What improved

  • Revenue increased 9.9% versus the comparable filing period.

What weakened

No thresholded deterioration was identified.

Filing receipts

The decrease was primarily due to fluctuations in working capital including $91.0 million related to accounts receivable due to timing of vendor, customer, and other cash receipts, including tariff refunds; $54.7 million related to merchandise inventories, primarily driven by changes in inventory levels in our perishables and grocery divisions and gas inventory due primarily to increased cost per gallon; and $46.3 million related to 24 prepaid expenses and other current assets, primarily driven by increases in income taxes receivable as a result of purchased tax credits.

Merchandise gross margin rate, which excludes gasoline sales and membership fee income, decreased by approximately 10 basis points compared to the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, primarily driven by the Company’s continued investments in pricing, partially offset by tariff refund benefits recognized in the quarter.

Our net cash from operating activities can fluctuate from period to period due to several factors, including: the timing and mix of sales, the timing and volume of inventory purchases as the Company prepares for holiday seasons, lease-related activity, income tax and other payments.
