SFW HOLDING CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - GENERAL
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the
financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those
estimates.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company as of April
29, 2000, and for the 13 weeks ended April 29, 2000, and May 1, 1999, have not
been audited. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted from the accompanying
consolidated financial statements.
In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying consolidated financial
statements reflect all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments)
necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of April
29, 2000, and the results of its operations for the 13-week periods ended April
29, 2000, and May 1, 1999.
NOTE 2 - ACQUISITION
On August 31, 1999, Richfood Holdings, Inc. ("Richfood") was acquired in a
merger by a wholly-owned subsidiary of SUPERVALU INC., a Delaware corporation
("SUPERVALU"), and the Company became an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of
SUPERVALU at that time ("the SUPERVALU acquisition"). Prior to August 31, 1999,
the Company was an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Richfood. SUPERVALU has
accounted for the acquisition of Richfood using the purchase method of
accounting and, accordingly, a new accounting basis was established as of August
30, 1999 and was used for the remaining twenty-two weeks of fiscal 2000. The
assets and liabilities of SFW were restated to reflect their estimated fair
market values as of that date. The excess of the purchase price paid for the
Company over its net assets acquired (goodwill) of $310,076 has been pushed down
to the Company. The goodwill is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 40
years. Certain financial statements and related footnote amounts for periods
prior to the SUPERVALU acquisition may not be comparable to corresponding
amounts subsequent to the acquisition.
NOTE 3 - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The April 29, 2000 consolidated balance sheet includes $49.3 million due to
affiliates compared to $52.0 million at January 29, 2000. The $49.3 million
consists primarily of amounts due to SUPERVALU for the purchase of bonds and
amounts due for inventory purchases and general and administrative expenses.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Cautionary Statements for Purposes of the Safe Harbor Provisions of the Private
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
----------------------------------------
Any statements in this report regarding the Company's outlook for its businesses
and their respective markets, such as projections of future performance,
statements of management's plans and objectives, forecasts of market trends and
other matters, are forward-looking statements based on management's assumptions
and beliefs. Such statements may be identified by such words or phrases as "will
likely result," "are expected to," "will continue," "outlook," "is anticipated,"
"estimate," "project," "management believes" or similar expressions. Such
forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in such
forward-looking statements and no assurance can be given that the results in any
forward-looking statement
<PAGE>
will be achieved. For these statements, the Company claims the protection of the
safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Results of Operations
---------------------
Sales decreased by $5.5 million to $214.6 million during the 13 weeks ended
April 29, 2000, compared to $220.1 million during the 13 weeks ended May 1,
1999, a decrease of 2.5%. This decrease was due primarily to a decrease in
comparable store sales of 2.7% for the 13 weeks ended April 29, 2000, compared
to the corresponding period of the prior year. The decrease in comparable store
sales was due primarily to increased competition.
Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, remained essentially flat at
approximately 25.0% during both the 13 weeks ended April 29, 2000 and the 13
weeks ended May 1, 1999.
Selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, were 22.2% for
the 13 weeks ended April 29, 2000, compared to 21.7% for the 13 weeks ended May
1, 1999, reflecting flat expense levels year over year on a reduced sales basis.
Operating income was $5.8 million for the 13 weeks ended April 29, 2000,
compared to $7.3 million for the 13 weeks ended May 1, 1999. The decrease was
primarily due to the decrease in sales.
Interest income increased to approximately $1.0 million for the 13 weeks ended
April 29, 2000, compared to $0.9 million for the 13 weeks ended May 1, 1999, due
to an increase in the interest on the note receivable.
Interest expense decreased approximately $0.7 million, to $3.6 million for the
13 weeks ended April 29, 2000, compared to $4.3 million for the 13 weeks ended
May 1, 1999, an 18.6% decrease. The reduction in interest expense was due to the
retirement of $24.6 million of the Senior Notes in October 1999.
The effective income tax rate for the 13 weeks ended April 29, 2000, was 56.4%
compared to 56.0% for the 13 weeks ended May 1, 1999. The increase is primarily
attributable to decreased taxable earnings in relation to the fixed amount of
acquisition non-deductible goodwill associated with the SUPERVALU acquisition.
Net income was $1.4 million for the 13 weeks ended April 29, 2000 compared to
$1.7 million for the 13 weeks ended May 1, 1999, a decrease of 17.6%.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------
During the 13 weeks ended April 29, 2000, operating activities provided net cash
of $4.7 million, compared to $8.7 million provided during the 13 weeks ended May
1, 1999. The decrease was due primarily to higher inventory levels, partially
offset by an increase in accounts payable, and the decrease in deferred taxes.
Investing activities used net cash of $3.9 million during the 13 weeks ended
April 29, 2000, compared to $0.8 million for the 13 weeks ended May 1, 1999. The
increase was due mainly to $14.8 million of capital expenditures occurring
during the first quarter of fiscal 2001, of which $10.9 million were funded
through capital leases. The Company estimates that it will make total capital
expenditures of approximately $44.3 million during the 52 weeks ending January
27, 2001, of which $23.0 million relates to capital leases for new stores.
Management expects that these capital expenditures will be financed primarily
through cash flows from operations, cash provided by affiliated companies and
capital leases.
Financing activities used $3.1 million during the 13 weeks ended April 29, 2000,
compared to using $13.0 million during the 13 weeks ended May 1, 1999. The
decrease was primarily due to the change in cash provided to affiliated
companies.
The Company believes that cash flows from Shoppers' operations as well as cash
provided by affiliated companies will be adequate to meet its anticipated
requirements for working capital, debt service, and capital expenditures.
