Publix Reports Third Quarter 2024 Results and Stock Price
LAKELAND, Fla., Nov. 1, 2024 Publix’s sales for the three months ended Sept. 28, 2024 were $14.6 billion, a 4.9% increase from $14 billion in 2023. Comparable store sales for the three months ended Sept. 28, 2024 increased 3.4%. The company estimates sales for the three months ended Sept. 28, 2024 increased 0.6% due to the impact of Hurricane Helene.
Net earnings for the three months ended Sept. 28, 2024 were $1.1 billion, compared to $833 million in 2023, an increase of 31.7%. Earnings per share for the three months ended Sept. 28, 2024 increased to $0.33 per share, up from $0.25 per share in 2023. Excluding the impact of net unrealized gains on equity securities in 2024 and net unrealized losses on equity securities in 2023, net earnings for the three months ended Sept. 28, 2024 would have been $930 million, compared to $940 million in 2023, a decrease of 1.1%. Earnings per share for the three months ended Sept. 28, 2024 and Sept. 30, 2023 would have been $0.28 per share.
Publix’s sales for the nine months ended Sept. 28, 2024 were $44.2 billion, a 4.3% increase from $42.4 billion in 2023. Comparable store sales for the nine months ended Sept. 28, 2024 increased 2.5%.
Net earnings for the nine months ended Sept. 28, 2024 were $3.4 billion, compared to $3.2 billion in 2023, an increase of 8.3%. Earnings per share for the nine months ended Sept. 28, 2024 increased to $1.04 per share, up from $0.95 per share in 2023. Excluding the impact of net unrealized gains on equity securities in 2024 and 2023, net earnings for the nine months ended Sept. 28, 2024 would have been $2.9 billion, compared to $3 billion in 2023, a decrease of 3%. Earnings per share for the nine months ended Sept. 28, 2024 would have been $0.90 per share, compared to $0.91 per share in 2023.
These amounts are based on unaudited financial statements that will be filed today with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and made available on the company’s website at corporate.publix.com/stock.
Effective Nov. 1, 2024, Publix’s stock price increased from $16.46 per share to $18.05 per share. Publix stock is not publicly traded and is made available for sale only to current Publix associates and members of its board of directors.
“During the last several weeks, many of our associates and customers have faced difficult times with Hurricanes Helene and Milton,” said Publix CEO Kevin Murphy. “I’m so proud of our associates for the comfort they bring to our customers and their fellow associates.”
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to reporting financial results for the three and nine months ended Sept. 28, 2024 and Sept. 30, 2023 in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the company presents net earnings and earnings per share excluding the impact of equity securities being measured at fair value with net unrealized gains and losses from changes in the fair value recognized in earnings (fair value adjustment). These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP. The company excludes the impact of the fair value adjustment since it is primarily due to temporary equity market fluctuations that do not reflect the company’s operations. The company believes this information is useful in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of operations.
Following is a reconciliation of net earnings to net earnings excluding the impact of the fair value adjustment for the three months ended Sept. 28, 2024 and Sept. 30, 2023:
