NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
(1) Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited Condensed 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 Condensed Consolidated 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 future impact. The Company believes there are two accounting standard updates (ASU) that will have an impact on the Company’s disclosures.
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), that is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 requires disclosures of reconciliation of the expected tax at the applicable statutory federal income tax rate to the reported tax in a tabular format, using both percentages and amounts, broken out into specific categories with certain reconciling items of five percent or greater of the expected tax further broken out by nature and/or jurisdiction, disclosure of income taxes paid, net of refunds received, broken out between federal and state and local income taxes and payments to individual jurisdictions representing five percent or more of the total income tax payments must also be separately disclosed. The disclosures are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The disclosures in ASU 2023-09 should be applied on a prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on the Company's disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ("ASU 2024-03"), which requires incremental disclosures about specific expense categories, including but not limited to, purchases of inventory, compensation, depreciation, amortization and selling expenses. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods after December 15, 2026, and interim periods with annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption of ASU 2024-03 is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on the Company’s disclosures.
(3) Marketable Securities
The Company’s marketable securities are all classified as available-for-sale within “Current Assets” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The 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.
6
WEIS MARKETS, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
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 bond and commercial paper portfolio is 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. Unrealized gains and losses on debt securities are recognized in “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)” on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Dividends from the equity securities are recognized as received. Interest, dividends and unrealized gains and losses on equity securities are recognized in “Investment income (loss) and interest expense” on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. In the thirteen weeks ended September 27, 2025, the Company recognized investment income of $

SERP Investments
The Company also maintains a non-qualified supplemental executive retirement plan for certain of its employees which allows them to defer income to future periods. Participants in the plans earn a return on their deferrals based on mutual fund investments. The Company chooses to invest in the underlying mutual fund investments to offset the liability associated with the non-qualified deferred compensation plans. Such investments are reported on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as “SERP investment,” are classified as trading securities and are measured at fair value using Level 1 inputs with gains and losses included in “Investment income (loss) and interest expense” on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company recognized investment income of $

The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the Chief Operating Officer. The chief operating decision maker assesses performance for the segment and decides how to allocate resources based on operating income and net income that is also reported on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. The measure of segment assets used to assess performance and allocate resources is reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as total assets. The chief operating decision maker uses operating income and net income to evaluate income generated from segment assets in deciding whether to reinvest profits into the segment, such as for acquisitions. Operating income and net income are used to monitor budget versus actual results. The chief operating decision maker also uses operating income and net income in competitive analysis by benchmarking to the Company’s competitors. The competitive analysis along with the monitoring of budgeted versus actual results are used in assessing performance of the segment.

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 fluctuating economic activity 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 fluctuations caused by declining government benefits, pharmacy sales growth, and inflationary trends in the food retail industry, 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 September 27, 2025, and September 28, 2024, as well as periods ended September 28, 2024, and September 30, 2023, respectively. Comparable store sales increased 2.5 percent on an individual year-over-year basis and increased 5.0 percent on a two-year stacked basis for the thirteen weeks ended September 27, 2025. Comparable store sales increased 1.7 percent on an individual year-over-year basis and increased 3.7 percent on a two-year stacked basis for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025.

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.

According to the latest U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics’ report, the Seasonally Adjusted Food-at-Home Consumer Price Index increased 0.8% and 0.7% for the thirteen week periods ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024, respectively. The Seasonally Adjusted Food-at-Home Consumer Price Index increased 1.9% and 1.6% for the thirty-nine week periods ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024, respectively. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, the average price of gasoline in the Central Atlantic States decreased 8.7% or $0.31 per gallon in the thirteen weeks ended September 27, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. The average price of gasoline in the Central Atlantic States decreased 8.2% or $0.29 per gallon in the first thirty-nine weeks of 2025 when compared to the same period in 2024. Although the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics’ and the U.S. Department of Energy indices may be reflective of broader trends, they will not necessarily be indicative of the Company’s actual results.
Total net sales increased 4.4% to $1.2 billion for the thirteen weeks ended September 27, 2025, from $1.2 billion for the thirteen weeks ended September 28, 2024. In the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025, total net sales increased 2.9% to $3.6 billion from $3.5 billion in 2024. The increase in total net sales includes retail price inflation in grocery, pharmacy and fresh product categories. Comparable store sales for the thirteen weeks ended September 27, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024 increased 2.5% including fuel and excluding fuel. Comparable store sales for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024 increased 1.7% including fuel and 1.9% excluding fuel.
Although the Company experienced retail inflation and deflation in various commodities for the periods presented, the Company anticipates overall product 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.
Gross profit on sales increased 4.6% and 3.1% for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025, respectively, compared to the same period in 2024. Gross profit margin remained the same for the thirteen weeks and thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025 when compared to the same period in 2024.
Non-cash LIFO inventory valuation adjustments represent expense of $329 thousand in the first thirty-nine weeks of 2025 compared to expense of $2.5 million in the same period in 2024. Although the Company experienced cost inflation and deflation in various commodities for the periods presented, the Company anticipates overall product costs to increase given the recent inflationary trends in the food retail industry.

