The company's second-quarter adjusted FIFO operating profit reached USD 1.076 billion, according to The Kroger Co.

Profitability adds a second marker

The operating result gives investors a figure beyond the share price. Kroger's investor-relations page also lists second-quarter net sales of USD 34.6 billion and adjusted earnings per share of USD 1.09. Adjusted earnings per share increased 5.00 percent from the same period last year, while identical sales excluding fuel increased 0.20 percent.

The mix matters because the sales figure grew only modestly, while adjusted FIFO operating profit reached USD 1.076 billion. That combination places greater emphasis on margins, pharmacy activity and cost control in the next update.
