PART I
Item 1. Business
- -----------------
Publix Super Markets, Inc. is based in Lakeland, Florida and was
incorporated in Florida on December 27, 1921. Publix Super Markets, Inc. and its
wholly owned subsidiary, hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Company,"
is in the business of operating retail food supermarkets in Florida, Georgia,
South Carolina and Alabama. The Company has no other lines of business or
industry segments. Therefore, financial information about industry segments or
lines of business is omitted.
The Company's supermarkets sell groceries, dairy, produce, deli, bakery,
meat, seafood, housewares and health and beauty care items. Many stores have
pharmacy, photo and floral departments. In addition, the Company has agreements
with commercial banks to operate in many of its stores.
The Company's lines of merchandise include a variety of nationally
advertised and private label brands, as well as unbranded merchandise such as
produce, meat and seafood. Private label items are produced in the Company's
manufacturing facilities or are manufactured for the Company by outside
suppliers.
The Company manufactures dairy, bakery and deli products. The Company's
dairy plants are located in Lakeland and Deerfield Beach, Florida, and
Lawrenceville, Georgia. The bakery and deli plants are located in Lakeland,
Florida. The Company receives the food and non-food items it distributes from
many sources. These products are generally available in sufficient quantities to
enable the Company to adequately satisfy its customers. The Company believes
that its sources of supply of these products and raw materials used in
manufacturing are adequate for its needs and that it is not dependent upon a
single or relatively few suppliers.
The Company operated 614 supermarkets at the end of 1999, compared with 586
at the beginning of the year. In 1999, 44 stores were opened, 16 stores were
closed, and 82 stores were expanded or remodeled. The net increase in square
footage was 1.4 million square feet or 5.3% since 1998. At the end of 1999, the
Company had 490 stores located in Florida, 99 in Georgia, 22 in South Carolina
and three in Alabama. Also, as of year end, the Company had 25 stores under
construction in Florida, nine in Georgia and one in South Carolina.
The Company is engaged in a highly competitive industry. Competition, based
primarily on price, quality of goods and service, convenience and product mix,
is with several national and regional chains, independent stores and mass
merchandisers throughout its market areas. The Company anticipates continued
competitor format innovation and location additions in 2000.
The influx of winter residents to Florida and increased purchases of food
during the traditional Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter holidays typically
results in seasonal sales increases between November and April of each year.
The Company has experienced no significant changes in the kinds of products
sold or in its methods of distribution since the beginning of the fiscal year.
The Company had approximately 120,000 employees at the end of 1999,
compared with 117,000 at the end of 1998. Of this total, approximately 70,200 at
the end of 1999 and 70,400 at the end of 1998 were not full-time employees.
The Company's research and development expenses are insignificant.
Compliance by the Company with Federal, state and local environmental
protection laws during 1999 had no material effect upon capital expenditures,
earnings or the competitive position of the Company.
<PAGE>
Item 2. Properties
- -------------------
At year end, the Company operated approximately 27.7 million square feet of
retail space. The Company's stores vary in size. Current store prototypes range
from 27,000 to 60,000 square feet. Stores are often located in strip shopping
centers where the Company is the anchor tenant.
The Company supplies its retail stores from eight distribution centers
located in Lakeland, Miami, Jacksonville, Sarasota, Orlando, Deerfield Beach and
Boynton Beach, Florida, and Lawrenceville, Georgia.
The majority of the Company's retail stores are leased. Substantially all
of these leases will expire during the next 20 years. However, in the normal
course of business, it is expected that the leases will be renewed or replaced
by leases on other properties. At 54 locations both the building and land are
owned and at 31 other locations the building is owned while the land is leased.
The Company's corporate offices, distribution facilities and manufacturing
plants are owned with no outstanding debt.
All of the Company's properties are well maintained and in good operating
condition and suitable and adequate for operating its business.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
- --------------------------
A purported class action was filed against the Company on April 3, 1997 in
the Federal District Court for the Middle District of Florida (the "Court") by
Lemuel Middleton and 15 other present or former employees of the Company,
individually and on behalf of all other persons similarly situated (the
"Middleton case"). In their Complaint, the plaintiffs allege that the Company
has and is currently engaged in a pattern and practice of race-based
discriminatory treatment of black employees and applicants with respect to
hiring, promotion, job assignment, conditions of employment, and other
employment aspects, all in violation of Federal and state law. Subsequently,
seven of the named plaintiffs withdrew their claims with prejudice. The
plaintiffs sought, among other relief, a certification of the suit as a class
action, declaratory and injunctive relief, back pay, front pay, benefits and
other compensatory damages, and punitive damages.
