We estimate that Tracked Channels rep's-sent 86% of the total U.S. pet food market. Untracked Channels include FDM retailers that do
not participate in Nielsen tracking (e.g.. Costco and Whole Foods), farm and feed stores, eCommerce retailers, hardware stores and military outlets.
We believe that Untracked Channels are growing faster than Tracked Channels and shifting some volume out of the Tracked Channels. We
participate in Untracked Channels as well (outside of the FDM channel), where BLUE is growing rapidly.
Published estimates of the size of the eCommerce sales of pet foods in the United States vary significantly as it is an Untracked Channel.
We estimate that in 2014 the eCommerce channel represented approximately r% of pet food sales in the United States, which includes sales
through stand-alone eCommerce retailers. as well as websites of brick-and-mortar retailers. We believe the eCommerce channel is growing rapidly
with year-over-year growth rates in the teens as commas increasingly shop for CPU online and as more eCommerce retailers offer free shipping
on pet foods.
The following chart shows pet food retail sales in the United States in 2014 for both Tracked and Untracked Channels.
