We remain committed to our strategic initiatives, improving execution, and profitably growing sales across all of our markets.”

Financial Results for Third Quarter of 2015

Results from Continuing Operations

Net sales from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2015 were $971.8 million, a decrease of $2.0 million, or 0.2%, from $973.8 million for the third quarter of 2014. Same-store sales from continuing operations decreased 3.4%, which was due to a 4.2% decrease in the number of customer transactions, partially offset by a 0.8% increase in the average transaction size.

Net sales for the Company’s Wisconsin markets were $619.0 million for the third quarter 2015, a decrease of $50.4 million, or 7.5%, from $669.4 million for the third quarter 2014. The decrease primarily reflects the closure of three stores during the fourth quarter of 2014 and one store during the second quarter of 2015 and a decrease in same-store sales. Same-store sales decreased 3.7%, due to a 4.1% decrease in the number of customer transactions, partially offset by a 0.4% increase in the average transaction size. Same-store sales in the Company’s Wisconsin markets continue to be negatively impacted by competitive store openings.

Net sales for the Company’s Illinois market were $352.8 million for the third quarter 2015, an increase of $48.4 million, or 15.9%, from $304.4 million for the third quarter 2014. The increase primarily reflects the benefit of new stores in Illinois, partially offset by a 2.6% decrease in same-store sales. The decrease in same-store sales was due to a 4.2% decrease in the number of customer transactions, partially offset by a 1.6% increase in the average transaction size. Same-store sales were negatively impacted by the cannibalization effect of new and acquired store openings in the Illinois market. In addition, same-store sales have been negatively impacted by the reopening of a significant number of former Dominick’s stores that were initially closed in early 2014 and are now operated by other competitors.

Gross profit for the third quarter of 2015 decreased 0.4% to $257.2 million, from $258.2 million in the same period last year. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was flat at 26.5% for the third quarter of 2015 and 2014.

Operating and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2015 increased to $256.2 million, from $248.4 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to increased occupancy and labor costs in new or acquired Illinois stores, a $1.7 million charge for a Wisconsin store closed during the quarter and higher than anticipated operating costs related to marketing and repair and maintenance expenses. Operating and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales were 26.4% in the third quarter of 2015, compared to 25.5% in the same period last year.

Net loss from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2015 was $8.6 million, or $0.18 diluted net loss per common share, compared to net loss from continuing operations of $249.9 million, or $5.19 diluted net loss per common share, for the third quarter of 2014. Adjusted net loss from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2015 was $6.2 million, or $0.13 adjusted diluted net loss per common share, compared to adjusted net loss from continuing operations of $3.5 million, or $0.07 adjusted diluted net loss per common share, for the third quarter of 2014. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Amounts” for important information about Adjusted Net Loss

from Continuing Operations and Adjusted Net Loss Per Common Share from Continuing Operations, which are non-GAAP financial measures, and for a full reconciliation of the most comparable GAAP measures.

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2015 was $21.8 million, compared to $25.6 million in the third quarter of 2014. The decrease primarily reflects the effect of the decrease in same-store sales in the Company’s Wisconsin markets and higher operating and administrative expenses as mentioned above, partially offset by a maturing store base in the Illinois market.

During the third quarter of 2015, the Company recorded a $1.4 million valuation allowance related to certain federal income tax credits that are no longer considered probable of being fully utilized prior to expiration. This amount is included in the provision for income taxes for continuing operations.

Year-to-Date Financial Results

Results from Continuing Operations

Net sales from continuing operations for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2015 were $2,952.0 million, an increase of $172.6 million, or 6.2%, from $2,779.4 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2014. Same-store sales from continuing operations decreased 3.0%, due to a 3.7% decrease in the number of customer transactions, partially offset by a 0.7% increase in the average transaction size.

Net sales for the Company’s Wisconsin markets were $1,913.9 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2015, a decrease of $90.7 million, or 4.5%, from $2,004.6 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2014. The decrease primarily reflects the closure of three stores during the fourth quarter of 2014 and one store during the second quarter of 2015 and a decrease in same-store sales, partially offset by the benefit of a new store. Same-store sales decreased 2.3%, due to a 3.0% decrease in the number of customer transactions, partially offset by a 0.7% increase in the average transaction size. Same-store sales in the Company’s Wisconsin markets continue to be negatively impacted by competitive store openings.

Net sales for the Company’s Illinois market were $1,038.1 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2015, an increase of $263.3 million, or 34.0%, from $774.8 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2014. The increase primarily reflects the benefit of new and acquired stores in Illinois, partially offset by a 4.9% decrease in same-store sales. The decrease in same-store sales was due to a 5.6% decrease in the number of customer transactions, partially offset by a 0.7% increase in the average transaction size. Same-store sales were negatively impacted by the cannibalization effect of new and acquired store openings in the Illinois market. In addition, same-store sales have been negatively impacted by the reopening of a significant number of former Dominick’s stores that were initially closed in early 2014 and are now operated by other competitors.