On March 22, 1999, the Court certified the suit as a class action, but
limited the class to those black employees and former black employees of the
Company who have sought to be promoted or who have been discharged from
employment at the Company's retail stores in Florida since April 3, 1993, and at
retail stores in Georgia since January 14, 1995. The certified class excludes
black employees or former black employees who worked only in pharmacy
operations. The Court denied the plaintiffs' attempt to strike the demand that
the Middleton case be tried to a jury. The Court also, among other things,
granted the plaintiffs' motion to drop all claims for compensatory and punitive
damages.
Plaintiffs in the Middleton case still are seeking certification of a
subclass of unsuccessful applicants and have put forward a new proposed class
representative, Lydia Moultry. The parties are awaiting a ruling from the Court
regarding whether Ms. Moultry can join the lawsuit and whether a subclass of
unsuccessful applicants will be included in the Middleton case. Meanwhile, on
July 26, 1999, the Court set the Middleton case for trial by jury beginning
January 2, 2001.
<PAGE>
On November 6, 1997, another purported class action was filed against the
Company in the Court by Shirley Dyer and five other present or former employees
of the Company, individually and on behalf of all other persons similarly
situated (the "Dyer case"). In their Complaint, the plaintiffs allege that the
Company has violated and is currently violating Federal and state civil rights
statutes by discriminating against female employees and applicants with respect
to hiring, promotion, training, compensation, discipline, demotion and
termination, and/or retaliation for bringing allegations of discrimination. The
plaintiffs have moved to certify a class of all female current, former and
future Company employees and applicants in all of the Company's manufacturing
plants and distribution centers with respect to certain claims. The plaintiffs
seek, among other relief, declaratory and injunctive relief, back pay, front
pay, benefits and other compensatory damages, and punitive damages. The parties
have briefed issues relating to class certification, engaged in oral argument on
those issues on April 16, 1999 and now await the Court's ruling.
On December 8, 1998, another purported class action was filed against the
Company in the Court by Charlene Jones, individually and on behalf of other
persons similarly situated (the "Jones case"). In her Complaint, the plaintiff
alleges that the Company has violated and is currently violating Federal and
state civil rights statutes by discriminating against female applicants for
employment in the Company's manufacturing plants and distribution centers. The
plaintiffs in the Jones and Dyer cases have asked the Court to combine the two
cases. In papers filed with the Court on April 16, 1999, the Jones case
plaintiff represented that she would not pursue a separate class action on
behalf of unsuccessful female applicants for employment in the Company's
manufacturing plants and distribution centers if the Jones case is not combined
with the Dyer case.
On June 29, 1999, another purported class action was filed against the
Company in the Court by Lisa Lisenby, individually and on behalf of other
persons similarly situated (the "Lisenby case"). In her Complaint, the plaintiff
alleges that the Company has violated and is currently violating Federal
statutory law by discriminating against female applicants and employees in the
Company's manufacturing plants and distribution centers. On September 10, 1999,
the Lisenby case plaintiff moved to combine her case with the Dyer case.
The Company denies the allegations of the plaintiffs in the Middleton,
Dyer, Jones and Lisenby cases and is vigorously defending the actions. Although
these cases are subject to the uncertainties inherent in the litigation process,
based on the information presently available to the Company, management does not
expect the ultimate resolution of these actions to have a material adverse
effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
The Company is also a party in various legal claims and actions considered
in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate
resolution of these legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on
the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

(a) Market Information
------------------
Substantially all transactions of the Company's common stock have been
among the Company, its employees, former employees, their families and
the benefit plans established for the Company's employees. The market
price of the Company's common stock is determined by the Board of
Directors based upon appraisals prepared by an independent appraiser. The
market price for 1999 and 1998 was as follows:
1999 1998
---- ----
January - February $41.00 $23.25
March - April 46.50 30.75
May - July 46.50 34.75
August - October 46.50 38.25
November - December 44.50 41.00
(b) Approximate Number of Equity Security Holders
---------------------------------------------
As of March 8, 2000, the approximate number of holders of record of the
Company`s common stock was 78,000.
