Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition
     On February 7, 2006, Performance Food Group Company, a Tennessee corporation (the “Company”), issued a press release announcing its earnings results for the fiscal quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, the text of which is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
     The press release furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 contains certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by Regulation G of the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial statements prepared on a GAAP basis, the Company is disclosing non-GAAP net earnings from continuing operations and non-GAAP EPS from continuing operations. The Company is also disclosing the range of its projected earnings per share diluted for the 2006 fiscal year excluding anticipated stock compensation expense for the period.
     The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure prepared in accordance with GAAP. Because non-GAAP financial measures presented in the press release are not measurements determined in accordance with GAAP and are susceptible to varying calculations, these non-GAAP financial measures, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
     The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate making period-to-period comparisons and are meaningful indications of its operating performance. The Company included non-GAAP net earnings from continuing operations and non-GAAP EPS from continuing operations because it believes that these measures more accurately reflect the Company’s operating performance for the 2005 fourth quarter and fiscal year when compared to the same periods in 2004 and to provide investors with additional information to evaluate the Company’s past financial results and ongoing operational performance. The presentation of the Company’s projected earnings per share diluted for the 2006 fiscal year excluding the impact of stock compensation expense is included in the press release to provide investors with the information the Company believes is necessary to compare the Company’s performance during the 2005 fiscal year, prior to its adoption of SFAS No. 123R, with the projected performance for the 2006 fiscal year when the Company is required to expense stock compensation under SFAS No. 123R.
