PART I
(All dollar amounts are in thousands, except per share and per square foot data).
ITEM I. BUSINESS
GENERAL
Village Super Market, Inc. (the “Company” or “Village”) was founded in 1937. Village operates a chain of 29 ShopRite supermarkets, eighteen of which are located in northern New Jersey, eight in southern New Jersey, two in Maryland and one in northeastern Pennsylvania. The Company is a member of Wakefern Food Corporation ("Wakefern"), the nation's largest retailer-owned food cooperative and owner of the ShopRite name. This relationship provides Village many of the economies of scale in purchasing, distribution, private label products, advanced retail technology, marketing and advertising associated with chains of greater size and geographic coverage.
Village competes by using low pricing, providing a superior customer experience and a broad range of consistently available quality products, including ShopRite private labeled products. The ShopRite Price Plus preferred customer program enables Village to offer continuity programs, focus on target marketing initiatives and to offer discounts and attach digital coupons directly to a customer's Price Plus card.
During fiscal 2017, sales per store were $55,330 and sales per average square foot of selling space were $1,186. The Company gives ongoing attention to the décor and format of its stores and tailors each store's product mix to the preferences of the local community.
Below is a summary of the range of store sizes at July 29, 2017:
|
| |
Total Square Feet | Number of Stores |
| |
Greater than 60,000 | 15 |
50,001 to 60,000 | 7 |
40,000 to 50,000 | 5 |
Less than 40,000 | 2 |
Total | 29 |
These larger store sizes enable the Company’s stores to provide a “one-stop” shopping experience and to feature expanded higher margin specialty departments such as an on-site bakery, an expanded delicatessen, a variety of natural and organic foods, ethnic and international foods, prepared foods and pharmacies. Our stores emphasize a Power Alley, which features high margin, fresh, convenience offerings in an area within the store that provides quick customer entry and exit for those customers shopping for today's lunch or dinner. Certain of our stores include a Village Food Garden, featuring a restaurant style kitchen and a wide variety of store prepared specialty foods for both take-home and in-store dining.
Village also has on-site registered dieticians in seventeen stores that provide customers with free, private consultations on healthy meals and proper nutrition, as well as leading health related events both in store and in the community as part of the Well Everyday program. Expanded services such as a culinary classroom, fitness studio and a learning and childcare center have been incorporated into certain new and expanded stores.
We have thirteen stores that offer ShopRite from Home covering most of the communities served by our stores. ShopRite from Home is an online ordering system that provides for in-store pickup or home delivery. Customers can browse our circular, create and edit shopping lists and use ShopRite from Home through shoprite.com or on their smart phones or tablets through the ShopRite app.

A variety of factors affect the profitability of each of the Company's stores, including competition, size, access and parking, lease terms, management supervision, and the strength of the ShopRite trademark in the local community. Village continually evaluates individual stores to determine if they should be closed, remodeled or replaced.
DEVELOPMENT AND EXPANSION
The Company has an ongoing program to upgrade and expand its supermarket chain. This program has included store remodels as well as the opening or acquisition of additional stores. When remodeling, Village has sought, whenever possible, to increase the amount of selling space in its stores.
Village has budgeted $50 million for capital expenditures for fiscal 2018. Planned expenditures include the construction of a new store in the Bronx, New York, a replacement store, two major remodels, several smaller remodels and various technology upgrade projects.
In fiscal 2017, Village completed a substantial portion of the remodel of the Chester, New Jersey store, several smaller remodels and energy efficient lighting projects in multiple stores.
In fiscal 2016, Village completed the expansion and remodel of the Stirling, New Jersey store, substantially completed one major remodel and completed several smaller remodels.
In fiscal 2015, Village completed a substantial portion of the expansion and remodel of the Stirling, New Jersey store and completed several smaller remodels.
In fiscal 2014, Village completed the construction of a replacement store in Union, New Jersey, and a replacement store in Hanover Township, New Jersey that serves the greater Morristown area and replaced the Morris Plains, New Jersey store.
In fiscal 2013, Village began construction of the replacement store in Hanover Township, New Jersey and completed three major remodels.
Additional store remodels and sites for new stores are in various stages of development. Village will also consider additional acquisitions should appropriate opportunities arise.
WAKEFERN FOOD CORPORATION
The Company is the second largest member of Wakefern and owns 12.9% of Wakefern’s outstanding stock as of July 29, 2017. Wakefern, which was organized in 1946, is the nation’s largest retailer-owned food cooperative. Wakefern and its 49 shareholder members operate 345 supermarkets and other retail formats, including 96 stores operated by Wakefern. Only Wakefern and its members are entitled to use the ShopRite name and trademark, and to participate in ShopRite advertising and promotional programs.
The principal benefits to the Company from its relationship with Wakefern are the use of the ShopRite name and trademark, volume purchasing, ShopRite private label products, distribution and warehousing economies of scale, ShopRite advertising and promotional programs (including the ShopRite Price Plus card) and the development of advanced retail technology. The Company believes that the ShopRite name is widely recognized by its customers and is a factor in their decisions about where to shop. ShopRite private label products accounted for approximately 11.5% of sales in fiscal 2017.
Wakefern distributes as a "patronage dividend" to each of its stockholders a share of substantially all of its earnings in proportion to the dollar volume of purchases by the stockholder from Wakefern during each fiscal year.
While Wakefern has a substantial professional staff, it operates as a member owned cooperative. Executives of most members make contributions of time to the business of Wakefern. Executives of the Company spend a significant amount of their time working on various Wakefern committees, which oversee and direct Wakefern purchasing, merchandising and other programs. In addition, Nicholas Sumas, the Company’s Chief Marketing Officer, is a member of the Wakefern Board of Directors.
Most of the Company's advertising is developed and placed by Wakefern's professional advertising staff. Wakefern is responsible for all television, radio and major newspaper advertisements. Wakefern bills its members using various formulas which allocate advertising costs in accordance with the estimated proportional benefits to each member from such advertising. The Company also places Wakefern developed materials with local newspapers. In addition, Wakefern and its affiliates provide the Company with other services including liability and property insurance, supplies, certain equipment purchasing, coupon processing, certain financial accounting applications, retail technology support, including shoprite.com and the ShopRite smart phone app, and other store services.
Wakefern operates warehouses and distribution facilities in Elizabeth, Keasbey, Whitehouse, Dayton, Newark and Jamesburg, New Jersey and Gouldsboro and Breinigsville, Pennsylvania. The Company and all other members of Wakefern are parties to the Wakefern Stockholders' Agreement which provides for certain commitments by, and restrictions on, all shareholders of Wakefern. This agreement extends until ten years from the date that stockholders representing 75% of Wakefern sales notify Wakefern that those stockholders request the Wakefern Stockholders' Agreement be terminated. Each member is obligated to purchase from Wakefern a minimum of 85% of its requirements for products offered by Wakefern. If this purchase obligation is not met, the member is required to pay Wakefern's profit contribution shortfall attributable to this failure. The Company fulfilled this obligation in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015. This agreement also requires that in the event of unapproved changes in control of the Company or a sale of the Company or of individual Company stores, except to a qualified successor, the Company in such cases must pay Wakefern an amount equal to the annual profit contribution shortfall attributable to the sale of a store or change in control. No payments are required if the volume lost by a shareholder as a result of the sale of a store is replaced by such shareholder by increased volume in existing or new stores. A "qualified successor" must be, or agree to become, a member of Wakefern, and may not own or operate any supermarkets, other than ShopRite, PriceRite or The Fresh Grocer supermarkets, in the states of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine or the District of Columbia, or own or operate more than 25 non-ShopRite supermarkets in any other locations in the United States.
Wakefern, under circumstances specified in its bylaws, may refuse to sell merchandise to, and may repurchase the Wakefern stock of, any member. Such circumstances include a member's bankruptcy filing, certain unapproved transfers by a member of its supermarket business or its capital stock in Wakefern, unapproved acquisition by a member of certain supermarket or grocery wholesale supply businesses, the material breach by a member of any provision of the bylaws of Wakefern or any agreement with Wakefern, or a failure to fulfill financial obligations to Wakefern.
Any material change in Wakefern's method of operation or a termination or material modification of the Company's relationship with Wakefern following termination of the above agreements, or otherwise, might have an adverse impact on the conduct of the Company's business and could involve additional expense for the Company. The failure of any Wakefern member to fulfill its obligations under these agreements or a member's insolvency or withdrawal from Wakefern could result in increased costs to remaining members.
Wakefern does not prescribe geographical franchise areas to its members. The specific locations at which the Company, other members of Wakefern, or Wakefern itself, may open new units under the ShopRite, PriceRite and The Fresh Grocer names are, however, subject to the approval of Wakefern's Site Development Committee. This committee is composed of persons who are not employees or members of Wakefern. Committee decisions to deny a site application may be appealed to the Wakefern Board of Directors. Wakefern assists its members in their site selection by providing appropriate demographic data, volume projections and estimates of the impact of the proposed store on existing member supermarkets in the area.
Each of Wakefern's members is required to make capital contributions to Wakefern based on the number of stores operated by that member and the purchases from Wakefern generated by those stores. As additional stores are opened or acquired by a member, additional capital must be contributed by it to Wakefern. The Company’s investment in Wakefern and affiliates was $27,093 at July 29, 2017. The total amount of debt outstanding from all capital pledges to Wakefern is $406 at July 29, 2017. The maximum per store capital contribution increased from $900 to $925 in fiscal 2017, resulting in an additional $626 capital pledge, which was paid in fiscal 2017.
As required by the Wakefern bylaws, the Company’s investment in Wakefern is pledged to Wakefern to secure the Company’s obligations to Wakefern. In addition, five members of the Sumas family have guaranteed the Company’s obligations to Wakefern. These personal guarantees are required of any 5% shareholder of the Company who is active in the operation of the Company. Wakefern does not own any securities of the Company or its subsidiaries. The Company’s investment in Wakefern entitles the Company to enough votes to elect one member to the Wakefern Board of Directors due to cumulative voting rights.
LABOR
As of July 29, 2017, the Company employed approximately 6,552 persons with approximately 74% working part-time. Approximately 91% of the Company’s employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. Contracts with the Company’s seven unions have expiration dates between July 2017 and July 2021. Approximately 6% of our associates are represented by unions whose contracts have expired or will expire within one year. Most of the Company’s competitors are similarly unionized.
SEASONALITY
The majority of our revenues are generally not seasonal in nature. However, revenues tend to be higher during the major holidays throughout the year.
REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT
The Company’s business requires various licenses and the registration of facilities with state and federal health and drug regulatory agencies. These licenses and registration requirements obligate the Company to observe certain rules and regulations, and a violation of these rules and regulations could result in a suspension or revocation of licenses or registrations and fines or penalties. In addition, most licenses require periodic renewals. The Company has not experienced material difficulties with respect to obtaining or retaining licenses and registrations.
COMPETITION
For the disclosure related to our competition, see Item 1A under the heading “Competitive Environment.”
AVAILABLE INFORMATION
As a member of the Wakefern cooperative, Village relies upon our customer focused website, shoprite.com, for interaction with customers and prospective employees. This website is maintained by Wakefern for the benefit of all ShopRite supermarkets, and therefore does not contain any financial information related to the Company.
The Company will provide paper copies of the annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and press releases free of charge upon request to any shareholder. In addition, electronic copies of these filings can be obtained at sec.gov.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
COMPETITIVE ENVIRONMENT
The supermarket business is highly competitive and characterized by narrow profit margins. Results of operations may be materially adversely impacted by competitive pricing and promotional programs, industry consolidation and competitor store openings. Village competes directly with multiple retail formats both in-store and online, including national, regional and local supermarket chains as well as warehouse clubs, supercenters, drug stores, discount general merchandise stores, fast food chains, restaurants, dollar stores and convenience stores. Some of the Company's principal competitors include Acme, Aldi, Amazon, BJs, Costco, Foodtown, Giant, Kings, Safeway, Stop & Shop, Target, Wal-Mart, Wegmans, Weis and Whole Foods. Competition with
these outlets is based on price, store location, convenience, promotion, product assortment, quality and service. Some of these competitors have greater financial resources, lower merchandise acquisition costs and lower operating expenses than we do.
GEOGRAPHIC CONCENTRATION AND MARKET CONDITIONS
The Company’s stores are concentrated in New Jersey, with two stores in Maryland and one in northeastern Pennsylvania. We are vulnerable to economic downturns in New Jersey in addition to those that may affect the country as a whole. Economic conditions such as inflation, deflation, interest rate fluctuations, movements in energy costs, social programs, minimum wage legislation, unemployment rates and changing demographics may adversely affect our sales and profits. Further, since our store base is concentrated in densely populated metropolitan areas, opportunities for future store expansion may be limited, which may adversely affect our business and results of operations.
WAKEFERN RELATIONSHIP
Village purchases substantially all of its merchandise from Wakefern. In addition, Wakefern provides the Company with support services in numerous areas including advertising, liability and property insurance, supplies, certain equipment purchasing, coupon processing, certain financial accounting applications, retail technology support, and other store services. Further, Village receives patronage dividends and other product incentives from Wakefern.
Any material change in Wakefern’s method of operation or a termination or material modification of Village’s relationship with Wakefern could have an adverse impact on the conduct of the Company’s business and could involve additional expense for Village. The failure of any Wakefern member to fulfill its obligations to Wakefern or a member’s insolvency or withdrawal from Wakefern could result in increased costs to the Company. Additionally, an adverse change in Wakefern’s results of operations could have an adverse effect on Village’s results of operations.
LABOR RELATIONS
Approximately 91% of the Company’s employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements with unions. Contracts with the Company’s seven unions have expiration dates between July 2017 and July 2021. Approximately 6% of our associates are represented by unions whose contracts have expired or will expire within one year. In future negotiations with labor unions, we expect that rising health care and pension costs, among other issues, will continue to be important topics for negotiation. Upon the expiration of our collective bargaining agreements, work stoppages by the affected workers could occur if we are unable to negotiate acceptable contracts with labor unions. This could significantly disrupt our operations or have an adverse impact on our financial results. Further, if we are unable to control health care and pension costs provided for in collective bargaining agreements, we may experience increased operating costs and an adverse impact on our results of operations.
FOOD SAFETY
The Company could be adversely affected if consumers lose confidence in the safety and quality of the food supply chain. Adverse publicity about these types of concerns, whether or not valid, could discourage consumers from buying our products. The real or perceived sale of contaminated food products by us could result in a loss of consumer confidence and product liability claims, which could have a material adverse effect on our sales and operations.
MULTI-EMPLOYER PENSION PLANS
The Company is required to make contributions to multi-employer pension plans in amounts established under collective bargaining agreements. Pension expense for these plans is recognized as contributions are funded. Benefits generally are based on a fixed amount for each year of service. Based on the most recent information available to us, certain of these multi-employer plans are underfunded. As a result, we expect that contributions to these plans may increase. Additionally, the benefit levels and related items will be issues in the negotiation of our collective bargaining agreements. Under current law, an employer that withdraws or partially withdraws from a multi-employer pension plan may incur a withdrawal liability to the plan, which represents the portion of the plan’s underfunding that is allocable to the withdrawing employer under complex actuarial and allocation rules. The failure of an employer to fund these obligations can impact remaining employers. The amount of any increase or decrease in our required contributions to these multi-employer pension plans will depend upon the outcome of collective bargaining, actions taken by trustees who manage the plans, government regulations and the actual return on assets held in the plans, among other factors. See Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information relating to our participation in multi-employer pension plans.
INSURANCE
The Company uses a combination of insurance and self-insurance to provide for potential liability for workers’ compensation, automobile and general liability, property, director and officers’ liability, and certain employee health care benefits. Any projection of losses is subject to a high degree of variability. Changes in legal claims, trends and interpretations, variability in inflation rates, changes in the nature and method of claims settlement, benefit level changes due to changes in applicable laws, and insolvency of insurance carriers could all affect our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
Our long-lived assets, primarily store property, equipment and fixtures, are subject to periodic testing for impairment. Failure of our asset groups to achieve sufficient levels of cash flow could result in impairment charges on long-lived assets.
TAXES
The Company’s effective tax rate may be impacted by the results of tax examinations and changes in tax laws.
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
Wakefern provides all members of the cooperative with information system support that enables us to effectively manage our business data, customer transactions, inventory management, communications and other business processes. These information systems are subject to damage or interruption from power outages, computer or telecommunications failures, computer viruses and related malicious software, catastrophic weather events, or human error. Any material interruption of our or Wakefern’s information systems could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations.
Due to the nature of our business, personal information about our customers, vendors and associates is received and stored in these information systems. In addition, confidential information is transmitted through our ShopRite from Home online business at shoprite.com and through the ShopRite app. Unauthorized parties may attempt to access information stored in or to sabotage or disrupt these systems. Wakefern and the Company maintain substantial security measures to prevent and detect unauthorized access to such information, including utilizing third-party service providers for monitoring our networks, security reviews, and other functions. It is possible that computer hackers, cyber terrorists and others may be able to defeat the security measures in place at the Company, Wakefern or those of third-party service providers.
Any breach of these security measures and loss of confidential information, which could be undetected for a period of time, could damage our reputation with customers, vendors and associates, cause Wakefern and Village to incur significant costs to protect any customers, vendors and associates whose personal data was compromised, cause us to make changes to our information systems and could result in government enforcement actions and litigation against Wakefern and Village from outside parties. Any such breach could have a material adverse impact on our operations, consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity if the related costs to Wakefern and Village are not covered by or are in excess of carried insurance policies. In addition, a security breach could require Wakefern and Village to devote significant management resources to address problems created by the security breach and restore our reputation.
ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
Not applicable.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
As of July 29, 2017, Village owns the sites of six of its supermarkets (containing 412,000 square feet of total space), all of which are freestanding stores, except the Egg Harbor store, which is part of a shopping center. The remaining 23 supermarkets (containing 1,305,000 square feet of total space) and the corporate headquarters are leased, with initial lease terms generally ranging from 20 to 30 years, usually with renewal options. Sixteen of these leased stores are located in shopping centers and the remaining seven are freestanding stores. In October 2015, the Company sold the land and building of a closed store in Washington, New Jersey for $900.
The annual rent, including capitalized leases and closed stores, for all of the Company's leased facilities for the year ended July 29, 2017 was approximately $17,484.
Village is a limited partner in two partnerships, one of which owns a shopping center in which one of our leased stores is located. The Company is also a general partner in a partnership that is a lessor of one of the Company's freestanding stores.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In prior years, the state of New Jersey issued two separate tax assessments related to nexus beginning in fiscal 2000 and the deductibility of certain payments between subsidiaries beginning in fiscal 2002. The Company had contested both of these assessments through the state’s conference and appeals process and Tax Court. On February 27, 2015, the Company reached an agreement with the New Jersey Division of Taxation (the "Division") whereby the Company paid $33,000 in March 2015 to settle the disputes with the Division for fiscal years 2000 through 2014. The dispute and related settlement with the Division is described in Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Superstorm Sandy devastated our area on October 29, 2012 and resulted in the closure of almost all of our stores for periods of time ranging from a few hours to eight days. Village disposed of substantial amounts of perishable product and also incurred repair, labor and other costs as a result of the storm. The Company has property, casualty and business interruption insurance, subject to deductibles and coverage limits. During fiscal 2013, Wakefern began the process of working with our insurers to recover the damages and Village recorded estimated insurance recoveries of $4,913. In October 2013, Wakefern, as the policy holder, filed suit against the carrier seeking payment of the remaining claims due for all Wakefern members. The suit was the result of different interpretations of policy terms, including whether the policy's named storm deductible applied. On October 29, 2014, the Court issued its opinion on the matter in favor of the carrier. Based on this decision and its related impact, the Company concluded that recovery of further proceeds was not probable and recorded a $2,270 charge to Operating and administrative expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 to write-off the remaining insurance receivable. Wakefern continues to pursue further recovery of uncollected amounts from the carrier and other sources. As a result, the Company received an additional $940 in insurance proceeds in February 2016 which was recognized as a reduction in Operating and administrative expense in fiscal 2016. Any further proceeds recovered will be recognized as they are received. As of July 29, 2017, Village has collected $3,583.
The Company is involved in other litigation incidental to the normal course of business. Company management is of the opinion that the ultimate resolution of these legal proceedings should not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity of the Company.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(Dollars in thousands, except per share and per square foot data).
OVERVIEW
Village Super Market, Inc. (the “Company” or “Village”) operates a chain of 29 ShopRite supermarkets in New Jersey, Maryland and northeastern Pennsylvania. Village is the second largest member of Wakefern Food Corporation (“Wakefern”), the nation’s largest retailer-owned food cooperative and owner of the ShopRite name. This ownership interest in Wakefern provides Village with many of the economies of scale in purchasing, distribution, advanced retail technology, marketing and advertising associated with larger chains.
The supermarket industry is highly competitive and characterized by narrow profit margins. The Company competes directly with multiple retail formats, both in-store and online, including national, regional and local supermarket chains as well as warehouse clubs, supercenters, drug stores, discount general merchandise stores, fast food chains, restaurants, dollar stores and convenience stores. Village competes by using low pricing, providing a superior customer experience and a broad range of consistently available
quality products, including ShopRite private labeled products. The ShopRite Price Plus preferred customer program enables Village to offer continuity programs, focus on target marketing initiatives and to offer discounts and attach digital coupons directly to a customer's Price Plus card.
The Company’s stores, six of which are owned, average 59,000 total square feet. These larger store sizes enable the Company’s stores to provide a “one-stop” shopping experience and to feature expanded higher margin specialty departments such as an on-site bakery, an expanded delicatessen, a variety of natural and organic foods, ethnic and international foods, prepared foods and pharmacies.
Many of our stores emphasize a Power Alley, which features high margin, fresh, convenience offerings in an area within the store that provides quick customer entry and exit for those customers shopping for today's lunch or dinner. Certain of our stores include the Village Food Garden concept featuring a restaurant style kitchen, and several kiosks offering a wide variety of store prepared specialty foods for both take-home and in-store dining.
Village also has on-site registered dieticians in seventeen stores that provide customers with free, private consultations on healthy meals and proper nutrition, as well as leading health related events both in store and in the community as part of the Well Everyday program. We have thirteen stores that offer ShopRite from Home covering most of the communities served by our stores. ShopRite from Home is an online ordering system that provides for in-store pickup or home delivery. Customers can browse our circular, create and edit shopping lists and use ShopRite from Home through shoprite.com or on their smart phones or tablets through the ShopRite app.
We consider a variety of indicators to evaluate our performance, such as same store sales; percentage of total sales by department (mix); shrink; departmental gross profit percentage; sales per labor hour; units per labor hour; and hourly labor rates.
The Company utilizes a 52 - 53 week fiscal year, ending on the last Saturday in the month of July. Fiscal 2017 and 2015 contain 52 weeks. Fiscal 2016 contains 53 weeks.

