Includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the Entity may deposit additional funds at any time and also effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Compensating balance arrangements that do not legally restrict the withdrawal or usage of cash amounts may be reported as Cash and Cash Equivalents, while legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against borrowing arrangements, contracts entered into with others, or company statements of intention with regard to particular deposits are not generally reported as cash and cash equivalents. Includes cash and cash equivalents associated with the entity's continuing operations. Excludes cash and cash equivalents associated with the disposal group (and discontinued operation).

Includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the Entity may deposit additional funds at any time and also effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Compensating balance arrangements that do not legally restrict the withdrawal or usage of cash amounts may be reported as Cash and Cash Equivalents, while legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against borrowing arrangements, contracts entered into with others, or company statements of intention with regard to particular deposits are not generally reported as cash and cash equivalents. Includes cash and cash equivalents associated with the entity's continuing operations. Excludes cash and cash equivalents associated with the disposal group (and discontinued operation).

| Operations and Basis of Presentation |
Note 1—Operations and Basis of Presentation Description of Business and Basis of Presentation The financial statements include the consolidated accounts of Chefs’ Warehouse Holdings, LLC, the predecessor of The Chefs’ Warehouse, Inc. (the “Company”), and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Our quarterly periods end on the thirteenth Friday of each quarter. The Company operates in one segment, food product distribution, which is concentrated on the East and West Coasts of the United States. Our customer base consists primarily of menu-driven independent restaurants, fine dining establishments, country clubs, hotels, caterers, culinary schools and specialty food stores. On July 27, 2011, we completed a reorganization in which Chefs’ Warehouse Holdings, LLC was converted into The Chefs’ Warehouse, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Conversion”). As part of the Conversion we issued 16,000,000 shares of common stock. Each holder of our Class B and Class C units received approximately 0.2942 shares of common stock for each unit of membership interest in Chefs’ Warehouse Holdings, LLC owned by them at the time of the Conversion. Of the total number of shares issued in the Conversion, 445,056 shares were restricted shares of our common stock issued upon conversion of our Class C units that had not vested as of the date we consummated the Conversion. The effects of this reorganization on our equity have been reflected for all periods presented retroactively. On August 2, 2011, the Company completed the initial public offering (“IPO”) of shares of its common stock. The Company issued 4,666,667 shares in the offering, and certain existing stockholders sold an additional 5,683,333 shares, including 1,350,000 shares sold to the underwriters to cover over-allotments. The Company received net proceeds from the offering of approximately $63,476 (after the payment of underwriter discounts and commissions and offering expenses) that have been used, together with borrowings under the Company’s new senior secured credit facilities, to repay all of the Company’s loans outstanding under its former senior secured credit facilities and senior subordinated notes, including any accrued and unpaid interest, call premiums and unamortized original issue discount (“OID”). Consolidation of Ownership On October 22, 2010, the Company redeemed all of its authorized and outstanding Class A units for a redemption price of $68,250. The redemption price consisted of $45,821 of principal and accreted interest, as well as $22,429 of deemed equity value. The redemption price was calculated in line with the Chefs’ Warehouse Holdings, LLC’s limited liability company agreement then in effect and was mutually agreed upon by all participating parties. The redemption resulted in the Class B and Class C unit holders of Chefs’ Warehouse Holdings, LLC increasing their ownership interests from 68.5% to 100%. The Class A units were retired at the time of redemption. Unaudited Interim Financial Statements The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related interim information contained within the notes to such condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim information and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended December 24, 2010 filed as part of the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-173445), which was declared effective July 27, 2011 (See Note 9). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements appearing in this Form 10-Q have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s prospectus as filed with the SEC on July 28, 2011 and in the opinion of management include all normal recurring adjustments that are necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s interim period results. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. Due to seasonal fluctuations and other factors, the results of operations for the 13 weeks and 39 weeks ended September 23, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from management’s estimates. Consolidation The Company’s wholly-owned operating companies include the following: Dairyland USA Corporation (“Dairyland”), a New York corporation engaged in business as a distributor of dairy, meat, and specialty foods; Bel Canto Foods, LLC (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dairyland), a New York limited liability company engaged in the business of importing primarily Mediterranean style food products; The Chefs’ Warehouse Mid-Atlantic, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company engaged in a business similar to Dairyland, primarily in Maryland and the District of Columbia; The Chefs’ Warehouse West Coast, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company engaged in a business similar to Dairyland, primarily in California and Nevada; and The Chefs’ Warehouse of Florida, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company engaged in a business similar to Dairyland, primarily in southern Florida. In addition to these operating companies, the Company also owns 100% of Chefs’ Warehouse Parent, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company which owns 100% of The Chefs’ Warehouse Mid-Atlantic, LLC, The Chefs’ Warehouse West Coast, LLC, and The Chefs’ Warehouse of Florida, LLC. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards Business Combinations. In December 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-29, “Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations”. This statement requires a public entity to disclose pro forma information for business combinations that occurred in the current reporting period. The disclosures include pro forma revenue and earnings of the combined entity for the current reporting period as though the acquisition date for all business combinations that occurred during the year had been as of the beginning of the annual reporting period. If comparative financial statements are presented, the pro forma revenue and earnings of the combined entity for the comparable prior reporting period should be reported as though the acquisition date for all business combinations that occurred during the current year had been as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period. ASU 2010-29 is effective for business combinations in which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 10, 2010. Our acquisition of Harry Wils & Co. (“Harry Wils & Co.”) in the second quarter of fiscal year 2011 was not material and, accordingly, stand alone financial statements for Harry Wils & Co. and pro forma financial statements giving effect to the acquisition are not required to be included in this Form 10-Q. Fair Value Measurements. In May 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS”. The amendments in this update change the wording used to describe the requirements in GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements. ASU 2011-04 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 is not expected to have a material effect on our financial statements. Comprehensive Income. In June 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income”. This statement eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity and requires the presentation of reclassification adjustments from other comprehensive income to net income on the face of the financial statements. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and is not expected to have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations. Testing Goodwill for Impairment. In September 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-08, “Testing Goodwill for Impairment”. This statement eliminates the need to perform first stage goodwill impairment testing if, through assessing qualitative factors, an entity determines that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. This guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2011-08 is not expected to have a material effect on our financial statements.

