              Publix Reports First Quarter Results and Stock Price

LAKELAND, Fla., May 1, 2006 -- Publix's sales for the first quarter of 2006 were
approximately $5.5 billion, a 7.2 percent increase from last year's $5.1
billion. Comparable-store sales for the first quarter of 2006 increased 5.0
percent. Sales for the first quarter of 2006 excluded approximately $62.0
million of sales or 1.2% due to the later Easter holiday which was in the second
quarter of 2006.
         Net earnings for the first quarter were approximately $288.4 million
this year, compared to $259.1 million in 2005, an increase of 11.3 percent.
Earnings per share were $1.70 for the first quarter of 2006, compared to $1.50
per share for the first quarter of 2005.
         These amounts are based on unaudited reports that will be filed next
week with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The company's quarterly
report to the SEC, Form 10-Q, will be available on its Web site at
www.publix.com/stock on May 11.