SALES
Sales were $1,604,574 in fiscal 2017, a decrease of $30,330, or 1.9% from fiscal 2016. Sales decreased due primarily to fiscal 2016 containing 53 weeks. Same store sales, excluding the impact of the 53rd week in fiscal 2016, were flat. Same store sales increased due primarily to three competitor store closings and sales growth in recently remodeled and expanded stores in Stirling and Chester. These increases were offset primarily by four competitor store openings and deflation, particularly in the meat, produce and dairy departments. New stores and replacement stores are included in same store sales in the quarter after the store has been in operation for four full quarters. Store renovations and expansions are included in same store sales immediately.
Sales were $1,634,904 in fiscal 2016, an increase of $51,115, or 3.2% from fiscal 2015. Sales increased $29,233, or 1.8%, due to fiscal 2016 containing 53 weeks. Same store sales, excluding the impact of the 53rd week, increased 1.4%. Same store sales increased due to the closing of two competitor stores and continued sales growth in the expanded or replaced stores in Stirling, Greater Morristown and Union. These increases were partially offset by six new competitor store openings, including stores formerly operated by A&P.
GROSS PROFIT
Gross profit as a percentage of sales was flat in fiscal 2017 compared to fiscal 2016. Increased departmental gross margin percentages (.09%) and more favorable product mix (.02%) were offset by decreased patronage dividends (.07%) and higher promotional spending (.04%).
Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased .13% in fiscal 2016 compared to fiscal 2015 primarily due to decreased departmental gross margin percentages (.21%) and increased warehouse assessment charges from Wakefern (.04%). These decreases were partially offset by lower promotional spending (.07%), improved mix (.02%) and higher patronage dividends (.02%).
OPERATING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE
Operating and administrative expense as a percentage of sales increased .11% in fiscal 2017 compared to fiscal 2016. Fiscal 2017 includes a non-recurring credit received related to multi-employer health and welfare benefits (.05%) and fiscal 2016 includes a gain for Superstorm Sandy insurance proceeds received (.06%). Excluding these items from both periods, operating and administrative expense as a percentage of sales increased .10% compared to fiscal 2016 primarily due to higher payroll (.30%) partially offset by decreased fringe benefit costs (.11%). Payroll costs increased due primarily to reduced operating leverage as a result of flat same store sales and investments in service departments, including the newly remodeled Chester store. Fringe benefit costs decreased due primarily to lower non-union pension expense (.15%) and lower healthcare costs (.08%).
Operating and administrative expense as a percentage of sales decreased .09% in fiscal 2016 compared to fiscal 2015. As described in note 9 to the consolidated financial statements, fiscal 2015 includes a charge to write-off all remaining Superstorm Sandy insurance receivables (.14%) and fiscal 2016 includes a gain related to recovery of a portion of those receivables (.06%). Excluding these items from both periods, Operating and administrative expense as a percentage of sales increased .11% due primarily to higher claim costs in our self-insured medical plan (.11%) and legal and consulting fees (.13%). These increases were partially offset by lower workers compensation costs (.14%).
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION
Depreciation and amortization expense was $24,482, $24,101 and $23,330 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Depreciation and amortization expense increased in fiscal 2017 and 2016 compared to the prior years due to depreciation related to capital expenditures.
INTEREST EXPENSE
Interest expense was $4,452, $4,495 and $4,535, in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Interest expense was flat in fiscal 2017 compared to fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2015.
INTEREST INCOME
Interest income was $2,841, $2,506 and $2,399 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Interest income increased in both fiscal 2017 and 2016 compared to fiscal 2015 due primarily to higher interest rates earned on variable rate investments and higher amounts invested.
INCOME TAXES
The Company’s effective income tax rate was 41.4%, 40.8% and 26.0% in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Income taxes in fiscal 2015 include a tax benefit of $6,452 related to the settlement with the New Jersey Division of Taxation, net of $841 of interest and penalties accrued prior to settlement. Excluding these items, the effective income tax rate was 41.6% in fiscal 2015. The effective income tax rate in fiscal 2016 was lower than both fiscal 2017 and 2015 due primarily to increased Work Opportunity Tax Credits.
The dispute and related settlement with the New Jersey Division of Taxation is described in Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
NET INCOME
Net income was $22,921 in fiscal 2017 compared to $25,044 in fiscal 2016. Fiscal 2017 includes a $465 (net of tax) non-recurring credit received related to multi-employer health and welfare benefits. Fiscal 2016 includes estimated net income of $280 due to the fiscal year including a 53rd week and a $545 (net of tax) gain due to the recovery of insurance receivables related to Superstorm Sandy. Excluding these items from both periods, net income decreased 7% in fiscal 2017 compared to fiscal 2016 due primarily to flat same store sales and increased operating expenses.
Net income was $25,044 in fiscal 2016 compared to $30,620 in fiscal 2015. Fiscal 2016 includes estimated net income of $280 due to the fiscal year including a 53rd week and a $545 (net of tax) gain due to the recovery of insurance receivables related to Superstorm Sandy. Fiscal 2015 includes a charge to write-off all remaining insurance receivables related to Superstorm Sandy of $1,340 (net of tax), a $316 (net of tax) impairment charge related to the property of a closed store and a tax benefit of $6,452 related to settlement of the New Jersey tax dispute, net of interest and penalties accrued prior to settlement. Excluding these items from both periods, net income decreased 6% in fiscal 2016 compared to the prior year primarily due to a lower gross profit percentage and higher operating and administrative expense.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Critical accounting policies are those accounting policies that management believes are important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. These policies require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
IMPAIRMENT
The Company reviews the carrying values of its long-lived assets, such as property, equipment and fixtures for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. Such review analyzes the undiscounted estimated future net cash flows from asset groups at the store level to determine if the carrying value of such assets are recoverable from their respective cash flows. If impairment is indicated, it is measured by comparing the fair value of the long-lived asset groups, which include long-term leases, to their carrying value.
Goodwill is tested for impairment at the end of each fiscal year, or more frequently if circumstances dictate. The Company utilizes valuation techniques, such as earnings multiples, in addition to the Company’s market capitalization, to assess goodwill for impairment. Calculating the fair value of a reporting unit requires the use of estimates. Management believes the fair value of Village’s one reporting unit exceeds its carrying value at July 29, 2017. Should the Company’s carrying value of its one reporting unit exceed its fair value, the amount of any resulting goodwill impairment may be material to the Company’s financial position and results of operations.
PATRONAGE DIVIDENDS
As a stockholder of Wakefern, Village earns a share of Wakefern’s earnings, which are distributed as a “patronage dividend.” This dividend is based on a distribution of substantially all of Wakefern’s operating profits for its fiscal year (which ends on or about September 30) in proportion to the dollar volume of purchases by each member from Wakefern during that fiscal year. Patronage dividends are recorded as a reduction of cost of sales as merchandise is sold. Village accrues estimated patronage dividends due from Wakefern quarterly based on an estimate of the annual Wakefern patronage dividend and an estimate of Village’s share of this annual dividend based on Village’s estimated proportional share of the dollar volume of business transacted with Wakefern that year. The patronage dividend receivable based on these estimates was $12,655 and $13,185 at July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016, respectively.
PENSION PLANS
The determination of the Company’s obligation and expense for Company-sponsored pension plans is dependent, in part, on Village’s selection of assumptions used by actuaries in calculating those amounts. These assumptions are described in Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and include, among others, the discount rate, the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets and the rate of increase in compensation costs. Actual results that differ from the Company’s assumptions are accumulated and amortized over future periods and, therefore, generally affect recognized expense in future periods. While management believes that its assumptions are appropriate, significant differences in actual experience or significant changes in the Company’s assumptions may materially affect cash flows, pension obligations and future expense.
The objective of the discount rate assumption is to reflect the rate at which the Company’s pension obligations could be effectively settled based on the expected timing and amounts of benefits payable to participants under the plans. Our methodology for selecting the discount rate as of July 29, 2017 was to match the plans' cash flows to that of a yield curve on high-quality fixed-income investments. Based on this method, we utilized a weighted-average discount rate of 3.60% at July 29, 2017 compared to 3.08% at July 30, 2016. Changes in the discount rate and the mortality table utilized decreased the projected benefit obligation by approximately $7,567 at July 29, 2017. Village evaluated the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets of 7.5% and the expected increase in compensation costs of 4 to 4.5% and concluded no changes in these assumptions were necessary in estimating pension plan obligations and expense.
Sensitivity to changes in the major assumptions used in the calculation of the Company’s pension plans is as follows:
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Percentage point change | | Projected benefit obligation decrease (increase) | | Expense decrease (increase) |
Discount rate | + / - 1.0 % | | $ | 9,503 |
| $ | (11,951 | ) | | $ | 605 |
| $ | (737 | ) |
Expected return on assets | + / - 1.0 % | | $ | — |
| — |
| | $ | 547 |
| $ | (550 | ) |
Village contributed $3,000 and $3,524 in fiscal 2017 and 2016, respectively, to these Company-sponsored pension plans. Village expects to contribute $3,500 in fiscal 2018 to these plans. Substantially all contributions in 2017 and 2016 are voluntary contributions.
UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS
The Company is subject to periodic audits by various taxing authorities. These audits may challenge certain of the Company’s tax positions such as the timing and amount of deductions and the allocation of income to various tax jurisdictions. Accounting for these uncertain tax positions requires significant management judgment. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates and could significantly affect the effective tax rate and cash flows in future years.
On February 27, 2015, the Company reached an agreement with the New Jersey Division of Taxation to settle the disputes related to nexus and the deductibility of certain payments between subsidiaries for fiscal years 2000 through 2014. See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

LIQUIDITY and CAPITAL RESOURCES
CASH FLOWS
Net cash provided by operating activities was $46,153 in fiscal 2017 compared to $64,101 in fiscal 2016 and $17,468 in fiscal 2015. Net cash provided by operating activities was generated primarily by changes in working capital and net income adjusted for non-cash items including depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, deferred taxes and the provision to value inventories at LIFO.
The decrease in non-cash items in fiscal 2017 and 2016, compared to fiscal 2015, was primarily due to the impact on deferred taxes in fiscal 2015 resulting from the $33,000 settlement with the New Jersey Division of Taxation.
Working capital changes increased (decreased) net cash provided by operating activities by $(6,551), $12,002 and $(54,616) in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Working capital changes in income taxes receivable/payable, merchandise inventories, accounts payable to Wakefern and other assets and liabilities decreased cash provided by operating activities in fiscal 2017 compared to fiscal 2016. Working capital changes in income taxes receivable/payable, merchandise inventories, accounts payable to Wakefern and accrued wages and benefits increased cash provided by operating activities in fiscal 2016 compared to fiscal 2015. The decrease in income taxes receivable/payable in fiscal 2015 was due primarily to the $33,000 settlement with the New Jersey Division of Taxation.
During fiscal 2017, Village used cash to fund capital expenditures of $27,726, dividends of $12,788, treasury stock purchases of $4,081 and invested an additional $1,945 in notes receivable from Wakefern. Capital expenditures primarily includes costs associated with the completion of the remodel of the Chester, New Jersey store, several smaller remodels of other existing stores and certain energy efficient lighting projects.
During fiscal 2016, Village used cash to fund capital expenditures of $19,971, dividends of $12,634, treasury stock purchases of $978 and invested an additional $1,314 in notes receivable from Wakefern. Capital expenditures primarily includes costs associated with the completion of the remodel and expansion of the Stirling, New Jersey store, one major remodel and several smaller remodels of other existing stores. In October 2015, Village sold the land and building of a closed store in Washington, New Jersey for $900.
During fiscal 2015, Village used cash to fund capital expenditures of $23,517, dividends of $12,577 and invested an additional $823 in notes receivable from Wakefern. Capital expenditures primarily include costs associated with the major remodel and expansion of the Stirling, New Jersey store and smaller remodels of other existing stores.
LIQUIDITY and DEBT
Working capital was $85,279, $60,538, and $41,760 at July 29, 2017, July 30, 2016 and July 25, 2015, respectively. Working capital ratios at the same dates were 1.89, 1.61, and 1.44 to one, respectively. The increase in working capital in fiscal 2017 compared to fiscal 2016 is due primarily to $22,118 in notes receivable from Wakefern that have been reclassified to current assets as they are due on August 15, 2017. The increase in working capital in fiscal 2016 compared to fiscal 2015 is due primarily to operating cash flows in excess of capital expenditures and dividends. The Company’s working capital needs are reduced, since inventories are generally sold by the time payments to Wakefern and other suppliers are due.
Village has budgeted approximately $50,000 for capital expenditures in fiscal 2018. Planned expenditures include construction of a new store in the Bronx, New York, a replacement store, two major remodels, several smaller remodels and various technology upgrade projects. The Company’s primary sources of liquidity in fiscal 2018 are expected to be cash and cash equivalents on hand at July 29, 2017 and operating cash flow generated in fiscal 2018.
At July 29, 2017, the Company had $44,680 in notes receivable due from Wakefern. Half of these notes earned interest at the prime rate plus .25% and matured on August 15, 2017 and half earn interest at the prime rate plus 1.25% and mature on February 15, 2019. The Company invested $22,000 of the proceeds received from the notes that matured on August 15, 2017 in variable rate notes receivable from Wakefern that earn interest at the prime rate plus 1.25% and mature on August 15, 2022. Wakefern has the right to prepay these notes at any time. Under certain conditions, the Company can require Wakefern to prepay the notes, although interest earned since inception would be reduced as if it was earned based on overnight money market rates as paid by Wakefern on demand deposits.
At July 29, 2017, Village had demand deposits invested at Wakefern in the amount of $60,037. These deposits earn overnight money market rates.
Village has an unsecured revolving credit agreement providing a maximum amount available for borrowing of $25,000. This loan agreement expires on December 31, 2018. The revolving credit line can be used for general corporate purposes. Indebtedness under this agreement bears interest at the prime rate, or at the Eurodollar rate, at the Company’s option, plus applicable margins based on the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio. There were no amounts outstanding at July 29, 2017 or July 30, 2016 under this facility.
The revolving loan agreement contains covenants that, among other conditions, require a maximum liabilities to tangible net worth ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a positive net income. At July 29, 2017, the Company was in compliance with all terms and covenants of the revolving loan agreement.
During fiscal 2017, Village paid cash dividends of $12,788. Dividends in fiscal 2017 consist of $1.00 per Class A common share and $.65 per Class B common share.
During fiscal 2016, Village paid cash dividends of $12,634. Dividends in fiscal 2016 consist of $1.00 per Class A common share and $.65 per Class B common share.

