"This past fiscal year has been a transformational one for us as we began realizing some of the key benefits and competitive advantages from the SUPERVALU acquisition that will be the foundation of our long-term success," said Steven L. Spinner, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "As we begin the new fiscal year, I see tremendous focus and enthusiasm across the organization as we execute our strategy. This passion will be a tailwind as we drive to accelerate cross-selling efforts, realize new cost efficiencies, aggressively pay down debt and deliver results in the quarters to come."
Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2019 Summary
Net sales from continuing operations by customer channel for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 were as follows ($ in millions):
Comparable Legacy UNFI | Fourth Quarter Ended | |||||||||||
Customer Channel | Total % | August 3, 2019 (14 weeks) | July 28, 2018 (13 weeks)(1) | |||||||||
Supermarkets | 473.5% | (0.9)% | $ | 4,024 | $ | 702 | ||||||

(1) | During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, the presentation of net sales by customer channel was adjusted to reflect changes in the classification of customer types as a result of a detailed review of customer channel definitions. There was no impact to the Consolidated Statements of Operations as a result of revising the classification of customer types. As a result of this adjustment, net sales to our supermarkets channel and to our other channel for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 decreased approximately $5 million and $14 million, respectively, compared to the previously reported amounts, while net sales to the independents channel for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 increased approximately $19 million compared to the previously reported amounts. |
Gross margin for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 was 12.83% of net sales compared to 14.50% of net sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. The largest driver of the decline in the gross margin rate was the addition of SUPERVALU at a lower gross profit rate.
Operating expenses in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 were $776.9 million, or 12.13% of net sales, compared to $316.6 million, or 12.21% of net sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. The decrease in operating expenses as a percent of net sales is driven by the addition of SUPERVALU at a lower operating expense rate and the benefit of cost synergies from the SUPERVALU acquisition, both of which were partially offset by higher depreciation and amortization expense.
Goodwill and asset impairment benefit was $39.9 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, resulting from adjustments to the purchase price allocation undertaken in the fourth quarter related primarily to tax assets and liabilities acquired in the SUPERVALU acquisition. The fiscal 2019 goodwill impairment charge of $292.8 million reflects the preliminary goodwill impairment charge of $370.9 million and the favorable adjustments to the charge of $38.3 million in the third quarter and $39.9 million described above.
Restructuring, acquisition and integration related expenses in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 were $19.0 million, primarily driven by employee-related costs and charges.
Operating income was $66.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 and included the benefit from a goodwill and asset impairment adjustment of $39.9 million partially offset by restructuring, acquisition, and integration related expenses of $19.0 million. When excluding these items, operating income was $45.4 million, or 0.71% of net sales, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. Operating income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 was $49.8 million and included restructuring charges and acquisition costs of $9.6 million. When excluding these items, operating income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 was $59.4 million, or 2.29% of net sales. The decrease in adjusted operating income, as a percent of net sales, was driven by lower gross margins resulting from the addition of SUPERVALU at a lower gross margin rate, partially offset by lower operating expenses.
Interest expense, net for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 was $58.8 million and included expense of $0.3 million for accelerated unamortized debt issuance costs and original issue discount related to term loan prepayments made in the quarter with asset sale proceeds. When excluding this amount, interest expense, net was $58.5 million compared to $4.0 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. The increase in interest expense, net was driven by the SUPERVALU acquisition financing.
Effective tax rate for continuing operations for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 was 94.2% compared to 28.8% for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. The change in the effective tax rate for the fourth quarter compared to last year's fourth quarter was primarily driven by purchase accounting adjustments that impacted the goodwill impairment benefit recorded in the quarter. The goodwill and asset impairment benefit recorded in the fourth quarter increased the effective tax rate by approximately 59.8%.
Net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 was $18.9 million, including $18.0 million of net income related to discontinued operations, compared to $32.8 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. The decrease in net income was primarily the result of higher interest and tax expense, partly offset by the contribution from discontinued operations and higher operating income, including the benefit from the goodwill and asset impairment adjustment. Net loss for fiscal 2019 was $285.0 million and was primarily driven by the $292.8 million goodwill and asset impairment charge and full-year restructuring, acquisition, and integration related expenses that totaled $153.5 million.
Earnings Per Diluted Share (EPS) was $0.36 for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 compared to $0.64 for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. Net loss per common share for fiscal 2019 was $5.56 and was primarily driven by the goodwill and asset impairment charge and restructuring, acquisition, and integration related expenses.
Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 was $165.5 million compared to $85.1 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. The increase was predominantly driven by the addition of SUPERVALU.
Net debt reduction during the fourth quarter was $166 million, primarily the result of cash from operations and the proceeds from asset sales, net of capital expenditures.

(1) | The outlook provided above is for fiscal 2020 only and replaces and supersedes any and all guidance provided prior to the date hereof covering fiscal 2020 or subsequent years. This outlook is forward-looking, is based on management's current estimates and expectations and is subject to a number of risks, including many that are outside of management's control. See cautionary language below. |
(2) | Beginning with periods ending after August 3, 2019, the Company will use an adjusted effective tax rate in calculating Adjusted EPS. The adjusted effective tax rate will be calculated based on adjusted net income before tax. It will also exclude the potential impact of changes to uncertain tax positions, valuation allowances, stock compensation accounting (ASU 2016-09) and discrete GAAP tax items which could impact the comparability of the operational effective tax rate. This change is reflected in the Company's outlook for Adjusted EPS for fiscal 2020. The Company believes using this adjusted effective tax rate will provide better consistency across the interim reporting periods since each of these discrete items can cause volatility in the GAAP tax rate that is not indicative of the true operations of the Company. By providing this non-GAAP measure, management intends to provide investors with a meaningful, consistent comparison of the Company's effective tax rate on ongoing operations. |
(3) | Please refer to the tables in this press release for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. |

Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: Statements in this press release regarding the Company's business that are not historical facts are "forward-looking statements" that involve risks and uncertainties and are based on current expectations and management estimates; actual results may differ materially. The risks and uncertainties which could impact these statements are described in the Company's filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended October 27, 2018 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on December 6, 2018 and other filings the Company makes with the SEC, and include, but are not limited to, the Company's dependence on principal customers; the Company's sensitivity to general economic conditions including changes in disposable income levels and consumer spending trends; the Company's ability to realize anticipated benefits of its acquisitions and dispositions, in particular, its acquisition of SUPERVALU; the possibility that restructuring, asset impairment, and other charges and costs we may incur in connection with the sale or closure of our retail operations will exceed our current expectations; the potential for additional goodwill impairment charges as a result of purchase accounting adjustments or otherwise; the Company's reliance on the continued growth in sales of higher margin natural and organic foods and non-food products in comparison to lower margin conventional grocery products; increased competition in the Company's industry as a result of increased distribution of natural, organic and specialty products by conventional grocery distributors and direct distribution of those products by large retailers and online distributors; increased competition as a result of continuing consolidation of retailers in the natural product industry and the growth of supernatural chains; the Company's ability to timely and successfully deploy its warehouse management system throughout its distribution centers and its transportation management system across the Company and to achieve efficiencies and cost savings from these efforts; the addition or loss of significant customers or material changes to the Company's relationships with these customers; volatility in fuel costs; volatility in foreign exchange rates; the Company's sensitivity to inflationary and deflationary pressures; the relatively low margins and economic sensitivity of the Company's business; the potential for disruptions in the Company's supply chain by circumstances beyond its control; the risk of interruption of supplies due to lack of long-term contracts, severe weather, work stoppages or otherwise; moderated supplier promotional activity, including decreased forward buying opportunities; and union-organizing activities that could cause labor relations difficulties and increased costs, and our ability to identify and successfully complete asset or business acquisitions. Any forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and, as such, speak only as of the date made. The Company is not undertaking to update any information in the foregoing reports until the effective date of its future reports required by applicable laws. Any estimates of future results of operations are based on a number of assumptions, many of which are outside the Company's control and should not be construed in any manner as a guarantee that such results will in fact occur. These estimates are subject to change and could differ materially from final reported results. The Company may from time to time update these publicly announced estimates, but it is not obligated to do so.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures: To supplement the financial information presented on a U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") basis, the Company has included in this press release non-GAAP financial measures for adjusted EBITDA, adjusted earnings per diluted common share, and adjusted effective tax rate. The measure adjusted earnings per diluted common share excludes goodwill and asset impairment benefits and charges, restructuring, acquisition, and integration related expenses, loss on debt extinguishment and interest on SUPERVALU's senior notes during their mandatory redemption period, inventory fair value adjustment expense related to the acquisition of SUPERVALU, tax benefit related to U.S. tax reform enacted in December 2017, a legal reserve adjustment, discontinued operations store closures and other charges, net and the tax impact of adjustments, which tax impact for fiscal 2020 outlook is calculated using the adjusted effective tax rate. The non-GAAP measure adjusted EBITDA is net income (loss) from continuing operations before total other expense, net, (benefit) provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, goodwill and asset impairment charges, restructuring, acquisition and integration related expenses, inventory fair value adjustment related to the acquisition of SUPERVALU, discontinued operations store closures and certain other non-cash charges, net and a legal reserve adjustment. The non-GAAP adjusted effective tax rate excludes the potential impact of changes to various uncertain tax positions and valuation allowances, as well as stock compensation accounting (ASU 2016-09).
The reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the tables appearing below. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that presenting non-GAAP financial measures aids in making period-to-period comparisons, assessing the underlying operating performance of the Company and understanding core business trends, and is a meaningful indication of its actual and estimated operating performance. The Company currently expects to continue to exclude the items listed above from non-GAAP financial measures and may also exclude other items that may arise. Management utilizes and plans to utilize these non-GAAP financial measures to compare the Company's operating performance during the 2020 fiscal year to the comparable periods in the 2019 fiscal year and to internally prepared projections.

(1) | In the third quarter of fiscal 2019, UNFI expanded its GAAP reconciliations to provide additional supplemental information regarding its adjustments within discontinued operations to arrive at the consolidated measure of Adjusted EBITDA. Previously, these line items were presented together as Net (loss) income attributable to United Natural Foods, Inc. These lines have been separated to provide for a separate presentation of the adjustments included within Adjusted EBITDA related to discontinued operations. This additional information had no impact on the previously presented calculation and definition of Adjusted EBITDA. For additional information regarding our discontinued operations, refer to UNFI's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on June 5, 2019. |
(2) | Adjusted EBITDA of discontinued operations excludes $7.9 million, $0.0 million, and $32.2 million and $0.0 million, respectively, as presented in this table, of operating lease rent expense related to stores within discontinued operations, but for which GAAP requires the expense to be included within continuing operations, as we expect to remain primarily obligated under these leases. We expect to assign these leases with the obligation to pay this rent expense to buyers of our retail discontinued operations upon sale. Due to these GAAP requirements to show rent expense, along with other administrative expenses of discontinued operations within continuing operations, UNFI believes the inclusion of discontinued operations results within Adjusted EBITDA provides UNFI and investors a meaningful measure of performance. |
(3) | Amounts represent store closure charges and costs, and an inventory fair value adjustment related to discontinued operations, net of the effect of fees received from credit card companies related to a settlement. |
