CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report, as well as our other public filings or public statements, include forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are often identified by terms and phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “intend,” “estimate,” “expect,” “continue,” “should,” “could,” “may,” “plan,” “project,” “predict,” “will” and similar expressions and include references to assumptions and relate to our future prospects, developments and business strategies.

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

●

the impact of widespread health developments, including the continued impact of the global coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, and the responses thereto (such as voluntary and in some cases, mandatory quarantines as well as shut downs and other restrictions on travel and commercial, social and other activities) which could materially and adversely affect, among other things, the economic and financial markets and labor resources of the locations in which we operate, access to credit, our front-end and pharmaceutical operations, supply chain, associates and executive and administrative personnel. These widespread health developments could also materially and adversely affect our third-party service providers, including suppliers, vendors and business partners, and customers and the demand for our products. These developments could result in recessionary economic conditions which could negatively impact our front-end sales and e-commerce business.

●

the risk that changes in federal or state laws or regulations, including the Health Care Education Affordability Reconciliation Act, the repeal of all or part of the Patient Protection and the Affordable Care Act (or "ACA") and any regulations enacted thereunder may occur;

●

the impact of the loss of one or more major third party payor ~~contracts;~~

●

the inability to complete the sale of the remaining distribution center to Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc. (“WBA”), due to the failure to satisfy the minimal remaining conditions applicable only to the distribution center being transferred at such distribution center closing;

●

contracts and the risk that ~~we will not be able to meet our obligations under our Transition Services Agreement (“TSA”) with WBA, which could expose us to significant financial penalties;~~

●

~~the risk that we cannot reduce our selling, general~~providers and ~~administrative expenses enough to offset lost income from the TSA as the amount of stores serviced under the agreement decreases;~~state contract changes may occur;

●

the risk that we may need to take further impairment charges if our future results do not meet our expectations;

●

risks related to compromises of our information or payment systems or unauthorized access to confidential or personal information of our associates or customers;

●

our ability to maintain our current pharmacy services business and obtain new pharmacy services business, including maintaining renewals of expiring contracts, avoiding contract termination rights that may permit certain of our clients to terminate their contracts prior to their expiration, early price renegotiations prior to contract expirations and the risk that we cannot meet client guarantees;

1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and therefore do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete annual financial statements. The accompanying financial information reflects all adjustments which are of a recurring nature and, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. The results of operations for the thirteen ~~and thirty-nine~~ week ~~periods~~period ended ~~November~~May 30, ~~2019~~2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Rite Aid Corporation (“Rite Aid”) and Subsidiaries (together with Rite Aid, the “Company”) Fiscal ~~2019~~2020 10-K.

In addition to the significant accounting policies discussed in the Company’s Fiscal 2019 10-K, the Company has added the following significant accounting policies as a result of its adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 and 2018-11, ~~Leases, (Topic 842)~~ ~~on March 3, 2019 under the alternative transition method as permissible under ASU 2018-11 (please see Note 12. Leases, for additional details).~~

~~Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements~~

~~In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02~~~~, Leases, (Topic 842)~~ (“ASU-2016-02” or the “Lease Standard”), which is intended to improve financial reporting around leasing transactions. The ASU affects all companies and other organizations that engage in lease transactions (both lessee and lessor). This ASU requires organizations that lease assets—referred to as “lessees”—to recognize on the balance sheet a right of use asset (“ROU asset”) and a lease liability for the obligations created by those leases. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning January 1, 2019.

~~During July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11,~~ ~~Leases (Topic 842):~~ Targeted Improvements. The ASU provides administrative relief by allowing entities to implement the Lease Standard using an alternative transition method. Effectively, the alternative transition method permits adoption of the Lease Standard through an adjustment to its opening balance sheet for the period of adoption, with the cumulative effect accounted for as an adjustment to retained earnings, without restating prior periods.

The Company adopted the Lease Standard on March 3, 2019 under the alternative transition method as permissible under ASU 2018-11, and applied the Lease Standard to all leases through a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning accumulated deficit. As a result, comparative financial information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the Lease Standard, which includes, among other things, the ability to carry forward the existing lease classification. On March 3, 2019, the Company recorded a liability for operating leases of $3,295,327, a ROU asset for such leases of $3,026,976 and recorded an after-tax transition adjustment to increase accumulated deficit by $56,776. The Lease Standard had a material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet, but did not have a material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations or the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

As permitted under the practical expedient concerning assessment of lease portfolio, the Company chose not to reassess its lease portfolio, and consequently, all existing leases that were classified as operating leases in accordance with Topic 840, continue to be classified as operating leases, and all existing leases that were classified as capital leases under Topic 840 continue to be classified as finance leases.

The Company performed an evaluation of ROU asset for impairment on transition. Stores that had previously been impaired and continued to fail the recoverability test as of March 2, 2019 were evaluated. Any store ROU asset with a carrying amount in excess of fair value was written down to the fair value. Fair value of those ROU assets was determined based on a study of market rents for similar active/operating retails sites. The result of this impairment assessment was a $81,745 write-down of the ROU assets on transition to accumulated deficit. In addition, the Company recognized $24,969 of deferred gains as a reduction to accumulated deficit upon transition related to prior sale-leaseback transactions along with other minor adjustments.

As of March 2, 2019, the Company had $124,046 in closed store and lease exit liabilities under Topic 420 (“Topic 420 Liabilities”). Under transition to Topic 842, existing Topic 420 liabilities were eliminated by recording a reduction to the ROU asset balance. However, in certain cases the Company had larger existing Topic 420 liabilities than the ROU asset balances. This excess amount of $9,333 continues to be recorded as a liability and will reduce lease expense over the remaining lease term of the affected stores. In addition, upon transition, the Company reclassified deferred rent, including unamortized tenant income allowances, prepaid rent, and favorable and unfavorable lease balances resulting from prior acquisition accounting to the ROU asset.

~~The following is a discussion of the Company’s lease policy under the new lease accounting standard:~~

The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at the inception of a contract. Operating lease right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of the remaining future minimum lease payments. As the interest rate implicit in the Company’s leases is not readily determinable, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate, determined by class of underlying asset, to discount the lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is determined using a portfolio approach based on the rate of interest that we would pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over a similar term. We use quoted interest rates obtained from financial institutions in an input to derive our incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for the lease. The ROU asset is equal to the operating lease liability plus lease payments made before commencement, less lease incentives received from the landlord.

The Company’s real estate leases typically contain options that permit lease extensions for additional periods of up to five years each. For real estate leases, generally, the renewal periods are not included within the lease term and the associated payments are not included in the measurement of the ROU asset and operating lease liability as the options to extend are not considered reasonably certain to occur at lease commencement. The Company reevaluates each lease on a regular basis to consider the economic and strategic incentives of exercising the renewal options and will include all reasonably certain options in the measurement of our lease term. Generally, the renewal option periods are not included within the lease term and the associated payments are not included in the measurement of the operating lease right-of-use asset and the operating lease liability until the renewals are i) evaluated and ii) determined to be exercised. The Company has an insignificant amount of non-real estate leases however, renewal options are not included in the lease term for non-

real estate leases because they are not considered reasonably certain of being exercised at lease commencement. The Company rarely executes leases less than 12 months. On transition, the Company did include in its ROU asset balance leases with less than 12 months remaining.

For real estate leases, the Company accounts for lease components and non-lease components as a single lease component. Certain real estate leases require additional payments based on sales volume, as well as reimbursement for real estate taxes, common area maintenance and insurance, which are expensed as incurred as variable lease costs. Other real estate leases contain 1 fixed lease payment that includes real estate taxes, common area maintenance and insurance. These fixed payments are considered part of the lease payment and included in the operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities.

~~supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08,~~ ~~Principal Versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross Versus Net)~~~~, which amends the principal-versus-agent implementation guidance and in April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10,~~ ~~Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing,~~ which amends the guidance in those areas in the new revenue recognition standard. These ASUs, collectively the “new revenue standard“, are effective for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning January 1, 2018.

The Company adopted the new revenue standard as of March 4, 2018 using the modified retrospective method and applying the new standard to all contracts with customers. In connection with the adoption of the new revenue standard, the Company identified one difference in its Retail Pharmacy segment related to the timing of revenue recognition for third party prescription revenues, which was historically recognized at the time the prescription was filled. Upon adoption of ASU No. 2014-09, this revenue is recognized at the time the customer takes possession of the merchandise. In connection with its March 4, 2018 adoption of the new revenue standard on a modified retrospective basis, the Company recorded a reduction to accounts receivable of $57,897, a reduction to deferred tax assets of $1,771, an increase to inventory of $51,121, and a corresponding increase to accumulated deficit of $8,547 within its Retail Pharmacy segment.

In addition, the Company identified revenues under one specific rebate administration program under which the Company's Pharmacy Services segment was determined to be the principal and historically recognized revenues and cost of revenues on a gross basis of approximately $123,500 during fiscal 2018. Upon adoption of the new revenue standard, the Company is now recording revenue from this program on a net basis.

~~Retail Pharmacy Segment~~The following table disaggregates the Company’s revenue by major source in each segment for the thirteen week periods ended May 30, 2020 and June 1, 2019:

For front-end sales, the Retail Pharmacy segment recognizes revenues upon the transfer of control of the goods to the customer. The Company satisfies its performance obligation at the point of sale for front-end transactions. The Retail Pharmacy segment front-end revenue is measured based on the amount of fixed consideration that it expects to receive, net of an allowance for estimated future returns. Return activity is immaterial to revenues and results of operations in all periods presented.