Net loss from continuing operations was $10.4 million, or $0.22 diluted net loss per common share for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2015, compared to net loss from continuing operations of $260.4 million, or $5.47 diluted net loss per common share, for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2014. Adjusted net loss from continuing operations was $7.6 million, or $0.16 adjusted diluted net loss per common share for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2015, compared to adjusted net loss from continuing operations of $5.5 million, or $0.12 adjusted diluted net loss per common share, for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2014. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Amounts” for important information about Adjusted Net Loss from Continuing Operations and Adjusted Net Loss Per Common Share from Continuing Operations, which are non-GAAP financial measures, and for a full reconciliation of the most comparable GAAP measures.

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2015 was $82.1 million, compared to $82.3 million in the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2014. The decrease primarily reflects the effect of the decrease in same-store sales in the Company’s Wisconsin markets, offset by a maturing store base in the Illinois market.

Net cash flows provided by operating activities for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 3, 2015 were $33.8 million, compared to $16.5 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2014. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was due primarily to higher income tax refunds.

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, including SUPERVALU INC. (“Rainbow Store Sale”). The Rainbow Store Sale closed during the third quarter of 2014. The remaining nine Rainbow stores which were not included in the Rainbow Store Sale were closed during the third quarter of 2014 as the Company exited the Minneapolis / St. Paul market entirely. The 27 Rainbow stores are included in discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2014 and October 3, 2015.

Subsequent Event

On November 10, 2015, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with The Kroger Co., an Ohio corporation (“Parent”), and KS Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Acquisition Sub”), pursuant to which, among other things, Parent has agreed to make a cash tender offer (the “Offer”) to purchase any and all of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), at a purchase price of $3.60 per Share in cash (the “Offer Price”).

The Offer is to commence as promptly as practicable (but in no event earlier than five (5) business days, nor later than seven (7) business days, after the date following the date of the Merger Agreement). Unless the Offer is extended in accordance with the Merger Agreement, the Offer will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York Time, on the date that is twenty (20) business days after the date the Offer is first commenced.

 

4


Completion of the Offer is subject to several conditions, including (i) that at least majority of the Shares outstanding (determined on a fully diluted basis) be validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Offer; (ii) the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period relating to the Offer under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”); (iii) the absence of a material adverse effect on the Company; and (iv) certain other customary conditions. There is no financing condition to the obligations to consummate the Offer.

Following the consummation of the Offer and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement and in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) and other applicable laws, Acquisition Sub will be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, at which time each outstanding Share (other than Shares owned by Parent, Acquisition Sub or the Company, or any of their respective wholly owned subsidiaries, or Shares with respect to which appraisal rights are properly exercised under Delaware law) will be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Offer Price, without interest.

The Merger Agreement contemplates that the Merger will be effected pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL, which permits completion of the Merger upon the collective ownership by Parent and Acquisition Sub of one share more than 50% of the number of Shares that are then issued and outstanding, and if the Merger is so effected pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL, no stockholder vote will be required to consummate the Merger.

The Merger Agreement contains a thirty (30) day go-shop period, which commences on the date of the Merger Agreement (the “Go-Shop Period”). Following the Go-Shop Period, the Company is subject to standard exclusivity and non-solicitation covenants, subject to customary exceptions that would permit the Company to respond to a bona fide, written and unsolicited offer that either constitutes or is reasonably expected to constitute a proposal that is more favorable, from a financial point of view, to the holders of Shares than the Offer and the Merger (a “Superior Proposal”), if the Board determines in good faith (after consultation with the Company’s financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that a failure to do so would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the Board’s fiduciary duties. The Board may change its recommendation in favor of the Offer and the Merger and terminate the Merger Agreement in order to enter into a definitive agreement for such Superior Proposal if the Board determines in good faith (after consultation with the Company’s financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that a failure to do so would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the Board’s fiduciary duties; provided, that prior to such change in recommendation or termination, Parent has the right to propose adjustments to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement so that such Superior Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal. If the Company terminates the Merger Agreement to enter into an agreement for a Superior Proposal that was submitted during the Go-Shop Period, the Company would be required to pay to a designee of Parent an $8.0 million termination fee, or a $20.0 million termination fee for certain other terminations.

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

 

11


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, gain or loss on the disposition of assets, one-time charges due to the closing of stores or a distribution facility, non-recurring gains or losses on lease terminations 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.
