Diamond Foods, Inc. (Nasdaq: DMND) made a pre-harvest momentum payment to walnut growers in early September, prior to the delivery of the fall walnut crop to reflect the fiscal 2012 projected market environment. The payment is accounted for in fiscal 2012 cost of goods sold and is reflected in the guidance provided by the company on September 15, 2011.

Diamond reaffirms the guidance provided in its press release dated September 15, 2011, which reflects not only higher commodity costs expected in fiscal 2012, but also recent retail price increases taken for its products. Diamond believes it has an ample walnut supply for both the retail and value-added, non-retail business.