For pharmacy sales, the Retail Pharmacy segment recognizes revenue upon the transfer of control of the goods to the customer. The Company satisfies its performance obligation, upon pickup by the customer, which is when the customer takes title to the product. Each prescription claim represents an individual arrangement with the customer and is a performance obligation, separate and distinct from other prescription claims. The Company’s revenue is measured based on the amount of fixed consideration that we expect to receive, reduced by refunds owed to the third party payor for pricing guarantees and performance against defined value-based service and performance metrics. The inputs to these estimates are not highly subjective or volatile. The effect of adjustments between estimated and actual amounts have not been material to the Company’s results of operations or financial position. Prescriptions are generally not returnable.

The Retail Pharmacy segment offers a chain-wide loyalty card program titled ~~wellness +.~~wellness+. Individual customers are able to become members of the ~~wellness +~~wellness+ program. Members participating in the ~~wellness +~~wellness+ loyalty card program earn points on a calendar year basis for eligible front-end merchandise purchases and qualifying prescription purchases. ~~NaN point is awarded for each dollar spent towards front-end merchandise and 25 points are awarded for each qualifying prescription.~~

Effective January 1, 2020, members reach specific ~~wellness +~~wellness+ tiers based on points accumulated during the six calendar month periods between January 1^st and June 30^th, and July 1^st through December 31^st, which entitles such customers to certain future discounts and other benefits upon reaching that tier. For example, any customer that reaches 500 points during the six calendar month period between January 1^st and June 30^th achieves the “Gold” tier, enabling him or her to receive a 20% discount on qualifying purchases of front-end merchandise for the remaining portion of that six calendar month period and for the following six calendar months. There is also a similar “Silver” level with a lower threshold and benefit level. Prior to January 1, 2020, the ~~wellness +~~wellness+ tiers were based on points accumulated for a full calendar year, and entitled such customers to ~~wellness +~~wellness+ benefits for the remainder of that calendar year and also the next calendar year.

Points earned pursuant to the wellness+ program represent a performance obligation and the Company allocates revenue between the merchandise purchased and the ~~wellness +~~wellness+ points based on the relative stand-alone selling price of each performance obligation. The relative value of the ~~wellness +~~wellness+ points is initially deferred as a contract liability (included in other current and noncurrent liabilities). As members receive discounted front-end merchandise or when the benefit period expires, the Retail Pharmacy segment recognizes an allocable portion of the deferred contract liability into revenue. For the thirteen week period ended May 30, 2020, the Company recognized approximately $11,600 of deferred contract liability into revenue. The Retail Pharmacy segment had accrued contract liabilities of ~~$67,517~~$41,089 as of ~~November~~May 30, ~~2019, of~~2020, which ~~$62,339~~ is included in other current ~~liabilities and $5,178 is included in noncurrent~~ liabilities.

The Company elected to early adopt the ~~principal at~~new rule on May 30, 2020. Accordingly, the ~~contract prices negotiated with its clients, primarily employers, insurance companies, unions, government employee groups, health plans, Managed Medicaid plans, Medicare plans,~~revised condensed consolidating financial information is presented in Item 2, Management's Discussion and ~~other sponsors~~Analysis of ~~health benefit plans,~~Financial Condition and ~~individuals throughout the United States. Revenues include: (i) the portion~~Results of the price the client pays directly to the Pharmacy Services segment, net of any volume-related or other discounts paid back to the client (see “Drug Discounts” below), (ii) the price paid to the Pharmacy Services segment by client plan members for mail order prescriptions (“Mail Co-Payments”), (iii) client plan member copayments made directly to the retail pharmacy network and (iv) administrative fees. Revenue is recognized when the Pharmacy Services segment meets its performance obligations relative to each transaction type. The following revenue recognition policies have been established for the Pharmacy Services segment:Operations.

~~segment’s online claims processing system. At this point the Company has performed all of its performance obligations.~~

●

Revenues generated from prescription drugs sold by the Pharmacy Services segment’s mail service dispensing pharmacy are recognized when the prescription is shipped. At the time of shipment, the Pharmacy Services segment has performed all of its performance obligations under its client contracts, as control of and title to the product has passed to the client plan members. The Pharmacy Services segment does not experience a significant level of returns or reshipments.

●

Revenues generated from administrative fees based on membership or claims volume are recognized monthly based on the terms within the individual contracts, either a monthly member based fee, or a claims volume based fee.

In August 2018, the ~~majority of its contracts, the Pharmacy Services segment~~FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40), which is ~~the principal because its client contracts give clients the right to obtain access to its pharmacy contracts under which the Pharmacy Services segment directs its pharmacy network~~intended to provide entities with additional guidance to determine which software implementation costs to capitalize and which costs to expense. The ASU will allow entities to capitalize costs for implementation activities during the ~~services (drug dispensing, consultation, etc.)~~application development stage. ASU No. 2018-15 is effective for fiscal years and ~~goods (prescription drugs) to the clients’ members at its negotiated pricing.~~interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2019 (fiscal 2021). Early adoption of ASU 2018-15 is permitted. The Pharmacy Services segment’s obligations under its client contracts are separate and distinct from its obligations to the third party pharmacies included in its retail pharmacy network contracts. In the majorityadoption of these contracts, the Pharmacy Services segment is contractually required to pay the third party pharmacies in its retail pharmacy network for products sold after payment is received from its clients. The Pharmacy Services segment has control over these transactions until the prescription is transferred to the member and, thus, that it is acting asthis ASU did not have a ~~principal. As such, the Pharmacy Services segment records the total prescription price contracted with clients in revenues.~~

Amounts paid to pharmacies and amounts charged to clients are exclusive of the applicable co-payment under Pharmacy Services segment contracts. Retail pharmacy co-payments, which we instruct retail pharmacies to collect from members, are included in our revenues and our cost of revenues.

For contracts under which the Pharmacy Services segment acts as an agent or does not control the prescription drugs prior to transfer to the client, no revenue is recognized, except the administrative fee.

Drug Discounts—The Pharmacy Services segment deducts from its revenues that are generated from prescription drugs sold by third party pharmacies any rebates, inclusive of discounts and fees, earned by its clients basedmaterial impact on ~~utilization levels and other factors as negotiated with the prescription drug manufacturers or suppliers. Rebates are paid to clients in accordance with the terms of client contracts.~~

Medicare Part D—The Pharmacy Services segment, through its Envision Insurance Company ("EIC") subsidiary, participates in the federal government’s Medicare Part D program as a Prescription Drug Plan (“PDP”). Please refer to Note 8, Medicare Part D.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which adds to U.S. GAAP an impairment model (known as the current expected credit loss ("CECL") model), that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Under ASU 2016-13, an entity will recognize, as an allowance, its estimate of lifetime expected credit losses, which the FASB believes will result in more timely recognition of such losses. ASU 2016-13 impacts non-banks as most non-banks have financial instruments or other assets (e.g. trade, contract and lease receivables, financial guarantees, loans and loan commitments and held-to-maturity debt securities).

The ASU also removes the disclosure requirements for the effects of ~~Cash Flows presentation~~

4. Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic ~~loss~~income (loss) per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted ~~loss~~income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the income of the Company, subject to anti-dilution limitations.

~~On April 10, 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a one-for-twenty~~ ~~reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock. The reverse stock split was effected on April 18, 2019 at 5:00 p.m. Eastern time. At the effective time, every~~ ~~twenty~~ issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock were converted into one share of common stock. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the reverse stock split, and in lieu thereof, each stockholder holding fractional shares was entitled to receive a cash payment (without interest or deduction) from the Company’s transfer agent in an amount equal to such stockholder’s respective pro rata shares of the total net proceeds from the Company’s transfer agent sale of all fractional shares at the then-prevailing prices on the open market. In connection with the reverse stock split, the number of authorized shares of our common stock was also reduced on a one-for-~~twenty~~ basis, from 1,500,000 to 75,000. The par value of each share of common stock remained unchanged. A proportionate adjustment was also made to the maximum number of shares issuable under the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan.

The Company utilizes the three-level valuation hierarchy for the recognition and disclosure of fair value measurements. The categorization of assets and liabilities within this hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement of fair value. The three levels of the hierarchy consist of the following:

●

Level 1—Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

~~(Dollars and share information in thousands, except per share amounts)~~

~~(unaudited)~~

●

Level 2—Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices in markets that are not active or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the instrument.

●

Level 3—Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable inputs based upon management’s best estimate of inputs market participants could use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date, including assumptions about risk.

Non-Financial Assets Measured on a Non-Recurring Basis

Long-lived non-financial assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis for purposes of calculating impairment using Level 2 and Level 3 inputs as defined in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of long-lived assets using Level 2 inputs is determined by evaluating the current economic conditions in the geographic area for similar use assets. The fair value of long-lived assets using Level 3 inputs is determined by estimating the amount and timing of net future cash flows (which are unobservable inputs) and discounting them using a risk-adjusted rate of interest (which is Level 1). The Company estimates future cash flows based on its experience and knowledge of the market in which the store is located. Significant increases or decreases in actual cash flows may result in valuation changes. During the ~~thirty-nine~~thirteen week period ended ~~November~~May 30, 2020, long-lived assets from continuing operations with a carrying value of $2,203, were written down to their fair value of $0, resulting in an impairment charge of $2,203. Of the $2,203, $1,919 relates to a terminated software project and $284 relates to store assets. During the thirteen week period ended June 1, 2019, long-lived assets from continuing operations with a carrying value of ~~$1,533,~~$123, primarily store assets, were written down to their fair value of $0, resulting in an impairment charge of $1,533 of which $121 relates to the thirteen week period ended November 30, 2019. During the thirty-nine week period ended December 1, 2018, long-lived assets from continuing operations with a carrying value of $41,755, primarily store assets, were written down to their fair value of $7,183, resulting in an impairment charge of $34,572 of which $727 relates to the thirteen week period ended December 1, 2018.$123. If our actual future cash flows differ from our projections materially, certain stores that are either not impaired or partially impaired in the current period may be further impaired in future periods.

