2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied upon the transfer of goods to the customer, which occurs at the point of sale, and payment from customers is also due at the time of sale. Proceeds from the sale of gift cards are recorded as a liability at the time of sale and recognized as sales when they are redeemed by the customer and the performance obligation is satisfied by the Company. The Company’s gift cards do not expire. Based on historical redemption rates, a small and relatively stable percentage of gift cards will never be redeemed, referred to as "breakage." Estimated breakage revenue is recognized over time in proportion to actual gift card redemptions and was not material in any period presented. A summary of the activity and balances in the gift card liability, net is as follows:


	Twenty-six weeks ended
	June 30, 2024		July 2, 2023
Beginning Balance	$	10,566	$	10,906
Gift cards issued during the period but not redeemed(1)	1,590		1,621
Revenue recognized from beginning liability	(3,330)		(3,562)
Ending Balance	$	8,826	$	8,965

(1)net of estimated breakage

The nature of goods the Company transfers to customers at the point of sale are inventories, consisting of merchandise purchased for resale.

The Company does not have any material contract assets or receivables from contracts with customers, any revenue recognized in the current period from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods, any contract performance obligations, or any material costs to obtain or fulfill a contract as of June 30, 2024.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash relates to the Company's defined benefit plan forfeitures and the Company's healthcare, general liability and workers’ compensation plan benefits of $2.2 million and $2.1 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. These balances are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Segment Reporting – Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU no. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280) Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures." The amendments in this update increase required disclosures about a public entity's reportable segments, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). In addition, ASU 2023-07 will require the Company to disclose the title and position of its CODM. The guidance will be effective beginning with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year 2024 and for interim periods starting in the first quarter of its fiscal year 2025. Early adoption is permitted, and the guidance is required to be applied retrospectively. The Company expects this update to impact its segment disclosures but does not anticipate that this update will impact its results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

Income Taxes – Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU no. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures." The amendments in this update enhance a public entity's annual income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The guidance will be effective for the Company for its fiscal year 2025. Early adoption is permitted, and the guidance should be applied prospectively, with an option to apply it retrospectively. The Company expects this update to impact its income tax disclosures but does not anticipate that this update will impact its results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

No other new accounting pronouncements issued or effective during the thirteen weeks ended June 30, 2024 had, or are expected to have, a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

3. Fair Value Measurements

The Company records its financial assets and liabilities in accordance with the framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP. This framework establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.

Level 3: Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

Fair value measurements of nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities are primarily used in the impairment analysis of goodwill, intangible assets and long-lived assets.

The Company did not have any financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2024. The following table presents the fair value hierarchy for the Company’s financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2023:






December 31, 2023	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Long-term debt	$	—	$	125,000	$	—	$	125,000
Total financial liabilities	$	—	$	125,000	$	—	$	125,000

The determination of fair values of certain tangible and intangible assets for purposes of the Company’s goodwill or long-lived asset impairment evaluation is based upon Level 3 inputs. When necessary, the Company uses third party market data and market participant assumptions to derive the fair value of its asset groupings, which primarily include right-of-use lease assets and property and equipment.

Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and accrued salaries and benefits approximate fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. Based on comparable open market transactions, the fair value of the long-term debt approximated carrying value as of December 31, 2023.

The Credit Agreement provides for a $70.0 million letter of credit sub-facility (the "Letter of Credit Sub-Facility") and a $50.0 million swingline facility. Letters of credit issued under the Credit Agreement reduce the capacity of Intermediate Holdings to borrow under the Revolving Credit Facility. Letters of credit totaling $19.6 million have been issued as of June 30, 2024 under the Letter of Credit Sub-Facility, primarily to support the Company’s insurance programs.

Guarantees

Obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Company and substantially all of its existing and future wholly-owned material domestic subsidiaries, and are secured by first-priority security interests in substantially all of the assets of the Company, Intermediate Holdings, and the subsidiary guarantors, including, without limitation, a pledge by the Company of its equity interest in Intermediate Holdings.

