NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1.	BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Northland Cranberries, Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and reflect normal and recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of the Company, considered necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of May 31, 2005 and August 31, 2004, its related results of operations for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2005 and 2004 and its cash flows for the nine months ended May 31, 2005 and 2004. As permitted by these regulations, these condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America to be included in an annual set of financial statements, however, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of August 31, 2004 was derived from the Company’s latest audited consolidated financial statements. It is suggested that the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the latest audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2004.

Business Risks — Ocean Spray Cranberries, Inc. (“Ocean Spray”), the industry leader, which controls the bulk of the cranberry supply in North America, effectively determines prices paid to growers for raw cranberries. In addition, the Company is obligated during the next ten years to sell to Ocean Spray all cranberry concentrate not otherwise sold by the Company to Apple & Eve, LLC (“Apple & Eve”) for use in its Northland branded juice business for a purchase price equal to the average price of concentrate sold by Ocean Spray to third party buyers during the prior six month period (see Notes 3 and 4).

Net Income Per Common Share – Net income per common share is calculated in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 128, “Earnings Per Share.” Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding increased by the number of potential dilutive common shares using the treasury stock method.

The weighted average shares outstanding used in calculating net income per common share for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2005 and 2004 consisted of the following:

	For the Three Months Ended				For the Nine Months Ended
	May 31, 2005		May 31, 2004		May 31, 2005		May 31, 2004
Basic shares outstanding		94,091,633		94,091,633		94,091,633		91,548,580
Issuance of new shares		0		0		0		1,624,213

Total		94,091,633		94,091,633		94,091,633		93,172,793
Effect of dilution:
Warrants		2,470,712		2,511,018		2,492,609		3,339,649
Options		2,511,020		4,528,863		3,719,028		4,433,815

Diluted shares outstanding		99,073,365		101,131,514		100,303,270		100,946,257

The shares outstanding used to compute the diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2005 and 2004 exclude outstanding options to purchase 973,125 and 598,825 shares of Class A Common Stock, respectively. Those options were excluded because their weighted average exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares and their inclusion would have been antidilutive.

Accounting for Stock Options — The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with Accounting Principle Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” as allowed by SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” Stock options are granted at prices equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant dates; therefore no compensation expense is recognized in connection with stock options granted to employees. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and net income per share as if the fair value-based method provided by SFAS No. 123 had been applied for all outstanding and unvested awards in each period:

	For the Three Months Ended					For the Nine Months Ended
	(Dollars in thousands except per share amounts)

New Accounting Pronouncements –On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”), which requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements. With limited exceptions, the amount of the compensation cost will be measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. In addition, liability awards will be remeasured each reporting period. Compensation cost will be recognized over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award. SFAS 123R replaces FASB Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation” and supercedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” SFAS 123R is effective for all interim or annual periods beginning after August 31, 2005. Early adoption is encouraged and retroactive application of the provisions of SFAS 123R to the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the effective date is permitted, but not required. The Company has not yet adopted this pronouncement and is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of SFAS 123R will have on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

On November 24, 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 151, “Inventory Costs”(“SFAS 151”), an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4. SFAS 151 clarifies the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted material (spoilage). As such, this statement requires that those items be recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the “so abnormal” criterion outlined in ARB 43. SFAS 151 also introduces the concept of “normal capacity” and requires the allocation of fixed production overhead to inventory based on the normal capacity of the production facility. Unallocated overhead must be recognized as an expense in the period in which it is incurred. SFAS 151 is effective for all interim or annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Early adoption is encouraged and retroactive application of the provisions of SFAS 151 to the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the effective date is permitted, but not required. The Company has not yet adopted this pronouncement and is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of SFAS 151 will have on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

2.	LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is subject to certain legal proceedings, claims and environmental matters that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the final results of such claims and matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the ultimate resolution of all such claims and matters will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Actual results could vary, among other things, due to the uncertainties involved in litigation.