The following table presents fair values for those assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis at ~~November~~May 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~December~~June 1, ~~2018:~~2019:

Lease Termination and Facility Exit Charges

As part of the Company's ongoing business activities, the Company assesses stores and distribution centers for potential closure or relocation. Decisions to close or relocate stores or distribution centers in future periods would result in lease termination charges, lease exit costs and inventory liquidation charges, as well as impairment of assets at these locations. When a store or distribution center is closed, the Company records an expense for unrecoverable costs and accrues a liability equal to the present value at current credit adjusted risk-free interest rates of any anticipated executory costs which are not included within the store or distribution center's respective lease liability under Topic 842. Other store or distribution center closing and liquidation costs are expensed when incurred.

The following table reflects the closed store and distribution center charges that relate to new closures, changes in assumptions and interest accretion:

6. Fair Value Measurements

The Company utilizes the three-level valuation hierarchy as described in Note 5, Lease Termination and Impairment Charges, for the recognition and disclosure of fair value measurements.

~~As of November 30, 2019 and March 2, 2019, the Company did not have any financial assets measured on a recurring basis.~~

~~Other Financial Instruments~~

Financial instruments other than long-term indebtedness include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable. These instruments are recorded at book value, which we believe approximate their fair values due to their short term nature. In addition, as of May 30, 2020 and February 29, 2020, the Company has $7,014 and $7,022, respectively, of investments carried at amortized cost as these investments are being held to maturity, which are included as a component of other assets. The Company believes the carrying value of these investments approximates their fair value.

to their short term nature. In addition, as of November 30, 2019, the Company has $7,039 of investments carried at amortized cost as these investments are being held to maturity, which are included as a component of other assets. As of March 2, 2019, the Company has $7,191 of investments carried at amortized cost as these investments are being held to maturity, which are included as a component of prepaid expenses and other current assets. The Company believes the carrying value of these investments approximates their fair value.

The fair value for LIBOR-based borrowings under the Company’s senior secured credit facility is estimated based on the quoted market price of the financial instrument which is considered Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of substantially all of the Company’s other long-term indebtedness are estimated based on quoted market prices of the financial instruments which are considered Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The carrying amount and estimated fair value of the Company’s total long-term indebtedness was ~~$3,566,261~~$3,321,972 and ~~$3,204,496,~~$3,206,395, respectively, as of ~~November~~May 30, ~~2019.~~2020. The carrying amount and estimated fair value of the Company's total long-term indebtedness was ~~$3,454,585~~$3,077,268 and ~~$3,120,335,~~$3,021,385, respectively, as of ~~March 2, 2019.~~

On March 15, 2019, the Company entered into an interest rate cap (“Cap”), which has been designated to the variable interest rate payments on the first $650.0 million notional amount of variable rate indebtedness. The Cap has an effective date of March 21, 2019 and expires on March 21, 2021. The Cap provides the Company with interest rate protection in the event that LIBOR increases above 2.75~~%. The nominal fair market value of the Cap is recorded as a component of other assets.~~February 29, 2020.

7. Income Taxes

The Company recorded an income tax ~~expense from continuing operations of $876 and an income tax~~ benefit from continuing operations of ~~$1,471 for the thirteen week periods ended November 30, 2019 and December 1, 2018 respectively,~~$8,018 and an income tax expense from continuing operations of ~~$35,878 and an income tax benefit from continuing operations of $117,527~~$7,374 for the ~~thirty-nine~~thirteen week periods ended ~~November~~May 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~December~~June 1, ~~2018,~~2019, respectively. The effective tax rate for the thirteen week periods ended ~~November~~May 30, 2020 and June 1, 2019 was 9.9% and ~~December 1, 2018 was 1.6% and 7.9%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the thirty-nine week periods ended November 30, 2019 and December 1, 2018 was (39.9)~~(8.0)% ~~and 22.2%~~, respectively. The effective tax rate for the thirteen ~~and thirty-nine~~ week periods ended ~~November~~May 30, 2020 and June 1, 2019 was net of an adjustment of ~~(31.8)~~(10.6)% and ~~(61.0)~~(34.5)%, respectively, to adjust the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets created this year as well as for certain existing state deferred taxes whose realization is now uncertain due to a restructuring of our legal entities. The effective tax rate for the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended December 1, 2018 included an adjustment of (9.5)% and (4.1)% to increase the valuation allowance related to certain state deferred taxes.assets.

The Company recognizes tax liabilities in accordance with the guidance for uncertain tax positions and management adjusts these liabilities with changes in judgment as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available. Due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from the current estimate of the tax liabilities.

The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that a decrease of up to ~~$7,448~~$13,210 in unrecognized tax benefits related to state exposures may be necessary in the next twelve months however management does not expect the change to have a significant impact on the results of operations or the financial position of the Company.

The Company regularly evaluates valuation allowances established for deferred tax assets for which future realization is uncertain. Management will continue to monitor all available evidence related to the net deferred tax assets that may change the most recent assessment, including events that have occurred or are anticipated to occur. The Company continues to maintain a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets of ~~$1,071,001~~$1,681,399 and ~~$1,091,416,~~$1,673,119, which relates to federal and state deferred tax assets that may not be realized based on the Company's future projections of taxable income at ~~November~~May 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~March 2, 2019,~~February 29, 2020, respectively.

8. Medicare Part D

The Company offers Medicare Part D benefits through EIC, which has contracted with CMS to be a PDP and, pursuant to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003, must be a risk-bearing entity regulated under state insurance laws or similar statutes.

EIC is a licensed domestic insurance company under the applicable laws and regulations. Pursuant to these laws and regulations, EIC must file quarterly and annual reports with the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”) and certain state regulators, must maintain certain minimum amounts of capital and surplus under formulas established by certain states and must, in certain circumstances, request and receive the approval of certain state regulators before making dividend payments or other capital distributions to the Company. The Company does not believe these limitations on dividends and distributions materially impact its financial position. EIC is subject to

minimum capital and surplus requirements in certain states. The minimum amount of capital and surplus required to satisfy regulatory requirements in these states is ~~$25,332~~$9,675 as of ~~September 30, 2019.~~March 31, 2020. EIC was in excess of the minimum required amounts in these states as of ~~November~~May 30, ~~2019.~~2020.

The Company has recorded estimates of various assets and liabilities arising from its participation in the Medicare Part D program based on information in its claims management and enrollment systems. Significant estimates arising from its participation in this program include: (i) estimates of low-income cost subsidies, reinsurance amounts, and coverage gap discount amounts ultimately payable to CMS based on a detailed claims reconciliation that will occur in the following year; (ii) an estimate of amounts receivable from CMS under a risk-sharing feature of the Medicare Part D program design, referred to as the risk corridor and (iii) estimates for claims that have been reported and are in the process of being paid or contested and for our estimate of claims that have been incurred but have not yet been reported.

On February 19, 2020, the Company entered into a receivable purchase agreement (the “Receivable Purchase Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A. (the “Purchaser”).

Pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Receivable Purchase Agreement, the Company sold $501,422 of its calendar 2019 CMS receivable for $484,547, of which $449,949 was received on February 19, 2020. The remaining $34,598, which is included in accounts receivable, net as of May 30, 2020, is payable to the Company, subject to final CMS claim reconciliation adjustments, upon receipt of the final remittance from CMS.

(unaudited)

On January 6, 2020, the Company commenced an offer to exchange up to $600,000 aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 6.125% Notes for newly issued 7.500% Senior Secured Notes due 2025 (the “7.500% Notes”). On February 5, 2020, the Company announced that the exchange offer was oversubscribed and accepted for payment $600,000 aggregate principal amount of the 6.125% Notes in exchange for newly issued 7.500% Notes. The Company accounted for the exchange as a debt modification and accordingly did not record a loss on debt retirement.

The 7.500% Notes mature on July 1, 2025, and are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by the same Subsidiary Guarantors that guarantee the Existing Facilities and the 6.125% Notes. The 7.500% Notes and the obligations under the related guarantees are secured by (i) a first-priority lien on all of the Subsidiary Guarantors’ equipment, fixtures, investment property (other than equity interests in subsidiaries), intellectual property (following the repayment of the Senior Secured Term Loan) and other collateral to the extent it does not constitute ABL priority collateral (as defined below), and (ii) a second-priority lien on all of the Subsidiary Guarantors’ cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, payment intangibles, inventory, prescription files (including eligible script lists) and, intellectual property (prior to the repayment of the Senior Secured Term Loan (collectively, the “ABL priority collateral”), which, in each case, also secure the Existing Facilities.

On June 25, 2020, the Company commenced an offer to exchange (the “June 25, 2020 Exchange Offer”) up to $750,000 aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 6.125% Notes for a combination of $600,000 newly issued 8.0% Senior Secured Notes due 2026 (the “8.0% Notes”) and $145,500 cash. The Company anticipates that the exchange will be considered a debt modification and accordingly, anticipates a minimal loss on the exchange during the second quarter of fiscal 2021. The 8.0% Notes will be secured on an equal and ratable basis by the same assets that secure the 7.500% Notes. The 8.0% Notes will be guaranteed on a senior secured basis by the same subsidiaries that guarantee the 7.500% Notes. In conjunction with the June 25, 2020 Exchange Offer, the Company also commenced a solicitation of consents from the holders of outstanding 6.125% Notes to certain proposed amendments to the indenture governing the 6.125% Notes, which would modify certain limitations in the debt covenant to allow for the creation of the 8.0% Notes.