Note 3—Derivatives Derivatives are carried as assets or liabilities at their fair values in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, “Fair Value Measurements”. We have entered into two derivative contracts, neither of which qualifies for hedge accounting. The gains and losses on these instruments due to changes in fair value are recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. We are exposed to certain risks relating to our ongoing business operations. During the 13 weeks and 39 weeks ended September 23, 2011, the primary risks we managed using derivative instruments were foreign currency exchange rate risk and variable interest rate risk. In prior years we entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge the exposure on our variable rate debt. This agreement expired in January 2011. In January 2011, we entered into a foreign exchange collar contract to hedge our exposure to variability in the Euro/US Dollar exchange rate. As part of our business, we regularly import products from Europe that require payment in Euros. This contract potentially requires us to purchase and sell Euros throughout the year to pay for forecasted imports. During the 13 weeks and 39 weeks ended September 23, 2011, the collar was used to purchase 1.1 million and 1.9 million Euros, respectively. Financial Statement Presentation The effect of our derivative instruments on our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the 13 weeks and 39 weeks ended September 23, 2011 and September 24, 2010 was as follows:

| Fair Value Measurements |
Note 4—Fair Value Measurements We account for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. We categorize each of our fair value measurements in one of the following three levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety: Level 1—Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.
Level 2—Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities include the following:
If the asset has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset. Level 3—Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity) and significant to the fair value measure. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value As of September 23, 2011 the only asset we had measured at fair value was our foreign exchange collar. Our interest rate swap was the only liability we had measured at fair value as of December 24, 2010. Both of these items are Level 2 derivatives that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. As these instruments are not designated as hedges, the changes in the fair value are reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of September 23, 2011 and December 24, 2010, our foreign exchange collar had a fair value of $83 and $0, respectively, which was reflected in prepaid expenses and other current assets. As of December 24, 2010, our interest rate swap had a fair value of $81 that was reflected in accrued liabilities. Assets acquired as part of business combinations are valued at fair value at the time of acquisition using certain Level 3 inputs. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying amounts reported in our condensed consolidated balance sheets for accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the immediate to short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The fair values of the revolving credit facility and term loan approximated their book values as of September 23, 2011 and December 24, 2010, as these instruments had variable interest rates that reflected current market rates. |

Note 5—Acquisitions We account for acquisitions in accordance with ASC 805 “Business Combinations”. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. On June 24, 2011, the Company completed its acquisition of certain of the assets of Harry Wils & Co., a specialty foodservice distribution company headquartered in the New York City metropolitan area. The operations of Harry Wils & Co. were immediately combined with our existing New York operations. We financed the purchase price for these assets with borrowings under our then-existing senior secured credit facilities. Our condensed consolidated statements of operations reflect $55 of legal fees in operating expenses related to the acquisition. Stand alone and pro forma financial information with respect to the acquisition of Harry Wils & Co. is not required to be included in these financial statements. We completed a valuation of the intangible assets of Harry Wils & Co. These assets were valued at fair value using Level 3 inputs. Goodwill for the Harry Wils & Co. acquisition will be amortized for tax purposes over a period of 15 years.

