Boulder Brands, Inc. Announces License Agreement For Smart Balance Milk

Boulder, CO – Boulder Brands, Inc. (nasdaqgm:BDBD) announced it signed an exclusive license agreement with Byrne Dairy, of Lafayette, NY, its current co-packer for Smart Balance Milk. Under the terms of the agreement, Byrne will exclusively distribute and market Smart Balance Milk; Boulder Brands will receive royalty payments.

Steve Hughes, Chairman and CEO of Boulder Brands, commented, "This agreement demonstrates our commitment to further strengthening Smart Balance's profitability and its core portfolio of products, while strategically positioning Smart Balance Milk for future growth. Boulder Brands entered into a co-packing agreement with Byrne Dairy over four years ago, and has developed a strong partnership. Byrne Dairy is one of the most successful and innovative companies in the dairy industry, has a strong base business in our most established markets, and as a result, we believe Smart Balance Milk is in good hands."

Carl Byrne, President and CEO of Byrne Dairy, added, "We are thrilled to include Smart Balance Milk in our growing portfolio of brands, as the business is transitioned to Byrne Dairy. We expect the collaboration between Byrne Dairy and Smart Balance will bring supply chain efficiencies and accelerate the growth for the Smart Balance Milk business."

Mr. Hughes concluded, "Today we made three strategic announcements that represent important steps in helping us continue to fulfill our vision of creating a high growth, high margin, health and wellness innovation platform. First, we refinanced our credit facility at reduced interest rates and less restrictive covenant terms, creating flexibility for future acquisitions. In addition, we licensed Smart Balance Milk to a strong partner, Byrne Dairy, a move that will ensure this business becomes a positive contributor to profits in 2014. Finally, we acquired 80% of Level Life Foods, a market-ready diabetes brand that will enable us to add a fourth category-elastic platform and serve a need-state vertical that targets an important consumer group. We look forward to updating shareholders in more detail on our August 1st earnings call."

The financial benefit from the milk license agreement will be provided on the Company's upcoming earnings call on August 1, 2013.
