SpartanNash Announces Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2022 Results

Provides Fiscal Year 2023 Outlook

Raises Long-Term Net Sales Target and Reiterates Commitment to 2025 Strategic Plan

GRAND RAPIDS, MICH. – Feb. 23, 2023 – Food solutions company SpartanNash (the "Company") (Nasdaq: SPTN) today reported financial results for its 12-week fourth quarter and 52-week fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2022 Highlights

"Our team continues to execute on Our Winning RecipeTM, which led to solid fourth-quarter results and fiscal 2022 performance that exceeded expectations," said SpartanNash President and CEO Tony Sarsam. "Our strategy is driving sustainable growth, and I am proud that our supply chain and merchandising transformation initiatives will continue to generate significant benefits for our customers, store guests and suppliers in 2023 and beyond. Thank you to our dedicated Associates who consistently demonstrate operational excellence, giving us confidence we will reach our long-term growth and profitability targets."

Fourth Quarter Consolidated Financial Results

Net sales increased $215.6 million, or 10.3%, to $2.3 billion from $2.1 billion in the prior year quarter. The growth from prior year was driven by increases in both the Wholesale and Retail segments, which were favorably impacted by inflation as discussed within segment section below.

Gross profit was $341.4 million, or 14.8% of net sales, compared to $322.7 million, or 15.4% of net sales, in the prior year quarter. The gross profit increase was driven by higher sales, while the gross margin rate decline was driven by cycling of inflation-related price gains in the prior year and an increase in last-in-first-out (LIFO) expense of $5.7 million, or 21 basis points.

Reported operating expenses were $332.7 million, or 14.4% of net sales, compared to $289.4 million, or 13.8% of net sales, in the prior year quarter. The increase in expenses as a rate of sales was primarily due to cycling the transition impact of the paid time off (“PTO”) policy change, which reduced prior year quarter expenses by $21.4 million. During the fourth quarter of the prior year, the Company elected to transition from a grant-based policy to an accrual-based policy, which resulted in a lower required accrual balance at the end of the prior fiscal year. Also contributing to the increase in expenses as a rate of sales were higher corporate administrative costs, which included upfront investments in the merchandising transformation initiative of $3.6 million. The increases in expenses were partially offset by a reduction in the supply chain expense rates as a result of efficiencies realized from the Company’s supply chain transformation initiative, as well as lower health insurance costs.

The Company reported operating earnings of $8.8 million, a decrease of $24.6 million, compared to $33.4 million in the prior year quarter, due to the changes in net sales, gross profit, and operating expenses discussed above. Adjusted operating earnings(2) were $22.0 million, an increase of $1.5 million, compared to $20.6 million in the prior year quarter and were adjusted for the items detailed in Table 3.

Interest expense increased $5.1 million from the prior year quarter due to rising interest rates and an increase in borrowings. Other income for the fourth quarter included $0.8 million of income related to the partial settlement of a post-retirement benefit plan.

The Company reported net earnings of $0.7 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared to $22.2 million, or $0.62 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. Adjusted earnings from continuing operations(3) for the fourth quarter were $10.2 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, compared to $12.4 million, or $0.34 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. A reconciliation of net earnings to adjusted earnings from continuing operations, as well as per diluted share, is included in Table 4.

Adjusted EBITDA(1) increased $4.1 million to $47.2 million, compared to $43.0 million in the prior year quarter, due to the factors mentioned above. A reconciliation of net earnings to adjusted EBITDA is included in Table 2.

Please see the financial tables at the end of this press release for a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable measure, prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Fourth Quarter Segment Financial Results

Wholesale

Net sales for Wholesale increased $151.2 million, or 10.2%, to $1.63 billion from $1.48 billion in the prior year quarter. The increase in net sales was due primarily to the inflationary impact on pricing, which increased net sales by 11.8% compared to the prior year, while lower case volumes decreased net sales by 1.6% compared to the prior year.

