5. | LEASES AND LEASE-FINANCED TRANSACTIONS
​ On May 17, 2018, the Company entered into a Partnership Framework Agreement with Ocado International Holdings Limited and Ocado Group plc (“Ocado”), which has since been amended. Under this agreement, Ocado will partner exclusively with the Company in the U.S., enhancing the Company’s digital and robotics capabilities in its distribution networks. In the first two quarters of 2023, the Company opened one additional Kroger Delivery customer fulfillment center in Frederick, Maryland. The Company determined the arrangement with Ocado contains a lease of the robotic equipment used to fulfill customer orders. As a result, the Company establishes a finance lease when each facility begins fulfilling orders to customers. The base term of each lease is 10 years with options to renew at the Company’s sole discretion. The Company elected to combine the lease and non-lease elements in the contract. As a result, the Company will account for all payments to Ocado as lease payments. During the first two quarters of 2023, the Company recorded finance lease assets of $139 and finance lease liabilities of $129 related to the Company’s agreement with Ocado. As of August 12, 2023 and January 28, 2023, the Company had $983 and $928, respectively, of net finance lease assets included within “Property, plant and equipment, net” in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets related to the Company's agreement with Ocado. As of August 12, 2023 and January 28, 2023, the Company had $97 and $88, respectively, of current finance lease liabilities recorded within “Current portion of long-term debt including obligations under finance leases" and $834 and $785, respectively, of non-current finance lease liabilities recorded within “Long-term debt including obligations under finance leases.” ​