(1) | In addition, the Company is obligated to purchase 85% of its primary merchandise requirements from Wakefern (see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). |
| |
(2) | The above amounts for capital, financing and operating leases include interest, but do not include certain obligations under these leases for other charges. These charges consisted of the following in fiscal 2017: Real estate taxes - $5,050; common area maintenance - $2,038; insurance - $332; and contingent rentals - $668. |
| |
(3) | Pension plan funding requirements are excluded from the above table as estimated contribution amounts for future years are uncertain. Future contributions will be determined by, among other factors, actual investment performance of plan assets, interest rates required to be used to calculate pension obligations, and changes in legislation. The Company expects to contribute $3,500 in fiscal 2018 to fund Company-sponsored defined benefit pension plans compared to actual contributions of $3,000 in fiscal 2017. The table also excludes contributions under various multi-employer pension plans, which totaled $5,574 in fiscal 2017. |
OUTLOOK
This annual report contains certain forward-looking statements about Village’s future performance. These statements are based on management’s assumptions and beliefs in light of information currently available. Such statements relate to, for example: economic conditions; uninsured losses; expected pension plan contributions; projected capital expenditures; expected dividend payments; cash flow requirements; inflation expectations; and legal matters; and are indicated by words such as “will,” “expect,” “should,” “intend,” “anticipates,” “believes” and similar words or phrases. The Company cautions the reader that there is no assurance that actual results or business conditions will not differ materially from the results expressed, suggested or implied by such forward-looking statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect developments or information obtained after the date hereof.
| |
• | We expect same store sales to range from a decrease of 2.0% to flat in fiscal 2018. We expect sales trends to be negatively impacted by several local competitor store openings and continued competitive pressure on retail price inflation. |
| |
• | We have budgeted $50,000 for capital expenditures in fiscal 2018. Planned expenditures include construction of a new store in the Bronx, New York, a replacement store, two major remodels, several smaller remodels and various technology upgrade projects. |
| |
• | The Board’s current intention is to continue to pay quarterly dividends in 2018 at the most recent rate of $.25 per Class A and $.1625 per Class B share. |
| |
• | We believe cash flow from operations and other sources of liquidity will be adequate to meet anticipated requirements for working capital, capital expenditures and debt payments for the foreseeable future. |
| |
• | We expect our effective income tax rate in fiscal 2018 to be in the range of 41.0% - 42.0%. |
| |
• | We expect operating expenses will be affected by increased costs in certain areas, such as medical and other fringe benefit costs. |
| |
• | We expect approximately $100 of net periodic pension costs in fiscal 2018 related to the four Company sponsored defined benefit pension plans. The Company expects to contribute $3,500 in cash to all defined benefit pension plans in fiscal 2018. |
Various uncertainties and other factors could cause actual results to differ from the forward-looking statements contained in this report. These include:
| |
• | The supermarket business is highly competitive and characterized by narrow profit margins. Results of operations may be materially adversely impacted by competitive pricing and promotional programs, industry consolidation and competitor store openings. Village competes directly with multiple retail formats both in-store and online, including national, regional and local supermarket chains as well as warehouse clubs, supercenters, drug stores, discount general merchandise stores, fast food chains, restaurants, dollar stores and convenience stores. Some of these competitors have greater financial resources, lower merchandise acquisition costs and lower operating expenses than we do. |
| |
• | The Company’s stores are concentrated in New Jersey, with two stores in Maryland and one in northeastern Pennsylvania. We are vulnerable to economic downturns in New Jersey in addition to those that may affect the country as a whole. Economic conditions such as inflation, deflation, interest rate fluctuations, movements in energy costs, social programs, minimum wage legislation, unemployment rates and changing demographics may adversely affect our sales and profits. |
| |
• | Village purchases substantially all of its merchandise from Wakefern. In addition, Wakefern provides the Company with support services in numerous areas including advertising, liability and property insurance, supplies, certain equipment purchasing, coupon processing, certain financial accounting applications, retail technology support, and other store services. Further, Village receives patronage dividends and other product incentives from Wakefern. |
Any material change in Wakefern’s method of operation or a termination or material modification of Village’s relationship with Wakefern could have an adverse impact on the conduct of the Company’s business and could involve additional expense for Village. The failure of any Wakefern member to fulfill its obligations to Wakefern or a member’s insolvency or withdrawal from Wakefern could result in increased costs to the Company. Additionally, an adverse change in Wakefern’s results of operations could have an adverse effect on Village’s results of operations.
| |
• | Approximately 91% of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. Any work stoppages could have an adverse impact on our financial results. If we are unable to control health care and pension costs provided for in the collective bargaining agreements, we may experience increased operating costs. |
| |
• | The Company could be adversely affected if consumers lose confidence in the safety and quality of the food supply chain. The real or perceived sale of contaminated food products by us could result in a loss of consumer confidence and product liability claims, which could have a material adverse effect on our sales and operations. |
| |
• | Certain of the multi-employer plans to which we contribute are underfunded. As a result, we expect that contributions to these plans may increase. Additionally, the benefit levels and related items will be issues in the negotiation of our collective bargaining agreements. Under current law, an employer that withdraws or partially withdraws from a multi-employer pension plan may incur a withdrawal liability to the plan, which represents the portion of the plan’s underfunding that is allocable to the withdrawing employer under very complex actuarial and allocation rules. The failure of a withdrawing employer to fund these obligations can impact remaining employers. The amount of any increase or decrease in our required contributions to these multi-employer pension plans will depend upon the outcome of collective bargaining, actions taken by trustees who manage the plans, government regulations, withdrawals by other participating employers and the actual return on assets held in the plans, among other factors. |
| |
• | The Company uses a combination of insurance and self-insurance to provide for potential liability for workers’ compensation, automobile and general liability, property, director and officers’ liability, and certain employee health care benefits. Any projection of losses is subject to a high degree of variability. Changes in legal claims, trends and interpretations, variability in inflation rates, changes in the nature and method of claims settlement, benefit level changes due to changes in applicable laws, and insolvency of insurance carriers could all affect our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. |
| |
• | Our long-lived assets, primarily store property, equipment and fixtures, are subject to periodic testing for impairment. Failure of our asset groups to achieve sufficient levels of cash flow could result in impairment charges on long-lived assets. |
| |
• | Our effective tax rate may be impacted by the results of tax examinations and changes in tax laws. |
| |
• | Wakefern provides all members of the cooperative with information system support that enables us to effectively manage our business data, customer transactions, ordering, communications and other business processes. These information systems are subject to damage or interruption from power outages, computer or telecommunications failures, computer viruses and related malicious software, catastrophic weather events, or human error. Any material interruption of our or Wakefern’s information systems could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations. |
Due to the nature of our business, personal information about our customers, vendors and associates is received and stored in these information systems. In addition, confidential information is transmitted through our ShopRite from Home online business at shoprite.com and through the ShopRite app. Unauthorized parties may attempt to access information stored in or to sabotage or disrupt these systems. Wakefern and the Company maintain substantial security measures to prevent and detect unauthorized access to such information, including utilizing third-party service providers for monitoring our networks, security reviews, and other functions. It is possible that computer hackers, cyber terrorists and others may be able to defeat the security measures in place at the Company, Wakefern or those of third-party service providers.
Any breach of these security measures and loss of confidential information, which could be undetected for a period of time, could damage our reputation with customers, vendors and associates, cause Wakefern and Village to incur significant costs to protect any customers, vendors and associates whose personal data was compromised, cause us to make changes to our information systems and could result in government enforcement actions and litigation against Wakefern and/or Village from outside parties. Any such breach could have a material adverse impact on our operations, consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity if the related costs to Wakefern and Village are not covered or are in excess of carried insurance policies. In addition, a security breach could require Wakefern and Village to devote significant management resources to address problems created by the security breach and restore our reputation.
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company holds an investment in Wakefern, its principal supplier. Village purchases substantially all of its merchandise from Wakefern in accordance with the Wakefern Stockholder Agreement. As part of this agreement, Village is required to purchase certain amounts of Wakefern common stock. At July 29, 2017, the Company’s indebtedness to Wakefern for the outstanding amount of this stock subscription was $406. The maximum per store investment, which is currently $925, increased by $25 in both fiscal 2017 and 2016, resulting in additional investments of $626 and $717, respectively. Wakefern distributes as a “patronage dividend” to each member a share of its earnings in proportion to the dollar volume of purchases by the member from Wakefern during the year. Wakefern provides the Company with support services in numerous areas including advertising, supplies, liability and property insurance, technology support and other store services. Additional information is provided in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
At July 29, 2017, the Company had $44,680 in notes receivable due from Wakefern. Half of these notes earned interest at the prime rate plus .25% and matured on August 15, 2017 and half earn interest at the prime rate plus 1.25% and mature on February 15, 2019. The Company invested $22,000 of the proceeds received from the notes that matured on August 15, 2017 in variable rate notes receivable from Wakefern that earn interest at the prime rate plus 1.25% and mature on August 15, 2022. Wakefern has the right to prepay these notes at any time. Under certain conditions, the Company can require Wakefern to prepay the notes, although interest earned since inception would be reduced as if it was earned based on overnight money market rates as paid by Wakefern on demand deposits.
At July 29, 2017, Village had demand deposits invested at Wakefern in the amount of $60,037. These deposits earn overnight money market rates.
The Company subleases the Galloway and Vineland stores from Wakefern at combined current annual rents of $1,316. Both leases contain normal periodic rent increases and options to extend the lease.
The Company leases a supermarket from a realty firm 30% owned by certain officers of Village. The Company paid rent to related parties under this lease of $688, $642 and $640 in fiscal years 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. This lease expires in fiscal 2021 with options to extend at increasing annual rents.
The Company has ownership interests in three real estate partnerships. Village paid aggregate rents to two of these partnerships for leased stores of approximately $1,500, $1,400, and $1,300 in fiscal years 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES
Although the Company cannot accurately determine the precise effect of inflation or deflation on its operations, it estimates that product prices overall experienced deflation in fiscal 2017 and 2016 compared to slight inflation in 2015. The Company recorded pre-tax LIFO (benefit) expense of $(112), $(171) and $124 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Company calculates LIFO based on CPI indices published by the Department of Labor, which indicated weighted-average CPI changes of (0.3%), (0.5%), and 0.3%, in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
MARKET RISK
At July 29, 2017, the Company had demand deposits of $60,037 at Wakefern earning interest at overnight money market rates, which are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes.
At July 29, 2017, the Company had $44,680 in notes receivable due from Wakefern. Half of these notes earned interest at the prime rate plus .25% and matured on August 15, 2017 and half earn interest at the prime rate plus 1.25% and mature on February 15, 2019. The Company invested $22,000 of the proceeds received from the notes that matured on August 15, 2017 in variable rate notes receivable from Wakefern that earn interest at the prime rate plus 1.25% and mature on August 15, 2022. Wakefern has the right to prepay these notes at any time. Under certain conditions, the Company can require Wakefern to prepay the notes, although interest earned since inception would be reduced as if it was earned based on overnight money market rates as paid by Wakefern on demand deposits.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(All amounts are in thousands, except per share data).
NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of operations
Village Super Market, Inc. (the “Company” or “Village”) operates a chain of 29 ShopRite supermarkets in New Jersey, eastern Pennsylvania and Maryland. The Company is a member of Wakefern Food Corporation ("Wakefern"), the nation's largest retailer-owned food cooperative and owner of the ShopRite name. This relationship provides Village many of the economies of scale in purchasing, distribution, private label products, advanced retail technology, marketing and advertising associated with chains of greater size and geographic coverage.
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Village Super Market, Inc. and its subsidiaries, which are wholly owned. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Certain amounts have been reclassified in the fiscal 2015 consolidated statement of comprehensive income to conform to the fiscal 2017 presentation.
Fiscal year
The Company and its subsidiaries utilize a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the last Saturday in the month of July. Fiscal 2017 and 2015 contain 52 weeks. Fiscal 2016 contains 53 weeks.
Use of estimates
In conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Some of the more significant estimates are patronage dividends, pension accounting assumptions, accounting for uncertain tax positions, accounting for contingencies and the impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Industry segment
The Company consists of one operating segment, the retail sale of food and nonfood products.
Revenue recognition
Merchandise sales are recognized at the point of sale to the customer. Sales tax is excluded from revenue. Discounts provided to customers through ShopRite coupons and loyalty programs are recognized as a reduction of sales as the products are sold.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Included in cash and cash equivalents are proceeds due from credit and debit card transactions, which typically settle within five business days, of $7,641 and $7,534 at July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016, respectively. Included in cash and cash equivalents at July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016 are $60,037 and $63,609, respectively, of demand deposits invested at Wakefern at overnight money market rates.
Merchandise inventories
Approximately 65% of merchandise inventories are stated at the lower of LIFO (last-in, first-out) cost or market. If the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method had been used, inventories would have been $14,410 and $14,522 higher than reported in fiscal 2017 and 2016, respectively. All other inventories are stated at the lower of FIFO cost or market.
Vendor allowances and rebates
The Company receives vendor allowances and rebates, including the patronage dividend and amounts received as a pass through from Wakefern, related to the Company’s buying and merchandising activities. Vendor allowances and rebates are recognized as a reduction in cost of sales when the related merchandise is sold or when the required contractual terms are completed.
Property, equipment and fixtures
Property, equipment and fixtures are recorded at cost. Interest cost incurred to finance construction is capitalized as part of the cost of the asset. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.
Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of thirty years for buildings, ten years for store fixtures and equipment, and three years for vehicles. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the related lease terms or the estimated useful lives of the related assets.
When assets are sold or retired, their cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated financial statements.
Investments
The Company’s investments in its principal supplier, Wakefern, and a Wakefern affiliate, Insure-Rite, Ltd., are stated at cost (see Note 3). Village evaluates its investments in Wakefern and Insure-Rite, Ltd. for impairment through consideration of previous, current and projected levels of profit of those entities.
The Company’s 20%-50% investments in certain real estate partnerships are accounted for under the equity method. One of these partnerships is a variable interest entity which does not require consolidation as Village is not the primary beneficiary (see Note 6).
Store opening and closing costs
All store opening costs are expensed as incurred. The Company records a liability for the future minimum lease payments and related costs for closed stores from the date of closure to the end of the remaining lease term, net of estimated cost recoveries that may be achieved through subletting, discounted using a risk-adjusted interest rate.
Leases
Leases that meet certain criteria are classified as capital leases, and assets and liabilities are recorded at amounts equal to the lesser of the present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the leased properties at the inception of the respective leases. Such assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the related lease terms or the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Amounts representing interest expense relating to the lease obligations are recorded to effect constant rates of interest over the terms of the leases. Leases that do not qualify as capital leases are classified as operating leases. The Company accounts for rent holidays, escalating rent provisions, and construction allowances on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
For leases in which the Company is involved with the construction of the store, if Village concludes that it has substantially all of the risks of ownership during construction of the leased property and therefore is deemed the owner of the project for accounting purposes, an asset and related financing obligation are recorded for the costs paid by the landlord. Once construction is complete, the Company considers the requirements for sale-leaseback treatment. If the arrangement does not qualify for sale-leaseback treatment, the Company amortizes the financing obligation and depreciates the building over the lease term.
Advertising
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense was $11,824, $11,644 and $11,121 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Income taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company recognizes a tax benefit for uncertain tax positions if it is “more likely than not” that the position is sustainable, based on its technical merits. The tax benefit of a qualifying position is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon effective settlement with a taxing authority having full knowledge of all relevant information.
Fair value
Fair value is defined as the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined using assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The fair value guidance establishes a three-level hierarchy to prioritize the inputs used in measuring fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
Cash and cash equivalents, patronage dividend receivable, income taxes receivable/payable, accounts payable and accrued expenses are reflected in the consolidated financial statements at carrying value, which approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying values of the Company’s notes receivable from Wakefern approximate their fair value as interest is earned at variable market rates. As the Company’s investment in Wakefern can only be sold to Wakefern at amounts that approximate the Company’s cost, it is not practicable to estimate the fair value of such investment.
Long-lived assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets, such as property, equipment and fixtures on an individual store basis for impairment when circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. Such review analyzes the undiscounted estimated future cash flows from such assets to determine if the carrying value of such assets are recoverable from their respective cash flows. If impairment is indicated, it is measured by comparing the fair value of the long-lived assets to their carrying value.
Goodwill
Goodwill is tested at the end of each fiscal year, or more frequently if circumstances dictate, for impairment. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. Village operates as a single reporting unit for purposes of evaluating goodwill for impairment and primarily considers earnings multiples and other valuation techniques to measure fair value, in addition to the value of the Company’s stock.
Net income per share
The Company has two classes of common stock. Class A common stock is entitled to cash dividends as declared 54% greater than those paid on Class B common stock. Shares of Class B common stock are convertible on a share-for-share basis for Class A common stock at any time.
The Company utilizes the two-class method of computing and presenting net income per share. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that calculates basic and diluted net income per share for each class of common stock separately based on dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Under the two-class method, Class A common stock is assumed to receive a 54% greater participation in undistributed earnings than Class B common stock, in accordance with the classes' respective dividend rights. Unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends are treated as participating securities and therefore included in computing net income per share using the two-class method.
Diluted net income per share for Class A common stock is calculated utilizing the if-converted method, which assumes the conversion of all shares of Class B common stock to Class A common stock on a share-for-share basis, as this method is more dilutive than the two-class method. Diluted net income per share for Class B common stock does not assume conversion of Class B common stock to shares of Class A common stock.
The tables below reconcile the numerators and denominators of basic and diluted net income per share for all periods presented.

Outstanding stock options to purchase Class A shares of 376, 226 and 224 were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share at July 29, 2017, July 30, 2016 and July 25, 2015, respectively, as a result of their anti-dilutive effect. In addition, 361, 250 and 271 non-vested restricted Class A shares, which are considered participating securities, and their allocated net income were excluded from the diluted net income per share calculation at July 29, 2017, July 30, 2016 and July 25, 2015, respectively, due to their anti-dilutive effect.
Share-based compensation
All share-based payments to employees are recognized in the financial statements as compensation costs based on the fair market value on the date of the grant.
Benefit plans
The Company recognizes the funded status of its Company sponsored retirement plans on the consolidated balance sheet. Actuarial gains or losses, curtailments, prior service costs or credits, and transition obligations not previously recognized are recorded as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. The Company uses July 31 as the measurement date for these plans.
The Company also contributes to several multi-employer pension plans under the terms of collective bargaining agreements that cover certain union-represented employees. Pension expense for these plans is recognized as contributions are made.
Recently issued accounting standards
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which provides guidance for revenue recognition. The standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning
after December 15, 2017. The Company expects to adopt the new standard in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending July 27, 2019. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of ASU No. 2014-09 on its financial statements. The Company does not anticipate it will have a material impact on its recognition of revenue at the point of sale, and is continuing to identify and assess transactions that may be affected by the new standard.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases." This guidance requires lessees to recognize lease liabilities and a right-of-use asset for all leases with terms of more than 12 months on the balance sheet. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018, with earlier adoption permitted. The Company expects to adopt the new standard in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending July 25, 2020. ASU 2016-02 requires a modified retrospective approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after the date of initial adoption. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 will result in a significant increase to the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets for lease liabilities and right-of-use assets, and the Company is currently evaluating the other effects of adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, "Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting." The guidance changes several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including accounting for income taxes, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, with earlier adoption permitted. The Company will adopt the new standard in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending July 28, 2018. The Company does not anticipate it will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

NOTE 3 — RELATED PARTY INFORMATION - WAKEFERN
The Company’s ownership interest in its principal supplier, Wakefern, which is operated on a cooperative basis for its stockholder members, is 12.9% of the outstanding shares of Wakefern at July 29, 2017. The investment is stated at cost and is pledged as collateral for any obligations to Wakefern. In addition, all obligations to Wakefern are personally guaranteed by certain shareholders of Village.
The Company is obligated to purchase 85% of its primary merchandise requirements from Wakefern until ten years from the date that stockholders representing 75% of Wakefern sales notify Wakefern that those stockholders request that the Wakefern Stockholder Agreement be terminated. If this purchase obligation is not met, Village is required to pay Wakefern’s profit contribution shortfall attributable to this failure. Similar payments are due if Wakefern loses volume by reason of the sale of Company stores or a merger with another entity. Village fulfilled the above obligation in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015. The Company also has an investment of approximately 8.0% in Insure-Rite, Ltd., a Wakefern affiliated company, which provides Village with liability and property insurance coverage.
Wakefern has increased from time to time the required investment in its common stock for each supermarket owned by a member, with the exact amount per store computed based on the amount of each store’s purchases from Wakefern. At July 29, 2017, the Company’s indebtedness to Wakefern for the outstanding amount of these stock subscriptions was $406. Installment payments are due as follows: 2017 -$292; 2018 - $114 and none thereafter. The maximum per store investment, which is currently $925, increased by $25 in both fiscal 2017 and 2016, resulting in additional investments of $626 and $717, respectively. Village receives additional shares of common stock to the extent paid for at the end of each fiscal year (which ends on or about September 30) of Wakefern calculated at the then book value per share. The payments, together with any stock issued thereunder, at the option of Wakefern, may be null and void and all payments on this subscription shall become the property of Wakefern in the event the Company does not complete the payment of this subscription in a timely manner.
Village purchases substantially all of its merchandise from Wakefern. As a stockholder of Wakefern, Village earns a share of Wakefern’s earnings, which are distributed as a “patronage dividend.” This dividend is based on a distribution of substantially all of Wakefern’s operating profits for its fiscal year in proportion to the dollar volume of purchases by each member from Wakefern during that fiscal year. Patronage dividends are recorded as a reduction of cost of sales as merchandise is sold. Village accrues estimated patronage dividends due from Wakefern quarterly based on an estimate of the annual Wakefern patronage dividend and an estimate of Village’s share of this annual dividend based on Village’s estimated proportional share of the dollar volume of business transacted with Wakefern that year. Patronage dividends and other vendor allowances and rebates amounted to $30,048, $30,559 and $27,557 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Wakefern provides the Company with support services in numerous areas including advertising, liability and property insurance, supplies, certain equipment purchasing, coupon processing, certain financial accounting applications, retail technology support, and other store services. Village incurred charges of $32,135, $33,526 and $33,306 from Wakefern in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, for these services, which are reflected in operating and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations. Additionally, the Company has certain related party leases (see Note 6) with Wakefern.
At July 29, 2017, the Company had $44,680 in notes receivable due from Wakefern. Half of these notes earned interest at the prime rate plus .25% and matured on August 15, 2017 and half earn interest at the prime rate plus 1.25% and mature on February 15, 2019. The Company invested $22,000 of the proceeds received from the notes that matured on August 15, 2017 in variable rate notes receivable from Wakefern that earn interest at the prime rate plus 1.25% and mature on August 15, 2022. Wakefern has the right to prepay these notes at any time. Under certain conditions, the Company can require Wakefern to prepay the notes, although interest earned since inception would be reduced as if it was earned based on overnight money market rates as paid by Wakefern on demand deposits.
At July 29, 2017, the Company had demand deposits invested at Wakefern in the amount of $60,037. These deposits earn overnight money market rates.
Interest income earned on investments with Wakefern was $2,841, $2,506 and $2,399 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
NOTE 4 — DEBT
Village has an unsecured revolving credit agreement providing a maximum amount available for borrowing of $25,000. This loan agreement expires on December 31, 2018. The revolving credit line can be used for general corporate purposes. Indebtedness under this agreement bears interest at the prime rate, or at the Eurodollar rate, at the Company’s option, plus applicable margins based on the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio. There were no amounts outstanding at July 29, 2017 or July 30, 2016 under this facility.
The revolving loan agreement provides for up to $3,000 of letters of credit ($129 outstanding at July 29, 2017), which secure obligations for construction performance guarantees to municipalities.
The revolving loan agreement contains covenants that, among other conditions, require a maximum liabilities to tangible net worth ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a positive net income. At July 29, 2017, the Company was in compliance with all covenants of the revolving loan agreement.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

| 2017 | | 2016 |
Other assets | 611 |
| | 1,576 |
|
Other liabilities | (6,756 | ) | | (1,393 | ) |
A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In management’s opinion, in view of the Company’s previous, current and projected taxable income and reversal of deferred tax liabilities, such tax assets will more likely than not be fully realized. Accordingly, no valuation allowance was deemed to be required at July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016.
The effective income tax rate differs from the statutory federal income tax rate as follows:
|
| | | | | | | | |
| 2017 | | 2016 | | 2015 |
Statutory federal income tax rate | 35.0 | % | | 35.0 | % | | 35.0 | % |
State income taxes, net of federal tax benefit | 6.2 | % | | 5.9 | % | | 6.1 | % |
Unrecognized tax benefits, interest and penalties on prior year tax positions | — | % | | — | % | | (17.6 | )% |
Current year interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits | 0.1 | % | | 0.2 | % | | 2.0 | % |