Interest and Fees

Loans under the Credit Agreement will initially bear interest, at the Company's option, either at the Term SOFR (with a floor of 0.00%) plus a 0.10% SOFR adjustment and 1.00% per annum or base rate (with a floor of 0.00%) plus 0.00% per annum. The interest rate margins are subject to upward adjustments pursuant to a pricing grid based on the Company’s total net leverage ratio as set forth in the Credit Agreement and to upward or downward adjustments of up to 0.05% based upon the achievement of certain diversity and sustainability-linked metric thresholds, as set forth in the Credit Agreement.

Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Company is obligated to pay a commitment fee on the available unused amount of the commitments, which commitment fee ranges between 0.10% to 0.225% per annum, pursuant to a pricing grid based on the Company’s total net leverage ratio. The commitment fees are subject to upward or downward adjustments of up to 0.01% based upon the achievement of certain diversity and sustainability-linked metric thresholds, as set forth in the Credit Agreement.

As of June 30, 2024, loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement bore interest at Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus a 0.10% SOFR adjustment and 0.95% per annum. The Company had no loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2024.

In addition, the Credit Agreement requires that the Company and its subsidiaries maintain a maximum total net leverage ratio not to exceed 3.75 to 1.00, which ratio may be increased from time to time in connection with certain permitted acquisitions pursuant to conditions as set forth in the Credit Agreement, and a minimum interest coverage ratio not to be less than 3.00 to 1.00. Each of these covenants is tested as of the last day of each fiscal quarter.

5. Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate increased to 25.2% for the thirteen weeks ended June 30, 2024, compared to 24.7% for the thirteen weeks ended July 2, 2023. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to a prior period refund of interest from amended returns, partially offset by a tempered impact to the effective tax rate for executive compensation due to increased pre-tax income. The income tax effect resulting from excess tax benefits of share-based payment awards was $0.6 million and $0.4 million for the thirteen weeks ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, respectively.

The Company’s effective tax rate decreased to 23.8% for the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2024, compared to 24.0% for the twenty-six weeks ended July 2, 2023. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to an increase in excess tax benefits associated with share-based payment awards and a tempered impact to the effective tax rate for executive compensation due to increased pre-tax income, partially offset by a prior period refund of interest from amended returns. The income tax effect resulting from excess tax benefits of share-based payment awards was $5.1 million and $3.0 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, respectively.

The Company files income tax returns for federal purposes and in many states. The Company’s tax filings remain subject to examination by applicable tax authorities for a certain length of time, generally three years, following the tax year to which those filings relate.

6. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is exposed to claims and litigation matters arising in the ordinary course of business and uses various methods to resolve these matters that are believed to best serve the interests of the Company’s stakeholders. The Company’s primary contingencies are associated with self-insurance obligations and litigation matters. Self-insurance liabilities require significant judgment and actual claim settlements and associated expenses may differ from the Company’s current provisions for loss.

7. Stockholders’ Equity

Share Repurchases

On May 22, 2024, the Company's board of directors authorized a new $600 million share repurchase program for its common stock. This authorization replaced the Company's then-existing share repurchase authorization of $600 million that was due to expire on December 31, 2024, of which $119.3 million remained available upon its replacement, and under which no further shares may be repurchased. The following table outlines the common stock share repurchase programs authorized by the Company’s board of directors and the related repurchase activity and available authorization as of June 30, 2024:


Effective date	Expiration date	Amount authorized		Cost of repurchases		Authorization available
March 2, 2022	December 31, 2024	$	600,000	$	480,715	$	—
May 22, 2024	May 22, 2027	$	600,000	$	15,393	$	584,607

The shares under the Company’s repurchase programs may be purchased on a discretionary basis from time to time through the applicable expiration date, subject to general business and market conditions and other investment opportunities, through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, or other means, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. The board’s authorization of the share repurchase programs does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock, and the repurchase programs may be commenced, suspended, or discontinued at any time.

