Sales Growth of 3.7%, Included a 1.6% Increase in
Retail Comparable Store Sales
Reaffirms Fiscal 2025 Guidance
GRAND
RAPIDS, Mich., May 29, 2025
/PRNewswire/ -- Food solutions company
SpartanNash® (the "Company") (Nasdaq: SPTN) today
reported financial results for its 16-week first quarter ended
April 19, 2025.
"We continue to execute on our strategic initiatives and deliver
on our commitments. SpartanNash hit the ground running in 2025,
posting another quarter of growth and achieving record adjusted
EBITDA in the first quarter," said SpartanNash President and
CEO Tony Sarsam. "The team's focus on operational excellence
contributed to the quarter's strong Wholesale margins, positive
comparable store sales, and increased sales from our recent Retail
acquisitions. Our results and the success of our strategic plan
gives us further confidence that we will achieve our 2025
guidance."
First Quarter Fiscal 2025 Highlights(1)
- Net sales increased 3.7% to $2.91
billion, driven by an increase in volume in the Retail
segment, partially offset by lower volume in the Wholesale segment.
- Wholesale segment net sales decreased 2.6% to $1.96 billion primarily due to reduced case
volumes in the national accounts customer channel and the
elimination of intercompany sales to the newly acquired Fresh
Encounter Inc. stores, partially offset by higher sales in the
military customer channel.
- Retail segment net sales increased 19.6% to $947.2 million due primarily to incremental sales
from acquired stores. Retail comparable store sales also increased
1.6%.
- Net earnings of $2.1 million or
$0.06 per diluted share, compared to
$13.0 million or $0.37 per diluted share. Adjusted
EPS(2)(3) of $0.35,
compared to $0.53.
- Net earnings were lower due to planned increases in
depreciation and amortization expense, organizational realignment
expense, and Retail store wages. These impacts were partially
offset by increased Wholesale segment gross margin rate, lower
restructuring and asset impairment charges, and decreased corporate
administrative costs. Adjusted EPS(2)(3) excludes the
impact of organizational realignment, restructuring and asset
impairment charges.
- Adjusted EBITDA(3)(4) of $76.9 million, compared to $74.9 million.
- The improvement was driven by the factors above, excluding the
unfavorable increase in non-cash expenses, primarily depreciation
and amortization that impacted adjusted EPS(2)(3).
- Cash generated from operating activities of $25.8 million compared to $36.5 million.
- Capital expenditures and IT capital(5) of
$34.6 million compared to
$44.1 million.
- Returned $8.0 million to
shareholders through dividends.

Guidance incorporates both the investments and benefits from the
Company's long-term strategic initiatives, including all
transformational programs and tuck-in acquisitions. The adjusted
EPS guidance for the fiscal year also reflects an approximate
$0.30 impact due to an increase in
non-cash expenses primarily depreciation and amortization, as well
as incremental interest costs associated with recent acquisitions
and capital investments. The Company estimates that the
53rd week will contribute net sales of $0.2 billion, adjusted EBITDA of $4.0 million and adjusted EPS of $0.06.

and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
("Exchange Act"), about the plans, strategies, objectives, goals or
expectations of the Company. These forward-looking statements may
be identifiable by words or phrases indicating that the Company or

"believes," "intends," or "estimates," or that a particular
occurrence or event "may," "could," "should," "will" or "will