During the first thirty-nine weeks of 2025 and 2024, depreciation and amortization expense charged to “Operating, general and administrative expenses” was $83.1 million, or 2.3% of net sales and $75.7 million, or 2.1% of net sales, respectively. See the Liquidity and Capital Resources section for further information regarding the Company’s capital expenditure program.
A breakdown of the material increases (decreases) as a percent of sales in "Operating, general and administrative expenses" is as follows:

Provision for Income Taxes
The effective income tax rate was 25.0% and 27.2% for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024, respectively. The effective income tax rate differed from the federal statutory rate, primarily due to the effect of state taxes, net of permanent differences. On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was signed into law. This legislation includes provisions that permanently extend the expiring elements of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, including 100% bonus depreciation on qualifying property placed in service after January 19, 2025, and full expensing of domestic research and development expenditures. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ASC 740, “Income Taxes”, the Company recognized the enacted legislation and all required changes are reflected on the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 27, 2025. The legislation has multiple effective dates with some provisions taking effect in 2025 and others phased in through 2027. As a result of the Company’s elections, the 2025 cash taxes will decrease with no material impact to its effective tax rate.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The primary source of cash is cash flows generated from operations. In addition, the Company has access to a revolving credit agreement entered into on September 1, 2016, and last amended on September 29, 2023, with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement matures on October 1, 2027, and provides for an unsecured revolving credit facility with an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $30.0 million with an additional discretionary amount available of $70.0 million. As of September 27, 2025, the availability under the Credit Agreement was $17.4 million, net of $12.6 million letters of credit. The letters of credit are maintained primarily to support performance, payment, deposit or surety obligations of the Company.
As of September 27, 2025, the Company's investment portfolio totaled $122.9 million consisting of high grade bonds with maturity dates between one and thirty years and four large capitalized public company equity securities. In June 2025, the Company liquidated its commercial paper holdings in connection with the related party share purchase transaction referenced in Note 11. Subsequent to September 27, 2025, the Company divested a portion of its marketable securities portfolio to increase cash and cash equivalents liquidity to satisfy working capital obligations, selling $7.2 million in equity securities and $24.4 million in corporate and municipal bonds.
The Company’s capital expenditure program includes the construction of new superstores, the expansion and remodeling of existing units, the acquisition of sites for future expansion, new technology purchases and the continued upgrade of the Company’s distribution facilities and transportation fleet. Management continues to invest in its long-term capital expenditure program including plans to complete multiple carryover projects from previous years that were delayed due to labor and supply chain disruptions.
The Company anticipates funding the long-term capital expenditure program, the acquisition of retail stores, the construction of additional distribution facilities, repurchase of common stock, and cash dividends on common stock through its cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, cash flows from operating activities, and the Credit Agreement. The Company has no other commitment of capital resources as of September 27, 2025, other than the lease commitments on its store facilities and transportation equipment under operating leases that expire at various dates through 2038.
The Board of Directors’ 2004 resolution authorizing the repurchase of up to one million shares of the Company’s common stock has a remaining balance of 752,468 shares, and no repurchases were made during the quarter ended September 27, 2025.

Quarterly Cash Dividends
At its regular meeting held in October, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.34 per share, payable on November 24, 2025, to shareholders of record on November 10, 2025. The Company expects to continue paying regular cash dividends on a quarterly basis. However, the Board of Directors reconsiders the declaration of dividends quarterly. The Company pays these dividends at the discretion of the Board of Directors and the continuation of these payments and the amount of the dividends depends upon the results of operations, the financial condition of the Company and other factors which the Board of Directors deems relevant.

Operating
Cash flows from operating activities increased $20.3 million in the first thirty-nine weeks of 2025 compared to the first thirty-nine weeks of 2024. The increase in cash flow from operating activities is primarily due to lower cash income taxes and decreased accounts receivable offset by an increase in prepaid expenses when compared to the same period in 2024.
Investing
In the first thirty-nine weeks of 2025, when compared to the same period in 2024, the purchase of property and equipment, net of proceeds from sales, increased $53.4 million. Additionally, as a percent of sales, capital expenditures were 4.2% in the first thirty-nine weeks of 2025 compared to 3.0% in the first thirty-nine weeks of 2024. The increase as a percent of sales in 2025 compared to 2024 is primarily due to three new stores, one of which opened in Charlotte Hall, Maryland in August 2025. Intangible assets increased in the thirty-nine weeks of 2025 compared to 2024 with the purchase of $1.4 million in prescription files from Rite-Aid related to its announced bankruptcy and subsequent store closures. The purchases of marketable securities, net of proceeds from sales and maturities, decreased $74.3 million in the first thirty-nine weeks of 2025 when compared to the same period 2024. Proceeds from the sales of marketable securities were used to partially fund the share purchase transaction referenced in Note 11.
Financing
Net cash used in financing activities in the first thirty-nine weeks of 2025 was $166.7 million compared to $27.4 million in 2024. The Company purchased 2,153,846 shares of common stock from the family of the late Patricia G. Ross Weis at $65.00 per share on June 6, 2025 for an aggregate purchase price of $140 million dollars. The Company paid dividends of $26.7 million and $27.4 million in each of the first thirty-nine weeks of 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, together with the Company’s Disclosure Committee, evaluated the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the fiscal quarter ended September 27, 2025. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports filed or submitted by it under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in such reports was accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In connection with the evaluation described above, there was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended September 27, 2025, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Since December 28, 2024, there have been no material changes to the Company’s Risk Factors, except as noted below:
The Company’s operations are exposed to risk from global economic events.
In 2025, the United States imposed tariffs on specific goods imported from certain trading partners and suggested the potential for additional widespread tariffs in the near term. Subsequently, new tariffs were announced and paused. The Company may face risks related to the uncertainty of future government actions or regulation such as tariffs, duties, interpretations, administrative orders or applications that may have an adverse impact on the Company’s business and operations and the operations of the Company’s suppliers. Such risks may include lower sales volume, increased material costs, declining profitability, operational supply-chain disruptions and potential retaliatory actions.