Maturities

The aggregate annual principal payments of long-term debt for the remainder of fiscal ~~2020~~2021 and thereafter are as follows: ~~2020—$0;~~ 2021—$0; 2022—$0; 2023—$0; 2024—$~~3,338,490~~2,495,490; 2025—$0 and ~~$266,387 thereafter.~~$866,387 thereafter (without giving effect to the June 25, 2020 Exchange Offer). These aggregate annual principal payments of long-term debt assume that the Company has ~~not~~ repaid or refinanced its existing 6.125% Notes prior to December 31, 2022.

12. Leases

The Company leases most of its retail stores and certain distribution facilities under ~~noncancellable~~noncancelable operating and ~~capital~~finance leases, most of which have initial lease terms ranging from 5 to 22 years. The Company also leases certain of its equipment and other assets under ~~noncancellable~~noncancelable operating leases with initial terms ranging from 3 to 10 years. In addition to minimum rental payments, certain store leases require additional payments based on sales volume, as well as reimbursements for taxes, maintenance and insurance.

, the Company revised its definition of Adjusted EBITDA to no longer exclude the impact of revenue deferrals related to our customer loyalty program and further revised its disclosure by presenting certain amounts previously included within Other as separate reconciling items. Consequently, the Company revised Adjusted EBITDA for the ~~thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended December 1, 2018~~ ~~to conform with the revised definition and present separate reconciling items previously included with Other.~~

~~16.~~15. Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees

Legal Matters and Regulatory Proceedings

The Company is involved in numerous legal matters including litigation, arbitration, and other claims, and is subject to regulatory proceedings including investigations, inspections, audits, inquiries, and similar actions by pharmacy, health care, tax and other governmental authorities arising in the ordinary course of its business, including, without limitation, the matters described below. The Company records accruals for outstanding legal matters and applicable regulatory proceedings when it believes it is probable that a loss has been incurred, and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The Company evaluates, on a quarterly basis, developments in legal matters and regulatory proceedings that could affect the amount of any existing accrual and developments that would make a loss contingency

both probable and reasonably estimable, and as a result, warrant an accrual. If a loss contingency is not both probable and estimable, the Company does not establish an accrued liability. None of the Company’s accruals for outstanding legal matters or regulatory proceedings are material individually or in the aggregate to the Company’s consolidated financial position.

The Company’s contingencies are subject to significant uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, including, among other factors: (i) proceedings are in early stages; (ii) whether class or collective action status is sought and the likelihood of a class being certified; (iii) the outcome of pending appeals or motions;

(iv) the extent of potential damages, fines or penalties, which are often unspecified or indeterminate; (v) the impact of discovery on the matter; (vi) whether novel or unsettled legal theories are at issue; (vii) there are significant factual issues to be resolved; and/or (viii) in the case of certain government agency investigations, whether a qui tam lawsuit (“whistleblower” action) has been filed and whether the government agency makes a decision to intervene in the lawsuit following investigation. While the Company cannot predict the outcome of any of the contingencies, the Company’s management does not believe that the outcome of any of these legal matters or regulatory proceedings will be material to the Company’s consolidated financial position. It is possible, however, the Company’s results of operations or cash flows could be materially affected by unfavorable outcomes in outstanding legal matters or regulatory proceedings.

California Employment Litigation.

The Company is currently a defendant in several lawsuits filed in courts in California ~~alleging~~that contain allegations regarding violations of the California Business and Professions Code, various California employment laws and regulations, industry wage orders, wage-and-hour laws, rules and regulations pertaining primarily to failure to pay overtime, failure to pay premiums for missed meals and rest periods, failure to provide accurate wage statements, and failure to reimburse business expenses (the “California Cases”). Some of the California Cases purport or may be determined to be class actions or PAGA representative actions and seek substantial damages and penalties. ~~The~~These single-plaintiff and multi-plaintiff California Cases regarding violations of wage-and-hour laws, failure to pay overtime, failure to pay premiums for missed meals and rest periods, failure to provide accurate wage statements, and failure to reimburse business expenses, in the aggregate, seek substantial damages. The Company believes that its defenses and assertions in the California Cases ~~as well as other lawsuits,~~ have merit. The Company has aggressively challenged the merits of the lawsuits and, where applicable, ~~the~~ allegations that the lawsuits should be certified as class or representative actions. Additionally, at this time the Company is not able to predict either the outcome of or estimate a potential range of loss with respect to the California Cases and is defending itself against these ~~claims.~~claims

Usual and Customary and DUR/Code 1 Litigation.

In January 2017, qui tam plaintiff Azam Rahimi (“Relator”) filed a sealed False Claims Act (“FCA”) lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan. The United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Michigan, 18 states, and the District of Columbia declined to intervene. The unsealed lawsuit alleges that the Company failed to report Rite Aid’s Rx Savings Program prices as its usual and customary charges under the Medicare Part D program, federal and state Medicaid programs, and other publicly funded health care programs, and that the Company is thus liable under the federal FCA and similar state statutes. On ~~July 31,~~December 12, 2019, the ~~Company~~court granted the Company’s motion to dismiss and judgment on the pleadings based upon the FCA’s public disclosure bar. The Relator filed a motion for reconsideration which was denied. The Relator has appealed from the order granting the Company’s motion to dismiss and for judgment on the pleadings, ~~based on~~and also from the ~~FCA’s public disclosure bar. On December 12, 2019, the court granted the Company’s motion. Relator has until December 26, 2019 by which to file a~~order denying his motion for ~~reconsideration or January 13, 2020 by which to file a notice of appeal.~~reconsideration.

The State of Mississippi, by and through its Attorney General, filed a lawsuit against the Company and various purported related entities on September 27, 2016 alleging the Company failed to accurately report usual and customary prices to Mississippi’s Division of Medicaid. At this stage of the proceedings, the Company is not able to either predict the outcome of this lawsuit or estimate a potential range of loss with respect to the lawsuit, and is defending itself against these claims.

The Company is involved in 2a putative consumer class action ~~lawsuits~~lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California captioned Byron Stafford v. Rite Aid Corp.~~, Case No. 17-CV-01340-AJB-JLB (June 30, 2017) and~~ A separate lawsuit, Robert Josten v. Rite Aid Corp., ~~Case No. 18-CV-00152-AJB-JLB (January~~ ~~23, 2018).~~was consolidated with this lawsuit in November, 2019. The ~~lawsuits allege~~lawsuit contains allegations that (i) the Company was obligated to charge the plaintiffs’ insurance companies a “usual and customary” price for their prescription drugs; and (ii) the Company failed to do so ~~properly~~ because the prices it reported were not equal to or adjusted to account for the prices that Rite Aid offers to uninsured and underinsured customers through its Rx Savings Program. ~~Both lawsuits were consolidated under~~At this stage of the proceedings, the Company is not able to either predict the outcome or estimate a potential range of loss and is defending itself against these claims.~~Stafford~~ ~~caption on November 12, 2019.~~

On February 6, 2019, Humana, Inc, filed an arbitration claim alleging that the Company improperly submitted various usual and customary overcharges by failing to report its Rx Savings Program pricing to Humana. At this stage of the proceedings, the Company is not able to either predict the outcome of ~~the consolidated lawsuit~~this arbitration proceeding or estimate a potential range of loss, ~~with respect to the lawsuit,~~ and is defending itself against these claims.

In June 2013, the Company was served with a Civil Investigative Demand (“CID”) by the United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of California (the “USAO”) regarding (1) the Company’s Drug Utilization Review (“DUR”) and prescription dispensing protocol; and (2) the dispensing of drugs designated as “Code 1” by the State of California. The Company cooperated with the investigation, researched the government’s allegations, and refuted the government’s position. The Company produced documents including certain prescription files related to Code 1 drugs to the USAO’s office and the State of California Department of Justice’s Bureau of Medical Fraud and Elder Abuse (“CADOJ”). In August 2014, the USAO and 8 states’ attorneys general declined to intervene in a California False Claim Act lawsuit filed under seal in the Eastern District of California by qui tam plaintiff Loyd F. Schmuckley (“Relator”) based on DUR and Code 1 allegations. In July 2016, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the District of Columbia also declined to intervene in the lawsuit. At this stage of the proceedings, the Company is not able to either predict the outcome of this matter or estimate a potential range of loss with respect to this matter, and is defending itself against these claims.

~~Pseudoephedrine Investigation.~~

~~On April~~ 26, 2012, the Company was served with an administrative subpoena from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (“DEA”), Albany, New York District Office, requesting information regarding the Company’s sale of products containing pseudoephedrine (“PSE”). In April 2012, it also received a communication from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of New York (“USAO”) regarding an investigation of possible civil violations of the Combat Methamphetamine Epidemic Act of 2005 (“CMEA”). Additional subpoenas were served in 2013, 2014, and 2015 requesting broader documentation regarding PSE sales and recordkeeping requirements. The Company has cooperated, provided information and documents responsive to the subpoenas and supplemental requests for production. The civil investigation is ongoing.

Controlled Substances Litigation, Audits and ~~Investigations.~~Investigations

The Company along with various other defendants are named in multiple opioid-related lawsuits filed by counties, cities, municipalities, Native American tribes, hospitals, third-party payers, and others across the United States. In December 2017, the U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation consolidated and transferred hundreds of federal opioid-related lawsuits that name the Company and/or a related entity as a defendant to the multi-district litigation (“MDL”) pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio before Judge Dan Polster under In re National Prescription Opiate Litigation (Case No. 17-MD-2804). A significant number of similar cases that are not part of the MDL and name the Company and/or a related entity or entities as a defendant in ~~some capacity~~also are ~~also~~ pending in state courts. The plaintiffs in all of these opioid-related lawsuits generally allege claims concerning the impacts of widespread opioid abuse against defendants along the pharmaceutical supply chain, including manufacturers, wholesale distributors, and retail pharmacies. At this stage of the proceedings, the Company is not able to predict the outcome of the opioid-related lawsuits or estimate a potential range of loss regarding the lawsuits. The Company is defending itself against all ~~such~~relevant claims.