In prior years, the state of New Jersey issued two separate tax assessments related to nexus beginning in fiscal 2000 and the deductibility of certain payments between subsidiaries beginning in fiscal 2002. Village contested both of these assessments through the state’s conference and appeals process and was subsequently denied. The Company then filed two complaints in Tax Court against the New Jersey Division of Taxation (the "Division") contesting these assessments and a trial limited to the nexus dispute was conducted in June 2013. On October 23, 2013, the Tax Court issued their opinion on the matter in favor of the Division. As a result, the Company recorded a $10,052 charge, net of federal benefit, to income tax expense in the fiscal quarter ended October 26, 2013, to increase unrecognized tax benefits and related interest and penalties for tax positions taken in prior years.
On February 27, 2015, the Company reached an agreement with the Division whereby the Company paid $33,000 in March 2015 to settle the disputes with the Division for fiscal years 2000 through 2014. Net of federal benefit, the total cash outflow as a result of the settlement was approximately $21,000. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company withdrew its appeal of the Tax Court opinion on the nexus dispute. In addition, the case pending on the deductibility of certain payments between subsidiaries was dismissed and the Division withdrew the related assessments. The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $7,293, net of federal taxes, in the fiscal quarter ending April 25, 2015 to reverse remaining unrecognized tax benefits and related interest and penalties in excess of the settlement.
The Division is currently auditing tax years 2011 through 2015 for all applicable entities and tax years 2000 through 2014 related to the February 2015 settlement agreement. The Company is open to examination by the remaining relevant tax authorities with varying statutes of limitations, generally ranging from three to four years.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:
|
| | | | | | | |
| 2017 | | 2016 |
Balance at beginning of year | $ | 631 |
| | $ | 514 |
|
Additions based on tax positions related to prior periods | 17 |

|
Additions based on tax positions related to the current year | — |
| | 117 |
|
| | | |
Balance at end of year | $ | 648 |
| | $ | 631 |
|
Unrecognized tax benefits at July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016 include tax positions of $585 and $541 (net of federal benefit), respectively, that would reduce the Company’s effective income tax rate, if recognized in future periods.
Although the outcome and timing are uncertain, the Company anticipates that the balance of gross unrecognized tax benefits will reverse during the next twelve months.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties on income taxes in income tax expense. The Company recognized expense (benefit) of $50, $39 and $(9,811) in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, related to interest and penalties on income taxes. The amount of accrued interest and penalties included in the consolidated balance sheet was $242 and $192 at July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016, respectively.
NOTE 6 — LEASES
Description of leasing arrangements
The Company leased 23 stores at July 29, 2017, including five that are capitalized for financial reporting purposes. The majority of initial lease terms range from 20 to 30 years.
Most of the Company’s leases contain renewal options at increased rents of five years each. These options enable Village to retain the use of facilities in desirable operating areas. Management expects that in the normal course of business, most leases will be renewed or replaced by other leases. The Company is obligated under all leases to pay for real estate taxes, utilities and liability insurance, and under certain leases to pay additional amounts based on maintenance and a percentage of sales in excess of stipulated amounts.
Future minimum lease payments by year and in the aggregate for all non-cancelable leases with initial terms of one year or more consist of the following at July 29, 2017:
|

On November 6, 2013, the Company closed the Morris Plains, New Jersey store and opened a 77,000 sq. ft. replacement store in Hanover Township, New Jersey. The Company recorded a $3,481 charge to Operating and administrative expense in fiscal 2014 for the remaining lease obligations, net of estimated sublease rentals, on the Morris Plains store. The Company paid $788, $918 and $982 of these costs in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, with no remaining liability as of July 29, 2017.
On April 30, 2014, Village opened a 59,000 sq. ft. store in Union, New Jersey and closed our existing 40,000 sq. ft. store. The Company recorded a $929 charge to Operating and administrative expense in fiscal 2014 for the remaining lease obligations, net of estimated sublease rentals, on the old Union store. The Company paid $0, $266 and $531 of these costs in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, with no remaining liability as of July 29, 2017.
Related party leases
The Company leases a supermarket from a realty firm 30% owned by certain officers of Village. The Company paid rent to related parties under this lease of $688, $642 and $640 in fiscal years 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. This lease expires in fiscal 2021 with options to extend at increasing annual rent.
The Company has ownership interests in three real estate partnerships. Village paid aggregate rents to two of these partnerships for leased stores of $1,500, $1,400 and $1,300 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
One of these partnerships is a variable interest entity, which is not consolidated as Village is not the primary beneficiary. This partnership owns one property, a stand-alone supermarket leased to the Company since 1974. Village is a general partner entitled to 33% of the partnership's profits and losses.
The Company subleases the Galloway and Vineland stores from Wakefern under sublease agreements which provided for combined annual rents of $1,316, $1,316 and $1,296 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Both leases contain normal periodic rent increases and options to extend the lease.
NOTE 7 — SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
The Company has two classes of common stock. Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share and to cash dividends as declared 54% greater than those paid on Class B common stock. Class B common stock is entitled to 10 votes per share. Class A and Class B common stock share equally on a per share basis in any distributions in liquidation. Shares of Class B common stock are convertible on a share-for-share basis for Class A common stock at any time. Class B common stock is not transferable except to another holder of Class B common stock or by will or under the laws of intestacy or pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company approving the transfer. As a result of this voting structure, the holders of the Class B common stock control greater than 50% of the total voting power of the shareholders of the Company and control the election of the Board of Directors.
The Company has authorized 10,000 shares of preferred stock. No shares have been issued. The Board of Directors is authorized to designate series, preferences, powers and participations of any preferred stock issued.
During fiscal 2015 the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $5,000 of its Class A Common Stock. Repurchases may be made from time to time through a variety of methods, including open market purchases and other negotiated transactions, including through plans designed to comply with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company made open market purchases totaling $1,859 and $978 under this repurchase program in fiscal 2017 and 2016, respectively, and an additional $2,222 in shares of Class A Common Stock were surrendered in satisfaction of withholding taxes in connection with the vesting of restricted shares in Fiscal 2017.
Village has three share-based compensation plans, which are described below. The compensation cost charged against income for these plans was $3,134, $3,195 and $3,169 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Total income tax benefit recognized in the consolidated statements of operations for share-based compensation arrangements was $802, $1,131 and $1,134 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
The Village Super Market, Inc. 2004 Stock Plan (the “2004 Plan”) provides for awards of incentive and nonqualified stock options and restricted stock. There are 1,200 shares of Class A common stock authorized for issuance to employees and directors under the 2004 Plan. Terms and conditions of awards are determined by the Board of Directors. Option awards are primarily granted at the fair value of the Company’s stock at the date of grant, cliff vest three years from the grant date and are exercisable up to ten years from the date of grant. Restricted stock awards primarily cliff vest three years from the grant date. There are no shares remaining for future grants under the 2004 Plan.
On December 17, 2010, the shareholders of the Company approved the Village Super Market, Inc. 2010 Stock Plan (the “2010 Plan”) under which awards of incentive and non-qualified stock options and restricted stock may be made. There are 1,200 shares of Class A common stock authorized for issuance to employees and directors under the 2010 Plan. Terms and conditions of awards are determined by the Board of Directors. Option awards granted to date were granted at the fair value of the Company's stock on the date of grant, primarily cliff vest three years from the grant date and are exercisable up to ten years from the grant date. Restricted stock awards primarily cliff vest three years from the date of grant. There are 45 shares remaining for future grants under the 2010 Plan.
On December 16, 2016, the shareholders of the Company approved the Village Super Market, Inc. 2016 Stock Plan (the “2016 Plan”) under which awards of incentive and non-qualified stock options and restricted stock may be made.

As of July 29, 2017, the weighted-average remaining contractual term of options outstanding and options exercisable was 4.8 years and 4.7 years, respectively. As of July 29, 2017, the aggregate intrinsic value was $2 for both options outstanding and options exercisable. The weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted was $4.79 and $4.32 per share in fiscal 2016 and 2015, respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised was $204, $70 and $1,090 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model using the weighted-average assumptions in the following table. The Company uses historical data for similar groups of employees in order to estimate the expected life of options granted. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock for a period of years corresponding to the expected life of the option. The risk free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the time of grant for securities with a maturity period similar to the expected life of the option.

NOTE 8 — PENSION PLANS
Company-Sponsored Pension Plans
The Company sponsors four defined benefit pension plans. Two are tax-qualified plans covering members of unions. Benefits under these two plans are based on a fixed amount for each year of service. One is a tax-qualified plan covering nonunion associates. Benefits under this plan are based upon percentages of annual compensation. Funding for these plans is based on an analysis of the specific requirements and an evaluation of the assets and liabilities of each plan. The fourth plan is an unfunded, nonqualified plan providing supplemental pension benefits to certain executives.
On November 29, 2016, the Company amended the Village Super Market Local 72 Retail Clerks Employees’ Retirement Plan, which covers union employees in the Stroudsburg store, to freeze all benefits effective January 31, 2017. As a result of this amendment, the Company recognized a pre-tax remeasurement gain totaling $629 in accumulated other comprehensive loss during fiscal 2017. The remeasurement had no impact on the consolidated statements of operations.
On February 15, 2016, the Company amended the Village Super Market Employees Retirement Plan, which covers nonunion employees and pharmacists, to freeze all benefits effective March 31, 2016. As a result of this amendment, the Company recognized a pre-tax curtailment gain totaling $17,904 in accumulated other comprehensive loss during fiscal 2016.

The accumulated benefit obligations of the four plans were $71,701 and $80,021 at July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016, respectively. The following information is presented for those plans with an accumulated benefit obligation in excess of plan assets:

Weighted average assumptions used to determine benefit obligations and net periodic pension cost for the Company’s defined benefit plans were as follows:
|
| | | | | | | | |
| 2017 | | 2016 | | 2015 |
Assumed discount rate — net periodic pension cost | 3.08 | % | | 4.02 | % | | 3.95 | % |
Assumed discount rate — benefit obligation | 3.60 | % | | 3.08 | % | | 4.02 | % |
Assumed rate of increase in compensation levels | 4 - 4.5 | % | | 4 - 4.5 | % | | 4 - 4.5 | % |
Expected rate of return on plan assets | 7.50 | % | | 7.50 | % | | 7.50 | % |
Investments in the pension trusts are overseen by the trustees of the plans, who are officers of Village. The Company’s overall investment strategy is to maintain a broadly diversified portfolio of stocks, bonds and money market instruments that, along with periodic plan contributions, provide the necessary funds for ongoing benefit obligations. Expected rates of return on plan assets are developed by determining projected stock and bond returns and then applying these returns to the target asset allocations of the trusts, resulting in a weighted-average rate of return on plan assets. Equity returns were based primarily on historical returns of the S&P 500 Index. Fixed-income projected returns were based primarily on historical returns for the broad U.S. bond market. The target allocations for plan assets are 50-70% equity securities, 25-40% fixed income securities and 0-10% cash. Asset allocations are reviewed periodically and appropriate rebalancing is performed.
Equity securities include investments in large-cap, small-cap and mid-cap companies located both in and outside the United States. Fixed income securities include U.S. treasuries, mortgage-backed securities and corporate bonds of companies from diversified industries. Investments in securities are made both directly and through mutual funds. In addition, one plan held Class A common stock of Village in the amount of $636 and $770 at July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016, respectively.
Risk management is accomplished through diversification across asset classes and fund strategies, multiple investment portfolios and investment guidelines. The plans do not allow for investments in derivative instruments.

The Company expects to contribute $3,500 in cash to all defined benefit pension plans in fiscal 2018.
Multi-Employer Plans
The Company contributes to three multi-employer pension plans under collective bargaining agreements covering union-represented employees. These plans provide benefits to participants that are generally based on a fixed amount for each year of service. Based on the most recent information available, certain of these multi-employer plans are underfunded. The amount of any increase or decrease in Village’s required contributions to these multi-employer pension plans will depend upon the outcome of collective bargaining, actions taken by trustees who manage the plans, government regulations and the actual return on assets held in the plans, among other factors.
The risks of participating in multi-employer pension plans are different from the risks of participating in single-employer pension plans in the following respects:
| |
• | Assets contributed to a multi-employer plan by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers. |
| |
• | If a participating employer stops contributing to the plan, the unfunded obligations of the plan allocable to such withdrawing employer may be borne by the remaining participating employers. |
| |
• | If the Company stops participating in some of its multi-employer pension plans, the Company may be required to pay those plans an amount based on its allocable share of the underfunded status of the plan, referred to as a withdrawal liability. |
The Company’s participation in these plans is outlined in the following tables. The “EIN / Pension Plan Number” column provides the Employer Identification Number (“EIN”) and the three-digit pension plan number. The most recent “Pension Protection Act Zone Status” available in 2016 and 2015 is for the plan’s year-end at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, unless otherwise noted. Among other factors, generally, plans in the red zone are less than 65 percent funded, plans in the yellow zone are between 65 and 80 percent funded and plans in the green zone are at least 80 percent funded. The “FIP/RP Status Pending / Implemented” column indicates plans for which a funding improvement plan (“FIP”) or a rehabilitation plan (“RP”) is either pending or has been implemented.

Other Multi-Employer Benefit Plans
The Company also contributes to various other multi-employer benefit plans that provide health and welfare benefits to active and retired participants. Total contributions made by the Company to these other multi-employer benefit plans were approximately $28,137, $27,965 and $26,932 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Defined Contribution Plans
The Company sponsors a 401(k) savings plan for certain eligible associates. Company contributions under that plan, which are based on specified percentages of associate contributions, were $1,132, $641 and $392 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Company also contributes to union sponsored defined contribution plans for certain eligible associates. Company contributions under these plans were $783, $836 and $817 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
NOTE 9 — COMMITMENTS and CONTINGENCIES
Superstorm Sandy devastated our area on October 29, 2012 and resulted in the closure of almost all of our stores for periods of time ranging from a few hours to eight days. Village disposed of substantial amounts of perishable product and also incurred repair, labor and other costs as a result of the storm. The Company has property, casualty and business interruption insurance, subject to deductibles and coverage limits. During fiscal 2013, Wakefern began the process of working with our insurers to recover the damages and Village recorded estimated insurance recoveries of $4,913. In October 2013, Wakefern, as the policy holder, filed suit against the carrier seeking payment of the remaining claims due for all Wakefern members. The suit was the result of different interpretations of policy terms, including whether the policy's named storm deductible applied. On October 29, 2014, the Court issued their opinion on the matter in favor of the carrier. Based on this decision and its related impact, the Company concluded that recovery of further proceeds was not probable and recorded a $2,270 charge to operating and administrative expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 to write-off the remaining insurance receivable. Wakefern continues to pursue further recovery of uncollected amounts from the carrier and other sources. As a result, the Company received an additional $940 in insurance proceeds in February 2016 which was recognized as a reduction in Operating and administrative expense in fiscal 2016. Any further proceeds recovered will be recognized as they are received. As of July 29, 2017, Village has collected $3,583.
Approximately 91% of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. Contracts with the Company’s seven unions expire between July 2017 and July 2021. Approximately 6% of our associates are represented by unions whose contracts have already expired or expire within one year. Any work stoppages could have an adverse impact on our financial results.
The Company is involved in other litigation incidental to the normal course of business. Company management is of the opinion that the ultimate resolution of these legal proceedings should not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity of the Company.
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Village Super Market, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Village Super Market, Inc. and subsidiaries as of July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years ended July 29, 2017, July 30, 2016 and July 25, 2015. We also have audited Village Super Market, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of July 29, 2017, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Village Super Market, Inc.’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Village Super Market, Inc. and subsidiaries as of July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended July 29, 2017, July 30, 2016 and July 25, 2015, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, Village Super Market, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of July 29, 2017, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

