Springfield, New Jersey – March 3, 2010– Village Super Market, Inc. (NSD-VLGEA) today reported its results of operations for the second quarter ended January 23, 2010.

Net income was $6,737,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2010, a decrease of 15% from the second quarter of the prior year.  Net income decreased primarily due to lower same store sales and increased operating expenses as a percentage of sales, partially offset by increased gross profit as a percentage of sales.

Sales were $315,309,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2010, an increase of .8% from the second quarter of the prior year.  Sales increased due to the opening of the Marmora, New Jersey store on May 31, 2009. Same store sales decreased 1.7%.  This compares to a same store sales increase in the second quarter of the prior year of 5.9%.  Same store sales decreased due to cannibalization from the opening of the Marmora store, reduced sales in three stores due to competitive store openings and a decline in average transaction size.  The Company believes that the decline in transaction size is due to food price deflation and changing consumer behavior due to economic weakness, which has resulted in increased coupon usage, sale item penetration and trading down.  The Company expects same store sales for all of fiscal 2010 to range from -.5% to +1.0%.

Gross profit as a percentage of sales increased to 27.3% in the second quarter of fiscal 2010 compared to 27.2% in the second quarter of the prior year primarily due to higher patronage dividends and lower LIFO charges.  These improvements were partially offset by increased warehouse assessment charges from Wakefern and higher promotional spending.  Gross profit was favorably impacted by receipt of patronage dividends from Wakefern greater than estimated amounts accrued in both the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and 2009.

Operating and administrative expense increased to 22.3% of sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2010 compared to 21.6% of sales in the second quarter of the prior year primarily due to increased fringe benefit, payroll and occupancy costs.  Fringe benefit costs increased primarily due to increased medical, worker’s compensation insurance and pension costs.  Payroll costs increased due to the loss of operating leverage from the 1.7% same store sale decline in the current year.  Occupancy costs increased primarily due to increased snow removal, real estate taxes and insurance costs.

Net income was $11,279,000 in the six-month period of fiscal 2010, a decrease of 21% from the prior year.  Sales for the six-month period of fiscal 2010 were $618,093,000, an increase of 2.4% from the prior year.  Same store sales decreased .6%.

Our replacement store in Washington, NJ opened on February 21, 2010. Village Super Market operates a chain of 26 supermarkets under the ShopRite name in New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania.