Miscellaneous Litigation and Investigations.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) is investigating trading in the Company’s securities that occurred in or around January 2017, and has subpoenaed information from the Company in connection with that investigation. The Company is cooperating with the SEC in this matter. In addition to the above described matters, the Company is subject from time to time to various claims and lawsuits and governmental investigations arising in the ordinary course of business. While the Company’s management cannot predict the outcome of any of the claims, the Company’s management does not believe that the outcome of any of these matters will be material to the Company’s consolidated financial position. It is possible, however, that the Company’s results of operations or cash flows could be materially affected by an unfavorable resolution of pending litigation or contingencies.

These other legal proceedings include claims of improper disclosure of personal information, anticompetitive practices, general contractual matters, product liability, professional malpractice, non-compliance with state and federal regulatory regimes, marketing misconduct, intellectual property litigation and employment litigation. Some of these other legal proceedings are or are purported to be class actions or derivative claims. The Company is defending itself against the claims brought in these matters.

17.Subsequent Events

The Company is closely monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of its business and the markets in ~~accrued interest~~which it operates, including how the pandemic will impact its customers, associates, suppliers, vendors, business partners and supply chain. Due to the significant amount of ~~$30,653.~~uncertainties that continue to exist relative to the pandemic, the Company is unable to predict the impact that COVID-19 will have on its financial position and results of operations, but such impact could be material.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Thirteen Week Periods Ended May 30, 2020 and June 1, 2019

(Dollars and share information in thousands, except per share amounts)

(unaudited)

As of June 25, 2020, the Company had liquidity of $1.7 billion, which consisted of availability to borrow under its Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility of $1.5 billion and cash on hand of $180.0 million. The Company will continue to assess the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s financial position. However, the extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak will impact the Company’s operations or financial results is uncertain, but such impact could be material.

During late May 2020 and early June 2020, a period of civil unrest took place in certain markets in which the Company operates and some of the Company’s stores were damaged. As of July 2, 2020, the Company was still assessing damages and losses and some of such damaged stores remain closed. The Company maintains insurance coverage for inventory and property damage and also maintains business interruption insurance coverage. The Company does not believe that the damages and losses, net of insurance claim settlement proceeds, will have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations in future periods.

Our Retail Pharmacy segment generates the majority of its revenue through the sale of prescription drugs and front-end products at our ~~2,464~~over 2,400 retail ~~stores.~~pharmacy locations across 18 states. We replenish our retail stores through a combination of direct store delivery of pharmaceutical products facilitated through our pharmaceutical Purchasing and Delivery Agreement with McKesson, and the majority of our front-end products through our network of distribution centers. In addition, as of November 30, 2019, the Retail Pharmacy segment includes 66 RediClinic walk-in retail clinics, of which, 30 were located within Rite Aid retail stores in the Philadelphia and New Jersey markets.

Pharmacy Services Segment

Our Pharmacy Services segment provides a full range of pharmacy benefit services through EnvisionRxOptions. The Pharmacy Services segment provides both transparent and traditional PBM options through its EnvisionRxOptions and MedTrak PBMs. EnvisionRxOptions also offers fully integrated mail-order and specialty pharmacy services through EnvisionPharmacies; an innovative claims adjudication software platform in Laker Software; and a national Medicare Part D prescription drug plan through EIC’s EnvisionRx Plus product offering.

Restructuring

~~In March~~Beginning in Fiscal 2019, ~~the Board~~we initiated a series of ~~Directors implemented a reorganization of~~restructuring plans designed to reorganize our executive management team, ~~to further streamline our business. In addition, we announced a restructuring plan that resulted in a reduction of~~reduce managerial layers, and ~~consolidated roles across~~consolidate roles. In March 2020, we announced the ~~organization. In addition, we have been working on other transformation initiatives,~~details of our RxEvolution strategy, which ~~include~~includes building tools to work with regional health plans to improve patient health outcomes, ~~rationalization of~~rationalizing SKU’s in our front-end offering to free up working capital ~~an assessment of~~and update our merchandise assortment, assessing our pricing and promotional strategy, ~~additional executive team changes~~rebranding our retail pharmacy and EnvisionRxOptions business, launching our Store of the Future format and further reducing SG&A and headcount, ~~reductions,~~including integrating certain back office functions in the Pharmacy Services segment both within the segment and ~~a continued review of our cost structure.~~across Rite Aid.

As a result of the restructuring that we announced in March 2019, we ~~expect to achieve~~achieved annual cost savings of approximately $55.0 ~~million, of which approximately $42.0 million is expected to be realized during the fiscal year ended February 29, 2020.~~million.

Asset Sale to WBA

On September 18, 2017, we entered into the Amended and Restated Asset Purchase Agreement with WBA and Buyer, which amended and restated in its entirety the previously disclosed Original Asset Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Amended and Restated Asset Purchase Agreement, Buyer ~~agreed to purchase~~purchased from Rite Aid 1,932 Acquired Stores, three distribution centers, related inventory and other specified assets and liabilities related thereto for a purchase price of approximately $4.375 billion, on a cash-free, debt-free basis, in the Sale.

The transfer of the final distribution center and related assets constitutes the final closing ~~as specified in~~under the Amended and Restated Asset Purchase Agreement.

We ~~will receive additional proceeds of approximately $94.0 million upon completion of the sale of the remaining distribution center and related assets.~~

The parties to the Amended and Restated Asset Purchase Agreement have each made customary representations and warranties. We have agreed to various covenants and agreements, including, among others, our agreement to conduct our business at the distribution centers being sold to WBA in the ordinary course during the period between the execution of the Amended and Restated Asset Purchase Agreement and the distribution center closing. We have alsohad agreed to provide transition services to Buyer for up to three years after the initial closing of the Sale. Under the terms of the TSA, we ~~provide~~provided various services on behalf of WBA, including but not limited to the purchase and distribution of inventory and virtually all selling, general and administrative activities. The term of the TSA ~~has~~had been extended to October 17, ~~2020.~~2020, unless earlier terminated. In connection with these services, we ~~purchase~~purchased the related inventory and ~~incur~~incurred cash payments for the selling, general and administrative activities, which, we ~~bill~~billed on a cash neutral basis to WBA in accordance with terms as outlined in the TSA. Total billings for these items during the thirteen ~~and thirty-nine~~ week periods ended ~~November~~May 30, 2020 and June 1, 2019 were ~~$0.6 billion~~$31.0 million and ~~$2.7~~$1.2 billion, respectively, of which ~~$105.4~~$4.4 million ~~is included in Accounts receivable, net. Total billings for these items during the thirteen~~ and ~~thirty-nine week periods ended December 1, 2018 were $1.6 billion and $5.5 billion, respectively, of which $327.9~~$224.4 million is included in Accounts receivable, net. We recorded WBA TSA fees of ~~$7.9~~$1.1 million and ~~$33.4~~$14.2 million during the thirteen ~~and thirty-nine~~ week periods ended ~~November~~May 30, 2020 and June 1, 2019, respectively, which are reflected as a reduction to selling, general and administrative expenses. ~~We recorded WBA TSA fees~~In conjunction with the transfer of ~~$17.9 million and $64.8 million~~the final distribution center during the ~~thirteen and thirty-nine week periods~~quarter ended ~~December 1, 2018, respectively, which are reflected as a reduction to selling, general and administrative expenses.~~May 30, 2020, we have substantially completed our obligations under the TSA.

Based on its magnitude and because we exited certain markets, the Sale represented a significant strategic shift that has a material effect on our operations and financial results. Accordingly, we have applied discontinued operations treatment for the Sale as required by GAAP.

Impact of COVID-19

We are closely monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business and the markets in which we operate, including how it will impact our customers, associates, suppliers, vendors, business partners and supply chain.

Rite Aid is on the front lines of providing communities with essential care, services and products and took the following actions during the COVID-19 pandemic to serve its customers and communities:

●

Worked with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to be early adopters of COVID-19 testing, launching 97 sites with the capacity to conduct more than 48,000 tests each week.

Table of Contents

●

Provided additional support specific to associate pay and safety, including our Hero Pay program that ran from March 15 to May 16, 2020, a $1,000 Hero Bonus for retail store management, Pandemic Pay, Administrative Leave, and various in-store safety procedures.

●

Through The Rite Aid Foundation, committed $6 million to support healthcare providers and first responders, regional hot spots, community needs and The Rite Aid Foundation Associate Relief Fund.

●

Hired approximately 6,000 full and part-time associates to support store and distribution center teams.

●

Instituted “Pandemic Pay” policy that ensures associates are compensated if diagnosed with the virus or quarantined because of exposure.

●

Implemented specific internal protocols to keep associates safe and ready to serve customers, including the installation of Plexiglas shields at pharmacy and front-end counters to provide additional protection.

●

Ensured contact-less capabilities at our stores for prescription pickup and payment.

●

Expanded home delivery of front-end items through a new partnership with Instacart.

●

Launched a new telehealth service Rite Aid Virtual Care to better serve patient needs.

●

Established social distancing procedures that include marking floor areas in front of the pharmacy and front-end counters with tape to ensure 6-foot separation.

●

Waived delivery-service fees for eligible prescriptions.

●

Followed enhanced cleaning and sanitization protocols designed specifically to prevent the spread of a wide spectrum of viruses, including COVID-19 and influenza.

The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on our first quarter results. Increased demand for certain front-end products drove a 14.2% increase in front-end comparable store sales. Reduced demand for acute prescriptions due to the doctor’s office closures and the deferral of elective procedures caused a 14.8% reduction in acute prescriptions. Investments in Hero Pay and Hero Bonus programs and additional costs to clean and sanitize stores drove a significant in increase in SG&A expenses. In total, COVID-19 had a net negative impact of $30 million in Adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter.

