NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

(1) Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring deferrals and accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The Company has evaluated subsequent events for disclosure through the date of issuance of the accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements and there were no material subsequent events which require additional disclosure. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K.

(2) Current Relevant Accounting Standards

The Company regularly monitors recently issued accounting standards and assesses their applicability and impact. The Company believes that there are no accounting standard updates that have or will have a material or significant impact on the Company’s accounting policies.

(3) Marketable Securities

The Company’s marketable securities are all classified as available-for-sale within “Current Assets” in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. FASB has established three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2Observable inputs, other than Level 1 inputs in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The Company’s marketable securities valued using Level 1 inputs include highly liquid equity securities, for which quoted market prices are available. The Company’s municipal bond and commercial paper portfolio is valued using Level 2 inputs. The Company’s municipal bonds and commercial paper are valued using a combination of pricing for similar securities, recently executed transactions, cash flow models with yield curves and other pricing models utilizing observable inputs, which are considered Level 2 inputs.

For Level 2 investment valuation, the Company utilizes standard pricing procedures of its investment advisory firm which includes various third-party pricing services. These procedures also require specific price monitoring practices as well as pricing review reports, valuation oversight and pricing challenge procedures to maintain the most accurate representation of investment fair market value.

The Company accrues interest on its bond and commercial paper portfolio throughout the life of each bond and commercial paper held. Dividends from the equity securities are recognized as received.

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared that the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) had become a pandemic, and on March 13, the U.S. President declared a National Emergency concerning the disease. This resulted in government mandated shutdowns, as well as multiple legislative acts to provide emergency economic assistance for individuals, families and businesses affected by the novel coronavirus pandemic. These events were accretive to our sales and gross profits compared to the time periods preceding the impact of the novel coronavirus pandemic. The Company is not able to speculate how the ensuing economy or unknown future related expenses will affect it after the governmental novel coronavirus pandemic measures have ended.

The Company continues to innovate and remain relevant to industry trends and offering customer convenience by presenting programs like “Weis 2 Go Online” ordering with curbside pickup and home delivery.

Two-Year Stacked Comparable Store Sales Analysis

Management is providing Comparable Store Sales Two-Year Stacked analysis, a non-GAAP measure, because management believes this metric is useful to investors and analysts. A Comparable Store Sales Two-Year Stacked analysis presents a comparison of results and trends over a longer period of time to demonstrate the effect of the novel coronavirus pandemic on the operating results of the Company. Information presented in the tables below is not intended for use as an alternative to any other measure of performance. It is not recommended that this table be considered a substitute for the Company’s operating results as reported in accordance with GAAP.

Year-over-year and sequential comparisons are the primary calculations used to analyze operating results, however, due to significant fluctuations caused by the novel coronavirus pandemic management believes it is necessary to provide a Two-Year Stacked Comparable Store Sales analysis. The following tables provide the two-year stacked comparable store sales, including and excluding fuel, for the periods ended ~~June~~March 26, ~~2021,~~2022, and ~~June~~March 27, ~~2020,~~2021, as well as periods ended ~~June~~March 27, ~~2020,~~2021, and ~~June 29, 2019,~~March 28, 2020, respectively.

When calculating the percentage change in comparable store sales, the Company defines a new store to be comparable after it has been in operation for five full fiscal quarters. Relocated stores and stores with expanded square footage are included in comparable store sales since these units are located in existing markets and are open during construction. Planned store dispositions are excluded from the calculation. The Company only includes retail food stores in the calculation.

OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(continued)

Total net sales increased 9.7% to $1.1 billion for the thirteen weeks ended March 26, 2022, from $1.0 billion for the thirteen weeks ended March 27, 2021. The increase in total net sales includes retail price inflation in center store, fresh, pharmacy services, and fuel product categories. Comparable store sales for the thirteen weeks ended ~~June~~March 26, ~~2021,~~2022, compared to the same period in ~~2020 decreased 5.8%~~2021 increased 9.4% including fuel and ~~7.7%~~7.6% excluding fuel. In the first twenty-six weeks, comparable store sales for 2021 also remained negative when compared to the same period in 2020, with decreases of 2.4% and 3.6% including and excluding fuel, respectively. The Company is experiencing a reduction in sales as compared to the increased sales demand in 2020 related to the novel coronavirus pandemic.

Although the Company experienced retail inflation and deflation in various commodities for the periods presented, ~~impacts of~~ the ~~novel coronavirus pandemic have caused uncertainty about future economic conditions and may change future~~Company anticipates overall product ~~mix.~~costs to increase given the recent inflationary indicators in the food retail industry. Management cannot accurately measure the full impact of inflation or deflation on retail pricing due to changes in the types of merchandise sold between periods, shifts in customer buying patterns and the fluctuation of competitive factors. Management remains confident in its ability to generate long-term sales growth in a highly competitive environment, but also understands some competitors have greater financial resources and could use these resources to take measures which could adversely affect the Company’s competitive position.

Cost of Sales and Gross Profit

Cost of sales consists of direct product costs (net of discounts and allowances), net advertising costs, distribution center and transportation costs, as well as manufacturing facility operations. ~~Decreased sales volume resulted in a decrease in cost of sales. Both direct product costs and distribution costs decrease when sales volume decreases.~~

Gross profit on sales ~~decreased 4.0%~~increased 9.8% for the thirteen weeks ended ~~June~~March 26, ~~2021,~~2022, compared to the same period in ~~2020.~~2021.