(c) Dividends
---------
The Company paid cash dividends of $.22 per share of common stock in 1999
and $.20 per share in 1998. Payment of dividends is within the discretion
of the Company's Board of Directors and depends on, among other factors,
earnings, capital requirements and the operating and financial condition
of the Company. It is believed that comparable cash dividends will be
paid in the future.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
of Operations
-------------
Business Environment
- --------------------
As of December 25, 1999, the Company operated 614 retail grocery stores
representing approximately 27.7 million square feet of retail space.
Historically, the Company's primary competition has been from national and
regional chains and smaller independents located throughout its market areas.
The Company has continued to experience increased competition from mass
merchandisers. The products offered by these retailers include many of the same
items sold by the Company.
At the end of fiscal 1999, the Company had 490 stores located in Florida,
99 in Georgia, 22 in South Carolina and three in Alabama. The Company opened 35
stores in Florida, eight stores in Georgia and one store in South Carolina
during 1999. The Company intends to continue to pursue vigorously new locations
in Florida and other states.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
Operating activities continue to be the Company's primary source of
liquidity. Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $796.4
million in 1999, compared with $665.0 million in 1998 and $589.2 million in
1997. Working capital was approximately $515.3 million as of December 25, 1999,
as compared with $467.4 million and $366.7 million as of December 26, 1998 and
December 27, 1997, respectively. Cash and cash equivalents aggregated
approximately $626.6 million as of December 25, 1999, as compared with $669.3
million and $530.0 million as of December 26, 1998 and December 27, 1997,
respectively.
Capital expenditures totaled $512.7 million in 1999. These expenditures
were primarily incurred in connection with the opening of 44 new stores and
remodeling or expanding 82 stores. Significant expenditures were also incurred
in the purchase of nine additional store sites from A & P in the greater Atlanta
area and the expansion of a warehouse in Jacksonville, Florida. In addition, the
Company closed 16 stores. The net impact of new and closed stores (net new
stores) added an additional 1.4 million square feet in 1999, a 5.3% increase.
Capital expenditures totaled $357.8 million in 1998. These expenditures were
primarily incurred in connection with the opening of 31 new stores and
remodeling or expanding 45 stores. In addition, the Company closed eight stores.
Net new stores added an additional 1.0 million square feet in 1998, a 4.0%
increase. Capital expenditures totaled $259.8 million in 1997. These
expenditures were primarily incurred in connection with the opening of 33 new
stores and remodeling or expanding 19 stores. In addition, the Company closed
four stores. Net new stores added an additional 1.4 million square feet in 1997,
a 5.9% increase.
The Company plans to open as many as 54 stores in 2000. Although real
estate development is unpredictable, the Company's 2000 new store growth
represents a reasonable estimate of anticipated future growth. Capital
expenditures for 2000, primarily made up of new store and warehouse construction
and the remodeling or expanding of many existing stores, are expected to be
approximately $635.0 million. This capital program is subject to continuing
change and review. The 2000 capital expenditures are expected to be financed by
internally generated funds and current liquid assets. In the normal course of
operations, the Company replaces stores and closes unprofitable stores. The
impact of future store closings is not expected to be material.
The Company is self-insured, up to certain limits, for health care, fleet
liability, general liability and workers' compensation claims. Reserves are
established to cover estimated liabilities for existing and anticipated claims
based on actual experience including, where necessary, actuarial studies. The
Company has insurance coverage for losses in excess of varying amounts. The
provision for self-insured reserves was $144.6 million, $136.4 million and
$116.8 million in fiscal 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The Company does not
believe its self-insurance program will have a material adverse impact on its
future liquidity, financial condition or results of operations.
<PAGE>
Cash generated in excess of the amount needed for current operations and
capital expenditures is invested in short-term and long-term investments.
Short-term investments were approximately $28.2 million in 1999 compared with
$2.0 million in 1998. Long-term investments, primarily comprised of tax exempt
bonds, taxable bonds, equity securities and preferred stocks, were approximately
$398.9 million in 1999 compared with $385.6 million in 1998. Management believes
the Company's liquidity will continue to be strong.
