Image: Kroger’s shares have been choppy during the past couple years. 

Kroger reaffirmed its full-year 2024 guidance. The company expects identical-store without fuel of 0.25%-1.75%, adjusted FIFO operating profit of $4.6-$4.8 billion and adjusted net earnings per diluted share of $4.30-$4.50. Adjusted free cash flow is targeted in the range of $2.5-$2.7 billion on capital expenditures of $3.4-$3.6 billion for the year. Kroger ended the quarter with ~$12.2 billion in debt and $345 million in cash. All things considered, we liked Kroger’s report, but uncertainties regarding its deal with Albertsons coupled with a large net debt position leave us on the sidelines. Shares yield ~2.2% at the time of this writing.
