-6- PUBLIX SUPER MARKETS, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements included herein are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) which are necessary for the fair statement of results for the interim period. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the fiscal 2002 Form 10-K Annual Report of the Company. 2. Due to the seasonal nature of the Company's business, the results for the three months and six months ended June 28, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire 2003 fiscal year. 3. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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. 4. Certain 2002 amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 2003 presentation. 5. In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations," (SFAS 143) effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. SFAS 143 addresses the financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. SFAS 143 requires the Company to record the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs a legal obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets. The Company would also record a corresponding asset which is depreciated over the life of the asset. Subsequent to the initial measurement of the asset retirement obligation, the obligation will be adjusted at the end of each period to reflect the passage of time and changes in the estimated future cash flows underlying the obligation. The adoption of SFAS 143 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. 6. In July 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities," (SFAS 146) effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. SFAS 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized at fair value when the liability is incurred rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. The adoption of SFAS 146 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. 7. In November 2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issued EITF Issue No. 02-16, "Accounting by a Customer (Including a Reseller) for Certain Consideration Received from a Vendor," (EITF 02-16). EITF 02-16 provides guidance for the accounting for cash consideration given to a reseller from a vendor. The adoption of EITF No. 02-16 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. -7- PUBLIX SUPER MARKETS, INC. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Results of Operations --------------------- Liquidity and Capital Resources ------------------------------- Cash and cash equivalents and short-term and long-term investments totaled approximately $625.7 million at June 28, 2003, compared to $592.7 million at June 29, 2002. Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $773.4 million for the six months ended June 28, 2003, as compared with $685.9 million for the six months ended June 29, 2002. Any net cash in excess of the amount needed for current operations is invested in short-term and long-term investments. Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $300.7 million for the six months ended June 28, 2003, as compared with $324.7 million for the six months ended June 29, 2002. The primary use of net cash in investing activities was funding capital expenditures. During the six months ended June 28, 2003, capital expenditures totaled approximately $287.6 million. These expenditures were primarily incurred in connection with the opening of 33 new supermarkets and remodeling or expanding 34 supermarkets. In addition, the Company closed seven supermarkets. The net impact of new and closed supermarkets (net new supermarkets) added an additional 1.5 million square feet in the six months ended June 28, 2003, a 4.6% increase. Significant expenditures were also incurred in the expansion of warehouses and new or enhanced information technology applications. During the six months ended June 29, 2002, capital expenditures totaled approximately $335.4 million. These expenditures were primarily incurred in connection with the opening of 29 new supermarkets and remodeling or expanding 45 supermarkets. In addition, the Company closed ten supermarkets. Net new supermarkets added an additional .87 million square feet in the six months ended June 29, 2002, a 2.8% increase. Significant expenditures were also incurred in the expansion of warehouses, office construction and enhanced information technology applications. Capital expenditures for the remainder of 2003, primarily made up of new supermarkets, expansion of warehouses, remodeling and expanding of certain existing supermarkets and new or enhanced information technology applications, are expected to be approximately $312.4 million. This capital program is subject to continuing change and review. The remaining 2003 capital expenditures are expected to be financed by internally generated funds, liquid assets or the committed line of credit described below. In the normal course of operations, the Company replaces supermarkets and closes supermarkets that are not meeting performance expectations. The impact of future supermarket closings is not expected to be material. Net cash used in financing activities was approximately $470.3 million for the six months ended June 28, 2003, as compared with $351.1 million for the six months ended June 29, 2002. The primary use of net cash in financing activities was funding net common stock repurchases. The Company currently repurchases common stock at the stockholders' request in accordance with the terms of the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Net common stock repurchases totaled approximately $394.7 million for the six months ended June 28, 2003, as compared with $285.5 million for the six months ended June 29, 2002. 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. -8- The Company paid a cash dividend on its common stock of $.40 per share or approximately $75.5 million, on June 2, 2003, to stockholders of record as of the close of business April 1, 2003. In December 2002, the Company renewed an agreement for a committed line of credit totaling $100 million. This 364-day line of credit facility is available to fund liquidity requirements if necessary. The interest rate is based on LIBOR or prime. There were no amounts outstanding on this line of credit as of June 28, 2003. Based on the Company's financial position, it is expected that short-term and long-term borrowings would be readily available to support the Company's liquidity requirements if needed. Results of Operations --------------------- Sales for the second quarter ended June 28, 2003, were $4.1 billion as compared with $3.8 billion in the same quarter in 2002, an increase of $286.4 million or a 7.5% increase. This reflects an increase of $53.5 million or 1.4% in comparable store sales (supermarkets open for the same weeks in both periods, including replacement supermarkets) and an increase of $232.9 million or 6.1% from net new supermarkets since the beginning of the second quarter of 2002. Additionally, sales for the second quarter of 2003 were positively affected by the late Easter holiday, which was in the first quarter of 2002. Sales for the six months ended June 28, 2003, were $8.4 billion as compared with $8.0 billion in the same period in 2002, an increase of $410.3 million or a 5.1% increase. This reflects a decrease of $48.1 million or .6% in comparable store sales and an increase of $458.4 million or 5.7% from net new supermarkets since the beginning of 2002. Cost of merchandise sold including certain store occupancy, warehousing and delivery expenses, as a percentage of sales, was approximately 72.6% and 72.5% for the three months ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002, respectively. These cost of sales percentages were approximately 72.8% and 72.6% for the six months ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002, respectively. The small increase in cost of merchandise sold, as a percentage of sales, was primarily driven by an increase in store occupancy costs. Operating and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, were approximately 22.0% and 22.4% for the three months ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002, respectively. The operating and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, were approximately 21.5% for the six months ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002. A decrease in payroll costs was offset by increases in certain facilities costs and other expenses. Net earnings were $161.5 million or $.87 per share and $141.4 million or $.72 per share for the three months ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002, respectively. Net earnings were $348.6 or $1.86 per share and $336.6 million or $1.71 per share for the six months ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002, respectively. -9- Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements ---------------------------------------------------- From time to time, certain information provided by the Company, including written or oral statements made by its representatives, may contain forward-looking information as defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking information includes statements about the future performance of the Company, which is based on management's assumptions and beliefs in light of the information currently available to them. When used, the words "plan," "estimate," "project," "intend," "believe" and other similar expressions, as they relate to the Company, are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those statements including, but not limited to: competitive practices and pricing in the food and drug industries generally and particularly in the Company's principal markets; changes in the general economy; changes in consumer spending; and other factors affecting the Company's business in or beyond the Company's control. These factors include changes in the rate of inflation, changes in state and Federal legislation or regulation, adverse determinations with respect to litigation or other claims, ability to recruit and retain employees, ability to construct new stores or complete remodels as rapidly as planned and stability of product costs. Other factors and assumptions not identified above could also cause the actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. The Company assumes no obligation to update publicly these forward-looking statements. Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk ------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company does not utilize financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes, nor does it utilize leveraged financial instruments. The Company does not consider to be material the potential losses in future earnings, fair values and cash flows from reasonably possible near-term changes in interest rates. Item 4. Controls and Procedures -------------------------------- As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the Company's periodic SEC filings. There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal control over financial reporting. -10- PUBLIX SUPER MARKETS, INC.