Share repurchase activity under the Company’s repurchase programs for the periods indicated was as follows (total cost in thousands):


	Thirteen weeks ended				Twenty-six weeks ended
	June 30, 2024		July 2, 2023		June 30, 2024		July 2, 2023
Number of common shares acquired	639,538		1,437,932		1,597,318		4,476,343
Average price per common share acquired	$	70.07	$	35.10	$	65.86	$	33.43
Total cost of common shares acquired	$	44,812	$	50,470	$	105,192	$	149,641

Shares purchased under the Company’s repurchase programs were subsequently retired and the excess of the repurchase price over par value was charged to retained earnings. The cost of common shares repurchased included the 1% excise tax imposed as part of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.

Subsequent to June 30, 2024 and through the date of this filing, the Company repurchased an additional 0.1 million shares of common stock for $7.4 million, excluding excise tax.

8. Net Income Per Share

The computation of basic net income per share is based on the number of weighted average shares outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted net income per share includes the dilutive effect of share equivalents consisting of incremental shares deemed outstanding from the assumed exercise of options and unvested restricted stock units ("RSUs"). Performance share awards ("PSAs") are included in the computation of diluted net income per share only to the extent that the underlying performance conditions are satisfied prior to the end of the reporting period or would be satisfied if the end of the reporting period were the end of the related performance period, and if the effect would be dilutive.

For the thirteen weeks ended June 30, 2024, the Company had 0.1 million options and 0.4 million PSAs outstanding which were excluded from the computation of diluted net income per share as those awards would have been antidilutive or were performance awards with performance conditions not yet deemed met.

2013 Incentive Plan

Prior to the adoption of the 2022 Incentive Plan, the 2013 Incentive Plan served as the umbrella plan for the Company’s share-based and cash-based incentive compensation programs for its directors, officers and other team members. Upon stockholder approval of the 2022 Incentive Plan on May 25, 2022, no further awards will be granted under the 2013 Incentive Plan, but awards outstanding under the 2013 Incentive Plan will remain outstanding in accordance with their terms and the terms of the 2013 Incentive Plan.

Stock Options

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of options at grant date. Options vest in accordance with the terms set forth in the grant letter.

RSUs

The fair value of RSUs is based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. RSUs generally vest annually over a period of two or three years from the grant date.

PSAs

PSAs granted in 2020 were subject to the Company achieving certain earnings before taxes (“EBT”) performance targets for the 2022 fiscal year. The criteria was based on a range of performance targets in which grantees may earn 0% to 200% of the base number of awards granted. The performance conditions with respect to fiscal year 2022 EBT were deemed to have been met, and the PSAs vested at the maximum pay out level on the third anniversary of the grant date (March 2023). There were no outstanding 2020 PSAs as of June 30, 2024.

PSAs granted in 2023 are subject to the Company achieving certain EBIT performance targets for the 2025 fiscal year. The criteria is based on a range of performance targets in which grantees may earn 0% to 200% of the base number of awards granted. If performance conditions are met, the applicable number of performance shares will vest on the third anniversary of the grant date (March 2026).

PSAs granted in 2024 are subject to the Company achieving certain EBIT performance targets for the 2026 fiscal year. The criteria is based on a range of performance targets in which grantees may earn 0% to 200% of the base number of awards granted.

12. Store Closures

In February 2023, the Company's board of directors approved the closing of 11 stores, all of which were closed during 2023. These stores, on average, were approximately 30% larger than the Company's current prototype format and were underperforming financially. The closure of these stores resulted in a charge of $27.8 million during the twenty-six weeks ended July 2, 2023 related to the impairment of leasehold improvements and right-of-use assets and was reflected in Store closure and other costs, net on the consolidated statements of income. The impairment charge represented the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value of each store's asset group. Accelerated depreciation on the closed stores' assets during 2023 was $5.9 million, and was reflected in Depreciation and amortization on the consolidated statements of income. Severance expense during 2023 was immaterial.

13. Business Combination

On March 20, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of Ronald Cohn, Inc., a corporation that owned two stores located in California operating under the ‘Sprouts Farmers Market’ name pursuant to a legacy trademark license arrangement. The aggregate consideration paid in the transaction consisted of 0.6 million of the Company’s common shares valued at $18.1 million using the closing price of the Company's common stock on March 20, 2023 and cash consideration of $13.0 million.

