HAYWARD, CA (December 6, 2007) Armanino Foods of Distinction, Inc. (Pink Sheets Symbol: AMNF) The Board of Directors of Armanino Foods of Distinction today declared the Company’s regular quarterly dividend, increased its amount from $0.0125 per share to $0.0150 per share and declared a special dividend of an additional $0.0125 per share, for a total dividend amount of $0.0275 per share. These dividends will be payable on or about February 1, 2008 to shareholders of record of January 4, 2008. 

“Through the first nine months of this year,” said William Armanino, the company’s President and CEO, “our sales are up 12% and our pre-tax income is up 42% over the same period last year. We are confident that we are headed for a record year in sales and earnings. Accordingly, the board has expressed confidence in our future by raising our regular quarterly dividend by 20%. We decided not to match the amount of last year’s special dividend so that we could invest our working capital into our growing business. We believe this decision will assist us in driving the long term growth of our Company, while balancing the desire to reward our shareholders for their loyalty.”