3.	DISPOSITION OF BRANDED JUICE BUSINESS

On February 22, 2005 the Company entered into an agreement with Apple & Eve pursuant to which it sold certain assets of the branded juice business, including: (a) certain raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods inventories, together with certain related labels, bottles and other bottling and packaging materials owned by the Company on February 22, 2005; (b) all the Company’s interest in certain trade rights used or held for use in connection with the business and operation of the Company’s branded juice business, including without limitation rights related to the Northlandtrademark, certain trademarks held by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, NCI Foods, LLC (“NCI Foods”), and the Seneca trademark pursuant to the Trademark License Agreement by and between the Company and Seneca Foods Corporation, a New York corporation (“Seneca”) dated December 29, 1998 (the “Seneca License Agreement”); (c) all trade accounts receivable of the Company related exclusively to the branded juice business; (d) a list of certain customers of the branded juice business and all goodwill associated therewith; (e) all of the Company’s rights in, to and under certain contracts, purchase orders and sales orders of the Company pertaining to the branded juice business; (f) certain personal property; (g) all sales literature, promotional literature, catalogs and similar materials of the Company associated exclusively with the branded juice business, including but not limited to signs, signage and product memorabilia relating to the branded juice business’ trade rights; (h) all transferable licenses, permits, approvals, certifications and listings of the Company relating exclusively to the branded juice business; and (i) the records and files of the Company relating exclusively to the above-referenced assets of the branded juice business, including, without limitation, transferring invoices, customer and vendor lists and operating and marketing plans, and all other documents, tapes, discs, programs or other embodiments of information of the branded juice business. As consideration for the purchased assets, Apple & Eve paid to the Company, subject to a final working capital adjustment, approximately $10.8 million in cash, consisting of base consideration of approximately $9 million, $500,000 of which was placed in an escrow account, and a preliminary working capital adjustment of approximately $1.8 million.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Apple & Eve also assumed approximately $3.5 million of selected current liabilities of the Company, including: (i) all liabilities and obligations associated with any open purchase orders and contracts with respect to sales of juice products related to the brands (excluding the cranberry juice concentrate, fresh cranberry and frozen cranberry inventories of the Company); (ii) all liabilities and obligations associated with any open purchase orders and contracts with vendors and suppliers of raw materials related to the brands; (iii) all liabilities and obligations associated with the Company’s rights in, to and under certain contracts, purchase orders and sales orders of the Company pertaining to the branded juice business and arising after February 22, 2005; (iv) all trade accounts payable; (v) all liabilities and obligations of the Company relating to coupons issued by the Company prior to February 22, 2005 and validly redeemed on or after April 26, 2005; (vi) all liabilities and obligations of the Company associated with any product liability, breach of warranty or similar claim for injury to person or property asserted after February 22, 2005 and related to the branded juice business, but only to the extent based on events occurring after February 22, 2005; (vii) except as otherwise provided in the Purchase Agreement, all liabilities and obligations associated with certain employees employed by Apple & Eve after February 22, 2005 that arise after February 22, 2005 and relate to Apple & Eve’s employment of such employees; (viii) all liabilities and obligations associated with the failure by Apple & Eve, the branded juice business or the purchased assets to comply with any law, regulation, statute, ordinance or treaty after the closing of the transaction, subject to the agreement of the parties set forth in the Purchase Agreement; and (ix) liens that are considered permitted liens.

The Company and Apple & Eve also entered into a Concentrate Purchase and Supply Agreement, under which Apple & Eve committed to purchase from the Company on a monthly basis, during the period from February 22, 2005 to February 22, 2006, all of the cranberry concentrate in the Company’s inventory of cranberry juice concentrate as of February 22, 2005 (the “Existing Inventory”), for an aggregate purchase price equal to approximately $6.7 million. In addition, for the period beginning on October 1, 2005 and ending on the earlier of September 30, 2014 or the termination of the Company’s toll processing agreement with Ocean Spray, Apple & Eve has the option in each year to purchase on a monthly basis up to the total amount of cranberry juice concentrate available to the Company under its toll processing agreement with Ocean Spray at a price that does not exceed the price at which the Company can sell cranberry juice concentrate to Ocean Spray under the toll processing agreement.

As a result of this transaction, the Company recognized a gain of approximately $4.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2005. The Company used the net proceeds resulting from the sale of the branded juice business to pay down outstanding principal balances on its Revolver A, Revolver B and term loan credit facilities, and to pay related expenses due to the administrative agent.

The Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes have been restated for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2005 and 2004, where applicable to reflect the branded juice business as a discontinued operation.

