(1) Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring deferrals and accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The Company has evaluated subsequent events for disclosure through the date of issuance of the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and there were no material subsequent events which require additional disclosure. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K.

(2) Current Relevant Accounting Standards

The Company regularly monitors recently issued accounting standards and assesses their applicability and impact.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), that is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 requires disclosures of reconciliation of the expected tax at the applicable statutory federal income tax rate to the reported tax in a tabular format, using both percentages and amounts, broken out into specific categories with certain reconciling items of five percent or greater of the expected tax further broken out by nature and/or jurisdiction, disclosure of income taxes paid, net of refunds received, broken out between federal and state and local income taxes and payments to individual jurisdictions representing five percent or more of the total income tax payments must also be separately disclosed.

The disclosures required by ASU 2023-09 are required in the Company’s annual financial statements beginning with the year ended December 28, 2024, with early adoption permitted.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”), that is intended to improve disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments and provide additional information about a segment’s expenses. ASU 2023-07 requires incremental line-item disclosures about each reportable segment’s expenses and expands the scope of interim disclosures to include all required annual disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets, including the newly required expense disclosures. The amendments in the ASU do not remove any of the existing requirements for disclosure of specific items (such as depreciation, amortization, or depletion expenses) nor do they change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates those operating segments, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments.

The disclosures required by ASU 2023-07 are required in the Company’s annual financial statements beginning with the year ended December 28, 2024, with early adoption permitted.

(3) Marketable Securities

The Company’s marketable securities are all classified as available-for-sale within “Current Assets” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The FASB has established three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2Observable inputs, other than Level 1 inputs in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The Company’s marketable securities valued using Level 1 inputs include highly liquid equity securities, for which quoted market prices are available. The Company’s bond and commercial paper portfolio is valued using a combination

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

of pricing for similar securities, recently executed transactions, cash flow models with yield curves and other pricing models utilizing observable inputs, which are considered Level 2 inputs.

For Level 2 investment valuation, the Company utilizes standard pricing procedures of its investment advisory firm which includes various third-party pricing services. These procedures also require specific price monitoring practices as well as pricing review reports, valuation oversight and pricing challenge procedures to maintain the most accurate representation of investment fair market value.

The Company accrues interest on its bond and commercial paper portfolio throughout the life of each bond and commercial paper held. Unrealized gains and losses on debt securities are recognized in “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)” on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Dividends from the equity securities are recognized as received. Interest, dividends and unrealized gains and losses on equity securities are recognized in “Investment income (loss) and interest expense” on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company recognized an investment gain of $6.2 million in the thirteen weeks ended September 28, 2024, which included an unrealized gain in equity securities of $653 thousand. In the thirteen weeks ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized investment income of $2.2 million, which included an unrealized loss in equity securities of $437 thousand. In the thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2024, the Company recognized investment income of $14.1 million, which included an unrealized gain in equity securities of $1.0 million. In the thirty-nine weeks ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized investment income of $6.3 million, which included an unrealized loss in equity securities of $815 thousand.

SERP Investments

The Company also maintains a non-qualified supplemental executive retirement plan for certain of its associates which allows them to defer income to future periods. Participants in the plans earn a return on their deferrals based on mutual fund investments. The Company chooses to invest in the underlying mutual fund investments to offset the liability associated with the non-qualified deferred compensation plans. Such investments are reported on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as “SERP investment,” are classified as trading securities and are measured at fair value using Level 1 inputs with gains and losses included in “Investment income (loss) and interest expense” on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company recognized investment income of $1.6 million and investment loss of $774 thousand in the thirteen weeks ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The Company recognized investment income of $3.4 million and $1.4 million in the thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively.

(7) Leases

As of September 28, 2024, the Company leased approximately 47% of its open store facilities under operating leases that expire at various dates through 2038, with the remaining store facilities being owned. These leases generally provide for fixed annual rentals; however, several provide for minimum annual rentals plus variable lease costs related to real estate taxes and insurance as well as contingent rentals based on a percentage of annual sales or increases periodically based on inflation. These variable lease costs are not included in the measurement of the operating lease right-to-use assets or lease liabilities and are charged to the related expense category included in “Operating, general and administrative expenses.” Most of the leases contain multiple renewal options, under which the Company may extend the lease terms from 5 to 20 years. Additionally, the Company has operating leases for certain transportation and other equipment.

The Company leases or subleases space to tenants in owned, vacated and open store facilities. Rental income is recorded when earned as a component of “Operating, general and administrative expenses.”

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(continued)

Two-Year Stacked Comparable Store Sales Analysis

Management is providing Comparable Store Sales Two-Year Stacked analysis, a non-GAAP measure, because management believes this metric is useful to investors and analysts. A Comparable Store Sales Two-Year Stacked analysis presents a comparison of results and trends over a longer period of time to demonstrate the effect of fluctuating economic activity on the operating results of the Company. Information presented in the tables below is not intended for use as an alternative to any other measure of performance. It is not recommended that this table be considered a substitute for the Company’s operating results as reported in accordance with GAAP.

Year-over-year and sequential comparisons are the primary calculations used to analyze operating results, however, due to fluctuations caused by declining government benefits, pharmacy sales growth, and inflationary trends in the food retail industry, management believes it is necessary to provide a Two-Year Stacked Comparable Store Sales analysis. The following tables provide the two-year stacked comparable store sales, including and excluding fuel, for the periods ended September 28, 2024, and September 30, 2023, as well as periods ended September 30, 2023, and September 24, 2022, respectively. Comparable store sales increased 2.5 percent on an individual year-over-year basis and increased 3.3 percent on a two-year stacked basis for the thirteen weeks ended September 28, 2024. Comparable store sales increased 2.0 percent on an individual year-over-year basis and increased 4.5 percent on a two-year stacked basis in the thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2024.


	Percentage Change
	13 Weeks Ended
		2024 vs. 2023		2023 vs. 2022
Comparable store sales (individual year)		2.5	%	0.8	%
Comparable store sales (two-year stacked)		3.3
Comparable store sales, excluding fuel (individual year)		3.0		1.1	%
Comparable store sales, excluding fuel (two-year stacked)		4.1

	Percentage Change
	39 Weeks Ended
		2024 vs. 2023		2023 vs. 2022
Comparable store sales (individual year)		2.0	%	2.5	%
Comparable store sales (two-year stacked)		4.5
Comparable store sales, excluding fuel (individual year)		2.2		3.1	%
Comparable store sales, excluding fuel (two-year stacked)		5.3

When calculating the percentage change in comparable store sales, the Company defines a new store to be comparable after it has been in operation for five full fiscal quarters. Relocated stores and stores with expanded square footage are included in comparable store sales since these units are located in existing markets and are open during construction. Planned store dispositions are excluded from the calculation. The Company only includes retail food stores in the calculation.
