“We continue to be proactive on a number of fronts to improve performance over the long term,” said Robert A. Mariano, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Roundy’s. "We recently closed on the sale of 18 Rainbow stores that was announced in May and we have closed the remaining nine stores not included in the sale, completely exiting the Twin Cities market. We are also closing our Stevens Point, WI, distribution center at the end of the third quarter and we implemented additional cost containment initiatives during the second quarter. Our operating results during the quarter were negatively impacted by these initiatives as well as start-up costs related to the Dominick’s stores acquired from Safeway. We are confident that the strategic actions we started in the second quarter will improve our cost structure, operational efficiency and overall execution to provide positive long-term benefits to our business.”
1 All comparisons are to the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2013. See “Discontinued Operations” for a discussion of the 18 Rainbow stores that are included in discontinued operations for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2013 and June 28, 2014.
2 Adjusted Net Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations, Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss) per Common Share from Continuing Operations and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. See the tables herein for important information about these measures and a full reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure.
Mr. Mariano concluded, “During the second quarter, we opened seven stores of which six were Mariano’s stores bringing the total number of stores to 24 at the end of the second quarter. Four of the stores were former Dominick’s stores and we opened two new stores, Mariano’s Ravenswood and Mariano’s Bucktown, in Chicago. We opened two more former Dominick’s stores in July and we have now opened 10 of the 11 former Dominick’s locations.”
Financial Results for Second Quarter of 2014
Results from Continuing Operations
Net sales from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2014 were $971.9 million, an increase of $103.6 million, or 11.9%, from $868.3 million for the second quarter of 2013. The increase primarily reflects the benefit of new stores, partially offset by a decrease in same-store sales. Same-store sales excluding all of the Company’s Rainbow stores declined 2.2%, which was due to a 3.4% decrease in the number of customer transactions, partially offset by a 1.2% increase in average transaction size. Same-store sales excluding the Company’s Rainbow stores continue to be negatively impacted by competitive store openings and the weak economic environment in the Company’s core markets. Same-store sales comparisons were impacted by approximately 150 basis points from the positive impact of the Easter holiday calendar shift between the first and second quarters. Same-store sales, including the nine Rainbow stores that were included in continuing operations for the second quarter of 2014, decreased 2.8%, reflecting the deteriorating sales at those remaining nine Rainbow stores.
Gross profit for the second quarter of 2014 increased 10.1% to $256.4 million, from $233.0 million in the same period last year. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 26.4% for the second quarter of 2014, compared to 26.8% in the same period last year. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net sales primarily reflects increased shrink, including the effect of the higher perishable mix of Illinois stores and the start-up impact of new or acquired Illinois stores, partially offset by an increased perishable sales mix.
Operating and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2014 increased to $248.6 million, from $ 204.3 million in the same period last year. Operating and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 25.6% in the second quarter of 2014, from 23.5% in the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to increased start-up labor costs and higher occupancy costs in new or acquired Illinois stores relative to the chain average. The Company also experienced reduced fixed cost leverage in its core business resulting from lower sales. The Company also incurred a $1.2 million charge relating to corporate employee severance.
During the second quarter of 2014, the Company recorded a pre-tax non-cash impairment charge of $11.1 million related to the assets of the Rainbow stores that were closed in the third quarter 2014. The Company also recorded a pre-tax non-cash impairment charge of $5.1 million for the assets at the Company’s Stevens Point distribution facility, which the Company expects to close during the third quarter of 2014.
For the second quarter of 2014, net loss from continuing operations was $13.5 million, or $0.28 net loss per diluted common share, compared to net income from continuing operations of $11.6 million, or $0.26 diluted net earnings per common share, for the second quarter of 2013. Adjusted net loss from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2014 was $3.0 million, or $0.06 adjusted net loss per diluted common share, compared to adjusted net income from continuing operations of $11.6 million, or $0.26 adjusted diluted net earnings per common share, for the second quarter of 2013. Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2014 excludes a $9.7 million after-tax charge, or $0.20 per diluted common share, for asset impairment charges related to the nine Rainbow stores and the Stevens Point distribution facility, and a $0.7 million after-tax charge, or $0.01 per diluted common share, for employee severance costs recognized during the second quarter of 2014.