The Company currently repurchases common stock at the stockholders' request
in accordance with the terms of the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The
Company expects to continue to repurchase its common stock, as offered by its
stockholders from time to time, at its then currently appraised value. However,
such purchases are not required and the Company retains the right to discontinue
them at any time.
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
The Company's fiscal year ends on the last Saturday in December. Fiscal
years 1999, 1998 and 1997 include 52 weeks.
Sales for 1999 were $13.1 billion as compared with $12.1 billion in 1998,
an 8.3% increase. This reflects an increase of $603.4 million or 5.0% in sales
from stores that were open for all of both years (comparable stores) and sales
of $398.4 million or 3.3% from net new stores since the beginning of 1998. Sales
for 1998 were $12.1 billion as compared with $11.2 billion in 1997, a 7.5%
increase. This reflects an increase of $404.1 million or 3.6% in sales from
comparable stores and sales of $438.6 million or 3.9% from net new stores since
the beginning of 1997.
Cost of merchandise sold including store occupancy, warehousing and
delivery expenses was approximately 74.8% of sales in 1999 as compared with
75.7% and 76.2% in 1998 and 1997, respectively. In 1999 and 1998, cost of
merchandise sold decreased as a percentage of sales due to buying and
merchandising efficiencies.
Operating and administrative expenses, as a percent of sales, were 20.7%,
20.5% and 19.9% in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The significant components
of operating and administrative expenses are payroll costs, employee benefits
and depreciation.
In recent years, the impact of inflation on the Company's food prices has
been lower than the overall increase in the Consumer Price Index.
Accounting Standards
- --------------------
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities," (SFAS 133) effective for fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 1999. SFAS 133 requires that derivatives be carried at fair value and
provides for hedge accounting when certain conditions are met. In June 1999, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
- - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133" (SFAS 137) which
deferred the effective date of adoption of SFAS 133 for one year. The Company is
currently evaluating the effect of adopting SFAS 133.
<PAGE>
Year 2000
- ---------
In order to avoid potential Year 2000 problems, the Company adopted a Year
2000 plan (the "Plan") covering all of the Company's business units. The aim of
the Plan was to take steps to prevent the Company's processes and systems, with
emphasis on mission-critical functions, from being impaired due to Year 2000
problems. Year 2000 problems result from the use in computer hardware and
software of two digits rather than four digits to define the applicable year. To
oversee the Plan, the Company established a Year 2000 Project Office. The
Project Office was staffed with representatives from the Company's Information
Systems Department, non-Information Systems business areas and outside
consultants. Additional consultants were used on an as needed basis.
Under the Plan, three main areas were addressed: information technology
(IT) systems; non-IT systems (including embedded chip technology); and supply
chain and other third party business partner readiness. The Plan called for the
Company to inventory its mission-critical computer hardware and software systems
and embedded chips (computer chips with date-related functions, contained in a
wide variety of devices); assess the effects of Year 2000 problems on the
Company's business units; remedy systems, software and embedded chips in an
effort to avoid material disruptions or other material adverse effects on
mission-critical functions, processes and systems; verify and test the systems
to which remediation efforts have been applied; and develop contingency plans to
cope with the mission-critical consequences of Year 2000 problems that were not
identified or remediated.
As of February 2000, the Company has not experienced any significant Year
2000 problems prior to or after January 1, 2000. The Company further believes
that it will not experience any material Year 2000 problems in its
mission-critical functions, processes and systems. Additionally, the Company
plans to discontinue the Project Office during the first quarter of 2000.
The Company anticipated that total costs for Year 2000 awareness,
inventory, assessment, analysis, conversion, testing and contingency planning
would be approximately $40.0 million. As of February 2000, approximately $39.0
million had been incurred. The Company does not anticipate any significant
additional costs related to Year 2000. The incurred costs include the costs of
all equipment upgrades, software modifications, software replacements, employee
salaries and consultant fees and expenses incurred in addressing Year 2000
problems. The funds to pay for addressing Year 2000 problems were financed by
internally generated funds and current liquid assets. The costs incurred to
address Year 2000 problems did not have a material effect on the Company's
consolidated financial position or results of operations.
From a forward-looking perspective, Year 2000 problems may affect the
Company for some period of time after January 1, 2000. However, the extent and
magnitude of these Year 2000 problems is difficult to predict or quantify. If,
despite the Company's reasonable efforts under its Year 2000 Plan, there are
mission-critical Year 2000 related failures that create substantial disruptions
to the Company's business, the adverse impact on the Company's business could be
material.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Stockholders of
Publix Super Markets, Inc.:
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Publix Super Markets,
Inc. (the "Company") as listed in the accompanying index. In connection with our
audits of the consolidated financial statements, we also have audited the
consolidated financial statement schedule as listed in the accompanying index.
These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement
schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Publix Super
Markets, Inc. as of December 25, 1999 and December 26, 1998, and the results of
its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period
ended December 25, 1999, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. Also in our opinion, the related consolidated financial statement
schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial
statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the
information set forth therein.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 25, 1999, December 26, 1998
and December 27, 1997
(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
------------------------------------------
(a) Business
--------
The Company is in the business of operating retail food
supermarkets in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina and Alabama.
(b) Principles of Consolidation
---------------------------
The consolidated financial statements include the Company and
its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
(c) Definition of Fiscal Year
-------------------------
The fiscal year ends on the last Saturday in December. Fiscal
years 1999, 1998 and 1997 include 52 weeks.
(d) Cash Equivalents
----------------
The Company considers all liquid investments with maturities of
three months or less to be cash equivalents.
(e) Inventories
-----------
Inventories are valued at cost (principally the dollar value
last-in, first-out method) including store inventories which are
calculated by the retail method.
(f) Property, Plant and Equipment and Depreciation
----------------------------------------------
Assets are recorded at cost and are depreciated using the
straight-line method over their estimated useful life or the
term of their lease. Maintenance and repairs are charged to
expense as incurred. Expenditures for renewals and betterments
are capitalized. The gain or loss is applied to the asset
accounts for traded items or is reflected in income for disposed
items.
(g) Self-Insurance
--------------
Self-insurance reserves are established for health care, fleet
liability, general liability and workers' compensation claims.
These reserves are determined based on actual experience
including, where necessary, actuarial studies. The Company has
insurance coverage for losses in excess of varying amounts.
(h) Long-Lived Assets
-----------------
The Company periodically reviews its long-lived assets and
evaluates such assets for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset
may not be recoverable. Asset impairment is determined to exist
if the fair value of the asset is less than the carrying amount.
If an asset is impaired, a loss is recognized.
(i) Comprehensive Income
--------------------
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard
No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," (SFAS 130) beginning
with the quarter ended March 28, 1998. SFAS 130 sets forth
standards for the reporting of comprehensive income in the
financial statements. Comprehensive income includes net earnings
and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income
includes revenues, expenses, gains and losses that have been
excluded from net earnings and recorded directly in the
stockholders' equity section of the balance sheet.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(j) Segment Information
-------------------
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 131, "Disclosures
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," (SFAS
131) effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1997. SFAS 131 provides accounting guidance for reporting
information about operating segments and requires interim
segment reporting. The Company operates in a single segment of
business. Therefore, there was no effect on the Company's
financial statements from the adoption of SFAS 131.
(k) Postretirement Benefits
-----------------------
In February 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 132,
"Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement
Benefits," (SFAS 132) effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997. SFAS 132 revises employers' disclosures about
pension and other postretirement benefit plans. SFAS 132 does
not change the measurement or recognition of those plans.
Therefore, the only effect from the adoption of SFAS 132 was in
the notes to the Company's consolidated financial statements.
(l) Use of Estimates
----------------
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 and disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
(m) Reclassifications
-----------------
Certain 1998 and 1997 amounts have been reclassified to conform
with the 1999 presentation.
(2) Merchandise Inventories
-----------------------
If the first-in, first-out method of valuing inventories had been used
by the Company, inventories and current assets would have been higher
than reported by approximately $109,379,000, $108,096,000 and
$102,393,000 as of December 25, 1999, December 26, 1998 and December
27, 1997, respectively. Also, net earnings would have increased by
approximately $630,000 or less than $.01 per share in 1999, $2,799,000
or $.01 per share in 1998 and $423,000 or less than $.01 per share in
1997.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(3) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
-----------------------------------
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in
estimating the fair value of its financial instruments:
Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amount for cash and cash
----------------------------
equivalents approximates fair value.
