"As we have shared previously, our top capital allocation priority is growing our business through M&A and brand/distribution partnerships.

We have a strong nationwide omni-channel selling and distribution system, including our company-owned DSD network, and a long track record of leveraging this important asset to drive strong in-market execution and market share growth for our brands and those of our strategic partners."