Operating results of the discontinued operations were as follows:

	For the Three Months Ended						For the Nine Months Ended

4.	OCEAN SPRAY TRANSACTION

On September 23, 2004, the Company entered into agreements with Ocean Spray pursuant to which: (i) it sold its processing plant, storage facility and certain offices located in Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin to Ocean Spray for approximately $28 million, subject to certain adjustments and including a $2.5 million escrow; (ii) Ocean Spray paid to the Company a non-refundable (but creditable) $5.0 million cash fee in exchange for the option to purchase up to 14 of the Company’s 17 cranberry marshes at prices that aggregate to $47.5 million (before the option fee); (iii) the Company agreed to, for a period of ten years, deliver all of the cranberries harvested from its currently-owned marshes and its contract growers’ marshes to Ocean Spray, which Ocean Spray will receive, clean, bin, store and process into juice concentrate for a fixed fee(which increases annually); (iv) Ocean Spray agreed to, for a period of ten years, purchase cranberry concentrate not otherwise used in the Northland branded juice business; and (v) the Company agreed to dismiss with prejudice its antitrust lawsuit against Ocean Spray. As a result of this transaction, the Company recognized a gain of $7.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005.

On February 28, 2005, the Company received notice from Ocean Spray that it had assigned to four of its cranberry producing members its rights to receive title to 10 of the 14 cranberry marshes subject to the Option Agreement. Between March 18 and March 22, 2005, the Company received executed Purchase Agreements from Wayne Gardner d/b/a Dawesville Cranberry Co. (with respect to which the rights to receive title to the cranberry marshes were subsequently assigned to Dandy Creek Cranberries, LLC and Gardner Cranberry, LLC), JJW Cranberries, LLC, Acorn Acres Cranberry Co., Inc. (with respect to which the right to receive title to the cranberry marsh was subsequently assigned to Nekoosa Marsh, LLC), and James Potter Cranberry Marsh, Inc., relating to the purchase of an aggregate of nine marshes. Between March 23 and March 29, 2005, the Company countersigned the Purchase Agreements, and those agreements became effective. The Company publicly announced its entry into these agreements in a Current Report on Form 8-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 29, 2005.

Between May 20 and May 24, 2005, the Company consummated the sale of eight of the nine marshes for which executed Purchase Agreements were received. In each case, the Company sold (and the purchaser purchased), generally speaking, (i) the real estate representing the applicable marsh and (ii) the personal property used exclusively in connection with the operation of the applicable marsh. As a result of these transactions, the Company recognized a gain of $6.2 million. The sale of the ninth and final marsh for which an executed Purchase Agreement was received (the Warrens marsh) occurred on June 10, 2005. We expect to recognize a gain of less than $0.1 million related to the sale of the Warrens marsh during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005.

As of May 31, 2005 and August 31, 2004, the Company was in compliance with financial covenants contained in its debt agreements.

7.	INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach that generally requires the recognition of deferred income tax assets and liabilities based on the expected future income tax consequences of events that have previously been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. In addition, a valuation allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized.

8.	NOTE RECEIVABLE

On January 28, 2004, the Company made a loan of $800,000 to an independent cranberry grower who is a former officer of the Company, which is secured by a subordinated mortgage of the grower’s cranberry marsh (the “Loan”). The Loan, which is recorded within Other Assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet, was made in connection with the restructuring of certain debt obligations of the grower, $1.0 million of which were previously guaranteed by the Company. The proceeds of the Loan were used to pay off the indebtedness of the grower to its bank, enabling the Company to obtain from the bank a release of its obligations under the guarantee.Principal payments due under the terms of the loan were received during the nine months ended May 31, 2005. The outstanding principal balance of the Loan as of May 31, 2005 was $708,300.

9.	COMMITMENTS

The Company has multiple-year crop purchase contracts with 44 independent cranberry growers pursuant to which the Company has contracted to purchase all of the cranberries harvested from up to 1,738 contracted acres owned by these growers, subject to federal marketing order limitations. These contracts generally last for five years, and pay the growers at a market rate, as defined, for all raw cranberries delivered (plus $3 per barrel in certain circumstances) and certain incentives for premium cranberries.

The Company and Ocean Spray entered into an agreement for a period of ten years pursuant to which Ocean Spray will receive, clean, store and process into concentrate all cranberries harvested from the Company’s and its contract growers’ cranberry properties for a scheduled fee (see Note 4).

10.

DIVIDEND PAID

On November 12, 2004, the Company declared a special cash dividend of $0.33 per share of Class A Common Stock payable on December 1, 2004 to all shareholders of record at the close of business on November 26, 2004. The $31.9 million dividend was paid from a combination of proceeds from the September 2004 asset sale to Ocean Spray (see Note 4) and borrowings under the loan agreements with Wells Fargo and Ableco.