Investment securities: The fair values for marketable debt and equity
----------------------
securities are based on quoted market prices.
The carrying amount of the Company's financial instruments as of
December 25, 1999 and December 26, 1998 approximated their respective
fair values.
(4) Investments
-----------
Management determines the appropriate classification of debt securities
at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each
balance sheet date. Debt securities are classified as held-to-maturity
when the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold the
securities to maturity. Held-to-maturity securities are stated at cost,
adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to
maturity. Such amortization and accretion is included in other income,
net. The Company had no held-to-maturity securities as of December 25,
1999 and December 26, 1998.
All of the Company's debt securities and marketable equity securities
are classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are
carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of
tax, reported as other comprehensive earnings and included as a
separate component of stockholders' equity. The cost of debt securities
in this category is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion
of discounts to maturity. Such amortization and accretion is included
in other income, net. Realized gains and losses and declines in value
judged to be other-than-temporary on available-for-sale securities are
included in other income, net. The cost of securities sold is based on
the specific identification method.
Following is a summary of available-for-sale securities as of
December 25, 1999 and December 26, 1998:

(7) Retirement Plans
----------------
The Company has a trusteed, noncontributory Profit Sharing Plan for the
benefit of eligible employees. The amount of the Company's contribution
to this plan is determined by the Board of Directors. The contribution
cannot exceed 15% of compensation paid to participants. The expense
recorded for contributions to this plan was approximately $92,731,000
in 1999, $73,048,000 in 1998 and $69,420,000 in 1997. Effective
December 31, 1999, the Company merged the Profit Sharing Plan into the
Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP).
The Company has an ESOP for the benefit of eligible employees. Annual
contributions to the ESOP are determined by the Board of Directors and
can be made in Company stock or cash. The expense recorded for
contributions to this plan was approximately $90,256,000 in 1999,
$73,048,000 in 1998 and $69,420,000 in 1997.
The Company has a 401(k) plan for the benefit of eligible employees.
The 401(k) plan is a voluntary defined contribution plan. Eligible
employees may contribute up to 8% of their annual compensation, subject
to certain maximum contribution restrictions. The Company may make a
discretionary annual matching contribution to eligible participants of
this plan as determined by the Board of Directors. During 1999, 1998
and 1997, the Board of Directors approved a match of 50% of eligible
contributions up to 3% of eligible wages not to exceed a maximum of
$750 per employee. The match, which is made in the subsequent year, is
in the form of common stock of the Company. The expense recorded for
the Company's match to the 401(k) plan was approximately $12,715,000 in
1999, $11,484,000 in 1998 and $9,275,000 in 1997.
The Company intends to continue its retirement plans indefinitely;
however, the right to modify, amend, terminate or merge these plans has
been reserved. In the event of termination, all amounts contributed
under the plans must be paid to the participants or their
beneficiaries.

The Company conducts a major portion of its retail operations
from leased store and shopping center premises generally under
20 year leases. Contingent rentals paid to lessors of certain
store facilities are determined on the basis of a percentage of
sales in excess of stipulated minimums plus, in certain cases,
reimbursement of taxes and insurance.

The Company also owns shopping centers which are leased to
tenants for minimum monthly rentals plus, in certain instances,
contingent rentals. Contingent rentals received are determined
on the basis of a percentage of sales in excess of stipulated
minimums plus, in certain instances, reimbursement of taxes.
Contingent rentals were estimated at December 25, 1999 and are
included in trade receivables. Rental income was approximately
$9,508,000 in 1999, $8,655,000 in 1998 and $9,622,000 in 1997.
The approximate amounts of minimum future rental payments to be
received under operating leases are $9,493,000, $7,446,000,
$5,721,000, $4,070,000 and $2,387,000 for the years 2000 through
2004, respectively, and $4,806,000 thereafter.
(b) Environmental
-------------
The Company accrues for losses associated with environmental
remediation obligations when such losses are probable and
reasonably estimable. Accruals for estimated losses from
environmental remediation obligations generally are recognized
no later than completion of the remedial feasibility study. Such
accruals are adjusted as further information develops or
circumstances change.