Commitment under the Revolving Loan once reduced by the Borrower hereunder.
2.3 Principal Payment. The Borrower shall not be required to make principal
payments prior to the Maturity Date except as required under Section 2.2 or if
there shall be an Event of Default. On the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall
repay the entire principal balance of the Revolving Loan outstanding as of the
Maturity Date together with all accrued interest and other sums then outstanding
under the Revolving Loan, which shall all then be due and payable in full.
2.4 Interest Payment. Accrued interest on the daily principal balance is due
and payable on each Interest Payment Date. Any interest not paid when due, in
the Lender's discretion, and without limitation of any other right or remedy in
any Loan Document (including the right to charge a late fee or to raise the
interest rate after an Event of Default) may be added to the principal amount
outstanding under the Revolving Loan and accrue interest at the Prime Rate and
be payable upon demand.
2.5 Clean-up of Principal Balance. The Borrower shall be required to repay
the aggregate principal balance of the Revolving Loan to a maximum of One
Hundred and 00/100 ($100.00) Dollars for thirty (30) consecutive days during
each period of twelve (12) months in which the Revolving Loan is available
hereunder.
2.7 Method of Borrowing.
(A) Notice of Borrowing. To borrow or to select a type of loan under the
Revolving Loan, the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender (or transmit by
telecopier with the original to be mailed or delivered to the Lender on the same
day) by 11:00 a.m. of any Banking Day an irrevocable Notice of Borrowing signed
by an authorized signer of the Borrower as designated in the borrowing
resolutions substantially in the form of the annexed Exhibit D specifying each
of the following:
(i) the proposed borrowing date for a Revolving Loan which, (a) in the case
of a Prime Rate Loan may be the same Banking Day or, (b) in the case of
a LIBOR Loan shall be a LIBOR Banking Day at least two (2) Banking Days
thereafter;
(ii) the type of loan requested;
(iii) the amount of the proposed borrowing which, in the case of a Prime Rate
Loan shall be at least $500,000 and in multiples of $50,000 and in the case of
a LIBOR Loan shall be in multiples of $1,000,000;
(iv) in the case of a LIBOR Loan, the duration of the Interest Period for each
borrowing (which Interest Period: (a) shall be either one (1) month, two (2)
months, or (3) three months; and (b) shall not extend beyond the Maturity Date)
and;
(v) instructions to the Lender as to the deposit or transmittal of the borrowed
funds.
Amounts drawn on the Revolving Loan on the effective date of the Loan Agreement
shall be deemed to be LIBOR Loans.
(B) Determination of Rate. For any LIBOR Loan, two (2) LIBOR Banking Days
before the first day of the applicable Interest Period, the Lender shall
determine the applicable LIBOR Rate and advise Borrower of that rate by
telephone or telecopier. If by 11:30 a.m. of the day in which the Lender quotes
any rate the Borrower shall not have advised the Lender (by telephone with
immediate telecopier confirmation) whether Borrower wishes to receive the quoted
rate, then the Lender may, in its discretion, conclude that the Borrower has
rejected the quoted rate and chosen instead to receive a Prime Rate Loan in an
amount equal to the Loan requested in the applicable Notice of Borrowing. The
Lender's determination of any rate shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
(C) Deduction for Amounts Due. If any Revolving Loan is to be made on a day on
which Borrower is to repay any outstanding Loan, the Lender is authorized to
apply proceeds from the new Loan to make that payment and advance to Borrower
only the net amount of the new Loan after deducting the amount of the existing
Loan payment including principal and accrued interest that had been due.
2.8 Loan Selection.
(A) Revolving Loan. During the term of the Revolving Loan prior to 12:00 noon of
the Banking Day prior to the Maturity Date, by delivering a Notice of Borrowing
pursuant to Section 2.7, the Borrower may: (1) convert any Prime Rate Loan to a
LIBOR Loan by giving the Lender the Notice of Borrowing two (2) LIBOR Banking
Days before the first day of the applicable Interest Period; (2) at the end of
any Interest Period, convert any LIBOR Loan to a Prime Rate Loan; and (3) at the
end of any Interest Period, convert any LIBOR Loan to a LIBOR Loan with a
different Interest Period. The Borrower must select either a LIBOR Rate or the
Prime Rate for the entire amount of any advance, but may simultaneously have
outstanding various types of Revolving Loans. The Borrower shall have no right
to select an Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan that would go beyond the Maturity
Date.
(B) Lender's Election of Rate. If the Lender does not receive a timely Notice
of Borrowing prior to the expiration of any Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan,
the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to pay in full that LIBOR Loan at
the end of the Interest Period out of the proceeds of a new Prime Rate Loan.
That new Prime Rate Loan will be in a principal amount equal to the principal
amount and, if the Lender determines in its absolute discretion, accrued
interest of the LIBOR Loan that is being repaid and shall be deemed made
automatically and contemporaneously with the payment of that LIBOR Loan.
2.9 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of any advances under the Revolving Loan
will be used by the Borrower to fund general working capital and corporate
purposes of the Companies or for any other purpose (but not new store
construction).
2.10 Notes. The Revolving Loan shall be evidenced by the Revolving Note, a
copy of which is annexed as Exhibit B.
2.11 Standby Letters of Credit. The Lender, in its discretion, may issue or
process an application for a letter of credit or any other credit accommodation
on behalf of the Borrower. The letters of credit issued hereunder may be used to
secure obligations to the Borrower's insurers under the Borrower's worker's
compensation program or any other lawful purpose. While there is no commitment
to issue any letters of credit hereunder, the aggregate principal amount of
letters of credit which may be issued by the Lender and outstanding hereunder
shall not exceed Three Million and 00/100 ($3,000,000) Dollars. If any letters
of credit are issued, the following terms shall also apply:
(A) Any letters of credit issued by the Lender will be in the Lender's customary
form (individually a "Letter of Credit" and, collectively, the "Letters of
Credit") for the account of the Borrower. Letters of Credit may be issued at any
time and from time to time on or after the date hereof through the date which is
sixty (60) days before the Maturity Date, provided that the existing letter of
credit no. 516165 issued by New Jersey National Bank (predecessor to CoreStates,
in turn, the predecessor to the Lender) on the account of Borrower an original
face amount of $1,705,000 (with $1,000,000 currently available to be drawn)
shall be deemed to be a Letter of Credit under this Loan Agreement. The
aggregate amount outstanding at any time of all Letters of Credit shall not
exceed $3,000,000. The term of any Letter of Credit shall not exceed one year,
and each such Letter of Credit shall have an expiry which is not later than the
Maturity Date; provided, however, that any outstanding Letter of Credit with
provision for automatic renewal will continue to be renewed up to the Banking
Day prior to the Maturity Date as set forth under the terms of such Letter of
Credit and payment of fees, repayment terms and other provisions of such Letter
of Credit will continue to be governed by this Section 2.12 except the last
sentence of clause (G) below. No outstanding Letter of Credit, and no Letter of
Credit issued hereunder, shall be automatically renewed for any period beyond
five (5) years from the date of initial issuance.
(B) The Borrower shall notify the Lender at least ten (10) Banking Days in
advance by written notice of its request that the Lender issue a Letter of
Credit. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and confirmed immediately by
delivery to the Lender of a Request for Letter of Credit in the Lender's
customary form, but without any accompanying terms and conditions which are
inconsistent with this Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents.
(C) Each request for a Letter of Credit shall constitute a representation and
warranty by the Borrower that, except as contemplated by the Loan Documents: (i)
the representations and warranties set forth in Section V hereof remain accurate
as of the date of such request, and (ii) no Default or Event of Default exists
under this Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document.
(D) Each Letter of Credit outstanding shall reduce the amount available under
the Lender's Commitment in an amount equal to such Letter of Credit, and for the
purposes of Section 2.1 each such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a use
of the Lender's Commitment.
(E) Each payment by the Lender under a Letter of Credit shall be treated as a
loan (a "Letter of Credit Loan") and shall be payable one (1) Banking Day after
notice of such payment is given to Borrower, or, if earlier, on the Maturity
Date. Each Letter of Credit Loan outstanding shall reduce the amount available
under the Lender's Commitment as under paragraph (D) above.
(F) Each Letter of Credit Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal
amount thereof, for each day from the date such Letter of Credit Loan is made
until the date payment is made in full, at a rate per annum equal to the Prime
Rate in effect from time to time.
(G) The obligation to repay each Letter of Credit Loan in full, together with
accrued interest thereon in accordance with this Loan Agreement, shall be
absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, under all circumstances whatsoever, and
(without limiting the generality of the foregoing) shall not be affected by:
(i) the use which may be made of the Letter of Credit Loan or any acts or
omissions of the drawer in connection therewith;
(ii) the validity or genuineness of documents presented in connection with a
drawing, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should in fact
prove to be in any or all respects invalid, fraudulent or forged, provided that
such documents appear on their face to comply with the terms of the Letter of
Credit;
(iii) any irregularity in the transaction with respect to which the Letter of
Credit is issued; or
(iv) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which the
Borrower might have against the Lender, or any other Person, whether in
connection with the Letter of Credit, the transaction contemplated by the Letter
of Credit, or any unrelated transaction.
If all conditions to borrowing Revolving Loans are satisfied, the Borrower shall
have the right to repay any Letter of Credit Loan with the proceeds of Revolving
Loans made on or prior to the maturity of the Letter of Credit Loan.
(H) The Borrower shall pay to the Lender a fee (the "Letter of Credit Fee") on
the undrawn portion of all Letters of Credit at a rate per annum equal to one
and one-quarter percent (1-1/4%) which shall be payable quarterly in advance on
the first Banking Day of each January, April, July and October to occur after
the date hereof. The foregoing shall modify the fees payable in connection with
all outstanding Letters of Credit.
(I) The Borrower shall pay to the Lender with respect to each Letter of Credit
issued, the usual and customary administrative fees and other charges of the
Lender in connection with any Letter of Credit, including without limitation,
all charges for the issuance of Letters of Credit, the negotiation of any draft
paid pursuant to any Letter of Credit and any amendments or supplements thereto.
(J) At Closing, the Borrower shall supply to the Lender a list of all
outstanding Letters of Credit issued by any financial institution.
2.12 Termination. The provisions of this Loan Agreement that provide for the
making of advances under the Revolving Loan shall expire automatically on 12:00
noon on the Banking Day before the Maturity Date and may be terminated by the
Lender at any time after the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default
(unless subsequently cured to the satisfaction of the Lender prior to
termination) and shall be terminated automatically upon the occurrence of any
Event of Default described in Section 8.12.
2.13 Interest Rates For Revolving Loan. The Borrower agrees to pay interest on
the unpaid portion of Revolving Loans as follows:
(A) for Prime Rate Loans at a fluctuating rate equal to the Prime Rate in effect
from time to time; and
(B) for each LIBOR Loan at a fixed rate equal to the sum of the LIBOR Rate for
that Loan plus the Applicable Margin.
2.14 Calculation of Interest. Interest shall be calculated on a 360-day year
based on the number of days elapsed. After the last day of each Interest Period
for any Loan the Lender shall endeavor to mail to the Borrower a statement of
that Loan as of the last day of the Interest Period. That statement will be
deemed to be correct unless the Borrower has delivered to the Lender specific
written objections within thirty (30) days of the Borrower's receipt.
2.15 Increased Cost. If at any time or from time to time any change occurring
after the date hereof in any requirement of law, regulation, order, decree,
treaty or directive or the interpretation or application thereof by governmental
authority or compliance by the Lender with any request or directive (whether or
not having the force of law) occurring after the date hereof from any central
bank or monetary authority or other Governmental authority:
(A) does or shall subject the Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with
respect to this Loan Agreement or any LIBOR Loan, or change the basis of
taxation of payments to the Lender of principal, interest or others amount
payable hereunder (except for changes in the rate or method of tax on the
overall net income of the Lender in any jurisdiction); or
(B) does or shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special
deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, or
deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or
other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of
the Lender which are not otherwise included in the determination of the LIBOR
Rate hereunder; or
(C) does or shall impose on the Lender any other condition regarding this Loan
Agreement or the Loans; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase
the cost to the Lender of making, renewing, converting or maintaining advances
or extensions of credit as LIBOR Loans, or to reduce any amount receivable in
respect of such LIBOR Loans, then, in any such case, the Lender will promptly
notify the Borrower of the change and of the estimated amount of such cost
increase or reduction in amount and Borrower shall promptly pay to the Lender
upon their demand, such additional amount which will compensate the Lender for
such additional cost or reduced amount receivable as the Lender deems to be
material as determined by the Lender. If the Borrower becomes so obligated, at
Borrower's option and upon two (2) LIBOR Banking Days, prior notice by telephone
or telegraph (to be confirmed promptly in writing) given by the Borrower to the
Lender, the Borrower may (in lieu of paying such additional amounts as
aforesaid): (i) terminate the obligation of the Lender to make or maintain LIBOR
Loans and/or (ii) convert all LIBOR Loans then outstanding to any other type of
Revolving Loan, as the case may be, by prepayment and reborrowing in the manner
specified in this Loan Agreement. If any such conversion of a LIBOR Loan is made
on a day which is not the last day of an applicable Interest Period, the
Borrower shall pay to the Lender upon request such amount or amounts as may be
necessary to compensate the Lender for any loss or expense sustained or incurred
by the Lender in respect of the prepayment of such LIBOR Loan as a result of
such conversion. If the Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts
pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly notify Borrower thereof. A
certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing
submitted by an officer of the Lender to the Borrower shall be conclusive in the
absence of manifest error.
2.16 [INTENTIONALLY DELETED].
2.16 Basis for Determining InterBank Rate Inadequate or Unfair. If with respect
to any Interest Period:
(A) the Lender determines that deposits in dollars in the applicable amounts are
not being offered to the Lender in the London market for such Interest Period,
or
(B) the Lender determines that the applicable LIBOR Rate will not adequately and
fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of maintaining or funding a LIBOR Loan for
such Interest Period, then, the Lender shall promptly notify Borrower and, until
the Lender determines that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no
longer exist, the Lender's obligation to make future LIBOR Loans shall be
suspended.
Funding Assumptions. The amounts payable pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.17 and
3.5 hereof shall be determined based on the assumption that the Lender
funded the entire amount of the relevant LIBOR Loan through matching funding
obtained in the London interbank market; provided, however, that the Lender may
fund each LIBOR Loan in any manner it sees fit, and the foregoing assumption
shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under the Sections
identified above.
SECTION III - PAYMENTS, PROCEEDS AND TERM
3.1 Manner of Payment. All payments shall be delivered to the Lender in
immediately available funds when due.
3.2 Payment on Non-Banking Days. Any payment that is due on a day other than a
Banking Day may be made on the next succeeding Banking Day together with
interest for each such additional day after the original due date.
3.3 Late Payments. If any payment of principal, interest or fees payable
hereunder or under the Note is not received within fifteen (15) days from the
date that payment is due, the Lender may charge a "late charge" equal to five
cents ($.05) of each dollar of such delinquent payment for the purpose of
defraying the expense incident to handling that delinquent payment. This late
charge can be imposed on each late payment. This late charge shall be in
addition to, and not in lieu of, any other right or remedy the Lender may have
as a result of a late payment.
3.4 Prepayments. At any time after receipt of the prior written notice to the
Lender specified below, any Loan being made pursuant to this Loan Agreement may
be prepaid, in whole, or in part without penalty in multiples of ONE HUNDRED
THOUSAND and 00/100 DOLLARS ($100,000), provided, however, that no LIBOR Loan
may be prepaid except at the end of the applicable Interest Period and accrued
interest on the amount being prepaid plus any applicable fees as set forth in
Section 3.5 below shall simultaneously be paid. The notice required pursuant to
the immediately preceding sentence must be received by the Lender no later than
(i) 11:30 a.m. on the proposed prepayment date in that case of a prepayment of
the Prime Rate Loan and (ii) 11:30 a.m. on the LIBOR Banking Day that is at
least two (2) LIBOR Banking Days prior to the proposed prepayment date.
Prepayments shall be applied first to any expenses outstanding under any Loan
Document, then to any fees due hereunder, then to interest and then to
principal.
3.5 Funding Losses. The Borrower shall compensate the Lender, upon its written
request (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such
compensation), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities, including,
without limitation, any loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the
liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required to fund any
LIBOR Loan (all such losses "Funding Losses") which the Lender may sustain: (i)
if for any reason an advance of, or conversion from or into, a LIBOR Loan does
not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or notice of
conversion given pursuant to Sections 2.7 or 2.8; (ii) if any repayment
(including any prepayment made pursuant to Section 3.4) or conversion of any of
its LIBOR Loans occurs on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period
with respect thereto; or (iii) as a consequence of any other default by the
Borrower to repay its Loans when required by the terms of this Loan Agreement or
any Note held by the Lender.
3.6 Term. The Term of this Loan Agreement shall commence as of the Date of
Closing and, subject to the provisions hereof, shall expire at midnight on the
Maturity Date. The Maturity Date, and therefore the Term of this Agreement, may
be extended for additional one (1) year periods as of the first and second
anniversaries of the Date of Closing upon the written request of the Borrower to
the Lender made at least two (2) months prior (but not more than three (3)
months prior to said anniversary date). Such notice shall be accompanied (i) by
a certificate from the Chief Financial Officer of the Borrower stating that no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing and the
representations and warranties contained herein and in the other Loan Documents
are true and correct in all material respects on such date and (ii) three year
financial projections in GAAP format. The Lender shall not be obligated to
grant any such extension, it being acknowledged that the Lender may or may not
grant any such extension in its sole and absolute discretion, however, the
Lender agrees to reply to any such request within thirty days after receipt of
a request therefor in accordance with this Section 3.6.
3.7 Interest Limits. If the fulfillment of any provision in any Loan Document
relating to the rate of interest is prohibited by, or in violation of, any
applicable law in effect at the time payment is due, the interest rate shall be
automatically reduced to the maximum rate then permitted by law. If for any
reason the Lender should receive as interest an amount that would exceed the
highest applicable lawful rate of interest, that amount in excess of the lawful
rate will be deemed to have been credited against principal and not against
interest. This provision shall control every other provision in any Loan
Document that is applicable to the calculation of interest.
3.8 Borrowings. The Borrower shall give the Lender notice of each borrowing to
be made hereunder after the Date of Closing by (i) 11:00 am. of the date of such
borrowing, if a Prime Rate Loan, or (ii) by 11:00 am. two (2) LIBOR Banking Days
before the date of such borrowing, if a LIBOR Loan, all as further provided in
Section 2.7.
3.9 Certain Notices. Notices by the Borrower to the Lender of each borrowing
and each prepayment shall be irrevocable and shall be effective only if received
by the Lender not later than 11:00 a.m. New York City time.
3.10 Facility Fees. A commitment fee shall accrue on the daily average amount
of the Commitment for the period from and including the Date of Closing to the
earliest of the date the Commitment is terminated by the Borrower or the Lender,
as the case may be, in accordance with the terms hereof or the Maturity Date at
a rate per annum equal to twenty-five (25) Basis Points calculated on the basis
of a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed. The accrued commitment
fee shall be due and payable in arrears on the first day of each calendar
quarter, commencing on the first day of the first calendar quarter after the
Date of Closing and on the Maturity Date.
3.11 Fees. In consideration of credit underwriting services rendered by the
Lender and the negotiation and preparation of the Commitment and the Loan
Documents evidencing said Commitment, on or before the Date of Closing, the
Borrower shall pay to the Lender, a credit underwriting fee in the amount of
$25,000. On or before the Date of Closing and from time to time thereafter, the
Borrower shall also pay or reimburse the Lender for all of its counsel fees and
other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses related to this transaction and any
subsequent waivers, modifications or amendments.
3.12 Payment Generally. All payments under this Loan Agreement or the Note or
fees shall be made by the Borrower in United States Dollars in immediately
available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. New York City time on the date on which
such payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such
due date to be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Banking Day) at
the Lending Office provided, that, when a new Loan is to be made by the Lender
on a date the Borrower is to repay any principal of an outstanding Loan, the
Lender shall apply the proceeds thereof to the payment of the principal to be
repaid and only an amount equal to the difference between the principal to be
borrowed and the principal to be repaid shall be made available by the Lender to
the Borrower as provided in Section 2.7. The Borrower shall, at the time of
making each payment under this Loan Agreement or any Note, specify to the Lender
the principal or other amount payable by the Borrower under this Loan Agreement
or the Note to which such payment is to be applied, and in the event that it
fails to so specify, or if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Lender may apply such payment as it may elect in its sole
discretion. If the due date of any payment under this Loan Agreement or the Note
would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Banking Day, such date shall be
extended to the next succeeding Banking Day and interest shall by payable for
any principal so extended for the period of such extension.
3.13 Debiting of Account. If so requested by the Lender, the Borrower shall
maintain a demand deposit account (a DDA Account) with the Lender, and the
Lender may, and the Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to, debit any such DDA
Account or such other account maintained by the Borrower with the Lender for the
amount of any payment, as and when such payment becomes due hereunder, whether
such payment is for accrued interest, principal or expense, even if debiting any
such account results in a loss or reduction of interest to the Borrower or the
imposition of a penalty applicable to the early withdrawal of time deposits.
Such authorization shall not affect the Borrower's obligation to pay when due
all amounts payable hereunder, whether or not there are sufficient funds in any
accounts of the Borrower. The foregoing rights of the Lender to debit the
Borrower's accounts shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any
rights of set-off which the Lender may have hereunder or under any other Loan
Document.

in default under, or in violation of, any of its obligations under any agreement
or undertaking to which the Borrower is a party or by which the Borrower is
bound.
5.4 No Conflicting Litigation. There is no action or proceeding pending or
threatened against the Borrower or involving any assets of, or ownership in, the
Borrower before any court, administrative agency or governmental authority that
might (A) adversely affect the Borrower's ability to authorize or perform any
Obligations, (B) involve the possibility of any judgment or liability that would
result in any material adverse change in the Borrower's business, properties or
assets, (C) adversely affect the enforceability of any Loan Document, or (D)
involve possible or threatened claims totaling in excess of $500,000, except for
any litigation that has been accurately and completely described on Exhibit 2
annexed to the Principal's Certificate.
5.5 Ownership of Subsidiaries. Village Liquor Shop has been merged into the
Borrower, with the Borrower as the surviving entity, therefore, the Borrower
does not directly or indirectly own or control any Subsidiaries, other than such
subsidiaries which may be created or acquired subsequent to the Date of Closing
in accordance with Section 7.4(f) hereof.
5.6 Liens Against Property. The Borrower has good and marketable title to all
of the Property. All Property is now free and clear of Liens, except for any

each such location.
5.8 Financial Information and Condition. The consolidated audited financial
statement of the Borrower dated July 25, 1998 and delivered to the Lender truly
sets forth its financial condition and the results of operations as of that date
and there has been no material adverse change since then. All other statements,
representations and warranties made by the Borrower to the Lender have been, and
as of the Date of Closing are, accurate and complete and no information has been
omitted that would make any of them misleading or incomplete. Immediately prior
to, and after the making of each loan described in this Loan Agreement, the
Lender was not and will not be, (A) "insolvent" as that term is defined in
N.J.S.A. 25:2-23 (or any successor statute governing fraudulent transfers) or in
11 U.S.C.A. 101(3 1) or (B) left with "unreasonably small capital" or "debts
beyond the debtor's ability to pay as such debts become due", as those phrases
are construed under 11 U.S.C.A. 548 (a)(2)(B) or any other applicable statute
governing "fraudulent transfers".
5.9 Environmental Matters. Except as set forth in Exhibit 3 to the
Principal's Certificate, no Company has generated, stored, treated, discharged,
handled, refined, spilled, released or disposed of any Hazardous Substances in
violation of any applicable law or regulation. No Company has received any
notice, or is on notice of, any claim, investigation, litigation or
administrative proceeding, actual or threatened, or any order, writ or judgment
that relates to any discharge, spill, handling, refining, release, emission,
leaching or disposal of pollutants of any kind including any Hazardous
Substances by, or on property owned or leased by, any Company. The Standard
Industrial Classification code numbers relating to any activities any Company,
are also set forth on that Exhibit 3. In connection with any acquisition, sale,
closing, transfer, change in control or merger of Borrower or any Company since
December 31, 1983 or any Property now or previously owned or leased by them that
was subject to New Jersey law, the New Jersey Industrial Site Recovery Act
(N.J.S.A. 13: 1 K-6 et seq.) ("ISRA"), including any predecessor statute (such
as the Environmental Clean-Up Responsibility Act) was complied with by
submitting a "Negative Declaration" as that term is defined in N.J.A.C. 7:1-3.3
or by completing a "Clean-up Plan" as that term is defined in N.J.A.C. 7:1-3.3,
which Negative Declaration or Clean-up Plan has been approved, without condition
or reservation, by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and
Energy.
5.10 Taxes. Each Company has filed all tax returns and reports required to be
filed and has paid all taxes that are due and owing (including penalties,
deficiency assessments and interest) other than those that are being diligently
and in good faith disputed and the asserted liability for which is shown as a
reserve on the financial statements delivered to the Lender in accordance with
GAAP. All such returns and reports are accurate and complete in all respects.
5.11 Name and History. During the past twenty (20) years, no Company has (A)
had, used or operated under any other name or trade name, (B) acquired any other
organization or entity or a substantial portion of the assets of any other
organization or entity, (C) merged, or been merged into, any other organization
or entity or (D) controlled, directly or indirectly, any non-individual Person,