11.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company maintains the Retirement Plan for Employees of Minot Food Packers, Inc., a frozen defined benefit pension plan for the benefit of certain former eligible employees of the Company. On March 14, 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the termination of the Pension Plan effective June 6, 2005.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

DISPOSITION OF BRANDED JUICE BUSINESS

On February 22, 2005 we entered into an agreement with Apple & Eve pursuant to which we sold certain assets of our branded juice business, including: (i) certain raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods inventories; (ii) our interest in certain trade rights used or held for use in connection with the business and operation of our branded juice business, including rights related to the Northland trademark, certain trademarks held by our wholly owned subsidiary, NCI Foods, and rights to the Seneca trademark licensed from Seneca Foods Corporation; (iii) our trade accounts receivable related exclusively to the branded juice business; (iv) a list of certain customers of the branded juice business and goodwill associated therewith; and (v) our rights in, to and under certain contracts, purchase orders and sales orders pertaining to the branded juice business. Apple & Eve also assumed selected liabilities associated with the branded juice business. As consideration for the purchased assets, Apple & Eve paid us, subject to a final working capital adjustment, approximately $10.8 million in cash.

We also entered into a Concentrate Purchase and Supply Agreement with Apple & Eve under which (i) during the period February 22, 2005 to February 22, 2006 Apple & Eve can purchase our inventory of cranberry concentrate for an aggregate price equal to approximately $6.7 million and (ii) for the period beginning on October 1, 2005 and ending on the earlier of September 30, 2014 or the termination of our toll processing agreement with Ocean Spray, Apple & Eve has the option in each year to purchase on a monthly basis up to the total amount of cranberry juice concentrate available to us under our toll processing agreement with Ocean Spray at a price that does not exceed the price at which we can sell cranberry juice concentrate to Ocean Spray under the toll processing agreement.

EXERCISE OF OCEAN SPRAY OPTION

On September 23, 2004, we entered into agreements with Ocean Spray pursuant to which: (i) we sold our processing plant, storage facility and certain offices located in Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin to Ocean Spray for approximately $28.0 million, subject to certain adjustments and including a $2.5 million escrow; (ii) Ocean Spray paid us a non-refundable (but creditable) $5.0 million cash fee in exchange for the option to purchase up to 14 of our 17 cranberry marshes at prices that aggregate to $47.5 million (before the option fee); (iii) we agreed to, for a period of ten years, deliver all of the cranberries harvested from our currently-owned marshes and our contract growers’ marshes to Ocean Spray, which Ocean Spray will receive, clean, bin, store and process into juice concentrate for a fixed fee; (iv) Ocean Spray agreed to, for a period of ten years, purchase cranberry concentrate not otherwise used by us in our branded products; and (v) we agreed to dismiss with prejudice our antitrust lawsuit against Ocean Spray (the “Ocean Spray Transaction”).

On February 28, 2005, we received notice from Ocean Spray that it had assigned to four of its cranberry producing members its rights to receive title to ten of the fourteen cranberry marshes subject to the option agreement entered into in the Ocean Spray Transaction. Between March 18 and March 22, 2005, we received executed Agricultural Asset Purchase Agreements from JJW Cranberries, LLC, Wayne Gardner d/b/a Dawesville Cranberry Co., James Potter Cranberry Marsh, Inc. and Acorn Acres Cranberry Co., Inc. relating to the purchase of an aggregate of nine marshes. Between March 23 and March 29, 2005, we countersigned those agreements, and those agreements became effective.

Between May 20 and May 24, 2005, the Company consummated the sale of eight of the nine marshes for which executed Purchase agreements were received. In each case, the Company sold (and the purchaser purchased), generally speaking, (i) the real estate representing the applicable marsh and the personal property used exclusively in connection with the operation of the applicable marsh. The aggregate proceeds from the sale of the marshes was approximately $23.6 million (excluding the $5.0 million option fee paid to the Company by Ocean Spray during the first quarter of fiscal 2005). The sale of the ninth and final marsh for which an executed Purchase Agreement was received (the Warrens marsh) occurred on June 10, 2005.

The proceeds from the marsh sales were used to (i) pay off our long-term note with Ableco of $12.0 million and satisfy our revolving line of credit facility; (ii) pay off our long-term note with The Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States (“Equitable”) of $9.0 million; and (ii) pay the expenses related to the marsh sales.