Reported operating earnings for Wholesale were $0.3 million, compared to $10.1 million in the prior year quarter. As a rate to sales, the decrease in reported operating earnings was due to cycling the $10.1 million transition impact of the PTO policy change in the prior year, a lower gross profit rate, primarily driven by an increase in LIFO expense of $6.3 million, or 34 basis points, and increases in corporate administrative costs. The increase in the expenses above were partially offset by a reduced rate of supply chain expenses as a result of efficiencies realized from the Company’s supply chain transformation initiative. Adjusted operating earnings(2) increased $6.6 million to $13.6 million from $7.0 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted operating earnings exclude, among other items, the transition impact of the PTO policy in the prior year, as well as LIFO expense and restructuring and asset impairment activity in both years.

Retail

Net sales for Retail increased $64.4 million, or 10.5%, to $677.5 million from $613.1 million in the prior year quarter. Retail comparable store sales increased 9.1% for the quarter. Retail comparable store sales increased by 11.2% due to inflation, and decreased by 2.1% due to reduced item counts.

Reported operating earnings for Retail were $8.5 million, compared to $23.3 million in the prior year quarter. As a rate to sales, the decrease was due to cycling the $11.3 million transition impact of the PTO policy change in the prior year, a lower gross profit rate, and increased corporate administrative costs. Adjusted operating earnings(2) were $8.5 million, compared to $13.6 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted operating earnings exclude, among other items, the transition impact of the PTO policy in the prior year, as well as LIFO expense and restructuring and asset impairment charges in both years.

Fiscal 2022 Consolidated Financial Results

Net sales for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 increased $712.1 million, or 8.0%, to $9.6 billion from $8.9 billion in the prior fiscal year. The increase from the prior year was due to net sales growth in both the Wholesale and Retail segments, which were favorably impacted by inflationary pricing of 10.4% and 9.6%, respectively. Partially offsetting these increases were case volume declines of 2.6% in the Wholesale segment and item declines of 1.9% in the Retail segment.

The Company reported net earnings for the fiscal year of $34.5 million, or $0.95 per diluted share, compared to $73.8 million, or $2.05 per diluted share, in the prior year. The decrease was primarily attributable to higher LIFO expense of $38.2 million, higher corporate administrative costs, including increased incentive compensation of $21.6 million, up-front investments in the merchandising transformation initiative of $10.6 million, and costs related to shareholder activism of $7.3 million, lower Retail margin rates, the transition impact of the new PTO policy in the prior year of $21.4 million, and increased interest expense of $8.9 million. These unfavorable variances were partially offset by increased sales, an improved Wholesale gross margin rate, and supply chain cost reductions as a result of efficiencies realized and lower fees associated with the Company’s supply chain transformation initiative as well as lower health insurance costs. Adjusted earnings from continuing operations(3) for fiscal 2022 were $84.7 million, or $2.33 per diluted share, compared to $74.9 million, or $2.08 per diluted share, in the prior year. Fiscal 2022 adjusted earnings exclude, among other items, LIFO expense, costs related to shareholder activism, and restructuring and asset impairment charges. Fiscal 2021 adjusted earnings exclude, among other items, the accounting impact of transitioning to a new PTO policy, LIFO expense, and restructuring and asset impairment charges.

2

Adjusted EBITDA(1) for fiscal 2022 was $242.9 million, or 2.5% of net sales, compared to $213.7 million, or 2.4% of net sales, in fiscal 2021.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

Cash flows provided by operating activities for fiscal 2022 were $110.4 million compared to $161.2 million in the prior year. The decrease in cash flows compared to the prior year was due primarily to changes in working capital. Long-term debt and finance lease liabilities increased $97.9 million for the year due to funding changes in working capital and acquisitions during fiscal 2022 totaling $41.5 million. The Company’s net long-term debt(4) to adjusted EBITDA(1) ratio increased over the current year period from 1.8x to 2.0x. A reconciliation of long-term debt and finance lease obligations to net long-term debt is included in Table 5.