The Company accounted for this transaction as a business combination in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting, which requires that the purchase price be allocated to the assets and liabilities acquired based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Acquisition-related costs were immaterial and were expensed as incurred. The financial results of the acquired stores have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The acquired stores' results of operations were not material to the Company's consolidated results.

The net purchase price was allocated to the net tangible assets of ($4.9) million and a reacquired right intangible asset of $23.1 million based on their fair values on the acquisition date. The remaining unallocated net purchase price of $12.9 million was recorded as goodwill. Goodwill represents the future economic benefits to the Company from the acquisition, which include the Company's ability to fully control the Sprouts Farmers Market brand by termination of the legacy trademark license agreement and allowing further expansion opportunities in Southern California. The goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The final allocation of the purchase price consideration to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been completed and included an immaterial amount of measurement period adjustments.

Business Overview

Sprouts Farmers Market offers a unique specialty grocery experience featuring an open layout with fresh produce at the heart of the store. Sprouts inspires wellness naturally with a carefully curated assortment of better-for-you products paired with purpose-driven people. We continue to bring the latest in wholesome, innovative products made with lifestyle-friendly ingredients such as organic, plant-based and gluten-free. From our founding in 2002, we have grown rapidly, significantly increasing our sales, store count and profitability. Headquartered in Phoenix with 419 stores in 23 states as of June 30, 2024, we are one of the largest and fastest growing specialty retailers of fresh, natural and organic food in the United States.

Our Growth Strategy

We continue to execute on our long-term growth strategy that we believe is transforming our company and driving profitable growth, focusing on the following areas:

•Win with Target Customers. We are focusing attention on our target customers, identified through research as ‘health enthusiasts’ and ‘selective shoppers’, where there is ample opportunity to gain share within these customer segments. We believe our business can continue to grow by leveraging existing strengths in a unique assortment of better-for-you, quality products and by providing a full omnichannel offering through delivery or pickup via our website or the Sprouts app.

•Update Format and Expand in Select Markets. We are delivering unique smaller stores with expectations of stronger returns, while maintaining the approachable, fresh-focused farmer’s market heritage Sprouts is known for. From 2021 through June 30, 2024, we opened 54 new stores and remodeled one store featuring our new format. Our geographic store expansion and new store placement will intersect where our target customers live, in markets with growth potential and supply chain support, which we believe will provide a long runway of approximately 10% annual unit growth.

•Create an Advantaged Fresh Supply Chain. We believe our network of fresh distribution centers can drive efficiencies across the chain and support our growth plans. To further deliver on our fresh commitment and reputation, as well as to increase our local offerings and improve financial results, we aspire to ultimately position fresh distribution centers within a 250-mile radius of stores. Following the opening of two fresh distribution centers in fiscal 2021 and the relocation of our Southern California distribution center, closure of our Georgia distribution center and partnership with a third-party fresh distribution center in the Northeast in fiscal 2023, we are better leveraging our existing distribution center capacity, and approximately 80% of our stores were within 250 miles of a distribution center as of June 30, 2024.

•Refine Brand and Marketing Approach. We believe we are elevating our national brand recognition and positioning by telling our unique brand story rooted in product innovation and differentiation. We are increasing our use of data analytics and insights. We believe this data-driven intelligence will increase customer engagement through personalization efforts with digital and social connections to drive additional sales growth and loyalty.

•Inspire and Engage Our Talent to Create a Best Place to Work. Subsequent to the initial launch of our long-term growth strategy, we have added the focus area of inspiring and engaging our talent through our culture, acquisition and development and total rewards program to attract and retain the talent we believe we need to execute on our strategic goals and transform our company into a premier place to work.

Table of Contents

•Deliver on Financial Targets and Box Economics. We are measuring and reporting on the success of this strategy against a number of long-term financial and operational targets. With the implementation of our strategy beginning in 2020, we have significantly improved our margin structure above our 2019 baseline.