Following the consummation of the marsh sales, our business consists primarily of (i) growing cranberries at our remaining eight marshes and delivering those cranberries to Ocean Spray for processing into cranberry juice concentrate pursuant to our toll processing agreement with Ocean Spray; (ii) purchasing cranberries from our 44 contract growers and delivering those cranberries to Ocean Spray for processing into cranberry juice concentrate pursuant to our toll processing agreement with Ocean Spray; (iii) selling cranberry juice concentrate to Apple & Eve pursuant to our supply agreement with Apple & Eve; (iv) selling to Ocean Spray cranberry juice concentrate pursuant to our toll processing agreement with Ocean Spray that we do not otherwise sell to Apple & Eve.

The cranberries we harvested in the fall of 2004 (fiscal 2005) from the nine marshes sold to assignees of Ocean Spray accounted for approximately 53% of the total fiscal 2005 harvest from our owned marshes and approximately 27% of the total fiscal 2005 harvest from our owned and contracted marshes on a combined basis. Since the cranberries harvested in the fall of 2004 from the nine marshes sold to assignees of Ocean Spray have already been processed and either sold or committed to be sold, the revenues and profits from the sale of those cranberries will be recorded in fiscal 2005. As a result, assuming market prices for cranberry concentrate remain stable, we do not expect our revenues and profits from the sale of cranberry concentrate to materially change in fiscal 2005 as a result of the sale of the nine marshes. However, commencing in fiscal 2006, and assuming aggregate harvest levels remain relatively constant, we expect to harvest approximately 50% fewer cranberries from our owned marshes than we did in fiscal 2005. Assuming market prices for cranberry concentrate remain stable, we believe this reduction in cranberries harvested will result in a reduction in revenue from the sale of cranberry concentrate of approximately 25% for fiscal 2006 compared to fiscal 2005, and a comparable reduction in operating profits.

Consistent with our previously announced exploration of strategic alternatives, we may also continue to seek the sale of our remaining marshes and potentially the assignment of our toll processing agreement with Ocean Spray, supply agreement with Apple & Eve and agreements with our contract growers. We may sell or assign these assets to one or more buyers, from time to time, through one or more transactions. Potential buyers of our assets may include certain affiliates, including potentially members of our management. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully identify potential buyers for our remaining assets on terms favorable to us or at all.

If we are successful in selling or assigning these remaining assets, we may subsequently liquidate Northland. Upon any such liquidation, we would intend to distribute the cash proceeds received in liquidation to our shareholders, following satisfaction of remaining liabilities and appropriate provision for contingent liabilities, in accordance with Wisconsin law and our articles of incorporation.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to inventories, long-lived assets and income taxes. We base these estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Specifically, we believe that the following accounting policies and estimates are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and operating results and require management’s most difficult judgments:

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, product is delivered, collectibility is reasonably assured and title passes to the customer.

Inventory

We have stated our inventory carrying value at the lower of cost (using the first-in, first-out costing method) or estimated market values, based upon management’s best estimates of future product selling costs for the periods during which the cranberries are grown and the cranberries and cranberry-related products are expected to be sold. The market estimates are dependent upon several factors including, but not limited to, price, product mix, demand, costs and the period of time it takes to sell the inventory.

Recoverability of Long-Lived Assets

We state the value of our long-lived assets (property and equipment) at cost less depreciation and amortization. We periodically evaluate this carrying value. Our estimates of the expected future undiscounted cash flows related to the recoverability of these assets may change from actual cash flows due to, among other things, changes in technology and economic conditions.

Realization of Deferred Tax Assets

We have recorded a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets. We considered our recent history of profitable operations adjusting for nonrecurring items, the sale of certain assets to Ocean Spray, the sale of cranberry marshes, the sale of the Branded Juice Business to Apple and Eve and projected future operations in reaching our conclusion.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We do not typically engage in off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements, obligations (including contingent obligations), and other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons that may have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, capital resources, or significant components of revenues or expenses. We do not materially rely on off-balance sheet arrangements for liquidity, capital resources, market risk support, credit risk support or other benefits.