5.12 Controlling Interests. The names and respective interests and offices of
all Persons who directly or indirectly own or control Ten Percent (10%) or more
of any class of stock of the Borrower are set forth on Exhibit 5 annexed to the
Principal's Certificate. The Sumas Family holds a sufficient number of shares of
all classes of stock of Borrower to cast at least 51% of the votes that may be
cast in any election.
5.13 ERISA. There has not occurred, and there are no circumstances that, with
the lapse of time or giving of notice, may lead to the occurrence of, a
Termination Event under any Plan. No Company, nor any Plan maintained by any
Company (nor any related trust) has incurred any accumulated funding deficiency.
Except as disclosed on Exhibit 2 to the Principal's Certificate, no event or set
of circumstances has occurred under which any Company could be subject to any
liability (including but not limited to liability under Sections 4201 and 4242
of ERISA) with respect to a "multi-employer plan" (as defined in Section 3(37)
of ERISA) to which it contributes other than for contributions made in the
ordinary course of business, none of which are overdue. No representation or
warranty is made by Borrower with respect to payments or contributions due after
the date hereof by participants in any "Multi-employer plan" other than Borrower
and its affiliates.
5.14 Margin Stock. No Company is involved, as one of its important
activities, in the business of extending credit for the acquisition of any
"margin stock" (within the meaning of Regulation U issued by the Board of

any Loans under this Loan Agreement will be used to purchase, or to extend
credit to others so that they may purchase, any such margin stock.
5.15 Compliance with Loan Documents. Each Company is in full compliance with
all terms and conditions of all Loan Documents.
5.16 No Claims or Offsets. The aggregate principal amount of indebtedness due
to the Lender as of the date hereof is as stated in the Note. The Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that such indebtedness is unconditionally due to the
Lender, and that as of the date hereof has no claims against the Lender nor any
counterclaims, defenses or offsets to the Borrower's obligations under the Note
or the other Loan Documents of any nature whatsoever.
5.17 Compliance with Laws. To the best of its knowledge, each Company, in the
conduct of its business, is in compliance with all laws, regulations and orders,
the failure to comply with which would have a material adverse effect on the
business of such Company.
5.18 Wakefern. The Borrower is a member in good standing of the Wakefern
cooperative. The Borrower has duly performed all of its duties and obligations
as a member of the Wakefem cooperative and has the right to use the "Shop-Rite"
name and trademark. No claim is pending or, to the best of the Borrower's
knowledge, threatened asserting any breach of any such duties or obligations or
seeking to limit or curtail the Borrower's right to use such name or trademark.
5.19 Accuracy of Statements. All statements, representations and warranties
made by the Borrower in this Loan Agreement and in the Loan Documents are
correct and complete and no information has been omitted therefrom which would
make any of them misleading or incomplete.
5.20 Survival. All representations and warranties in any Loan Document shall
survive both the closing of any Loans and any independent investigation by the
Lender.

at law or in equity, at its option, do any one or more of the following in any
order, in any combination and at any time:
9.1 Acceleration. Declare any Obligations, including the Revolving Loan to be
immediately due and payable; or
9.2 Other Remedies. Exercise any other rights or remedies it may have under any
Loan Document or Obligation; or
9.3 Terminate Financing. Immediately terminate or reduce the lending Commitment
under the Revolving Loan; or
9.4 Direct Recourse. Institute suit directly against the Borrower; or
9.5 Other Creditor Remedies. Exercise any right or remedy available to the
Lender under any applicable law of any jurisdiction; or
9.6 Collection Expenses. Collect from the Borrower: (A) all reasonable fees
and disbursements of the Lender's attorneys incurred in obtaining advice or
representation relating to the collection or enforcement of any Obligation; and
(B) all expenses of, or in anticipation of, litigation including fees and
(C) expenses of witnesses, experts and stenographers and the cost to obtain or
produce appraisals. All such collection fees and expenses shall be due and
payable upon demand, and shall accrue interest at the highest rate in effect
from time to time under any Obligation; or
9.7 Other Expenses. At any time and from time to time, perform any duty or
obligation of any Company under any Loan Document or Obligation and to take any
other actions deemed by the Lender to be reasonably necessary to protect the
Lender's interest in any Property or to avoid any risk of damage or loss to the
Lender including steps to comply with applicable environmental laws. All
expenses of any nature incurred by the Lender under this Section shall be due
and payable upon demand, and shall accrue interest at the highest rate in effect
from time to time under any Obligation. The exercise by the Lender of its rights
under this Section shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or of
any right or remedy under this any Loan Document; or
9.8 Increase in Interest. Increase the rate of interest under any Obligations
to a floating interest rate determined by the Lender equal to three hundred
(300) basis points (3.00%) above the rate of interest otherwise applicable of
the Loans. This increase in interest rate shall be computed on the basis of a
360-day year and shall survive the entry of any judgment relating to any
Obligation.
9.9 Cessation of LIBOR Borrowing Rights. Prohibit any further borrowing at the
LIBOR Rate. If a Default occurs and is waived by the Lender, the Borrower will
have no further right to borrow at the LIBOR Rate notwithstanding any waiver or
forbearance by the Lender with respect to such Default, and all borrowings and
loans thereafter shall be Prime Rate Loans. No obligation to waive or forbear
from exercising any remedies upon a Default shall be inferred from this Section
9.9.
9.10 Right of Set-off. Without limiting any general right of set-off the Lender
may possess by operation of law and regardless of the adequacy of any collateral
for the Obligations or other means of obtaining repayment of the Obligations,
set-off against and apply to the then unpaid balance of the Obligations any
items or funds of the Borrower held by the Lender, any and all deposits (whether
general or special, time or demand, matured or unmatured) or any other property
of the Borrower, including, without limitation, securities and/or certificates
of deposit, now or hereafter maintained by the Borrower for its or their own
account with the Lender, and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by
the Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower, even if
effecting such set-off results in a loss or reduction of interest or the
imposition of a penalty applicable to the early withdrawal of time deposits.
For such purpose, the Lender shall have, and the Borrower hereby grants to the
Lender, a lien on and security interest in such deposits, property, funds and
accounts and the proceeds thereof.
9.11 Additional Rights of Lender. The Lender may exercise any of the rights and
remedies in Sections 9.6 or 9.7 upon the occurrence of any Default whether or
not the Lender has formally declared an Event of Default or accelerated any
Obligations, provided, however, that the Lender shall not exercise any rights or
remedies pursuant to this Section 9.11 until after the Borrower is on notice of
the circumstance or condition that would give rise to the Default.

conditions contained herein, to make certain financial commitments to Wakefern;
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises
and covenants hereinafter contained, Wakefern and the Stockholders hereby agree as follows:
1. COMMITMENT TO PARTICIPATE
1.1. Minimum Patronization Requirement. Each Stockholder, during the term of this
Agreement (the "Term"), shall purchase from Wakefern, during each quarter of each fiscal year
of Wakefern, at least 85% of such Stockholder's purchases for each of such Stockholder's stores
in each of Wakefern's product categories listed on Schedule 2(A) hereto (the "Product
Categories"), as the same may be amended from time to time by the Board of Directors of
Wakefern (the "Products") and all programs listed on Schedule 2(B) hereto as mandated by the
Board of Directors of Wakefern, as the same may be amended from time to time by the Board of
Directors of Wakefern (the "Programs"), upon such terms and conditions as to price and delivery

commitments shall be called the "minimum patronization requirement."

the Stockholders with respect to all supermarkets, food stores and/or grocery stores now or
hereafter operated by each such Stockholder, or by any entity or entities with which such

WITHDRAWALS; SALE OF A STORE; SALE OF STOCKHOLDER TO

more Stockholders to observe the minimum Patronization requirement; (b) the Withdrawal (as
hereinafter defined) of one or more Stockholders from Wakefern; or (c) the Sale of a Store (as
hereinafter defined), will have the effect of increasing the financial burden of all the
Stockholders with respect to meeting the financial obligations Wakefern is to assume under its
capital expenditure program.

meet or refuses to comply with the minimum patronization requirement set forth in Section 1.1

hereof, such defaulting Stockholder shall be required to pay to Wakefern in cash within 10 days
after demand therefore, an amount calculated pursuant to the provisions of Schedule 3 hereto;
provided, however, that such payment may be waived, in whole or in part, by an affirmative vote
of at least 12 members of the Board of Directors of Wakefern. Such payment obligation may be
imposed on a defaulting Stockholder irrespective of the reason that such Stockholder ceases to
meet the minimum patronization requirement (other than by, and to the extent of, "force
majeure" as hereinafter defined or if an exemption therefrom exists under this Agreement),
including, without limitation, by reason of change in control or other disposition of all or a part
of such Stockholder's business. The imposition of such payment obligation on such Stockholder
shall be binding and conclusive on such Stockholder unless waived pursuant to the provisions
contained in Section 2.1. As used herein, "force majeure" shall mean the inability of a
Stockholder to purchase Products from Wakefern by reason of events or contingencies beyond
such Stockholder's reasonable control including, but not limited to, fire, flood, explosion,
sabotage, other natural or made disaster, act of any government, labor dispute, lack of shipping
facilities or, without limiting the foregoing, any other circumstance that could not have been
avoided with reasonable care. The determination of what constitutes "force majeure" shall be
made by the Board of Directors of Wakefern, in its sole discretion.
2.2. Notice of Withdrawals; Withdrawal Payment. Each Stockholder agrees to give
Wakefern at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice of the happening of any of the following
events (each a "Withdrawal"):
(i) a sale or other disposition for value of all or substantially all ShopRite
supermarket business of such Stockholder in a single transaction or series of
related transactions; or
(ii) the merger or consolidation of such Stockholder with or into another
entity (irrespective of whether such Stockholder is the surviving or disappearing
entity); or

(iii) the transfer of, or any transaction or series of transactions that have
the effect of transferring, a "controlling interest" in such Stockholder (for
purposes hereof, a "controlling interest" in such Stockholder shall mean such
interest as confers on the holder thereof the power to direct or cause the direction
of the management and policies of such Stockholder).
Except as provided in Section 2.4 hereof, upon the occurrence of a Withdrawal prior to the
expiration of the Term, such Stockholder shall pay to Wakefern an amount calculated pursuant to
the provisions of Schedule 4 hereto the ''Withdrawal Payment." Upon payment of the
Withdrawal Payment and the payment and discharge of all obligations of such Stockholder
incurred hereunder prior to the date of such Withdrawal Payment, such Stockholder shall
thereafter have no further obligation under this Agreement. However, such discharge shall in no
way affect the obligations of such Stockholder to Wakefern or any affiliate of Wakefern arising
under any other agreement or in connection with any transaction or relationship of such
Stockholder with Wakefern or such affiliate.
2.3 Notice of Sale of Store; Sale of a Store Payment.
(a) Each Stockholder agrees to give Wakefern at least thirty (30) days' prior written
notice of the happening of the following event (a "Sale of a Store"):

capital stock, sale of assets or otherwise, of a supermarket, food or grocery
store (a "Store") owned, operated or controlled by such Stockholder, which
Store is being serviced by Wakefern.

a Store occurs, an amount calculated pursuant to the provisions of Schedule 3 hereto (the "Sale
of a Store Payment"). If a Stockholder shall be due any payment by Wakefern pursuant to

amount due such Stockholder to satisfy such Stockholder's indebtedness to Wakefern in respect
of any unpaid obligations under notes of such Stockholder pursuant to Wakefern's Investment
Policy. Upon payment of all of the Sale of a Store Payments required hereunder and the
payment and discharge of all obligations of the Stockholder incurred hereunder prior to the date
of such Sale of a Store Payment, such Stockholder shall thereafter have no further obligation to
Wakefern under this Agreement with respect to such Store sold. However, such discharge shall
in no way affect the obligations of such Stockholder to Wakefern or any affiliate of Wakefern
arising under any other agreement or in connection with any transaction or relationship of such
Stockholder with Wakefern or such affiliate.
(b) Such Stockholder shall not be obligated to make any Sale of a Store Payments if (i)
the Store sold in such Sale of a Store (a "Sale of an Underfacilitated Store") has not made a profit
for the fiscal year immediately preceding such Sale of a Store and if such Store either (x) has a
sales area of less than 20,000 square feet or (y) for the twelve month period immediately
preceding such Sale of a Store has average weekly sales of less than $300,000 (an
"Underfacilitated Store"); provided, however, that before any Stockholder may effect a Sale of
an Underfacilitated Store, such Stockholder must first comply with the provisions of Section 2.7,
or (ii) for each year in which the volume of purchases of the Products in each of the Product
Categories and Programs by all the ShopRite Stores owned by the affected Stockholder
(exclusive of the volume of purchases of the Products incurred as a result of the acquisition of
ShopRite Stores from other members of Wakefern during the year in which such Store is sold or
during subsequent years to the extent of the volume of purchases for such acquired Stores during
the year in which such affected Store is sold the "Purchase Volume" for such year), equals or
Stockholders Agreement as of 03.10.16
42905-1

exceeds the "minimum patronization requirement" of such Stockholder (assuming the affected
Store had not been sold) for the fiscal year for which such Sale of a Store Payment is to be
effected. For the purposes of the calculations specified in this Section 2.3(b) and Section 2.3(c)
below, the "minimum patronization requirement" of a Store sold is the "minimum patronization
requirement" for such Store for the fiscal year immediately preceding such sale.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.3(a) above, if for any
year the Purchase Volume of a Stockholder for any year subsequent to the Sale of a Store is less
than the "minimum patronization requirement" of such Stockholder (assuming such Store had
not been sold) the amount of such deficiency hereinafter referred to as the "Shortfall" but is
greater than the "minimum patronization requirement" of such Stockholder for all Stores other
than such sold Store, then the Sale of a Store Payment to be made by such Stockholder hereunder
for such year shall be reduced to a fraction thereof, the numerator of which is the Shortfall, and
the denominator of which is the "minimum patronization requirement" for such sold Store.
2.4 Qualified Successor. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2,
if the purchaser acquiror or successor in any Withdrawal or Sale of a Store is a "qualified
successor" (as hereinafter defined), such Stockholder, upon completion of the Withdrawal or
Sale of a Store described in said notice, shall be relieved of all obligations under this Agreement
with respect to such Withdrawal or Sale of a Store arising at the time of or immediately after the
date of completion of such Withdrawal or Sale of a Store. For purposes of this Section 2.4, the
term "qualified successor" shall mean Wakefern, a direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of
Wakefern or any person, firm or corporation that agrees in writing to be bound by all the
provisions of this Agreement and the By-Laws of Wakefern as in effect from time to time, is
financially sound (as determined by the Board of Directors of Wakefern) and that is neither

directly nor indirectly (a) an operator or owner of a chain of 25 or more supermarkets, other than
ShopRite supermarkets, in the United States, or (b) an owner or operator of one or more
supermarkets, other than ShopRite supermarkets, in any of the States of New York, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Connecticut Massachusetts, Rhode Island,
Vermont, New Hampshire or Maine, or in Washington, D.C.
2.5 Implementation of Withdrawal Payment and Sale of a Store Payment. The
implementation and mechanics of payment of the Withdrawal Payment and the Sale of a Store
Payment shall be determined by the Board of Directors of Wakefern in its sole discretion. The
Withdrawal Payment may be waived, in whole or in part, by an affirmative vote of at least two-
thirds 2/3 of the members of the Board of Directors of Wakefern, but in no event less than twelve
members of such board.
2.6 [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]
2.7 Right of First Refusal.
(a) Any Stockholder desiring to effect the Sale of an Underfacilitated Store to a non-
qualified successor in a bona fide transaction shall first offer to sell such Underfacilitated Store
to Wakefern at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as those proposed in the
transaction between such Stockholder and such purchaser, provided that if such Underfacilitated
Store is not to be disposed of for value (a "Section 2.7(c) Sale"), then Wakefern shall have the
right to purchase such Underfacilitated Store at its "fair value" (determined in accordance with
subsection 2.7(c) below). Each such offer shall be made by written notice to Wakefern, which
notice shall provide full details of the proposed sale, including the identity of the proposed
purchaser (the "Notice"). Wakefern shall have a period (the "Offering Period") of thirty (30)
days or, in the case of a Section 2.7(c) Sale, thirty-five 35 days, in which to accept the offer,

which acceptance must be in writing (the "Acceptance"). The selling Stockholder shall
cooperate fully with Wakefern by making available to Wakefern, upon reasonable notice, during
regular business hours, its books, records, assets and properties for examination
(b) In the event that Wakefern declines to purchase such Underfacilitated Store during
the Offering Period, the Stockholder shall have the right, subject to compliance with all other
provisions of this Agreement, including those set forth in this Section 2.3(b) hereof, and all other
agreements or rules by which the Stockholder is bound including, without limitation, the By-
Laws of Wakefern, to dispose of such Underfacilitated Store upon the terms and conditions
(including the price, if any) so stated in the Notice in a bona fide transaction during the thirty
(30) day period commencing on the earlier to occur of (i) Wakefern's rejection by written notice
to the Stockholder of such Stockholder's offer, or (ii) the Offering Period expires without
Wakefern responding to such Stockholder's offer. If such Underfacilitated Store is not disposed
of within such thirty (30) day period, then such Underfacilitated Store shall once again be subject
to the rights of first refusal set forth in this Section 2.7.
(c) For purposes of Section 2.7(a), "fair value" of an Underfacilitated Store shall be
determined as follows: Within ten (10) days of the date of delivery of the Notice, Wakefern shall
appoint one investment banking firm (the "independent investment banking firm") from among
the investment banking firms listed on Schedule 5 hereto (or any other investment banking firm
agreed to by the selling Stockholder). Within twenty (20) days after such appointment, the
independent investment banking firm shall determine the fair value of the Underfacilitated Store,
without taking into account any third party offer made for such Underfacilitated Store and
without giving effect to this Agreement. Wakefern shall pay the fee of the independent
investment banking firm. The selling Stockholder shall cooperate fully with the independent
Stockholders Agreement as of 03.10.16

investment banking firm by making available to such firm, upon reasonable notice, during
normal business hours, its books, records, assets and properties for examination. In the case of a
Section 2.7(c) Sale, not later than ten 10 days following its delivery of the Acceptance, Wakefern
shall consummate its purchase of the Underfacilitated Store for a purchase price equal to the fair
value determined in accordance with this subsection 2.7(c). Wakefern shall have the right to pay
the purchase price in any combination of cash, debt and securities designated by it (the debt or
securities so issued shall be (i) redeemable for cash at the option of Wakefern, (ii) negotiable
instruments (as such term is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) and (iii) redeemable for
cash at the option of such Stockholder at any time after the second anniversary of the issuance
thereof), provided that the aggregate consideration paid by Wakefern is in the opinion of the
independent investment banking firm equal in value to the all cash purchase price