During the first three weeks of June, we saw continued increases in comparable front-end sales of 7.2% excluding cigarettes and tobacco products over the same prior year period, due to demand for personal care, paper products and OTC medications. We believe our continued strong front-end performance is due to good in-stock positioning through vendor partnerships and store-level execution, success with keeping stores open for longer hours compared to competitors and maintaining a safe and clean store experience for associates and customers. Same store prescription counts during the first three weeks of June increased 80 basis points over the same prior year period due to a lessening impact of acute prescription declines, which decreased by 11.7%.

In addition, we continue to closely manage and reduce costs. We have recently eliminated approximately 250 corporate office positions across both our Retail Pharmacy and Pharmacy Services segments. We have also taken steps to reduce other expenses, such as shrink, advertising, rent, travel and call center expenses. In total, we expect these reductions to result in savings of over $40.0 million in Fiscal 2021 that were not included in our original guidance and over $55.0 million on a run rate basis, although we cannot assure that we will achieve such savings in the amounts or time anticipated. The company expects to incur severance costs of $7.0 million related to the elimination of corporate positions, which will be classified as a restructuring expense.

As of June 25, 2020, we had liquidity of approximately $1.7 billion, which consists of availability to borrow under our secured revolving credit facility of approximately $1.5 billion and cash on hand of approximately $180.0 million.

Overview of Financial Results from Continuing Operations

Our net ~~income~~loss from continuing operations for the thirteen week period ended ~~November~~May 30, ~~2019~~2020 was ~~$52.3~~$72.7 million or ~~$0.98~~$1.36 per basic and diluted share compared to a net loss of ~~$17.3~~$99.3 million or ~~$0.33~~$1.88 per basic and diluted share for the thirteen week period ended ~~December~~June 1, ~~2018.~~2019. The improvement in ~~our operating results for the thirteen week period ended November 30, 2019~~net loss was due primarily to a LIFO credit in the ~~$55.7 million gain on debt retirement~~current year compared to a LIFO charge in ~~connection with~~ the prior year, an income tax benefit in the current year compared to income tax expense in the prior year, and lower restructuring-related costs, partially offset by intangible asset impairment charges relating to the rebranding of the Pharmacy Services Segment to its new brand name, Elixir.

The improvement in our operating results for the thirty-nine week period ended November 30, 2019 was due primarily to goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges recognized in the prior year of $375.2 million, the gain on debt retirement noted above, lower labor and benefits expense, lower depreciation and amortization and lease termination and impairment charges. These benefits were partially offset by restructuring-related costs incurred in connection with our Path to the Future initiative in the current year and higher income tax expense and lower WBA TSA fee income.

In addition, there was a reduction in WBAfrom TSA fee income ~~due to fewer stores being serviced under~~in the ~~TSA.~~prior year. Although our Retail Pharmacy segment benefited from increased front-end sales, the reduction in acute prescription count and incremental expenses for payroll and other operating costs resulted in a combined net negative impact from COVID-19 of approximately $30.0 million in the quarter. Adjusted EBITDA increased by ~~$7.9~~$18.1 million in the Pharmacy Services ~~segment. Pharmacy Services~~ segment ~~Adjusted EBITDA benefited from~~due primarily to increased revenues and improvements in pharmacy network ~~performance, partially offset by increases in SG&A expense related to our growth in Medicare Part D membership.~~

The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA for the thirty-nine week period ended November 30, 2019 was due primarily to a decrease of $23.7 million in the Retail Pharmacy segment. The decrease in the Retail Pharmacy segment Adjusted EBITDA was due primarily to a reduction in gross profit, partially offset by decreases in SG&A.

The effective tax rate for the thirty-nine week periods ended November 30, 2019 and December 1, 2018 was (39.9)~~(8.0)% ~~and 22.2%~~, respectively. The effective tax rate for the thirteen ~~and thirty-nine~~ week periods ended ~~November~~May 30, 2020 and June 1, 2019 was net of an adjustment of ~~(31.8)~~(10.6)% and ~~(61.0)~~(34.5)%, respectively, to adjust the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets created this year as well as for certain existing state deferred taxes whose realization is now uncertain due to a restructuring of our legal entities. The effective tax rate for the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended December 1, 2018 included an adjustment of (9.5)% and (4.1)% to increase the valuation allowance related to certain state deferred taxes.assets.

We recognize tax liabilities in accordance with the guidance for uncertain tax positions and management adjusts these liabilities with changes in judgment as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available. Due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from the current estimate of the tax liabilities.

We believe that it is reasonably possible that a decrease of up to ~~$7.4~~$13.2 million in unrecognized tax benefits related to state exposures may be necessary in the next twelve months however management does not expect the change to have a significant impact on the results of operations or the financial position of the Company.

We regularly evaluate valuation allowances established for deferred tax assets for which future realization is uncertain. We will continue to monitor all available evidence related to the net deferred tax assets that may change the most recent assessment, including events that have occurred or are anticipated to occur. We continue to maintain a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets of ~~$1,071.0~~$1,681.4 million and ~~$1,091.4~~$1,673.1 million, which relates to federal and

Pharmacy same store sales increased by 0.1% for the thirteen week period ended November 30, 2019 compared to an increase of 3.1% in the thirteen week period ended December 1, 2018. The increase in the current period is due to the 2.8% 30-day equivalent increase in same store prescription count, partially offset by lower reimbursement rates.

Front-end same store sales decreased 0.5% during the thirteen week period ended November 30, 2019 compared to a decrease of 1.5% during the thirteen week period ended December 1, 2018. Front-end same store sales, excluding cigarettes and tobacco (including e-cigarettes and vape products which we discontinued), increased 1.0% during the thirteen week period ended November 30, 2019, driven by strong results in core categories such as upper respiratory, beverages, pain care and vitamins.

Gross profit decreased $66.9 million for the thirty-nine week period ended November 30, 2019 compared to the thirty-nine week period ended December 1, 2018. Pharmacy gross profit was negatively impacted by lower reimbursement rates that was partially offset by generic cost savingshigher sales volume and an increase in same store prescription count, ~~growth. A portion~~partially offset by a restructuring charge of ~~the decline in~~$25.8 million to establish an inventory reserve on product lines we are exiting and will no longer carry as part of our rebranding initiative, lower pharmacy reimbursement rates ~~was caused by adjusting our estimate for retroactive rate adjustments expected from a state Medicaid agency~~ and a reimbursement rate adjustment resulting from the finalization of a contract with one of our payors.

The decline in gross margin as a percentage of revenues is due primarily to higher markdowns related to increased sales volume to our wellness+ members and higher discounts on front-end merchandise provided to our associates in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Gross margin was 27.0% of sales for the thirty-nine week period ended November 30, 2019 compared to 27.2% of sales for the thirty-nine week period ended December 1, 2018. The reduction in gross margin for the thirty-nine week period was due primarily to reimbursement rate declines that we were not able to offset with generic cost savings.

We use the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method of inventory valuation, which is estimated on a quarterly basis and is finalized at year end when inflation rates and inventory levels are final. Therefore, LIFO costs for interim period financial statements are estimated.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

We have two primary sources of liquidity: (i) cash provided by operating activities and (ii) borrowings under ~~our New~~the Existing Facilities. Our principal uses of cash are to provide working capital for operations, to service our obligations to pay interest and principal on debt and to fund capital expenditures. Total liquidity as of ~~November~~May 30, ~~2019~~2020 was ~~$1,544.3~~$1,887.3 million, which consisted of revolver borrowing capacity of ~~$1,481.8~~$1,705.1 million and invested cash of ~~$62.5~~$182.2 million.

Credit Facilities

On December 20, 2018, we entered into a ~~new~~ senior secured credit agreement (as amended by the First Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of January 6, 2020, the “Credit Agreement”), consisting of a ~~new~~ $2.7 billion senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (“Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility”) and a ~~new~~ $450.0 million “first-in, last out” senior secured term loan facility (“Senior Secured Term ~~Loan”) (collectively~~Loan,” and together with the ~~“New~~Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, collectively, the “Existing Facilities”). ~~Proceeds~~We used proceeds from the ~~New~~Existing Facilities ~~were used~~ to refinance our prior $2.7 billion ~~Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Facility due January 2020~~existing credit agreement (the “Old Facility”~~, the New Facilities and the Old Facility are collectively referred to herein as the “Facilities”~~). The ~~New~~Existing Facilities extend our debt maturity profile and provide additional

~~Table~~ liquidity. Borrowings under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum between LIBOR plus 1.25% and LIBOR plus 1.75% based upon the Average ABL Availability (as defined in the Credit Agreement). Borrowings under the Senior Secured Term Loan bear interest at a rate per annum of ~~Contents~~

~~liquidity.~~LIBOR plus 3.00%. We are required to pay fees between 0.250% and 0.375% per annum on the daily unused amount of the commitments under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, depending on Average ABL Availability. The ~~New~~Existing Facilities mature inon December 20, 2023, subject to an earlier maturity on December 31, 2022 if we have not repaid or refinanced our existing 6.125% Notes prior to such date. ~~It is~~We have been engaged in efforts to refinance our ~~intention~~existing 6.125% Notes and we intend to repay or refinance ~~our existing 6.125% Notes~~any of such outstanding notes prior to the early maturity becoming ~~effective.~~ effective, although we cannot assure you what impact the recent disruption in the financial markets will have on any such efforts.

Our borrowing capacity under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility will bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 125 to 175 basis points (or an alternate base rate plus 25 to 75 basis points), depending on availability under the revolving facility. Our new Senior Secured Term Loan will bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 300 basis points (or an alternate base rate plus 200 basis points).

