During this time, the Company has increased revenue and adjusted EBITDA, effectively allocated capital to the business and to shareholders, and significantly de-levered its balance sheet. </p>

Under his leadership, seven experienced and highly capable executives joined the senior management team and they, in turn, are continuing this refreshment process at all levels throughout the Company. Importantly, the team is focused on executing the transformation strategy that has already enabled the Company to meet its financial guidance targets throughout 2021 and is expected to continue delivering growth in 2022. </p>

This enabled SpartanNash to reduce its net long-term debt by $269 million over the last two fiscal years, finishing fiscal year 2021 with a net-long-term debt-to-adjusted-EBITDA leverage ratio of 1.8x, a significant improvement from its ratio of 3.7x at the end of 2019. These results are enabling the Company to continue to invest in transforming operations and returning capital to shareholders through dividends and buybacks during 2022. </p>

Despite the Board and management team already having strong grocery retail and distribution experience, the Company offered to interview two of Macellum&#8217;s candidates who have grocery retailing backgrounds for purposes of appointing one mutually agreeable candidate with this expertise. Macellum expressed strong dissatisfaction with this proposal &#8211; even refusing to allow the Company to interview its candidates &#8211; and did not offer an alternative suggestion or request. </font></p></td></tr></table></div>

These are non-GAAP financial measures, as defined below, and are used by management to allocate resources, assess performance against its peers and evaluate overall performance. The Company believes these measures provide useful information for both management and its investors. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors because they provide additional understanding of the trends and special circumstances that affect its business. These measures provide useful supplemental information that helps investors to establish a basis for expected performance and the ability to evaluate actual results against that expectation. The measures, when considered in connection with GAAP results, can be used to assess the overall performance of the Company as well as assess the Company&#8217;s performance against its peers. These measures are also used as a basis for certain compensation programs sponsored by the Company. In addition, securities analysts, fund managers and other shareholders and stakeholders that communicate with the Company request its financial results in these adjusted formats.</p>

Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal year 2019 excludes, among other items, &#8220;Fresh Kitchen operating losses&#8221; subsequent to the decision to exit these operations at the beginning of the third quarter, costs associated with organizational realignment, which include significant changes to the Company's management team, and fees paid to a third-party advisory firm associated with Project One Team, the Company's initiative to drive growth while increasing efficiency and reducing costs.&nbsp;&nbsp;Each of these items are considered &#8220;non-operational&#8221; or &#8220;non-core&#8221; in nature.