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2014 was $26.9 million, compared to $44.5 million in the second quarter of 2013. The decrease was primarily due to the effect of the aforementioned items.
Year-to-Date Financial Results
Results from Continuing Operations
Net sales were $1,866.3 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2014, an increase of $130.9 million, or 7.5%, from $1,735.4 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2013. The increase primarily reflects the benefit of new stores, partially offset by a decrease in same-store sales. Same-store sales excluding all of the Company’s Rainbow stores declined 3.3%, which was due to a 5.3% decrease in the number of customer transactions, partially offset by a 2.0% increase in average transaction size. Same-store sales excluding the Company’s Rainbow stores continue to be negatively impacted by competitive store openings and the weak economic environment in the Company’s core markets. Same-store sales, including the nine Rainbow stores that were included in continuing operations for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2014, decreased 3.9%, reflecting the deteriorating sales at those remaining nine Rainbow stores.
Gross profit for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2014 increased 7.2% to $495.3 million, from $462.0 million in the same period last year. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 26.5% for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2014, compared to 26.6% in the same period last year. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net sales primarily reflects increased shrink, including the effect of the higher perishable mix of Illinois stores and the start-up impact of new or acquired Illinois stores, partially offset by an increased perishable sales mix.
Operating and administrative expenses for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2014 increased to $476.5 million, from $412.4 million in the same period last year. Operating and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 25.5% for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2014, from 23.8% in the same period last year. The increase in the rate as a percentage of net sales was primarily due to increased start-up labor costs and higher occupancy costs in new or acquired Illinois stores relative to the chain average. The Company also experienced reduced fixed cost leverage in its core business resulting from lower sales.
For the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2014, net loss from continuing operations was $20.0 million, or $0.42 net loss per diluted common share, compared to net income from continuing operations of $17.4 million, or $0.39 diluted net earnings per common share, for the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2013. Adjusted net loss from continuing operations for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2014 was $4.8 million, or $0.10 adjusted net loss per diluted common share, compared to income from continuing operations of $17.4 million, or $0.39 adjusted diluted net earnings per common share, for the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2013. Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2014 excludes a $9.7 million after-tax charge, or $0.21 per diluted common share, for asset impairment charges related to the nine Rainbow stores and the Stevens Point distribution facility, a $0.7 million after-tax charge, or $0.01 per diluted common share, for employee severance costs recognized during the second quarter of 2014 and a $4.8 million after-tax charge, or $0.10 per diluted common share, for the extinguishment of debt that occurred during the first quarter of 2014.
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2014 was $54.6 million, compared to $81.1 million in the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2013. The decrease was primarily due to the effect of the aforementioned items.
Net cash flows provided by operating activities for the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2014 was $16.6 million, compared to $43.4 million during the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2013. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was due primarily to lower operating income.
Discontinued Operations
During the second quarter of 2014, the Company entered into definitive agreements to sell 18 Rainbow stores in the Minneapolis / St. Paul market to a group of local grocery retailers (the “Buyers”), including SUPERVALU INC. (“Rainbow Store Sale”). The aggregate sale price for the 18 Rainbow stores was $65 million in cash plus the proceeds from inventory that was sold to the Buyers at the closing of the Rainbow Store Sale. In addition, as part of the transaction, the Buyers assumed the lease obligations and certain multi-employer pension liabilities related to the acquired stores. The Rainbow Store Sale closed during the third quarter of 2014. The 18 Rainbow stores are included in discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ending June 29, 2013 and June 28, 2014.
