecurity incident. Additionally, we have established various elements of risk management to mitigate costs associated with cybersecurity incidents.

We strive to maintain a strong culture of cybersecurity awareness across the organization by conducting regular information security awareness training, and simulation exercises, for employees, and providing access to related educational materials.

We oversee and identify material risks from cybersecurity threats associated with our use of third-party service providers, perform third party security assessments of select third party service providers, and employ techniques to protect our organization in the event our third parties experience a cybersecurity incident.

We employ controls to continuously monitor and assess the information gathered by our security tools, services to identify gaps, exposures, or weaknesses in our overall security posture, and engage reputable external specialists to provide independent assessments of our cybersecurity program, and response preparedness. Further, the Company’s enterprise level IT general controls are audited annually.

Impact of Cybersecurity Risks and Threats
We are not aware of having experienced any risks from cybersecurity threats or incidents through the date of this Report that have materially affected the Company, its business strategy, results of operation or financial condition or are reasonably likely to have such an effect over the long term. This does not guarantee that future incidents or threats will not have a material impact or that we are not currently the subject of an undetected incident or threat that may have such an impact.
Additional information on cybersecurity risks we face is discussed in Part I, Item 1A – Risk Factors, which should be read in conjunction with the foregoing information.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)
12 Months Ended
Dec. 31, 2024
Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation Basis of Presentation — The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of TreeHouse Foods, Inc. and its 100% owned direct and indirect subsidiaries (the "Company," "TreeHouse," "we," "us," or "our"). All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Discontinued Operations Discontinued Operations The Company completed the sales of its Snack Bars business on September 29, 2023, and a significant portion of its Meal Preparation business on October 3, 2022, both as components of its single plan of disposal from the Company’s strategic review process. These divestitures are presented as discontinued operations and have been excluded from continuing operations for all periods presented.
Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates — The preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to use judgment to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements, and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and Cash Equivalents — We consider temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2024, there were no cash and cash equivalents held in foreign jurisdictions, in local currencies. As of December 31, 2023, $27.5 million represents the cash and cash equivalents held in foreign jurisdictions, in local currencies. The Company is exposed to potential risks associated with its cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions. Deposits with these financial institutions may exceed the amount of insurance provided; however, these deposits typically are redeemable upon demand and, therefore, the Company believes the financial risks associated with these financial instruments are minimal.
Accounts Receivable Accounts Receivable — We provide credit terms to customers in-line with industry standards, perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers, and maintain allowances for potential credit losses based on historical experience. Customer balances are written off after all collection efforts are exhausted. Estimated product returns, which have not been material, are deducted from sales at the time of shipment.
Inventories
Inventories — Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. We value inventories using standard costs which approximates costs determined on the first-in first-out basis. The costs of finished goods inventories include raw materials, labor, and overhead costs.
Leases
Leases — Right-of-use assets and their corresponding lease liabilities are measured and recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. The Company does not record leases with an initial term of 12 months or less on the balance sheet. Expense for these short-term leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The majority of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate; therefore, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments for those leases. The Company has elected the practical expedient to apply discount rates to its lease portfolio based on the portfolio approach. The Company grouped the leases into portfolios by remaining lease term.

When determining the lease term, we include renewal or termination options based on whether or not we are reasonably certain to exercise. For operating leases, lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Finance leases are amortized over the shorter of their lease term or their estimated useful lives, and amortization expense is included in depreciation expense. Fixed lease costs represent the explicitly quantified lease payments prescribed by the lease agreement and are included in the measurement of the right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability. Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate are included in the calculation of the right-of-use asset and lease liability based on the index or rate at lease commencement. Other variable lease payments such as those that depend on the usage or performance of an underlying asset are not included in the measurement of the right-of-use asset or lease liability. The Company has elected the practical expedient to combine lease and nonlease components into a single component for all of its leases.
Property, Plant, and Equipment
Property, Plant, and Equipment — Property, plant, and equipment are stated at acquisition cost, plus capitalized interest on borrowings during the actual construction period of major capital projects. Depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
AssetUseful Life
Buildings and improvements
12-40 years
Machinery and equipment
3-15 years
Office furniture and equipment
3-12 years

Building and leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the assets or the remaining useful life of the associated building or lease.