particular result or occurrence, that a development is an
"opportunity," "priority," "strategy," "focus," that the Company is
"positioned" for a particular result, or similarly stated
expectations. Undue reliance should not be placed on these
forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made.
Forward-looking statements are necessarily based on estimates and
assumptions that are inherently subject to significant business,
economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of
which, with respect to future business decisions, are subject to
change. These uncertainties and contingencies may affect actual
results and could cause actual results to differ materially. These
risks and uncertainties include the Company's ability to compete in
an extremely competitive industry; the Company's dependence on
certain major customers; the Company's ability to implement its
growth strategy and transformation initiatives; the Company's
ability to implement its growth strategy through acquisitions and
successfully integrate acquired businesses; disruptions to the
Company's information technology systems and security network,
including security breaches and cyber-attacks; impacts to the
availability and performance of the Company's information
technology systems; changes in relationships with the Company's
vendor base; changes in product availability and product pricing
from vendors; macroeconomic uncertainty, including rising
inflation, potential economic recession, tariffs and increasing
interest rates; difficulty attracting and retaining well-qualified
Associates and effectively managing increased labor costs; failure
to successfully retain or manage transitions with executive leaders
and other key personnel; changes in geopolitical conditions;
impairment charges for goodwill or other long-lived assets; impacts
to the Company's business and reputation due to focus on
environmental, social and governance matters; customers to whom the
Company extends credit or for whom the Company guarantees loans may
fail to repay the Company; disruptions associated with severe
weather conditions and natural disasters, including effects from
climate change; disruptions associated with disease outbreaks; the
Company's ability to manage its private brand program for U.S.
military commissaries, including the termination of the program or
not achieving the desired results; the Company's level of
indebtedness; interest rate fluctuations; the Company's ability to
service its debt and to comply with debt covenants; changes in
government regulations; labor relations issues; changes in the
military commissary system, including its supply chain, or in the
level of governmental funding; product recalls and other
product-related safety concerns; cost increases related to
multi-employer pension plans; and other risks and uncertainties
listed under "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in the
Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in subsequent
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Additional
risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company or that
the Company currently believes are immaterial also may impair its
business, operations, liquidity, financial condition and prospects.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with
GAAP, the Company also provides information regarding adjusted
earnings from continuing operations, as well as per diluted share
("adjusted EPS"), net long-term debt, capital expenditures and IT
capital, and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation
and amortization ("adjusted EBITDA"). These are non-GAAP financial
measures, as defined below, and are used by management to allocate
resources, assess performance against its peers and evaluate
overall performance. The Company believes these measures provide
useful information for both management and its investors. The
Company believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors
because they provide additional understanding of the trends and
special circumstances that affect its business. These measures
provide useful supplemental information that helps investors to
establish a basis for expected performance and the ability to
evaluate actual results against that expectation. The measures,
when considered in connection with GAAP results, can be used to
assess the overall performance of the Company as well as assess the
Company's performance against its peers. These measures are also
used as a basis for certain compensation programs sponsored by the
Company. In addition, securities analysts, fund managers and other
shareholders and stakeholders that communicate with the Company
request its financial results in these adjusted formats.
Current year adjusted earnings from continuing operations, and
adjusted EBITDA exclude, among other items, LIFO expense,
organizational realignment, and severance associated with cost
reduction initiatives. Current year organizational realignment
includes consulting and severance costs associated with the
Company's long-term plan, which relates to the reorganization of
certain functions. Prior year adjusted earnings from continuing
operations, and adjusted EBITDA exclude, among other items, LIFO
expense, organizational realignment, severance associated with cost
reduction initiatives, a non-routine settlement related to a legal
matter resulting from a previously closed operation that was
resolved during the prior year and operating and non-operating
costs associated with the postretirement plan amendment and
settlement. Costs related to the postretirement plan amendment and
settlement include non-operating expenses associated with
amortization of the prior service credit related to the amendment
of the retiree medical plan, which are adjusted out of adjusted
earnings from continuing operations. Postretirement plan amendment
and settlement costs also include operating expenses related to
payroll taxes which are adjusted out of all non-GAAP financial
measures.
Each of these items are considered "non-operational" or
"non-core" in nature.
The Company is unable to provide a full reconciliation of the
GAAP to non-GAAP measures used in the Fiscal 2025 Outlook section
of this press release without unreasonable effort because it is not
possible to predict certain adjustment items with a reasonable
degree of certainty since they are not yet known or quantifiable,
and do not relate to the Company's normal operating activities.
These adjustments may include, among other items, restructuring and
asset impairment activity, acquisition and integration costs,
severance, organizational realignment costs, and the impact of
adjustments to the LIFO inventory reserve. This information is
dependent upon future events, which may be outside of the Company's
control and could have a significant impact on its GAAP financial
results for fiscal 2025.

Notes: Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation
and Amortization ("adjusted EBITDA") is a non-GAAP operating
financial measure that the Company defines as net earnings plus
interest, discontinued operations, depreciation and amortization,
and other non-cash items including share-based payments (equity
awards measured in accordance with ASC 718, Stock Compensation,
which include both stock-based compensation to employees and stock
warrants issued to non-employees) and the LIFO provision, as well
as adjustments for items that do not reflect the ongoing operating
activities of the Company.
Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA by segment are not measures
of performance under GAAP and should not be considered as a
substitute for net earnings, cash flows from operating activities
and other income or cash flow statement data. The Company's
definitions of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA by segment may
not be identical to similarly titled measures reported by other
companies.

Notes: Adjusted earnings from continuing operations, as well as
per diluted share ("adjusted EPS"), is a non-GAAP operating
financial measure that the Company defines as net earnings plus or
minus adjustments for items that do not reflect the ongoing
operating activities of the Company and costs associated with the
closing of operational locations.
Adjusted earnings from continuing operations is not a measure of
performance under GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute
for net earnings, cash flows from operating activities and other
income or cash flow statement data. The Company's definition of
adjusted earnings from continuing operations may not be identical
to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Notes: Net long-term debt is a non-GAAP financial measure that
is defined as long-term debt and finance lease obligations plus
current maturities of long-term debt and finance lease
obligations less cash and cash equivalents. The Company believes
both management and its investors find the information useful
because it reflects the amount of long-term debt obligations that
are not covered by available cash. Net long-term debt is not a
substitute for GAAP financial measures and may differ from
similarly titled measures of other companies.

Notes: Capital expenditures and IT capital is a non-GAAP
financial measure calculated by adding spending related to the
development of cloud computing applications to capital
expenditures, the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Cloud
computing spend only includes costs incurred during the application
development phase and does not include ongoing costs of hosting or
maintenance associated with these applications, which are expensed
as incurred. The Company believes it is a useful indicator of the
Company's investment in its facilities and systems as it
transitions to more cloud-based IT systems. Capital expenditures
and IT capital is not a substitute for GAAP financial measures and
may differ from similarly titled measures of other companies.
