PUBLIX SUPER MARKETS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(1)Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Publix Super Markets, Inc. and subsidiaries (Company) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, the accompanying statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments that are of a normal and recurring nature necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position and results of operations. Due to the seasonal nature of the Company’s business, the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 may not necessarily be indicative of the results for the entire 2024 fiscal year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2023 (Annual Report).
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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.
(2)Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and accounts payable, approximates their respective carrying amounts due to their short-term maturity.
The fair value of investments is based on market prices using the following measurement categories:
Level 1 – Fair value is determined by using quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. Investments included in this category are equity securities (primarily exchange traded funds).
Level 2 – Fair value is determined by using other than quoted prices. By using observable inputs (for example, benchmark yields, interest rates, reported trades and broker dealer quotes), the fair value is determined through processes such as benchmark curves, benchmarking of similar securities and matrix pricing of corporate and government-sponsored agency bonds by using pricing of similar bonds based on coupons, ratings and maturities. Investments included in this category are debt securities (primarily taxable bonds), including restricted investments in taxable bonds held as collateral.
Level 3 – Fair value is determined by using other than observable inputs. Fair value is determined by using the best information available in the circumstances and requires significant management judgment or estimation. No investments are currently included in this category.
Following is a summary of fair value measurements for investments as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023:

There were 525 debt securities contributing to the total unrealized losses of $564 million as of June 29, 2024. Unrealized losses related to debt securities are primarily due to increases in interest rates that occurred since the debt securities were purchased. The Company continues to receive scheduled principal and interest payments on these debt securities.
(b)Equity Securities
Equity securities are measured at fair value with net unrealized gains and losses from changes in the fair value recognized in earnings (fair value adjustment). The fair value of equity securities was $3.1 billion and $2.7 billion as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively.
(c)Investment Income (Loss)
Net realized gain or loss on investments represents the difference between the cost and the proceeds from the sale of debt and equity securities. The net realized gain or loss on investments excludes the net gain or loss on the sale of equity securities previously recognized through the fair value adjustment, which is presented separately in the following table.

(4)Retirement Plan
The Company has a trusteed, noncontributory Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) for the benefit of eligible employees. Since the Company’s common stock is not traded on an established securities market, the ESOP includes a put option for shares of the Company’s common stock distributed from the ESOP. Shares are distributed from the ESOP primarily to separated vested participants and certain eligible participants who elect to diversify their account balances. Under the Company’s administration of the ESOP’s put option, if the owners of distributed shares desire to sell their shares, the Company is required to purchase the shares at fair value for a specified time period after distribution of the shares from the ESOP. The fair value of distributed shares subject to the put option totaled $669 million and $604 million as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively. The cost of the shares held by the ESOP totaled $3.9 billion and $3.6 billion as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively. Due to the Company’s obligation under the put option, the distributed shares subject to the put option and the shares held by the ESOP are classified as temporary equity in the mezzanine section of the condensed consolidated balance sheets and totaled $4.6 billion and $4.2 billion as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively. The fair value of the shares held by the ESOP totaled $11.9 billion and $11.2 billion as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The objective of this section is to provide a summary of material information relevant to enhancing the stockholders’ understanding of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company. Following is an analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 as compared with the three and six months ended July 1, 2023. This information should be read in conjunction with the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes and the Annual Report.
Overview
The Company is engaged in the retail food industry and as of June 29, 2024 operated 1,377 supermarkets in Florida, Georgia, Alabama, South Carolina, Tennessee, North Carolina, Virginia and Kentucky. The Company has no other significant lines of business or industry segments. For the six months ended June 29, 2024, 23 supermarkets were opened (including five replacement supermarkets) and 68 supermarkets were remodeled. Six supermarkets were closed during the period. The replacement supermarkets that opened during the six months ended June 29, 2024 replaced two supermarkets closed in the same period and three supermarkets closed in a previous period. Four supermarkets closed in 2024 will be replaced on site in a subsequent period. 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.
Results of Operations
Sales
Sales for the three months ended June 29, 2024 were $14.5 billion as compared with $14.1 billion for the three months ended July 1, 2023, an increase of $437 million or 3.1%. The Company estimates that its sales for the three months ended June 29, 2024 were negatively impacted by $150 million or 1.1% due to the effect of the Easter holiday being in the first quarter in 2024. In 2023, the effect of the Easter holiday was in the second quarter. The increase in sales for the three months ended June 29, 2024 as compared with the three months ended July 1, 2023 was primarily due to new supermarket sales and a 1.1% increase in comparable store sales (supermarkets open for the same weeks in both periods, including replacement supermarkets). Comparable store sales for the three months ended June 29, 2024 increased primarily due to the impact of inflation on product costs, partially offset by the effect of the early Easter holiday. Sales for supermarkets that are replaced on site are classified as new supermarket sales since the replacement period for the supermarket is generally 12 to 15 months.
Sales for the six months ended June 29, 2024 were $29.6 billion as compared with $28.4 billion for the six months ended July 1, 2023, an increase of $1.2 billion or 4.1%. The increase in sales for the six months ended June 29, 2024 as compared with the six months ended July 1, 2023 was primarily due to new supermarket sales and a 2.0% increase in comparable store sales. Comparable store sales for the six months ended June 29, 2024 increased primarily due to the impact of inflation on product costs.
Gross profit
Gross profit (sales less cost of merchandise sold) as a percentage of sales was 25.6% and 26.3% for the three months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 25.7% and 26.4% for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of sales for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 as compared with the three and six months ended July 1, 2023 was primarily due to a Medicare reimbursement process change related to pharmacy fees effective January 1, 2024. The Medicare reimbursement process change reduces both gross profit and operating and administrative expenses.
Operating and administrative expenses
Operating and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales were 19.1% and 19.4% for the three months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. Operating and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales were 18.9% and 19.1% for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. The decrease in operating and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 as compared with the three and six months ended July 1, 2023 was primarily due to a Medicare reimbursement process change related to pharmacy fees effective January 1, 2024, partially offset by the increase in payroll costs as a percentage of sales. The Medicare reimbursement process change reduces both gross profit and operating and administrative expenses.