Income tax provision

Income tax provision differed from the amounts computed by applying the U.S. federal income tax rate to pretax income as a result of the following:


	Thirteen weeks ended
	June 30, 2024		July 2, 2023
Federal statutory rate	21.0	%	21.0	%

The effective tax rate increased to 25.2% for the thirteen weeks ended June 30, 2024 from 24.7% for the thirteen weeks ended July 2, 2023. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to a prior period refund of interest from amended returns, partially offset by a tempered impact to the effective tax rate for executive compensation due to increased pre-tax income.

Return on Invested Capital

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, we provide information regarding Return on Invested Capital (referred to as “ROIC”) as additional information about our operating results. ROIC is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be reviewed in isolation or considered as a substitute for our financial results as reported in accordance with GAAP. ROIC is an important measure used by management to evaluate our investment returns on capital and provides a meaningful measure of the effectiveness of our capital allocation over time.

We define ROIC as net operating profit after tax (referred to as “NOPAT”), including the effect of capitalized operating leases, divided by average invested capital. Operating lease interest represents the add-back to operating income driven by the hypothetical interest expense we would incur if the property under our operating leases were owned or accounted for as a finance lease. The assumed ownership and associated interest expense are calculated using the discount rate for each lease as recorded as a component of rent expense within selling, general and administrative expenses. Invested capital reflects a trailing four-quarter average.

As numerous methods exist for calculating ROIC, our method may differ from methods used by other companies to calculate their ROIC. It is important to understand the methods and the differences in those methods used by other companies to calculate their ROIC before comparing our ROIC to that of other companies.

Our calculation of ROIC for the fiscal periods indicated was as follows:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following table sets forth the major sources and uses of cash for each of the periods set forth below, as well as our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at the end of each period (in thousands):


	Twenty-six weeks ended
	June 30, 2024		July 2, 2023
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at end of period	$	179,475	$	261,658
Cash flows from operating activities	$	311,295	$	294,781
Cash flows used in investing activities	$	(108,925)	$	(111,725)
Cash flows used in financing activities	$	(226,765)	$	(216,590)

We have generally financed our operations principally through cash generated from operations and borrowings under our credit facilities. Our primary uses of cash are for purchases of inventory, operating expenses, capital expenditures primarily for opening new stores, remodels and maintenance, repurchases of our common stock and debt service. Our principal contractual obligations and commitments consist of obligations under our Credit Agreement, interest on our Credit Agreement, operating and finance leases, purchase commitments and self-insurance liabilities. Our operating and finance leases for the rental of land, buildings, and for rental of facilities and equipment expire or become subject to renewal clauses at various dates through 2046. We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, and cash anticipated to be generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for at least the next 12 months. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including new store openings, remodel and maintenance capital expenditures at existing stores, store initiatives and other corporate capital expenditures and activities. Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash position benefits from the fact that we generally collect cash from sales to customers the same day or, in the case of credit or debit card transactions, within days from the related sale.

Operating Activities

Cash flows from operating activities increased $16.5 million to $311.3 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2024 compared to $294.8 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 2, 2023. The increase in cash flows from operating activities was primarily a result of higher net income adjusted for non-cash items of $50.2 million, partially offset by a decrease in cash flows provided by operating activities from changes in working capital of $16.8 million and higher payments on our operating lease liabilities of $15.0 million due to growth.

Cash flows provided by operating activities from changes in working capital were $36.4 million in the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2024 compared to $53.2 million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 2, 2023. This $16.8 million decrease in cash flow from changes in working capital was primarily attributable to a $33.9 million change in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, primarily due to timing differences of payments for goods and services, partially offset by a $10.4 million change in accounts receivable driven by the timing of collections. Certain other immaterial items combined to result in an additional $6.7 million net increase in cash flows from changes in working capital.

