Net sales were up 52 percent in the second quarter of 2010 compared to 2009, due to the addition of Folgers. Excluding Folgers and foreign exchange, net sales were down 6 percent in the second quarter of 2010, compared to 2009. Volume was up 1 percent, and was more than offset by a 7 percent decline due to price and mix, with price reductions in the U.S. retail oils and baking segment being the key driver.
The increase in net volume, excluding Folgers, was primarily led by gains in Pillsbury®, Crisco®, Jif®, and Hungry Jack® brands in the U.S., and the Company's baking brands in

Gross profit increased
Selling, distribution, and administrative ("SD&A") expenses increased 56 percent for the second quarter of 2010, compared to 2009, with the addition of Folgers accounting for the majority of the increase. As a percentage of net sales, SD&A increased from 17.8 percent in the second quarter of 2009 to 18.2 percent in 2010. Consistent with the Company's strategy of long-term investment in its brands, marketing expense increased approximately 70 percent during the second quarter of 2010, compared to 2009, in support of brand equity initiatives, including new advertising for many of its brands. As a result, marketing and selling expenses as a percentage of net sales increased from 9.6 percent in last year's second quarter to 10.1 percent this year.
Amortization expense, a noncash item, increased
Driven by gross profit, operating income more than doubled compared to the second quarter of 2009, and improved from 10.2 percent to 18.1 percent of net sales. Excluding the impact of merger and integration costs in both years, and further excluding restructuring costs in 2009, operating income increased from 11.0 percent of net sales in 2009 to 18.7 percent in 2010.

The U.S. retail coffee market segment contributed
The U.S. retail coffee market segment added
U.S. Retail Consumer Market
U.S. retail consumer market segment net sales for the quarter were down 4 percent compared to the prior year, primarily due to sales mix. Total volume in the U.S. retail consumer market was flat compared to the second quarter last year, as gains in Jif® peanut butter and Hungry Jack® pancake mixes and syrups were offset by declines in potatoes, fruit spreads, Smucker's® Uncrustables® sandwiches, and the specialty foods business.
U.S. retail consumer market segment profit increased 4 percent for the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009, mainly due to operating efficiencies. Segment profit margin for the quarter improved from 22.6 percent of net sales in the second quarter of 2009 to 24.5 percent in 2010.
U.S. Retail Oils and Baking Market
Total volume in the U.S. retail oils and baking market segment was up 3 percent, with double-digit gains in the Pillsbury® and Crisco® brands offsetting declines in canned milk. Net sales in the U.S. retail oils and baking market were down 9 percent for the second quarter of 2010 compared to 2009, reflecting the impact of price declines in shortening, oils, flour, and canned milk, and higher promotional spending on Crisco® oils.
U.S. retail oils and baking market segment profit increased 55 percent for the second quarter of 2010, compared to the same period in 2009, and segment profit margin improved to 15.8 percent of net sales from 9.3 percent in 2009. Last year's second quarter segment profit included a significant portion of the charges on commodity derivatives and accounts for most of the profit improvement in the current quarter. In addition, supply chain efficiencies, including lower distribution costs, offset an increase in marketing primarily in support of the Pillsbury® brand and a lower contribution from canned milk.
Special Markets
Net sales in the second quarter for the special markets segment increased 15 percent. The acquisition of Folgers added
Special markets segment profit increased 56 percent for the second quarter of 2010 compared to 2009, with the addition of Folgers and lower costs. Profit margin for the quarter improved from 12.7 percent in the second quarter of 2009 to 17.2 percent in 2010.