13


Operating profit
Operating profit as a percentage of sales was 7.2% and 7.6% for the three months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. Operating profit as a percentage of sales was 7.6% and 8.0% for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. The decrease in operating profit as a percentage of sales for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 as compared with the three and six months ended July 1, 2023 was primarily due to the increase in payroll costs as a percentage of sales.
Investment income (loss)
Investment income for the three months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023 was $151 million and $299 million, respectively. Excluding the impact of net unrealized gains on equity securities in 2024 and 2023, investment income would have been $108 million and $224 million for the three months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. Excluding the impact of net unrealized gains on equity securities in 2024 and 2023, the decrease in investment income for the three months ended June 29, 2024 as compared with the three months ended July 1, 2023 was primarily due to the decrease in net realized gains on investments.
Investment income for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023 was $646 million and $627 million, respectively. Excluding the impact of net unrealized gains on equity securities in 2024 and 2023, investment income would have been $216 million and $306 million for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. Excluding the impact of net unrealized gains on equity securities in 2024 and 2023, the decrease in investment income for the six months ended June 29, 2024 as compared with the six months ended July 1, 2023 was due to the decrease in net realized gains on investments, partially offset by the increase in interest and dividend income.
Income tax expense
The effective income tax rate was 21.1% and 21.7% for the three months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. The effective income tax rate was 20.9% and 21.3% for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. The decrease in the effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 as compared with the three and six months ended July 1, 2023 was primarily due to the increased impact of permanent deductions and credits relative to earnings before income tax expense.
Net earnings
Net earnings were $972 million or $0.29 per share and $1.1 billion or $0.33 per share for the three months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. Net earnings as a percentage of sales were 6.7% and 7.8% for the three months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. Excluding the impact of net unrealized gains on equity securities in 2024 and 2023, net earnings would have been $940 million or $0.29 per share and 6.5% as a percentage of sales for the three months ended June 29, 2024 and $1.0 billion or $0.31 per share and 7.4% as a percentage of sales for the three months ended July 1, 2023. Excluding the impact of net unrealized gains on equity securities in 2024 and 2023, the decrease in net earnings as a percentage of sales for the three months ended June 29, 2024 as compared with the three months ended July 1, 2023 was primarily due to the decrease in operating profit as a percentage of sales and the decrease in net realized gains on investments.
Net earnings were $2.3 billion or $0.71 per share and $2.3 billion or $0.70 per share for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. Net earnings as a percentage of sales were 7.9% and 8.2% for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. Excluding the impact of net unrealized gains on equity securities in 2024 and 2023, net earnings would have been $2.0 billion or $0.61 per share and 6.8% as a percentage of sales for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and $2.1 billion or $0.63 per share and 7.4% as a percentage of sales for the six months ended July 1, 2023. Excluding the impact of net unrealized gains on equity securities in 2024 and 2023, the decrease in net earnings as a percentage of sales for the six months ended June 29, 2024 as compared with the six months ended July 1, 2023 was primarily due to the decrease in operating profit as a percentage of sales and the decrease in net realized gains on investments, partially offset by the increase in interest and dividend income.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to reporting financial results for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023 in accordance with GAAP, the Company presents net earnings and earnings per share excluding the impact of equity securities being measured at fair value with net unrealized gains and losses from changes in the fair value recognized in earnings (fair value adjustment). These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP. The Company excludes the impact of the fair value adjustment since it is primarily due to temporary equity market fluctuations that do not reflect the Company’s operations. The Company believes this information is useful in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of operations.