Table of Contents

Investing Activities

Cash flows used in investing activities consist primarily of capital expenditures in new stores, including leasehold improvements and store equipment, capital expenditures to maintain the appearance of our stores, sales enhancing initiatives and other corporate investments as well as cash outlays for acquisitions. Cash flows used in investing activities were $108.9 million and $111.7 million, for the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2024 and twenty-six weeks ended July 2, 2023, respectively. Cash flows used in investing activities during the twenty-six weeks ended July 2, 2023 included our acquisition of Ronald Cohn, Inc. See Note 13, "Business Combination" of our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

We expect capital expenditures to be in the range of $225 - 245 million in 2024, including expenditures incurred to date, net of estimated landlord tenant improvement allowances, primarily to fund investments in new stores, remodels, maintenance capital expenditures and corporate capital expenditures. We expect to fund our capital expenditures with cash on hand and cash generated from operating activities.

Financing Activities

Cash flows used in financing activities were $226.8 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2024 compared to $216.6 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 2, 2023. During the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2024, cash flows used in financing activities primarily consisted of $125.0 million in payments on our Credit Agreement and $104.5 million for stock repurchases, partially offset by $3.3 million in proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

During the twenty-six weeks ended July 2, 2023, cash flows used in financing activities primarily consisted of $148.3 million for stock repurchases and $75.0 million in payments on our Credit Agreement, partially offset by $7.2 million in proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

Long-Term Debt and Credit Facilities

The Company had no long-term debt outstanding as of June 30, 2024. Long-term debt outstanding as of December 31, 2023 was $125.0 million.

See Note 4, “Long-Term Debt and Finance Lease Liabilities” of our unaudited consolidated financial statements for a description of our Credit Agreement and our Former Credit Facility (each as defined therein).

Shares purchased under our repurchase programs were subsequently retired and the excess of the repurchase price over par value was charged to retained earnings. The cost of common shares repurchased included the 1% excise tax imposed as part of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.

Subsequent to June 30, 2024 and through the date of this filing, we repurchased an additional 0.1 million shares of common stock for $7.4 million, excluding excise tax.

Contractual Obligations

Our principal contractual obligations and commitments arising in the normal course of business consist of obligations under our Credit Agreement, interest on our Credit Agreement, operating and finance leases, purchase commitments and self-insurance liabilities. Except as otherwise disclosed in Note 4, “Long-Term Debt and Finance Lease Liabilities” of our unaudited consolidated financial statements, there have been no material changes outside the normal course of business as of June 30, 2024 in our contractual obligations and commitments from those reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

Impact of Inflation and Deflation

Inflation and deflation in the prices of food and other products we sell may periodically affect our sales, gross profit and gross margin. Food inflation, when combined with reduced consumer spending, could also reduce sales, gross profit margins and comparable store sales. Inflationary pressures on compensation, utilities, commodities, equipment and supplies may also impact our profitability. Food deflation or declining levels of inflation across multiple categories, particularly in produce, could reduce sales growth and earnings, particularly if our competitors react by lowering their retail pricing and expanding their promotional activities, which can lead to retail deflation higher than cost deflation that could reduce our sales, gross profit margins and comparable store sales. The short-term impact of inflation and deflation is largely dependent on whether or not the effects are passed through to our customers, which is subject to competitive market conditions.

Food inflation and deflation is affected by a variety of factors and our determination of whether to pass on the effects of inflation or deflation to our customers is made in conjunction with our overall pricing and marketing strategies, as well as our competitors’ responses. Although we may experience periodic effects on sales, gross profit, gross margins and cash flows as a result of changing prices, we do not expect the effect of inflation or deflation to have a material impact on our ability to execute our long-term business strategy.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. These principles require us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales and expenses, cash flow and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Our critical accounting estimates include inventories, lease assumptions, self-insurance reserves, goodwill and intangible assets, impairment of long-lived assets, and income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and our actual results, our future financial statements will be affected.