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of operations
Village Super Market, Inc. (the “Company” or “Village”) operates a chain of 29 ShopRite supermarkets in New Jersey, eastern Pennsylvania and Maryland. The Company is a member of Wakefern Food Corporation ("Wakefern"), the nation's largest retailer-owned food cooperative and owner of the ShopRite name. This relationship provides Village many of the economies of scale in purchasing, distribution, private label products, advanced retail technology, marketing and advertising associated with chains of greater size and geographic coverage.
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Village Super Market, Inc. and its subsidiaries, which are wholly owned. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Certain amounts have been reclassified in the fiscal 2015 consolidated statement of comprehensive income to conform to the fiscal 2017 presentation.
Fiscal year
The Company and its subsidiaries utilize a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the last Saturday in the month of July. Fiscal 2017 and 2015 contain 52 weeks. Fiscal 2016 contains 53 weeks.
Use of estimates
In conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Some of the more significant estimates are patronage dividends, pension accounting assumptions, accounting for uncertain tax positions, accounting for contingencies and the impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Industry segment
The Company consists of one operating segment, the retail sale of food and nonfood products.
Revenue recognition
Merchandise sales are recognized at the point of sale to the customer. Sales tax is excluded from revenue. Discounts provided to customers through ShopRite coupons and loyalty programs are recognized as a reduction of sales as the products are sold.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Included in cash and cash equivalents are proceeds due from credit and debit card transactions, which typically settle within five business days, of $7,641 and $7,534 at July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016, respectively. Included in cash and cash equivalents at July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016 are $60,037 and $63,609, respectively, of demand deposits invested at Wakefern at overnight money market rates.
Merchandise inventories
Approximately 65% of merchandise inventories are stated at the lower of LIFO (last-in, first-out) cost or market. If the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method had been used, inventories would have been $14,410 and $14,522 higher than reported in fiscal 2017 and 2016, respectively. All other inventories are stated at the lower of FIFO cost or market.
Vendor allowances and rebates
The Company receives vendor allowances and rebates, including the patronage dividend and amounts received as a pass through from Wakefern, related to the Company’s buying and merchandising activities. Vendor allowances and rebates are recognized as a reduction in cost of sales when the related merchandise is sold or when the required contractual terms are completed.
Property, equipment and fixtures
Property, equipment and fixtures are recorded at cost. Interest cost incurred to finance construction is capitalized as part of the cost of the asset. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.
Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of thirty years for buildings, ten years for store fixtures and equipment, and three years for vehicles. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the related lease terms or the estimated useful lives of the related assets.
When assets are sold or retired, their cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated financial statements.
Investments
The Company’s investments in its principal supplier, Wakefern, and a Wakefern affiliate, Insure-Rite, Ltd., are stated at cost (see Note 3). Village evaluates its investments in Wakefern and Insure-Rite, Ltd. for impairment through consideration of previous, current and projected levels of profit of those entities.
The Company’s 20%-50% investments in certain real estate partnerships are accounted for under the equity method. One of these partnerships is a variable interest entity which does not require consolidation as Village is not the primary beneficiary (see Note 6).
Store opening and closing costs
All store opening costs are expensed as incurred. The Company records a liability for the future minimum lease payments and related costs for closed stores from the date of closure to the end of the remaining lease term, net of estimated cost recoveries that may be achieved through subletting, discounted using a risk-adjusted interest rate.
Leases
Leases that meet certain criteria are classified as capital leases, and assets and liabilities are recorded at amounts equal to the lesser of the present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the leased properties at the inception of the respective leases. Such assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the related lease terms or the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Amounts representing interest expense relating to the lease obligations are recorded to effect constant rates of interest over the terms of the leases. Leases that do not qualify as capital leases are classified as operating leases. The Company accounts for rent holidays, escalating rent provisions, and construction allowances on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
For leases in which the Company is involved with the construction of the store, if Village concludes that it has substantially all of the risks of ownership during construction of the leased property and therefore is deemed the owner of the project for accounting purposes, an asset and related financing obligation are recorded for the costs paid by the landlord. Once construction is complete, the Company considers the requirements for sale-leaseback treatment. If the arrangement does not qualify for sale-leaseback treatment, the Company amortizes the financing obligation and depreciates the building over the lease term.
Advertising
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense was $11,824, $11,644 and $11,121 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Income taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company recognizes a tax benefit for uncertain tax positions if it is “more likely than not” that the position is sustainable, based on its technical merits. The tax benefit of a qualifying position is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon effective settlement with a taxing authority having full knowledge of all relevant information.
Fair value
Fair value is defined as the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined using assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The fair value guidance establishes a three-level hierarchy to prioritize the inputs used in measuring fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Cash and cash equivalents, patronage dividend receivable, income taxes receivable/payable, accounts payable and accrued expenses are reflected in the consolidated financial statements at carrying value, which approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying values of the Company’s notes receivable from Wakefern approximate their fair value as interest is earned at variable market rates. As the Company’s investment in Wakefern can only be sold to Wakefern at amounts that approximate the Company’s cost, it is not practicable to estimate the fair value of such investment.
Long-lived assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets, such as property, equipment and fixtures on an individual store basis for impairment when circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. Such review analyzes the undiscounted estimated future cash flows from such assets to determine if the carrying value of such assets are recoverable from their respective cash flows. If impairment is indicated, it is measured by comparing the fair value of the long-lived assets to their carrying value.
Goodwill
Goodwill is tested at the end of each fiscal year, or more frequently if circumstances dictate, for impairment. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. Village operates as a single reporting unit for purposes of evaluating goodwill for impairment and primarily considers earnings multiples and other valuation techniques to measure fair value, in addition to the value of the Company’s stock.
Net income per share
The Company has two classes of common stock. Class A common stock is entitled to cash dividends as declared 54% greater than those paid on Class B common stock. Shares of Class B common stock are convertible on a share-for-share basis for Class A common stock at any time.
The Company utilizes the two-class method of computing and presenting net income per share. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that calculates basic and diluted net income per share for each class of common stock separately based on dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Under the two-class method, Class A common stock is assumed to receive a 54% greater participation in undistributed earnings than Class B common stock, in accordance with the classes' respective dividend rights. Unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends are treated as participating securities and therefore included in computing net income per share using the two-class method.
Diluted net income per share for Class A common stock is calculated utilizing the if-converted method, which assumes the conversion of all shares of Class B common stock to Class A common stock on a share-for-share basis, as this method is more dilutive than the two-class method. Diluted net income per share for Class B common stock does not assume conversion of Class B common stock to shares of Class A common stock.
The tables below reconcile the numerators and denominators of basic and diluted net income per share for all periods presented.

Outstanding stock options to purchase Class A shares of 376, 226 and 224 were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share at July 29, 2017, July 30, 2016 and July 25, 2015, respectively, as a result of their anti-dilutive effect. In addition, 361, 250 and 271 non-vested restricted Class A shares, which are considered participating securities, and their allocated net income were excluded from the diluted net income per share calculation at July 29, 2017, July 30, 2016 and July 25, 2015, respectively, due to their anti-dilutive effect.
Share-based compensation
All share-based payments to employees are recognized in the financial statements as compensation costs based on the fair market value on the date of the grant.
Benefit plans
The Company recognizes the funded status of its Company sponsored retirement plans on the consolidated balance sheet. Actuarial gains or losses, curtailments, prior service costs or credits, and transition obligations not previously recognized are recorded as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. The Company uses July 31 as the measurement date for these plans.
The Company also contributes to several multi-employer pension plans under the terms of collective bargaining agreements that cover certain union-represented employees. Pension expense for these plans is recognized as contributions are made.
Recently issued accounting standards In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which provides guidance for revenue recognition. The standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company expects to adopt the new standard in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending July 27, 2019. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of ASU No. 2014-09 on its financial statements. The Company does not anticipate it will have a material impact on its recognition of revenue at the point of sale, and is continuing to identify and assess transactions that may be affected by the new standard. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases." This guidance requires lessees to recognize lease liabilities and a right-of-use asset for all leases with terms of more than 12 months on the balance sheet. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018, with earlier adoption permitted. The Company expects to adopt the new standard in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending July 25, 2020. ASU 2016-02 requires a modified retrospective approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after the date of initial adoption. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 will result in a significant increase to the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets for lease liabilities and right-of-use assets, and the Company is currently evaluating the other effects of adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, "Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting." The guidance changes several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including accounting for income taxes, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, with earlier adoption permitted. The Company will adopt the new standard in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending July 28, 2018. The Company does not anticipate it will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Related Party Transactions [Abstract] |

RELATED PARTY INFORMATION - WAKEFERN |
RELATED PARTY INFORMATION - WAKEFERN
The Company’s ownership interest in its principal supplier, Wakefern, which is operated on a cooperative basis for its stockholder members, is 12.9% of the outstanding shares of Wakefern at July 29, 2017. The investment is stated at cost and is pledged as collateral for any obligations to Wakefern. In addition, all obligations to Wakefern are personally guaranteed by certain shareholders of Village.
The Company is obligated to purchase 85% of its primary merchandise requirements from Wakefern until ten years from the date that stockholders representing 75% of Wakefern sales notify Wakefern that those stockholders request that the Wakefern Stockholder Agreement be terminated. If this purchase obligation is not met, Village is required to pay Wakefern’s profit contribution shortfall attributable to this failure. Similar payments are due if Wakefern loses volume by reason of the sale of Company stores or a merger with another entity. Village fulfilled the above obligation in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015. The Company also has an investment of approximately 8.0% in Insure-Rite, Ltd., a Wakefern affiliated company, which provides Village with liability and property insurance coverage.
Wakefern has increased from time to time the required investment in its common stock for each supermarket owned by a member, with the exact amount per store computed based on the amount of each store’s purchases from Wakefern. At July 29, 2017, the Company’s indebtedness to Wakefern for the outstanding amount of these stock subscriptions was $406. Installment payments are due as follows: 2017 -$292; 2018 - $114 and none thereafter. The maximum per store investment, which is currently $925, increased by $25 in both fiscal 2017 and 2016, resulting in additional investments of $626 and $717, respectively. Village receives additional shares of common stock to the extent paid for at the end of each fiscal year (which ends on or about September 30) of Wakefern calculated at the then book value per share. The payments, together with any stock issued thereunder, at the option of Wakefern, may be null and void and all payments on this subscription shall become the property of Wakefern in the event the Company does not complete the payment of this subscription in a timely manner.
Village purchases substantially all of its merchandise from Wakefern. As a stockholder of Wakefern, Village earns a share of Wakefern’s earnings, which are distributed as a “patronage dividend.” This dividend is based on a distribution of substantially all of Wakefern’s operating profits for its fiscal year in proportion to the dollar volume of purchases by each member from Wakefern during that fiscal year. Patronage dividends are recorded as a reduction of cost of sales as merchandise is sold. Village accrues estimated patronage dividends due from Wakefern quarterly based on an estimate of the annual Wakefern patronage dividend and an estimate of Village’s share of this annual dividend based on Village’s estimated proportional share of the dollar volume of business transacted with Wakefern that year. Patronage dividends and other vendor allowances and rebates amounted to $30,048, $30,559 and $27,557 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Wakefern provides the Company with support services in numerous areas including advertising, liability and property insurance, supplies, certain equipment purchasing, coupon processing, certain financial accounting applications, retail technology support, and other store services. Village incurred charges of $32,135, $33,526 and $33,306 from Wakefern in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, for these services, which are reflected in operating and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations. Additionally, the Company has certain related party leases (see Note 6) with Wakefern. At July 29, 2017, the Company had $44,680 in notes receivable due from Wakefern. Half of these notes earned interest at the prime rate plus .25% and matured on August 15, 2017 and half earn interest at the prime rate plus 1.25% and mature on February 15, 2019. The Company invested $22,000 of the proceeds received from the notes that matured on August 15, 2017 in variable rate notes receivable from Wakefern that earn interest at the prime rate plus 1.25% and mature on August 15, 2022. Wakefern has the right to prepay these notes at any time. Under certain conditions, the Company can require Wakefern to prepay the notes, although interest earned since inception would be reduced as if it was earned based on overnight money market rates as paid by Wakefern on demand deposits. At July 29, 2017, the Company had demand deposits invested at Wakefern in the amount of $60,037. These deposits earn overnight money market rates.
Interest income earned on investments with Wakefern was $2,841, $2,506 and $2,399 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

NOTE 5 — INCOME TAXES
The components of the provision for income taxes are: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 2017 | | 2016 | | 2015 | Federal: | | | | | | Current | $ | 10,018 |

| | | | | | | | $ | 16,202 |
| | $ | 17,295 |
| | $ | 10,775 |
|
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows: | | | | | | | | | | July 29, 2017 | | July 30, 2016 | Deferred tax assets: | | | |
| Leasing activities | $ | 8,115 |
| | $ | 7,922 |

| Tax over book depreciation | 17,603 |
| | 17,114 |
| Patronage dividend receivable | 5,164 |
| | 5,270 |
| Investment in partnerships | 1,479 |
| | 1,476 |
| Other | — |
| | 171 |
| | | | | Total deferred tax liabilities | 24,246 |
| | 24,031 |
| | | | | Net deferred tax (liability) asset | $ | (6,145 | ) | | $ | 183 |
|
Deferred income tax assets (liabilities) are included in the following captions on the consolidated balance sheets at July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016: | | | | | | | | 2017 | | 2016 | Other assets | 611 |
| | 1,576 |
| Other liabilities | (6,756 | ) | | (1,393 | ) |
A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In management’s opinion, in view of the Company’s previous, current and projected taxable income and reversal of deferred tax liabilities, such tax assets will more likely than not be fully realized. Accordingly, no valuation allowance was deemed to be required at July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016.
The effective income tax rate differs from the statutory federal income tax rate as follows: | | | | | | | | | | | 2017 | | 2016 | | 2015 | Statutory federal income tax rate | 35.0 | % | | 35.0 | % | | 35.0 | % | State income taxes, net of federal tax benefit | 6.2 | % | | 5.9 | % | | 6.1 | % | Unrecognized tax benefits, interest and penalties on prior year tax positions | — | % | | — | % | | (17.6 | )% | Current year interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits | 0.1 | % | | 0.2 | % | | 2.0 | % | Other | 0.1 | % | | (0.3 | )% | | 0.5 | % | | | | | | | Effective income tax rate | 41.4 | % | | 40.8 | % | | 26.0 | % |
In prior years, the state of New Jersey issued two separate tax assessments related to nexus beginning in fiscal 2000 and the deductibility of certain payments between subsidiaries beginning in fiscal 2002. Village contested both of these assessments through the state’s conference and appeals process and was subsequently denied. The Company then filed two complaints in Tax Court against the New Jersey Division of Taxation (the "Division") contesting these assessments and a trial limited to the nexus dispute was conducted in June 2013. On October 23, 2013, the Tax Court issued their opinion on the matter in favor of the Division. As a result, the Company recorded a $10,052 charge, net of federal benefit, to income tax expense in the fiscal quarter ended October 26, 2013, to increase unrecognized tax benefits and related interest and penalties for tax positions taken in prior years.
On February 27, 2015, the Company reached an agreement with the Division whereby the Company paid $33,000 in March 2015 to settle the disputes with the Division for fiscal years 2000 through 2014. Net of federal benefit, the total cash outflow as a result of the settlement was approximately $21,000. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company withdrew its appeal of the Tax Court opinion on the nexus dispute. In addition, the case pending on the deductibility of certain payments between subsidiaries was dismissed and the Division withdrew the related assessments. The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $7,293, net of federal taxes, in the fiscal quarter ending April 25, 2015 to reverse remaining unrecognized tax benefits and related interest and penalties in excess of the settlement. The Division is currently auditing tax years 2011 through 2015 for all applicable entities and tax years 2000 through 2014 related to the February 2015 settlement agreement. The Company is open to examination by the remaining relevant tax authorities with varying statutes of limitations, generally ranging from three to four years.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | 2017 | | 2016 | Balance at beginning of year | $ | 631 |
| | $ | 514 |
| Additions based on tax positions related to prior periods | 17 |
| | — |
| Additions based on tax positions related to the current year | — |
| | 117 |
| | | | | Balance at end of year | $ | 648 |
| | $ | 631 |
|
Unrecognized tax benefits at July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016 include tax positions of $585 and $541 (net of federal benefit), respectively, that would reduce the Company’s effective income tax rate, if recognized in future periods.
Although the outcome and timing are uncertain, the Company anticipates that the balance of gross unrecognized tax benefits will reverse during the next twelve months.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties on income taxes in income tax expense. The Company recognized expense (benefit) of $50, $39 and $(9,811) in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, related to interest and penalties on income taxes. The amount of accrued interest and penalties included in the consolidated balance sheet was $242 and $192 at July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016, respectively.

LEASES |
NOTE 6 — LEASES
Description of leasing arrangements
The Company leased 23 stores at July 29, 2017, including five that are capitalized for financial reporting purposes. The majority of initial lease terms range from 20 to 30 years.
Most of the Company’s leases contain renewal options at increased rents of five years each. These options enable Village to retain the use of facilities in desirable operating areas. Management expects that in the normal course of business, most leases will be renewed or replaced by other leases. The Company is obligated under all leases to pay for real estate taxes, utilities and liability insurance, and under certain leases to pay additional amounts based on maintenance and a percentage of sales in excess of stipulated amounts.
Future minimum lease payments by year and in the aggregate for all non-cancelable leases with initial terms of one year or more consist of the following at July 29, 2017: | | | | | | | | | | Capital and financing leases | | Operating leases | 2018 | $ | 4,959 |

The Company leases a supermarket from a realty firm 30% owned by certain officers of Village. The Company paid rent to related parties under this lease of $688, $642 and $640 in fiscal years 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The Company subleases the Galloway and Vineland stores from Wakefern under sublease agreements which provided for combined annual rents of $1,316, $1,316 and $1,296 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Both leases contain normal periodic rent increases and options to extend the lease.

SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY |
NOTE 7 — SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
The Company has two classes of common stock. Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share and to cash dividends as declared 54% greater than those paid on Class B common stock. Class B common stock is entitled to 10 votes per share. Class A and Class B common stock share equally on a per share basis in any distributions in liquidation. Shares of Class B common stock are convertible on a share-for-share basis for Class A common stock at any time. Class B common stock is not transferable except to another holder of Class B common stock or by will or under the laws of intestacy or pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company approving the transfer. As a result of this voting structure, the holders of the Class B common stock control greater than 50% of the total voting power of the shareholders of the Company and control the election of the Board of Directors.
The Company has authorized 10,000 shares of preferred stock. No shares have been issued. The Board of Directors is authorized to designate series, preferences, powers and participations of any preferred stock issued.
During fiscal 2015 the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $5,000 of its Class A Common Stock. Repurchases may be made from time to time through a variety of methods, including open market purchases and other negotiated transactions, including through plans designed to comply with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company made open market purchases totaling $1,859 and $978 under this repurchase program in fiscal 2017 and 2016, respectively, and an additional $2,222 in shares of Class A Common Stock were surrendered in satisfaction of withholding taxes in connection with the vesting of restricted shares in Fiscal 2017.
Village has three share-based compensation plans, which are described below. The compensation cost charged against income for these plans was $3,134, $3,195 and $3,169 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Total income tax benefit recognized in the consolidated statements of operations for share-based compensation arrangements was $802, $1,131 and $1,134 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

There are 1,200 shares of Class A common stock authorized for issuance to employees and directors under the 2004 Plan. Terms and conditions of awards are determined by the Board of Directors. Option awards are primarily granted at the fair value of the Company’s stock at the date of grant, cliff vest three years from the grant date and are exercisable up to ten years from the date of grant. Restricted stock awards primarily cliff vest three years from the grant date. There are no shares remaining for future grants under the 2004 Plan.
On December 17, 2010, the shareholders of the Company approved the Village Super Market, Inc. 2010 Stock Plan (the “2010 Plan”) under which awards of incentive and non-qualified stock options and restricted stock may be made. There are 1,200 shares of Class A common stock authorized for issuance to employees and directors under the 2010 Plan. Terms and conditions of awards are determined by the Board of Directors. Option awards granted to date were granted at the fair value of the Company's stock on the date of grant, primarily cliff vest three years from the grant date and are exercisable up to ten years from the grant date. Restricted stock awards primarily cliff vest three years from the date of grant. There are 45 shares remaining for future grants under the 2010 Plan.
On December 16, 2016, the shareholders of the Company approved the Village Super Market, Inc. 2016 Stock Plan (the “2016 Plan”) under which awards of incentive and non-qualified stock options and restricted stock may be made.

