Albertsons Companies, Inc. (NYSE: ACI) (the "Company") today
reported results for the third quarter of fiscal 2023, which ended
December 2, 2023.
Third Quarter of Fiscal 2023
Highlights
- Identical sales increased 2.9%
- Digital sales increased 21%
- Loyalty members increased 17% to 38.5 million
- Net income of $361 million, or $0.62 per share
- Adjusted net income of $462 million, or $0.79 per share
- Adjusted EBITDA of $1,107 million
"We delivered another solid quarter amidst a challenging
economic backdrop," said Vivek Sankaran, CEO. "We want to thank all
our teams for their commitment to serving our customers and
communities. As we look ahead, our ambition is to create Customers
for Life, in part through our focus on operational excellence in
our stores, driving growth in our digital and pharmacy operations,
and deepening our relationships with our customers."
Mr. Sankaran continued, "While we are benefiting from our
productivity initiatives, we expect to continue to see the impacts
of investments in associate wages and benefits, cycling significant
prior year food inflation, customers receiving less government
assistance, the resumption of student loan payments and other types
of payment deferrals, inflationary cost increases and the outsized
growth of our pharmacy and digital businesses as we continue to
lean into increased customer engagement in our Customers for Life
strategy."
Third Quarter of Fiscal 2023
Results
Net sales and other revenue was $18.6 billion during the 12
weeks ended December 2, 2023 ("third quarter of fiscal 2023")
compared to $18.2 billion during the 12 weeks ended December 3,
2022 ("third quarter of fiscal 2022"). The increase was driven by
the Company's 2.9% increase in identical sales, with strong growth
in pharmacy sales driving the identical sales increase. We also
continued to grow our digital business with a 21% sales increase
during the third quarter of fiscal 2023.
Gross margin rate decreased to 28.0% during the third quarter of
fiscal 2023 compared to 28.2% during the third quarter of fiscal
2022. Excluding the impact of fuel and LIFO expense, gross margin
rate decreased 64 basis points compared to the third quarter of
fiscal 2022. The strong growth in pharmacy operations, which
carries an overall lower gross margin rate, and increases in shrink
were the primary drivers of the decrease, partially offset by our
procurement and sourcing productivity initiatives. The rate
decrease related to pharmacy operations was primarily due to growth
in pharmacy sales and a lower margin rate on COVID-19 vaccines in
the third quarter of fiscal 2023. In addition, the benefits from
our productivity initiatives allowed us to continue to provide
incremental targeted price investments to our customers during the
third quarter of fiscal 2023.
Selling and administrative expenses decreased to 24.8% of Net
sales and other revenue during the third quarter of fiscal 2023
compared to 25.0% during the third quarter of fiscal 2022.
Excluding the impact of fuel, Selling and administrative expenses
as a percentage of Net sales and other revenue decreased 28 basis
points. The decrease in Selling and administrative expenses as a
percentage of Net sales and other revenue was primarily
attributable to lower employee costs, which includes the benefit of
ongoing productivity initiatives, and lower depreciation and
amortization, partially offset by an increase in operating expenses
related to the expansion of our digital and omnichannel
capabilities, ongoing Merger-related costs, increased store
occupancy costs and additional third-party store security
services.
Net loss on property dispositions and impairment losses was
$23.9 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to
$7.3 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2022.
Interest expense, net was $116.3 million during the third
quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $84.3 million during the third
quarter of fiscal 2022. The increase in interest expense, net was
primarily attributable to lower interest income, as well as higher
average outstanding borrowings and higher average interest
rates.
Other income, net was $6.7 million during the third quarter of
fiscal 2023 compared to other expense, net of $1.7 million during
the third quarter of fiscal 2022.
Income tax expense was $95.1 million, representing a 20.8%
effective tax rate, during the third quarter of fiscal 2023
compared to $120.9 million, representing a 24.4% effective tax
rate, during the third quarter of fiscal 2022. The favorability in
the effective income tax rate in the third quarter of fiscal 2023
was primarily due to an increase in federal tax credits.
Net income was $361.4 million, or $0.62 per share, during the
third quarter of fiscal 2023. Net income was $375.5 million, or
$0.20 per share, during the third quarter of fiscal 2022. Net
income per share during the third quarter of fiscal 2022 includes a
$0.45 per share reduction related to the special cash dividend of
$6.85 per share attributable to holders of convertible preferred
stock on an as-converted basis.
Adjusted net income was $462.3 million, or $0.79 per share,
during the third quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $505.1 million,
or $0.87 per share, during the third quarter of fiscal 2022.
Adjusted EBITDA was $1,106.5 million, or 6.0% of Net sales and
other revenue, during the third quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to
$1,158.0 million, or 6.4% of Net sales and other revenue, during
the third quarter of fiscal 2022. As we look ahead to the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2023, we expect continued outsized growth and
margin impact in our pharmacy and digital operations.
Capital Expenditures
During the first 40 weeks of fiscal 2023, capital expenditures
were $1,535.0 million, which primarily included the completion of
115 remodels, the opening of five new stores and continued
investment in our digital and technology platforms.
Merger Agreement
On October 13, 2022, the Company entered into an Agreement and
Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with The Kroger Company
("Kroger") and Kettle Merger Sub, Inc. Under the terms of the
Merger Agreement, Kroger (through Kettle Merger Sub, Inc.) will
acquire all of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock
for total consideration of $34.10 per share, reduced by the special
cash dividend of $6.85 per share paid on January 20, 2023 (the
"Merger"). Details regarding the Merger Agreement and the
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement can be found in
the Form 8-K filed on October 14, 2022 and the joint press release
issued by the Company and Kroger on October 14, 2022.
In connection with the Merger, on September 8, 2023, the Company
and Kroger announced that the parties had entered into a definitive
agreement, dated September 8, 2023, with C&S Wholesale Grocers,
LLC ("C&S") for the sale of select stores, banners,
distribution centers, offices and private label brands to C&S.
Also on September 8, 2023, Kroger notified the Company that, in
accordance with the Merger Agreement, Kroger intends to sell the
SpinCo Business (as defined in the Merger Agreement) to C&S. As
a result, the creation of SpinCo and spin-off previously
contemplated by the Company and Kroger is no longer a requirement
under the Merger Agreement and will no longer be pursued by the
Company and Kroger. Details regarding the definitive agreement with
C&S can be found in the Form 8-K filed on September 8, 2023 and
the joint press release issued by the Company and Kroger on
September 8, 2023.

Non-GAAP Measures and Identical
Sales
Non-GAAP Measures. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income,
Adjusted net income per Class A common share and Net debt ratio
(collectively, the "Non-GAAP Measures") are performance measures
that provide supplemental information the Company believes is
useful to analysts and investors to evaluate its ongoing results of
operations, when considered alongside other GAAP measures such as
net income, operating income, gross margin, and net income per
Class A common share. These Non-GAAP Measures exclude the financial
impact of items management does not consider in assessing the
Company's ongoing core operating performance, and thereby provide
useful measures to analysts and investors of its operating
performance on a period-to-period basis. Other companies may have
different definitions of Non-GAAP Measures and provide for
different adjustments, and comparability to the Company's results
of operations may be impacted by such differences. The Company also
uses Adjusted EBITDA and Net debt ratio for board of director and
bank compliance reporting. The Company's presentation of Non-GAAP
Measures should not be construed as an inference that its future
results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.
Identical Sales. As used in this earnings release, the term
"identical sales" includes stores operating during the same period
in both the current fiscal year and the prior fiscal year,
comparing sales on a daily basis. Direct to consumer digital sales
are included in identical sales, and fuel sales are excluded from
identical sales.