Purchases of property and equipment were $97.3 million for fiscal 2022 compared to $79.4 million in the prior year, while capital expenditures and IT capital(5) totaled $102.1 million for fiscal 2022 compared to $85.8 million in the prior year. A reconciliation of purchases of property and equipment to capital expenditures and IT capital, a non-GAAP financial measure, is provided in Table 7.

During fiscal 2022, the Company paid $29.7 million in cash dividends, equal to $0.84 per common share. The Company also repurchased 1,046,538 shares of common stock for a total of $32.5 million during fiscal 2022, with an average price of $31.05 per share. In total, the Company returned $62.2 million to shareholders during fiscal 2022. As of December 31, 2022, $44.0 million remains available under the Company’s share repurchase program, which expires on February 22, 2027.

On November 17, 2022, the Company entered into an amendment (the "Amendment") to its Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement. The principal changes of the Amendment included an extension of the maturity date of the loans from December 18, 2023 to November 17, 2027 and a reset of certain advance rates for the borrowing base.

Fiscal 2023 Outlook

The following table provides the Company’s guidance for fiscal 2023:

The Company expects Wholesale net sales to grow 4.0% to 7.0%, inclusive of the net sales from a recently acquired grocery wholesaler, Great Lakes Foods, and it expects Retail comparable sales to grow 2.0% to 5.0%. The Company expects its annual interest expense will range from $37 million to $42 million.

During the first quarter of 2023, the Company will cycle a significant inflation-related price change benefit of nearly $10 million, in addition to $4 million in Retail wage investments. The Company expects the benefits from its supply chain and merchandising transformation initiatives will not fully offset these headwinds in the first quarter of 2023.

Fiscal 2025 Long-Term Targets

Building on the success of its transformation, the Company has now pivoted to growth. By continuing to implement Our Winning Recipe, the Company expects its fiscal 2025 long-term financial targets will grow:

These targets are expected to be achieved through several initiatives, including:

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes information regarding adjusted operating earnings, 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. These 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. Certain of 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.

The Company is unable to provide a full reconciliation of the GAAP to non-GAAP measures used in the Fiscal 2023 Outlook and Fiscal 2025 Long-Term Targets sections 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 routine activities. These adjustments may include, among other items, restructuring and asset impairment activity, acquisition and integration costs, severance, costs related to the postretirement plan amendment and settlement, and 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 2023 or fiscal 2025, respectively.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, the Company also provides information regarding adjusted operating earnings, 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.

At the beginning of 2022, the Company made a change to the adjusted operating earnings and adjusted earnings from continuing operations, and adjusted EPS measures to exclude the impact of LIFO expense or benefit. The Company believes the change reduces volatility associated with temporary fluctuations in inflation, enabling investors to best establish a basis for expected performance and the ability to evaluate actual results against that expectation and the industry in which the Company operates. Prior year adjusted operating earnings and adjusted earnings from continuing operations figures have been restated to align with this change in presentation.

8

Current year adjusted operating earnings, adjusted earnings from continuing operations, and adjusted EBITDA exclude, among other items, LIFO expense, costs related to shareholder activism, operating and non-operating costs associated with the postretirement plan amendment and settlement, non-operating costs associated with the write off of certain unamortized deferred financing costs related to the debt modification, organizational realignment and severance associated with cost reduction initiatives. Costs related to shareholder activism include consulting, legal, and other expenses incurred in relation to shareholder activism activities. Costs related to the postretirement plan amendment and settlement include non-operating expenses associated with recognition of plan settlement losses and 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. Organizational realignment includes benefits for associates terminated as part of leadership transition plans, which do not meet the definition of a reduction-in-force. Prior year adjusted operating earnings, adjusted earnings from continuing operations, and adjusted EBITDA exclude, among other things, LIFO expense, organizational realignment, severance associated with cost reduction initiatives and the transition impact of a new paid time off plan.

Each of these items are considered "non-operational" or "non-core" in nature.