As of July 29, 2017, the weighted-average remaining contractual term of options outstanding and options exercisable was 4.8 years and 4.7 years, respectively. As of July 29, 2017, the aggregate intrinsic value was $2 for both options outstanding and options exercisable. The weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted was $4.79 and $4.32 per share in fiscal 2016 and 2015, respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised was $204, $70 and $1,090 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model using the weighted-average assumptions in the following table. The Company uses historical data for similar groups of employees in order to estimate the expected life of options granted. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock for a period of years corresponding to the expected life of the option. The risk free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the time of grant for securities with a maturity period similar to the expected life of the option. | | | | | | | | 2016 | | 2015 | Expected life (years) | 5.0 |

PENSION PLANS |
PENSION PLANS
Company-Sponsored Pension Plans
The Company sponsors four defined benefit pension plans. Two are tax-qualified plans covering members of unions. Benefits under these two plans are based on a fixed amount for each year of service. One is a tax-qualified plan covering nonunion associates. Benefits under this plan are based upon percentages of annual compensation. Funding for these plans is based on an analysis of the specific requirements and an evaluation of the assets and liabilities of each plan. The fourth plan is an unfunded, nonqualified plan providing supplemental pension benefits to certain executives.
On November 29, 2016, the Company amended the Village Super Market Local 72 Retail Clerks Employees’ Retirement Plan, which covers union employees in the Stroudsburg store, to freeze all benefits effective January 31, 2017. As a result of this amendment, the Company recognized a pre-tax remeasurement gain totaling $629 in accumulated other comprehensive loss during fiscal 2017. The remeasurement had no impact on the consolidated statements of operations.
On February 15, 2016, the Company amended the Village Super Market Employees Retirement Plan, which covers nonunion employees and pharmacists, to freeze all benefits effective March 31, 2016. As a result of this amendment, the Company recognized a pre-tax curtailment gain totaling $17,904 in accumulated other comprehensive loss during fiscal 2016.
Net periodic pension cost for the four plans include the following components: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 2017 | | 2016 | | 2015 | Service cost | $ | 388 |
| | $ | 3,099 |

| | 1,295 |
| Net periodic pension cost | $ | 1,436 |
| | $ | 3,989 |
| | $ | 4,034 |
|
The Company recognized a settlement loss (gain) of $965 and $(239) in fiscal 2017 and 2015, respectively, for plans where benefits paid exceeded the sum of the service cost and interest cost components of net periodic pension cost during the year.
The changes in benefit obligations and the reconciliation of the funded status of the Company’s plans to the consolidated balance sheets were as follows:

| | $ | 22,502 |
|
The Company expects approximately $570 of the net actuarial loss to be recognized as a component of net periodic benefit costs in fiscal 2018.
The accumulated benefit obligations of the four plans were $71,701 and $80,021 at July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016, respectively. The following information is presented for those plans with an accumulated benefit obligation in excess of plan assets:
| | | | | | | | | | 2017 | | 2016 | Projected benefit obligation | $ | 70,019 |
| | $ | 80,021 |
| Accumulated benefit obligation | 70,019 |
| | 80,021 |
| Fair value of plan assets | 54,557 |
| | 53,281 |
|
Weighted average assumptions used to determine benefit obligations and net periodic pension cost for the Company’s defined benefit plans were as follows: | | | | | | | | | | | 2017 | | 2016 | | 2015 | Assumed discount rate — net periodic pension cost | 3.08 | % | | 4.02 | % | | 3.95 | % | Assumed discount rate — benefit obligation | 3.60 | % | | 3.08 | % | | 4.02 | % | Assumed rate of increase in compensation levels | 4 - 4.5 | % | | 4 - 4.5 | % | | 4 - 4.5 | % | Expected rate of return on plan assets | 7.50 | % | | 7.50 | % | | 7.50 | % |
Investments in the pension trusts are overseen by the trustees of the plans, who are officers of Village. The Company’s overall investment strategy is to maintain a broadly diversified portfolio of stocks, bonds and money market instruments that, along with periodic plan contributions, provide the necessary funds for ongoing benefit obligations. Expected rates of return on plan assets are developed by determining projected stock and bond returns and then applying these returns to the target asset allocations of the trusts, resulting in a weighted-average rate of return on plan assets. Equity returns were based primarily on historical returns of the S&P 500 Index. Fixed-income projected returns were based primarily on historical returns for the broad U.S. bond market. The target allocations for plan assets are 50-70% equity securities, 25-40% fixed income securities and 0-10% cash. Asset allocations are reviewed periodically and appropriate rebalancing is performed.
Equity securities include investments in large-cap, small-cap and mid-cap companies located both in and outside the United States. Fixed income securities include U.S. treasuries, mortgage-backed securities and corporate bonds of companies from diversified industries. Investments in securities are made both directly and through mutual funds. In addition, one plan held Class A common stock of Village in the amount of $636 and $770 at July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016, respectively.
Risk management is accomplished through diversification across asset classes and fund strategies, multiple investment portfolios and investment guidelines. The plans do not allow for investments in derivative instruments.
The fair value of the pension assets were as follows: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | July 29, 2017 | | July 30, 2016 | Asset Category | | Level 1 | | Level 2 | | Total | | Level 1 | | Level 2 | | Total | Cash | | $ | 166 |

Based on actuarial assumptions, estimated future defined benefit payments, which may be significantly impacted by participant elections related to retirement dates and forms of payment, are as follows: | | | | | Fiscal Year | | 2018 | $ | 3,670 |
| 2019 | 2,530 |

| 2021 | 3,101 |
| 2022 | 12,750 |
| 2023 - 2027 | 17,830 |
|
The Company expects to contribute $3,500 in cash to all defined benefit pension plans in fiscal 2018.
Multi-Employer Plans
The Company contributes to three multi-employer pension plans under collective bargaining agreements covering union-represented employees. These plans provide benefits to participants that are generally based on a fixed amount for each year of service. Based on the most recent information available, certain of these multi-employer plans are underfunded. The amount of any increase or decrease in Village’s required contributions to these multi-employer pension plans will depend upon the outcome of collective bargaining, actions taken by trustees who manage the plans, government regulations and the actual return on assets held in the plans, among other factors.
The risks of participating in multi-employer pension plans are different from the risks of participating in single-employer pension plans in the following respects:
| | • | Assets contributed to a multi-employer plan by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers. |
| | • | If a participating employer stops contributing to the plan, the unfunded obligations of the plan allocable to such withdrawing employer may be borne by the remaining participating employers. |
| | • | If the Company stops participating in some of its multi-employer pension plans, the Company may be required to pay those plans an amount based on its allocable share of the underfunded status of the plan, referred to as a withdrawal liability. |
The Company’s participation in these plans is outlined in the following tables. The “EIN / Pension Plan Number” column provides the Employer Identification Number (“EIN”) and the three-digit pension plan number. The most recent “Pension Protection Act Zone Status” available in 2016 and 2015 is for the plan’s year-end at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, unless otherwise noted. Among other factors, generally, plans in the red zone are less than 65 percent funded, plans in the yellow zone are between 65 and 80 percent funded and plans in the green zone are at least 80 percent funded. The “FIP/RP Status Pending / Implemented” column indicates plans for which a funding improvement plan (“FIP”) or a rehabilitation plan (“RP”) is either pending or has been implemented. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pension Protection Act Zone Status | FIP/RP Status Pending / Implemented | Contributions for the year ended (5) | | Expiration date of Collective- Bargaining Agreement | Pension Fund | EIN / Pension Plan Number | 2016 | 2015 | July 29, 2017 | July 30, 2016 | July 25, 2015 | Surcharge Imposed (6) | Pension Plan of Local 464A (1) | 22-6051600-001 | Green | Green | N/A | $ | 762 |

Other Multi-Employer Benefit Plans
The Company also contributes to various other multi-employer benefit plans that provide health and welfare benefits to active and retired participants. Total contributions made by the Company to these other multi-employer benefit plans were approximately $28,137, $27,965 and $26,932 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Defined Contribution Plans
The Company sponsors a 401(k) savings plan for certain eligible associates. Company contributions under that plan, which are based on specified percentages of associate contributions, were $1,132, $641 and $392 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Company also contributes to union sponsored defined contribution plans for certain eligible associates. Company contributions under these plans were $783, $836 and $817 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

COMMITMENTS and CONTINGENCIES |
NOTE 9 — COMMITMENTS and CONTINGENCIES Superstorm Sandy devastated our area on October 29, 2012 and resulted in the closure of almost all of our stores for periods of time ranging from a few hours to eight days. Village disposed of substantial amounts of perishable product and also incurred repair, labor and other costs as a result of the storm. The Company has property, casualty and business interruption insurance, subject to deductibles and coverage limits. During fiscal 2013, Wakefern began the process of working with our insurers to recover the damages and Village recorded estimated insurance recoveries of $4,913. In October 2013, Wakefern, as the policy holder, filed suit against the carrier seeking payment of the remaining claims due for all Wakefern members. The suit was the result of different interpretations of policy terms, including whether the policy's named storm deductible applied. On October 29, 2014, the Court issued their opinion on the matter in favor of the carrier. Based on this decision and its related impact, the Company concluded that recovery of further proceeds was not probable and recorded a $2,270 charge to operating and administrative expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 to write-off the remaining insurance receivable. Wakefern continues to pursue further recovery of uncollected amounts from the carrier and other sources. As a result, the Company received an additional $940 in insurance proceeds in February 2016 which was recognized as a reduction in Operating and administrative expense in fiscal 2016. Any further proceeds recovered will be recognized as they are received. As of July 29, 2017, Village has collected $3,583.
Approximately 91% of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. Contracts with the Company’s seven unions expire between July 2017 and July 2021. Approximately 6% of our associates are represented by unions whose contracts have already expired or expire within one year. Any work stoppages could have an adverse impact on our financial results.
The Company is involved in other litigation incidental to the normal course of business. Company management is of the opinion that the ultimate resolution of these legal proceedings should not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity of the Company.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)
|
12 Months Ended |
Jul. 29, 2017 |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
|
Nature of operations |
Village Super Market, Inc. (the “Company” or “Village”) operates a chain of 29 ShopRite supermarkets in New Jersey, eastern Pennsylvania and Maryland. The Company is a member of Wakefern Food Corporation ("Wakefern"), the nation's largest retailer-owned food cooperative and owner of the ShopRite name. This relationship provides Village many of the economies of scale in purchasing, distribution, private label products, advanced retail technology, marketing and advertising associated with chains of greater size and geographic coverage.
|
Principles of consolidation |
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Village Super Market, Inc. and its subsidiaries, which are wholly owned. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
|
Fiscal year |
The Company and its subsidiaries utilize a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the last Saturday in the month of July. Fiscal 2017 and 2015 contain 52 weeks. Fiscal 2016 contains 53 weeks.
|
Use of estimates |
In conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Some of the more significant estimates are patronage dividends, pension accounting assumptions, accounting for uncertain tax positions, accounting for contingencies and the impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
|
Industry segment |
The Company consists of one operating segment, the retail sale of food and nonfood products.
|
Revenue recognition |
Merchandise sales are recognized at the point of sale to the customer. Sales tax is excluded from revenue. Discounts provided to customers through ShopRite coupons and loyalty programs are recognized as a reduction of sales as the products are sold.
|
Cash and cash equivalents |
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Included in cash and cash equivalents are proceeds due from credit and debit card transactions, which typically settle within five business days, of $7,641 and $7,534 at July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016, respectively. Included in cash and cash equivalents at July 29, 2017 and July 30, 2016 are $60,037 and $63,609, respectively, of demand deposits invested at Wakefern at overnight money market rates.
|
Merchandise inventories |
Approximately 65% of merchandise inventories are stated at the lower of LIFO (last-in, first-out) cost or market. If the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method had been used, inventories would have been $14,410 and $14,522 higher than reported in fiscal 2017 and 2016, respectively. All other inventories are stated at the lower of FIFO cost or market.
|
Vendor allowances and rebates |
The Company receives vendor allowances and rebates, including the patronage dividend and amounts received as a pass through from Wakefern, related to the Company’s buying and merchandising activities. Vendor allowances and rebates are recognized as a reduction in cost of sales when the related merchandise is sold or when the required contractual terms are completed.
|
Property, equipment and fixtures |
Property, equipment and fixtures are recorded at cost. Interest cost incurred to finance construction is capitalized as part of the cost of the asset. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.
Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of thirty years for buildings, ten years for store fixtures and equipment, and three years for vehicles. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the related lease terms or the estimated useful lives of the related assets.
When assets are sold or retired, their cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated financial statements.
|
Investments |
The Company’s investments in its principal supplier, Wakefern, and a Wakefern affiliate, Insure-Rite, Ltd., are stated at cost (see Note 3). Village evaluates its investments in Wakefern and Insure-Rite, Ltd. for impairment through consideration of previous, current and projected levels of profit of those entities.
The Company’s 20%-50% investments in certain real estate partnerships are accounted for under the equity method. One of these partnerships is a variable interest entity which does not require consolidation as Village is not the primary beneficiary (see Note 6).
|
Store opening and closing costs |
All store opening costs are expensed as incurred. The Company records a liability for the future minimum lease payments and related costs for closed stores from the date of closure to the end of the remaining lease term, net of estimated cost recoveries that may be achieved through subletting, discounted using a risk-adjusted interest rate.
|
Leases |
Leases that meet certain criteria are classified as capital leases, and assets and liabilities are recorded at amounts equal to the lesser of the present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the leased properties at the inception of the respective leases. Such assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the related lease terms or the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Amounts representing interest expense relating to the lease obligations are recorded to effect constant rates of interest over the terms of the leases. Leases that do not qualify as capital leases are classified as operating leases. The Company accounts for rent holidays, escalating rent provisions, and construction allowances on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
For leases in which the Company is involved with the construction of the store, if Village concludes that it has substantially all of the risks of ownership during construction of the leased property and therefore is deemed the owner of the project for accounting purposes, an asset and related financing obligation are recorded for the costs paid by the landlord. Once construction is complete, the Company considers the requirements for sale-leaseback treatment. If the arrangement does not qualify for sale-leaseback treatment, the Company amortizes the financing obligation and depreciates the building over the lease term.
|
Advertising |
Advertising
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense was $11,824, $11,644 and $11,121 in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
|
Income taxes |
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company recognizes a tax benefit for uncertain tax positions if it is “more likely than not” that the position is sustainable, based on its technical merits. The tax benefit of a qualifying position is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon effective settlement with a taxing authority having full knowledge of all relevant information.
|
Fair value |
Fair value is defined as the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined using assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The fair value guidance establishes a three-level hierarchy to prioritize the inputs used in measuring fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Cash and cash equivalents, patronage dividend receivable, income taxes receivable/payable, accounts payable and accrued expenses are reflected in the consolidated financial statements at carrying value, which approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying values of the Company’s notes receivable from Wakefern approximate their fair value as interest is earned at variable market rates. As the Company’s investment in Wakefern can only be sold to Wakefern at amounts that approximate the Company’s cost, it is not practicable to estimate the fair value of such investment.
|
Long-lived assets |
The Company reviews long-lived assets, such as property, equipment and fixtures on an individual store basis for impairment when circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. Such review analyzes the undiscounted estimated future cash flows from such assets to determine if the carrying value of such assets are recoverable from their respective cash flows. If impairment is indicated, it is measured by comparing the fair value of the long-lived assets to their carrying value.
|
Goodwill |
Goodwill is tested at the end of each fiscal year, or more frequently if circumstances dictate, for impairment. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. Village operates as a single reporting unit for purposes of evaluating goodwill for impairment and primarily considers earnings multiples and other valuation techniques to measure fair value, in addition to the value of the Company’s stock.
|
Net income per share |
The Company has two classes of common stock. Class A common stock is entitled to cash dividends as declared 54% greater than those paid on Class B common stock. Shares of Class B common stock are convertible on a share-for-share basis for Class A common stock at any time.
The Company utilizes the two-class method of computing and presenting net income per share. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that calculates basic and diluted net income per share for each class of common stock separately based on dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Under the two-class method, Class A common stock is assumed to receive a 54% greater participation in undistributed earnings than Class B common stock, in accordance with the classes' respective dividend rights. Unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends are treated as participating securities and therefore included in computing net income per share using the two-class method.
Diluted net income per share for Class A common stock is calculated utilizing the if-converted method, which assumes the conversion of all shares of Class B common stock to Class A common stock on a share-for-share basis, as this method is more dilutive than the two-class method. Diluted net income per share for Class B common stock does not assume conversion of Class B common stock to shares of Class A common stock.
|
Share-based compensation |
All share-based payments to employees are recognized in the financial statements as compensation costs based on the fair market value on the date of the grant.
|
Benefit plans |
The Company recognizes the funded status of its Company sponsored retirement plans on the consolidated balance sheet. Actuarial gains or losses, curtailments, prior service costs or credits, and transition obligations not previously recognized are recorded as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. The Company uses July 31 as the measurement date for these plans.
The Company also contributes to several multi-employer pension plans under the terms of collective bargaining agreements that cover certain union-represented employees. Pension expense for these plans is recognized as contributions are made.
|
Recently issued accounting standards |
Recently issued accounting standards In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which provides guidance for revenue recognition. The standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company expects to adopt the new standard in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending July 27, 2019. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of ASU No. 2014-09 on its financial statements. The Company does not anticipate it will have a material impact on its recognition of revenue at the point of sale, and is continuing to identify and assess transactions that may be affected by the new standard. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases." This guidance requires lessees to recognize lease liabilities and a right-of-use asset for all leases with terms of more than 12 months on the balance sheet. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018, with earlier adoption permitted. The Company expects to adopt the new standard in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending July 25, 2020. ASU 2016-02 requires a modified retrospective approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after the date of initial adoption. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 will result in a significant increase to the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets for lease liabilities and right-of-use assets, and the Company is currently evaluating the other effects of adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, "Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting." The guidance changes several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including accounting for income taxes, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, with earlier adoption permitted. The Company will adopt the new standard in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending July 28, 2018. The Company does not anticipate it will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

- DefinitionDisclosure of accounting policy for revenue recognition. If the entity has different policies for different types of revenue transactions, the policy for each material type of transaction is generally disclosed. If a sales transaction has multiple element arrangements (for example, delivery of multiple products, services or the rights to use assets) the disclosure may indicate the accounting policy for each unit of accounting as well as how units of accounting are determined and valued. The disclosure may encompass important judgment as to appropriateness of principles related to recognition of revenue. The disclosure also may indicate the entity's treatment of any unearned or deferred revenue that arises from the transaction.

Schedule of Share-based Payment Award, Stock Options, Valuation Assumptions |
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model using the weighted-average assumptions in the following table. The Company uses historical data for similar groups of employees in order to estimate the expected life of options granted. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock for a period of years corresponding to the expected life of the option. The risk free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the time of grant for securities with a maturity period similar to the expected life of the option. | | | | | | | | 2016 | | 2015 | Expected life (years) | 5.0 |

- DefinitionNumber of operating segments. An operating segment is a component of an enterprise: (a) that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the same enterprise), (b) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the enterprise's chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and (c) for which discrete financial information is available. An operating segment may engage in business activities for which it has yet to earn revenues, for example, start-up operations may be operating segments before earning revenues.

- DefinitionThe increases or decreases in lease payments that result from changes occurring after the inception of the lease in the factors (other than the passage of time) on which lease payments are based, except that any escalation of minimum lease payments relating to increases in construction or acquisition cost of the leased property or for increases in some measure of cost or value during the construction or preconstruction period, are excluded from contingent rentals. Contingent rentals also may include amounts for which the triggering events have not yet occurred or the specified targets for which have not yet been achieved (such as sales based percentage rent), but which events are considered probable of occurring or which specified targets are considered probable of being achieved.

- DefinitionFor defined benefit pension plans, the actuarial present value of benefits (whether vested or nonvested) attributed by the pension benefit formula to employee service rendered before a specified date and based on employee service and compensation (if applicable) before that date. The accumulated benefit obligation differs from the projected benefit obligation in that it includes no assumption about future compensation levels. For plans with flat-benefit or nonpay-related pension benefit formulas, the accumulated benefit obligation and the projected benefit obligation are the same.