We have outstanding 100 shares of our Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock is subject to mandatory redemption upon (i) the consummation of a transaction following which neither Sun Northland, LLC nor its affiliates owns or controls securities possessing at least 10% of the voting power of the Company, or (ii) the distribution of assets to holders of our capital stock upon the sale of substantially all our assets. The redemption price in such a circumstance varies depending upon the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding and the internal rate of return (as defined in our Articles of Incorporation) recognized by Sun Northland, LLC in connection with the event triggering such redemption. We cannot be certain if or when the Series B Preferred Stock may be redeemed, nor can we be certain of the redemption price in the event of such a redemption.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Total net revenues for the three months ended May 31, 2005 were $10.4 million, an increase of 57.4% from net revenues of $6.6 million in the prior year’s third quarter. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the quantity of cranberry concentrate sold as a result of our toll processing agreement with Ocean Spray. Total net revenues for the nine months ended May 31, 2005 were $28.1 million, an increase of 41.9% from net revenues of $19.8 million in the corresponding period for the prior year. This increase was primarily due to a $3.4 million sale of cranberries to Ocean Spray in connection with the Ocean Spray Transaction, as well as an increase in the quantity of cranberry concentrate sold as a result of our toll processing agreement with Ocean Spray. Commencing in fiscal 2006, we expect revenues from the sale of cranberry concentrate to decline as a result of the sale of nine of our 17 cranberry marshes as described under “Exercise of Ocean Spray Option.”

Cost of sales for the three months ended May 31, 2005 was $8.4 million compared to $4.1 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2004, resulting in gross margins of 19.2% and 38.5% in each respective period. The increase in cost of sales was primarily due to an increase in the quantity of cranberry concentrate sold. The decrease in gross margin percentage was primarily the result of lower selling prices and higher costs for cranberries used to produce cranberry concentrate over the same period in fiscal 2004.

Cost of sales for the nine months ended May 31, 2005 was $20.1 million compared to $11.2 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2004, resulting in gross margins of 28.6% and 43.3% in each respective period. The increase in cost of sales was primarily due to an increase in the quantity of cranberry concentrate sold. The decrease in gross margin percentage was primarily the result of lower selling prices for cranberry concentrate and frozen processed cranberries over the same periods in fiscal 2004 and higher costs for cranberries used to produce cranberry concentrate.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1.3 million, or 12.5% of net revenues, for the three months ended May 31, 2005 compared to $2.4 million, or 36.8% of net revenues, for the third quarter of fiscal 2004. The decrease was primarily the result of a reduction in expenses related to (i) the closure of our former bottling facility in Jackson, Wisconsin, (ii) legal and consulting services and (iii) wages and benefits. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $5.4 million, or 19.2% of net revenues, for the nine months ended May 31, 2005 compared to $7.4 million, or 37.5% of net revenues, for the first nine months of fiscal 2004. The decrease was primarily the result of a reduction in expenses related to (i) the closure of our former bottling facility in Jackson, Wisconsin and (ii) legal and consulting services. This reduction in expenses was partially offset by an increase in wages during the first six months of fiscal 2004 as a result of bonuses paid to senior management. We expect to further decrease our general and administrative expenses following the sale of nine or our 17 cranberry marshes as described under “Exercise of Ocean Spray Option.”

As a result of the sale of the cranberry marshes, we recognized a gain of $6.2 million in the three months ended May 31, 2005. As a result of the Ocean Spray Transaction, we recognized a gain of $7.7 million in the nine months ended May 31, 2005 (see Note 4) for a total gain of disposal of property, equipment and other assets of $13.9 million in the nine months ended May 31, 2005.

The third quarter of fiscal 2004 included other income of $3.0 million from a payment received from Cliffstar Corporation (“Cliffstar”) as the result of the settlement of a dispute related to the calculation of earn-out payments due us in connection with the sale of our private label juice business to Cliffstar in fiscal 2000.

Interest expense was $0.5 million for the three months ended May 31, 2005 compared to $0.5 million in the prior year’s third quarter. Interest expense was $2.3 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2005 compared to $1.8 million in the first nine months of the prior year. The increase in interest expense resulted from increased debt levels during the first quarter, as well as higher interest rates and additional loan costs incurred in connection with the restructuring of our debt arrangements with Wells Fargo and Ableco in the first quarter of 2005.

We incurred a net gain of $1.0 million on debt extinguishment during the three months ended May 31, 2005 as a result of the payoff of our debt to Equitable and Ableco. We incurred a net loss of $0.8 million on debt extinguishment during the nine months ended May 31, 2005 as we paid off our debt to Equitable, Wells Fargo and Ableco. This compared to a gain on debt extinguishment of $5.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2004 as a result of the payoff of our term note with U.S. Bank National Association (“US Bank”). The gain was the recognition of the future interest payments, as previously established in accordance with SFAS No. 15, “Accounting for Debtors and Creditors for Troubled Debt Restructurings,” from the restructuring of our debt with US Bank in November 2001.

As a result of the sale of our branded juice business to Apple & Eve (see Note 3), we recognized a gain of $4.5 million in the nine months ended May 31, 2005. In the three months ended May 31, 2005 we recognized a loss of $0.6 million as a result of a working capital adjustment related to the sale of our branded juice business to Apple & Eve.

Net income for the three months ended May 31, 2005 was $3.4 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared to net income of $0.7 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2004. Net income for the nine months ended May 31, 2005, was $10.8 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, compared to net income of $9.6 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, for the nine months of fiscal 2004.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash provided by operating activities was $3.7 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2005 compared to $2.5 million in the same period of fiscal 2004. Receivables, prepaid expenses and other current assets increased $1.5 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2005 compared to a decrease of $3.4 million for the same period in fiscal 2004. This increase was primarily due to the establishment of $3.0 million in escrow funds in connection with the sale of our branded juice business to Apple & Eve and the Ocean Spray Transaction. This increase was partly offset by a reduction in accounts receivable of $1.2 million. This compared to a decrease in receivables during the same period in fiscal 2004 due primarily to lower sales. Inventories decreased $2.0 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2005 compared to an increase of $9.3 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2004. Inventories decreased in fiscal 2005 due to the sale of our deferred crop attributable to the eight marshes sold in connection with the exercise of the Ocean Spray option. Inventories increased in fiscal 2004 due to a larger harvest. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased by $0.8 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2005 compared to a decrease of $0.2 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2004. The increase in 2005 was primarily due to the seasonal increases in grower crop payables.

Working capital was $19.3 million at May 31, 2005 compared to $26.6 million at August 31, 2004. Current assets at May 31, 2005 decreased by $11.4 million and current liabilities decreased by $4.2 million. The decrease in current assets was primarily attributable to the sale of our branded juice business to Apple & Eve. The decrease in current liabilities was primarily due to the satisfaction of our debt obligations. Our current ratio increased to 4.2 to 1.0 at May 31, 2005, compared to 3.6 to 1.0 at August 31, 2004.

Net cash provided by investing activities in the first nine months of fiscal 2005 was $51.3 million due in part to the $9.7 million in proceeds received from the sale of our branded juice business to Apple & Eve (see Note 3). Net cash provided by investing activities also included $41.7 million from the sale of our receiving, freezing and concentrate-processing plant and an adjacent office in Wisconsin Rapids to Ocean Spray in September 2004 and the sale of cranberry marshes in May 2005. Net cash provided by investing activities in first nine months of fiscal 2004 was $2.5 million, which primarily resulted from the $4.0 million received from the sale of equipment at our former bottling facility in Jackson, Wisconsin, as well as the sale of our former facilities located in Bridgeton, New Jersey and Eau Claire, Michigan. Purchases of equipment amounted to $146,000 in the first nine months of fiscal 2005 compared to $912,000 in the first nine months of fiscal 2004. Also, in the first nine months of fiscal 2004, we made a loan of $0.8 million to one of our contract growers (see Note 8).

Our net cash used by financing activities was $52.1 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2005 compared to net cash used of $11.8 million in the same period of the prior year. In the first nine months of fiscal 2005, we made principal payments on long-term debt and other obligations of $35.2 million as required under our restructured debt agreements compared to $13.3 million in the same period of fiscal 2004. Also, in the first nine months of fiscal 2005, we had borrowings of $15.0 million under our term loan facility. We used the proceeds from these borrowings to reduce other long-term debt by $5.0 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2005 and, with proceeds from the Ocean Spray Transaction, to pay a special dividend of $0.33 per share (or an aggregate of $31.9 million) on our class A common stock during the second quarter of fiscal 2005. In both fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2004, monthly principal payments were made on other obligations and additional payments were made as required under our restructured and restated debt agreements.

The following schedule sets forth our contractual obligations as of May 31, 2005 (in thousands):

Payments Due by Period

Contractual Obligations	Total		Less than 1 year		1-3 years		3-5 years		More than 5 years
Principal debt obligations	$	475	$	250	$	225	$	0	$	0
Purchase obligations (1)		4,041		4,041		0		0		0
Total	$	4,516	$	4,291	$	225	$	0	$	0

(1)

Purchase obligations include estimated payments of $2.0 million due to contract growers for cranberries purchased by us during the first quarter for fiscal 2005. Under our crop purchase contracts, which generally last for five years, we pay the growers at a market rate, as defined, for all raw cranberries delivered (plus $3 per barrel in certain circumstances). Purchase obligations also include toll processing fees of $2.0 million due Ocean Spray for processing our cranberries into cranberry concentrate. Our obligations under the crop purchase agreements and the toll processing agreement with Ocean Spray are subject to variability and generally not fixed or subject to reasonable estimation until the fourth quarter of each year.