As a result of the Rainbow Store Sale and the exit from the Minneapolis / St. Paul market, the Company expects to incur a withdrawal liability related to the multi-employer pension plans in which the effected employees participate. The Company recorded a pre-tax charge of $25.8 million during the second quarter of 2014, for the estimated multi-employer pension withdrawal liability related to the 18 Rainbow stores that were sold, which represents the Company’s best estimate absent the demand letters from the multi-employer plans. Demand letters from the impacted multi-employer pension plans may be received in 2015, or later and the ultimate withdrawal liability may change from the currently estimated amount. Any future charge will be recorded in the period when the change is identified. The Company expects the liability will be paid out in quarterly installments, which vary by plan, over a period of up to 20 years. During the third quarter of 2014, the Company expects to record an additional pre-tax charge of $22 to $26 million for the estimated multi-employer pension withdrawal liability related to the remaining nine Rainbow stores that were closed in the third quarter.
In addition, during the second quarter of 2014, the Company announced its intention to exit the Minneapolis / St. Paul market entirely. The remaining nine Rainbow stores which were not included in the Rainbow Store Sale were closed during the third quarter of 2014. During the second quarter of 2014, the Company recorded a pre-tax non-cash impairment charge of $11.1 million related to the assets of the nine Rainbow stores that were closed in the third quarter 2014.
Stevens Point
During the third quarter of 2014, the Company announced the closure of its Stevens Point distribution center (“Stevens Point Warehouse”). A gradual phase-out of those operations will occur and the Stevens Point Warehouse will cease operations in the third quarter of 2014 after which time it will be marketed for sale. With the closing of the Stevens Point Warehouse, Roundy’s will consolidate its supply chain operations in its Oconomowoc Distribution Center, allowing the Company to maximize its distribution efficiencies. As a result of these actions, the Company recorded a pre-tax non-cash impairment charge of $5.1 million for the assets at the Stevens Point Warehouse. The Company estimates that it will record severance and other one-time charges of $2.0 to $2.5 million related to the closure of the Stevens Point Warehouse during the third quarter of 2014.

The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA, a non GAAP measure, to provide investors with a supplemental measure of its operating performance. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful performance measure and is used by the Company to facilitate a comparison of its operating performance on a consistent basis from period-to-period and to provide for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company’s business than measures under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (‘‘GAAP’’) can provide alone. The Company’s board of directors and management also use Adjusted EBITDA as one of the primary methods for planning and forecasting overall expected performance and for evaluating on a quarterly and annual basis actual results against such expectations, and as a performance evaluation metric in determining achievement of certain compensation programs and plans for employees, including its senior executives.
The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, LIFO charges, amortization of deferred financing costs, non-cash compensation expenses arising from the issuance of stock, costs incurred in connection with the Company’s IPO (or subsequent offerings of Roundy’s common stock), loss on debt extinguishment, certain non-recurring or unusual employee and pension related costs, costs related to acquisitions, costs related to debt financing activities, goodwill and asset impairment charges and Adjusted EBITDA from discontinued operations. Omitting interest, taxes and the other items provides a financial measure that facilitates comparisons of the Company’s results of operations with those of companies having different capital structures. Since the levels of indebtedness, tax structures, and methodologies in calculating LIFO expense that other companies have are different from the Company’s, it omits these amounts to facilitate investors’ ability to make these comparisons. Similarly, the Company omits depreciation and amortization because other companies may employ a greater or lesser amount of owned property, and because in the Company’s experience, whether a store is new or one that is fully or mostly depreciated does not necessarily correlate to the contribution that such store makes to operating performance. The Company believes that investors, analysts and other interested parties consider Adjusted EBITDA an important measure of the Company’s operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of the Company’s performance. Other companies in the Company’s industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than the Company does, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. The limitations of Adjusted EBITDA include: (i) it does not reflect the Company’s cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (ii) it does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company’s working capital needs; (iii) it does not reflect income tax payments the Company may be required to make; and (iv) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized often will have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements.
