QUARTERLY REPORT ON FORM 10-Q
FOR THE QUARTERLY PERIOD ENDED APRIL 4, 2021
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. The statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (referred to as the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (referred to as the “Exchange Act”), including, but not limited to, statements regarding our expectations, beliefs, intentions, strategies, future operations, future financial position, future revenue, projected expenses, and plans and objectives of management. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “project,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “can,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” “objective,” or the negative of these terms, and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements. However, not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These forward-looking statements reflect our current views about future events and involve known risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance, or achievement to be materially different from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2021, and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Furthermore, such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements.
As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context otherwise requires, references to the “Company,” “Sprouts,” “Sprouts Farmers Market,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Sprouts Farmers Market, Inc. and, where appropriate, its subsidiaries.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
iRevenue Recognition
The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied upon the transfer of goods to the customer, which occurs at the point of sale, and payment from customers is also due at the time of sale. Proceeds from the sale of gift cards are recorded as a liability at the time of sale and recognized as sales when they are redeemed by the customer and the performance obligation is satisfied by the Company. The Company’s gift cards do not expire. Based on historical redemption rates, a small and relatively stable percentage of gift cards will never be redeemed, referred to as "breakage." i Estimated breakage revenue is recognized over time in proportion to actual gift card redemptions and was not material in any period presented.

The Company does not have any material contract assets or receivables from contracts with customers, any revenue recognized in the current period from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods, or any remaining performance obligations as of April 4, 2021.
/ iRestricted Cash
Restricted cash relates to defined benefit plan forfeitures as well as healthcare, general liability and workers’ compensation restricted funds of approximately $ i 1.8 million and $ i 1.7 million as of April 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021, respectively. These balances are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets.
/ iRecently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Income Taxes – Accounting for Income Taxes
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU no. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” Among other things, the amendment removes certain exceptions for periods with operating losses, and reduces the complexity surrounding hybrid tax regimes, step up in tax basis of goodwill in conjunction with a business combination, and timing of enacting changes in tax laws during interim periods. The Company adopted this standard effective i January 4, 2021 on a prospective basis. There was no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
/i
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
Reference Rate Reform
In March 2020 and January 2021, the FASB issued ASU no. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” and ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope,” respectively. The amendments in these updates provide optional expedients and exceptions for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform. Generally, the guidance allows contract modifications related to reference rate reform to be considered events that do not require remeasurements or reassessments of previous accounting determinations at the modification date. These updates only apply to modifications made prior to December 31, 2022. No such modifications occurred in the period ending April 4, 2021. The Company expects to utilize this optional guidance but does not expect it to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

3. Fair Value Measurements
The Company records its financial assets and liabilities in accordance with the framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP. This framework establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value:
Level 1: Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.
Level 3: Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
Fair value measurements of nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities are primarily used in the valuation of derivative instruments, impairment analysis of goodwill, intangible assets and long-lived assets.
iThe following tables present the fair value hierarchy for the Company’s financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of April 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021:

The Company’s interest rate swaps are considered Level 2 in the hierarchy and are valued using an income approach. Expected future cash flows are converted to a present value amount based on market expectations of the yield curve on floating interest rates, which is readily available on public markets.
The determination of fair values of certain tangible and intangible assets for purposes of the Company’s goodwill impairment evaluation as described above is based upon Level 3 inputs. The weighted average cost of capital is estimated using information from comparable companies and management’s judgment related to the risk associated with the operations of the stores.
Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and accrued salaries and benefits approximate fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. Based on comparable open market transactions, the fair value of the long-term debt approximated carrying value as of April 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021.

Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility
The Company’s subsidiary, Sprouts Farmers Markets Holdings, LLC (“Intermediate Holdings”), is the borrower under an amended and restated credit agreement entered into on March 27, 2018 (the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) to amend and restate the Company’s former’s senior secured credit facility, dated April 17, 2015 (the “Former Credit Facility”). The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility with an initial aggregate commitment of $ i 700.0 million, an increase from $ i 450.0 million from the Former Credit Facility, which may be increased from time to time pursuant to an expansion feature set forth in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.
The Company capitalized debt issuance costs of $ i 2.1 million related to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement which combined with the remaining $ i 0.7 million debt issuance costs for the Former Credit Facility, are being amortized on a straight-line basis to interest expense over the five-year term of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.
The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement also provides for a letter of credit sub-facility and a $ i 15.0 million swingline facility. Letters of credit issued under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement reduce its borrowing capacity. Letters of credit totaling $ i 38.8 million have been issued as of April 4, 2021, primarily to support the Company’s insurance programs.
On March 6, 2019, Intermediate Holdings entered into an amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement intended to align the treatment of certain lease accounting terms with the Company’s adoption of ASC 842. This amendment had no impact on borrowing capacity, interest rate, or maturity.
Guarantees
Obligations under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Company and all of its current and future wholly-owned material domestic subsidiaries (other than the borrower), and are secured by first-priority security interests in substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiary guarantors, including, without limitation, a pledge by the Company of its equity interest in Intermediate Holdings.

(UNAUDITED)
Interest and Fees
Loans under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement initially bore interest at i LIBOR plus i 1.50% per annum or prime plus i 0.50%. The interest rate margins are subject to adjustment pursuant to a pricing grid based on the Company’s total net leverage ratio, as set forth in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. / Under the terms of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the Company is obligated to pay a commitment fee on the available unused amount of the commitments between i 0.15% to i 0.30% per annum, also pursuant to a pricing grid based on the Company’s total net leverage ratio. As of April 4, 2021, loans under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement bore interest at LIBOR plus i 1.25% per annum or prime plus i 0.25%.
The interest rate on i 100% of outstanding debt under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement is fixed, reflecting the effects of floating to fixed interest rate swaps (see Note 9, “Derivative Financial Instruments”).
As of April 4, 2021, outstanding letters of credit under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement were subject to a participation fee of i 1.25% per annum and an issuance fee of i 0.125% per annum.
Payments and Borrowings
The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement is scheduled to mature, and the commitments thereunder will terminate on i March 27, 2023, subject to extensions as set forth therein.
The Company may prepay loans and permanently reduce commitments under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement at any time in agreed-upon minimum principal amounts, without premium or penalty (except LIBOR breakage costs, if applicable).
During the thirteen weeks ended April 4, 2021, the Company made i i i no / / additional borrowings or principal payments, resulting in total outstanding debt under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement of $ i 250.0 million as of April 4, 2021. During fiscal year 2020, the Company made no additional borrowings and made a total of $ i 288.0 million of principal payments, resulting in total outstanding debt under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement of $ i 250.0 million at January 3, 2021.
Covenants
The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains financial, affirmative and negative covenants. The negative covenants include, among other things, limitations on the Company’s ability to:

grant additional liens; |
|
|
• |

SPROUTS FARMERS MARKET, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
In addition, the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement requires that the Company and its subsidiaries maintain a maximum total net leverage ratio not to exceed i 3.25 to 1.00 and minimum interest coverage ratio not to be less than i 1.75 to 1.00. Each of these covenants is tested on the last day of each fiscal quarter.
The Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement as of April 4, 2021.