We used the proceeds from the sale of our marshes during the quarter to (i) pay off our long-term note with Ableco of $12.0 million, (ii) satisfy our revolving line of credit facility with Ableco, and (iii) pay off our long-term note with Equitable of $9.0 million.

We believe we will be able to fund our ongoing operational needs for fiscal 2005 from cash on hand and cash generated from operations. We do not have any significant capital expenditure commitments and continue to review our capital requirements in an effort to match expenditures with revenues.

As of May 31, 2005, we were in compliance with all of our debt arrangements.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

We make certain “forward-looking statements” in this Form 10-Q, such as statements about our future plans, goals and other events which have not yet occurred. We intend that these statements will qualify for the safe harbors from liability provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You can generally identify these forward-looking statements because we use words such as we “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect” or similar words when we make them. Forward-looking statements include, among others, statements about actions by our competitors, sufficiency of our working capital, potential operational improvements and our efforts to improve profitability, sales strategies, anticipated sales of our cranberry concentrates, potential future strategic transactions and the effects of recent transactions. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and the actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, without limitation, risks associated with (i) the level of cranberry inventory held by industry participants; (ii) agricultural factors affecting our crop and the crop of other North American growers; (iii) our ability to comply with the terms and conditions of, and to satisfy our responsibilities under, our debt agreements; and (iv) our ability to identify, evaluate and successfully execute any strategic alternatives. You should consider these risks and factors and the impact they may have when you evaluate our forward-looking statements. We make these statements based only on our knowledge and expectations on the date of this Form 10-Q. We disclaim any duty to update these statements or other information in this Form 10-Q based on future events or circumstances. Please read this entire Form 10-Q to better understand our business and the risks associated with our operations. Specifically, please see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for a discussion of our current financial condition.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

We do not enter into any material futures, forwards, swaps, options or other derivative financial instruments for trading or other purposes. Our primary exposure to market risk is related to changes in interest rates and the effects those changes may have on our earnings as a result of our long-term financing arrangements. We manage our exposure to this market risk by monitoring interest rates and possible alternative means of financing. Our earnings may be affected by changes in short-term interest rates under our revolving credit facility and certain term loans, pursuant to which our borrowings bear interest at a variable rate, subject to minimum interest rates payable on certain loans. Based upon the debt outstanding under our revolving credit facility and certain term loans as of May 31, 2005, an increase of 1.0% in market interest rates would increase our annual interest expense by approximately $4,000.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Our Chief Executive Officer and our Vice President – Finance, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Vice President — Finance concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Chief Executive Officer and Vice President — Finance to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

As we previously announced, on September 23, 2004, we entered into various agreements with Ocean Spray. Among those agreements was an option agreement under which Ocean Spray paid to us a non-refundable (but creditable) $5.0 million cash fee in exchange for an option to purchase up to 14 of our 17 cranberry marshes, with the sale and purchase of any marsh to occur upon the terms and conditions of a previously negotiated agricultural asset purchase agreement. Ocean Spray’s option was exercisable, individually or collectively, only during the period beginning on December 1, 2004 and ending on March 22, 2005. The option agreement allowed Ocean Spray to assign its rights to receive title to the cranberry marshes that are subject to such option agreement to its cranberry producing members or any other person selected by Ocean Spray.

On February 28, 2005, we received notice from Ocean Spray that it had assigned to four of its cranberry producing members its rights to receive title to 10 of the 14 cranberry marshes subject to the option agreement. Between March 18 and March 22, 2005, we received executed agricultural asset purchase agreements from those four cranberry producing members of Ocean Spray relating to the purchase of an aggregate of nine marshes. Between March 23 and March 29, 2005, we countersigned those agreements, and those agreements became effective.

Under the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law (“WBCL”), no shareholder approval of the marsh sales was required. However, since the marsh sales constituted a significant corporate action, and since the agricultural asset purchase agreements contemplate potential receipt of shareholder approval in connection with the marsh sales, our board of directors nevertheless decided to seek shareholder approval of the marsh sales by obtaining the written consent of Sun Northland, LLC (“Sun Northland”), which beneficially owns approximately 94.6% of our issued and outstanding common stock. On March 31, 2005, Sun Northland approved the sale of the nine cranberry marshes by written consent action pursuant to the WBCL and our articles of incorporation and bylaws.