Following is a reconciliation of net earnings to net earnings excluding the impact of the fair value adjustment for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term investments totaled $15.2 billion as of June 29, 2024, as compared with $14.6 billion as of December 30, 2023 and $14.1 billion as of July 1, 2023. The increase from the second quarter of 2023 to the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to the increase in the fair value of investments.
Net cash provided by operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $2.7 billion for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023. Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 29, 2024 as compared with the six months ended July 1, 2023 remained relatively unchanged primarily due to the payment in 2023 of payroll taxes that were deferred under a coronavirus tax relief provision in 2020 and the timing of purchases of inventories, offset by the increase in income taxes paid. Income taxes paid in 2024 includes payments for 2023 that were deferred due to Hurricane Idalia. Income taxes paid in 2023 includes payments for 2022 that were deferred due to Hurricane Ian.
Net cash used in investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $1.7 billion and $1.4 billion for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. The primary use of net cash in investing activities for the six months ended June 29, 2024 was funding capital expenditures and net increases in investments. Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 29, 2024 totaled $1.2 billion. These expenditures were incurred in connection with the opening of 23 supermarkets (including five replacement supermarkets) and the remodeling of 68 supermarkets. Expenditures were also incurred for new supermarkets and remodels in progress, construction or expansion of warehouses, new or enhanced information technology hardware and software and the acquisition or development of shopping centers in which the Company operates. For the six months ended June 29, 2024, the payment for investments, net of the proceeds from the sale and maturity of investments, was $557 million.
Net cash used in financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $1.4 billion and $1.1 billion for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. The primary use of net cash in financing activities was funding net common stock repurchases and dividend payments. Net common stock repurchases totaled $670 million and $429 million for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. The Company currently repurchases common stock at the stockholders’ request in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP), Non-Employee Directors Stock Purchase Plan (Directors Plan), 401(k) Plan and ESOP. The amount of common stock offered to the Company for repurchase is not within the control of the Company, but is at the discretion of the stockholders. The Company expects to continue to repurchase its common stock, as offered by its stockholders from time to time, at its then current value. However, with the exception of certain shares distributed from the ESOP, such purchases are not required and the Company retains the right to discontinue them at any time.
Dividends
The Company paid quarterly dividends on its common stock totaling $685 million or $0.2075 per share and $633 million or $0.19 per share during the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively.
Capital expenditures projection
Capital expenditures for the remainder of 2024 are expected to be approximately $1.3 billion, primarily related to new supermarkets, remodeling existing supermarkets, construction or expansion of warehouses, new or enhanced information technology hardware and software and the acquisition or development of shopping centers in which the Company operates. The shopping center acquisitions are financed with internally generated funds and assumed debt, if prepayment penalties for the debt are determined to be significant. This capital program is subject to continuing change and review.
Cash requirements
In 2024, cash requirements for operations, capital expenditures, common stock repurchases and dividend payments are expected to be financed by internally generated funds or liquid assets. Based on the Company’s financial position, it is expected that short-term and long-term borrowings would be available to support the Company’s liquidity requirements, if needed.