Table of Contents

There have been no substantial changes to these estimates, or the policies related to them during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2024. For a full discussion of these estimates and policies, see “Critical Accounting Estimates” in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

As described in Note 4, “Long-Term Debt and Finance Lease Liabilities” to our unaudited consolidated financial statements located elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our Credit Agreement bears interest at a rate based in part on SOFR. Accordingly, we could be exposed to fluctuations in interest rates. As of June 30, 2024, we had no outstanding borrowings under our Credit Agreement.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures under the Exchange Act as of June 30, 2024, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the quarterly period ended June 30, 2024, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Table of Contents

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

From time to time we are a party to legal proceedings, including matters involving personnel and employment issues, product liability, personal injury, intellectual property and other proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, which have not resulted in any material losses to date. Although management does not expect that the outcome in these proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations, litigation is inherently unpredictable. Therefore, we could incur judgments or enter into settlements of claims that could materially impact our results.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Certain factors may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties referenced below, together with all of the other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including our consolidated financial statements and related notes. Any of those risks could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results, financial condition, or prospects and cause the value of our common stock to decline, which could cause you to lose all or part of your investment.

There have been no material changes to the Risk Factors described under “Part I – Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

Item 5. Other Information.

Rule 10b5-1 Trading Arrangements

On May 21, 2024, Stacy Hilgendorf, our Vice President - Controller and Principal Accounting Officer, terminated a written plan for the sale of our common stock that was intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act (a “Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plan”). The Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plan was entered into on March 11, 2024 and provided for the sale of up to 4,951 shares of the Company's common stock beginning June 10, 2024 through March 11, 2025.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes The Company’s effective tax rate increased to 25.2% for the thirteen weeks ended June 30, 2024, compared to 24.7% for the thirteen weeks ended July 2, 2023. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to a prior period refund of interest from amended returns, partially offset by a tempered impact to the effective tax rate for executive compensation due to increased pre-tax income. The income tax effect resulting from excess tax benefits of share-based payment awards was $0.6 million and $0.4 million for the thirteen weeks ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate decreased to 23.8% for the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2024, compared to 24.0% for the twenty-six weeks ended July 2, 2023. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to an increase in excess tax benefits associated with share-based payment awards and a tempered impact to the effective tax rate for executive compensation due to increased pre-tax income, partially offset by a prior period refund of interest from amended returns. The income tax effect resulting from excess tax benefits of share-based payment awards was $5.1 million and $3.0 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, respectively.

Store Closures [Abstract]
Store Closures	Store ClosuresIn February 2023, the Company's board of directors approved the closing of 11 stores, all of which were closed during 2023. These stores, on average, were approximately 30% larger than the Company's current prototype format and were underperforming financially. The closure of these stores resulted in a charge of $27.8 million during the twenty-six weeks ended July 2, 2023 related to the impairment of leasehold improvements and right-of-use assets and was reflected in Store closure and other costs, net on the consolidated statements of income. The impairment charge represented the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value of each store's asset group. Accelerated depreciation on the closed stores' assets during 2023 was $5.9 million, and was reflected in Depreciation and amortization on the consolidated statements of income. Severance expense during 2023 was immaterial.

Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]
Business Combination	Business Combination On March 20, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of Ronald Cohn, Inc., a corporation that owned two stores located in California operating under the ‘Sprouts Farmers Market’ name pursuant to a legacy trademark license arrangement. The aggregate consideration paid in the transaction consisted of 0.6 million of the Company’s common shares valued at $18.1 million using the closing price of the Company's common stock on March 20, 2023 and cash consideration of $13.0 million. The Company accounted for this transaction as a business combination in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting, which requires that the purchase price be allocated to the assets and liabilities acquired based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Acquisition-related costs were immaterial and were expensed as incurred. The financial results of the acquired stores have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The acquired stores' results of operations were not material to the Company's consolidated results. The net purchase price was allocated to the net tangible assets of ($4.9) million and a reacquired right intangible asset of $23.1 million based on their fair values on the acquisition date. The remaining unallocated net purchase price of $12.9 million was recorded as goodwill. Goodwill represents the future economic benefits to the Company from the acquisition, which include the Company's ability to fully control the Sprouts Farmers Market brand by termination of the legacy trademark license agreement and allowing further expansion opportunities in Southern California. The goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The final allocation of the purchase price consideration to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been completed and included an immaterial amount of measurement period adjustments.