We perform impairment tests when circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Refer to Note 3 and Note 8 for additional information. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance, which do not improve or extend the life of the assets, are expensed as incurred.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill — Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the purchase price of acquired businesses over the fair market value of their identifiable net assets. Goodwill represents the value the Company expects to achieve through the implementation of operational synergies, the expansion of the business into new or growing segments of the industry, and the addition of new employees. Goodwill is evaluated annually in the fourth quarter or more frequently, if events or changes in circumstances require an interim assessment. We assess goodwill for impairment (as of December 31) at the reporting unit level using income and market approaches, employing significant assumptions regarding growth, discount rates, and profitability for our single reporting unit. Our estimates under the income approach are determined based on a discounted cash flow model. The market approach uses a market multiple methodology employing earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA") and applies a range of multiples to those amounts in determining the indicated fair value. In determining the multiples used in this approach, we obtain the multiples for selected peer companies using the most recent publicly available information. In determining the indicated fair value of our reporting unit, the Company concludes based on the income approach, and uses the market approach to corroborate, as the Company believes the income approach is the most reliable indicator of the fair value of its reporting unit. The resulting value is then compared to the carrying value for its reporting unit to determine if impairment is necessary.

Intangible Assets — Identifiable intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives as follows:
AssetUseful Life
Customer-related
5 to 20 years
Trademarks
10 to 20 years
Formulas/recipes
5 to 7 years
Computer software
3 to 10 years

All amortization expense related to intangible assets is recorded in Amortization expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Indefinite lived trademarks are evaluated for impairment annually in the fourth quarter or more frequently, if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Impairment is indicated when their book value exceeds fair value. If the fair value of an evaluated asset is less than its book value, the asset is written down to fair value, which is generally based on its discounted future cash flows.

Amortizable intangible assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If an evaluation of the undiscounted cash flows indicates impairment, the asset group is impaired to its estimated fair value, which is generally based on discounted future cash flows, and the impairment is allocated to the individual assets within the asset group.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue Recognition — We manufacture and sell food and beverage products to retailers, foodservice distributors, co-manufacturers, and industrial and export channels. Revenue recognition is completed on a point in time basis when product control is transferred to the customer. In general, control transfers to the customer when the product is shipped or delivered to the customer based upon applicable shipping terms. For each contract, the Company considers the transfer of products, each of which is distinct, to be the identified performance obligation generally satisfied within one year. No payment terms beyond one year are granted at contract inception.
Most contracts also include some form of variable consideration. The most common forms of variable consideration include discounts, rebates, and sales returns and allowances. Variable consideration is treated as a reduction in revenue when product revenue is recognized. Depending on the specific type of variable consideration, we use either the expected value or most likely amount method to determine the variable consideration. The Company reviews and updates its estimates and related accruals of variable consideration each period based on the terms of the agreements, historical experience, and any recent changes in the market.  