The Company does not utilize financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes, nor does it utilize leveraged financial instruments. There have been no material changes in the market risk factors from those disclosed in the Annual Report.
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 principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer each concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information has been accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, in a manner that allows timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation that occurred during the quarter ended June 29, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
As reported in the Annual Report, the Company is subject from time to time to various lawsuits, claims and charges arising in the normal course of business. The Company believes its recorded reserves are adequate in light of the probable and estimable liabilities. The estimated amount of reasonably possible losses for lawsuits, claims and charges, individually and in the aggregate, is considered to be immaterial. In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of these legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes in the risk factors from those disclosed in the Annual Report.

(1)Common stock is made available for sale by the Company only to its current employees and members of its Board of Directors through the ESPP and Directors Plan and to participants of the 401(k) Plan. In addition, common stock is provided to employees through the ESOP. The Company currently repurchases common stock subject to certain terms and conditions. The ESPP, Directors Plan, 401(k) Plan and ESOP each contain provisions prohibiting any transfer for value without the owner first offering the common stock to the Company.
The Company’s common stock is not traded on an established securities market. The amount of common stock offered to the Company for repurchase is not within the control of the Company, but is at the discretion of the stockholders. The Company does not believe that these repurchases of its common stock are within the scope of a publicly announced plan or program (although the terms of the plans discussed above have been communicated to the participants). Thus, the Company does not believe that it has made any repurchases during the three months ended June 29, 2024 required to be disclosed in the last two columns of the table.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Publix Super Markets, Inc. and subsidiaries (Company) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, the accompanying statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments that are of a normal and recurring nature necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position and results of operations. Due to the seasonal nature of the Company’s business, the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 may not necessarily be indicative of the results for the entire 2024 fiscal year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2023 (Annual Report).
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments [Text Block] Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and accounts payable, approximates their respective carrying amounts due to their short-term maturity.
The fair value of investments is based on market prices using the following measurement categories:
Level 1 – Fair value is determined by using quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. Investments included in this category are equity securities (primarily exchange traded funds).
Level 2 – Fair value is determined by using other than quoted prices. By using observable inputs (for example, benchmark yields, interest rates, reported trades and broker dealer quotes), the fair value is determined through processes such as benchmark curves, benchmarking of similar securities and matrix pricing of corporate and government-sponsored agency bonds by using pricing of similar bonds based on coupons, ratings and maturities. Investments included in this category are debt securities (primarily taxable bonds), including restricted investments in taxable bonds held as collateral.
Level 3 – Fair value is determined by using other than observable inputs. Fair value is determined by using the best information available in the circumstances and requires significant management judgment or estimation. No investments are currently included in this category.
Following is a summary of fair value measurements for investments as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023:

There were 525 debt securities contributing to the total unrealized losses of $564 million as of June 29, 2024. Unrealized losses related to debt securities are primarily due to increases in interest rates that occurred since the debt securities were purchased. The Company continues to receive scheduled principal and interest payments on these debt securities.
(b)Equity Securities
Equity securities are measured at fair value with net unrealized gains and losses from changes in the fair value recognized in earnings (fair value adjustment). The fair value of equity securities was $3.1 billion and $2.7 billion as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively.
(c)Investment Income (Loss)
Net realized gain or loss on investments represents the difference between the cost and the proceeds from the sale of debt and equity securities. The net realized gain or loss on investments excludes the net gain or loss on the sale of equity securities previously recognized through the fair value adjustment, which is presented separately in the following table.

Retirement Benefits [Abstract]  
Retirement Plan [Text Block] Retirement PlanThe Company has a trusteed, noncontributory Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) for the benefit of eligible employees. Since the Company’s common stock is not traded on an established securities market, the ESOP includes a put option for shares of the Company’s common stock distributed from the ESOP. Shares are distributed from the ESOP primarily to separated vested participants and certain eligible participants who elect to diversify their account balances. Under the Company’s administration of the ESOP’s put option, if the owners of distributed shares desire to sell their shares, the Company is required to purchase the shares at fair value for a specified time period after distribution of the shares from the ESOP. The fair value of distributed shares subject to the put option totaled $669 million and $604 million as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively. The cost of the shares held by the ESOP totaled $3.9 billion and $3.6 billion as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively. Due to the Company’s obligation under the put option, the distributed shares subject to the put option and the shares held by the ESOP are classified as temporary equity in the mezzanine section of the condensed consolidated balance sheets and totaled $4.6 billion and $4.2 billion as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively. The fair value of the shares held by the ESOP totaled $11.9 billion and $11.2 billion as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively.