On August 2, 2011, Dairyland, The Chefs’ Warehouse Mid-Atlantic, LLC, Bel Canto Foods, LLC, The Chefs’ Warehouse West Coast, LLC, The Chefs’ Warehouse of Florida, LLC (each a “Borrower” and collectively, the “Borrowers”), the Company and Chefs’ Warehouse Parent, LLC (together with the Company, the “Guarantors”) entered into a senior secured credit facility (the “New Credit Agreement”) with the lenders from time to time party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Chase”), as Administrative Agent, and the other parties thereto. The New Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) in the aggregate amount of up to $30,000 (the loans thereunder, the “Term Loans”) and a senior secured revolving loan facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the Term Loan Facility, the “Credit Facilities”) of up to an aggregate amount of $50,000 (the loans thereunder, the “Revolving Credit Loans” and, collectively with the Term Loans, the “Loans”), of which up to $2,000 is available for letters of credit and up to $3,000 is available for short-term borrowings on a swingline basis. The New Credit Agreement also provides that the Borrowers may, at their option, increase the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Facility in an amount up to $20,000 (but in not less than $10,000 increments) without the consent of any lenders not participating in such increase, subject to certain customary conditions and lenders committing to provide the increase in funding. There can be no assurance that additional funding will become available. Unutilized commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility portion of the New Credit Agreement are subject to a per annum fee of 0.375%. A fronting fee of 0.25% per annum is payable on the face amount of each letter of credit issued under the Credit Facilities. On August 2, 2011, the Borrowers incurred $30,000 in borrowings under the Term Facility of the New Credit Agreement to repay existing indebtedness that certain Borrowers and Guarantors were refinancing in connection with our initial public offering. The final maturity of the Term Loans is August 2, 2015. Subject to adjustment for prepayments, we are required to make monthly principal payments on the Term Loans equal to $500, with the remaining balance due upon maturity. On August 2, 2011, the Borrowers incurred approximately $14,000 in borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility portion of the New Credit Agreement to repay existing indebtedness that certain Borrowers and Guarantors were refinancing in connection with our initial public offering. Going forward, borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility portion of the New Credit Agreement will be used for Capital Expenditures (as defined in the New Credit Agreement), Permitted Acquisitions (as defined in the New Credit Agreement), working capital and general corporate purposes of the Borrowers. The commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility expire on August 2, 2015 and any Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding will be payable in full at that time.
The Credit Facilities are jointly and severally guaranteed by the Borrowers and the Guarantors, including us. In addition, the New Credit Agreement is secured pursuant to a Pledge and Security Agreement, dated as of August 2, 2011 , by first priority liens on substantially all of the Borrowers’ and each Guarantor’s assets and includes a pledge of the equity interests of each of our subsidiaries. Borrowings under the Credit Facilities will bear interest at our option of either (i) the Chase Bank floating rate plus the applicable margin of 0.25% for Revolving Credit Loans or 2.0% for Term Loans or (ii) in the case of Eurodollar Borrowings (as defined in the New Credit Agreement), the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus the applicable margin of 2.25% for Revolving Credit Loans or 4.0% for Term Loans. The Chase Bank floating rate means the prime rate of interest announced from time to time by Chase, changing when and as that prime rate changes; provided that such rate shall never be less than the adjusted one month LIBO Rate on such day. The LIBO Rate is the rate for Eurodollar deposits for a period equal to one, two, three, six or nine months (as selected by the Borrowers) appearing on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (or any successor or substitute page of such service), two business days prior to the first day of the applicable interest period. The New Credit Agreement includes negative covenants that limit, among other things, additional indebtedness, transactions with affiliates, additional liens, sales of assets, dividends, investments and advances, prepayments of debt, mergers and acquisitions. The New Credit Agreement also includes financial covenants that require (i) the ratio of our consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) minus the unfinanced portion of capital expenditures to our consolidated Fixed Charges (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) on a trailing twelve month basis not be less than 1.15 to 1.00 and (ii) the ratio of the Company’s consolidated total indebtedness to our consolidated EBITDA for the then trailing twelve months be greater than (A) 2.75 to 1.00 for any fiscal month ending in our 2011 or 2012 fiscal years, (B) 2.50 to 1.00 for any fiscal month ending in our 2013 fiscal year and (C) 2.25 to 1.00 for any fiscal month ending in our 2014 fiscal year or thereafter. The New Credit Agreement also contains customary representations and warranties that must be accurate in order for the Borrowers to borrow under the Revolving Credit Facility. In addition, the New Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, including, but not limited to, payment defaults, breaches of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, defaults under other material debt, events of bankruptcy and insolvency, failure of any guaranty or security document supporting the Credit Facilities to be in full force and effect, and a change of control. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the Borrowers may be required immediately to repay all amounts outstanding under the New Credit Agreement. Lenders holding at least 66 2/3% of the loans and commitments under the New Credit Agreement may elect to accelerate the maturity of the loans and/or terminate the commitments under the New Credit Agreement upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an event of default. As of September 23, 2011, the Borrowers and Guarantors were in compliance with all debt covenants under the New Credit Agreement. |

Note 11—Related Parties The Company leases two warehouse facilities from related parties. These facilities are 100% owned by entities controlled by certain of the Company’s stockholders and are deemed to be affiliates. One of the facilities is a distribution facility leased by Dairyland from The Chefs’ Warehouse Leasing Co., LLC. The Chefs’ Warehouse Leasing Co., LLC leases the distribution center from the New York City Industrial Development Agency. In connection with this sublease arrangement, Dairyland and two of the Company’s other subsidiaries are required to act as conditional guarantors of The Chefs’ Warehouse Leasing Co., LLC’s mortgage obligation on the distribution center. The mortgage payoff date is December 2029 and the potential obligation under this guarantee totaled $11,350 at September 23, 2011. On July 1, 2005 the Company entered into a consent and release agreement with the mortgagee in which the entity guarantors were conditionally released from their respective obligations. The Company and the entity guarantors continue to be in compliance with the specified conditions. The Chefs’ Warehouse Leasing Co., LLC has the ability to opt out of its lease agreement with the New York City Industrial Development Agency by giving 60 days’ notice. This action would cause the concurrent reduction in the term of the sublease with Dairyland to December 2014. |
