Supplier / Outside Vendor Letter

Dear Valued Supplier,

I wanted to reach out and share some exciting news about TreeHouse Foods. This morning, we announced that TreeHouse Foods has agreed to be acquired by Investindustrial, a multi-billion-dollar global investment firm with deep consumer and food industry expertise. Following completion of the transaction, TreeHouse Foods will become a private company.

Our goal at TreeHouse Foods has always been to be an exceptional supply chain partner to our customers. We aim to offer the highest quality, most innovative products at low costs to meet the evolving needs of consumers. Investindustrial has a strong track record in food manufacturing and related sectors and shares our vision for long-term growth in snacking and beverage categories. With their support, we will continue to advance our growth plans, and the continued partnership of our suppliers will be critical for enabling our mutual success over the long-term.

While we are looking forward to joining forces with Investindustrial, today’s announcement is just the first step in the transaction process. The transaction is subject to approval by TreeHouse Foods shareholders and other customary closing conditions. Importantly, we are continuing to work with you as we always have, with no changes to contracts or your company contacts. As always, our focus is on serving customers and continuing to work with you to meet their needs.

Between now and closing, we intend to continue operating much as we do today. We expect this to be a smooth transition, and we will keep you informed as there are updates to share. In the meantime, please do not hesitate to reach out to your usual contact with any questions you have regarding this transaction and what it means for you.

Thank you for your continued partnership with TreeHouse Foods. We hope you share our excitement about the future of our company.

Throughout this communication, we make forward-looking statements within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements may be typically identified by such words as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “likely,” “believe,” “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” and other similar expressions among others. Although we believe the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are reasonable, they involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, are not guarantees of future performance, and actual results, performance or achievements may differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements and any or all of our forward-looking statements may prove to be incorrect.

Factors which could cause our actual results to differ from those projected or contemplated in any such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following factors: the risk that the transaction does not close, due to the failure of one or more conditions to closing; the risk that required governmental or TreeHouse Foods’ shareholder approvals of the merger (including antitrust approvals) will not be obtained or that such approvals will be delayed beyond current expectations; litigation in respect of TreeHouse Foods or the merger; and disruption from the merger making it more difficult to maintain customer, supplier, key personnel and other strategic relationships. The foregoing review of important factors that could cause actual events to differ from expectations should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with statements that are included herein and elsewhere, including the risk factors included in TreeHouse Foods’ most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 14, 2025, TreeHouse Foods’ more recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on July 31, 2025 and Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC.
