Disaggregation of Revenues

In the second quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company announced that it is realigning its commercial wholesale organization into two product-centered business divisions to enhance service to its customers and suppliers with commercial teams providing a more customized product and service-centered experience. These two divisions, Conventional Grocery Products and Natural, Organic, Specialty & Fresh Products, each have focused sales teams aligned to the unique product and service needs of their retail customers. The Company updated its presentation of disaggregated revenue to align with how management evaluates its top-line commercial and financial performance. Prior period disaggregation of revenue amounts have been recast to conform with the Company’s current period presentation. The Company continues to effect the changes necessary to complete the divisional realignment.

The Company disaggregates revenue into the following three categories based on product and service offerings:

•Natural, which primarily reflects the wholesale distribution of natural, organic and specialty grocery and non-food products and services and includes the Company’s portfolio of natural owned brands and natural and organic snack food manufacturing business;
•Conventional, which primarily reflects the wholesale distribution of conventional grocery and non-food products and services and includes the Company’s portfolio of conventional owned brands; and
•Retail, which reflects the Company’s grocery and liquor stores operating under the Cub® Foods and Shoppers® banners that sell products directly to consumers.
The following tables detail the Company’s Net sales for the periods presented by the aforementioned categories for each of its segments. The Company does not record its revenues within its Wholesale reportable segment for financial reporting purposes by product group, and it is therefore impracticable for it to report them accordingly.

However, all of the Company’s revenue is earned in the United States and Canada, and international distribution occurs through freight-forwarders. The Company does not have any performance obligations on international shipments subsequent to delivery to the domestic port.