~~Our ability to borrow under our New Facilities~~ is based upon a specified borrowing base consisting of accounts receivable, inventory and prescription files. At ~~November~~May 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we had ~~$1,585.0~~approximately $1,342.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the ~~New~~Existing Facilities and had letters of credit outstanding against the ~~New Facilities~~Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility of ~~$83.2~~approximately $102.9 million, which resulted in additional borrowing capacity under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility of ~~$1,481.8~~$1,705.1 million. If at any time the total credit exposure outstanding under ~~our New~~the Existing Facilities and the principal amount of our other senior obligations exceed the borrowing base, we ~~are~~will be required to make certain other mandatory prepayments to eliminate such shortfall.

The ~~New Facilities restrict~~Credit Agreement restricts us and all of our subsidiaries, including the subsidiaries that guarantee our obligations under the ~~New~~Existing Facilities, the secured guaranteed notes and unsecured guaranteed notes ~~(the~~(collectively, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) from accumulating cash on hand in excess of $200.0 million at any time when revolving loans are outstanding (not including cash located in our store and lockbox deposit accounts and cash necessary to cover our current liabilities). The ~~New Facilities~~Credit Agreement also ~~state~~states that if at any time (other than following the exercise of remedies or acceleration of any senior obligations or second priority debt and receipt of a triggering notice by the senior collateral agent from a representative of the senior obligations or the second priority debt) either (i) an event of default exists under ~~our New~~the Existing Facilities or (ii) the sum of ~~revolver availability~~our borrowing capacity under our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and certain amounts held on deposit with the senior collateral agent in a concentration account is less than $275.0 million for three consecutive business days or less than or equal to $200.0 million on any day (a “cash sweep period”), the funds in our deposit accounts will be swept to a concentration account with the senior collateral agent and will be applied first to repay outstanding revolving loans under the ~~New~~Existing Facilities, and then held as collateral for the senior obligations until such cash sweep period is rescinded pursuant to the terms of ~~our New~~the Existing Facilities.

Our obligations under the Existing Facilities and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations under the related guarantees are secured by (i) a first-priority lien on all of the Subsidiary Guarantors’ cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventory, prescription files (including eligible script lists), intellectual property (prior to the repayment of the Senior Secured Term Loan) and certain other assets arising therefrom or related thereto (including substantially all of

their deposit accounts, collectively, the “ABL priority collateral”) and (ii) a second-priority lien on all of the Subsidiary Guarantors’ equipment, fixtures, investment property (other than equity interests in subsidiaries), intellectual property (following the repayment of the Senior Secured Term Loan) and all other assets that do not constitute ABL priority collateral, in each case, subject to customary exceptions and limitations.

The ~~New Facilities allow~~Credit Agreement allows us to have outstanding, at any time, up to an aggregate principal amount of $1.5 billion in secured second priority debt, split-priority ~~term loan~~ debt, unsecured debt and disqualified preferred stock in addition to borrowings under the ~~New~~Existing Facilities and other existing indebtedness, provided that not in excess of $750.0 million of such secured second priority debt, split-priority ~~term loan~~ debt, unsecured debt and disqualified preferred stock shall mature or require scheduled payments of principal prior to 90 days after the latest ~~of (i) the fifth anniversary of the effectiveness of the New Facilities and (ii) the latest~~ maturity date of any Term Loan or Other Revolving Commitment (each as defined in the ~~New Facilities)~~Credit Agreement) (excluding bridge facilities allowing extensions on customary terms to at least the date that is 90 days after such date). Subject to the limitations described in ~~clauses (i) and (ii) of~~ the immediately preceding sentence, the ~~New Facilities~~Credit Agreement additionally ~~allow~~allows us to issue or incur an unlimited amount of unsecured debt and disqualified preferred stock so long as a Financial Covenant Effectiveness Period (as defined in the ~~New Facilities)~~Credit Agreement) is not in effect; provided, however, that certain of our other outstanding indebtedness limits the amount of unsecured debt that can be incurred if certain interest coverage levels are not met at the time of incurrence or other exemptions are not available. The ~~New Facilities~~Credit Agreement also ~~contain~~contains certain restrictions on the amount of secured first priority debt we are able to incur. The ~~New Facilities~~Credit Agreement also ~~allow~~allows for the voluntary repurchase of any debt or other convertible debt, so long as the ~~New~~Existing Facilities are not in default and we maintain availability under our revolver of more than $365.0 million.

The ~~New Facilities have~~Credit Agreement has a financial covenant that requires us to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00 to 1.00 (i) on any date on which availability under the ~~revolver~~Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility is less than $200.0 million or (ii) on the third consecutive business day on which availability under the ~~revolver~~Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility is less than $250.0 million and, in each case, ending on and excluding the first day thereafter, if any, which is the 30th consecutive calendar day on which availability under the revolver is equal to or greater than $250.0 million. As of ~~November~~May 30, ~~2019, we had availability under our New Facilities of $1,481.8 million,~~2020, our fixed charge coverage ratio was greater than 1.00 to 1.00, and we were in compliance with the ~~New Facilities’~~Credit Agreement’s financial covenant. The ~~New Facilities~~Credit Agreement also ~~contain~~contains covenants which place restrictions on the incurrence of debt, the payments of dividends, the making of investments, sale of assets, mergers and acquisitions and the granting of liens.

The ~~New Facilities provide~~Credit Agreement provides for customary events of default including nonpayment, misrepresentation, breach of covenants and bankruptcy. It is also an event of default if we fail to make any required payment on debt having a principal amount in excess of $50.0 million or any event occurs that enables, or which with the giving of notice or the

lapse of time would enable, the holder of such debt to accelerate the maturity or require the repayment repurchase, redemption or defeasance of such debt.

The ~~indenture~~indentures that ~~governs~~govern our guaranteed unsecured notes ~~contains~~and our guaranteed secured notes contain restrictions on the amount of additional secured and unsecured debt that we may incur. As of ~~November~~May 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we had the ability to (i) draw the full amount under our revolving credit facility, or (ii) incur additional secured ~~debt, and (iii)~~debt. In addition, we have the ability to enter into certain sale and leaseback transactions. The ability to issue additional unsecured debt under the indenture is generally governed by an interest coverage ratio test. As of ~~November~~May 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we had the ability to issue additional secured and unsecured debt under the indentures governing our unguaranteed unsecured notes.

Guarantor Summarized Financial Information

Certain of our subsidiaries, which are listed on Exhibit 22 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, have guaranteed our obligations under the 6.125% Notes and the 7.500% Notes (collectively, the "Guaranteed Notes"). As discussed in Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements, the Guaranteed Notes were issued by us, as the parent company, and are guaranteed by substantially all of the parent company’s consolidated subsidiaries (the “guarantors” or “Subsidiary Guarantors”) except for EIC (the “non-guarantor”). The parent company and guarantors are referred to as the “obligor group”. The Subsidiary Guarantors fully and unconditionally and jointly and severally guarantee the Guaranteed Notes. The 6.125% Notes and the obligations under the related guarantees are unsecured. The 7.500% Notes and the obligations under the related guarantees are secured by (i) a first-priority lien on all of the Subsidiary Guarantors’

Table of Contents

equipment, fixtures, investment property (other than equity interests in subsidiaries), intellectual property (following the repayment of the Senior Secured Term Loan) and other collateral to the extent it does not constitute ABL priority collateral (as defined below), and (ii) a second-priority lien on all of the Subsidiary Guarantors’ cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, payment intangibles, inventory, prescription files (including eligible script lists) and, intellectual property (prior to the repayment of the Senior Secured Term Loan) (collectively, the “ABL priority collateral”), which, in each case, also secure the Existing Facilities.

Under certain circumstances, subsidiaries may be released from their guarantees without consent of the note holders. Our subsidiaries conduct substantially all of our operations and have significant liabilities, including trade payables. If the subsidiary guarantees are invalid or unenforceable or are limited by fraudulent conveyance or other laws, the registered debt will be structurally subordinated to the substantial liabilities of our subsidiaries.

Condensed Combined Financial Information

The following tables include summarized financial information of the obligor group. Investments in and the equity in the earnings of EIC, which is not a member of the obligor group, have been excluded. The summarized financial information of the obligor group is presented on a combined basis with intercompany balances and transactions between entities in the obligor group eliminated.

Future Liquidity

We are highly leveraged. Our high level of indebtedness could: (i) limit our ability to obtain additional financing; (ii) limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry; (iii) place us at a competitive disadvantage relative to our competitors with less debt; (iv) render us more vulnerable to general adverse economic and industry ~~conditions;~~conditions, including those resulting from COVID-19; and (v) require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow to service our debt. Based upon our current levels of operations, we believe that cash flow from operations together with available borrowings under the revolver and other sources of liquidity will be

Table of Contents

adequate to meet our requirements for working capital, debt service and capital expenditures at least for the next twelve months. Based on our liquidity position, which

~~Table of Contents~~

we expect to remain strong, we do not expect to be subject to the minimum fixed charge covenant in ~~our New~~the Existing Facilities in the next twelve months. We will continue to assess our liquidity position and potential sources of supplemental liquidity in light of our operating performance, and other relevant circumstances, and we may evaluate alternative sources of liquidity, including further opportunities related to ~~the~~any receivable due to us from ~~CMS.~~CMS, sale and leaseback transactions, and other transactions to optimize our asset base. From time to time, we may seek additional deleveraging or refinancing transactions, including entering into transactions to exchange debt for shares of common stock or other debt securities (including additional secured debt), issuance of equity (including preferred stock and convertible securities), repurchase or redemption of outstanding indebtedness, including our offer to exchange up to $750.0 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 6.125% Notes as announced on June 25, 2020, or seek to refinance our outstanding debt (including ~~our~~the Existing Facilities) or may otherwise seek transactions to reduce interest expense and extend debt maturities. Any of these transactions could impact our financial results. We may also use ~~additional~~ Sale proceeds for one or more of these purposes in accordance with our outstanding agreements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

For a description of the critical accounting policies that require the use of significant judgments and estimates by management, refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Continuing Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” included in our Fiscal ~~2019~~2020 10-K, which we filed with the SEC on April ~~25, 2019, and the First Quarter 2020 10-Q, which we filed on July 11, 2019.~~

Effective March 3, 2019, the Company adopted the Lease Standard. See the Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements section of Note 1 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a detailed discussion of the adoption of this new lease standard.27, 2020.