5. Income Taxes
The Company’s effective tax rate decreased to i 24.7% for the thirteen weeks ended April 4, 2021, compared to i 25.2% for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2020. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to an increase in enhanced charitable contributions and a benefit for share-based payment awards in the current year period, partially offset by a decrease in federal tax credits. The income tax effect resulting from excess tax detriments/(benefits) of equity-based compensation were ($ i 0.1) million and $ i 0.5 million for the thirteen weeks ended April 4, 2021 and March 29, 2020, respectively.
The Company files income tax returns for federal purposes and in many states. The Company’s tax filings remain subject to examination by applicable tax authorities for a certain length of time, generally three years, following the tax year to which those filings relate. The Company’s U.S. federal income tax return for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 is currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
/ i
6. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is exposed to claims and litigation matters arising in the ordinary course of business and uses various methods to resolve these matters that are believed to best serve the interests of the Company’s stakeholders. The Company’s primary contingencies are associated with self-insurance obligations and litigation matters. Self-insurance liabilities require significant judgment and actual claim settlements and associated expenses may differ from the Company’s current provisions for loss.
“Phishing” Scam Actions
In April 2016, i four complaints were filed, i two in the federal courts of California, i one in the Superior Court of California and i one in the federal court in the District of Colorado, each on behalf of a purported class of the Company’s current and former team members whose personally identifiable information (“PII”) was inadvertently disclosed to an unauthorized third party that perpetrated an email “phishing” scam against one of the Company’s team members. The complaints alleged the Company failed to properly safeguard the PII in accordance with applicable law. The complaints sought damages on behalf of the purported class in unspecified amounts, attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. On March 1, 2019, a number of individual plaintiffs filed arbitration demands. On May 15, 2019, certain other plaintiffs filed a second amended class action complaint in the District of Arizona, alleging that certain subclasses of team members are not subject to the Company’s arbitration agreement and attempted to pursue those team members’ claims in federal court. In late August 2019, the Company reached an agreement in principle to settle the majority of these claims, which were funded in the fourth quarter of 2019. Primary funding for the settlement came from the Company’s cyber insurance policy, and the settlement did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. Following the group settlement, three ( i 3) individual claimants planned to proceed with arbitration of their claims. The i three individual arbitrations were settled in late June and early July 2020, with immaterial settlement amounts fully funded by the Company’s cyber insurance policy.
Proposition 65 Coffee Action
On April 13, 2010, an organization named Council for Education and Research on Toxics (“CERT”) filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles, against nearly i 80 defendants who manufacture, package, distribute or sell brewed coffee, including the Company. CERT
/14
SPROUTS FARMERS MARKET, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
alleged that the defendants failed to provide warnings for their coffee products of exposure to the chemical acrylamide as required under California Health and Safety Code section 25249.5, the California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, better known as Proposition 65. CERT seeks equitable relief, including providing warnings to consumers of coffee products, as well as civil penalties.
The Company, as part of a joint defense group, asserted multiple defenses against the lawsuit. On May 7, 2018, the trial court issued a ruling adverse to defendants on these defenses to liability. On October 1, 2019, before the court tried damages, remedies and attorneys' fees, California’s Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment adopted a regulation that exempted “Exposures to listed chemicals in coffee created by and inherent in the processes of roasting coffee beans or brewing coffee” from Proposition 65’s warning requirement. On August 25, 2020, the court granted the defense motion for summary judgment based on the regulation, and the case was dismissed.
On November 20, 2020, CERT filed a notice of appeal to appeal the ruling on the defense motion for summary judgment. The case is currently being briefed, with a decision expected in 2022. At this stage of the proceedings, the Company is unable to predict or reasonably estimate any potential loss or effect on the Company or its operations. Accordingly, no loss contingency was recorded for this matter.

9. Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement in December 2017 to manage its cash flow associated with variable interest rates. This forward contract has been designated and qualifies as a cash flow hedge, and its change in fair value is recorded as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods in which the forecasted transaction occurs. The forward contract initially consisted of i five cash flow hedges, of which i two were outstanding at April 4, 2021. To qualify as a hedge, the Company needs to formally document, designate and assess the effectiveness of the transactions that receive hedge accounting.
The notional dollar amount of the i i two / outstanding swaps was $ i i 250.0 / million at April 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021, under which the Company pays a fixed rate and receives a variable rate of interest (cash flow swap). The cash flow swaps hedge the change in interest rates on debt related to fluctuations in interest rates and each have a length of i one year and mature annually from i 2021 to i 2022. These interest rate swaps have been designated and qualify as cash flow hedges and have met the requirements to assume i zero ineffectiveness. The Company reviews the effectiveness of its hedging instruments on a quarterly basis.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations together with the consolidated financial statements and related notes that are included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 2020 fiscal year, filed on February 25, 2021 (“Form 10-K”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission. All dollar amounts included below are in thousands, unless otherwise noted.
Business Overview
Sprouts Farmers Market offers a unique grocery experience featuring an open layout with fresh produce at the heart of the store. Sprouts inspires wellness naturally with a carefully curated assortment of better-for-you products paired with purpose-driven people. We continue to bring the latest in wholesome, innovative products made with lifestyle-friendly ingredients such as organic, plant-based and gluten-free. Since our founding in 2002, we have grown rapidly, significantly increasing our sales, store count and profitability. Headquartered in Phoenix with 362 stores in 23 states as of April 4, 2021, we are one of the largest specialty retailers of fresh, natural and organic food, and fastest growing retailers in the United States.
Our Heritage
In 2002, we opened the first Sprouts Farmers Market store in Chandler, Arizona. From our founding in 2002, we have grown rapidly, significantly increasing our sales, store count and profitability, including successfully rebranding 43 Henry’s Farmers Market and 39 Sunflower Farmers Market stores added in 2011 and 2012, respectively, through acquisitions to the Sprouts banner. These three businesses all trace their lineage back to Henry’s Farmers Market and were built with similar store formats and operations including a strong emphasis on value, produce and service in smaller, convenient locations. The consistency of these formats and operations was an important factor that allowed us to rapidly and successfully rebrand and integrate each of these businesses under the Sprouts banner and on a common platform.
Outlook
In 2020, we announced the initial steps of our new long-term growth strategy that we believe will transform our company and drive profitable growth. This strategy focuses on the following areas:
|
|
• |
Win with Target Customers. We plan to refocus attention on our target customers, where there is ample opportunity to gain share within these customer segments. Our business can grow by leveraging existing strengths in a unique assortment of better-for-you, quality products and by expanding ecommerce capabilities to allow customers easy access to differentiated products through delivery or pickup. |
|
|
• |
Update Format and Expand in Select Markets. We plan to deliver unique smaller stores with expectations of stronger returns, while maintaining the approachable, fresh-focused farmer’s market heritage Sprouts is known for. Our geographic store expansion and new store placement will intersect where our target customers live, in markets with growth potential and supply chain support, providing a long runway of at least 10% annual unit growth beginning in 2022. |
|
|
• |
Create an Advantaged Fresh Supply Chain. We believe our network of fresh distribution centers can drive efficiencies across the chain and support growth plans. To further deliver on our fresh commitment and reputation, as well as to improve financial results, we will aspire to ultimately position fresh distribution centers within a 250-mile radius of stores. |
21
|
|
• |
Refine Brand and Marketing Approach. We believe we can elevate our national brand recognition and positioning by telling our unique product innovation and differentiation story. Increased customer engagement through digital and social connections will drive additional sales growth and loyalty. |
|
|
• |
Deliver on Financial Targets and Box Economics. We will measure and report on the success of this strategy against a number of long-term financial and operational targets. |
Recent Developments – COVID-19
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic, and on March 13, 2020, the United States declared the pandemic to be a national emergency. As COVID-19 spread throughout the country, the situation has continued to evolve, including, more recently, the increasing adoption of the COVID-19 vaccine and the accelerating reopening of state economies to approach pre-pandemic levels. We continue to make significant investments in compensation, benefits and personal protective equipment for our front-line store team members and incur elevated ecommerce fees as consumers have increasingly used online shopping alternatives to purchase our products during the pandemic. As we begin to cycle periods of 2020 where our results benefited from the initial onset of the pandemic, we are reporting declines in year over year net sales and comparable store sales growth. The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our results of operations for future periods will depend on the length and severity of the pandemic and governmental and consumer actions taken in response, which we cannot predict. These uncertainties make it challenging for our management to estimate our future business performance. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors— The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has disrupted our business and could negatively impact our financial condition.” in our Form 10-K for additional information.

Net sales during the thirteen weeks ended April 4, 2021 totaled $1.6 billion, a decrease of $71.1 million, or 4%, compared to the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2020. The sales decrease was primarily due to a 9.4% decrease in comparable store sales as a result of cycling the initial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Comparable stores contributed approximately 96% of total sales for the thirteen weeks ended April 4, 2021 and approximately 94% for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2020.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $3.4 million, or 1%, compared to the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2020. The increase was primarily driven by higher ecommerce fees as more customers have continued to rely on home delivery and curbside pickup during the pandemic and new stores that have opened since the comparable period last year, partially offset by lower bonus expense due to COVID incentives in the prior year. As a result of this increase and sales deleverage, selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 27.9% from 26.5%.

Store closure and other costs, net increased $3.1 million to $2.0 million, compared to a credit of $1.1 million for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2020. The increase was driven by inventory loss and additional expenses related to the impact of winter storms at several of our stores and a fire at one of our stores during the thirteen weeks ended April 4, 2021. Store closure and other costs, net during the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2020 primarily represented a recognized gain on the assignment of the lease for one of our closed locations.

The decrease in interest expense, net was primarily due to the decrease in the average balance outstanding under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. This was partially offset by the interest expense paid as a result of an unfavorable interest rate swap.
Income tax provision
Income tax provision differed from the amounts computed by applying the U.S. federal income tax rate to pretax income as a result of the following:

Return on Invested Capital
In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, we provide information regarding Return on Invested Capital (referred to as “ROIC”) as additional information about our operating results. ROIC is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be reviewed in isolation or considered as a substitute for our financial results as reported in accordance with GAAP. ROIC is an important measure used by management to evaluate our investment returns on capital and provides a meaningful measure of the effectiveness of our capital allocation over time.
We define ROIC as net operating profit after tax (referred to as “NOPAT”), including the effect of capitalized operating leases, divided by average invested capital. Operating lease interest represents the add-back to operating income driven by the hypothetical interest expense we would incur if the property under our operating leases were owned or accounted for as a finance lease (capital lease prior to adoption of ASC 842). The assumed ownership and associated interest expense are calculated using the discount rate for each lease as recorded as a component of rent expense within selling, general and administrative expenses. Invested capital reflects a trailing twelve-month average.
As numerous methods exist for calculating ROIC, our method may differ from methods used by other companies to calculate their ROIC. It is important to understand the methods and the differences in those methods used by other companies to calculate their ROIC before comparing our ROIC to that of other companies.
Our calculation of ROIC for the fiscal periods indicated was as follows:

We have generally financed our operations principally through cash generated from operations and borrowings under our credit facilities. Our primary uses of cash are for purchases of inventory, operating expenses, capital expenditures primarily for opening new stores, remodels and maintenance, repurchases of our common stock and debt service. We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, and cash anticipated to be generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for at least the next 12 months. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations, new store openings, remodel and maintenance capital expenditures at existing stores, store initiatives and other corporate capital expenditures and activities. Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash position benefits from the fact that we generally collect cash from sales to customers the same day or, in the case of credit or debit card transactions, within days from the related sale.
Operating Activities
Cash flows from operating activities decreased $171.6 million to $105.4 million for the thirteen weeks ended April 4, 2021 compared to $277.1 million for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2020. The decrease in cash flows from operating activities was primarily a result of changes in working capital.
Cash flows provided by/(used in) operating activities from changes in working capital were ($16.0) million in the thirteen weeks ended April 4, 2021 compared to $155.8 million in the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2020. The decrease was primarily driven by elevated accounts payable and accrual balances in the prior year period.
Investing Activities
Cash flows used in investing activities consist primarily of capital expenditures in new stores, including leasehold improvements and store equipment, capital expenditures to maintain the appearance of our stores, sales enhancing initiatives and other corporate investments. Cash flows used in investing activities were $16.6 million and $28.0 million, for the thirteen weeks ended April 4, 2021 and March 29, 2020, respectively.
We expect capital expenditures to be in the range of $140 - $160 million in 2021, including expenditures incurred to date, net of estimated landlord tenant improvement allowances, primarily to fund investments in new stores, remodels, maintenance capital expenditures and corporate capital expenditures. We expect to fund our capital expenditures with cash on hand and cash generated from operating activities.
27
Financing Activities
Cash flows used in financing activities were $2.5 million for the thirteen weeks ended April 4, 2021 compared to $87.2 million for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2020. During the thirteen weeks ended April 4, 2021, cash flows used in financing activities primarily consisted of $3.2 million for stock repurchases, partially offset by $0.9 million in proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
During the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2020, cash flows used in financing activities primarily consisted of $87.0 million in payments on our credit facilities.
Long-Term Debt and Credit Facilities
Long-term debt outstanding was $250.0 million as of April 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021.
See Note 4, “Long-Term Debt and Finance Lease Liabilities” of our unaudited consolidated financial statements for a description of our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and our Former Credit Facility (each as defined therein).
Share Repurchase Program

(1) |
The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement is scheduled to mature, and the commitments thereunder will terminate on March 27, 2023, subject to extensions as set forth therein. These borrowings are reflected in the “1-3 Years” column and discussed in the financing activities section above. See Note 4, “Long-Term Debt and Finance Lease Liabilities” to our unaudited consolidated financial statements located elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. |
|
(2) |
Represents estimated interest payments through the March 27, 2023 maturity date of our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement based on the outstanding amounts as of April 4, 2021 and based on LIBOR rates in effect at the time of this report, net of interest rate swaps. |
|
(3) |
Represents estimated payments for finance and operating lease obligations as of April 4, 2021. Lease obligations are presented gross without offset for subtenant rentals. We have subtenant agreements under which we will receive $1.1 million for the period of less than one year, $1.9 million for years one to three, $1.7 million for years three to five, and $1.4 million for the period beyond five years. |
We have other contractual commitments which were presented under Contractual Obligations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2021, and for which there have not been material changes since that filing through April 4, 2021.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not engage in any off-balance sheet financing activities, nor do we have any interest in entities referred to as variable interest entities.
Impact of Deflation and Inflation
Deflation and inflation in the prices of food and other products we sell may periodically affect our sales, gross profit and gross margin. Food deflation across multiple categories, particularly in produce, could reduce sales growth and earnings if our competitors react by lowering their retail pricing and expanding their promotional activities, which can lead to retail deflation higher than cost deflation that could reduce our sales, gross profit margins and comparable store sales. Food inflation, when combined with reduced consumer spending, could also reduce sales, gross profit margins and comparable store sales. The short-term impact of deflation and inflation is largely dependent on whether or not the effects are passed through to our customers, which is subject to competitive market conditions.
29
Food deflation and inflation is affected by a variety of factors and our determination of whether to pass on the effects of deflation or inflation to our customers is made in conjunction with our overall pricing and marketing strategies, as well as our competitors’ responses. Although we may experience periodic effects on sales, gross profit, gross margins and cash flows as a result of changing prices, we do not expect the effect of deflation or inflation to have a material impact on our ability to execute our long-term business strategy.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. These principles require us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales and expenses, cash flow and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Our critical accounting estimates include inventory valuations, lease assumptions, self-insurance reserves, impairment of long-lived assets, fair values of share-based awards, and income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and our actual results, our future financial statements will be affected.
There have been no substantial changes to these estimates, or the policies related to them during the thirteen weeks ended April 4, 2021. For a full discussion of these estimates and policies, see “Critical Accounting Estimates” in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2021.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
As described in Note 4, “Long-Term Debt and Finance Lease Liabilities” to our unaudited consolidated financial statements located elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement that bears interest at a rate based in part on LIBOR. Accordingly, we could be exposed to fluctuations in interest rates. Based solely on the $250.0 million principal outstanding under our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement as of April 4, 2021, each hundred basis point change in LIBOR would result in a change in interest expense by $2.5 million annually. We entered into an interest rate swap agreement in December 2017 to manage our cash flow associated with variable interest rates. The notional dollar amount of the two outstanding swaps at April 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021 was $250.0 million under which we pay a fixed rate and received a variable rate of interest (cash flow swap). Taking into account the interest rate swaps, based on the $250.0 million principal outstanding under our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement as of April 4, 2021, each hundred basis point change in LIBOR would result in no change in interest expense annually.
This sensitivity analysis assumes our mix of financial instruments and all other variables will remain constant in future periods. These assumptions are made in order to facilitate the analysis and are not necessarily indicative of our future intentions.
We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes (see Note 9, “Derivative Financial Instruments” of our unaudited consolidated financial statements).

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures under the Exchange Act as of April 4, 2021, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the quarterly period ended April 4, 2021, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
From time to time we are a party to legal proceedings, including matters involving personnel and employment issues, product liability, personal injury, intellectual property and other proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, which have not resulted in any material losses to date. Although management does not expect that the outcome in these proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations, litigation is inherently unpredictable. Therefore, we could incur judgments or enter into settlements of claims that could materially impact our results.
See Note 6, “Commitments and Contingencies” to our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding certain legal proceedings in which we are involved.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Certain factors may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties referenced below, together with all of the other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including our consolidated financial statements and related notes. Any of those risks could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results, financial condition, or prospects and cause the value of our common stock to decline, which could cause you to lose all or part of your investment.
There have been no material changes to the Risk Factors described under “Part I – Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2021.
