Exhibit 99.2

Portion of Form 12b-25 of Farmer Bros. Co.
Filed with the SEC on September 13, 2017

Based on current information and analysis, the Company estimates it will report:
Select Preliminary Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2017 Highlights:
Volume of green coffee pounds processed and sold is expected to increase approximately 0.9% year-over-year
Net sales expected to decrease approximately 0.3%, or $0.4 million, to approximately $133.8 million
Gross profit is expected to increase approximately $1.2 million, and gross margin is expected to expand 100 basis points to approximately 40.1%
Income from operations is expected to decline approximately $1.4 million to $1.7 million due to higher one-time costs and fewer one-time benefits
Net income is expected to be approximately $1.1 million
Fully diluted EPS is expected to be approximately $0.07
The primary factors contributing to the expected decrease in net income in the three months ended June 30, 2017 are non-cash income tax expense recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to non-cash income tax benefit of $80.3 million from the release of valuation allowance on deferred tax assets in the prior year period, higher operating expenses, higher interest expense and higher losses from derivative instruments, partially offset by higher gross profit.
Select Preliminary Fiscal 2017 Highlights:
Volume of green coffee pounds processed and sold is expected to increase approximately 5.3% year-over-year
Net sales expected to decrease approximately 0.5%, or $2.9 million, to approximately $541.5 million
Gross profit is expected to increase approximately $5.3 million and gross margin is expected to  increase  120 basis points to approximately 39.5%
Income from operations is expected to increase approximately $34.0 million to approximately $42.2 million due to a net gain from the sale of the Company's Torrance facility in fiscal 2017
Net income is expected to be approximately $24.4 million
Fully diluted EPS is expected to be approximately $1.45
The primary factors contributing to the expected decrease in net income in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017 are non-cash income tax expense recorded in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017 as compared to non-cash income tax benefit from the release of valuation allowance on deferred tax assets in the prior fiscal year, higher interest expense and higher net losses from derivative instruments in fiscal 2017, partially offset by lower operating expenses, including net gain of $37.4 million from the sale of the Torrance facility, lower restructuring and other transition expenses, and higher gross profit in fiscal 2017.
