| Metric | Latest | YoYYoY means Year-over-Year. It compares the latest annual value with the previous annual value to show long-term trend strength. | QoQQoQ means Quarter-over-Quarter. It compares the latest quarter with the immediately previous quarter to show short-term momentum changes. |
|---|---|---|---|
| RevenueThe total money that came through the front door from selling things, before paying a single bill. Think of it as the grand total of every credit card swipe from customers. (YoY compares this year to last year's performance, while QoQ compares the current three months to the previous three). | $83.2B | +3.5% | +23.2% |
| Net IncomeThe absolute bottom line. If the company paid every single supplier, employee, banker, and tax collector, this is the actual money left in their pocket at the end of the day. | $217.4M | -77.3% | +117.6% |
| Gross MarginThe basic markup. If they sell a $100 pair of sneakers, this percentage tells you how much of that price tag is profit right after paying for the rubber and shoelaces, but before paying for things like store rent or TV commercials. | +25.1% | -9.2% | +6.0% |
| Operating MarginThe 'day job' efficiency score. Out of every dollar a customer spends, this shows how many cents the company keeps after making the product AND paying for all the everyday corporate overhead (like salaries, marketing, and keeping the lights on). | +0.9% | -55.3% | +143.7% |
| Net MarginThe final take-home percentage. When you strip away every conceivable cost, tax, and interest payment, this is the exact number of cents the company truly gets to keep from every dollar in sales. | +0.3% | -78.1% | +114.3% |
| Free Cash FlowThe holy grail of corporate cash. It's the spendable, physical money left over after the business pays for its daily operations AND buys the big, expensive upgrades (like new factories or servers) it needs to survive. This is the 'free' money they can use to pay dividends or buy back stock. | $527.3M | -29.6% | +18.5% |
| FCF MarginThe ultimate cash conversion rate. It shows how good the company is at turning regular sales directly into cold, hard, spendable cash. A high percentage means the business is an absolute cash-printing machine. | +0.6% | -32.0% | -3.8% |
| Debt / EquityThe financial risk gauge. It compares how much of the company's empire was built using borrowed money (loans) versus the owners' own money (shareholders). A high number means they are heavily leveraged and playing a riskier game; a low number means they are playing it safe. | 833.1% | +98.9% | +16.9% |
| Current RatioThe 12-month survival check. It simply compares the cash they have right now (plus things they can quickly turn into cash) against the immediate bills they absolutely must pay this year. A score above 1 means they have enough in the wallet to cover the upcoming bills without panicking. | 0.86x | -5.1% | -1.9% |
| Total AssetsThe absolute size of the company's empire. It bundles together absolutely everything of value they own—from the cash in the register and the inventory in the warehouse, to the software patents in the vault and the factories on the ground. | $26.8B | -8.7% | +0.6% |
| Metric | Annual (A vs E) | Annual Surprise | Quarter (A vs E) | Quarter Surprise |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EPS Surprise | 0.40 vs 2.13 | -81.3% | 0.17 vs 0.46 | -63.2% |

Operator : Welcome to Albertsons Company's First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Earnings Conference Call. [Operator Instructions] This call is being recorded. I would like to hand the call over to Cody Perdue, Senior Vice President, Treasury, Investor Relations and Risk Management. Please go ahead. Cody Perdue : Good morning, and thank you for joining us. With me today are Susan Morris, our CEO; and Sharon McCollam, our President and CFO. Today, Susan will provide an overview of our first quarter results and perspective on the current operating environment, including the actions we are taking to improve execution, strengthen our customer value proposition and position the business for stronger long-term performance. Sharon will then cover our financial results and updated outlook before we open the call for Q&A. I would like to remind you that management may make forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations and projections. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the factors identified in our filings with the SEC. Any forward-looking statements we make today are only as of today's date, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any such statements. Additionally, we will be discussing certain non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures can be found in this morning's earnings release. And with that, I will turn the call over to Susan. Susan Morris : Good morning, everyone, and thank you for joining us. Let me begin by discussing this morning's announcement on Sharon's retirement. Of course, I first want to thank Sharon for the lasting impact she's had on Albertsons and her exceptional partnership. Since joining the company in 2021, she played a critical role in shaping our financial, operational and strategic priorities, bringing a unique combination of financial discipline, operational expertise and transformation leadership. Most importantly, Sharon has helped position Albertsons for its next chapter of growth, leaving the company with a strong foundation, a clear strategic direction and the capabilities needed to drive long-term value creation. We are conducting a comprehensive search process, evaluating both internal and external candidates to identify a transformational leader who combines exceptional financial acumen with a strategic vision to drive sustainable growth and long-term value. I'll turn now to our results for the quarter. Identical sales declined 0.8%. Adjusted EBITDA was $1.013 billion, and adjusted earnings per share was $0.42 per share. While pharmacy and digital delivered strong growth, their performance was not enough to offset broader pressures in our core business. These results were below our expectations, and we're taking decisive action to improve future performance. Our …