(c) Litigation
----------
A purported class action was filed against the Company on April
3, 1997 in the Federal District Court for the Middle District of
Florida (the "Court") by Lemuel Middleton and 15 other present
or former employees of the Company, individually and on behalf
of all other persons similarly situated (the "Middleton case").
In their Complaint, the plaintiffs allege that the Company has
and is currently engaged in a pattern and practice of race-based
discriminatory treatment of black employees and applicants with
respect to hiring, promotion, job assignment, conditions of
employment, and other employment aspects, all in violation of
Federal and state law. Subsequently, seven of the named
plaintiffs withdrew their claims with prejudice. The plaintiffs
sought, among other relief, a certification of the suit as a
class action, declaratory and injunctive relief, back pay, front
pay, benefits and other compensatory damages, and punitive
damages.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
On March 22, 1999, the Court certified the suit as a class
action, but limited the class to those black employees and
former black employees of the Company who have sought to be
promoted or who have been discharged from employment at the
Company's retail stores in Florida since April 3, 1993, and at
retail stores in Georgia since January 14, 1995. The certified
class excludes black employees or former black employees who
worked only in pharmacy operations. The Court denied the
plaintiffs' attempt to strike the demand that the Middleton case
be tried to a jury. The Court also, among other things, granted
the plaintiffs' motion to drop all claims for compensatory and
punitive damages.
Plaintiffs in the Middleton case still are seeking certification
of a subclass of unsuccessful applicants and have put forward a
new proposed class representative, Lydia Moultry. The parties
are awaiting a ruling from the Court regarding whether Ms.
Moultry can join the lawsuit and whether a subclass of
unsuccessful applicants will be included in the Middleton case.
Meanwhile, on July 26, 1999, the Court set the Middleton case
for trial by jury beginning January 2, 2001.
On November 6, 1997, another purported class action was filed
against the Company in the Court by Shirley Dyer and five other
present or former employees of the Company, individually and on
behalf of all other persons similarly situated (the "Dyer
case"). In their Complaint, the plaintiffs allege that the
Company has violated and is currently violating Federal and
state civil rights statutes by discriminating against female
employees and applicants with respect to hiring, promotion,
training, compensation, discipline, demotion and termination,
and/or retaliation for bringing allegations of discrimination.
The plaintiffs have moved to certify a class of all female
current, former and future Company employees and applicants in
all of the Company's manufacturing plants and distribution
centers with respect to certain claims. The plaintiffs seek,
among other relief, declaratory and injunctive relief, back pay,
front pay, benefits and other compensatory damages, and punitive
damages. The parties have briefed issues relating to class
certification, engaged in oral argument on those issues on April
16, 1999 and now await the Court's ruling.
On December 8, 1998, another purported class action was filed
against the Company in the Court by Charlene Jones, individually
and on behalf of other persons similarly situated (the "Jones
case"). In her Complaint, the plaintiff alleges that the Company
has violated and is currently violating Federal and state civil
rights statutes by discriminating against female applicants for
employment in the Company's manufacturing plants and
distribution centers. The plaintiffs in the Jones and Dyer cases
have asked the Court to combine the two cases. In papers filed
with the Court on April 16, 1999, the Jones case plaintiff
represented that she would not pursue a separate class action on
behalf of unsuccessful female applicants for employment in the
Company's manufacturing plants and distribution centers if the
Jones case is not combined with the Dyer case.
On June 29, 1999, another purported class action was filed
against the Company in the Court by Lisa Lisenby, individually
and on behalf of other persons similarly situated (the "Lisenby
case"). In her Complaint, the plaintiff alleges that the Company
has violated and is currently violating Federal statutory law by
discriminating against female applicants and employees in the
Company's manufacturing plants and distribution centers. On
September 10, 1999, the Lisenby case plaintiff moved to combine
her case with the Dyer case.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
The Company denies the allegations of the plaintiffs in the
Middleton, Dyer, Jones and Lisenby cases and is vigorously
defending the actions. Although these cases are subject to the
uncertainties inherent in the litigation process, based on the
information presently available to the Company, management does
not expect the ultimate resolution of these actions to have a
material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or
results of operations.
The Company is also a party in various legal claims and actions
considered in the normal course of business. In the opinion of
management, the ultimate resolution of these legal proceedings
will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial condition or results of operations.
