Disclaimer Certain information in this presentation and discussed on the conference call which this presentation accompanies constitutes forward-looking information within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements regarding the Company’s business that are not historical facts are “forward looking statements” that involve risk and uncertainties and are based on current expectations and management estimates; actual results may differ materially. The risks and uncertainties which could impact these statements are described in filings that United Natural Foods, Inc. (the “Company”) has made under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended October 27, 2018 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on December 6, 2018 and other filings the Company makes with the SEC, and include, but are not limited to the Company’s dependence on principal customers; the Company's sensitivity to general economic conditions, including changes in disposable income levels and consumer spending trends; the Company’s ability to realize anticipated benefits of its acquisitions and dispositions, in particular, its acquisition of SUPERVALU; the possibility that restructuring and other charges and costs we may incur in connection with the sale or closure of SUPERVALU's retail operations will exceed current estimates; the potential for additional goodwill impairment charges as a result of purchase accounting adjustments or otherwise; the Company's reliance on the continued growth in sales of higher margin natural and organic foods and non-food products in comparison to lower margin conventional products; increased competition in the Company's industry as a result of increased distribution of natural, organic and specialty products by conventional grocery distributors and direct distribution of those products by large retailers and online distributors; increased competition as a result of continuing consolidation of retailers in the natural product industry and the growth of supernatural chains; the Company's ability to timely and successfully deploy its warehouse management system throughout its distribution centers and its transportation management system across the Company and to achieve efficiencies and cost savings from these efforts; the addition or loss of significant customers or material changes to the Company’s relationships with these customers; volatility in fuel costs; volatility in foreign exchange rates; the Company's sensitivity to inflationary and deflationary pressures; the relatively low margins and economic sensitivity of the Company's business; the potential for disruptions in the Company's supply chain by circumstances beyond its control; the risk of interruption of supplies due to lack of long-term contracts, severe weather, work stoppages or otherwise; moderated supplier promotional activity, including decreased forward buying opportunities; union -organizing activities that could cause labor relations difficulties and increased costs; and the ability to identify and successfully complete acquisitions of other natural, organic and specialty food and non-food products distributors. Any forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and, as such, speak only as of the date made. The Company is not undertaking to update any information in the foregoing reports until the effective date of its future reports required by applicable laws. Any estimates of future results of operations are based on a number of assumptions, many of which are outside the Company's control and should not be construed in any manner as a guarantee that such results will in fact occur. These estimates are subject to change and could differ materially from final reported results. The Company may from time to time update these publicly announced estimates, but it is not obligated to do so. This presentation also contains the non-GAAP financial measures estimated adjusted diluted earnings per common share, adjusted EBITDA, estimated adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted interest expense. The reconciliations of certain of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the appendix to this presentation. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that presenting these non-GAAP financial measures aids in making period-to-period comparisons and is a meaningful indication of its estimated operating performance. The Company's management utilizes and plans to utilize this non-GAAP financial information to compare the Company's operating performance during certain fiscal periods to the comparable periods in the other fiscal years and, in certain cases, to internally prepared projections. 2 Better Food.

338(g) Election For SUPERVALU Acquisition Election generates meaningful tax savings over time • As a result of the acquisition of SUPERVALU, UNFI is expecting to utilize a significant portion of the $2.9B capital loss carryforward generated from the SUPERVALU divestiture of Albertson’s in March 2013 by making a 338(g) election. • Under a 338(g) election, UNFI treats the purchase of SUPERVALU as an asset purchase for tax purposes, allowing UNFI to step up the basis of the acquired assets to fair market value. • This provides UNFI with higher future depreciation and amortization deductions which lowers future tax obligations. • UNFI made a $59 million payment in February 2019 related to the anticipated 338(g) election. • The 338(g) election is expected to generate cash tax benefits of approximately $300 million over 15 years. 9 Better Food.
