The decrease in net income reflects the increased realized loss and decreased unrealized gains on hedging activities during the fiscal year.

Cost of sales for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2013 was $128,011,678, or 95.5% of net sales, as compared to $161,649,282, or 93.1%, of net sales for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012. Cost of sales consists primarily of the cost of green coffee and packaging materials and realized and unrealized gains or losses on hedging activity.

The increase in cost of sales primarily reflects our lower green coffee prices offset by increased realized losses and decreased unrealized gains on hedging activities. Cost of sales includes purchases of approximately $31.2 million and $31.9 million in fiscal years 2013 and 2012, respectively, from a related party.