Factors Affecting Our Future Prospects

For a discussion of risks related to our financial condition, operations and industry, refer to ~~“Risk Factors” and~~ “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Continuing Operations” included herein and in our Fiscal ~~2019 10-K.~~2020 10-K, “Part I – Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Fiscal 2020 10-K and “Part II – Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Diluted Share and Other Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP measures, such as “Adjusted EBITDA”, in assessing our operating performance. We believe the non-GAAP measures serve as an appropriate measure in evaluating the performance of our business. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) excluding the impact of income taxes, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, LIFO adjustments (which removes the entire impact of LIFO, and effectively reflects the results as if we were on a FIFO inventory basis), charges or credits for facility closing and impairment, goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, inventory write-downs related to store closings, gains or losses on debt retirements, the WBA merger termination fee, and other items (including stock-based compensation expense, merger and acquisition-related costs, a non-recurring litigation settlement (as further discussed below), severance, restructuring-related costs and costs related to facility closures and gain or loss on sale of assets). We reference this particular non-GAAP financial measure frequently in our decision-making because it provides supplemental information that facilitates internal comparisons to the historical periods and external comparisons to competitors. In addition, incentive compensation is primarily based on Adjusted EBITDA and we base certain of our forward-looking estimates on Adjusted EBITDA to facilitate quantification of planned business activities and enhance subsequent follow-up with comparisons of actual to planned Adjusted EBITDA.

~~(b)~~

During fiscal 2019, we revised our definition of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income per Diluted Share to exclude the impact of all amortization expense rather than only the impact of amortization expense related to the EnvisionRx intangible assets. Consequently, we have updated the Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income per Diluted Share for the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended December 1, 2018 to be reflective of our modified definition.

In addition to Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net (Loss) Income and Adjusted Net (Loss) Income per Diluted Share, we occasionally refer to several other Non-GAAP measures, on a less frequent basis, in order to describe certain components of our business and how we utilize them to describe our results. These measures include but are not limited to Adjusted EBITDA Gross Margin and Gross Profit (gross margin/gross profit excluding non-Adjusted EBITDA items), Adjusted EBITDA SG&A (SG&A expenses excluding non-Adjusted EBITDA items), FIFO Gross Margin and FIFO Gross Profit (gross margin/gross profit before LIFO charges), and Free Cash Flow (Adjusted EBITDA less cash paid for interest, rent on closed stores, capital expenditures, acquisition costs and the change in working capital).

We include these non-GAAP financial measures in our earnings announcements in order to provide transparency to our investors and enable investors to better compare our operating performance with the operating performance of our competitors including with those of our competitors having different capital structures. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Diluted Share or other non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation from, and are not intended to represent an alternative measure of, operating results or of cash flows from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our definition of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measurements reported by other companies.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our future earnings, cash flow and fair values relevant to financial instruments are dependent upon prevalent market rates. Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. Our major market

~~Table of Contents~~

risk exposure is changing interest rates. Increases in interest rates would increase our interest expense. We enter into debt obligations to support capital expenditures, acquisitions, working capital needs and general corporate purposes. Our policy is to manage interest rates through the use of a combination of variable-rate credit facilities, fixed-rate long-term obligations and derivative transactions.

The table below provides information about our financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. The table presents principal payments and the related weighted average interest rates by expected maturity dates as of ~~November~~May 30, ~~2019~~2020 and assumes that we have ~~not~~ repaid or refinanced our existing 6.125% Notes prior to December 31, 2022.

Our ability to satisfy interest payment obligations on our outstanding debt will depend largely on our future performance, which, in turn, is subject to prevailing economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors beyond our control. If we do not have sufficient cash flow to service our interest payment obligations on our outstanding indebtedness and if we cannot borrow or obtain equity financing to satisfy those obligations, our business and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. We cannot be assured that any replacement borrowing or equity financing could be successfully completed.

The interest rate on our variable rate borrowings, which include our revolving credit facility and our term loan facility, are based on LIBOR. If the market rates of interest for LIBOR changed by 100 basis points as of ~~November~~May 30, ~~2019,~~2020, our annual interest expense would change by approximately ~~$15.9~~$13.4 million. ~~Our annual interest expense would change by approximately $15.9 million when considering the benefit of the Cap which became effective on March 21, 2019.~~

A change in interest rates does not have an impact upon our future earnings and cash flow for fixed-rate debt instruments. As fixed-rate debt matures, however, and if additional debt is acquired to fund the debt repayment, future earnings and cash flow may be affected by changes in interest rates. This effect would be realized in the periods subsequent to the periods when the debt matures. Increases in interest rates would also impact our ability to refinance existing maturities on favorable terms.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

The information in response to this item is incorporated herein by reference to Note ~~16,~~15, Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees, of the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

~~In addition to the information set forth~~The following risk factor should be read in ~~this Quarterly Report, you should carefully consider the~~conjunction with our risk factors discussed in ~~Part~~“Part I — Item ~~1A, “Risk~~1A. Risk Factors” in our Fiscal ~~2019~~2020 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. Except as set forth below, the risk factors described in our Fiscal 2020 10-K have not materially changed.

Widespread health developments, including the global COVID-19 pandemic, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are closely monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business and the markets in which we have stores or otherwise operate. This pandemic, as well as the reality or fear of any other adverse public health developments, has impacted and could further adversely and materially affect, among other things, our workforce, operations, stores, and supply chain, and the operations of our customers, suppliers and business partners. The pandemic has also impacted purchasing decisions of our customers. Separately, a limited number of stores have been damaged or have been required to close as a result of recent civil unrest. The local, national and international response to the virus is quickly developing, fluid and uncertain. Responses have included voluntary, and in some cases, mandatory quarantines as well as shut downs and other restrictions on travel and commercial, social, medical and other activities, and declarations of emergencies. Such measures have contributed to the sudden increase in the unemployment rate and changes in customer spending. Any such negative impact could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial conditions and results of operations.

In response to the spread of COVID-19, we have modified certain of our business practices (including store hours and access, employee travel, employee work locations, and cancellation of physical participation in meetings, events and conferences), and we may take further actions as may be required by government authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our associates, customers, suppliers and business partners. There is no certainty that such measures will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by the virus, and our ability to perform critical functions could be negatively impacted. Further, the initiatives we have implemented to slow and/or reduce the impact of COVID-19 and the related support programs we have put in place for our associates and customers have in some instances, increased our operating expenses and reduced the efficiency of our operations. There can be no assurance that a continued effect of COVID-19 will not impact the measures we have taken to reduce costs.

We have incurred additional costs to ensure we meet the safety and needs of our associates and customers, including the installation of Plexiglas shields at pharmacy and front-end counters to provide additional protection, providing additional cleaning materials for our stores and other facilities, and focusing on home delivery and digital services. In addition, we temporarily enhanced certain employee benefits and compensation for those on the front-line. We expect to continue to incur additional costs, which may be significant, as we continue to implement operational changes in response to this pandemic.

COVID-19 may also cause supply chain disruption which could result in higher supply chain costs to replenish inventory in our stores and distribution centers. In addition, we may experience shortages in our generic drug supplies due to replenishment delays resulting from COVID-19, which could result in the substitution of generic drugs with brand drugs, which generally have a lower profit margin. Furthermore, we have experienced and may continue to experience restricted stock availability in a number of categories, which may cause us to change our purchasing decisions across many categories, and we cannot assure you whether these delays or difficulty sourcing certain products will continue, which could negatively impact us.

Table of Contents

COVID-19 has also significantly impacted some of our counterparties and may continue to do so in the future. For example, GNC, with whom we have a strategic alliance under which we have opened over 1,623 GNC stores within Rite Aid stores as of February 29, 2020 and have a contractual commitment to open at least 99 additional GNC stores within Rite Aid stores by December 2021, recently filed for bankruptcy. There can be no assurance as to what the impact of GNC’s bankruptcy will be on our relationship with GNC.

Further, our management is focused on mitigating COVID-19, which has required and will continue to require, a large investment of time and resources across the company and may delay other value added services. COVID-19 or any other adverse public health developments could inhibit or delay our ability to execute our strategic initiatives, including, without limitation, (i) improving our pharmacy benefit management business, (ii) redefining the role of our pharmacists, including bringing pharmacists front and center and out from behind the counter, (iii) updating our retail and digital experience; (iv) the roll-out of our future store concept, merchandising changes and rebranding efforts; and (v) our plan to increase the sales volume and profitability of our existing brands. Additionally, the impact of COVID-19 on our business may be impacted by the costs of treatment of COVID-19, unemployment, and the related effects on customer insurance coverage caused by governmental actions to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 or other adverse public health developments, including reduced demand for acute medication. In response to COVID-19, we have announced the deferral of our planned capital expenditures.

The extent to which COVID-19 may impact our business depends on numerous evolving factors, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted and are outside of our control, including new information which may quickly emerge concerning the severity of the virus, the scope of the outbreak and the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact and the disruption, volatility in the global capital markets, which may increase the cost of capital and adversely impact our access to capital and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume, among others. As a result, the impact on our financial and operating results cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, but the impact could be material. The continued impact of COVID-19 resulted in us withdrawing our previously issued outlook for fiscal 2021 when we released earnings on June 25, 2020.