The Company does not have significant deferred revenue or unbilled receivable balances arising from transactions with customers. We do not capitalize contract inception costs, as contracts are one year or less. The Company does not incur significant fulfillment costs requiring capitalization. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight are included within Selling and distribution expenses and are accounted for as a fulfillment cost as incurred, including shipping and handling costs after control over a product has transferred to a customer. Shipping and handling costs recorded as a component of Selling and distribution expense were approximately $97.7 million, $112.5 million, and $140.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. In addition, any taxes collected on behalf of government authorities are excluded from net sales.
Cost of Sales
Cost of Sales — Cost of sales represents costs directly related to the manufacture and distribution of our products. Such costs include raw materials, packaging, direct and indirect labor, shipping and handling costs, and overhead which includes depreciation of manufacturing and distribution facilities. Shipping and handling costs included in cost of sales reflect inbound freight, inventory warehouse costs, product loading and handling costs, and costs associated with transporting finished products from our manufacturing facilities to distribution warehouses.
Stock-Based Compensation Stock-Based Compensation — We measure compensation expense for our equity awards at their grant date fair value. The resulting expense is recognized over the relevant service period.
Employment-Related Benefits Employment-Related Benefits — We provide a range of benefits to our employees, including pension and postretirement benefits to our eligible employees and retirees. We record annual amounts relating to these plans based on calculations specified by GAAP, which include various actuarial assumptions, such as discount rates, assumed investment rates of return, compensation increases, employee turnover rates, and health care cost trend rates. We make modifications to the actuarial assumptions based on plan changes, current rates, and trends when appropriate.
Workers' Compensation
Workers' Compensation — The measurement of the liability for our cost of providing these benefits is largely based upon loss development factors that contemplate a number of variables, including claims history and expected trends. These loss development factors are based on industry factors and, along with the estimated liabilities, are developed by us in consultation with external insurance brokers and actuaries. Changes in loss development factors, claims history, and cost trends could result in substantially different results in the future.
Income Taxes
Income Taxes — The provision for income taxes includes federal, foreign, state, and local income taxes currently payable, and those deferred because of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets or liabilities are computed based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. Deferred income tax expenses or credits are based on the changes in the asset or liability from period to period. We account for uncertain tax positions using a "more-likely-than-not" threshold. A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position is recognized if it is more-likely-than-not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position, or the statute of limitations concerning such issues lapses.
Derivatives Instruments
Derivative Instruments — The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed by derivative instruments include interest rate risk, commodity price risk, and market risk associated with the unfunded portion of the Company's deferred compensation liability. Derivative contracts are entered into for periods consistent with the related underlying exposure and do not constitute positions independent of those exposures. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. All derivatives are recorded on a gross basis and carried at fair value in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. None of the Company's derivative instruments are accounted for under hedge accounting and the changes in their fair value are recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The cash flows associated with derivative instruments and their related gains and losses are presented in the cash flows from operating activities section of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions — The functional currency of the Company’s foreign operations is the applicable local currency. The functional currency is translated into U.S. dollars for balance sheet accounts using currency exchange rates in effect as of the balance sheet date, and for revenue and expense accounts using a weighted-average exchange rate during the fiscal year. The translation adjustments are deferred as a separate component of Stockholders’ equity in Accumulated other comprehensive loss. Gains or losses resulting from transactions denominated in foreign currencies and intercompany debt that is not of a long-term investment nature are included in Loss (gain) on foreign currency exchange in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Gains or losses resulting from intercompany debt that is designated a long-term investment are recorded as a separate component of Stockholders' equity in Accumulated other comprehensive loss.
Restructuring Expenses Restructuring Expenses — Restructuring charges principally consist of retention, severance, and other employee separation costs, contract termination costs, accelerated depreciation, professional fees, and certain long-lived asset impairments. The Company recognizes restructuring obligations and liabilities for exit and disposal activities at fair value in the period the liability is incurred. One-time employee termination benefits for employee severance costs are expensed evenly starting at the communication date over the period during which the employee is required to render service to receive the severance. Ongoing benefit arrangements for employee severance costs are expensed when they become probable and reasonably estimable. Depreciation expense related to assets that will be disposed of or idled as a part of the restructuring activity is accelerated through the expected date of the asset shut down. Restructuring charges are incurred as a component of Operating income (loss).
Research and Development Costs Research and Development Costs — We record research and development charges to expense as they are incurred and report them in General and administrative expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Advertising Costs Advertising Costs — Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and reported in Selling and distribution expense of our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Earnings (Loss) per share from Continuing Operations
Earnings (Loss) Per Share from Continuing Operations — Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing Net income (loss) by the number of weighted average common shares outstanding during the reporting period. The weighted average number of common shares used in the diluted earnings per share calculation is determined using the treasury stock method and includes the incremental effect related to the Company’s outstanding stock-based compensation awards.
