Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
BUSINESS SEGMENTS | NOTE 16—BUSINESS SEGMENTS The Company regularly monitors for events or circumstances that would indicate a change in reportable segments. Effective for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company restructured its internal financial reporting and management processes to align with its new product-centered divisional structure, which required the Company to reevaluate its operating segments. Based on the changes to the commercial wholesale organizational structure and how the Company’s CODM assesses performance and makes decisions about the allocation of resources to each operating segment, operations previously reported in Wholesale are now included in the Natural and Conventional segments, and certain operations previously reported in Other are now included in the Natural segment. The Company now has three reportable segments: Natural, Conventional and Retail. Prior periods have been recast to conform to the Company’s new reportable operating segments. Reportable segments are reviewed on an annual basis, or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate a change in reportable segments has occurred. The Natural reportable segment is engaged in the wholesale distribution of natural, organic and specialty grocery and non-food products and services and includes the Company’s portfolio of natural owned brands and natural and organic snack food manufacturing business. The Conventional reportable segment is engaged in the wholesale distribution of conventional grocery and non-food products and services and includes the Company’s portfolio of conventional owned brands. The Retail reportable segment derives revenues from the sale of groceries and other products at the Company’s grocery and liquor stores operating under the Cub® Foods and Shoppers® banners. Intersegment sales represent sales between the segments, which are eliminated in consolidation. Intersegment transactions are generally recorded at amounts that approximate market value. The Company’s CODM is the Chief Executive Officer. The Company’s CODM uses segment Adjusted EBITDA as the measure of segment profitability to assess the performance and core business trends of each segment through regular review of financial information, and when making decisions about the allocation of resources to each segment. The Company’s CODM uses segment Adjusted EBITDA primarily as a part of the annual budget and forecasting process. Segment Adjusted EBITDA includes revenues and costs attributable to each of the respective business segments and certain allocated corporate expenses, based on the segment’s estimated consumption of corporately managed resources. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025, the Company updated allocation methodologies for its measure of segment Adjusted EBITDA to exclude a portion of centrally-managed corporate functions, which include, but are not limited to, corporate legal operations, investor relations, treasury, certain enterprise-wide information technology and other corporate operating expenses that are not integral to segment performance and are included in Corporate and Other. The prior period segment financial results have been recast to conform to the current allocation methodology. This change did not impact the Company’s previously reported consolidated results. Corporate and Other excludes items such as restructuring, acquisition and integration related expenses and share-based compensation. These items are excluded from the definition of Adjusted EBITDA and are added back to reconcile segment Adjusted EBITDA to (Loss) income before income taxes. The Company does not report total assets by segment for internal or external reporting purposes as the Company’s CODM does not assess performance or allocate resources based on segment assets. Additionally, the Company does not record its revenues within its Natural nor Conventional reportable segments for financial reporting purposes by product group, and it is therefore impracticable for it to report them accordingly. The following tables provide financial information for each reportable segment and Corporate and Other, along with a reconciliation to (Loss) income before income taxes:
